Chen Qiankun bit his teeth. "Senior Su, if you have the ability, you should leave the Greater One Sect as soon as possible."
After saying this, he looked around cautiously, handed a jade piece to Su Yu, then walked away quickly with his head down.
Su Yu quietly returned to the house and crushed the jade piece.
Inside was a message from Chen Qiankun.
"Senior Su, there are rumors in the faction that you have a divine herb worth two hundred thousand Time Crystals. Every hall wants it."
"Apart from that, you injured an inner sanctum disciple half a year ago. Now the fourth-ranked disciple, Jin Feijian, wants you to kneel and admit your mistake."
"Furthermore, there are rumors that you are colluding with the demon faction."
Su Yu's expression was gloomy after reading it.
He did not care much about the first two.
But the last point was that he had to pay attention to the so-called rumors.
Strictly speaking, he was indeed colluding with the demon faction.
But where did the rumors come from?
So far, besides himself and Jin Yue, no one else knew of the secret deal between him and Jin Yue.
Was it a rumor made up by others, or did they really have concrete evidence?
With Su Yu's experience, it was not suitable for him to continue staying in the Greater One Sect. He should take Chen Qiankun's advice and leave the faction as soon as possible.
But he was not far from the position of Hall Master.
He was about to achieve his goal!
It would be a pity to give up now.
"I'll have to bear with it a little longer," Su Yu thought.
Just as he finished understanding this, another fighter from the Armament Division came.
"Senior Su, the Hall Master has summoned you."
Chen Qiankun was right. He had become a piece of meat in the eyes of many Hall Masters, all wanting to snatch that divine herb.
Su Yu pondered for a moment, then nodded. "I'll head over in a moment."
After the other left, Su Yu's eyes flashed. He immediately went to the area where the faction collected the Nine Serenities Crystals.
"How many Nine Serenities Crystals have you dug up?" the elder in charge of exchanging for the Time Crystals asked mechanically.
Su Yu did not say a word, taking out the living divine herb. "I am Su Yu. This divine herb was taken from a Nine Serenities Crystal."
Hearing this, the elder on the windowsill glowed.
"Wait a moment!"
He immediately got up and headed to the back hall, probably to ask for instructions from someone important.
Not long after, the old man returned with a smile on his face. "The Hall Master invites you in."
Just as Su Yu had expected, he went to the Exchange Hall's back hall and saw a middle-aged female Hall Master.
She smiled as she looked at Su Yu, nodding continuously. "You are indeed a talented man. I have already heard about your performance in the Heavenly Awakening Palace. Our Exchange Hall needs a talent like you."
These words were naturally polite words.
The Greater One Sect was only a small sect and the number of Nine Nether Odd Crystals they obtained was quite limited.
There was no need for Su Yu to appraise it.
"Hall Master, you flatter me," Su Yu said.
The female hall master nodded lightly with her snow-white chin. "I heard that you want to sell immortal herbs?"
"Yes!" Su Yu said bluntly.
The female hall master's beautiful eyes turned slightly. "Yes, but our Greater One Sect is not like the outside world. Immortal grasses can be sold for the price of 200,000 time crystals in the outside world, but in the sect, that may not be the case."
Su Yu had already expected this.
The price of the nine nether crystals dug out from the mines of the Greater One Sect was only half that of the outside world.
This was because the Supreme Sect was sealed.
"I don't sell the Time Crystal," Su Yu said calmly.
The woman was slightly surprised. "Then what do you want?"
"Nine Nether Crystals!" The baby had already slept for three months and could wake up at any time.
He needed to collect the Nine Nether Crystals as soon as possible.
"This is against the rules. Our Exchange Hall collects Nine Nether Crystals and never sells them to the outside world." The female hall master's eyes flashed.
Su Yu calmly said, "Since you don't want it, then forget it."
There were many people who wanted this immortal herb.
"Wait!" How could the female hall master not know how popular this immortal herb was now?
Any hall master would want a piece of it.
"The Nine Nether Crystals in the Exchange Hall belong to the faction. Of course, I can't sell them to you." The female hall master changed her tone. "But, I can use my own name to buy this immortal herb."
Others might not have enough Nine Nether Crystals, but the female hall master had been in charge of the Exchange Hall for so many years and had secretly embezzled countless Nine Nether Crystals.
Naturally, buying this immortal herb was not difficult at all.
"But, I want you to guarantee that you will announce to the outside world that I bought it with Time Crystals and not Nine Nether Crystals. Do you understand?" The female hall master did not dare let the outside world know that she had so many Nine Nether Crystals in her hands.
Otherwise, the sect would be the first to punish her.
"That's what I wanted to say too." Su Yu also did not want the faction to know that he had so many Nine Serenities Crystals.
Only then did the female Hall Master reveal a smile. "Deal!"
Hence, Su Yu exchanged the divine herb for the Nine Nether Crystals, which were worth 200,000 Time Crystals.
Because he was worried that the baby wouldn't eat the low-level Netherworld Crystals, he tried his best to exchange for high-level Netherworld Crystals.
The female Hall Master was also very happy about this.
Although the high-level Crystal of Nine Serenities was precious, there were not many people who needed it. Hence, it was not easy for her to sell it. Since Su Yu wanted it, she was naturally happy to let him have it.
After completing the transaction, Su Yu relaxed and went to the Armaments Division.
"Why are you only here now?" the golden-armored hall master reproached with a frown.
Su Yu was neither servile nor overbearing. "I was stopped by the messengers of a few Clan Masters the moment I stepped out of the door. I apologize for being late."
The golden-armored hall master's expression tensed up.
His face darkened, and he sternly shouted, "Su Yu, do you know your crime?"
Was this a show of strength the moment he arrived?
Su Yu was calm and composed as he said, "I'm just doing my duty, and I don't know that I'm guilty."
How was he guilty?
He had just made a great contribution to the Military Division at the border.
"As a disciple of the Armaments Division, you left the Heavenly Awakening Palace during a great battle, and you dare say that you don't know your crime?" the golden-armored hall master sternly rebuked.
The disciples of the Greater One Faction could enter and leave the faction at any time, and this was not a crime.
The golden-armored hall master had forcefully accused Su Yu of a crime, and his intentions were simple.
"Considering that this is your first offense, hand over all your illegally obtained goods to offset your crime!" the golden-armored hall master scolded.
Su Yu was disappointed.
If the Elixir Refining Hall Master wanted the divine herb, he would at least have given him the benefits of transferring it to the Elixir Refining Hall.
But the Armaments Division that he was in wanted to rob him on a groundless charge, and was unwilling to give him even the slightest bit of benefit.
In the eyes of the golden-armored hall master, he was probably the lowest existence.
There was no psychological burden in taking his things.
Fortunately, he had anticipated this and made preparations in advance.
"I'm sorry, the things of the Heavenly Awakening Palace were all robbed by the demon faction. Disciple Yu Xiangwan of the Affairs Division can testify to this," Su Yu said.
Slap —
The golden-armored hall master slammed the table, his brows furrowed as he said coldly, "Don't try to quibble. You obtained a divine herb, but you did not hand it over to the demon faction. Quickly hand it over!"
