Chapter 851: Report

After listening to Song Wen's countermeasures, Shu Niang was still worried.

But he didn't dare to refute Song Wen too much, so he could only change to another question.

"Deputy Palace Master, do you want to withhold elixirs and rewards from second-level alchemists?"

"Of course." Song Wen said.

Shu Niang said, "My subordinates are only at the initial stage of foundation building, and their strength is low. Those second-level alchemists, how can they let their subordinates exploit them? If they are angry and attack their subordinates, their lives may be at risk." worry."

A black and yellow pagoda suddenly appeared in front of Song Wen. It was the top-quality defensive spiritual weapon he had obtained when he was in the Beast Control Sect.

"This thing is given to you for self-defense."

Then, ten more high-grade spiritual stones appeared in front of Song Wen.

"You can use these spirit stones to buy a second-level peak corpse puppet. These two treasures will surely be enough to keep you safe and sound. If someone really disrespects you and makes a move, don't worry, I will seek justice for you. of."

Shu Niang took over the pagoda and spirit stone, her worry a little lessened.

"Thank you, Deputy Palace Master. Don't worry, Deputy Palace Master, your subordinates will do their best."

After sending Shu Niang away, Song Wen found the two third-level alchemists again.

He divided the third-level elixirs in the mission equally between the two of them, leaving no task for himself; but he did not touch any of the elixirs and rewards of the two.

In the days that followed, Song Wen concentrated on refining the Blood Demon Pill and taking the pill to practice, and paid little attention to the affairs of the Pill Hall.

This day.

As soon as Song Wen walked out of the alchemy room, he saw several second-level alchemists guarding the alchemy room. They had obviously been waiting here for a long time.

"Deputy Palace Master, Shu Niang deducted our spiritual herbs and rewards, and asked the Deputy Palace Master to make decisions for us." One of the male cultivators at the peak of Foundation Establishment said.

Song Wen recognized this male cultivator, his name was ‘Jiang Rui’.

A flash of surprise and anger flashed across Song Wen's face.

"Oh? Is there such a thing? How many spiritual herbs and rewards has she deducted from you?"

Jiang Rui said, "10% each for the spiritual grass and reward."

Song Wen pondered for a moment and then said.

"Just retreat first. I will personally investigate the matter and give you an explanation."

"This...Deputy Palace Master, why don't you call Shu Niang and confront us, and the matter will naturally come to light." Jiang Rui said.

Song Wen's expression darkened and his eyes suddenly turned cold.

"Are you dissatisfied with the way I handled it?"

"I don't dare!" Jiang Rui trembled and said hurriedly.

"snort!"

Song Wen snorted coldly, and his figure suddenly disappeared without a trace.

Several second-level alchemists all shook their heads in disappointment.

They were not the first people to report Shu Niang to Song Wen.

All the previous accusations against Shu Niang fell into silence, and Shu Niang was not punished at all.

They still don’t understand that ‘Gou Jun’ is deliberately protecting Shu Niang.

"How about... I go to the palace master and report Shu Niang? I don't believe that a mere Shu Niang can cover the sky in the Alchemy Palace with just one hand." A female cultivator suddenly said.

"The palace master will not get involved in this matter, otherwise he will offend deputy palace master Gou Jun." Jiang Rui said with some frustration.

"Then let's go to Corpse King Peak and report to the Demon Lord and Demon Lord." The female monk said.

Jiang Rui glanced at the female cultivator with a slightly shocked expression.

"I forgot to extinguish the fire in the alchemy furnace. Say goodbye." After saying that, he hurriedly left.

"I'm in a hurry. I need to go to Zhenbao Hall. Let's go first."

"I'm also going to Zhenbao Hall. Let's go together."

"When I went out, I forgot to close the door of the cave."

Soon, several second-level alchemists left for various reasons.

The female cultivator looked at the backs of everyone leaving and realized that she had said something extremely stupid.

