Why are the Talismans I Drawn Banned Again?!

Dean Lei Buxiao was growing more and more fond of Jiang Cheng.

He found that this kid, Jiang Cheng, was just like a Muscle Relaxation Talisman.

When Jiang Cheng stood opposite you, as your adversary, he was an incredibly prickly and annoying presence.

But when Jiang Cheng, or a Muscle Relaxation Talisman, was in your hands, or he was your teammate, things tended to go extremely smoothly and were pleasing.

Dean Lei Buxiao had previously regarded Jiang Cheng as someone who “twisted facts to suit his purposes,” seeing him as a kid who was ignorant of societal norms.

Although Dean Lei Buxiao didn’t care about Jiang Cheng’s offenses, he actually had no particular fondness for Jiang Cheng.

However, later when four high-grade Spirit Stones appeared and both parties were preparing to sign a contract, Jiang Cheng suddenly became very friendly and easy to talk to.

He not only took the initiative to state that he would not take advantage of the academy, extending the exclusive period of the Talisman granted to the academy to two years.

Moreover, he creatively proposed to provide the blueprint for drawing the Muscle Relaxation Talisman to Tianheng Sword Cultivation Academy and was willing to jointly apply for the Talisman certification with the Sword Cultivation Academy.

That is to say, the applicant for the Muscle Relaxation Talisman changed from “Jiang Cheng” to “Jiang Cheng and Tianheng Sword Cultivation Academy.”

Although the Muscle Relaxation Talisman had caused a lot of unnecessary trouble for Tianheng Sword Cultivation Academy.

But no one denied the value of the Talisman itself.

Even the third-rank Talisman Master, President Lu Wang of the Wuyue branch of the Tongtian Sect Talisman Master Association, said that the Muscle Relaxation Talisman was a Talisman of significant “pioneering,” “originality,” and “innovativeness.”

It even had the potential to “revolutionize” a part of the Talisman industry.

Facing such a Talisman that might have a significant influence in the Immortal Research Field, Tianheng Sword Cultivation Academy merely paid a very small sum of money and successfully reached a close “joint development” agreement with Jiang Cheng.

Without a doubt, this cooperation was a huge bargain for the Tianheng Sword Cultivation Academy.

If such an “achievement” occurred during the academy’s process of leveling up, it would undoubtedly greatly increase the weight of Tianheng Sword Cultivation Academy in the internal ranking process of the Imperial College.

It made the academy’s already highly probable leveling-up campaign completely “impenetrable”!

In the end, under the witness of Outer Sect Elder Sun Decai, Wuyue Advanced Middle School Principal Yang Lingbao, Talisman Master Association President Lu Wang, and the future Enchantress of the Demonic Tao Lin Yao, Jiang Cheng and Tianheng Sword Cultivation Academy successfully reconciled and signed the Talisman cross-licensing agreement, reaching a strategic partnership on the joint development of the “Muscle Relaxation Talisman.”

Afterward, the Task Hall made detailed records of this bilateral meeting:

Both sides fully exchanged opinions on this cooperation and engaged in cordial and friendly exchanges. Jiang Cheng expressed his willingness to fully respect the academy’s concerns about the serious challenges faced by its teaching order. Dean Lei Buxiao of the Sword Cultivation Academy pointed out that the meeting was beneficial, the development situation of the academy was stable and improving, and Tianheng Sword Cultivation Academy, as a responsible quasi-A-grade academy, should fully understand the concerns and suggestions of the community regarding the future development of the academy…

Jiang Cheng’s uncle, Sun Qing, worked for the government.

To be precise, he was a Chief Clerk in Wuyue City’s Forestry Bureau.

Since the Forestry Bureau was a subordinate agency of the Liang State’s Ministry of Revenue, responsible for the planning and protection of undeveloped mountainous areas in the Liang Kingdom, similar to Earth’s land and resources bureau, Mr. Sun’s main duty was to register and catalogue the resource status of forested mountain areas around Wuyue City.

Recently, with the Liang State Court initiating its quinquennial resource survey, Sun Qing did not need to personally travel through the mountains, but with the collection and recording of data and materials, he too became busy.

But today, Sun Qing encountered something strange.

Jiang Cheng’s homeroom teacher had contacted him through a Talisman, saying that Jiang Cheng had gotten into some trouble and advising him to make a trip to the Task Hall of Tongtian Sect.

This matter was peculiar.

In his eyes, Jiang Cheng was always straightforward and a well-behaved kid.

Moreover, having already completed his college entrance exams and started his vacation, how could Jiang Cheng possibly cause any trouble, let alone have his homeroom teacher notify him?

