Chapter 205
Since things had come to this, he had to accept this mission. Fortunately, he had already achieved Qi Refining into Gang Qi, and the degree of danger was not that great.
Taking the mission token, he went down the mountain with the three of Lu Ren and walked toward Qingyang City.
Along the way, the atmosphere was somewhat silent.
Although the relationship between Xu Yang and Lu Ren was special, they had also had several conflicts, and he had even defeated Lu Ren in the martial arts exam, so Lu Ren did not take the initiative to speak to him.
He refused Gu Haoming's solicitation, and Gu Haoming had even once declared that he would make him unable to move an inch in the Profound Heaven Sect.
He didn't know if today's matter was Xiao Hua's own doing or if Gu Haoming was involved, because he couldn't determine whether Gu Haoming took this mission actively or was specified by Xiao Hua like him.
So Gu Haoming didn't speak to him either.
As for the other person, Xu Yang had no impression, so he didn't take the initiative to talk.
Walking all the way, the three soon entered Qingyang City and found the place that needed to be guarded.
This was a shop called Baiyao Hall, which was a place specifically used by the Profound Heaven Sect to collect medicinal herbs.
Qingyang City is located in the hinterland of the Yunling Mountain Range and is a natural treasure house. Many martial artists come here to find treasures. If they find spiritual herbs or old herbs that they cannot use, most of them will choose to sell them in Qingyang City.
Baiyao Hall does the business of this group of people. The medicinal herbs received, if useful, are digested by the sect, and if not useful, they are sold.
The four showed their mission tokens and soon passed through the shop to the backyard, where they saw a young man with a sharp aura.
This person was named Jin Lei, and he was also one of the outer sect disciples, but not from the same session as Xu Yang and the others, but a disciple from the previous session.
"Listen well, your mission is to ensure that the warehouse does not have problems, and also to ensure the safety of the shop. If you die, the medicinal herbs cannot have problems.
When guarding, keep your eyes open, don't let people slit your throat without knowing it. For the first month, you are responsible for guarding at night..."
Jin Lei explained some things, arranged the patrol range for the four, and left directly.
At this time, Xu Yang knew that the person was named Hu Fengyi, and he and Gu Haoming guarded the entrance of the warehouse, responsible for checking the identity of people entering.
He and Lu Ren were responsible for patrolling around the warehouse.
The next few days were safe and sound. Xu Yang guarded Baiyao Hall at night and returned to the Profound Heaven Sect to practice during the day.
The time used for cultivation was much less, but fortunately, he had already achieved Qi Refining into Gang Qi, and even when patrolling, his cultivation was slowly growing.
And he could only practice the Bear Sutra of Bearing the Mountain and the Diamond Gang Technique now, so less time had little impact, and gradually he adapted to this life.
In the past few days, he also learned some things. Lu Ren, Gu Haoming, and Hu Fengyi were all friends, and the three of them had agreed to take this mission together. Only he was forcibly arranged by Xiao Hua.
Time flew by, and it was time to issue Qi-Gathering Pills again. This time, Xu Yang successfully received the elixirs without any trouble.
He swallowed one on the spot and found that it was indeed as rumored; Qi-Benefiting Pills had little effect on Marrow Cleansing martial artists and were not as obvious as when he was at the Qi Gathering realm.
He put away the remaining two, intending to sell them when he had the chance, and turned into the restaurant, soon seeing Qin Ze and the others.
"Let's talk about the progress in cultivation first. Has anyone achieved Qi Refining into Gang Qi?" Qin Ze spoke first.
Without strength, an alliance is a joke, so what everyone cares about most is the progress of strength.
Yue Gui said: "I achieved Qi Refining into Gang Qi five days ago."
"I also achieved Qi Refining into Gang Qi."
The person who said this was Liu Qian. She had a calm smile on her face, and she had actually achieved Qi Refining into Gang Qi.
Added to Qin Ze, the alliance suddenly had three experts who had achieved Qi Refining into Gang Qi.
Although compared to those old disciples of the outer sect, Qi Refining into Gang Qi was nothing, but among the new disciples, this was definitely a cultivation level that walked ahead of most people.
"I am still a bit short." Chen Jiang's voice was a bit weak.
Immediately afterward, everyone looked at Xu Yang.
He pondered for a while and said: "Within a month, I should be able to break through."
He did not intend to tell about achieving Qi Refining into Gang Qi for the time being.
Last time, he only revealed the Wind-Thunder Force, and the next day the Qunying Society came to the door. Although it didn't cause trouble, it was triggered by this.
And there was Xiao Hua targeting him, which he also guessed might be related to this.
If he were just a mediocre person, let alone Xiao Hua framing him a few words, even if he slapped him a few times, he would be powerless to resist.
But he became a genius who could almost rival the Ten Elites, so Xiao Hua would naturally worry about his revenge after he grew up and would make things difficult for him.
Qin Ze said: "Now the alliance already has three experts who have achieved Qi Refining into Gang Qi, which is very good. Next time we meet, everyone should be able to achieve Qi Refining into Gang Qi."
Speaking of this, everyone showed a smile.
Although some people had not produced Gang Qi, this step could not stop everyone's pace.
Yue Gui said: "This time, let's add a resource sharing link. I don't need Qi-Benefiting Pills. Who needs them? Just give them at the black market price."
