Chapter 40: The Elder Holding the Furnace



Feng An felt a chill down his spine and couldn't understand Han Dong's behavior.

"Han Dong is really a madman. He killed so many disciples of his sect. Isn't he afraid of being punished? Is he really not afraid of death?"

But Feng An didn't dare to ask in detail at the door of the Law Enforcement Hall, so he could only wink at Kong Ju.

"Junior Brother Kong Ju, we haven't completed the herb-collecting mission for Lingyu Pavilion yet. Junior Sister Zhou said she wants to wait for you to come with us."

"Let's go over and settle this first."

Kong Ju naturally understood that Feng An had many questions to ask, so he nodded imperceptibly.

Along the way, Feng An was extremely curious about the affairs of the Frost Moon Altar.

After all, this was the biggest disaster he had ever experienced.

Kong Ju simply repeated what he had heard from the Law Enforcement Hall, and ended with Han Dong being severely injured by a master from the sect and escaping.

When the word "master" was mentioned, Kong Ju deliberately glanced at Zhou Tingyu next to him.

The latter stuck out his tongue and did not say Huangfu Wuqin's name.

He should have received the same instructions as Kong Ju.

It took the three of them half an hour to walk all the way and finally arrived at Lingyu Pavilion.

The one responsible for receiving them was the senior sister Sun Feiyuan.

Seeing the arrival of the only three survivors from the herb-collecting team that had been sent to Frost Moon Altar, the senior sister who was in charge of dispatching missions at Lingyu Pavilion also revealed some emotion.

The matter of Frost Moon Altar has not yet spread widely in Cangwu Sect, and few people know the news.

However, Sun Feiyuan, who was in charge of registering the herbalists that time, obviously knew about it.

"You three are truly blessed." Sun Feiyuan congratulated the three on their safe return in a veiled tone.

Kong Ju, Zhou Tingyu and Feng An smiled at each other and didn't say much.

At Kong Ju's signal, Zhou Tingyu, who was in charge of collecting the harvest, immediately handed the bag of spiritual medicine containing Yue Ning Bing Zhi to Sun Feiyuan and said with a sweet smile, "Senior Sister, please count it. This is the harvest of the three of us."

Sun Feiyuan took the elixir bag, her eyes were absorbed into it, her expression was moved for the second time, and she was obviously shocked by the amount of Yue Ning Bing Zhi in it.

But as part of her duty, she still counted the spiritual herbs inside and said, "Twenty in total."

"Apart from the sect's requirement of collecting three plants per person, there are still eleven plants left."

In fact, there were twenty-two plants. At that time in the Frost Moon Altar Canyon, Kong Ju and Feng An each took one to alleviate the side effects of the explosive pill.

But a harvest of twenty plants is also quite good.

You know, it is not easy for each person to complete the task of collecting three plants of Moon Condensed Ice Ganoderma at Frost Moon Altar, and spiritual medicine is not so easy to find.

"As for the remaining eleven plants, do you three want to hand them over to the sect and compensate you with ten spirit crystals and five contribution points for each extra plant, or do you want to keep them for yourselves?" Sun Feiyuan, holding the spirit bag, asked for the opinions of the three people in accordance with the sect's rules.

"Hand them all over. We have no use for them anyway. Exchange them for contribution points, which will be very useful in the future." Feng An whispered to Kong Ju and expressed his opinion: "Contribution points are not easy to earn. They are much more expensive than spirit crystals."

Kong Ju trusted Feng An. Even this person who had been working in the outer sect for so many years said that contribution points were of great use. Naturally, he would not object.

"Just follow what Senior Brother Feng said."

"I'm fine with anything!" Zhou Ting shrugged indifferently.

The three of them reached a consensus, and Kong Ju turned to Sun Feiyuan and said politely: "Then I'll trouble you, Senior Sister, to exchange the extra Yue Ning Bing Zhi for spirit crystals and contribution points."

As they spoke, the three of them took out their outer disciple badges and handed them to Sun Feiyuan.

After the latter performed some operations, he handed the badges to the three people, along with one hundred and eleven spirit crystals.

"The basic reward for a sect appointment is 20 spirit crystals and 10 contribution points per person."

"The extra Yue Ning Bing Zhi that you handed in totaled 55 contribution points and 110 spirit crystals. The contribution points have been recorded on your respective waist badges. Each person has a total of 28 contribution points. You can divide the spirit crystals among yourselves."

With Sun Feiyuan's chuckle, the assignment of this collection mission came to an end.

Kong Ju and the other two each gained 28 points of sect contribution.

And he was distributed about fifty-six spirit crystals.

Of course, these rewards are nothing compared to what the three of them actually gained from this trip to the Frost Moon Altar.

