Chapter 54: Treatment

"Ah, so you're just an inner disciple!" Liang Xiao's expression froze slightly, as if he felt unwillingness in his heart. He touched the prestigious purple robe that represented his identity as an inner disciple, opened his mouth, but couldn't find any words to refute.

This kind of reaction was within Yu Fan's expectations. He comforted (made promises) in a gentle voice, "Liang Xiao, nephew, don't aim too high. Among the core disciples in the sect, even those at the lowest level of Qi Refining Late Stage are not few in number. With your strength at the sixth level of Qi Refining, it's just right for you to stay in the inner sect."

"When you make further progress in your cultivation, and the Elder Bai Jie returns in a dominant manner, your identity as a core disciple will be easily obtained. What difficulties will there be?"

"You should know that having a Gold Core ancestor like me as your master in the Demon Sect is a rare and wonderful thing!"

Upon hearing this, Liang Xiao seemed to relax and became sincerely convinced.

"Now that this matter is settled, there are still many secular matters that need to be dealt with in the inner sect, so I won't stay any longer."

Yu Fan nodded at Liang Xiao, took out a spiritual boat from the wide sleeve of his Confucian robe, activated his mana, and quickly flew away.

"If my Flying Zombie were to be openly revealed, it would definitely attract the attention of many strong cultivators in the sect. So, the ownership of her absolutely cannot be in the hands of a Qi Refining stage disciple."

"If someone wants to snatch her? Sorry, my shameless Gold Core master has already snatched her in advance!"

"Now I'm just a foolish disciple who has been kept in the dark and has become a pitiful zombie furnace. It doesn't matter at all and won't attract much attention."

"But as time goes by, when someone notices, I'm afraid my strength will have greatly increased and I won't be someone who can be easily controlled."

Liang Xiao silently reviewed the whole process in his mind, confirming that there were no loopholes, and his gaze remained fixed on Yu Fan's flying boat as it flew further away.

Then he waved his hand and put the purple lacquered wooden box into his spatial Law Weapon, a hint of relief flashing in his eyes.

You should know that acting is really hard work, not inferior to fighting a battle!

"Liang... Xiao nephew, I didn't expect you to have such an opportunity. It really makes this old man envy you. I saw your extraordinary potential at first sight, and now it has been proven."

An outer sect elder stationed at the Little Ghost Hall walked over, his withered hand lightly stroking his beard, with a kind and benevolent expression.

Liang Xiao repeatedly expressed his luck, but in his heart, he sneered. This old guy probably doesn't even remember who I am.

"Liang senior brother, Liang senior brother! Do you still remember me? When we were studying the Little Ghost Hall's techniques, I sat behind you!"

After the outer sect elder left, a cunning-looking male disciple quickly squeezed his way up, his face full of enthusiasm, as if he was very familiar with Liang Xiao.

"You idiot, Du Xiaochang, Liang senior brother always liked to sit in the back row. You, on the other hand, always squeezed in next to the female disciples in the front row. How could you have any relationship with Liang senior brother!"

Another tall and strong male disciple glared at him with his big eyes, ruthlessly exposing the truth, then he twisted his arm and bumped into Du Xiaochang, causing him to stumble.

"I, Ding Fu, am Liang senior brother's loyal supporter. I have long felt that Senior Brother Liang Xiao has a majestic aura and extraordinary heroism. If Senior Brother doesn't mind, I, Ding Fu, am willing to be your big brother and serve you faithfully, doing whatever you need!"

Ding Fu innocently rubbed his head and smiled foolishly at Liang Xiao.

"You big and clumsy guys, how could Liang senior brother want you fools to serve him? We sisters have admired Senior Brother Liang Xiao for a long time and are willing to stay by his side and cultivate together."

Just then, accompanied by a charming tone, two female disciples with graceful steps approached Liang Xiao.

Liang Xiao looked up and saw that they were the most beautiful sisters in this year's Little Ghost Hall. The older sister was named Lu Luan, and the younger sister was named Lu Feng.

The two of them looked almost identical, as they were twins.

They both had decent three spiritual roots, and what was even more rare was their tall stature, long legs, and beautiful appearance. Their popularity even surpassed Yan Xiaodie.

However, I have always looked down on disciples with mediocre aptitude and have never paid attention to the Four Spiritual Roots before.

I even disdainfully ignore other admirers like Yan Xiaodie.

But now, the two girls are walking quickly towards me, showing no signs of being outsiders. Each of them is hugging my arms, wanting to be close to me in every way possible.

At the same time, they subtly use their eyes filled with killing intent to drive away the other female disciples who are approaching.

But this is not enough. There are still a few female disciples who grit their teeth and approach, puffing up their chests and calling me, Senior Liang, with seductive eyes. Secretly, they are also competing with the Lu sisters.

For a while, it becomes lively and bustling with activity.

I squint my eyes slightly, seemingly intoxicated by the attention, but in reality, I am secretly puzzled.

It's one thing for the outer sect elders to come and exchange pleasantries, but the attitude of these disciples is unusual. Some of them are overly enthusiastic.

It doesn't seem like they are simply trying to curry favor, but more like they are competing for some limited resources.

As Liang Xiao and the surrounding preparatory disciples exchange pleasantries for a while, he finally understands what is going on.

Inner sect disciples wear purple robes and have a much higher status than outer sect disciples.

Not only are they not responsible for many sect chores, but it is said that they have dedicated single-person courtyards for cultivation in the inner sect residence.

Among them, each inner sect disciple has four to five spots for attendants to take care of house cleaning, personal Spirit Fields, and running errands.

Since they are going to serve and accompany, they will naturally enter the inner sect with Liang Xiao.

As the saying goes, when one person achieves the Dao, chickens and dogs ascend to heaven.

Although the attendants around inner sect disciples do not have official positions, their actual treatment is even better than that of ordinary outer sect disciples.

It's no wonder these preparatory disciples are desperately trying to please him.

After understanding this, Liang Xiao doesn't feel disgusted and directly rejects them. Because he is not from a cultivation family, he doesn't have attendants arranged by his family. It is most suitable for him to select a few from these preparatory disciples.

This is a mutually beneficial arrangement.

So Liang Xiao subtly conveys the message to the people around him that he is willing to recruit attendants, but he needs some time to consider.

Perhaps before or after the Little Ghost Hall competition, he will select the more "sincere" disciples.

This makes many preparatory disciples around him excited, their eyes becoming even more eager as they think about performing well in the competition.

The Little Ghost Hall competition will take place in two days.

This competition, which Liang Xiao should have prepared for, is coincidentally unrelated to him.

Even two days later, he will be invited by an outer sect elder to participate in the competition as an inner sect disciple.

In just one day, he went from being cannon fodder fighting on the battlefield to a high-ranking VIP who observes and comments!

In the eyes of others, it's like a dream.

"Alright, junior brothers and sisters, it's getting late. I'm a bit tired. Let's meet again in two days during the competition. I wish you all the best and promotion to the outer sect!"

Liang Xiao quickly adapts to his new identity and dismisses many preparatory disciples, heading towards the direction of the inner sect.

He needs to go and see the so-called inner sect residence and also take over his own single-person courtyard.