Qin Ze's eyes lit up and said: "Exchange them to me. In my Spirit Monkey Fist Hall, there are still a few junior brothers who have not reached Qi Gathering Perfection."
Although the black market is five kilometers outside the mountain gate, not everyone has the courage and ability to go to the black market. If you are unlucky, you won't be able to come back after going.
Seeing Qin Ze take the lead, Chen Jiang's slightly opened mouth made no sound.
"Mine are also useless, also at the black market price!" Liu Qian said softly.
"Exchange to me." This time Chen Jiang took the lead.
A flash of displeasure flashed in Qin Ze's eyes, but he didn't express anything.
Xu Yang watched these and also said: "I have reached Qi Gathering Perfection, and they are also useless. However, I just tried one, and only two are left. Just give me four contribution points."
This time Chen Jiang took the lead again, taking two Qi-Gathering Pills for four contribution points. He was full of smiles, completely unaware of the fleeting displeasure in Qin Ze's eyes.
After the exchange of elixirs and contribution points ended, Qin Ze said: "Does anyone have intelligence to share?"
Xu Yang shook his head: "My mission is in Qingyang City. Recently, I have been running between the city and the sect, and there is no useful news."
Chen Jiang showed a surprised expression: "Brother Xu, didn't you just finish the Li Huo Peak mission? Why are you doing missions again? You should calm down and go into seclusion."
Qin Ze nodded: "Brother Xu, if your resources are not enough, I can lend you some, and return it to me after you achieve Qi Refining into Gang Qi. Contribution points are certainly important, but cultivation is the foundation."
Both thought that Xu Yang was working so hard to earn contribution points.
Yue Gui said: "I heard that Xu Yang's mission was forcibly arranged by the deacon of the Mission Hall, is that right, Brother Xu?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Qin Ze and Chen Jiang's expressions changed slightly. So he was being targeted.
Xu Yang nodded: "That's right."
Liu Qian said: "Brother Xu, please be careful. I heard from my elder brother that the errand of guarding Baiyao Hall is not easy to do, and disciples guarding it often die, so few people do it.
Especially when the shop receives precious spiritual herbs, it is most prone to accidents."
Xu Yang cupped his hands: "Thank you for telling me, I will be careful."
Soon, several people talked about intelligence.
Yue Gui said: "I have a piece of news. There is a force in the city called Wanbao Pavilion, which occasionally sells elixirs of the Marrow Cleansing realm. However, you must spend more than five thousand taels there to be eligible to buy them.
If you have any ideas, you can go to Wanbao Pavilion to spend more."
Elixirs of the Marrow Cleansing realm can also be exchanged with contribution points in the outer sect, but a lot of contribution points are required.
Many people have money at home and can only go outside to buy elixirs of the Marrow Cleansing realm.
Yue Gui's words made Liu Qian and the others happy, completely ignoring the threshold of five thousand taels.
Several people felt that this intelligence was very useful and thanked him one after another.
After the thanks ended, Liu Qian spoke again. This time, he used a gloating tone.
"I heard from my elder brother that the Ruifeng Hall and the Poxiao Society have joined forces. Cao Rong and Yun Feng have begun to require those ordinary members to pay a certain amount of contribution points as membership fees every month."
Xu Yang was somewhat surprised. He didn't expect Yun Feng and Cao Rong to start harvesting leeks so quickly. He didn't know if Zhang Yong and the others were on the leek list.
Yue Gui smiled: "Deserved. They really thought there was a pie falling from the sky. They didn't think about what the identities of Young Master Cao and Young Master Yun were, providing them with shelter for no reason."
Qin Ze frowned: "Don't these people know how to resist?"
Liu Qian shook his head: "Cao Ren of the Cao family is one of the backers of the Poxiao Society in the inner sect. How dare they resist? Besides, it is currently just boiling a frog in warm water, and the collection is very small, within their acceptable range.
Yun Feng and Cao Rong are not fools. Collecting too much at once will only cause resistance. They probably plan to do it little by little."
After a while, several people said some unimportant intelligence, and this meeting ended.
Xu Yang stood up and intended to leave, but found that several people were sitting still.
Chen Jiang smiled: "Brother Xu, go first. We all want to find Brother Yue to help us move around and get a mission with less work and more contribution points."
Yue Gui has a way to get good missions with money.
Xu Yang nodded, turned, pushed the door, and left.
The room was quiet for a while, as if confirming that Xu Yang had gone far, Qin Ze then spoke: "Tell me, Brother Yue, what did you mean by letting the four of us stay after the meeting?
Xu Yang is also an ally, it's not good to do this behind his back."
It turned out that Chen Jiang's words were just an excuse. The four arrived here one step ahead of Xu Yang. Yue Gui had already ventilated with the three before, letting Xu Yang leave first after this meeting, as he had something to say to the three.
Chen Jiang smiled lightly: "Brother Qin, don't you understand? Brother Yue is doing this for our consideration. Now in the outer sect, everyone knows that we are allied with Xu Yang.
He is now being targeted by the deacon of the Mission Hall and has been assigned an extremely dangerous mission. If we continue to maintain an alliance with him, aren't you worried about being implicated by the deacon of the Deacon Hall?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Qin Ze's expression changed slightly.
The deacon of the Mission Hall really holds their lifeline. If he wants to target someone, he can assign you a few dangerous missions, ensuring that ten lives are not enough for you to die. ===== CHAPTER 206 =====
