Southern Desert Region, Colored Glass Mountain.
An old man with a sage-like demeanor looked at the long list in his hand with a satisfied look on his face.
"That's right! That's how it should be!
Last time, Gu Xuan 'borrowed' so many elixirs from my Colored Glass Sect.
If we return it tenfold, we can barely make up for the loss and mental consolation fee of the Colored Glass Sect. "
The elder smiled as he stroked his white beard.
The surrounding Colored Glass Sect's upper echelons almost stumbled and fell.
Barely make up for it?
Mental consolation fee?
What the hell was this!
The number of elixirs on the list was already ten times the number of the elixirs that Gu Xuan took away!
If they were to compensate ten times, it would be equivalent to a hundred times the loss!
The one who needed the mental consolation fee was probably Ying Tianzong, right?
However, Ying Tianzong was not a fool. As an Alchemy Emperor, Gu Xuan probably knew how many elixirs he took away.
The Sect Master's actions were no different from extortion.
Would Ying Tianzong really agree?
Would Gu Xuan really compromise?
Everything was still unknown.
The Colored Glass Sect's upper echelons sighed in their hearts. This trip was probably very dangerous.
However, seeing how happy the Sect Master was, they really did not want to ruin his "mood" of extortion.
Don't be fooled by the Sect Master's sage-like and amiable appearance. Anyone who ruined his "mood" would not have a good ending.
For example, the younger generation of the Sect Master and the younger generation. It was said that because they ruined the Sect Master's "mood", they disappeared alive.
The current Colored Glass Sect's upper echelons were at least two generations lower than the Sect Master. Many were even three generations lower.
Even among the hidden sects, this kind of situation could be considered a miracle.
A generation's inheritance was broken!
This was also the reason why the Colored Glass Sect was declining.
"Let's go!"
The elder waved his right hand and led dozens of people in the direction of Ying Tianzong.
After a quarter of an hour, the elder suddenly stopped and looked in the direction of the Vermilion Bird Sect.
"Nag Nag, come here!"
The elder suddenly roared.
A middle-aged man with a Daoist bun on his head walked to the elder with a dejected look.
"Grandmaster, please call me by my full name, Lao De Dao!"
The old man didn't care at all.
"You want to ascend to immortality with your looks?
I have a gift for the Vermilion Bird Celestial Sect. Tell them to congratulate them! "
Lao De Dao frowned and said, "Congratulate for what? There has to be a reason, right? "
The old man scolded, "If I tell you to do something, just do it. Don't ask so many questions.
Do you know why I'm so old? "
"Why?"
"Because when my grandmaster told me to do something, I never asked why!
My master was beaten to death by my grandmaster just because he asked why. "
Lauder said, "..."
Whoosh!
Taking the old man's spatial ring, Lao De Dao flew away like a wisp of smoke.
"The rest of you, follow me! Eh, aren't those people from the Yellow Robe Sect?
Last time, I was careless and allowed them to make a huge profit. It was all thanks to me. Let's go and collect some interest first! "
The old man waved his hand, and the group of people flew in the direction of the Yellow Robe Sect.
Western Territory, the tallest mountain, halfway up Yueyang Mountain.
A group of dozens of people sat on a warship and shuttled through the void, sweeping away layers of clouds.
On the warship, there was a flag with the word "Shangguan" written on it. The flag was flamboyant, and there was a faint flow of energy. It was very mysterious.
The leader was a young man with a handsome face. The corners of his mouth were slightly curled up.
The aura of a superior was unmistakable from him.
An hour later, the warship had already flown to the imperial capital of the Great Mist Empire.
The shadow of the warship was like a dark cloud, shrouding the core of the imperial palace.
The Great Mist Empire's Shangguan Emperor and a group of important officials stood there.
Being shrouded by this shadow, everyone looked dissatisfied, but no one dared to make a sound.
"Greetings, Second Young Master!"
Shangguan Emperor cupped his hands slightly, and his tone was neither servile nor overbearing.
The young man on the warship had a much higher status than him in the Shangguan Clan.
The Great Mist Empire was just a large force under the Shangguan Clan.
And this person was the second successor of the Shangguan Clan, Shangguan Honghu!
"This time, you only have two spots to go to the Ying Tian Sect. Have you decided who to choose? "
Shangguan Honghu looked at the sky and spoke in a disdainful tone, as if he didn't put the people below in his eyes.
If it wasn't for the fact that Shangguan Emperor had offered a "Grade Nine Life Returning Pill" and the Patriarch's order to give the Great Mist Empire two spots, they wouldn't even have the right to see his warship.
Why would he need to personally pick them up?
Shangguan Emperor smiled. "It's already decided. Jun 'er, Yunyun, this time, the two of you will represent the Great Mist Empire to congratulate Lord Gu Xuan. "
"Yes!"
A man and a woman's voices were filled with excitement.
"Congratulations, First Prince. Congratulations, Princess Yunyun!"
Many people around them were congratulating the man and woman.
Being able to ride on the family's warship and the opportunity to go to the Ying Tian Sect was a great thing.
No one was jealous, and no one dared to be jealous.
The reason why the Great Mist Empire was so valued by the family was because of Gu Xuan's help back then.
And to be able to form a good relationship with Gu Xuan, it was all because of Princess Yunyun.
Many people believed that Princess Yunyun was favored by Shangguan Emperor. That was why she was able to become a princess in a single step.
However, only these important officials of the empire knew that it was actually Shangguan Emperor who had benefited from Princess Yunyun.
Princess Yunyun's relationship with Gu Xuan was much closer than Shangguan Emperor's relationship with Gu Xuan.
After all, Princess Yunyun had "almost" become Gu Xuan's disciple back then.
Although Gu Xuan had rejected her back then, who knew if he would agree in the future?
Of course, none of the other members of the Shangguan Clan knew about this.
Shangguan Honghu frowned.
It was fine if Shangguan Jun took one of the spots. After all, he was a member of the Shangguan Clan.
What was going on with Princess Yunyun?
He had heard that this so-called Princess Yunyun was only the daughter of a lowly trading company's leader.
Whoosh whoosh!
Shangguan Jun and Princess Yunyun turned into two streaks of light and flew onto the warship from below.
Shangguan Honghu's frown deepened.
Behind him, an old man who looked like a housekeeper understood. He snorted coldly and stood in front of Princess Yunyun.
"Only members of the Shangguan Clan can ride on our Shangguan Clan's warship.
Princess Yunyun, I think it's better if you leave. "
Princess Yunyun was so angry that her chest heaved up and down violently. Her pretty face turned red.
"What do you mean by this! The spots for the Great Mist Empire were given by the ancestor himself. Are you going to defy the ancestor's orders? "
Shangguan Jun immediately stood in front of Princess Yunyun. As her older brother, he couldn't let his younger sister be bullied!
"Are you questioning me?"
