Shu Jianyue returned to the Supreme God Temple, took Xiaoyi out of the space, handed her over to Chaotian, and sat in the main hall waiting for Grandmaster Uncle Tiande to come.

But she didn't come, so he told Chaotian what she looked like and then left it at that.

Come if you want, don't come if you don't want.

Amy didn't go to the Supreme Temple because she went to find allies, but none of the Holy Spirits were willing to go with her to investigate the Supreme Temple's true strength.

Indeed, many of the people she recruited had received preferential treatment before; how could they possibly be foolish enough to go and die?

Ai Meizhen returned to Tiande Sect and discussed the matter with several elders. They decided to go to Shenzhou to invite someone down to take charge, even if it meant they would only take a small share.

Shu Jianyue was naturally unaware of this, so she was leisurely sitting in a rocking chair, munching on spiritual fruit and watching Wu Yan and Yu Chuan teach Si Huaijin how to cultivate.

She, as the master, had it easy, simply sitting on the sidelines watching the show.

Chao Tian walked over and looked at the scene, and couldn't help but laugh, "Master is quite leisurely."

Shu Jianyue glanced at him. "Where? I'm just supervising."

"Xuan Ye, the chief disciple of Fuxian Mountain, has broken through to the True Immortal Realm and sent us an invitation to the celebration banquet tomorrow," Chaotian said, handing her the invitation.

Shu Jianyue took it and glanced at it, thinking, who knows if Lou Qiongshang will become her son-in-law in the future, I still have to give him face.

So he said, "Go prepare the gifts, I'll take a few of the younger ones with me."

He nodded to the sky, "Okay."

"By the way, if Grandmaster Dezong comes that day, no matter what his purpose is, he must send me a telepathic message." Shu Jianyue was afraid that she would take advantage of her absence to catch them off guard.

Although she herself couldn't beat her, she could still bluff her a bit.

Thinking of this, Shu Jianyue wanted to use the two Dust Hearts that Chongjiu had given her, but she held back.

You have to listen to her; she has more experience with moxibustion than you do.

He nodded to the sky. "Okay, I'll be careful."

"Do you need the sky to come with you?"

Shu Jianyue shook her head, "No need, let him train those spirit beasts well and try to train a spirit beast army for the Supreme God Temple as soon as possible."

"Now let's see who dares to try and take people away."

Chao Tian smiled and nodded, "The sky has found more than a thousand spirit beasts, eight hundred of which are at or above the Transformation stage. Master's idea will not be difficult to realize."

The sky itself is a divine beast, so summoning spirit beasts is naturally a piece of cake for him.

The Spirit Nourishing Pills distributed by the Supreme Temple further solidified the spirit beasts' resolve to stay in the Supreme Temple.

Many spirit beasts broke through to the next level after consuming the Spirit Nourishing Pill, and some even improved their bloodline power. These discoveries excited them so much that they almost swore to cling to the Supreme God Temple.

Shu Jianyue nodded, took out about ten baskets of spirit fruits and two baskets of cabbage and gave them to him, saying, "Let me know if you run out."

Chao Tian put away the spirit fruits and jade whites. "There are still quite a few left from what I was given last time. They are usually given as rewards for completing tasks."

"It's alright, keep some for yourself and give some to Sky. There probably won't be much left." Lingguo Shujianyue had plenty of space, so she was always very generous with this. Chaotian, Sky, and the children ate as much as they wanted.

He nodded to the sky, glanced at Si Huaijin, and left.

As soon as they walked up to the sky, Gong Funan, whom they hadn't seen since they came up, suddenly appeared in front of her. Looking at him, she said, "You lied to me."

Shu Jianyue raised an eyebrow, "What did I lie to you about?"

Gong Funan pointed in the direction Chaotian left and said, "You said five a month, but you just gave him so many at once."

"The Supreme Temple only has so many disciples, it wouldn't need that many a month."

Shu Jianyue glanced at him. "The Supreme Temple isn't just about the Holy Spirit. Besides, I'll give him extra to keep on hand, just in case he doesn't have enough and can't get any, which would be so embarrassing."

"Hmph, I don't care, I want to raise prices." Gong Funan turned his head to one side, but his eyes were on Shu Jianyue out of the corner of his eye.

Shu Jianyue naturally saw it, but raising prices was out of the question.

If he raises prices so easily this time, what about next time? Will he just raise prices whenever he wants?

"A few days ago, the Tiande Sect came to the Supreme God Palace to snatch people. Why didn't you intervene?" If he hadn't appeared in front of her, she wouldn't have remembered. Now that he's here, she's going to hold a grudge.

Gong Funan coughed lightly, shifting his gaze, and said, "I wasn't in the Supreme Temple at the time; I went out, so..."

Shu Jianyue squinted at him, "You went out? Weren't you avoiding the people above? Aren't you afraid someone will find out about you?"

At this point, Gong Funan's expression turned serious. "Last month, people from above came down. I went to find out what they were doing there. If they were looking for me, staying in the Supreme Temple would only cause trouble for the Supreme Temple."

As soon as he said that, Shu Jianyue felt that she was narrow-minded.

Look at other people's vision, then look at your own—you're too narrow-minded.

Although he might not be discovered even if he stayed in the Supreme Temple and didn't go out, it's wrong for him to make wild guesses when others are so considerate of the Supreme Temple.

Shu Jianyue coughed lightly and said, "I'm sorry, I was being narrow-minded."

"However, they probably didn't come down here for you."

Gong Funan shook his head, "It's alright. You weren't in the Supreme Temple at the time, so it's normal for you to think that way."

“I went to check. They’re not from the Upper God Realm. They must be from Shenzhou. I wonder if they’re here for me.”

"You're back. Where is the God?"

Shu Jianyue pointed upwards with her index finger and said, "He went up to investigate some things."

Gong Funan thought for a moment and asked, "Should we investigate that Duan Lanqiu?"

Shu Jianyue shook her head. "No, but if the matter involves him, Chongjiu won't let him get away with it for long."

"We're going out to a banquet tomorrow. Could you keep an eye on the Supreme Temple? If anyone comes looking for trouble, could you help fend them off?"

Gong Funan nodded, "Okay, no problem."

"Now let's talk about my compensation. The price of spiritual fruit needs to be increased."

Shu Jianyue smiled, "Okay, I'll raise it for you. How much do you want?"

Based on what he said before, she would feel embarrassed if he didn't raise the price.

Gong Funan had already thought it through, so he made a gesture, "At least this much."

Shu Jianyue looked at his strange gesture and asked, "What are you gesturing for?"

Forgive her, she really didn't understand.

"Ten fruits. You need to give me ten spirit fruits a month." Gong Funan stared at her intently, as if afraid she would try to bargain.

Shu Jianyue readily agreed, "Okay, I'll talk to Chaotian, starting this month."

Gong Funan left satisfied.

Li day.

Shu Jianyue, along with Yu Zhong, Yan Xi, Wu Yan, and Si Huaijin, left the Supreme God Palace and headed towards Fuxian Mountain.

Lou Qiongshang went into seclusion, so the Grand Elder of Fuxian Mountain took over the position of patriarch, entertaining guests from various sects in the main hall.
