Thinking of this, Lu Yi muttered to himself in his heart, "I must help with the disaster relief!"
As Lu Yi muttered to himself, words appeared on the interface.
[Task]
Disaster Relief in Mohe Country
Reward determined by the extent of relief provided.
Accept the task? Yes/No
Can tasks really be issued?
Lu Yi was stunned for a mont, then felt a bit of joy in his heart.
Seeing the state of the disaster victims, Lu Yi was also sowhat moved. Now he could both help those victims and receive a reward.
It's a win-win situation.
Seeing Lu Yi daydreaming, Jiang Fan glanced at him and asked, "Junior Brother Lu, what's wrong?"
Lu Yi ca back to his senses and smiled, "It's nothing."
He looked towards Li Qing and asked, "Do you know where that devil cultivator is now? If you do, we can go and deal with him right away."
For Lu Yi, a Qi Cultivation Tenth Layer devil cultivator was not a big issue.
Hearing Lu Yi's words, Li Qing spoke up hastily, "There have been more disappearances in the Capital these past few days, but perhaps due to the battle last ti, that devil cultivator has beco a lot more cautious. The missing are all refugees. However, because of the last incident, we have been more strict in screening the refugees and discovered the issue imdiately."
"However..." Li Qing paused, then continued, "We're still unable to determine the exact location of that devil cultivator. We need more ti."
Hearing this, Bai Yulong's eyes lit up as he smiled, "Then please determine the location as soon as possible. We will stay in the Capital during this ti."
Seeing Bai Yulong looking happy, Lu Yi felt it was odd in his heart; this guy wasn't thinking of finding ti to visit the pleasure houses, was he?

Lu Yi nodded and said, "If that's the case, then you guys go ahead and confirm the location. By the way, I have another matter to attend to."
Hearing Lu Yi's words, Jiang Fan and Bai Yulong looked at him with so surprise.
"Junior Brother Lu, there's more?" Jiang Fan asked with so confusion.
Their only task was indeed just that one.
When Mohe Country Lord Mo Ling heard that Lu Yi had other matters, he quickly spoke earnestly, "Immortal Master, what do you need? Please command , and I will spare no effort to fulfill your request!"
Lu Yi chuckled, "I passed through Mohe Country and saw many people displaced and victims everywhere, feeling pity in my heart. I would like to ask the Monarch to help with disaster relief."
Hearing this, everyone was stunned for a mont.
Bai Yulong looked at Lu Yi in astonishnt, "Disaster relief? Junior Brother Lu... the lives of mortals are impermanent, why bother?"
Jiang Fan was silent, also looking at Lu Yi with so surprise.
Even Li Qing, Mo Ling, and the others nearby were shocked at Lu Yi.
It had never occurred to them that what Lu Yi ntioned was disaster relief.
Lu Yi smiled and said, "It's true that the lives of mortals are impermanent, and while I can save them this ti, I can't save them every ti. However... since I have seen the suffering, if I were to ignore it, I would feel sowhat uneasy. Consider it a personal caprice of mines."
The atmosphere was solemn, and Jiang Fan chuckled lightly, "When you were in the Outer Sect, Junior Brother Lu, you always considered others' feelings in spar, and you treated your peers like brothers. I didn't expect you to show such compassion to the common people as well... Junior Brother's gentle and kind nature is admirable."
Bai Yulong, recalling the discussions he had heard about Lu Yi during the Outer Sect tournant, looked at him with a complex expression and said bitterly, "Junior Brother is righteous, I admire you."
Li Qing, Mo Ling, and the others, hearing these words, looked at Lu Yi with surprised expressions.
They understood that this young Cultivator who appeared to lead the three of them was probably not like other Cultivators.
The younger Princes watched Lu Yi, wanting to say sothing but hesitated.
In their view, what does the life and death of a few lowly commoners matter to an Immortal Master?
However, as princes, they naturally couldn't voice such thoughts, and could only grumble to themselves in their hearts.
Lu Yi smiled, "Thank you for the praise, Senior Brothers, I'm rely following through on my own convictions."
With that, he turned to Mo Ling, "Can the Monarch grant my request?"
