"Raise the price!"

This is the only way to slow down this trend.

Of course, once this decision is made, the cultivators below will definitely complain.

But he had no other choice.

I'll endure the hardship below and bear the blame!

I just came up with a solution.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door of the council chamber.

"Elder You... Has the Alliance Leader returned yet?"

With that sound, the door was pushed open.

A shiny bald head appeared in You Mengtian's line of sight.

Without a doubt, it was Guangdong Hongyuan who entered.

Compared to before, his current image has undergone a complete transformation.

He had dark circles under his eyes, looked extremely haggard, and even his breathing seemed a little unsteady.

Seeing Hongyuan like this, You Mengtian gave a bitter smile.

These days, Hongyuan continues to come to the council hall every day to look for Chen Tianwen, just like always.

The frequency is even higher than before.

As Chen Tianwen spent more and more time away from home...

Hongyuan's mental state became increasingly unstable.

If Chen Tianwen doesn't return for several months...

He even suspected that Guangdong would directly attract its own inner demons.

After entering, Hongyuan looked around and found that You Mengtian was still the only one in the council hall. A look of disappointment flashed in his eyes.

"Still not back?"

He clasped his hands together, sighed, and his disappointment was evident.

Seeing his expression, You Mengtian understood him perfectly.

Lifespan is a hurdle that all cultivators face.

If he too faces the prospect of dying from the exhaustion of his lifespan.

Their thirst for the Longevity Pill was even stronger than Hongyuan's.

But Chen Tianwen isn't here right now.

He couldn't alleviate Hongyuan's anxiety either.

There's nothing we can do but let him tough it out on his own.
