Fu Qiu walked up silently.He hung his head low, speaking softly.
However, before Fu Qiu could finish,
Bai Yi, seated in the principal seat, directly interrupted him.
“I’ve said it, I need two thousand low-grade spirit stones, I have a use for them,”
“And besides, you’re merely a deputy sect master of a sub-sect.”
“What qualifies you to speak to me like this?”
Seeing Bai Yi become angry,
Fu Qiu seemed to want to step forward and say something more.
But Luo Changfeng, who had been standing silently in the main hall, waved his hand and blocked Fu Qiu who was by his side.
At the same time, he lifted his head and silently looked at Bai Yi in front of him.
He said calmly and softly, “Two thousand low-grade spirit stones is no small amount, but we will try our best to collect them and then offer them with both hands.”
As Luo Changfeng’s words gradually settled,
A faint smile finally appeared on Bai Yi’s face, who was sitting in the principal seat.
“That’s more like it.”
“It’s your sect master who knows what’s right.”
“No wonder, he’s the sect master and you’re just a mere deputy sect master of a sub-sect…”
After saying this with a smile,
Bai Yi simply waved to the attendants and guards by his side.
For his part, he continued to bow his head,
Perusing the files in his hands that recorded various pieces of information.
Inspection, inspection.
Even if Bai Yi was somewhat lazy by nature,
After all, he still needed to go through the motions.
Another thing on Bai Yi’s mind at the moment,
Was whether the two thousand low-grade spirit stones he had just demanded were a bit too few?
Judging by the brisk manner in which the current sub-sect sect master had agreed,
Perhaps, it wouldn’t have been impossible, even if he had asked for three thousand, four thousand, or even five thousand low-grade spirit stones.
“Forget it.”
“There’s plenty of time, take it slow.”
“When these two thousand low-grade spirit stones are used up, I’ll just ask for more from the current sub-sect sect master.”
“It’s not like those people from the sub-sect would dare to refuse, right?”
After chuckling and shaking his head,
Bai Yi then casually tossed the government affairs he was holding to one side.
Inspecting those sub-sect affairs was absolutely a lucrative assignment.
Originally, even Bai Yi,
Had spent a lot of spirit stones and effort to obtain this job.
If he didn’t take the opportunity to make a good profit from this,
It would really be quite a pity.
“Master…”
Suddenly, a figure dressed in gray, who seemed somewhat indistinct, appeared beside Bai Yi.
“How’s it going?”
“Did you find out?”
Bai Yi, sitting in the principal’s seat, glanced at the attendant beside him and asked in a low voice.
The attendant, with his head slightly bowed and a face full of reverence, said, “Currently in the Da Feng Dynasty, the strongest powers are the Da Feng Dynasty’s Imperial Feng Family, the Qingshi City Luo Family, the Demonic Path’s White Brahma Temple, and the sub-sect power we belong to.”
“However, since most of us in the Wan Dan Sect are alchemists,”
“We don’t have any conflicts with the other powers.”
Listening to this, Bai Yi nodded solemnly and quietly.
Now that he had come to the Da Feng Dynasty,
And was going to stay here for some time,
He naturally wanted to understand a bit about the power structure of the Da Feng Dynasty.
The Da Feng Dynasty, Imperial Feng Family.
That was not beyond his expectations.
The Demonic Path’s White Brahma Temple.
That, too, didn’t surprise him.
After all, not just in the small confines of the Da Feng Dynasty, but even the entirety of the Northern Desolate Divine Continent was now in a state of chaos.
Countless White Brahma Temples had chosen to step out into the open.
Who knew what those monks of the White Brahma Temple were really thinking?
Apart from the Da Feng Dynasty’s Imperial Feng Family and the Demonic Path’s White Brahma Temple,
That last one, the Qingshi City Luo Family…
Did catch him somewhat off guard.
If he remembered correctly, the current sect master of the sub-sect standing before him just now seemed to be surnamed Luo, right?
