Chapter 293 – Promotion
[Ding! Elder Tianyuan's affection level towards you +20! Current affection level: 20 points (Enjoyable conversation)]
[Ding! Grand Elder Tianque's affection level towards you +20! Current affection level: 20 points (Enjoyable conversation)]
[Ding! Elder Tianjian's affection level towards you +10! Current affection level: 10 points (Instant rapport)]
[Ding ding ding!]
Lin Jichen suddenly received affection points from four Grand Elders.
This outcome didn't surprise him.
He had risked his life for the Sword Sect multiple times, facing countless dangers. If he didn't earn the Grand Elders' recognition, that would be strange.
"You've completed your experience task this time. Here is your reward."
Elder Tianqing handed a wooden box to Lin Jichen.
Inside were a supreme-grade Body Refining Elixir, a Mysterious Grade Secret Technique, 1500 low-grade Spirit Stones, and 1000 sect contribution points.
Lin Jichen thought that was it, but unexpectedly, the Grand Elder Tianque also took out a reward.
"You saved so many Sword Sect disciples this time. This is what you deserve."
Lin Jichen took it and saw that it was a token.
It wasn't a contribution token but an identity token.
[Sword Sect · Servant Hall · Deacon Token]: With this token, you can command the disciples of the Servant Hall and have the authority of a Deacon Elder of the Servant Hall.
Lin Jichen couldn't help but laugh and cry when he saw the token.
He didn't expect to get promoted!
This token didn't conflict with his status as a Sect Master's disciple.
But within the sect, a disciple is just a disciple, without real power.
To gain power in the Sword Sect, one must get promoted.
Starting from the lowest position of a Servant Hall Deacon.
It's the smallest official position in the Sword Sect, but it's just the beginning. Lin Jichen would eventually rise to higher levels.
"Thank you, Elder." Lin Jichen accepted the token and expressed his gratitude.
The Grand Elders advised him to rest more and then went back to discuss how to deal with the repeated troubles caused by the Shadow Soul Hall.
Lin Jichen returned to Spirit Beast Mountain with Nangong Yue.@@@@
He didn't dare to go back to the Sword Palace because Nangong Yue would definitely follow him. The Sword Palace was too close to where Leng Feiyan was in seclusion. He felt guilty and feared being discovered.
So he thickened his skin and went back to Spirit Beast Mountain with Nangong Yue.
"Junior brother, this is a nourishing porridge I made for you. Drink it quickly; it might be good for your body."
Lin Jichen didn't refuse and sat down to eat.
However, with the 'happy' memories of Leng Feiyan's cooking, Lin Jichen couldn't help but be a bit skeptical of Nangong Yue's culinary skills.
He hoped it wouldn't be something that would make him lose health after drinking...
But seeing Nangong Yue's expectant face, Lin Jichen had no choice but to brace himself and start eating.
Just after the first taste, Lin Jichen was shocked.
Delicious!
It was really delicious!
Lin Jichen wasn't acting or exaggerating this time.
Panting.
Lin Jichen had already entered a state of devouring the food, and soon the porridge was finished.
"It's so delicious, Senior Sister. Did you really make this?" Lin Jichen still couldn't believe it.
Nangong Yue pouted her red lips and said coquettishly, "Why, can't I make it?"
"No, no, I'm just too surprised. This porridge is really good, better than any porridge I've ever had."
"Really?" Nangong Yue was delighted.
"Really, more real than pearls!" Lin Jichen confirmed.
"Hehe, if you like it, I'll make another bowl for you tonight." Nangong Yue was overjoyed. Since Lin Jichen liked it, she could make it for him every day.
"You haven't told me, Senior Sister, how did you get such good cooking skills?"
Lin Jichen was curious.
Nangong Yue replied, "My mother taught me. When I was with her at the Star-Gazing Spell Sect, she taught me cooking and embroidery, and I learned them all."
Lin Jichen asked curiously, "May I ask, Senior Sister, who is your mother in the Star-Gazing Spell Sect?"
He was familiar with the Star-Gazing Spell Sect. He used to be a disciple there and spent four years in the sect, earning the title of the number one spell cultivator in the Tale of Immortal.
Nangong Yue didn't hide it and said, "My mother is the Grand Elder of the Star-Gazing Spell Sect, Ling Feihong."
What!
Lin Jichen was shocked. Ling Feihong was Jiang Luoyu's master.
Jiang Luoyu was chosen as an Inner Temple disciple in the Star-Gazing Spell Sect because of her exceptional talent.
He didn't expect such a connection between the two.
