"Disciple only has one request." Yang Chen was not polite this time. He immediately put forward his own request. Even Elder Li who was next to him didn't seem to see it. He directly opened his mouth.
Elder Li was also reminding Yang Chen out of goodwill. Yang Chen's performance in the previous few times was quite good. He knew when to advance and when to retreat, and didn't take credit for himself in the slightest, leaving a good impression in the hearts of the higher-ups. He was afraid that Yang Chen would become arrogant and lose his mind, saying something inappropriate.
What he was afraid of happened. Yang Chen didn't even refuse and directly stated his request. Although he didn't know what he was asking for, this kind of performance would easily cause him to lose points in the eyes of the sect master and the other elders. Even if the reward promised by the sect master was more precious, it wouldn't be worth it.
How could Yang Chen make such a miscalculation this time? Could it be that he felt that he relied on a sneak attack to get rid of a peak Heaven Immortal expert, so he became arrogant? But since Yang Chen had already spoken, Elder Li couldn't stop him even if he wanted to. He could only use the most secretive method to give Yang Chen a look, hoping that Yang Chen could understand his meaning.
"It's over!" Yang Chen's disregard made Elder Li's heart sink, but on the surface, he still had to maintain his composure. Since things had already come to this, there was no point in stopping him anymore. He could only take one step at a time and see if he could help Yang Chen cover up his words, so that his performance wouldn't be so bad.
"If there's a chance to capture the core figures of the Zhao Clan alive, disciple pleads Sect Master to leave one for disciple no matter what. Disciple will personally cut him into pieces to comfort Master Li's soul in heaven!" Yang Chen's words already carried a sense of gnashing his teeth, his face was filled with uncontrollable excitement: "No matter what, leave one for disciple. Disciple is willing to use all the credit to exchange for this grace!"
Yang Chen's performance was definitely at the level of a Best Actor. As he spoke, the expression on his face, the tone of his mouth, and even his eyes were filled with an indescribable anger and sadness. Anyone who heard Yang Chen's words couldn't help but empathize with him. His nostalgia for his master and hatred for the Zhao family were vividly displayed in front of the higher-ups of the Mysterious Heaven Sect.
Looking at Yang Chen's eyes, Sect Leader Wang's heart was stirred. How could he bear to say no? The other elders were similarly moved. With such a disciple and such a request, who could bear to refuse? How many disciples in the Sect, who had been nurtured with great effort, could perform as well as Yang Chen?
The stone in Elder Li's heart had completely fallen to the ground. Yang Chen really did not let him down. How was this arrogance due to being favored? This was clearly placing the sect above everything else. If Yang Chen could show such sincerity for Master Li in the mortal world today, he would be able to go through fire and water for Elder Li in the spiritual world in the future.
"Alright! This old man approves of this request! " Sect Leader Wang didn't say anything else and almost guaranteed Yang Chen, "As long as we can catch them, we will definitely keep them for you! Aren't you an executioner? I'll leave them all to you to execute! "
"Thank you, Sect Leader, for your grace!" Yang Chen immediately thanked him. If he didn't show his respect for his master now, when would he be able to show it? In any case, he only needed to put on a show here in the Mysterious Heaven Sect. Could it be that the elders present would really forget about his reward? Even if the other elders were willing, Elder Li would definitely not be willing.
"This is the Sect Leader's grace, not a reward for your meritorious service!" Sure enough, Elder Li was next to him and said the words that the sect master had promised to follow Yang Chen's words and said that it was a grace. Since it was a grace, it wasn't a reward, so he still had to give it a reward.
"Tell me, what kind of reward do you want?" Sect Leader Wang didn't think there was anything wrong with Elder Li's words. If he treated this as a reward, then it would be a sign of muddle-headedness. How could Sect Leader Wang make such a mistake?
"Disciple asks Sect Leader to give disciple some books from the Sect." This was the second time that Sect Master Wang asked Yang Chen to talk about the reward. Yang Chen, of course, would not continue to pretend, and immediately climbed up the pole and said: "This disciple does not want to practice the classics, just some leisure books and miscellaneous notes, to open my eyes."
"Approved!" The Sect Leader directly agreed without thinking. The Mysterious Heaven Sect had a lot of miscellaneous books, and this disciple was famous for liking to read these kinds of books. Even in the mortal world, he had a reputation for collecting all kinds of miscellaneous books. His request was not surprising at all. "You can spread the news that you exchanged for it with pills."
This was killing two birds with one stone. First, it was really what Yang Chen wanted, and second, it was a smokescreen for the other Sect. This way, even though the relationship between Yang Chen and the Mysterious Heaven Sect was not very good and could even be considered antagonistic, with this kind of business relationship and the fact that Tao Junqi and Yang Chen were husband and wife, it was not surprising that Yang Chen wasn't embarrassed.
"From today onwards, increase Tao Junqi's share by five times and allow her to choose a treasure from the Sect's Bountiful Treasure Pavilion." Yang Chen had spoken, and the Sect had agreed. However, the Sect Leader still felt that some miscellaneous books were not enough to make up for Yang Chen's contribution this time. Fortunately, Yang Chen had a concubine in the Mysterious Heaven Sect, so it was the same to give her benefits. After all, husband and wife were one.
The elders had no objections to the Sect Leader's arrangements. Yang Chen thanked the Sect Leader on behalf of Tao Junqi again. Then, under Elder Li's urging, he carefully explained his whereabouts in recent years.
In fact, this was nothing. In everyone's eyes, Yang Chen had done nothing but alchemy in the past few years. This was irrefutable evidence from the number of Five-Revolution Marrow Pill and Four-Revolution Appearance Pill that Wanbao Tower had taken out. On the other hand, there were mortal disciples ascending from Chunyang Palace almost every once in a while, which was very exciting.
For the time being, the Mysterious Heaven Sect did not need Chunyang Palace to do anything. They just needed to develop in peace. The current situation in Chunyang Palace was indeed like this, so there was basically no need for special instructions.
When Tao Junqi learned of the Sect Leader's decision from Yang Chen, she was very happy. She didn't know what kind of deal her husband had made with the Sect, but the benefits fell on her. Over the years, Tao Junqi had clearly felt the change in her status in the Sect, and she was even more loyal to Yang Chen.
On the surface, the relationship between Yang Chen and the Mysterious Heaven Sect was the worst. Therefore, Yang Chen left the Mysterious Heaven Sect under Tao Junqi's reluctant gaze after staying here for a few days.
This time, Yang Chen basically came out to promote the Appearance Pill. Then, he rushed back to Chunyang Palace and announced that he would refine elixirs in seclusion.
The reason why he was so anxious was that Yang Chen noticed that Master Wang of Blessing-Gathering Building finally had results in refining the Dragon Grass. It was time to know what Master Wang wanted to do.
