Chapter 1993 Overexploitation



Suddenly, Little White Crane spread its wings and soared into the sky, rushing towards the horizon.

"Elder Lingxiu, I don't know anything, please don't ask me..."

Looking at the little white crane that had become a tiny black dot in the distance, Elder Lingxiu grinned, took a step, and with a flash of light, appeared on the back of the little white crane in an instant.

Linghe Xiaobai felt a sudden weight on its body and was involuntarily pressed down to the ground.

If you smash it like that, it will definitely turn into a pile of minced meat that you can't even scoop up with a shovel!

Of course, Linghe Xiaobai knew that this was the result of the spell that Elder Lingxiu had cast on him, since he could usually fly with several people on his back without any problems.

"Xiaobai, are you going to tell me or not?"

Elder Lingxiu rode on Little White with a smile, tickling her neck with her slender fingers.

Little White Crane was terrified and cried out, "I'll tell you, okay...?"

The main peak is Yuheng Peak, and the Baohua Hall is located there.

Wearing a white dress, Shao Bailian sat on a futon, meditating. Her face was serene and her mind was as still as water, but a sudden shout caused a ripple in her heart.

"Sect Leader, I have a complaint! Elder Ziyun of Jade Peak has been using the carriage for personal purposes, making the Spirit Garden servant Yefeng cultivate spiritual herbs for three consecutive months, squeezing the energy of the sect's servants. It's truly despicable! The key point is... the key point is that when I asked him for the spiritual herbs he had cultivated, he still wouldn't give them to me!"

Shao Bailian opened her eyes, her clear pupils shining brightly.

Looking at Elder Lingxiu who rushed into Baohua Hall and ran to her, Sect Leader Shao Bailian nodded slightly: "What do you think should be done?"

"Make him hand over those spiritual herbs, give me half and hand over the other half to the sect to replenish the treasury!" Elder Lingxiu said righteously.

Shao Bailian could no longer maintain her calm expression and burst out laughing.

She stretched out her slender finger and pinched Elder Lingxiu's face, laughing and scolding, "You're over 560 years old, how can you still act like a little girl? As an elder of the sect, is it okay for you to tear apart Elder Ziyun's relationship over a few herbs? What will the disciples inside the sect think of you? What will the fellow Daoists outside the sect say about you?"

"It's not just a few herbs, it's hundreds of herbs! In the past three months, Elder Ziyun has been exploiting that servant named Yefeng like a fool. But that servant Yefeng really is a big fool, working himself to the bone to cultivate spiritual flowers and herbs for Elder Ziyun. Yefeng has cultivated at least a hundred herbs for him, and most of them are of superior quality. He even cultivated a top-grade Purple Nether Grass!"

"Servant Ye Feng? The little fool I brought back?" Shao Bailian asked, a hint of understanding on her face.

Six years ago, seeing Ye Feng holding a dirty steamed bun and about to eat it, the carefree Shao Bailian decided to play a trick on him and asked him for one.

Unexpectedly, Ye Feng actually gave it to her. Even though he himself was not full, he gave her three-quarters of the only steamed bun he had. He was such a silly little fool.

I haven't visited him for six whole years; the little fool has now become a big fool.

Interesting, really interesting!

"Yes! Senior Sister Sect Leader, it was clearly you who brought him back, yet Elder Ziyun treats him like this. Aren't you angry? I feel uncomfortable for you!" Elder Lingxiu kept fanning the flames, wishing Shao Bailian would immediately go and settle accounts with Elder Ziyun.

Shao Bailian showed no displeasure, and instead asked, "This Ye Feng should just be a Foundation Establishment stage servant, right? How did he manage to cultivate such a top-grade Purple Nether Grass?"

"I don't know. Maybe he has a talent for being a servant and is born to take care of flowers and plants?" Elder Lingxiu shrugged.

After a moment's thought, Shao Bailian said, "Since you're envious, you can also order this little fool around. Why bother competing with Elder Ziyun? Servants are the sect's servants. Every elder has the right to have servants help you cultivate medicinal herbs, just don't go too far."

"Isn't this going too far? If I were that servant, I would have killed myself by now."

After Elder Lingxiu finished speaking, she stood up and walked outside.

After taking a few steps, she turned back and said, "Am I really going to order that little fool around? If he gets exhausted, I won't be responsible!"

Shao Bailian smiled and uttered a single word: "Good!"

Night was falling.

The night breeze climbed onto the bed and pulled the blanket over me.

He has food to eat during the day and a bed to sleep in at night. He doesn't need the ground to be his bed or the sky to be his blanket. He would wake up laughing every day in his dreams if he could live such a life.

"Hey, you idiot." Wang Fu sat on his bed, picking his toes and gazing at the night wind as he rambled on, "Let me tell you something from the bottom of my heart. A living person can't be too rigid or too honest. If you have ten parts strength, doing five parts of the work is enough. Wouldn't it be better to keep the other five parts for yourself? We servants don't have the chance to become outer disciples, so stop dreaming. Just live a carefree life and that's enough..."

Night Breeze blinked and suddenly said, "I won't feel at ease eating if I don't work hard."

Wang Fu was stunned.

He stared blankly at Ye Feng, and after a long while, he clicked his tongue and said, "Top-notch, absolutely top-notch! I, Wang Fu, have never admired anyone in my life, but you are!"

The other servants living in the same room burst into laughter upon hearing Wang Fu's conversation with Ye Feng.

"Wang Fu, don't waste your energy. We've already said all of this to him."

"Otherwise, why do you think his nickname is 'idiot'?"

"Haha, this is hilarious, cough cough cough..."

Perhaps the voices were too loud, disturbing the outer disciples patrolling outside, for a shout came: "Everyone, go to sleep! Turn off the lights!"

The room quickly became quiet.

The servants were divided into groups of one thousand, living together in close quarters, and each group was overseen by an outer disciple. Even the boldest servant wouldn't dare challenge an outer disciple, since the outer disciple was a true cultivator who could kill with flying swords.

Flying back and forth with a whoosh, and taking lives with a single, swift stroke, decapitating people with incredible speed!

Of course, while some servants were punished for not working properly, none of them were killed. The most severe punishment for a servant was being expelled from the sect.

"You idiot, turn off the lights!" Wang Fu said to Ye Feng in a low voice.

Everyone knows that Ye Feng is a fool, so they all like to order him around. Even though it's just a small thing like turning off the lights, they feel a sense of superiority because of it.

But Ye Feng never felt there was anything wrong with being ordered around. As he always said, he wouldn't feel at ease eating unless he exerted his full energy!

There was an iron rod standing in front of the window, with a small spherical stone wrapped in an iron cover at the top of the rod.

Right now, this little stone is emitting a pale yellow light—this thing is called sunstone, a common mineral that can absorb and store sunlight during the day, and then gradually release the stored sunlight at night. When the lights are turned off, you only need to pull up the outer iron cover to completely cover the sunstone, and the sunlight from the sunstone will be blocked by the iron cover.
