Chapter 532: Entrustment
Seeing that Liuyun Mountain had defenses, Su Fan left. This time, Su Fan did not take anyone with him, nor did he wait for the Great Elder to open the Purple Mansion. After all, Lin Wei and the others were still in Dongying City. He was also worried that there might be some changes in Dongying City.
Dongying City is located in the south of the Wu State, but if there are any changes with the demonic cultivators in the north, it will certainly affect that side.
If he is stationed there, he won't have to worry.
Lin Wei is his disciple after all, and his talent is no worse than the Clan Leader's. Moreover, he is loyal to the Su family and will definitely be a pillar of the Su family in the future.
The Su Qidong brothers are the same; one is an artifact refiner and the other is an alchemist. Once they grow up, the benefits to the Su family go without saying. If there were any accidents, the Su family's loss would be great.
Upon returning to Dongying City, Su Fan immediately inquired about the detailed situation of the righteous-demonic war.
With Li Ke and Jinguang, Su Fan naturally did not lack information.
Li Ke's upper-level information was more accurate and detailed, while Jinguang's gossip from all walks of life was not bad either.
Since getting Su Fan's support, this guy Jinguang's hunting team had expanded a bit more.
The core was still based on thirty Foundation Establishment and Purple Mansion cultivators, while the periphery had expanded by over a hundred people, although most were Qi-refining, with a few Foundation Establishment cultivators.
The power was not small. In Dongying City, they could be considered a local powerhouse. After all, he himself was at the eighth layer of the Purple Mansion, and he had three Purple Mansion cultivators under him: one at the fifth layer and two at the third layer.
It was truly not weak.
Inquiring about information was also not slow.
Of course, Su Fan supporting Jinguang's expansion of power was not just to inquire about information; it was more to help him collect various resources.
Don't look at those Qi-refining cultivators as weak, but sometimes, in the wilderness like this, they could also encounter some opportunities. Even if they were limited by their strength, bringing this information back was good.
Jinguang's strength greatly increased, which was of little use to Su Fan. After all, with his relationship with Li Ke, wanting treasures was far beyond what Jinguang could compare to.
But in the future, he would likely be away most of the time, and Lin Wei and the others could obtain many raw materials from Jinguang.
The three of them—one refining artifacts, one refining pills, and one making talismans—needed a large amount of raw materials.
In these two years, under the supply of abundant resources, the Su Qidong brothers' craftsmanship had become increasingly refined. Both their alchemy and artifact refining levels had reached the second-tier low-grade level.
Being able to refine second-tier spirit pills and artifacts with the cultivation of the ninth layer of Qi-refining was truly extraordinary.
Of course, this was because the techniques the two cultivated were methods deduced by Su Fan in the evolution space. In terms of subtlety, they were no worse than the techniques of those major factions.
Therefore, their magic power foundation was extremely solid and firm. Secondly, their craftsmanship came from Su Fan; having Su Fan personally guide them was equivalent to being taught by an alchemy master.
Great teachers produce great students; naturally, the two's skills improved quickly.
After reaching the second tier, the two's status was very different.
The second-tier level could at least provide for Foundation Establishment cultivators. Every time the Foundation Establishment cultivators under Jinguang met the Su Qidong brothers, they were no longer superficially respectful. Previously, they were respectful to the two just because of Su Fan's face.
They knew Su Fan was an alchemy master.
But now, the Su Qidong brothers reached the second-tier level with Qi-refining cultivation; this talent was absolutely powerful.
These loose cultivators were not people without vision. They had been roaming the cultivation world for so many years and had their own set of rules.
As the relatives of that alchemy master, they knew very well that the two would sooner or later reach the Foundation Establishment stage, and even the Purple Mansion would not be a problem.
Those who were well-informed knew from Jinguang that that alchemy master had easily obtained a piece of Profound Yang Warm Jade from the Tai Nan Chamber of Commerce.
Therefore, in the eyes of these people, although the two brothers had low cultivation now, they would soon catch up to them, and in the future, they would all become people they looked up to.
Naturally, their attitude needed to change.
Don't blame them for being realistic; the cultivation world is just like this.
Of course, Su Fan did not care about this. Su Fan also considered the three little guys, Lin Wei, to be in a free-range state, but the three did not disappoint him. With constant training,
the three little guys and Jinguang's team were also mixing like fish in water in this Dongying City. After all, they all had a craft.
With Jinguang taking care of them in secret, and not to mention Li Ke silently looking after them, no faction in this Dongying City would provoke the three of them.
Dongying City belonged to the Qingmu Sect, but the power of the Tai Nan Chamber of Commerce was above the Qingmu Sect.
Li Ke, as a first-tier deacon of the Tai Nan Chamber of Commerce branch, did not have a low status in Dongying City. After all, he had the Tai Nan Chamber of Commerce standing behind him.
Even the Golden Core cultivator who was the City Lord of Dongying City would not make things difficult for him, let alone other cultivation family forces.
With him looking after them in secret, the three little guys were doing too well; they could absolutely walk sideways, even more formidable than many second-generation immortals.
Of course, the three were not that kind of spoiled brat; on the contrary, the three were quite diligent, especially in cultivation and craftsmanship, which was quite painstaking.
"Brother Li, next, I'll trouble you to look after my disciple and relatives. I'm going to leave for a while."
"If the righteous-demonic war in the north truly affects the south, please take them away."
Su Fan looked at Li Ke and said slowly.
If he were not there, relying solely on Jinguang and the others would not necessarily be enough to take good care of the three, because if the righteous-demonic war truly involved the south, Jinguang and the others would inevitably be conscripted to the battlefield.
But Li Ke absolutely had the right to refuse.
"Haha! Don't worry, Brother Li. Your disciple is my disciple."
"No matter who comes, they cannot take them away." Li Ke smiled and agreed. He also had this confidence; even against a Golden Core cultivator, he dared to contend.
Because the Tai Nan Chamber of Commerce behind him would absolutely not sit idly by.
As the righteous-demonic war dragged on, the rewards he would obtain in the future would be greater. After all, that piece of news allowed the Chamber of Commerce to deploy in advance, and the benefits obtained now far exceeded those of other chambers of commerce.
"Then I can rest easy."
Su Fan nodded upon hearing this. He also knew that Li Ke's status in the Chamber of Commerce was getting higher and higher. Now, in this branch station, he had vaguely become one person above ten thousand.
The other first-tier deacons also knew of Li Ke's contributions, so when facing him, they also made many concessions.
Even that Golden Core manager, when facing Li Ke, vaguely placed him in an equal position, because he knew even better how great Li Ke's contributions were.
With Li Ke's family and his contributions, the treasures Li Ke needed for Golden Core formation in the future would also be prepared by the Chamber of Commerce.
Therefore, it was very likely that Li Ke would form a Golden Core in the future.
By then, the two sides would be on equal footing.
Su Fan knew this, so he was very relieved to entrust the three little ones to Li Ke, and he also prepared to try physical transmigration this time. ===== CHAPTER 533 =====
