Yuan Gang's face was extremely gloomy. Even in the face of several familiar people, he still felt ashamed.
"There must be a reason why Ji Chuan and the others suddenly became so tough." Yuan Gang's voice was cold and full of resentment. "I must find out the root of this matter. These guys may have secretly embezzled the Spirit Devouring Stone. Otherwise, they couldn't suddenly become so generous."
He was almost sure that Ji Chuan's previous strength was not fake. So, there was only one reason why his strength could suddenly improve so much — he embezzled it!
Only by embezzling the Spirit Devouring Stone and using it to exchange for other cultivation resources could he make such great progress.
Otherwise, with Ji Chuan's level, relying on the resources distributed on weekdays would not make much progress at all.
"Embezzled?"
Du Bing and others looked at each other. Embezzling the Spirit Devouring Stone was no stranger to every steward.
Every steward would secretly hide two pieces of Spirit Devouring Stone when they handed it in, because it was also of great use to them. Basically, it was something that was tacitly agreed.
"Brother Yuan, even if they embezzled it, I'm afraid they can't embezzle so much, right?"
Du Bing was a little doubtful. The number of Spirit Devouring Stone they had to hand in every month was already a lot, and in some months, they couldn't even gather enough.
Generally speaking, it was basically impossible to get so many Spirit Devouring Stones at the level that they could gather.
"Jiyong, have you found anything recently?"
Yang Jiyong shook his head. "Ji Chuan and the others basically stay in the mine on weekdays and rarely go to other places. I haven't observed their other actions …"
"Keep an eye on them. They definitely have a way." Yuan Gang emphasized.
"Brother Yuan, don't worry. I'll keep an eye on them. If there's the slightest movement, I'll inform you as soon as possible."
Yuan Gang showed a satisfied expression. "Let's try to find out about this matter before the Consul arrives."
After Baili Hongzhuang and others returned to the mine, Lei Jun had already tried to find a way to understand the relationship between Yuan Gang and the Consul at the first time.
There was no impenetrable wall in this world. Even if Yuan Gang usually hid it well, as long as he put in a little effort, there would still be some channels to understand.
"I think we should go to the market more often. We have to start looking for Xiao Sewu there."
Baili Hongzhuang was deep in thought. There was no hope for the mine, but in the current situation, they could not abandon this identity.
All the cultivators in the Crossing Celestial Domain were registered. Unless they had worked in the mine for a certain number of years or had made a special contribution, they could resign from their position and go to other places.
Otherwise, without this identity, it was very likely that they would be captured and forced to mine …
"We have more freedom here. As long as we can fulfill our monthly quota, it won't be a problem for us to go to other places."
Di Beichen said slowly. They didn't get much information from Zhou Xu and the others today, especially some common sense questions.
It was precisely because it was a question of common sense that it was easy to be exposed when asked. Therefore, he could only ask about it in a roundabout way. He really didn't know much.
"Should we find a day to get Zhou Xu drunk?" Baili Hongzhuang's eyes lit up, and a plan suddenly sprouted.
