After I left the sect, the entire sect knelt down and begged for forgiveness.

Chapter 35 Fairy, please have some tea
She didn't get any useful information from the man in black, so she killed him. While she was worrying about how to dispose of the body, the flower simply used the man in black as fertilizer, absorbing everything except his body parts.

This flower's properties are similar to the hallucinogenic flower of the Ten Thousand Demon Forest; it hunts demonic beasts and cultivators for nourishment. Even placing a barrier around it and covering it with black veils didn't help.

She didn't believe that one person could cultivate such an evil flower. It was a variant cultivated from the hallucinogenic flower of the Ten Thousand Demon Forest, and its fragrance could make cultivators dizzy and lose consciousness. The pollen also had a certain controlling effect on cultivators.

Even more terrifying is that this flower is more beautiful and alluring than the one in the Demon Forest, and it glows in the dim light. Countless cultivators have been attracted by its beauty, bought it, and then fallen victim to its allure, losing their lives.

The vendor who sold her the flowers was just waiting for her to lose consciousness so he could come in, kill her, take her storage bag, and feed her corpse to the flowers.

What a vicious scheme! What a wicked gang!
Knowing that these flowers were cultivated by a certain organization or even a sect gave her a headache. Since leaving the Ten Thousand Demon Forest, she hadn't even had time to deal with her own affairs before encountering a host of problems.

Investigate? That's a waste of her time! If she doesn't investigate, and this organization throws the entire Canghai Continent into chaos, how can she remain unscathed? And there's the matter of the Blood Bats; she hasn't even visited the Longevity Pavilion yet.

She rubbed her temples in frustration, caught in a dilemma.

If we investigate, it will take an immense amount of effort and time, and the forces behind it are complex and intertwined, making it difficult to uncover the truth. However, if we don't investigate and allow it to develop unchecked, it will inevitably become a major problem in the future, and we ourselves will find it difficult to have peace of mind.

After some thought, she decided to stir things up and force the organization to come to her. The organization that cultivated this flower was used for murder, robbery, and plunder; presumably, some cultivators had already fallen victim to it. The bigger the commotion she made, the more uneasy the organization would become.

The reason this approach cannot be used regarding the blood bats is that they are used to cultivate evil arts. To ensure the success of these evil arts, those involved will undoubtedly try to completely suppress any related information and remain completely silent. At the slightest sign of trouble, they will immediately disappear, making them even more difficult to track down.

She retrieved the image-capturing stone, removed the black veil and protective shield, and captured the flower's appearance in a photograph. After putting the stone away, she conjured flames in her hand, preparing to completely incinerate the eerie flower.

The flower seemed to sense a threat; its leaves trembled violently, and its fragrance intensified, attempting to use the scent to make her lose consciousness.

She took a Grade 3 antidote pill as soon as she entered the room. Combined with her Golden Core cultivation level, the hallucinogenic effects of the flowers she cultivated were much weaker than their ancestor, posing no threat to her.

The flame flew from her hand to the flower. The blazing flame instantly engulfed the flower until it turned to ashes.

The next day, she checked out of her room early in the morning and went to the merchant guild to sell monster materials and some first-grade spirit stones.

If there are many monster materials, they need to be processed in a special room. At that time, three appraisers will estimate the value of each part of the monster, and another cultivator will be responsible for the total valuation.

She first poured out the non-poisoned monster corpses, leaving the four merchant guild members responsible for receiving her stunned. Seeing that her robes were of the highest grade and her cultivation was only at the Qi Refining stage, how could she have killed these fourth and fifth-tier monsters?

Unfortunately, the hides of these monster corpses were all incomplete. They were either blown to pieces, slashed, or stabbed. An uninformed person might think that these monsters had been whipped.

If the dead monsters could hear the thoughts of these people, they would probably be moved to tears. That's right, they were being whipped on the corpse!

The valuation of a demonic beast is simply based on its usability in alchemy, weapon crafting, and other applications. For example, its pelts can be used to make talisman paper, and its core can be refined into the energy conversion core for a flying boat array...

After the calculation was completed, the chamber of commerce staff member in charge of the total respectfully asked her, "Fairy, the total is 36,570 high-grade spirit stones. Shall we transfer it directly to your spirit stone token?"

He figured that no one would just stuff such a large amount of spirit stones directly into a storage bag; there must be a tag on it. "Wait a minute, I also have a batch of monster corpses, they're poisonous. You guys clean these corpses first, then I'll empty them out."

The chamber of commerce staff who received her exchanged bewildered glances, wondering if the second batch of poisonous monster corpses she had brought wouldn't be of such a high grade.

They quickly gathered up the corpses on the ground and smiled, "Alright, you can dump them now."

Lin Yan took out another bottle containing the corpses of demonic beasts. With a thought, the corpses slid out of the bottle one by one, returning to their original size.

The first one was a second-tier poisonous frog, and the merchants looked on with expressions of "I knew it." Next was a third-tier poisonous scorpion, which they assumed was the highest-grade one in the batch.

……

Finally, a fifth-order Earth-devouring Serpent appeared, and they all had expressions of utter disbelief.

The two batches combined totaled over a hundred demonic beasts, many of which were second or third tier, with some high-quality ones even reaching the fifth tier. How did she manage to kill them all?

Ignoring their stunned expressions, Lin Yan said rather apologetically, "There are relatively few poisonous ones, thank you for your help."

"No trouble at all, no trouble at all, it's our job, it's what we should do."

After waiting for a long time, the total amount after two batches of calculations was 49,900 high-grade spirit stones. Because the amount was quite large, she requested that it be put directly into her storage bag and that she wait in the rest room with the staff in charge of the calculations.

She had previously obtained her storage bags from others and sold them on the black market. She only had one Myriad Treasure Storage Bag and two ordinary storage bags, all filled with items. She then asked the Merchant Guild to give her a new ordinary storage bag, with the cost deducted directly from the previous settlement.

No sooner had the guild members left than a cultivator entered carrying a fruit platter and tea. The male cultivator was dressed in the guild's work robes, the lapels wide open, and his face showed a slight shyness. "Fairy, please have some tea."

She didn't even glance at it, continuing to pet the rabbit. She said indifferently, "Put it down."

Seeing this, the male cultivator was not discouraged. He continued to strike poses and said in a low voice, "Fairy, let me pour you some tea."

With a thought, Lin Yanling conjured a mysterious herb from her storage bag. She handed it to the Red Enchantress, saying helplessly, "You're hungry again. Your appetite is getting bigger and bigger. I'll have to buy you some more mysterious herbs for fodder later."

"Cuckoo~"

The Red Enchantress's protest echoed in her mind.

"My appetite hasn't been getting bigger; it's always been the same!"

Sigh...
