Chapter 71 Increase In Allowance

Han Cai nodded. "Yes, Uncle Master, as long as I have enough spirit stones, I can continuously improve my cultivation."

The elder of the martial hall was not ready to give up yet. He asked, "Could you show us how you are able to absorb qi of spirit qi in spirit stones and how it helps you grow cultivation without any bottlenecks?"

Han Cai did not mind. The system absorbed spirit stones through him only and converted them into exchange points. He just had to pretend and then increase his cultivation level using the exchange points.

But at that time sect master coughed, and Elder Dongmei spoke up, "This is enough! Han Cai, you don't have to show anything to anyone. But I want to ask If the Sect provides you more spirit stones, you can grow your cultivation faster?"

Han Cai nodded.

Elder Dongmei asked, "What is your allowance right now?"

Han Cai responded, "I receive 100 spirit stones allowance from master."

Elder Dongmei nodded, looked at the sect master, and said, "Zhu Xin, why are you such a scrooge? Giving such talented disciple only 100 spirit stones."

This time not just elders. Even the sect master rolled his eyes. To look magnanimous in front of Han Cai, elder Dongmei would say anything, and now he made the sect master look bad in his disciple's eyes.

Sect Master Coughed tried to save his face "Master Uncle Han Cai joined the inner sect recently, so we have not finalized his allowance properly."

Elder Dongmei shook his head and spoke again, "Since Han Cai would be working for my dark hall in the future, my dark hall will take care of his allowance. From now on, Han Cai, your monthly allowance will be 500 stones."

All the elders rolled their eyes. He is speaking like he is paying those spirit stones personally from his pocket. The spirit stones in the dark hall come from the sect. So basically, Sect will be paying Han Cai's allowance, and dark Hall will be taking the credit alone.

Han Cai's eyes twinkled. Palpatine looked very pleasing to Han Cai now.

Elder Dongmei spoke, "But you can not get complacent. I will give you one year. After one year, you will have to start taking missions from my dark hall. Whenever I meet you, I better see some growth in your cultivation, or your allowance will be deducted."

Then elder Dongmei thought something and Spoke again, "Before your personal missions begin, sometimes you will follow dark hall elders or me to our missions to broaden your understanding of dark hall"

In his mind, Han Cai cursed, "Shit, Palpatine is in a hurry to turn me into a Vader?"

Han Cai Bowed, "I will not disappoint you, Uncle grandmaster."

The Sect master, who was worried that elder Dongmei might make him look bad again, spoke hurriedly, "Uncle Master, we should leave. Let Han Cai get some rest".

All elders in the room left one by one.

After they came out of the abode sect master spoke, "Uncle master, isn't it too soon for Han Cai to take dark hall missions? If something goes wrong?"

Elder Dongmei responded, "Don't worry, I will assign his missions personally myself, And Dark will allocate some protectors; they will follow him secretly and protect him."

Sect master nodded and thanked the elder Dongmei. With this, a whole night-long core elders meeting which started in the sect hall ended in Han Cai's abode. 𝗳𝓇ℯe𝓌𝚎𝚋𝓃𝚘𝚟𝘦𝑙.𝑐𝚘𝙢

**************************************************

Two Weeks had passed since Xioyun asked Mei to get details about Han Cai.

Xiaoyun's cave abode. Mei was standing nervously in front of Xiaoyun.

Mei Spoke, "I tried all the methods. Han Cai stays cooped in his cave abode. He never left except on the first day, but the inner sect disciples under me who were watching his cave abode never saw when he returned. The next day in the morning, they saw some core elders leaving Han Cai's cave abode. After the core elders left, The disciples watching his cave abode were driven away by dark hall disciples. Now dark hall protects his cave abode. No inner sect disciple is allowed nearby except for the gray robes that serve him. I tried visiting him directly, but he told his servant gray robes that he would be in closed-door cultivation and no visitors are allowed."

Xiaoyun frowned. Core elders visit his cave abode, and the dark hall protects him. Why is the sect giving this kid so much attention? It was one thing for the sect master to dote on this kid as his master. But now the whole sect cares about him? What was going on? Before, she was the most precious disciple of the sect, but she never received protection from the dark hall. The core elders did not visit her either. She needed to eradicate this hatchling before things got out of her hand.

Xiaoyun spoke, "So you are saying you were not able to find out anything about him?"

Nervous Mei shook her head hurriedly and spoke. "Of Course Not, Xiaoyun. Even though He did not come, his gray robes came out a lot to get his meals from the inner sect mess hall. Some of the disciples under me have become good friends with them. The pathetic gray robes would never give up an opportunity to make some connections in the inner sect. But they did not know much either. Han Cai doesn't allow them inside the cave abode. The good thing is dark hall doesn't care much about those gray robes, so they can be used in anyways we like. My subordinates asked them all about Han Cai. He likes music and comes to the terrace to play flute in the morning. He also talks to gray robes, asking them if anything new is going on in the sect, but besides that, he stays holed in the cave abode. Some days he goes out for walks out of the cave abode. There is no specific timing. From what I heard, the outer sect elders will bring his family to Cloud Mountain City. I thought his family could be used as a weakness, but I heard besides outer sect elders, the dark hall disciples would be watching over his family too. As you know, dark hall disciples can not be bribed, so his family can not be used to our advantage."
