Transmigrated into a Grandpa, Embracing the Laid-Back Life

Chapter 462: Soul-Nurturing Incense

Those gazes held reverence, envy, and a hidden mix of jealousy and curiosity. After all, this person not only carried the Border Defense True Seal, he had also suddenly become the personally-appointed disciple of the Formation Peak Master, a legendary figure who had already taken on a mythic presence in the eyes of the sect’s low-ranking disciples.

Su Ming’s expression remained calm; he had long since gotten used to such looks. The Way of Survival did not mean always acting submissive. Faced with absolute hierarchy and status, appropriately showing a bit of authority could actually save a lot of unnecessary trouble.

He walked straight to the deepest part of the hall, to the special counter reserved for inner disciples and true disciples.

The steward behind the counter, who had been dozing with his eyes closed, sprang up as if a spring had been attached to his seat the instant he saw the purple robe. The stern face instantly split into a smile bright as a chrysanthemum.

“Well, well, so it’s Great Disciple Su in person! What can I do for you today?” the steward gushed, bowing and flattering to the extreme.

Su Ming gave no idle words. He took his identity token from his sleeve and handed over the list he had already planned.

“Two items. One Spirit-Communion Jade Marrow, and one Star-Pattern Silk, both of mid-to-high quality.”

“Right away! Great Disciple Su, please wait!” The steward took the token, not daring to ask any unnecessary questions, and immediately turned and rushed into the special storeroom in the back.

While the steward went to fetch the goods, Su Ming sent a sliver of divine sense into his identity token.

In the contribution points section, a clear number appeared: 21,350 points.Seeing that number, Su Ming’s mouth twitched ever so slightly into a faint smile.

A small portion of that had come from what he himself had accumulated before, but the vast majority was the steady dividends that had flowed into the Repair Hall over the past few months.

Since he had implemented assembly line operations and the standard damaged component training method, and handed the chief steward position over to Wang Defa, the Repair Hall machine had started running properly. By monopolizing low- to mid-tier formation repair work for the outer sect and even some inner sect, it brought his “hidden hand” a steady and generous passive income each month.