Over at Qingshi City, it was also Luo.
So, could there be some connection between these two Luos?
In the main hall, atop the principal’s seat.
Bai Yi narrowed his eyes slightly as he pondered to himself.
However, it was only a moment later.
He shook his head, dismissing the thought.
Because, regardless of what it was,
no matter if there was any real connection between the two Luos,
it had nothing to do with him.
As long as the Sub-sect provided enough Spirit Stones for his use and cultivation, that would be enough.
What use was there in caring about the rest of those trivial matters?
Having stopped paying attention to these concerns, Bai Yi waved his hand, signaling that the servant beside him could leave.
And following the servant’s gradual disappearance from his field of vision,
Bai Yi, seated in the main seat, slowly stood up.
After waving his hand, he directly took out a Furnace Cauldron.
He had invested a lot for this lucrative opportunity.
Now that he had finally arrived at the territory of the Sub-sect,
he intended to recover all the Spirit Stones he spent, principal and profit included.
…
Inside the Da Feng Dynasty’s Wan Dan Sect Sub-sect.
Outside the main hall.
At this moment, Luo Changfeng, the current Sect Master of this Sub-sect, was silently making his way inside the main hall.
And following behind him, Fu Qiu, the old fellow who was the present Deputy Sect Master,
seemed to no longer be able to restrain himself.
“Elder Brother Luo, those two thousand Low-grade Spirit Stones…”
“Do you really intend to give them to that kid from the Main Sect?”
However,
Luo Changfeng gave no reply to Fu Qiu’s inquiry.
He simply lowered his head slightly, as if pondering over something.
It wasn’t until a long while later
that Luo Changfeng slowly lifted his head, and glanced at Fu Qiu, who still appeared hesitant and conflicted.
After a moment of silence, he couldn’t help but say in a low voice, “What do you think would happen if that guy from the Main Sect were to die within the Da Feng Dynasty?”
Fu Qiu was somewhat taken aback.
Hearing those words, he couldn’t help but be stunned.
What? That kid from the Main Sect dying within our Da Feng Dynasty territory?
After his surprise, Fu Qiu looked incredulously towards Elder Brother Luo.
Those were not words to be spoken lightly.
Fortunately, the Alchemists and high-level officials of the Sub-sect who had followed earlier had already departed.
Only Fu Qiu remained by Luo Changfeng’s side.
Otherwise, had these words been overheard,
it could have been quite troublesome.
“Elder Brother Luo, are you serious?”
After a period of silence,
Fu Qiu asked with a hint of seriousness.
Luo Changfeng narrowed his eyes slightly, turned his head, and looked deeply in the direction of the Sect’s main hall.
Then he spoke in a low voice, “How numerous are the Sub-sects of Wan Dan Sect?
“Moreover, the competition between Wan Dan Sect and Divine Elixir Sect has become increasingly fierce recently.”
“Therefore, I think…”
“the death of one person shouldn’t be considered a big deal.”
“What do you think?”
Fu Qiu’s expression grew even more solemn.
In fact, due to the tense and thrilling nature of their conversation,
beads of sweat the size of soybeans broke out on Fu Qiu’s forehead.
“Should we really do this?”
Fu Qiu still hesitated.
Mainly because the deterrence of the Main Sect had become deeply rooted in the Sub-sects.
Engaging in some small acts of subterfuge was one thing,
but to directly take action against someone from the Main Sect seemed difficult.
“Observing a part to view the whole.”
“From minor details, it is possible to discern the bigger picture.”
“The arrogance of Wan Dan Sect’s Main Sect has almost been branded on everyone affiliated with Wan Dan Sect.”
“It is like this here, at our place.”
“Likely it is the same with the other Sub-sects.”
“Therefore, even if we do not act, surely plenty of Sub-sects will choose to move against the Main Sect, or even defect to Divine Elixir Sect.”
