Life After Prison by Silencieux novel Chapter 1901

Some of those individuals were among the top ten prodigies on the list. Needless to say, to achieve the status of an elite disciple in the Grandiuno Sect requires extraordinary strength. Each one of them was at least a level six supreme saint, and they formed the backbone of the sect even though there were not a lot of them. Each of them was strong enough to become a pillar of a smaller sect.

In contrast to Shyam and the many other elite disciples who harbored jealousy toward Severin after he became the sixth core disciple, the five great core disciples were more curious about Severin than anything.

Inside a well-tended garden courtyard on the Sixth Mountain sat a woman wearing a blue gown. She sat cross-legged next to a cauldron and had an aqua-blue silk bow tied around her waist. A gold hairpin adorned her long black hair, and white boots embroidered with gold silk completed her outfit. Her fair ankles were visible, and they seemed to complement her cold and beautiful appearance. Her charming eyes and delicate skin made her look like an angel that had descended to earth and was as yet unadulterated by the world.

The woman was Celeste Mullin, the Sixth Mountain's prodigy and the sole woman among the five core disciples. Celeste was once a concubine, and it was by chance that sect elders came across her and found out that she possessed the Forest Constitution. It was a rare Element Constitution that resonated particularly well with alchemy, making her an exceptional talent in the field of alchemy. Celeste thus became a disciple of the Grandiuno Sect's Sixth Mountain.

Once she was accepted into the sect, she lived up to her expectations and demonstrated exceptional talent. Aside from making a rapid breakthrough to supreme saint, she had also achieved the status of a fifth-grade alchemist. Due to the combination of those talents, her ascent to becoming a core disciple seemed set in stone, and the sect conferred that status to her a year ago. Unlike the other core disciples who chose to have their island, she decided to remain on the Sixth Mountain.

Celeste was surprised by the news of the sixth core disciple as she sat cross-legged next to the cauldron. It came as such a big shock that even the pill inside the cauldron was burnt without her noticing.
