It was Cao Xiaosi's departure that forced the hesitant Zhao Yang to make a decision immediately: "Senior, senior, please wait!"
"What..." Cao Xiaosi turned around to look at Zhao Yang, who had caught up with him, seemingly surprised. He showed no sign that he had come specifically to find Zhao Yang.
“Senior, I actually have nothing to do today. I was just thinking that I am unworthy to have tea with you,” Zhao Yang said excitedly, wanting to rub his hands together, but then he realized that his hands were full of things. “But I just realized that your invitation is an honor, and it would be ungrateful of me to refuse out of shame, so…”
"Hahaha, you're quite honest, kid. Good, I like your honesty. Let's go." Cao Xiaosi hooked his long arm around Zhao Yang's shoulder and led him into a quiet, upscale teahouse with a roguish air.
The teahouse was exquisitely furnished, decorated with spiritual plants and flowers, and the air was filled with the enticing aroma of spiritual tea.
Even a brief stop in such a place can bring considerable benefits; the entrance fee alone is a low-grade spirit stone.
A low-level disciple like Zhao Yang would never normally be willing to come to such a place to enjoy himself.
Zhao Yang was both excited and envious to be brought here by Cao Xiaosi today, and he longed to be able to freely enter and leave such a place someday.
His little bit of inner turmoil vanished as a result.
The local deity shouldn't be leaving anytime soon; you'll see him whether you go home early or late.
However, this big shot from the Sixth Peak is not someone you can meet every day.
"Come, junior brother, sit down," Cao Xiaosi said, gesturing for Zhao Yang to sit opposite him. He then turned to the waiter who followed him into the private room and said, "Bring me a pot of your best tea, and whatever other good things you have to go with it. If you serve me well, I'll reward you handsomely."
"Okay!"
The waiter received a low-grade spirit stone as a reward from Cao Xiaosi and turned to leave with great enthusiasm.
Before long, a pot of fine spiritual tea and several plates of sweet spiritual fruits were served.
Cao Xiaosi warmly invited Zhao Yang to eat and drink.
The spiritual tea, imbued with pure and potent spiritual energy, along with the sweet and delicious spiritual fruit that melted in his mouth, left Zhao Yang feeling completely refreshed and invigorated.
When he was in a good mood, his defenses were lowered. In addition, he wanted to please Cao Xiaosi, so he answered all of Cao Xiaosi's questions. He even drew inferences from one instance to another. As long as Cao Xiaosi showed the slightest interest, he would tell him everything he knew.
Cao Xiaosi had a fairly good understanding of the daily lives of the outer disciples.
Although outer disciples are not as highly regarded as inner disciples, they are still an extremely important part of the Dan Sect. Therefore, outer disciples have to follow many more rules than inner disciples.
Therefore, it is quite unusual that Yang Suzhi disappeared for several days without anyone inquiring about her.
Seeing Zhao Yang getting into the conversation, Cao Xiaosi had a sudden inspiration and mysteriously transmitted a message to him through telepathy: "Junior Brother, we have a very pleasant conversation today, which means we are destined to meet. In that case, I will show you a way out."
"Then thank you very much, senior." Zhao Yang's eyes lit up, and he excitedly stood up and bowed to Cao Xiaosi.
“Recently, things haven’t been peaceful inside or outside the sect. I’m sure you outer disciples have heard about it. Our Sixth Peak was only recently established, and we are far from having enough manpower. So, both the Peak Master and the Acting Sect Master are planning to recruit more people. Because of the special nature of the Sixth Peak, cultivation level is not a strict requirement for these newly recruited disciples.”
