Chapter 113 The Immortal Lord Doesn't Care

In the conference room, the burly man with bluish-gray skin spoke first.

"What gives them the right to refine pills?"
"How can they refine pills?"
"I suggest we find out about their alchemy factory and take it down!"

On the other side, an obese woman was also slamming her fist on the table, her emotions running high.

"Let me lead the team!"

"I go!
"I'm going to destroy their alchemy factory."

The old man, whose face was full of wrinkles, sighed.

"Don't be in such a hurry."

"First, report this matter to your respective families to gain some support, and then go and fight."

Sitting to the left of the director, Chen Xie listened and watched, but he was actually a little confused... What impact would the elixir refined by the Non-Natural Department have on Pulin Bookstore? Why were these people reacting so strongly?

Then the head of the Spiritual Energy Recovery Department spoke.

"The Non-Natural Department distributed elixirs to more than a thousand celestial officials. These elixirs require at least fifty liters of spiritual energy as raw materials."

"Their efficiency in gathering spiritual energy is also much higher than we estimated."

At the end of the conference table, a man with a scarred face was particularly agitated.

"Grass!

"The official forces have become stronger, so why do I feel so uncomfortable?"

"I just can't stand them!"

Chen Xie lowered his head, forcing himself not to laugh.

This scarred man is a serial killer, wanted by the police, a rat in the gutter, so of course he doesn't like the authorities.

The obese woman also slammed her hand on the table.

"right!

"I just don't like them!"

Chen Xie recalled the personnel files of the bookstore he had read... This woman was actually a rapist, wanted by the police, a scoundrel, and of course she disliked the authorities.

"This time, we must take them down no matter what."

"I suggest that everyone act without delay and report this matter to the family immediately."

The old man with a face full of wrinkles reiterated his point of view once again.

Chen Xie remembered that the old man was a fraudster who had committed heinous crimes, enough to warrant being executed several times over.

He looked up and scanned the room... All of the dozen or so cadres at Pulin Bookstore had criminal records to varying degrees; they were all like rats in the gutter.

That's not surprising... The vast majority of clean celestial officials have joined the official ranks.

There are three main types of people who didn't join: ambitious people, wanted criminals, and rich kids.

Then the bureau chief cleared his throat and spoke in a loud voice.

"Okay, so it seems that everyone's opinion is relatively consistent."

"The Non-Natural Department is already very powerful, and it will become even more powerful after mastering spiritual energy and elixirs."

"The mortal realm is only so big. As they become stronger and larger, they will attract more neutral celestial officials and control more areas and more spaces."

"And the space left for us to breathe will become smaller and smaller."

"Therefore, this time, we must take action."

Fortunately, those incompetent people in the Non-Natural Department have only just taken out the elixir and don't yet have any combat power to show for themselves.

"We immediately reported to our respective families, applied for resource support, and tried to find the alchemy factory as soon as possible and take it over in one fell swoop."

"It would be best to snatch their alchemists back and control the elixir in our own hands."

The heavy rain outside the window was blown askew by the wind, pattering against the glass.

At the conference table, everyone slumped down and quickly drifted off to sleep.

Chen Xie looked around, hesitant.

He had no criminal record and wasn't that hostile towards the Non-Natural Department.

Moreover, he always felt that something was wrong.

At this point, he simply lay down, closed his eyes, and went to dream, asking his family elders.

……

Blah blah blah...

In the night rain, huge black clouds floated.

On the surface of the giant cloud, Wu Yun was leading the minks, explaining to them the spirit-gathering array he had just adjusted. "...The original spirit-gathering array was a large funnel-shaped opening, which was very dependent on direction."

"The east has more spiritual energy, so it should face east."

"The west has more spiritual energy, so it should face west."

"If the direction is wrong, the effect of gathering spirits will be reduced."

"Now, our newly adjusted Spirit Gathering Array is no longer limited by direction."

"I got eight small loudspeakers and arranged them in a circle, pointing in all directions: east, west, south, and north."

"We can absorb spiritual energy from any direction!"

The minks jumped and cheered around the boss in celebration!

"嘤嘤嘤!"

"Ouch!"

"Waaaaah!"

The boss is indeed the most amazing and talented!
If the boss didn't learn the Cloud Soaring Technique, then he's probably a super formation master!

Wu Yun grinned and led the mink employees to move aside, continuing his introduction.

"Of course, eight small loudspeakers, pointed in eight directions."

"Sometimes the greatest source of spiritual energy is in the angle between the two speakers, and if it is not aligned, it will affect the effect of gathering spiritual energy."

"In this case, we need to adjust the position of the formation."

"To make it easier for everyone to use, I've created a control panel for Black Cloud..."

As he spoke, Wu Yun led the minks to a raised platform on one side of the black cloud.

From this platform, one can overlook the entire Spirit Gathering Array and see which of the eight loudspeakers absorbs more and which absorbs less spiritual energy.

On the platform, there was also a steering wheel, made of frozen ice, which hung low and connected to the entire black cloud.

"...This steering wheel is the rudder that controls the direction of the black clouds."

"When I conduct research in the future, I will ask everyone to take turns observing the great formation and then control its direction through the steering wheel to gather more spiritual energy!"

……

Blah blah blah...

The cold wind and rain poured into the family meeting hall.

"...The people at Pulin Bookstore are in an uproar, all wanting to ask their families for help and to shut down the non-natural department's alchemy institutions..."

Chen Xie was quickly reporting the situation in the mortal realm to his family.

Things are different now. He is no longer an unknown nobody, but has gained a pivotal position in the family. He sits below his thirteenth uncle and can no longer feel the cold wind and rain outside the council hall.

As he quickly reported, everyone in the council hall understood the whole story.

"Then... shall our Chen family also do our part?"

"If Pulin Bookstore obtains the elixir resources, it will be very beneficial to you, but can you secure that power?"

"Which family's younger generation is currently in charge of the alchemy business within the bookstore?"

As everyone was chattering, they suddenly heard Uncle Thirteen clear his throat.

The entire council hall fell silent instantly, with only the voice of the Thirteenth Uncle remaining.

"Our Chen family will not participate in this matter."

"Their desire to seize the immortal pill resources from the non-natural department ultimately stems from their own selfish interests."

"One person's selfishness is selfishness, and the selfishness of the masses is still selfishness."

"They didn't seriously consider what the Immortal Lord's true intentions were?"

Thirteenth Uncle looked at Chen Xie.

Chen squinted, his mind racing.

"Um... What the Immortal Lord wants is for mortal officials to collect more spiritual energy, produce more elixirs, and improve their cultivation levels?"

Uncle Thirteen stroked his beard with a smile.

That's right!
"Children can be taught.

"Xiao Chen is indeed extremely talented in figuring out the emperor's intentions."

"What the immortal lords want is to spread martial arts to the human world, and to have more immortal officials with deeper cultivation in the human world!"
"As for the background, role, and character of this celestial official, whether he is a loyal subject, a compliant citizen, or a murderer... the Celestial Lord doesn't care at all."
