Becoming evil makes you ten times stronger, but becoming a demon gives you hundredfold strength-Chapter 171 - 159: Feeling a Bit Excessive

It was 11 PM by the time I rushed out, so I won’t divide it into finer details. Two chapters combined are also eight thousand words; I hope everyone had a happy day yesterday.

...

Changdong Minor World.

Meng Yu’s figure appeared atop a hill, looking around at everything.

He had asked Zhuge Caihua to help purchase star planets, and not much time had passed; the transport ships carrying supplies should not have arrived yet. Of course, this didn’t mean Changdong Minor World was uninhabited, but it should be very safe.

First, he set up a Shielding Formation and added a function to create mist, obscuring everything around it.

Meng Yu gave a wry smile and patted the three Storage Bags at his waist, each filled with supplies.

Bai Qianqian had not inspected Meng Yu’s Storage Bag, unaware of how many valuable items Meng Yu had stashed inside.

When he negotiated with Master Lin about the ransom for the Rainbow Pheasant, he had a rough estimate in his mind: just one-tenth of the Black Iron Gold in this bag would be enough not only to redeem the pheasant but also to make Master Lin politely admit that his attitude had been wrong, "Mister Meng, you are a man of great generosity."

Black Iron Gold was a common yet expensive material, very valuable in the Immortal Sect and even more so in the Western Wastes. Many weapons and formations required this metal; it was a currency as solid as Spirit Stones.

Black Iron Gold was often hidden in hard-to-mine places. Fortunately, with industrial mining in the Immortal Sect and the discovery of rich veins, the output was high. In fact, if Meng Yu engaged in trade between the two realms, earning money with Spirit Stones and Black Iron Gold would be an easy path to wealth.

At that time, Bai Qianqian was hesitant. Meng Yu could see she was determined to save the Rainbow Pheasant; she was just contemplating how to borrow money or what to mortgage. This foolish rabbit didn’t even think about detaining Master Lin on the spot and taking the Rainbow Pheasant first!

Facing such a timid and kind girl, Meng Yu had no choice but to resort to underhanded methods.

The items he had looted were scattered and stored in Great Wu, Immortal Sect, and with him—like hiding several here. He emptied the Storage Bag, and then began to lay out the formation.

For more than half a year, Meng Yu had been learning Formation with Bai Qianqian instead of Sword Training. Some might feel that Meng Yu was wasting his time, but he knew very well how much help learning Formation from Bai Qianqian had been to him.

In the Immortal Sect, to triumph as the underdog, other than using Magical Treasures and Spirit Talismans to overpower with resources, one relied on Formations.

It was the advantage of time and place!

Meng Yu had previously come to the Changdong Minor World quietly and had scouted the area. This small hill was what he found to be most suitable for him—not the best Spirit Vein on the planet but perfect for his needs.

Bai Qianqian had crafted a Formation Diagram for him called the Wind-Fire Qiankun Formation, which harnessed the fire from the Nine Regions and the Wind of the Nine Heavens. They circulated in mutual synergy, creating a Qiankun (Heaven and Earth) formation.

A First Grade Formation Diagram, personally crafted by an Array Master at the Golden Core stage, silently enveloped the hill and its surroundings. Then, based on the lines of the earth’s veins and the flow of Spiritual Energy, one Spirit Talisman and Array Plate after another flew out to set up the Great Formation.

This wasn’t an Immortal Sect Formation, but one that Bai Qianqian had customized for Meng Yu, integrating his actual Wind and Fire Sword Intents to create the most suitable First Grade Formation for him.

Previously, during the battle with the five hundred members of the Death Squad in Qingye Small World, if he had this Formation, he wouldn’t have had to escape but could have easily slain them all.

It was a tedious month. He obediently stayed here, meditating, Qi Cultivating, and studying Formations.

Sometimes, he wondered how chaotic things must have been over at the Immortal Sect, all for those thirty-four issues.

Sometimes, he wondered how anxious Qian Qian must have been?

And wondered whether the Enforcement Hall might airdrop a Death Squad down?

Similarly, would Hall Master Zhao’s nefarious intentions resurface, him plotting to kill Meng Yu?

This planet really was a good place to lay an ambush for him.

He quietly stayed here for a month until he returned to the Moon-Watching Sect a month later.

...

In the Western Wastes, Moon-Watching Sect.

Bai Qianqian was like a rabbit on a hot pan, pacing back and forth. Meng Yu had been gone for three hours; why hadn’t he come back yet?

The next moment, Meng Yu appeared in the room, but he was covered in blood, clearly having gone through a fierce battle.

An injured (disguised) Meng Yu threw two Storage Bags in front of Bai Qianqian.

"Master, we’re not short on money anymore."

Bai Qianqian didn’t care about those Storage Bags; she rushed over and supported Meng Yu.

"You idiot, do you realize what you’ve done!"

The rabbit looked at Meng Yu’s wounds, her eyes filling with tears.

"It’s nothing, I just... went on a robbery, that’s all."

Meng Yu spoke very calmly. He hadn’t told the rabbit about his robbery in the Immortal Sect before, and the browsing records he provided her didn’t involve this sort of thing; he had only said he was in hiding.

Now, he told jade rabbit that he had gone to the Immortal Sect and robbed a Minor World, acquiring quite a few nice things.

When the Storage Bag was opened, a great amount of Black Iron Gold poured out.

"I’m sorry, Qian Qian, I actually wanted to trade peacefully over there. I still had some Spirit Stones, but too many people were paying attention to me before. What was supposed to be a fair trade turned into a trap, and even a big shot descended personally.

So I thought, why not go all the way? I headed directly to a factory belonging to Star Industrial Company nearby and raided their warehouse. That’s how I got these things!"

The Black Iron Gold, like heavy disks, bore a dull sheen similar to gold. The contents of the two Storage Bags would be enough for Bai Qianqian not only to rescue the Rainbow Pheasant this time but also to clear the debt for the Spirit Awakening Fruit.
