Chapter 144 Don't Test Them
"No, Master didn't do it on purpose. He's been so focused on alchemy and has been fasting for a long time that he completely forgot I'm still a baby who needs to eat."
If I weren't clever, with my short arms and legs, it would have taken me three days to find my uncle and beg for food; I might have really starved to death!
For a long time, I grew up under the sect leader's wing, and that's how we became friends.
Geng Yu nudged Zhong Qi with his elbow.
Zhong Qi resumed his taciturn demeanor and nodded reservedly.
"Will the auction be held with your master or with us?"
"Follow our grandmaster!"
"Alright, we'll leave right after the auction. Now you all need to go and cultivate."
"okay!"
The two rested for a day and were preparing to go to Lingbao Pavilion when they opened the door.
Jian Wu and Mu Sen each led a group of people to stand at the door like gatekeepers.
"Master! Didn't my little disciple say you wanted to see me?"
"Alright! Come in first and we'll talk."
Tu Shan sat at the table, Jian Wu and Mu Sen sat down, and the others stood behind them.
Mu Sen brought Geng Yu and Zhong Qi with him.
Jian Wu brought Cheng Nan, Jin Zhilin, and Jian Leng with him.
Ji Se quietly moved behind Jian Wu.
Cheng Nan and the other two glanced at her, then glanced at her again, before staring intently at the top of Jian Wude's head.
"I have something to do later, so let's get straight to the point. I have a thousand Nascent Soul Pills on hand right now. I'll pay 400,000 per pill, and you can have any of the excess. I won't split the cost! How many can you take?"
Mu Sen immediately declared, "Master, don't doubt it. We'll eat as much as you give us."
"Alright, don't say I'm being unfair. Five hundred each, and the spirit stones will be paid on the spot. Twenty high-grade spirit stones each."
Mu Sen was not short of spirit stones, so he immediately took out twenty high-grade spirit stones.
Without hesitation, Jian Wu took out twenty high-grade spirit stones.
"Come on, distribute the pills yourselves."
A wooden basin appeared on the table, filled with sixth-grade pills.
Jin Zhilin raised his eyebrows, looking surprised.
Jian Wu rubbed his thumb and forefinger together.
"Cheng Nan, we're planning to accompany Ji Se on her training trip. Are you coming?"
Anyone who understands understands.
Jian Wu wished he could nod in agreement for him immediately.
"Who else?"
“Zhong Qi, Geng Yu, me, and your junior sister.”
Mu Sen gave Zhong Qi and Geng Yu an approving look.
Musen: You two brats are something else!
Zhong Qi: Of course, it's all thanks to me.
Geng Yu: Hehe! Pretty impressive, huh?
Ji Se rolled her eyes: "Why are you looking at me? Go if you want to."
Cheng Nan certainly wanted to go, but his skills were too weak and he would easily hold the team back.
"I want to go, but my abilities..."
"Stop dawdling. As long as you follow instructions, there won't be any problems."
"I go!"
"Okay, then for the next few days, you'll be working directly with us."
Tu Shan didn't want to waste time; she still had things to do.
"A cheap apprentice!"
Mu Sen smiled, his face crinkling with wrinkles: "Master, what are your orders?"
"What happened to what I asked you to do?"
"Could you please provide a hint?"
Tu Shan rolled her eyes: "The Misty Immortal Sect, Hua Buhui!"
Mu Sen placed the items on the table: "A ninth-tier magic robe, 50,000 high-grade spirit stones, plus my half."
I glanced at the quantity and it was correct. The item was scanned and it was indeed Rank 9. I accepted it immediately.
"Master, Hua Buhui asked me to pass on a message to you!"
"what?"
"His mouth is very tight!"
"Alright, nothing else, you can go now, we have other things to do."
Mu Sen left with a grin, but seeing that Jian Wu didn't move, he scurried back and sat down.
Tu Shan turned to look at Jian Wu: "Is there anything else?"
"Can we bring both of them along?"
"What do you say?!"
