“What?” Mu Qianru stared in disbelief at Jiang Yuan.
Jiang Yuan laughed, “You’re free now. You can go wherever you want, you don’t have to stay with me anymore!”
“You’re not lying to me?” She was still somewhat incredulous.
“Why would I lie to you! My purpose for keeping you near has been achieved, you’re no longer useful to me! Be on your way!” Jiang Yuan dismissed her with a wave.
She looked deeply at Jiang Yuan, a smile tugging at her lips: “Alright!”
As Mu Qianru’s words fell, she turned into a red silhouette, shooting straight up into the sky.
Watching Jiang Yuan approach, Lu Qingshan said, “I thought you wanted to keep her around forever! That Demon Cult Holy Daughter is quite a looker, huh!”
Jiang Yuan replied, “Originally, I was planning to keep her for a few more days. It’s quite pleasant to watch her dance! But now that I know she’s Chief Mu’s niece, that wouldn’t be appropriate!”
Lu Qingshan couldn’t help but chuckle: “Only you could say something like, ‘It’s quite pleasant to watch her dance!’”
A moment later.
The group boarded the silvery flying boat once again.
A sweet smile spread across Shu Xiaoxiao’s face. That demoness was finally not beside Young Master anymore.
Half a day later.
The Supreme Mystery Sect.
Still, that grand hall.
At this time, all the sect chiefs except Kong Nian gathered, and all the grand elders arrived one by one.
Lu Qingshan said, “First of all, let me announce something. The recently discovered spiritual stone mine, thanks to Jiang Yuan’s gallant efforts, now belongs to our Supreme Mystery Sect.”
“From now on, our Supreme Mystery Sect will have four spiritual stone mines!”
Upon hearing this, everyone’s faces lit up with joy.
Although they were already mentally prepared, with the matter not yet completely settled, anything could have happened.
Now everything had been finalized. From now on, the annual spiritual stone supply of each major branch of the Supreme Mystery Sect will increase significantly, and benefits and treatment will be even better. Naturally, this is a great joy.
Lu Qingshan, looking at everyone, continued, “Now let’s discuss the rewards for Jiang Yuan.”
“You need to know, this time Sunset Sect had a Spiritual Sea Realm genius younger than twenty-five years old.”
“If it weren’t for Jiang Yuan’s gallant efforts, this spiritual stone mine wouldn’t have been that easy to acquire!”
The Fifth Elder also nodded, “Sect Leader’s words are true, I once thought there was no hope at all. Fortunately, Jiang Yuan was strong enough to make everything as easy as sweeping fall leaves.”
This time, Chief Mu calmly said, “Sect Leader, just say how you plan to reward him.”
Lu Qingshan replied, “Anything simple. Thirty percent of the profits from this spiritual stone mine will belong to Jiang Yuan.”
“That…Isn’t that a bit too much?” An elder suddenly said, stunned.
Wu Yin also frowned, “That’s too much! If it is so, he alone would have more shares than our Slanting Moon Peak.”
Lu Qingshan looked at him, “You are aware of Jiang Yuan’s performance. If it weren’t for him, we probably wouldn’t have gained a single cent! Don’t discourage others!”
Then he looked at the others, “Let’s vote now!”
“Okay!”
Everyone nodded in agreement.
After a while.
Lu Qingshan smiled, “Eight agreed, three abstained!”
“Since this is the case, thirty percent of the profits will go to Jiang Yuan! This decision is final, there shall be no further discussion in the future.”
“Yes, Sect Leader!” Everyone nodded in agreement.
Sunset Sect.
Inside the main hall.
Sect Master Ling Feng looked at the people below, “Now that you all know what happened earlier, what should we do?”
Fourth Elder indifferently said, “I want Jiang Yuan dead!”
“Agreed!” Gongsun Zhi nodded, then added, “Since we chose the Imperial Family of Qian Yuan, this heaven genius Jiang Yuan must be eliminated!”
“You still don’t realize his performance? This young man has reached the Spiritual Sea Realm. If he successfully condenses his dharma-nature in the future, he is bound to succeed!”
“If he returns for revenge, who could rest easy?”
After these words, all the elders present fell deep in thought.
After a long silence.
A white-bearded old man took half a step forward. This was the Sunset Sect’s Second Elder, Feng Xiaotian. He was also one of the key pillars of Sunset Sect.
He slowly said, “Junior Sister Gongsun’s words make sense! The really must be eliminated!”
“What a pity, when I initially received a report from a disciple, Junior Sister Gongsun had mentioned him to me. I didn’t take it seriously, regrettably letting such a rare genius slip away to the Supreme Mystery Sect.”
Hearing his words, Gongsun Zhi lowered her head and said, “It’s my fault.”
Ling Feng shook his head, “This is all in the past, dwelling on right and wrong is already meaningless! We can only say that we have fate but no fortune with him!”
Then he continued, “Since everyone’s opinion is to kill him, the primary question is how?”
“Professional matters should be solved by professionals!” Feng Xiaotian said indifferently.
“What do you mean, brother?” Ling Feng was somewhat confused.
“Heaven Killing Pavilion!”
“Brother, you mean to spend a high price to hire the Heaven Killing Pavilion to do it?”
“Correct!” Feng Xiaotian nodded, “Heaven Killing Pavilion has businesses across five domains. As long as the price is right, no one can escape their assassinations! If we pay enough, even a Saint can be killed!”
Upon hearing this, Ling Feng hesitated a bit.
“But, it’s said that the price to hire Heaven Killing Pavilion is exorbitantly high!”
“Indeed, it’s high!” Feng Xiaotian slightly nodded, “But they are worth the price. The existence of Heaven Killing Pavilion dates back to ancient times and has continued to this day. Only by asking them to do it can we guarantee the kill!”
Ling Feng looked at the others, “What do the Elders think?”
“I think what the Second Elder said makes sense!” The Fourth Elder nodded.
He then added, “I’m willing to bear thirty percent of the cost!”
Gongsun Zhi also said, “I’m also willing to bear thirty percent of the cost!”
