Hunyuan Immortal Sect

Chapter 94: Possessing a Treasure is a Sin

Song Xian smiled and said, "Did I really lie to you? To be honest, I didn't expect that just by switching to Qingfengfang, I could sell so many in just over a month. This is beyond my expectations. It's just like the saying goes, the virtue or vice of a person is like a rat; it all depends on where it lives!"

"Don't worry about sales now. We've just become famous in Bianxi City, and sales will only get better and better in the future. As the saying goes, the beginning is always the hardest. We've already gone through the most difficult process of building something from scratch. Even though the road ahead is still long, it will definitely be much smoother."

"I called you here this time mainly to discuss the issue of expanding the production of Yuxiang Pills. If this trend continues, I'm afraid that by then our refining speed won't be able to keep up with the quantity we can sell."

"Although we have over a thousand pills now, which is enough to last for a while, we still have to be prepared for a rainy day. After all, we only have Junior Brother Qi busy refining the pills right now. If the Yuxiang Pills become famous in the future and sales soar, Junior Brother Qi alone will definitely not be able to handle it."

"After all, our products are daily consumables, and the market demand is unlimited. However, the work of refining pills is very complicated, and ordinary people can't get involved. If we really have to cram at the last minute, it will definitely be too late. Therefore, we must train people to refine Yuxiang Pills now."

"Junior Brother Qi, do you think there is anyone in the sect who is suitable for refining the Jade Fragrance Pill? I will ask him to help me. From now on, he will study the method of refining the pill with you."

Qi Xiaobai pondered and said, "I wonder if the master wants him to learn the art of alchemy, or just learn how to make the Jade Fragrance Pill."

"As long as you know how to refine the Jade Fragrance Pill, that's enough."

"This is simple. The process of refining the Jade Fragrance Pill is not complicated and easy to learn. Any cultivator with a fire-attributed spiritual root can do it."

"I remember that Junior Brother Zichen, Junior Brother Shen Fan, Senior Brother Zhang Yi, and Senior Brother Zhong Yang in the sect all have fire attribute spiritual roots. Let's do this! I will let Senior Brother Zhang Yi and Senior Brother Zhong Yang come, and I also ask Junior Brother Qi to teach them carefully." Song Xian said.

In fact, he himself also possesses fire-attributed spiritual roots, but he has to control the overall situation and is busy with affairs, so naturally he has no time to learn the method of refining the Jade Fragrance Pill.

Jiang Zichen helped Feng Yan sell Yuxiang Dan at Qingfengfang. Shen Fan had previously reported that he wanted to study puppet making skills, so he didn't let them busy themselves with alchemy.

Qi Xiaobai nodded and said, "Master, rest assured. I will do my best to help them master the method of refining the Jade Fragrance Pill."

"Thank you for your hard work during this period. I mentioned earlier during the sect meeting that I would give Junior Sister Feng's sales team half of the profits from the Jade Fragrance Pills. Since you are the ones who refine the Jade Fragrance Pills, of course you will also be included. Just like the sales team, I will also give you half of the profits, and we will distribute it all at the end of the year."

"Junior Brother Qi, you are fully responsible for the refining of the sect's Jade Fragrance Pill. From now on, you can independently recruit people to join your team. Anyone you like can be absorbed into the alchemy team."

"There's just one thing: the recipe for refining the Jade Fragrance Pill must be kept strictly secret from outsiders. Only disciples who have joined the sect can be taught the technique of refining the Jade Fragrance Pill."

"For those you select, you can have them first handle auxiliary matters such as purchasing spiritual medicines and preparing pills and powders. Observe them for a period of time. If you feel there are no problems and they are interested, you can accept them into the sect."

……

After talking with Qi Xiaobai, Song Xian left the market and returned to Laogufeng, where he called everyone together to discuss the matter. He first recounted the sales situation of Yuxiangdan in Bianxi City, and then talked about the establishment of an alchemy team. He specifically asked Zhang Yi and Zhong Yang to go and help Qi Xiaobai refine Yuxiangdan.

Needless to say, everyone was pleasantly surprised to hear that Yuxiang Dan had sold so much, and they all praised his foresight and strategy.

After the sales of Yuxiang Dan started to improve, Song Xian did not relax at all. Instead, he continued to increase his investment and spent more manpower and material resources to promote his own products in various gathering places for cultivators in Bianxi City. As a result, the sales of Yuxiang Dan became better and better.

By the third month, Yuxiangdan had sold nearly 300 pills a month, and many of them were repeat customers. It can be said that the business was completely on the right track.

.........

In the spacious and bright room of Yuyuan Sect, Peng Yu pushed the door open and walked in. He bowed to the headmaster Wang Xuan who was sitting inside and said, "Headmaster."

"Junior Brother Peng is here, please take a seat!"

"I wonder what the Master wants me to do?"

"Brother Peng, have you heard anything about the Hunyuan Sect since you came here?"

