Gu Xuan did not have enough Fire-condensing Pills and it took him a long time to break through. Fortunately, no one dared to disturb him as he was the sub-sect leader.
At this moment, there were three people sitting cross-legged in Lin Qian's pavilion.
Aside from Lin Qian, there were two other old men. Their auras were faintly above Lin Qian's, especially the white-haired old man sitting in the middle of the group.
The other two were also elders of the sub-school. They were Sun Tong, a Three-Star King Grade Elder, and Su Quanshan, a One-Star King Grade Elder.
"Third Brother, are you sure you're not mistaken? He has a top-notch Mortal Rank Spirit Treasure?"
Su Quanshan looked at Lin Qian and asked in disbelief.
"How could I be wrong? He is only a Seven Star Honorable. To defeat me, he must have some powerful Spiritual Treasure. "Lin Qian's arm had been healed, but his fear of Gu Xuan had not subsided.
The black metal piece was like a blade that cut off his arm instantly. In other words, he could be killed with just a thought. He did not even have the chance to react.
"Humph!" Sun Tong snorted. "What's the use of having a top Spiritual Treasure? He is only a Seven Star Honorable. Challenging a One-Star King is his limit. As long as I take action, I can definitely suppress him!"
"Big Brother, there is no problem if you want to win. However, he is the appointed sub-sect leader of the sect. He is a top genius. We have to give in to him." Su Quanshan shook his head.
"We still have to yield to him. It's just a show of kindness and authority. Previously, which of the few Branch Sect Leaders weren't overbearing and arrogant? They were even more arrogant than Gu Xuan. But in the end, weren't they all subdued and obedient?" Sun Tong snorted indifferently.
"Gu Xuan is not like the previous idiots." Lin Qian shook his head. Although he had only known Gu Xuan for a short time, he could feel that Gu Xuan was extraordinary.
"Humph, Third Brother, I think you are scared out of your wits by Gu Xuan." Sun Tong snorted and said with some dissatisfaction, "The harvest from the spirit crystal mine this time is about to be redeemed. It's a total of 30,000 fire condensing pills. If Gu Xuan hasn't officially become the Sect Master, we can take 5%. If Gu Xuan becomes the Sub-Sect Master, he will get 30%. We won't even dare to take 10%."
"Indeed, we need to drag this out!" Su Quanshan nodded solemnly. Their faction's profits were only so much. At most, they could harvest three or four times a year, and each time, they could take half of the profits. Many a little makes a mickle.
But the moment Gu Xuan came, he wanted to enjoy 30% alone. It was impossible for them to get a rebate.
Therefore, they must hold Gu Xuan back.
"Second Brother, wait for Gu Xuan to come out of seclusion. Go and keep him busy. Let him eat, drink, and play. As long as we can keep him busy for two days, we'll get 1,500 Flame Condensing Pills. As for the harvest this time, give it to Third Brother. He lost a lot," instructed Sun Tong.
"Alright." The corners of Su Quanshan's mouth curled into a smile. No matter how strong and talented Gu Xuan was, he was just a teenager in his eyes. It was enough to use some tricks to get close to him.
Lin Qian remained silent and sighed in his heart. He knew how powerful Gu Xuan was. The two of them were going down the wrong path if they wanted to deal with him. However, there was nothing he could do if the two of them did not believe him.
…
"Eighth Star Honourable Stage, break!"
In the seclusion room, Gu Xuan used the medicinal efficacy of the 4,500 Flame Condensing Pills to break through to the Eighth Star Honourable Stage again and again. Previously, forcefully breaking through would have some impact on his foundation. However, now that he had obtained the help of a Sheng Stage expert to build his foundation, there was no such concern.
The current Gu Xuan was the same as a Two Star Honourable Stage expert who had fallen and re-cultivated. In addition, he had the experience of being a Peak Emperor Stage expert in his previous life. There was no problem at all.
However, Yun Xi had fallen into a deep sleep. Without her help, the absorption of the Flame Condensing Pills would be slower.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
The majestic medicinal efficacy turned into a raging river, continuously breaking through to the Eighth Star Honourable Stage. The extremely strong bottleneck began to crack under Gu Xuan's continuous attacks.
Boom!
With the last attack, the strong barrier was completely blasted open. Gu Xuan's aura rose and reached the Eighth Star Honourable Stage.
"Great, I have finally advanced by one star in two days!" Gu Xuan's eyes revealed a touch of joy. After stepping into the Eighth Star Honourable Stage, he dared to fight against an ordinary Three Star King Stage expert with the help of the black metal plate.
After breaking through, Gu Xuan opened the door of the seclusion room and walked out. However, he saw the figure of a thin and weak old man.
"One Star King Stage Elder Su Quanshan greets the Sect Master!" Su Quanshan bowed respectfully to Gu Xuan.
"Mm." Gu Xuan faintly nodded. The three king level masters of the sub-school had colluded together and were able to do whatever they wanted. Therefore, even a fool would not believe that Su Quanshan had nothing to do with Lin Qian.
