Cultivation System: Stronger with Age Chapter 380 - 185: Elixir Moves the Heart, Tier Three Immortal Sword Forms
At this moment, Lin Xuankong gazed at the one hundred elite warriors of Great Xia present, feeling quite sentimental.
Three years ago, he was just a small steward who had recently joined the Yin Talisman Sect. At that time, even the Black Tiger Gang, which ran rampant in Great Marsh Prefecture City, was a colossal power in his eyes. He hadn’t even dared to publicly reveal that he possessed the Nine-Seal Talent!
Merely three years had passed.
Now, the top martial artists from the vast lands of Great Xia, spanning hundreds of thousands of miles, were showing him the utmost respect. The Black Tiger Gang, which he once deeply feared and was extremely wary of, could be easily annihilated by any single person present here!
Thinking of this, Lin Xuankong spoke, "I have always enjoyed artifact refining. Recently, I find myself in need of Geng Metal Crystal Stones, Li Fire Crystal Stones, and Demon Pearls. If Emperor Xiao, Sect Leader Hua, King Yu, King Qi, and all Daoist friends here can help me gather these treasures, I am willing to exchange them for materials of equal value!"
Xiaoo Mingrui, clad in a bright yellow robe, cupped his hands and said, "Mr. Mu, how many Geng Metal Crystal Stones, Li Fire Crystal Stones, and Demon Pearls do you require?"
Lin Xuankong smiled. "The more, the better. Just let me know the total cost, Emperor Xiao, and you can state the price to me!"
Xiaoo Mingrui’s expression turned solemn. "This time, the Eight Great Demon Venerables arrived together, disregarding the threat from the Immortal Sect’s True Inheritance and from Cao Zhen’s Biography, intending to overthrow Great Xia. Mr. Mu, you turned the tide and saved Great Xia from the brink of collapse. To the Great Xia Dynasty, your kindness is akin to a rebirth, and it is only thanks to you, Mr. Mu, that we have survived, avoiding the crisis of immediate annihilation! Such profound kindness... how can we even speak of costs? Moreover, Mr. Mu, your relationship with my daughter Ying’Er is extraordinary. For you to speak of payment is truly too formal!"
Around them, Sect Leader Hua of the Celestial Sect, Chairman Han of the Holy Dragon Association, King Yu, East King, King Qi, and Prince Yi, all wore solemn expressions and repeatedly cupped their hands.
"Mr. Mu, you saved our lives! To speak of costs is indeed too formal!"
"Never mind that Mr. Mu requires these materials now; even if he hadn’t asked, I, Yu Changfeng, would certainly have prepared dozens of Demon Pearls to express my gratitude!"
"From this day forward, the Holy Dragon Association will order all Sect disciples to devote their full efforts to collecting Geng Metal Crystals, Li Fire Crystals, and Demon Pearls!"
Everyone present voiced their agreement, unanimously stating they required no remuneration.
Lin Xuankong looked at the crowd, observing their determined expressions, each one ’adamantly’ refusing any reward.
He shook his head slightly and took out a Magical Gui Ling Elixir from his bosom. Then, he looked at the white-haired Ouyang Qinglan. "Elder Ouyang, come here and take this elixir!"
Upon hearing these words, everyone immediately fixed their gaze on Elder Ouyang Qinglan of the Celestial Sect. Individuals like Sect Leader Hua of the Celestial Sect and President Han of the Holy Dragon Association were particularly alarmed. Sect Leader Hua, especially, recalled Ouyang Qinglan’s previous ’snitching’ incident.
However, even though Sect Leader Hua harbored these thoughts, she absolutely did not dare to voice them, much less ask ’Mu Shiba’ to spare Ouyang Qinglan.
Conversely, Third Princess Xiaoo Ying’Er seemed to have realized something. Her eyes flickered, and a hint of a smile touched her lips as she looked at Lin Xuankong.
The surrounding one hundred Tier Eight and Tier Nine Cultivators, including King Yu and King Qi, were all deathly silent, clearly interpreting this scene as Lin Xuankong making an example of Ouyang Qinglan—killing a chicken to scare the monkeys.
