Life After Prison Novel by Silencieux

Chapter 2121
In the opinions of the peak masters, acquiring Severin as an elder brought a deluge of benefits. Firstly, a seventh-grade
alchemist stationed in their mountain could guarantee a steady supply of pills for their disciples. Secondly, resource allocation by
the sect might slightly tilt in their favor.
As a result, the peak masters of all nine mountains rushed to persuade Severin into joining them.
Myles, the first of the peak masters who arrived, came to realize that his offer was becoming much less attractive in comparison
to the other people’s soaring bids. He anxiously approached Severin and said, “If you join the Seventh Mountain, I’ll grant you
the position of deputy peak master, two spiritual treasures, and two seventh-grade herbs! You’ll also be given full access over our
alchemy resources for your alchemy needs!”
The surrounding peak masters scoffed at Myles’ cunning tactic to sweeten the deal. They knew full well that the Seventh
Mountain had little resources because their focus was on swordsmanship!
Daniella had the same thought as well, and she felt compelled to roll her eyes at Myles before addressing Severin, “Since you
are now a seventh-grade alchemist, your ability aligns perfectly with that of the Sixth Mountain’s focus, which is alchemy. I will
appoint you deputy peak master, and I assure you that you’ll have no shortage of herbs for you to use in your training!”
It went without saying that the Sixth Mountain was the best place for a person to refine the alchemy craft. As the Sixth Mountain
peak master and a seventh-grade medium-rank alchemist who oversaw the Alchemy Chamber, she could ensure that Severin
would receive unlimited resources.

She knew better than anyone the things that truly appealed to a seventh-grade alchemist-it was either higher-level knowledge or
better quality seventh-grade herbs. In that aspect, the Sixth Mountain was far better than all the other mountains combined.
As expected, Daniella’s words drew groans of disapproval from the other peak masters. Myles, in particular, fumed with
frustration because he had been first to congratulate Severin. “No! I was here first! Severin is obliged to come to the Seventh
Mountain!”

Rowan, from the Eighth Mountain, chuckled sarcastically. “And what makes you think this operates on a ‘first come, first served’
basis? Shouldn’t Severin have a say in this? Our mountain welcomes him with open arms too.’

“Our Third Mountain specializes in wood-attribute techniques and we have vast amounts of herbs! You should consider us too!”
“Don’t forget about the Second Mountain! I’ll offer you five seventh- grade herbs and one seventh-grade pill!”
That spectacle doubtlessly drew the attention of nearby disciples, who grew envious when they witnessed the nine peak masters
lock horns over winning Severin over.
“I didn’t think Severin would have become a seventh-grade alchemist already!”
“He’s only the second one so far in entire sect!”
“That is precisely why all those peak masters are fighting desperately over him!”
“I wonder when I’ll receive offers of seventh-grade pills and spiritual
treasures...”
“Comparing myself to someone like Severin is just plain depressing. He’s in a league of his own.”