Peng Yu was shocked when he heard this. Ever since Song Xian came to Yuyuan Sect to question him last time, he had been under house arrest and forbidden to leave the sect. He had not gone out for several months. Wang Xuan knew this, but he brought up the matter of Hunyuan Sect even though he knew the answer. There must be a reason.

"Didn't the Sect Master tell me last time not to go out until we figured out what happened to that little bitch Feng Yan? I've been staying in the sect for the past few months, completely unaware of external affairs." "I've already sent people to investigate that matter, and it's true, as Junior Brother Peng said, we were tricked. Feng Yan did join the Hunyuan Sect after this incident, and not only her, but the entire village moved to the side of Old Lone Peak. Clearly, Song Xian is shielding them. I'm sorry, Junior Brother Peng."

Peng Yu's eyes lit up when he heard him say this. He knew Wang Xuan's character well. Since he used the word "tricked", he must be preparing to do something to Hunyuan Sect.

This was exactly what he was thinking. Ever since Song Xian came to Yuyuan Sect to file a complaint last time, he had been holding a grudge against Hunyuan Sect, not because they had protected Feng Yan and had lost his face.

The most important thing is that he hates the feeling of being played with. Song Xian first pretended to have a conflict with Feng Yan and tricked him into talking. Later, he acted as a good guy and not only pulled Feng Yan into the sect, but also used this as an excuse to go to Yuyuan Sect to question him.

This made him feel like he was being played around by others. During this period, whenever he thought of this matter, he felt a ball of anger in his heart. He had been thinking about revenge for a long time, but he could not take action because of Wang Xuan's order.

Now that he saw that Wang Xuan also intended to take action against Hunyuan Sect, he immediately became eager to try.

"It's nothing to me, but that Song guy deliberately deceived the Master. It's obvious that he doesn't take our Yuyuan Sect seriously. Master, you can't be too lenient. This is a private matter. It's fine that Song guy just protected us, but he even bullied us and caused trouble. This is intolerable. We must teach the Hunyuan Sect a lesson."

Wang Xuan remained calm and asked, "Junior Brother Peng, do you know where Feng Yan is now?"

"Didn't the Sect Master just say that she has joined the Hunyuan Sect?"

"Joining the Hunyuan Sect is a good idea. She is now in the Qingfengfang shop in the Mingyue Pavilion, responsible for selling the Jade Fragrance Pill."

Hearing him say this, Peng Yu immediately understood his intention: "Master, what do you want me to do?"

"I've thoroughly investigated the Hunyuan Sect. It's a small sect with only a dozen or so members. Since they've bullied us, we should teach them a lesson."

"Didn't you buy Feng Yan? You paid for her Transcendental Transformation, so she's half a sect disciple. How could she just leave without a word? The Hunyuan Sect is shielding her because they're deliberately opposing our sect. Go ahead! The sect will support you."

.........

As the sun sets, Zhong Yang rides on a camel, carrying bags of spiritual medicines on his back. These are all auxiliary medicines for refining Yuxiang Pills.

As they were marching, two flying magic vehicles shot out from behind and blocked the way for several camels.

Six or seven men dressed in Yuyuan Sect uniforms jumped down from the magic weapon. The leader was Peng Yu, holding a long black whip in his hand.

When Zhong Yang saw the unfriendly looks from several people, he was startled and felt something was wrong. He certainly knew what had happened with the Yuyuan Sect before.

"Why are you fellow Taoists blocking our way down? What do you want to teach me?" Zhong Yang was worried, but he tried his best to pretend nothing had happened and asked with his head held high.

"You are from the Hunyuan Sect, right? What's your name?" Peng Yu asked coldly.

"My name is Zhong Yang. May I know the names of your fellow Taoists?"

"Get off me." Peng Yu suddenly attacked, and the black whip in his hand burst into light. It immediately wrapped around Zhong Yang's body like a black snake, and with a light drag, he pulled him off the camel's back and threw him to the ground.

Zhong Yang was shocked and furious. He certainly wasn't completely unprepared, but Peng Yu's cultivation was already much higher than his, and his sudden attack left him with no time to react before he was tightly bound by the long whip. Furthermore, the other side was outnumbered, so he didn't dare to resist much, fearing that it would provoke their viciousness and put his life in danger.

"What are you going to do?" Zhong Yang became increasingly uneasy. He stood up from the ground and pretended to remain calm.

"What are you doing?" Peng Yu swung the black whip in his hand, and Zhong Yang fell to the ground again. He took a few steps forward, stepped on his chest, and crushed him to the ground with a ferocious look.

"An open man never does shady things. My name is Peng Yu, and I know you're from the Hunyuan Sect. Today, I'm going to teach you a lesson. Go back and tell Song Xian that if he doesn't send that little bitch Feng Yan to me, I'll never let you go. The next time I see you, it won't be as simple as a lecture."

"I'll give you half a month, otherwise I'll kill all the people in Shizhai Village first, and then I'll settle accounts with you one by one, unless you hide in the market or the mountain gate for the rest of your life."
