A ruthless bandit from the celestial realm, he began his cultivation journey after kidnapping the Em

Before long, the girl in the pink dress had gathered twenty people.

After counting the number of people, she waved her little hand...

"Come with me..."

After saying that, she started walking up the mountain, taking slow steps, one step at a time.

Ye Chen immediately followed, afraid of missing this opportunity to enter the Qingyun Sect.

The others in the team also failed the spiritual root test. After all, if they had spiritual roots, they would definitely have become outer disciples. No one would be foolish enough to become a menial servant.

The path up the mountain is steep and long, like climbing a ladder to heaven, and it is even farther than the distance from the foot of the mountain to the mountain gate.

Apart from the girl in the pink dress and Ye Chen, everyone else in the group was panting heavily, drenched in sweat, and some even had legs so weak they could barely walk...

They are, after all, just ordinary mortals, and it's normal for them to feel tired climbing such high mountains.

The girl in the pink dress was clearly a cultivator. She circulated her spiritual energy into her legs, making her walk light and agile without feeling tired at all.

She glanced back at Ye Chen, who was only slightly out of breath, a strange look flashing across her lovely face, and she was somewhat surprised.

"Aren't you tired?" Lin Ningxue couldn't help but ask.

Ye Chen shrugged calmly.

"What's so tiring about this? If you can't even climb a short mountain path, aren't you just useless?"

The rest of the group: ? ? ?

Upon hearing this, the disciples in the group, who were exhausted to the bone, looked at Ye Chen with a strange expression...

Listen to this, is this even human language?

How can this kid be so good at pretending?

He was about to curse, but seeing that Ye Chen didn't seem tired at all, he swallowed his words.

This kid seems to have some skill...

Lin Ningxue looked at Ye Chen with surprise, feeling puzzled as well.

If she hadn't had spiritual energy to support her, she would have collapsed from exhaustion long ago climbing such a high mountain. The other person was just a mortal, yet possessed such a powerful physique...

It's a pity this kid doesn't have spiritual roots, otherwise he would definitely achieve great things if he embarked on cultivation!

Lin Ningxue shook her head, looked away, and continued walking up the mountain.

"Hang in there a little longer, we'll be at the servants' quarters soon..."

Hearing this, everyone was overjoyed. They were finally about to arrive, otherwise they would have been exhausted to death as soon as they joined the Qingyun Sect.

Ye Chen looked around curiously. Not only was this mountain peak towering into the clouds, but the nearby mountains were also higher than one another, with palaces and mansions standing on the connected mountain ranges, stretching endlessly.

These are all Qingyun Sect territory!

He hadn't thought much of it when he looked down from the sky, but now that he was actually there, he realized that the Qingyun Sect was much larger than he had imagined, equivalent to the size of several cities.

"Senior sister, Qingyun Sect is so big, how many disciples does it have?" Ye Chen asked the girl in the pink dress walking in front of him.

Lin Ningxue didn't turn her head, and said calmly as she walked.

"I don't know the exact numbers, but there are over 200,000 outer disciples alone, and fewer inner disciples, probably over 10,000 as well, plus personal disciples, miscellaneous disciples..."

"Two hundred thousand disciples?"

Ye Chen couldn't help but gasp, never expecting that a sect would have so many disciples.

The entire Treasure Bottle Continent is filled with sects and sects; how many cultivators must there be?

How can ordinary people survive in such an environment?

No wonder everyone pursues spiritual cultivation; after all, without cultivation, one is subject to bullying, and no one is willing to accept that...

Ye Chen secretly made up his mind that whether it was to save Qing'er or to avenge his father, he had to become stronger!

"We've arrived. This is the servants' quarters!"

Lin Ningxue's voice came through...

Ye Chen snapped out of his daze, stopped, and looked around.

This was only halfway up the mountain. A grand hall stood in front of it, with many disciples dressed in gray robes going in and out.

Not far away, there was a row of houses with blue tiles, which looked rather simple compared to the magnificent hall in front of them, like a doghouse next to the palace.

From time to time, one could see disciples in gray robes emerging from the houses with blue tiles; these were probably the residences of the menial disciples.

Lin Ningxue turned to look at everyone and said in a deep voice.

"Go register your names and collect your name tags. An officer will assign you tasks later..."

"From now on, everything you need for food, clothing, shelter, and transportation will be here!"

Upon hearing this, everyone immediately responded.

"Yes, thank you, Senior Sister!"

Lin Ningxue nodded slightly, led the person there, and then turned and left.

The group quickly entered the main hall and soon found the registration desk. They gave their names and received a wooden waist tag representing their identity, with their names engraved on it.

Ye Chen glanced at the crudely made waist token in his hand, casually put it into his pocket, and looked around, hoping to find a cultivation technique. He was still in a hurry to save people...

At this moment, a fat man who looked like a manager walked over, raised his head, glanced at everyone, and spoke indifferently.

"You're the new guys, right? You'll be working for me from now on. My surname is Wang, you can just call me Manager Wang..."

"Don't just stand there, come with me now. There's a lot of work to be done in the sect..."

He waved his hand, beckoning Ye Chen and his group to walk out of the hall.

Seeing this, the crowd quickly followed.

As they passed a row of houses with blue tiles, Wang Hao, who was at the front of the group, stopped and pointed to a sign next to him.

"Courtyard No. 1001, you'll all be living here from now on..."

"There are pillows and blankets inside. You can make your own bed when you get back later. Let's get to work now!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Chen turned his head and glanced at it, his brows immediately furrowing.

This dilapidated shack is going to house twenty people? That's even more cramped than a pigsty in a mountain stronghold...

Is this a place where people live?

His days as the bandit king of Black Cloud Village were more comfortable than living here...

Before he could think further, Wang Hao took out a roster from his storage bag and quickly flipped through it.

"Courtyard number 109 on Qinglian Peak needs cleaning. Take a broom and rag and clean it thoroughly now..."

As Wang Hao spoke, he casually pointed to a menial disciple.

"yes..."

The disciple immediately turned and left with a bitter expression.

"Lin Qinshuang, who lives in courtyard number 380 on Xianxia Peak, needs someone to wash her clothes. Go there..."

Wang Hao pointed to Ye Chen in the crowd and said calmly.

"I?"

Ye Chen frowned and pointed to himself in disbelief.

Should he be sent to wash the female disciples' clothes?

"Otherwise what?"

Wang Hao glanced at him expressionlessly, his spiritual energy surging around him, carrying a hint of pressure.

"If you're not willing, then get out of the Qingyun Sect!"

"If you won't do it, plenty of others will!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Chen gritted his teeth, thinking that he had finally managed to infiltrate the Qingyun Sect, and could only temporarily put up with it, letting out a cold snort.

"Fine, I'll go!"

He turned and left, cursing under his breath.

This king wants to see which woman is so shameless that she needs help even to do her laundry...

I'm going to tear you to shreds!