But since the situation was reported by Jiang Cheng’s homeroom teacher, while unclear, he couldn’t just ignore it.

Jiang Cheng’s parents had entrusted his upbringing to their family, and they even provided a considerable amount of living expenses every month; if something had really happened, Sun Qing had no way of explaining it to Jiang Cheng’s parents.

However, the situation was not clear now, and it was not certain what had happened to Jiang Cheng, so it definitely wasn’t a good idea to spread the word rashly.

Sun Qing quickly finished his work at hand, wrote a leave slip for early departure, waited for his superior to finish a meeting, got approval for his leave, and then drove to the Task Hall.

Sun Qing did not often visit places like the Task Hall, as a civil servant on the government’s payroll had no intersection with an Immortal Sect venue such as the Task Hall, where income was unstable.

In fact, although there were many Immortal Sect powers within Liang Kingdom, the Liang State Court and the Emperor of Liang himself were all trying their best to avoid and counterbalance the influence of the Immortal Sects on Liang Kingdom.

It was an unwritten rule well known within the Liang State Court that civil servants should have minimal contact with Immortal Sect forces, especially specific Immortal Sects.

At the entrance of the Task Hall, as soon as Sun Qing entered, he felt several extraordinary presences.

It seemed there were several Foundation Establishment cultivators stationed there.

A simple Task Hall had such a number of high-level cultivators in residence, demonstrating the unfathomable depth of the Immortal Sects.

Sun Qing sighed with emotion, then quickly walked towards the center of the hall.

Inside the hall, a few Foundation Establishment cultivators stood in a circle, laughing and talking with each other.

Because it was an Immortal Sect venue, Sun Qing was not very familiar with these people, but he felt that one of them looked like Yang Lingbao, the principal of Wuyue Advanced Middle School.

Wuyue Advanced Middle School was under the jurisdiction of the Wuyue Educational Administration Office, which, like Sun Qing’s Forestry Bureau, belonged to the influence of the Liang State Court, hence they had close connections.

“Is this Principal Yang?” Sun Qing ventured to ask.

Yang Lingbao was chatting up with Dean Lei Buxiao and others when he suddenly saw Sun Qing. With a hint of puzzlement, he asked, “You are?”

“Sun Qing, Jiang Cheng’s maternal uncle, Jiang Cheng’s homeroom teacher asked me to…”

Before Sun Qing could finish, he saw several high-level cultivators around Yang Lingbao all turning their gaze towards him, including an especially profound Core Formation cultivator!

Sun Qing, like the majority of Liang Kingdom’s populace, with ordinary aptitude and only at the Qi Cultivation Stage, unconsciously started to get nervous being the focus of so many high-level cultivators.

But what Sun Qing hadn’t expected was that these high-level cultivators were not targeting him, instead, each offered him a friendly smile.

Upon realizing he was Jiang Cheng’s uncle, Yang Lingbao immediately smiled and said, “You’re Jiang Cheng’s parent, right? There’s been a misunderstanding. Your Jiang Cheng is very outstanding. I’ve heard he also does well in school, right? I see no problem with him entering an Immortal Sect in the future.”

Seeing the principal giving such praise to Jiang Cheng, Sun Qing replied politely, “You flatter him. Our Jiang Cheng has always been a well-behaved child…”

Liu Qi, Elder Sun Decai, and Lu Wang twitched at the corners of their mouths. As Foundation Establishment cultivators, they almost lost control of their expressions in front of Sun Qing.

Jiang Cheng is considered a “well-behaved” child?

Do you have some misunderstanding of the term “well-behaved”?

On the contrary, Dean Lei Buxiao had a high opinion of Jiang Cheng and didn’t find anything wrong with Sun Qing’s description of Jiang Cheng as “well-behaved.”

If Jiang Cheng is willing to collaborate with the Sword Cultivation Academy on talismans, he’s not “well-behaved,” then who is?

He had never seen a child as “well-behaved” as Jiang Cheng!

“Sun, your Jiang Cheng is really quite something. He has a boundless future! Haha!”

This was the first time in Sun Qing’s life that a Core Formation cultivator had addressed him with such respect.

He was extremely flustered, responding with overwhelmed gratitude, “I don’t deserve such praise. Principal Yang, this is…”

Owing to Jiang Cheng, today Yang Lingbao had made quite a few new connections, and was in an excellent mood. He carefully introduced each person to Sun Qing, “This is Dean Lei Buxiao of Tianheng Sword Cultivation Academy. This is Elder Sun Decai of Tongtian Sect. This is the president of the Talisman Master Association…”

Sun Qing: ?

These individuals all had significant reputations upon hearing their titles.

So exactly what on earth has this kid Jiang Cheng done!