If they report Shu Niang to Song Wen, they will only offend Shu Niang alone; however, if they go to Corpse King Peak, they will definitely offend 'Gou Jun'.

In addition, the Demon Lord and Demon Lord are not just foundation-building monks that she can see whenever she wants.

The female cultivator moved her feet and left quickly, never mentioning the matter of going to Corpse King Peak again.

...

Four years later.

Xiyun Peak, Songwen Cave Mansion.

"Deputy Hall Master, these are the spirit stones that were withheld last month. Less than a thousand middle-grade spirit stones?"

Shu Niang handed a storage bag to Song Wen with a respectful look.

Song Wen took the storage bag and frowned.

"That's all it took last month?"

"Deputy Palace Master, most of the elixirs have been refined and there will be less and less in the future." Shu Niang explained.

Song Wen nodded and said nothing more.

"Deputy Hall Master, I just saw someone from the Liangyi Sect on the way here. I'm afraid something big will happen," Shu Niang said.

"The Liangyi Sect has frequent exchanges with the sect, so why send someone here to make a fuss?" Song Wen said indifferently.

Shu Niang said, "The person coming this time is different. He has a good background. Demon Lord Ye Hua came out to greet him personally."

Song Wen was aroused and asked.

"What does this person look like?"

Shu Niang said, "That person was flying high in the sky. The distance was too far, so my subordinates couldn't see clearly. However, it is certain that he is a female cultivator."

Song Wendao said, "I understand, please step back first."

After Shu Niang left, Song Wen transferred the spirit stones in the storage bag to his storage ring.

All the blood demon elixir he brought from the Shura Sect has been used up. You can only rely on buying the Bone Transforming Vine from the Treasure Hall, and then buying other elixirs from outside to refine the Blood Demon Pill.

In order to prevent Meng Lengyu from being overly suspicious, he only bought one foot of bone-transforming vine every month, which greatly slowed down his cultivation progress.

However, fortunately, his cultivation was close to the bottleneck of the middle stage of the Nascent Soul.

During these four years, the rewards and spiritual herbs that Shu Niang could deduct every month were worth about two thousand medium-grade spiritual stones. Together with Song Wen's salary, they could basically meet Song Wen's cultivation, as well as the daily needs of Gu worms and corpse puppets.

At this time, a communication jade slip in the storage ring suddenly began to shake.

Song Wen took out the jade slip and saw that it was a message from Ye Hua.

[Gou Jun, come to the Corpse King Hall quickly. ]

Song Wen simply packed up and got up to go to the Corpse King Hall.

As soon as he entered the hall, he found that there were many people in the hall.

Yin Shuo sat in the main seat.

Below him on the right was Ye Hua.

Below him on the left was a beautiful female cultivator, who was Zi Yun from the Liangyi Sect.

In addition, several Jindan-stage elders of Wuji Sect were standing in the hall, including Le Liang, the master of Dan Hall, and Meng Lengyu, the master of Zhenbao Hall.

Seeing Yin Shuo, Ye Hua, and Zi Yun discussing something, and there was a soundproof barrier blocking them, Song Wen did not salute and walked directly to Le Liang's side.

"Palace Master, do you know why you summoned us here?" Song Wen asked in a low voice.

Le Liang shook his head and did not answer.

Song Wen did not ask any more questions and waited quietly.

During the waiting period, people came one after another, and they were all inner sect elders of Wuji Sect.

When there were seventeen or eighteen people in the hall, Ye Hua removed the barrier, stood up, and pointed at Zi Yun.

"Everyone, this is Brother Ziyun, a Yuanying cultivator from Liangyi Sect. Brother Ziyun has come from afar because the demons have been getting more rampant recently, and have attacked some remote islands in the Central Region many times. A large number of mortals and small-scale immortal cultivation forces have been slaughtered, and all lives have been lost. If this continues, the habitat of our human race will inevitably be squeezed out until we are wiped out by the demons."