The three of them bid farewell to Sun Feiyuan calmly, found a deserted place, and began to discuss how to deal with the Twin Ice Zhi.

"A second-grade spiritual medicine involves too much. If it is not handled properly, it may attract the covetousness of other fellow disciples." Feng An said in a low voice: "My opinion is to take it to the spiritual market outside the sect, sell it for a good price, and then sneak it back. I know a fairly fair merchant."

Kong Ju didn't trust the Lingshi outside, and expressed his concerns: "The reason why they are fair is because what Senior Brother Feng took was not worth their efforts. The value of the Twin Ice Ganoderma is enough to make the strong people of the Shenglun realm covet it, and there is no guarantee that the people of Lingshi will be greedy. Our realm is too low, and I am afraid we can't keep this wealth."

After hearing Kong Ju's words, Feng An's face became calm and his brows were furrowed, because he could not refute it.

Money can move people's hearts. Even fellow disciples in the Frost Moon Altar might fight among themselves over a few Moon Condensing Ice Ganoderma, not to mention the more valuable Moon Condensing Ice Ganoderma.

How to deal with the Twin Ice Zhi is also a troublesome matter.

"Oh!" Kong Ju sighed, also looking worried and a little troubled.

The bottom line is that they are too weak. If they had the strength of the first echelon of the outer sect, how could they be so cautious?

Suddenly, Kong Qi caught a glimpse of Zhou Tingyu blinking innocently beside him.

An idea came to his mind, and he thought to himself, "Why not let Zhou Tingyu go and ask?"

There is no wrong version in the 1619 book forum!

This idea made Kong Ju's eyes light up. This girl usually keeps a low profile, and since she was able to invite Huangfu Wuqin, there must be some power behind her.

It would be best to let her ask.

So Kong Ju turned his face towards Zhou Tingyu and asked in a questioning tone: "Junior Sister Zhou, what do you think?"

When Feng An heard Kong Ju asking Zhou Tingyu, he just pursed his lips. Although he was very grateful to Zhou Tingyu for healing his injuries, he usually discussed things with Kong Ju.

In his opinion, Zhou Tingyu was still a little girl and she didn't have any good ideas.

Who knew that Zhou Tingyu tilted her head slightly, thought for a moment and then said, "I do have an aunt from the same clan who works in the Alchemy Pavilion."

Feng An immediately became interested and asked, "What position does the noble aunt hold in the Alchemy Pavilion?"

"It seems to be the furnace-holding elder." Zhou Tingyu said excitedly: "Oh, by the way, her name is Zhou Shangxiang."

"Master Zhilu! Zhou Shangxiang! That's your aunt!" Feng An's jaw almost dropped.

The Elder in Charge of Furnaces is the final decision maker who is responsible for whether the elixirs refined by all the furnaces in the Alchemy Pavilion are qualified or not. Apart from the Pavilion Master of the Alchemy Pavilion, she has the most power.

Putting aside his status in the Alchemy Pavilion, other elders in the sect also have to greet the Elder in Charge of the Furnace with a smile.

Everyone has a situation where they need to make elixirs. There will always be a time when they need help from others.

Feng An didn't think Zhou Tingyu was someone who had such a powerful aunt, so he couldn't help but sigh: "Junior Sister Zhou, why didn't you say so earlier!"

"I was just about to say that, but you didn't ask me!" Zhou Tingyu touched the back of her head in confusion.

Kong Ju did not reveal Zhou Tingyu's identity as a second-generation immortal, but just laughed and said, "Haha, don't worry about it. Give this Twin Ice Ganoderma to Zhou Tingyu. Her aunt is the furnace-controlling elder. She will have no problem processing a second-grade spiritual medicine. I believe she will not embezzle her niece's things."

"Once we determine the value, we'll divide it."

"Junior Sister Zhou, is everything okay?" Kong Ju symbolically asked for Zhou Tingyu's opinion.

"Oh, then I'll go ask. But my aunt is watching a furnace of expensive elixir being refined recently. It may take a month or two for her to come out of seclusion." Zhou Tingyu said truthfully: "We'll go then."

"Okay, one or two months won't make a difference." Kong Ju nodded.

Finally, the fate of Bingzhi was finalized.

After the three agreed to meet again on another day, they went their separate ways.

Because the story of Frost Moon Altar has ended   It is time to transition to the next plot, this line is the main line

The plot needs to be polished and a small outline needs to be written. This will ensure that the follow-up will not collapse.

So the last two chapters are more about daily life

Don't worry, there will be better stories to come.

Also ask for a wave of votes and collections

Once I have written a solid outline, I believe the story presented will satisfy everyone.

(End of this chapter)
