Why are the Talismans I Drawn Banned Again?!

Chapter 60 The Renowned Reputation of Jiang Cheng

Translator: 549690339

People generally believe that entering the Immortal Sect is like securing a lifetime job.

This statement is largely correct.

After entering the Immortal Sect, whether you are in the Outer Sect or the Inner Sect, as long as you do not create trouble or violate the Sect rules, even if you are not ambitious, you would not be expelled – at most, you would either be transferred elsewhere or maintain your current position.

However, for cultivators in the Immortal Sect who are ambitious, the pressure from the Sect is quite significant.

Since He’s family is in the Capital and her performance was average when she tested into the Outer Sect, she couldn’t secure a position in the highly competitive Capital. She had to be dispatched to Wuyue City instead.

If she wanted to return home, she had to achieve some results to be transferred back to the Capital.

And, as it happened, her recent performance was very impressive.

During the internal meeting of the Outer Sect staff, Elder Sun Decai summarized the work enthusiasm of the Outer Sect employees over the past period and specifically singled out He for praise.

“Bai Xiaohe has been performing very well recently and is worth learning from by everyone. A female cultivator responsible for the Talisman Area has achieved even higher results than those in charge of the Magical Treasure Area and the Alchemy Area. Those in charge of these two areas should reflect on where the problem lies,” said Elder Sun Decai.

The crowd below was buzzing with many dissenting voices.

They thought that Bai Xiaohe had actually done nothing but piggyback on a Talisman Master named “Jiang Cheng” to achieve her current results!

That Jiang Cheng was simply a human task-completing machine!

So exaggerated!

How could this even be a competition!

Elder Sun Decai motioned for the crowd to quiet down, then continued, “Next, let’s summarize the particularly outstanding achievements of the first half of this year. The three best tasks completed in the first half of the year, the first of which being the task ‘Repair Fluorescence Talisman’ valued at 20,000 low-grade Spirit Stones, was managed by Bai Xiaohe. The task was issued by a male cultivator with the surname Zhou, and the completer was some unknown Talisman Master with the surname Jiang… ”

Elder Sun Decai: !!!

A Talisman Master with the surname Jiang…

It couldn’t be that kid again, could it!

The outrageous situation with the Muscle Relaxation Talisman dealt by that kid was still vivid in Elder Sun Decai’s mind to this day.

The kid had come to take on tasks again, and it was one worth 20,000 Spirit Stones no less!

Elder Sun Decai, as an experienced Elder of the Tongtian Sect, might not excel in achievements, but he was quite skilled in being cautious.

After the meeting, Elder Sun Decai directly kept He aside for a separate talk.

“Bai Xiaohe, Jiang Cheng has taken on a task again?”

“Yes.”

“Why didn’t you tell me, and just let him take it?”

He blinked, “According to the rules, I shouldn’t have to tell you, right?”

Elder Sun Decai had a look of regret, “You speak to that kid about rules? What rules can control him? Never mind that for now, tell me everything about this task he has taken on, in detail!”

Although He did indeed rely on Jiang Cheng’s prowess to boost her performance, she still possessed basic professional competence.

Her Mandarin was standard and articulate, and she relayed the entire process of the “Repair Fluorescence Talisman” task to Elder Sun Decai clearly and fluently.

After listening, Elder Sun Decai, stroking his chin, asked, “So, this is a task related to fishing?”

“Yes.”

Since he didn’t have much regular work, Elder Sun Decai also enjoyed fishing in his spare time.

Fishing and taking exams are not comparable.

Although Jiang Cheng had threatened an exam once, there was no evidence to suggest he would consistently produce heaven-defying items like the Muscle Relaxation Talisman.

“If it’s just fishing, there shouldn’t be any problem. This kid can’t always bring us a big project every time, can he?”

“Mhm mhm,” He nodded eagerly.

She was afraid Elder Sun wouldn’t let Jiang Cheng take on tasks anymore, and if that happened, whose support could she seek?

Before leaving, Elder Sun Decai especially instructed He: “If there is any news from that Jiang Cheng, especially when his tasks suddenly increase, you must notify me immediately!”

