Chapter 100: Chapter 86: Dog King
"Master, I don’t know the na of that gentleman, but he is quite short, even shorter than . He said this was a gift from the Sect Leader for you."
Li Yuan imdiately understood; Sect Leader Tie was compensating him.
After all, in Sect Leader Tie’s eyes, he was sacrificing his cultivation ti for the sake of the "Blood Saber Sect"...
This was a freebie indeed.
If Sect Leader Tie had given this to him earlier, he wouldn’t have needed to disguise himself and rob at at the black market.
Li Yuan looked at so much Eighth Grade Demon Beast at and, recalling his previous breakthrough to Eighth Grade, roughly guessed that this was the amount of Eighth Grade Demon Beast at required to break through from the eighth grade to seventh grade.
It could be said that Tie Sha was paving the way for him to break through to Seventh Grade, even giving him a share of the spoils, a privilege only enjoyed by the Sect Leader, Vice Sect Leader, and the Elders. After all, if one wants to achieve Seventh Grade Perfection, they still need to keep consuming Eighth Grade Demon Beast at and enhance the Shadow Blood concentration through cultivation skills.
Tie Sha truly valued him.
Unfortunately, he didn’t need this at anymore.
"Xiaozhu, please marinate this at tomorrow."
"Yes, Master," Xiaozhu obediently replied, then slowly withdrew to consult with Aunt Wang on how to marinate, considering it was a lot of at.
The Sect Leader truly values Master, and the lady chose a good son-in-law, Xiaozhu thought happily.
...
...
Several days later.
A large ox cart entered through the Inner City gate, driven by two strong won, and stopped in front of house number 22 in the Inner City.
The carriage door opened with a "boom," and a burly woman with a face full of scars jumped off the cart, carrying a Ghost Head Blade. This woman was Zhao Chunxin.
The gate of the house was open, and there seed to be so sound coming from inside.
Zhao Chunxin grinned, accentuating the scar on her face, making her look particularly fierce. She muttered, "Hey, there are guests."
"Huang Gang, where did these guests co from!!" Zhao Chunxin shouted.
Soon, a smaller version of Zhao Chunxin ran out, saying, "Grandma Zhao, it’s Young Master Li."
Zhao Chunxin was taken aback for a mont, then quickly walked to the reception hall and saw a man sitting quietly, holding so things in his hand.
"Junior Brother!" Zhao Chunxin shouted.
Although she and her junior brother were both at Silver Creek Square, they were usually busy with their own matters, rarely seeing each other.
Li Yuan stood up, glanced at Zhao Chunxin, and noticed that his senior sister’s power had increased slightly, changing from "72~80" to "74~82."
He bowed and said, "Senior Sister."
Zhao Chunxin laughed heartily and said, "Junior Brother, you’re the star of our Blood Saber Sect. What brings you here today?"
As she spoke, she leaned in and whispered, "Junior Brother took down two Wild Honored Guests, and the disciples are actually applauding secretly."
Li Yuan smiled and raised a large burlap sack in his hand, saying, "I’m delivering sothing to Senior Sister."
Zhao Chunxin’s eyes widened as she said, "What is it? I have everything here... Junior Brother..."
"Take a look, Senior Sister." Li Yuan lowered his voice.
Zhao Chunxin leaned closer and opened it, seeing strips of marinated at piled high, filling the entire bag. Judging by the appearance and the qi and blood aura, Zhao Chunxin was very certain that this was Eighth Grade Demon Beast at.
"Junior Brother... this..." Zhao Chunxin was dumbfounded.
Li Yuan said, "It’s for Senior Sister, don’t ntion it to anyone."
"Where did it co from?" Zhao Chunxin asked.
Li Yuan said, "It’s from a legitimate source, but it’s scarce outside, and it must not be discovered by others."
As he spoke, he handed the large bag of marinated at to Zhao Chunxin, then waved his hand, saying, "Well, Senior Sister, I must go now, there’s sothing at ho I need to attend to first."
Zhao Chunxin carried the at and saw Li Yuan to the door, then turned back and couldn’t help but swear, "Damn, a hundred and twenty catties!!
Junior Brother gave
a hundred and twenty catties of Eighth Grade Demon Beast at!!
Is he insane?
No, no, I’m insane... Junior Brother’s not insane, Junior Brother is so righteous!
I think I’ll find a way to get more on my own, this is enough for
to eat for two months."
Zhao Chunxin had been stuck at Eighth Grade for a long ti precisely because of the scarcity of at.
Once reaching Eighth Grade, to improve to Perfection and break the realm, one needs to consu over a hundred catties of Eighth Grade Demon Beast at every month. In Shanbao County, which Eighth Grade isn’t lacking in at?
Not to ntion Eighth Grade, even Seventh Grade needs to eat.
Therefore, Shanbao County is not short of Ninth Grade at, but Eighth Grade at is very scarce.
And now, Junior Brother had given her a hundred and twenty catties all at once, which simply... delighted her imnsely.
For Li Yuan, teachers, Zhou Jia, and Tang Chou couldn’t benefit from eating Demon Beast at imdiately; they needed to heal first, then use the at for further cultivation, so... he simply gave this batch of Demon Beast at to Zhao Chunxin.
Senior Sister had helped him a lot, and if she could break through to Seventh Grade, many matters at Silver Creek Square would no longer require his intervention; she could handle them instead.
And even if Senior Sister couldn’t break through, it was fine; he was returning the favor, after all.
Li Yuan could be petty sotis, but when the situation called for generosity, he wouldn’t be stingy, so... the Demon Beast at given by Tie Sha was marinated by the maidservants, and then entirely given to Zhao Chunxin.
...
Zhao Chunxin also had her own ways and channels; she cautiously and indirectly gathered information about Li Yuan’s recent activities, and a few days later learned of sothing not very secret among the Blood Saber Sect’s high-ranking mbers.
That was a long-vacant, proposed but never filled position—the Demon Master.
And... Li Yuan had been chosen as the Demon Master.
Zhao Chunxin instantly understood that this at must be the sect’s compensation to Li Yuan and the hope they placed in him.
After all, cultivating skills related to demon taming would significantly deplete one’s ti and delay breakthroughs.