"This..." Mo Ling said with a wry smile, "The matter of disaster relief is sothing the young prince has been attending to all along, but... Mohe Country is a small nation and the national treasury is not exactly overflowing; even if we wish to aid the disaster victims, our intentions exceed our capabilities..."
Facing Mo Ling's words, Lu Yi expressed neither agreent nor disagreent. The modest size of Mohe Country was undeniable—evident by the fact that the Capital had only one Cultivator at the Qi Cultivation Tenth Layer.
But considering the prosperity within the Capital, which was a completely different world compared to the Outer Sect, the claim of willing but unable to help the disaster victims seed hard to justify.
He chuckled softly as he produced a white porcelain bottle, "Inside here are three Top-grade Qi Condensation Elixirs."
No sooner had Lu Yi spoken than the entire room fell silent as the grave.
Jiang Fan and Bai Yulong looked at the porcelain bottle in Lu Yi's hand, sowhat surprised.
Top-grade Qi Condensation Elixir!
Even with strong backers behind them, such an elixir was still incredibly precious to the two of them!
If that was the case for them, not to ntion cultivators like Li Qing.
Having left the White Cloud Sect, they were now Loose Cultivators, for whom even dreaming of such a Top-grade elixir was almost inconceivable.
Li Qing and the others stared intensely at the porcelain bottle in Lu Yi's hand, their eyes nearly bulging out.
The Mohe Country Lord naturally understood the value of a Top-grade elixir; while he lacked the talent for cultivation, it didn't an he was ignorant of a cultivator's basic circumstances.
The Mohe Country Lord's breathing quickened as he gazed at the elixir in Lu Yi's hand.
Seeing the Monarch's expression, Lu Yi pointed to a boy of about eleven or twelve at the lord's side, smiling, "This must be your child, right? He possesses a certain talent for cultivation. With these three Top-grade Qi Condensation Elixirs, he should be able to pass the White Cloud Sect's entry examination and join the Sect."
"Immortal, Immortal Master! I will certainly open up the national treasury and spare no effort in disaster relief!" the Mohe Country Lord declared with a fervent, resolute gaze.
If his offspring could join the White Cloud Sect, they could protect Mohe Country for a century!
Within a hundred years, Mohe Country would be safe and sound!
These three elixirs were too valuable!
Lu Yi smiled and put away the elixirs, "Let see the results first, my reward is only valid until the end of this current task."
After all, Lu Yi, even if he wanted to help the disaster victims, couldn't possibly stay in Mohe Country indefinitely.
What he did was within the scope of what he could manage to help, without affecting his own cultivation.
The Mohe Country Lord nodded vigorously, "Immortal Master, rest assured! You will see the results in a few days!"
Lu Yi smiled, "That will be all, please arrange a place for us to rest. Inform us when you have confird the location of the devil cultivators."
The Mohe Country Lord quickly responded, "I have already prepared accommodations for the Immortal Masters, please follow ."
Led by the Monarch, the group arrived at an elegant palace, where the Mohe Country Lord asked, "This will be the Immortal Masters' residence, are you satisfied with this place?"
As he spoke, his gaze turned to Lu Yi, understanding that Lu Yi was the true decision-maker among the three, and that if Lu Yi was comfortable, it was unlikely the other two would have any objections.
Lu Yi said with a smile, "This place is nice; let's stay here."
The Mohe Country Lord breathed a sigh of relief, then quickly added, "The Immortal Masters should rest well. I must return to prepare for the disaster relief and so must take my leave."
Lu Yi nodded, and the Mohe Country Lord hurried away with Li Qing and the others, leaving only Lu Yi and his companions in the hall.
It was only after the Monarch and his entourage had departed that Bai Yulong lanted, "Junior Brother Lu! Are you out of your mind? Those were Top-grade Qi Condensation Elixirs! How could you just hand them over to the leader of so minor country?! Who does he think he is?!"
Even Jiang Fan's expression was torn as he chuckled bitterly, "Junior Brother Lu, even though your heart is in the right place, that was quite a grand gesture. Those were three Top-grade Qi Condensation Elixirs!"