He thought to herself: The task has already been completed, what else could happen? It couldn’t be like last time with the Muscle Relaxation Talisman, where a bunch of people came to buy the “Reusable Type of some Encouragement Talisman,” could it?

Last time the Muscle Relaxation Talisman cost just a few thousand, but this time it was 20,000!

Who would spend so much money on a talisman?

“Elder Sun, how much is considered a sudden increase?” He asked.

“If five tasks appear at the same time, no, three or more, as soon as it goes over three, you must notify me immediately,” Elder Sun Decai said sternly.

He left the meeting room and returned to her workstation.

Then, she discovered that her Talisman Area had two additional tasks.

[In need of “Reusable Fluorescent Version of Animal Encouragement Talisman”!]*2

[Task Price: 5,000 low-grade Spirit Stones]

Two tasks, no need to alert the Elder for now.

He expressionlessly took out her communication talisman and with closed eyes, found Jiang Cheng’s name.

She dialed Jiang Cheng’s communication talisman with practiced ease.

“Hello?”

“Jiang Cheng, a task has come up.”

“Mm, I know, I’ll be right there.”

“You know?”

“Yes, it was I who had it posted.”

He marveled silently.

She really couldn’t blame those fellow sect brothers and sisters who accused her of “cheating.”

Because now even she felt that Jiang Cheng was preposterous.

In the past, she had to pay attention and find tasks for Jiang Cheng, then notify him.

Now even that was no longer necessary.

Jiang Cheng had achieved full process automation: automatically finding tasks, accepting tasks, completing tasks, and automatically crediting the achievement to her account.

“Jiang Cheng,” He said.

“Ah?”

“You must live well! Whatever you need, just tell me. As long as I can help you, I definitely will!” He implored Jiang Cheng with tears in her eyes.

On the other end of the communication talisman, Jiang Cheng paused and then said, “Okay, thank you, He.”

After hanging up the communication talisman, a wave of warmth couldn’t help but arise in Jiang Cheng’s heart.

There are still so many good people in the world!

He sighed.

Do a good deed daily, and it will surely echo back.

He must do more good deeds in the future!

Since it wasn’t merely about accepting tasks, Jiang Cheng didn’t let Liu Qing go by herself but went with her to the Task Hall.

In a small meeting room of the Task Hall.

Shen Gengqin and Yue Lipeng had been eagerly awaiting Jiang Cheng for quite some time.

The moment Jiang Cheng and Liu Qing entered, Shen and Yue immediately rose and shook hands with Jiang Cheng.

“Brother Jiang, you’re finally here!”

Their eagerness made it seem as if Jiang Cheng were the elder and they the juniors.

“Is this a junior sister? She really has an aura about her!”

Shen Gengqin said with a smile, reaching his hand out to Liu Qing as well.

But Liu Qing showed no intention of shaking hands with Shen Gengqin; instead, she silently glanced at Jiang Cheng.

Jiang Cheng had no choice but to explain for the umpteenth time, “We’re friends, not that kind of relationship. She’s just a bit introverted, so please don’t take it amiss, big brothers.”

“Not at all, not at all. It’s good to have friends. Friends are great.”

The atmosphere in the meeting room became awkward for a moment, but it was only for a moment.

Because next, Jiang Cheng took out what they had been eagerly anticipating!

Two “Reusable Fluorescent Versions of Animal Encouragement Talismans”!

Shen and Yue’s eyes widened as they asked, “With these, we’ll be able to catch fish?”

“Of course.”

Jiang Cheng led Liu Qing to sit opposite the clients and took out instruction manuals, disclaimers, contracts, and other legal agreements.

“Please make sure to read the content of the instruction manual thoroughly,” Jiang Cheng stressed.

Shen and Yue were more concerned with studying the contract— who had time to read the instruction manual? They briefly glanced over it and couldn’t wait to get their hands on the “Fishing Talisman.”

Not all fishermen were as wealthy as Zhou Yunshan.

This talisman involved five thousand Spirit Stones, and Shen Gengqin still decided to play it safe.

“Brother Jiang, could we perhaps try out its effects first before deciding on the payment?”

Jiang Cheng smiled and said, “Absolutely, this product supports a seven-day no-reason return policy, so feel free to try it out without worry.”
