Liu Ruyan fought a fierce tiger but was quickly disadvantaged until Chen Yang intervened, demanding a higher price. After agreeing to the increased cost, Chen Yang joined the fight, and together they drove the tiger away. As they left the deep mountains, Chen Yang requested his payment, which Liu Ruyan promised to deliver later.

Chen Yang understood the other party’s urgency to depart.

After all, securing such a precious item as the Lingzhi would naturally make one eager to return swiftly and find a secure location for dedicated cultivation.

A powerful desire to immediately head back and commence proper cultivation would be completely understandable.

"Very well, I trust you will honor your word," Chen Yang affirmed, offering no further comment.

Given the opponent's formidable strength, it was unlikely they would break their promise.

With the arrangement settled, Liu Ruyan departed with a roar.

After seeing her off, Chen Yang turned his attention towards the backyard kitchen to prepare his morning meal.

Following breakfast, he entered a state of cultivation, diligently working to bolster his power.

He had been stationary at the mid-tier of the Gathering Spirit Realm for an extended period.

Progress was a significant aspiration.

Unbeknownst to him, the afternoon had arrived.

Liu Ruyan upheld her end of the bargain.

Around three, or nearing four o'clock, she dispatched an envoy to deliver the Spirit Stones.

Precisely four hundred pieces were presented.

"Mr. Chen, our boss has a message for you."

The messenger, after handing over the Spirit Stones, did not depart immediately and chose to address Chen Yang.

Chen Yang looked towards him and inquired, "What message is it?"

"She expressed her sincere appreciation for you. Should you ever consider joining our organization, you are welcome to seek her out. You will be treated well."

With that, the messenger concluded his business and left.

Upon hearing this, Chen Yang’s brow furrowed subtly.

However, he kept his thoughts to himself.

He watched as the delivery person made their exit.

"An organization? What kind of entity could she be affiliated with?"

Chen Yang mused, yet lacking any concrete information, he recognized his limited understanding of the cultivation world.

He had no insight into the sheer number of cultivator organizations that might exist within this realm.

"I really must venture out and explore when the opportunity arises, but my immediate priority is enhancing my strength."

Despite Chen Yang's current power seeming quite formidable, he was acutely aware of the immense world beyond and the countless formidable experts yet to be encountered.

He took possession of the Spirit Stones and once again lost himself in cultivation.

A day passed swiftly, and by the following morning, he took two hundred Spirit Stones and journeyed to the Green Cloud Taoist Temple.

All the Spirit Stones were presented to Chen Tianmin.

Throughout this period, Chen Yang had channeled a considerable amount of resources to the Qiu Alliance, the exact quantity unknown to him.

Chen Tianmin had attempted to refuse on multiple occasions, but eventually, he ceased his objections and accepted everything.

Nevertheless, as he accepted the gifts, he instructed Qiu Hongguang to meticulously document each item, intending to repay the generosity once the Qiu Alliance achieved greater stability and development.

"Yang Zi, we have already established several development avenues; there’s no need for you to continue sending resources like this. You require resources for your own cultivation journey as well," Chen Tianmin advised earnestly.

"Uncle, please do not concern yourself with my resources. I have an abundance of them, otherwise, how could I possibly send you so much?" Chen Yang responded with a lighthearted chuckle, offering reassurance.

Chen Tianmin considered his words and found them logical, thus he did not press the matter further.

"Yang Zi, what is the latest news from the outside world? Has there been any activity from the Blood Bat Hall? And I’ve heard whispers of the Five Poisons Cult being particularly active in this region lately. What is the situation with them?"

Although the current period seemed tranquil, Chen Tianmin maintained a constant state of vigilance, rarely venturing out and relying on Chen Yang for intelligence.

Indeed, Chen Yang had been actively gathering information recently and was well-informed.

"There is no need to worry about the Blood Bat Hall; they are situated far away in the provincial capital and are unlikely to investigate our current location. However, the Five Poisons Cult has indeed been causing considerable trouble recently."

"Just a few days ago, some of their members ventured into our village..."

Chen Yang proceeded to recount the incident involving Xiaoxiao and Lingling falling gravely ill.

Upon hearing this account, Chen Tianmin's expression grew grim, and he appeared deeply concerned.

"The Five Poisons Cult is an exceedingly enigmatic organization. Involvement with them inevitably leads to severe consequences. You must exercise extreme caution to ensure the villagers remain safe during this precarious time," Chen Tianmin cautioned with gravity.

"Rest assured, I will exercise the utmost care," Chen Yang assured him with a nod.

After a brief continuation of their conversation, he took his leave from Chen Tianmin's quarters.

His next destination was the abode of Liu the Taoist.

He discovered the elder enthusiastically packing his belongings.

From his demeanor, it was evident he was preparing for an extended journey.

"Old fellow, what are you occupied with?" Chen Yang inquired from the doorway.

Stirred by the voice, Liu the Taoist turned abruptly, his gaze falling upon Chen Yang.

Spotting Chen Yang at his entrance, the old man’s smile widened considerably.

"Ah, Chen Yang, it is you! I am absolutely delighted; I had intended to share some wonderful news with you." Overjoyed, Liu the Taoist ushered Chen Yang into the room.

Chen Yang regarded him with bewilderment, having never witnessed such exuberance from Liu the Taoist before.

"What is this joyous news that has you so elated?" Chen Yang asked, a sense of curiosity piqued.

"Hehe, naturally, it's wonderful news," remarked Liu the Taoist, indulging in a moment of playful teasing before revealing, "Word has arrived from Lion Tiger Mountain; they claim to have discovered an exceptionally gifted disciple for me to mentor." "The future of my Chi Yun lineage is now assured," he declared with palpable elation. Upon hearing this, Chen Yang grasped the situation instantly. This explained the old man's considerable excitement. "So, you're preparing to depart for Lion Tiger Mountain, are you?" Chen Yang inquired. "Indeed, precisely so. I must reach there without delay, lest those other venerable figures at Lion Tiger Mountain abscond with my promising disciple," Liu the Taoist replied joyfully, resuming his packing with enthusiasm. Initially, Chen Yang remained silent, but after a period of contemplation, he sensed a subtle incongruity in the unfolding events.
