Chapter 2009 Prime Alchemist Liang

"Here's your items," Elder Shang said as she handed over a storage bag to Alex. "You are supposed to get a shield too, but because we never expected to get 5 disciples in the same year, you'll have to wait a bit so we can make another one." Visjt novelbin(.)com for new updates

Alex took the storage bag and said, "There's no need for that, senior. I received senior Lan's shield. I can just use it."

"But that shield is bonded to him. You won't be able to bond with it in the near future," she said.

"It should take me the same amount of time as it would for the new shield to be made. And then I have to refine that shield too, so there is really no point in making me a new one," Alex said. "What about the defects with the shield? There may be some durability issues with that shield," she said.

Alex shook his head. "I've already checked it thoroughly. There are no such issues," he said. "This is fine."

Elder Shang was a bit weirded out. "If you say so."

Alex took a look into the storage bag to see what was there and found a bunch of stuff that were basic requirements for a cultivator of the sect. There were his few sets of robes, a Blue Silk sect emblem, his nameplate, as well as a few different pills, formations, and talisman.

One of the talismans was precisely the teleportation talisman that Lan Douhan and the others had used when they disappeared from the Poison Fighting sect.

He looked around the items for a bit, but he didn't find the one thing he had been looking forward to.

"What about the conditions, Elder Shang? Did the sect master not provide it yet?" she asked.

"You'll get it soon," she said. "The sect master is still deciding on what sort of conditions to give you, what would be fair to give you. When he is ready, he will call you to swear the oath should take no longer than a day or two."

"I see. I will look forward to it then," Alex said and left the mountain.

He wanted to go back to his store soon, but it appeared he would have to wait a few more days now. 'I guess that's good enough,' he thought. He had to choose one of the Peaks to be under anyway.

He had to now decide who it was he would rather be under. To do that, he needed to learn about all the 15 Peaks.

Alex went over to a library where they kept records on everything and searched for the ones with the information about the peaks.

The information did say that the man lived at the peak, but still, just to be safe, Alex decided to ask someone. It was a good idea to do so anyway, as he probably couldn't arrive in front of someone's house without prior notice.

The disciples could help him with that.

Alex looked around, wondering who he could ask for some help when he noticed a man who was making his way toward the teleportation formation.

"Senior Lan!" Alex called out, rather happy to see Lan Douhan at that place. Lan Douhan gave a look of surprise upon seeing Alex. "Junior Dawnblade?" he called out. "How are you... why are you here?"

"Oh, I am a disciple," Alex said. "Did you not know?"

Lan Douhan couldn't believe his ears. "You're a disciple? What?" he asked.

"Yes," Alex said. "I became on 2 days ago. The elders decided to let me join after testing me."

Lan Douhan still couldn't believe it at all, but that was beyond the point at the moment. If Alex was here, then he had been accepted into the sect.

He couldn't even teleport around freely if that wasn't the case.

"I see. Congratulations," Lan Douhan said. "I knew you would be able to join the sect. Not this early, but hey I'm glad to be wrong."

Alex thanked the man.

"So, what are you doing here?" he asked. "Did you come to meet me?"

"No," Alex said. "I came to see senior Liang Qulong. I need to join someone's Peak apparently, and his Peak seems like the one that will be most compatible with me."

"Oh! You're here to join Elder Liang's Peak?" Lan Douhan said excitedly. "Great. You'll have to wait a while though, is that alright?"

"Wait a while?" Alex asked. "Why?"

"Oh, that's because it will take Elder Liang a few months to come down from the moon."
