The bearded man walked into the inner market and came to a shop.
"Zhao Jiang, is there another business coming?" The shopkeeper asked with a smile when he saw Zhao Jiang.
Zhao Jiang smiled and nodded, "What we want this time is the Ice Wing Pill, Manager Liu, let's follow the old rules." Registration is required when buying ninth-level pills, so Manager Liu's help is needed, and of course there will be benefits as well.
"Okay! I'll get it for you right away." Shopkeeper Liu turned and walked into the inner room. Ninth-level elixirs were incredibly precious throughout the Tianyue Continent. Not only were the herbs required difficult to find, but even their sect leader was the only Ninth-level alchemist in the entire Tianyue Continent. Therefore, it was impossible for a Ninth-level elixir to be left out in the open.
The bearded man walked into the lounge and sat down on a chair, waiting for Shopkeeper Liu. Ninth-level elixirs were so precious that the transaction couldn't be conducted in the hall.
Shopkeeper Liu walked into the lounge holding a small wooden box and handed it to the bearded man, "Take a look." There were only about fifty ninth-level pills in the entire inner market, and only after they were sold could one apply to the sect for more.
The bearded man took the small wooden box, opened it, and took out the jade bottle containing the ninth-level Ice Wing Pill. He carefully opened it and smelled the medicinal fragrance emanating from the jade bottle. He greedily took a breath and said, "I wish I could have a ninth-level pill someday."
Elder Liu laughed heartily, "With your current level of cultivation, even a ninth-level elixir would be useless."
"That's true." The bearded man smiled as he closed the jade bottle and put it into the small wooden box. "Elder Liu, I'll be leaving now. I'll give you the spirit stones in two days."
"Okay." Elder Liu nodded with a smile, but then his smile froze, and an expression of extreme fear appeared on his face. He looked at the man and woman who appeared in the lounge at some point, "Master... Sect Leader..." It's over!
The bearded man couldn't help but sweat, and his legs began to tremble. Why did the Sect Master and his men appear here? What should he do now?
"You are so brave." Zhan Yi looked at the two of them coldly.
Shopkeeper Liu and the bearded man quickly knelt on the ground and kept begging, "Master, please spare us! Master, please spare us! Master, please spare us!" There was endless fear in their trembling voices.
Zhan Yihan snorted coldly and said, "Go to the torture hall and be punished." He would never tolerate such things.
"Yes..." Shopkeeper Liu and the bearded man trembled in their responses. They had no chance of resistance in front of the two sect masters. Their power was beyond their reach.
Zhan Yihan and Su Jinyue took a step forward and disappeared on the spot, just as silently as they had arrived.
Shopkeeper Liu and the bearded man collapsed to the ground, their faces pale as paper. They hadn't considered the consequences of being discovered by the sect when they did this, but the profit was so huge that they chose to take the risk.
Su Jinyue and Zhan Yihan returned to the sect and immediately summoned the elders to discuss matters in the conference hall.
"Master! This was my mistake. Please forgive me. I will conduct more rigorous investigations in the future and will never let this happen again." The Fifth Elder looked at Su Jinyue and Zhan Yihan with guilt. The Master had placed so much trust in him, yet he had let her down.
Zhan Yihan nodded slightly and looked at the Seventh Elder, "This matter must be dealt with strictly."
"Yes!" replied the Seventh Elder.
"Inspect all the stores and severely punish anyone involved in this incident," Zhan Yihan ordered.
"Yes!" replied the fifth elder.
After the elders left, Su Jinyue shook his head and sighed, "It's really not easy to govern a sect." These days, when they were processing documents, they often found some small problems. Although they would not affect the sect, they could not be ignored.
Zhan Yihan curled his lips, reached out and held Su Jinyue's hand, gazing at her gently, "I will handle these official matters from now on." He also felt distressed to see her worrying about these trivial matters.
"I'm afraid you'll be tired." Su Jinyue smiled. Although they were just trivial matters, some of them were still very annoying to deal with.
Zhan Yihan smiled and ruffled Su Jinyue's hair, "I'm a man, it's okay to be a little tired."
Su Jinyue looked up at Zhan Yihan, "But I will feel bad." She didn't care about the sect's affairs before, but now she knows that it is really not easy to manage a sect.
Zhan Yihan raised his lips and smiled, his eyes filled with affection as he looked at Su Jinyue, "Little fool." How could he not love her from the bottom of his heart?
At this time, a flying sword carrying a letter flew into the conference hall.
Zhan Yihan raised his hand and a flying sword letter landed in his hand. He opened it and took a look. "In this sect competition, our sect has won consecutive victories. Ouyang Qi, Lin Qianye, Yao Zheng and ten other disciples have advanced to the top 20."
"I knew they wouldn't let us down," Su Jinyue said happily. If Feng Tianzong could win the sect exchange meeting this time, Feng Tianzong's position in Tianyue Continent would be further consolidated.
Zhan Yihan smiled and nodded, "Then let's wait for their good news."
"They will definitely win. I have great confidence in them," Su Jinyue said confidently. She and Yihan had carefully selected those disciples, and she had even revised the techniques they practiced.
"Yeah." Zhan Yihan nodded in agreement.
Su Jinyue thought of Su Yanxi and Su Yanqi, who were training outside. "I wonder how my second and third brothers are doing now?" They had gone to Death Canyon, one of the ten most dangerous places. They were said to be teeming with high-level spirit beasts, fraught with danger. Although she had given each of them two ninth-level demon beasts, she couldn't help but feel a little worried.
Zhan Yihan reached out and rubbed Su Jinyue's hair, and comforted her softly, "Don't worry, they are quite strong." His Jinyue was really worried about him.
"I'll go see Yingli and Youyou." Su Jinyue stood up.
"Yeah." Zhan Yihan nodded.
Deep in the canyon, Su Yanxi and Su Yanqi stood beside a swamp. At a glance, they saw black fog everywhere.
"This should be miasma. Let's take a detoxification pill before we go." Su Yanxi said. They had been in Death Canyon for over a month. It was indeed full of dangers, but they had also gained a lot of benefits and their cultivation had been improved.
Su Yanqi nodded, took out a bottle of detoxification pills, opened it, poured out one, and gave another to Su Yanxi.
"Two senior brothers, could you give us some detoxification pills?" a man in green asked. They were from Snow Hill Nation's Tianyao Valley and had come to the Death Canyon for training. The Death Canyon was not only one of the ten most dangerous places in the Sunshine Nation, but also in the Snow Hill Nation. Both nations had access to the Death Canyon.
