The Eerie Immortal Path: Begin by Devouring Fairy Flesh-Chapter 56 – The promotion of Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix
After leaving Patricia Qing's residence, Brandon Jiang didn't immediately take the antidote. Instead, he brought it back for Chu Jun to study.
The components of this antidote, which could alleviate the effects of the Heartbreak Pill, gave Chu Jun significant insights, making the reverse-engineering of the Heartbreak Pill much smoother.
Then, Brandon returned to his place and began to focus on comprehending the Daoist art for concealing his true cultivation that Patricia had given him.
Brandon had already studied this Daoist art for several days. After a whole night of enlightenment, he finally managed to maintain this art long-term, making it impossible for others to see through his true cultivation.
Moreover, the Daoist art seemed to have undergone some enhancement on him.
Brandon used the Daoist art to conceal his cultivation to the second level of Qi Refining and had Chu Jun observe the effect.
The result was that despite Chu Jun's peak of Qi Refining cultivation, she could not detect any anomalies, whether by naked eye or spiritual power perception.
Brandon even boldly let Chu Jun extend her spiritual power into his body, but she still couldn't see through the disguise of the Daoist art!
The original Daoist art couldn't achieve this level of concealment!
This made Brandon very satisfied. With the enhancement, even Patricia Qing, the original owner, wouldn't be able to see through it!
This gave him much more room to maneuver.
In the following period, Brandon presented himself with the cultivation of the second level of Qi Refining and diligently worked on Purple Lotus Peak.
To prepare for the next sand theft, he controlled the quality of the materials he produced, making sure it was neither too good nor too bad.
This way, when refining the "Everyone Like Dragon Golden Thunder Sand," he could give his all, greatly improving the quality rate. Even if he stole a portion of the finished Gold Sand, no one would suspect.
However, during his time working on Purple Lotus Peak, he often endured the cold stares from Dorothy Lin.
It was clear she knew Susan Lin had disappeared after meeting him, but without evidence, she could only sulk alone.
It's worth mentioning that Dorothy Lin's cultivation had reached the third level of Qi Refining, but Brandon didn't care about that as long as she didn't cause him any trouble.
At night, Brandon focused on improving his cultivation.
Patricia Qing was pushing him hard, demanding he reach the fourth level of Qi Refining within two weeks. Even with ample cultivation resources, this was a severe challenge for a cultivator with B-grade top-tier aptitude.
Fortunately, Brandon had a mysterious source of ownerless spiritual energy in his body, which could be automatically refined and absorbed, alleviating the urgency.
After nearly a week of cultivation, he was already close to the threshold of the fourth level of Qi Refining.

Although he hadn't completely broken through yet, Brandon had made significant progress in terms of spiritual power and physical fitness.
He estimated that with his current strength, he could hold his own against Susan Lin for a minute or two, if not defeat her.
Once he broke through to the fourth level of Qi Refining, defeating Susan Lin wouldn't be a far-fetched dream.
Time passed, and a new day arrived. Brandon returned to Purple Lotus Peak.
While waiting for Elizabeth Chun and Barbara Xia to assign him work, an unexpected situation occurred.
"Brandon, don't rush to start working. Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix wants to see you."
Elizabeth Chun and Barbara Xia spoke in unison, making Brandon's heart tighten with anxiety.
Damn, could it be that my deeds have been discovered?
But it's been so long, the evidence should be gone by now. Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix must have other reasons for calling me.
Brandon steadied his mind but couldn't shake the sense of déjà vu.
The last time Patricia Qing forced him to take the Heartbreak Pill, she also sent two children to summon him.
This incident had become a major shadow in Brandon's heart.
And now, Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix was calling him. Could she also be planning to force him to take some controlling pill?
Brandon was extremely nervous but didn't dare refuse. He could only nod obediently and heavily approach Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix.
"Brandon greets Senior Sister. You summoned me; what are your instructions?"
Brandon respectfully bowed and cautiously raised his head to observe Sandra Ye's expression.
Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix still looked like a young, pure, and stunning girl, but her long-standing high position and the fact that she was sitting on a high platform with her eyes half-closed gave her an aura of noble elegance, making her seem like a holy fairy.
But the next moment, she opened her eyes, and the eternal cruelty in her beautiful eyes instantly dispelled that holy aura.
However, upon seeing Brandon, her cold gaze softened a bit, and she spoke gently:
"Brandon, I've noticed your hard work recently."
"Though your talent in talisman-making is average, your character is the best among all the children."
"So I've decided that from today, you will join Elizabeth Chun and Barbara Xia in supervising the other children's work."
Sandra paused and then spoke earnestly:
"This was also the job of your sister, Yan Baobao. You must cherish this opportunity and not disgrace her."
Brandon's heart tightened upon hearing this!
Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix had completely regarded him as a second Yan Baobao, directly elevating him to the same status as Yan Baobao, Elizabeth Chun, and Barbara Xia.
If it weren't for Patricia Qing's task, he might have been thrilled about this.
But now, he had to actively strive to make the "Everyone Like Dragon Golden Thunder Sand." If he became a supervisor, how could he continue his plans?
However, things had reached this point. If he dared to refuse, it would undoubtedly arouse Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix's strong dissatisfaction and suspicion!
All the goodwill he had painstakingly accumulated would vanish in an instant.
So he had to agree first and then plan further.
Thinking of this, Brandon immediately put on an excited and incredulous expression and said:
"I... I actually took on Sister Yan's job?!"
Then he showed a touched expression and said:
"Senior Sister, you are so kind to us sisters. If Sister Yan's spirit is in heaven, she would be as happy as I am!"
"Please rest assured, Senior Sister. Whether for you or for Sister Yan, I will do my best in this job!"
Sandra Ye nodded slightly and said:
"In addition to supervising the children, you will also help Elizabeth Chun and Barbara Xia manage the affairs on Purple Lotus Peak. They will guide you on what needs to be done."
"Yes!"
Brandon nodded solemnly. Seeing that Sandra Ye had no other instructions, he respectfully said:
"Then I'll go familiarize myself with the work, Senior Sister."
Sandra Ye nodded, but just as Brandon was about to leave, she suddenly spoke again:
"I noticed you seem a bit unsettled today. If you encounter any trouble, you can tell me directly."
Brandon's heart skipped a beat, followed by a surge of warmth.
Besides Chu Jun, Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix was probably the only one in the Heavenly Lotus Sect who genuinely cared for him.
He couldn't help but feel an impulse to tell her about being controlled by Patricia Qing.
But in the end, Brandon held back.
Patricia Qing must have taken precautions against this. If he really did that, it could lead to unpredictable consequences.

Thinking of this, Brandon just smiled and said:
"It's just some minor troubles, no need to trouble you, Senior Sister."
