Trading system, I exchanged vegetables for golden pills.

"Hey Wu, stop running! Xu has already been executed. You can keep him company on your journey!"

Elder Li roared and led his men to quickly approach.

Elder Wu ran even faster!

He cursed Ye Chen in his heart. "You Ye Chen, you ran so fast, you're just trying to get rid of me by having someone else do it!"

Hey, slow down! Come and talk to them!

Elder Wu was ultimately injured and was eventually caught up with!

"Elder Li, wait, wait, wait! It's a misunderstanding! I've already spoken with Ye Chen, and he promised to release me. If you don't believe me, go ask him!"

Elder Wu, panting, quickly explained.

Elder Li sneered, "Whoever promised you they'd find you, it's the Luoshui Sect that's after you now. You betrayed the sect and murdered the sect leader, an act against all reason and law. Prepare to die!"

Elder Wu gritted his teeth in anger: "Can't you guys be reasonable? Elder Xu was the mastermind behind this, and the sect leader was already dead when I arrived!"

"Elder Li, I know it was wrong of me to ambush you, but I had no choice. I apologize, is an apology enough?"

Elder Li was almost laughing in anger: "Apologize? If an apology would be useful, let me beat you up first, then I'll apologize, okay?"

Elder Wu took a deep breath: "Then what do you want? Here, I'll give you all these things, and you let me go!"

Elder Wu pointed to the plastic bag on the ground.

Elder Li scoffed, "Do you really think you have any room for negotiation? Everyone attack together! Whoever beheads the enemy will be the one with the greatest merit, and the Holy Maiden will reward them according to their contributions after she ascends to the throne!"

The disciples were all quite excited upon hearing this.

However, given the example of that loser Shen Shan, people have become much more cautious.

We must resolutely prevent Elder Wu from getting close, and wear him down until he dies.

Elder Wu's strength was far inferior to Elder Xu's, so his fate was already sealed!

The battle scenes weren't intense at all!

Elder Wu was forced to endure one long-range attack after another, feeling extremely frustrated.

Finally, Elder Wu could no longer tolerate it and desperately lunged at the two nearest ordinary disciples.

However, he underestimated the extent of his Qi Sea injury, and the attack immediately worsened his condition.

Those two ordinary disciples were bait; they ran away as soon as they saw Elder Wu rushing towards them, not giving Elder Wu a chance to fight head-on.

The other disciples seized the opportunity and swarmed forward, taking Elder Wu down in one fell swoop.

Real combat is this simple yet brutally ruthless!

......

Ye Chen flew around for a long time and finally found the back mountain that Elder Wu had mentioned.

There were indeed signs of recent digging in a secluded spot halfway up the mountain behind the hill.

Ye Chen also saw some peeling stone skin.

It seems Elder Wu was right; he got those stones and clods of earth from here.

These stone patinas look quite new, with a faint residual scent; if you look closely, you can still detect a tiny bit of it.

Ye Chen looked around. Although the back mountain of Luoshui Sect was rarely visited, it was not a remote and desolate place.

The Luoshui Sect has clearly been established in this place for many years, yet this kind of opportunity was still discovered by Elder Wu.

It's hard to say whether Elder Wu was lucky or unlucky.

They discovered an opportunity, but before they could enjoy it, it ended up benefiting Ye Chen!

Ye Chen searched the back mountain carefully, but found nothing else.

Indeed, opportunities still depend on luck!

He eventually returned to Luoshui Sect and found Liu Qing.

The matter has been resolved, and he's in a hurry to go back!

Liu Qing kept his promise and immediately took Ye Chen to the Luoshui Sect's treasury!

The main problem is that not keeping promises is also unacceptable; who would dare offend Ye Chen at this time?

He single-handedly fought four Foundation Establishment cultivators and crippled them all...

So what are a few things compared to being able to get along well with Ye Chen? Besides, it was all agreed upon beforehand!

Liu Qing made an exception and allowed Ye Chen to take one more item.

However, Ye Chen refused.

He has his own principles; things are what they should be, and if he says he'll take two items, he means he'll take two...

The treasure trove of the Luoshui Sect is much larger than that of the Hanmen Sect!

Ye Chen walked around and found that there were indeed many good things inside!

There is another point that people from poor families cannot match.

Moreover, the items here are well-annotated, with almost everything labeled with its name and purpose, which clearly indicates a professional approach.

In the end, Ye Chen chose a bead called "Chongming Pearl" and a large tooth called "Mutant White Tiger Tooth".

It wasn't that he particularly liked these strange and unusual things, but based on his past experience, the stranger something was, the higher its value!

Moreover, both of these items are marked as potentially usable for foundation building!

These few words alone are the reason Ye Chen made the choice.

These days, genuine Foundation Establishment materials are rare and not easy to find; otherwise, there wouldn't be so many rogue cultivators stuck at the Qi Refining stage!

It would be difficult for others to find even one of these items, but there are about five similar items in the treasure vault. This is the profound heritage of a major sect!

That's why so many independent cultivators are desperate to join major sects.

Although major sects have more rules and regulations, they offer more benefits and opportunities to acquire them!

Of course, it's not certain that these things can guarantee a foundation for cultivation.

Whether one can establish a foundation can only be determined through actual testing, and this is also closely related to individual factors.

Ye Chen chose these two items based on his instincts!

The Chongming Pearl looks like a large pearl, but Ye Chen can't figure out what it is. It looks like the eyeball or a stone of some kind of creature.

【Mutant White Tiger Teeth】It lives up to the word "mutant" because its teeth are over 30 centimeters long. It's hard to imagine how such long teeth could grow. Doesn't it hurt when you eat?

After taking the items, Ye Chen left the treasure vault and had Liu Qing complete the registration before preparing to leave.

Liu Qing handed Elder Wu a plastic bag, and even added some personal tokens of gratitude.

Although Ye Chen had already obtained what he wanted and no longer cared about these things, he still accepted them.

After all, it was something he deserved in the transaction!

Now that he had the storage jade bottle as a cover, he simply put the things away!

Liu Qing also stated that she would not reveal anything about what happened here.

However, Ye Chen told her to just tell the truth to others and not to make up any storylines!

Ye Chen didn't intend to keep what was happening here a secret, and there was nothing to keep secret anyway.

With so many people witnessing it, and so many people talking, it's impossible to keep it a secret.

If we don't let people talk about it, who knows what kind of rumors will spread.

Who knows, by the end, rumors might even spread that Liu Qing and Ye Chen are having an affair...

Anyway, Ye Chen planned to report the truth when he got back, so as not to leave any handle for anyone targeting him.

It's just internal strife within the Luoshui Sect, and Beidou helped quell it, right? There's nothing to hide!

As a member of the Big Dipper and the head of Tian Shu, maintaining the stability of the Xuanmen is his duty.

It's normal to gain some spoils of war during the pacification process!
