My cultivation is too warm

Chapter 114 Who Calls Himself a Villain (3200)

After Xu Mo finished speaking, he kept observing his senior sister Ye Qingyue's reaction.

He was actually quite worried that his proposal would be opposed by the other party. He felt that Senior Sister Ye, who was able to make Sanyuan Zhenren suffer, should be a person who only took in and never gave out.

Although he is the peak master and can still implement it even if there is opposition, this will go against his original intention.

What he needs is a harmonious and friendly Wuyou Peak, not a one-man show.

What's more, Senior Sister Ye and several of her relatives and friends jumped to my side as soon as Wuyou Peak was first established. They are my closest team and my true family.

This is why he can reveal his true nature in front of them.

If possible, he didn't want to have any unpleasantness with the other party.

Xu Mo was thinking worriedly, but Senior Sister Ye Qingyue's reaction was beyond her expectations.

I saw a surprised smile on her face, and she looked particularly happy. She stood on tiptoe, clenched her fists and waved them.

After doing this, her expression suddenly froze, and she seemed to have just realized that Xu Mo was still beside her. Her pretty face, as white as jade, blushed slightly, and she lowered her head shyly.

Xu Mo was stunned. It was the first time he saw Senior Sister Ye Qingyue acting like a little girl.

Ye Qingyue looks a little cold on weekdays, but when she does things, she seems very cool and domineering, like a strong woman.

After a while, Ye Qingyue regained her composure, raised her hands and made a Dao seal towards Xu Mo, and said with a faint smile:
"I'm sorry to have made you laugh, Master. I was just too happy just now."

Xu Mo quickly waved his hand and said, "Senior Sister, don't worry about it. I'm very glad that I can see your true side. This shows that our Wuyou Peak has become a home. Why should we care about our image as a family?"

Ye Qingyue covered her mouth and smiled, "Junior brother is really good at talking."

This time she did not call him Peak Master, but called him Junior Brother, perhaps she agreed with Xu Mo's words.

Then she restrained her expression and said seriously, "Actually, regarding Junior Brother's previous suggestion, I've wanted to do this for a long time.

When we were at Lingmiao Peak, the Peak Master Jiumiao always treated us like family.

At that time, I thought that if I became a peak master or elder one day in the future, I would definitely treat my disciples the same way as the master of Jiu Miao Peak, and do better than him.

But if we do this, our Wuyou Peak will need to consume a lot of resources.

After all, we are just establishing our sect. As the elder of internal affairs, I should first consider long-term and stable development instead of not mentioning this matter because of my personal sentimental thoughts.

Now, hearing you say this, I feel happy, as if I have met someone who shares the same philosophy and ideals as me."

Xu Mo nodded thoughtfully after hearing this. So that's how it is. He almost forgot that all the relatives and friends were from Lingmiao Peak.

Lingmiao Peak has the "honest" peak master Jiumiao Saint, so naturally he will not be harsh on his disciples.

Senior Sister Ye Qingyue might be a bit sinister, or she might be like Sanyuan Zhenren who only takes in and never gives out, but under the influence of Jiumiao Saint, she would never treat her own disciples like this.

After figuring it out, he quickly followed the other person's words and said, "No wonder my senior sister and I are standing here together, maybe this is the reason.

In fact, I was also influenced by Senior Jiu Miao and wanted to be nicer to my own disciples. I was worried that my senior sister would object before, so I made up this excuse.

Now that I hear what you said, Senior Sister, I feel relieved."

Xu Mo spoke confidently and without any psychological burden. No matter what his purpose was before, from now on, he was influenced by the Nine Wonderful Saint and wanted to pamper his own disciples a little more.

Ye Qingyue nodded in agreement. "We were both disciples of Lingmiao Peak before, and were influenced by the philosophy of the Jiumiao Peak Master. Now we are together at Wuyou Peak. Perhaps this is the meaning of inheritance."

Then she looked at Xu Mo and asked, "Junior brother, what do you think is the appropriate increase in salary?"

Xu Mo stroked his chin and thought for a moment, then said, "In about one or two hundred years, our cooperation with Danxia Peak will bring in a large amount of spirit stones.

Before that, or before we find a new source of resources, we can recruit fewer disciples, and then, while ensuring the normal operation of Wuyou Peak, we can increase the number as much as possible. The specific details will be determined by you, Senior Sister."

Ye Qingyue nodded, then rolled her eyes and estimated for a moment, "If that's the case, increasing it three to five times won't be a problem."

After she finished speaking, she hesitated for a moment, then asked with some concern, "But if we do this, will it provoke opposition from the other main branches?"

Xu Mo understood her concerns. After all, they were all from the same sect, yet the treatment at Wuyou Peak was so much higher than at other major branches. Isn't that unfair competition? That's not how you fight a price war. If the other major branches knew about it, it would be surprising if they didn't object.

But he didn't care in his heart. This was the effect he wanted. Without the contrast of the other main veins, how could he highlight his own strengths? Wouldn't everything he did be in vain?
So he waved his hand and said nonchalantly, "What are you afraid of? We just do our own thing and have a clear conscience. Why should we answer to them? If they have any objections, they can just give us the same treatment we give them. We're not stopping them from doing so."

