Using entries to cultivate immortality in chaotic times-Chapter 666 - 232: "Chen Qiu’s Heavenly Patrol"!_3
"Thank you!"
And the Beiling Sect Master simply led a group of elders, all with beaming smiles, standing on the sect platform, waving continuously at the Flying Boat high in the sky.
"..."
Standing on the deck of the Flying Boat, the Heavenly Axe Sect Master looked down at the scene below with an expressionless face, silent. He suddenly felt that his previous assessment of the various powers in Xuantian State might have been somewhat inaccurate. freewebnøvel.com
The image these forces portrayed was somewhat more inconsistent with his memory.
For example, the Taoist Sect Master.
This was an old friend of his, whom he always found quite stubborn and obstinate, yet he was silenced with a single all-in maneuver.
And then there was this Beiling Sect.
Owners of the Xuantian Daily, claiming to be a neutral power, the disciples of this sect were always so arrogant, especially the Sect Master, but now...
He saw no arrogance, only subservience.
"Eh?"
Fat Long looked down at this scene, slightly surprised, "Is everyone so sensible? Being too sensible makes it hard to proceed with the plan. I was thinking of making an example of someone, but now it doesn’t seem like there’s an opportunity for that."
"Let’s go."
Chen Qiu walked from the cabin to the deck; this was a situation he needed to personally oversee, especially since the matter of the Xuantian Daily needed careful discussion.
...
"Mm, mm."
In the reception hall of the Beiling Sect, a plate of juicy Spirit Fruits was laid out on the table, and the Beiling Sect Master was diligently nodding, "Understood, understood. I will immediately arrange it and personally take care of it."
"Mm."
Chen Qiu, with a calm expression, lightly tapped his index finger on the table, "The headline can be decided by you."
Having said that,
he then rose and left the reception hall alone. He left the rest to be handled by Fat Long—it wouldn’t be appropriate for him to meddle in these matters as it would be beneath his dignity.
However, as he rose to leave, he felt a sense of emptiness around him, which was somewhat unbecoming.
It seemed he needed to find a few maids.
That way, he could leave the reception hall with the help and company of maids, which would be more refined. Otherwise, leaving by himself felt too lonely. Once all the Cultivation Resources were used up and he came out of seclusion, he would make arrangements for this.
Chao Tian Sect did indeed need two groups of maids.
One group to take care of the Chao Tian Sect disciples, and another group to take care of him.
He’d had this idea while in Xuantian Continent but hadn’t implemented it. Once this matter concluded, he would assign this task to the Heavenly Axe Sect Master, who was familiar with Xuantian State and fit for the job.
This was the purpose of a sect’s existence. He only needed to focus on his Cultivation—all other trivial matters could be delegated. Otherwise, personally handling everything, even with the ability to multitask, would wear him out.
And as his Cultivation and combat power increased,
he didn’t even need to show up in person, as his reputation alone could accomplish many things.
For example—
Normally, the Early Stage of Divinity Transformation wouldn’t have been impressive to the Beiling Sect, but at that moment, the Beiling Sect Master was looking at Fat Long with great respect, tentatively asking, "Elder Fat Long, what shall we do next, then...?"
The Early Stage of Divinity Transformation wasn’t much.
But the identity of the Chao Tian Sect Grand Elder was quite intimidating. It wasn’t an exaggeration to say he held a high position with significant authority.
"Mm."
Fat Long took a fruit basket from the hands of a brown bear, placed it on the table, and pushed it towards the Beiling Sect Master, calmly saying, "Chao Tian Sect never visits empty-handed, just a small token, not worthy of respect."
"This..."
The Beiling Sect Master abruptly stood up, took the basket from the table with trepidation, and carefully handed it to a disciple beside him. Then, he took out several Storage Rings from his chest and pushed them across the table, earnestly saying.
"Beiling Sect also never allows guests to leave empty-handed. Please accept this modest gift in return!"
Elder Fat Long was not lying.
The Chao Tian Sect indeed had a custom of never visiting empty-handed, but he was very clear that there was a following to that statement, which was that the Chao Tian Sect also never returned empty-handed.
After Fat Long checked the Storage Ring with his Divine Sense, fifteen thousand Mid-grade Spirit Stones—quite decent, not every sect was as wealthy as the Taoist Sect.
He nodded with a smile, "Then, I shall take my leave, wishing the Beiling Sect eternal inheritance."
With that, he turned and walked out of the reception hall.
"..."
Standing in the corner inside the room, the Heavenly Axe Sect Master’s lips twitched slightly; he also prepared to turn and leave—everything went smoothly without any incidents.
But just at that moment—
Right after Fat Long had left the reception hall,
the Beiling Sect Master quickly stood up, grabbed the Heavenly Axe Sect Master by the collar, and whispered urgently, "We’re old friends, give me some inside information. Why did the Chao Tian Sect give the Taoist Sect a Token but not our Beiling Sect?"
"And the senior even specifically instructed me to heavily promote the Taoist Sect in the Xuantian Daily and even use his reputation for endorsement."
"How much more did the Taoist Sect give than us?"
"How come the Taoist Sect got a Token while all I got was a blessing and a fruit basket?"
"..."
The Heavenly Axe Sect Master looked at his old opponent with a complex expression, didn’t speak, but simply lifted both palms and spread out his fingers.
"Ten thousand more?"
The Beiling Sect Master was slightly taken aback, a flash of astonishment in his eyes—he had offered fifteen thousand Mid-grade Spirit Stones, so ten thousand more would be twenty-five thousand. The Taoist Sect actually gave twenty-five thousand Mid-grade Spirit Stones?
That was not a small amount!
However, he quickly came to terms with it, sighing with some emotion, "No wonder the senior took such good care of the Taoist Sect. They really are wealthy indeed, able to hand over twenty-five thousand Mid-grade Spirit Stones without even batting an eye."