Su Quanshan felt helpless in his heart. The deal was about to be completed in half a day. If Gu Xuan cultivated for another half a day, they would have obtained 1,500 Condensing Fire Pills and would not need to do anything else. However, Gu Xuan had to appear at this juncture.
"Sect Master, this is a small token of my appreciation." Su Quanshan took out a black cloth bag from his spatial ring and handed it to Gu Xuan.
"300 Condensing Fire Pills?" Gu Xuan scanned the bag with his spiritual strength and found out the number of Condensing Fire Pills in it. His eyes revealed a slight smile and he accepted it. No matter what Su Quanshan's intention was, since the Condensing Fire Pills were delivered to him, Gu Xuan had no reason to reject it.
"Sect Master has just arrived in the Chaos Region. I'm afraid that you don't know the situation here. Although the cultivation environment here is far inferior to the sect, enjoyment, hehe …"
Su Quanshan gave Gu Xuan a meaningful look and said in a flirtatious tone, "The strongest cultivator in the Chaos Realm, Old Zi, once opened a place to seek pleasure. There is everything in there. How about I bring the Sovereign there to enjoy tonight?"
Seeing that Gu Xuan was unmoved, Su Quanshan hurriedly said, "The most important thing in cultivation is to have a sense of tension and relaxation. Relaxing appropriately will also be beneficial to the improvement of one's strength. Don't you think so, Sect Master?"
Gu Xuan glanced at Su Quanshan, the corners of his mouth revealing a faint smile as he said, "It won't be too late to talk about these things later. Since I have already come to the branch school, you should hand over all the matters of the branch school to me, right?"
"Of course, of course." Su Quanshan's face revealed a bit of nervousness, "It's just that Sect Master will be here for a long time. Why don't you give me face and let me take Sect Master to enjoy while understanding the situation?"
"What if I say no?" Gu Xuan looked at Su Quanshan and said coldly.
Although he did not understand why Su Quanshan was doing this, but since he was doing this, there must be a reason.
Su Quanshan was slightly surprised. Apparently, he did not think that Gu Xuan would be so direct. He first gave a gift and then tried to curry favor with Gu Xuan. He thought that Gu Xuan would be embarrassed and embarrassed to refuse.
He did not expect that Gu Xuan would be like this. Although he had accepted the gift, he still turned his face.
"Since Sect Master said no, then I naturally have to listen to Sect Master's instructions. I will now take Sect Master to see Elder Sun Tong." Su Quanshan said with some embarrassment.
"You want me to see?" Gu Xuan's face revealed a bit of coldness, "Then I want to ask you, in the sub-sect, who is the Sect Master? I am the Sect Master. Do you want me to see an elder? You go and call the two of them. I will give you a quarter of an hour. "
"Good." Su Quanshan helplessly nodded. He now understood why his third brother had such a high evaluation of Gu Xuan. It was not because he was scared by Gu Xuan, but because Gu Xuan was too different from ordinary geniuses.
He didn't look like a teenager at all. Instead, he looked like an expert who ruled over a region. He was arrogant and domineering, and he was awe-inspiring without being angry.
After Su Quanshan left, Gu Xuan indifferently sat on the main seat. The reason why the entire sub-school had declined was because of the relationship between these three elders and Gu Xuan. If Gu Xuan did not sit on this seat, he would not have bothered to take care of these things.
But since he was the Sect Master of this sub-sect, even if it was only because of the congealing fire pills, he had to eliminate those who displeased him.
Not long after, Su Quanshan and two other people came over.
"I am Sun Tong, a three star king level elder. Greetings to the Sect Master." The white-haired old man Sun Tong walked in the front, with a bit of arrogance on his face, and said casually.
A One-Star King Level Martial Artist could be cultivated by the sect with some resources, but a Three-Star King Level Martial Artist was far more difficult to cultivate. Therefore, Sun Tong was also the real pillar of the sub-sect, and her status was higher than Lin Qian's.
The two of them were afraid of Gu Xuan. Although Sun Tong did not put Gu Xuan in his eyes, there was no problem in treating him as an equal.
"Elder Sun, since I am the Branch Sect Leader and have already assumed my position, I believe that all matters of the sect should be handed over to me, right?" Gu Xuan's gaze landed on the white-haired Sun Tong as he spoke faintly.
"I think the Sect Master wants to control the sub-sect now, but it is a bit too hasty." Sun Tong snorted and shook his head indifferently, "There are hundreds of venerable level peak warriors in the sub-sect, a large number of slave miners, and three large spirit crystal mines. This is a big deal, how can you be hasty?"
Gu Xuan raised his eyebrows and asked again, "What do you mean?"
Sun Tong waved his hand and said, "In my opinion, the Sect Master still needs to observe for three months, and then I will arrange some small things for the Sect Master to practice for three months. Only then can you control the sub-sect. As for the congealing fire pills that the Sect Master deserves, I will send them regularly."
Gu Xuan's face showed a bit of coldness. Observe for three months, practice for three months, this Sun Tong really thought that he was weak and could be bullied. How long had he stayed here?
As for the regular delivery of the congealing fire pills, it was even more of a joke. If he did not personally control the sub-sect, it would be good if he could send 10% of the congealing fire pills.
