At the beginning, I cleaned the Sutra Library and completed the incomplete skills.

Chapter 118: Fat Job [Updated 2/3]

This book is first published on twkan.com

Li Lan had no intention of reminding the other party.

To survive in this dog-eat-dog world of cultivation, one must understand the principle of 'sweep the snow from your own door, and don't bother about the frost on others' roofs'.

Since these cultivators were wise enough to stop provoking him, Li Lan was too lazy to look for trouble himself.

He went to a corner of the Tian Shu Pavilion,

took out a scroll from his storage bag, and placed it on a brown wooden table.

He said softly:

"Senior Brother Fan, please help me cancel this sect mission. I won't be looking for the Brass Pine spiritual plant anymore."

Behind the brown wooden table,

an old man buried in various scrolls and books raised his head.

After seeing who it was,

the flesh on his face twitched, as if he was smiling.

"Oh, it's you. Why did you suddenly see the light this time?

It's really a waste of your talent, with your strength in the mid-stage of Qi Refining, instead of serving the sect properly,

you're competing with a bunch of early-stage kids at the first or second level of Qi Refining for missions.

I've said it before, even if you find this Brass Pine, so what?

The reward for picking spiritual plants is so little that it's not even enough for you to buy pills to aid your cultivation."

Senior Brother Fan shook his head and mumbled a lot,

and then said:

"It's not too late to understand now.

What do you think? What mission are you going to take next?

Do you want to go to the Southern Prefecture to deal with rogue cultivators, or go to the Western Prefecture to eradicate demonic remnants?"

Li Lan smiled politely.

"My strength is low, and my cultivation level is not worth mentioning. What you said, Senior Brother Fan, is probably beyond my capabilities.

After pondering for a moment, he added:

"After careful consideration, I have decided to stay here and make a small contribution to the sect.

May I ask Senior Brother Fan, how many pills do I need to refine for the sect to complete a sect mission?"

Upon hearing this,

Senior Brother Fan immediately put away his smile, a look of disappointment appearing on his face.

"Don't you have any ambition at all?

Besides picking spiritual plants, it's refining pills. You're not willing to take any risks!

Alas! I thought you had already awakened, but now it seems that your enlightenment is far from enough!"

However, despite the lecture,

he still flipped out a book from the mountain of booklets on the table and tossed it to Li Lan.

"Here, the requirements are all here. Take a look yourself."

The latter took it and carefully flipped through it.

However, after only a moment of reading, Li Lan couldn't help but furrow his brows slightly.

Senior Brother Fan naturally knew why he would show such an expression,

but he just watched quietly without saying anything.

After he finished reading the entire booklet, Senior Brother Fan prompted in a timely manner:

"How is it? Have you decided what kind of pills to refine?

If you have, tell me, and I'll help you change the mission."

Li Lan's brows furrowed into a knot, and finally he couldn't help but say:

"Senior Brother Fan, it's fine that refining pills doesn't come with free pill formulas and requires disciples to purchase them themselves,

but why is the number of pills required to be submitted so harsh?

At this rate, wouldn't I have to waste most of my time every day on refining pills,

just to barely complete this sect mission by refining pills?

Then how can I cultivate, how can I step into a higher realm, and better serve the sect?"

"Hey, who cares how you cultivate?

Li boy, you must know the principle that you can't have it both ways.

Since you have chosen a relatively safe sect mission, you always have to pay some price."

Senior Brother Fan smiled slyly and educated him unhurriedly.

"Thank you for your teachings."

Li Lan thought for a moment, and finally cupped his hands and left.

Senior Brother Fan twitched the corner of his mouth upon seeing this.

Immediately, he ignored it and continued to bury himself in his own tasks.

Having been in this Tian Shu Pavilion for many years,

he had seen too many registered disciples who wanted to take shortcuts.

The Guangji Sect also has a complete set of response methods to ensure that cultivators at each realm must provide the maximum value they can exert in order to survive safely in the sect.

Senior Brother Fan had just immersed himself in his task for not long,

when a figure appeared again in front of him, blocking the light.

He thought it was Li Lan who had returned,

with an unhappy expression on his face, he was just about to raise his head to say something.

But when he saw clearly who the person was,

Senior Brother Fan immediately swallowed back the words that were about to come to his mouth.

He stood up with a start,

quickly put on a warm smile, and bowed, showing his flattery.

"Uncle Murong, why are you here?

Fan has failed to greet you from afar, I hope Uncle doesn't blame me."

Murong Ziheng did not exchange too many pleasantries with the other party,

with a wave of his hand, he set up a soundproof barrier around him.

Senior Brother Fan knew that this was the posture to talk about serious matters,

and quickly mustered all his attention.

Immediately afterwards,

Murong Ziheng flicked his finger,

and an orange jade slip had flown to Senior Brother Fan's face.

At this time,

he slowly said:

"Elder Chi has ordered that from today onwards, this matter will be included in the sect's mission, no longer setting a threshold, and all registered disciples can participate."

Senior Brother Fan sank his divine sense into the jade slip,

and a large amount of information poured into his mind.

After reading it, the expression on his old face couldn't help but change,

and his tone was somewhat hesitant:

"Let all the registered disciples participate in the mining of the outer sect's spiritual veins? Isn't the risk a bit too great?

You must know that most of these registered disciples are newly recruited into the sect, and their loyalty to our sect is still questionable.

In addition, if these registered disciples do this matter, what about those disciples who were previously responsible for mining spirit stone mines?

They are all direct descendants of the elders of the inner sect. Although their cultivation is not high, they can usually find a lot of benefits from mining spirit stone mines.

If this sect mission is released, and their lucrative jobs are snatched, will they be willing?"

Senior Brother Fan was able to live in this Tian Shu Pavilion because of his relationship with an elder of the same clan.

When considering things, he can naturally think more from the perspective of his other clansmen.

"What you can think of, Elder Chi has naturally already thought of.

The events that have occurred in the Southern Prefecture recently are also being staged in the other three regions of the Eastern Prefecture, the Western Prefecture, and the Northern Prefecture, and are intensifying.

Now the entire Jiuhua Prefecture is no longer peaceful.

Many outer sect spiritual veins have completely lost control, and our sect has suffered great losses.

It is precisely because we don't want those descendants of the elders to lose their lives in vain outside,

that Elder Chi has made such a decision.

You can rest assured,

after recalling those disciples, their whereabouts will be properly arranged.

Those with higher cultivation can be sent to mine spirit stones in middle-grade spiritual veins,

those with lower cultivation can learn to plant spiritual herbs and refine pills.

Their sect mission requirements can be appropriately reduced to one-third of those of other registered disciples.

Upon hearing this, Senior Brother Fan's worried look disappeared, and he turned to joy.

"Such an arrangement is extremely thorough.

It will not interrupt the progress of the mining of those outer sect spirit stone mines, and it will also ensure the safety of those descendants of the elders. It can be called killing two birds with one stone,

Elder Chi is truly wise!

This nephew will go to prepare and spread this good news immediately!"
