Chapter 237: Chapter 0209: You Can Only Rely on Yourself to Dig_2 Chapter 237: Chapter 0209: You Can Only Rely on Yourself to Dig_2 Qi Tian nodded, saying, “Thank you Mansion Master for arranging everything for , and thank you, Hall Master, for taking such trouble with my affairs.”
Luo Xia took out a storage bag and handed it to Qi Tian, saying, “These are the cultivation resources listed on the roster, I’m giving them to you now. I don’t want you to say that the Mansion is all talk and no action.”
Qi Tian waved his hand and said, “Hall Master, if the bag is full of resources for the Qi Cultivation Period, you can take them back, I don’t need them anymore. Otherwise, you can exchange them for spirit stones or resources for the Foundation Establishnt Stage that I can use.”
Luo Xia snorted, saying, “You are dreaming. Now that you have advanced to the Foundation Establishnt Stage, it’s no harm letting you know so things. Actually, all these years, our Imperial Master Mansion has been strapped, lacking everything, especially various cultivation resources. The reason why the disciples, including you, signed up for the County Master selection and paid such high registration fees, and why such high deductions were made, was to fill this gap. Unfortunately, all these are just a drop in the bucket and can’t solve the fundantal problem. The further we cultivate, the more and the more valuable the resources we need, the harder they are to find. During the Qi Cultivation Period, it’s relatively easy, but as for the Foundation Establishnt Stage, it’s quite a lot harder. This problem is particularly severe in our Imperial Master Mansion. Looking ahead, if you beco a County Master, whether you can open new sources of inco for our Imperial Master Mansion, and whether you can contribute cultivation resources to the Mansion on ti every year, are all important indicators for your assessnt.”
Qi Tian couldn’t help but be taken aback, saying, “Is it really that serious?”
“It’s even more serious than you think. One of the major reasons why our Imperial Master Mansion has been at a disadvantage in the struggles with the other two National Master Manors over the years is the lack of cultivation resources. In short, we lack enough financial support, and the Mansion’s inco does not cover its expenditure. Without money, it is impossible to provide sufficient resources for disciples to cultivate, which in turn makes it impossible to attract outstanding disciples. If the strength of the Mansion’s disciples does not improve and the quality is insufficient, naturally, we can’t win against others. Qi Tian, I don’t mind saying sothing that may disappoint you. You are quite good at making a fuss, daring to fight and kill, and luck is also good, hence your current achievents. However, with your talent, if you were in the National Master Manor, you wouldn’t need to make such an effort, you would have achievents not less than what you have now. Maybe even better.” Luo Xia said with so regret.
Qi Tian chuckled and said, “Hall Master, don’t you fear defecting to the National Master Manor by saying this?”
“Would you?” Luo Xia looked lightly at Qi Tian and said, “You won’t. I’ve noticed a long ti ago, you’re like a wild horse, you don’t like to be reined in by anyone. If you really want to go to the National Master Manor, I wouldn’t stop you. But I can guarantee that even if you were there, they wouldn’t trust you easily, let alone leave you unrestrained for your potential. If they don’t put reins on you, I will cut off my head for you.”
Qi Tian just laughed and nodded. If he were really in the National Master Manor, he definitely wouldn’t be as free as in the Imperial Master Mansion.
Luo Xia handed the storage bag back to Qi Tian again, saying, “I had guessed that you wouldn’t want the resources for the Qi Cultivation Period. But think about it, you may not need them, but isn’t it possible that others do? Aren’t you recruiting people to serve you? You can distribute these resources to them as rewards. Of course, if you really don’t want the resources, I can exchange them for spirit stones for you, but don’t expect to exchange them at the market price, there will definitely be a significant discount.”
Hearing this, Qi Tian quickly took the storage bag and said, “I take your advice and fill my belly. I’ll keep them.”
Luo Xia said, “During this period, don’t go out and avoid prolonged closed-door cultivation. The Mansion Master may co out anyti, and there’s a high chance that he’ll summon you when he does. You better be prepared. And don’t retreat to the Sky Eagle Hall’s Martial Arts Arena, just continue cultivating here.”
Qi Tian asked, “Is there a specific ti for the Mansion Master to co out? Now that I’m in the Foundation Establishnt Stage, will the Mansion Master still let be a County Master?”
Luo Xia said, “I don’t know when the Mansion Master will co out. Even if I did, I wouldn’t dare tell you. Revealing the Mansion Master’s whereabouts is a serious cri. As for whether he will let you continue to be a County Master, if it were the old tis, definitely not. However, this ti is different. Rember, in order to compete for the position of Lubei County Master, Chen Wenbo from Guardian National Master Manor even ca out. Your opponent, Gao Han, was also a Half-step Foundation Establishnt cultivator. You defeated Gao Han. If Chen Wenbo does not let it go, he will definitely send people to deal with you. What kind of person do you think he’ll send? Your level of cultivation is just right.”
Qi Tian also knew that if he were to go to Lubei County, things wouldn’t be peaceful. He was already ntally prepared for this. He asked again, “What happened in Lubei County? Didn’t the Mansion send anyone to check?”
Luo Xia said, “Of course, soone was sent to check. But on the surface, there doesn’t seem to be much difference in Lubei County. This is not normal. Chen Wenbo and his team ca with great pomp, there must be sothing going on, but sadly our people couldn’t find out. Maybe only you can dig it out.”
After a mont of silence, Qi Tian said, “Does our Mansion have a pill refinent master who is good at alchemy? I need so pills.”
Luo Xia asked, “What kind of pill do you want to refine? Is it for cultivation?”
Qi Tian nodded, saying, “It’s for body refining.”
Luo Xia said, “My Brother, I an no offense, but our ti and energy are limited. Don’t aim too high and take on more than you can handle.”
“I have a plan. My primary focus is to be a Mage Cultivator and do body cultivation on the side. No matter what I do, I can’t do it without a good body, right?” Qi Tian briefly explained before continuing, “Does brother know any good pill refinent masters? Are there any in the Imperial Master Mansion?”
Luo Xia shook his head and said, “There aren’t any too powerful ones. It used to be Little dico who was the best, but now Little dico has resigned from the Mansion Master, and her whereabouts are unknown. Finding soone better than Little dico would be impossible, even finding soone as good as Little dico would be tough.”
“Then Brother, do you know why Little dico joined our Imperial Master Mansion in the first place? Which power does she co from? And why did she leave now?” Qi Tian continued to ask.
Luo Xia said, “I really don’t know which power Little dico cos from. Theoretically speaking, she should be from the sa power as the Mansion Master, but I can’t guarantee it. As for the purpose of her coming and why she left, I know even less.”
Qi Tian couldn’t get an answer from Luo Xia, so he didn’t say anything.
“Little brother, do you have any more questions, or is there anything you need to do?” asked Luo Xia, “If not, I have to go. There are a lot of things waiting for to deal with in the Sky Eagle Hall.”
Qi Tian quickly said, “I would like to ask Brother to help get so materials for creating talismans. Since I shouldn’t do anything, I might as well create a few talismans.”
Luo Xia took Qi Tian to his usual cultivation cave dwelling. Just like Han Chengnuo, the head of the Huangque Hall, he had a secret room for his personal cultivation in the Sky Eagle Hall. Luo Xia asked Qi Tian to cultivate here, then ordered soone to bring all kinds of rune materials for Qi Tian’s cultivation. Then he left Qi Tian alone and ignored him.
Qi Tian found himself at leisure. Since he had to wait for the Mansion Master to finish his seclusion, he might as well continue studying the Gold Rune Volu conscientiously, aiming to make better talismans.