Jian Wu raised his hand as if to swear: "I can guarantee that they'll both be fine!"
Tu Shan looked up at Ji Se and saw that she didn't say anything.
"Alright, this is the only time. Don't let it happen again. You know what I'm capable of."
"Of course!"
"You want to come with me on this training trip?"
Jin Zhilin and Jian Leng were puzzled, but when they thought of Jian Wu's actions just now, they nodded in tacit agreement.
"If you follow me, you must obey my or her commands." Tu Shan pointed at Ji Se: "When you're out in the world, there's no such thing as sect identity. Can you accept that?"
Jin Zhilin: "Okay!"
Jian Leng nodded.
"You know, it's 10,000 high-grade spirit stones per person."
Without a second's hesitation, Jian Wu took out 20,000 high-grade spirit stones.
Jin Zhilin: What's going on? Do we have to pay protection money to follow Tu Shan?
Jian Leng: Isn't this the spirit stone that Master gave to Uncle-Master to use for auctioning things?
"Alright, I'll take the things. You two can leave now!"
Jane left, completely unsatisfied.
Mu Sen walked up to Tu Shan, crouched down, and smiled obsequiously, "Master, their sect already has four. Do you think we should be fair and send two more?"
Tu Shan looked around.
Geng Yu, Fire Spirit Root.
Zhong Qi, with a golden spiritual root.
Cheng Nan, Wood Spirit Root.
Ji Se, Ice Spirit Root.
Jin Zhilin, Jin Linggen.
Jian Wu, Wind Spirit Root.
"Sure, but you must have water and earth spiritual roots. Most importantly, you must be tight-lipped and have decent character. Otherwise, don't blame me for being ruthless."
Mu Sen smiled like a big chrysanthemum: "Okay, okay, I'll have someone send it over right away."
Geng Yu complained, "Master, can you please stop smiling so fake?"
"You brat, shut up. This is 20,000 high-grade spirit stones."
"Alright, get lost!"
Tu Shan waved her hand and looked at the five people, saying, "She and I are going to Lingbao Pavilion. If you want to go, come along."
Seeing that the five people had no objections.
"We'll set off in batches. Ji Se and I will go together, and the five of you can do whatever you want. When you get to Lingbao Pavilion, tell them you're looking for Young Master Lou Xiyue. We'll meet there then."
Not long after Tu Shan and Ji Se left, Zhong Qi and Geng Yu also came out of the room.
Jin Zhilin and Jian Leng both looked at Cheng Nan.
Cheng Nan glanced back at his two senior brothers without showing any emotion, but inside he was panicking.
Jin Zhilin said seriously, "Junior brother, why did Master give her ten thousand high-grade spirit stones? That's ten thousand high-grade spirit stones."
"You'll know this price is cheaper from now on, but we can't say anything else!"
"Ten thousand high-grade spirit stones is cheap?"
Jin Zhilin and Jian Leng couldn't imagine what kind of thing would make them think it was cheap.
"Yes, and as your junior brother, I have a piece of advice for you: it's best to listen to whatever she says. You can raise your opinions if you have any, but never act first and ask for her permission later, or she might really kill you."
Jin Zhilin's curiosity about Tu Shan reached its peak: "Isn't she afraid of the sect behind us?"
"Do you think she's afraid? You'll see how confident she is later."
After Cheng Nan finished speaking, he paused for a moment and said, "Actually, she is a very nice person, but she is very busy. I just hope you won't try to test her. She hates it when people try to test her."
To put it simply, her master and Elder Musen never tested her, which is why they were able to continue to benefit from following her.
You know the Eight Eccentric Monsters of the Misty Sky, right?
"Of course!"
"Two of them tried to test her, and they stripped her down to her underwear, leaving her barely alive. At that time, she was only at the Foundation Establishment stage."
Jin Zhilin felt a chill run down his spine.
"If I remember correctly, the lowest cultivation level of the Eight Eccentric Monsters is the Nascent Soul stage, right?"
How did she manage to reach the Foundation Establishment stage in one go?