After saying this, he thought with some pride: Of course, they have to have the strength to keep up.

The other main branches are not like their Wuyou Peak. The mountain gate has just been established and there are not even any disciples yet. Everything is starting from scratch and they can do whatever they want.

The main veins had countless disciples, and even if their treatment was only increased by a single point, it would be a huge amount, affecting the entire body. Xu Mo didn't believe they would dare to follow suit. Even if a main vein with deep roots really did catch up with the treatment of Wuyou Peak, he would just increase it when the time came.

Anyway, he has few disciples and a lot of wealth, so he can just roll up his sleeves. Who’s afraid of whom?

Seeing him say this, Ye Qingyue was completely relieved. "Since you say so, Junior Brother, I will set new standards."

Xu Mo nodded, "Then I'll trouble you, Senior Sister."

After saying this, he thought of something else and invited Ye Qingyue, "I remember that Wuyou Peak has the priority to select disciples at the sect's new student recruitment meeting. Senior Sister, would you like to come and see it?"

Giving priority to selecting disciples is Tianxuan Sect’s support for them. After all, it is a newly established branch, and it is definitely unable to compete with other main branches for people.

When the other main branches were first established, they also had the same power.

Of course, it is only a priority selection. The selected disciples need to agree before they can officially join.

The sect will not force any disciple to join any lineage, so this power can only be considered better than nothing. After all, those disciples are not stupid and will make their own choices.

Ye Qingyue smiled faintly when she heard Xu Mo's words, "Since it's my junior brother's invitation, then I naturally won't refuse."

Xu Mo bowed, made an agreement with the other party, said hello, and left.

Now, there is still a month before the new member recruitment meeting, and Xu Mo is preparing to imprint the "Shennong Herbal Classic" as the signature skill of Wuyou Peak.

Anyway, I can't understand this crappy technique myself, so I might as well pass it on.

If other disciples succeed in their cultivation, he can ask them about their insights.

This was the method he thought of to break the tricks of Emperor Shennong Yan.

It is really uncomfortable to have obtained the inheritance but not be able to understand the skills.

He may not practice, but he must understand.

Xu Mo has already made up his mind. After he has collected the insights of his disciples and understood the full picture of the technique, if the technique is not as powerful as he imagined, he will not practice it.

This is his resentment, and the feeling can be described like this: It’s not you who dumped me, but I who dumped you!

He just wanted to let go of his temper for once, because that crappy technique prevented him from understanding it.

After Xu Mo printed more than ten copies of "Shennong's Herbal Classic", he personally delivered them to the Sutra Library and placed them there.

In the Sutra Library, he also saw his senior sister Lin Miaoqing, who was concentrating on reading the Taoist Canon. Perhaps she was reading too seriously, so she did not notice Xu Mo's movements.

Seeing this, Xu Mo did not disturb her. He could understand her feelings. After all, she had been practicing for so long, but had never seriously read the Taoist scriptures. She did not know many common sense knowledge in the practice world. Now that she had this opportunity, she naturally wanted to read all the collections in the Sutra Library at once.

After coming out of the Sutra Library, Xu Mo originally planned to continue refining the elixir. He was interrupted by the Yan Emperor's elixir furnace before, and now he was halfway through but had no results, which made him feel bad.

But at this time he suddenly received a message from the Holy Lord Jiu Miao, saying that he had something important to discuss.

The tone of Saint Jiu Miao was a little solemn, as if something big had happened. This made Xu Mo's heart jump, and he didn't care about anything else, and hurried towards Ling Miao Peak.

Jiu Miao Shengzun's expression was very ugly. As soon as he saw Xu Mo, he couldn't wait to speak: "The bad premonition I had when I was in the Blood Demon Sect came true."

Xu Mo was slightly stunned when he heard this, and then he thought in his mind, "Are you talking about the purpose of the Chaos Ancient World attacking me?"

Jiu Miao Shengzun nodded, clenching one hand into a fist, veins popping out on his arm, and said with a hint of annoyance, "At that time, I was thinking about whether they had betrayed their position, and I didn't consider that this was actually a warning to us that Lingmi was in danger. If only I had thought of that at the time."

Xu Mo's expression froze, his worldview shattered. "What did you say? They attacked me to warn us? What kind of warning is that?"

Jiu Miao Saint uncle unclenched his fist and sighed, "That's the way those people in the chaotic ancient world do things. Every time something happens, they remind us in a roundabout way and never tell us directly.

In their own words: If your Cang Gu world is the righteous side, then we in Luan Gu world are the villains. If I remind you directly, then will we still be the villains?
Anyway, we have already given you all the hints we should give you. Whether you can understand them or not is your business and has nothing to do with us.

After all, we also have to maintain our image and face.”

Xu Mo's expression froze. Now he was certain that his three views had been shattered.

He actually calls himself a villain. Are the people in this chaotic ancient world really okay?
Jiu Miao Sheng Zun didn't care about Xu Mo's reaction. After he finished speaking, he sighed again and said with a regretful tone:
"If only we had understood their intentions back then, the situation on the 'Heavenly Road' is dire now, and our spiritual rice has been contaminated."

　There will be more today.

　　Thanks to my book friend [Xingye Yuxi] for the reward. Thank you for your long-term encouragement and support. I am deeply moved.
