C381 Servants' Office
On the Qingluan Peak.
Chu Yun looked at Lin Xuan who was cultivating inside the Time Sphere and slowly nodded his head.
After consuming the Spiritual Aura Body Opening Pill, all the impurities in Lin Xuan's meridians were removed, and his entire body became transparent. He had turned from a useless person who was not good at cultivation into a good seedling.
But of course. . .
He could only be considered a good seedling. Compared to those who were born with spiritual bodies, he was still far from being a good seedling.
However, even so, Chu Yun was already very satisfied. As long as he had a passable physique and the help of the Time Ball, it wouldn't be difficult for him to break through to the Myriad Stone Stage in these forty days.
Seeing that Lin Xuan had already started cultivating, Lo Qingcheng urged Yang Xiaochan to continue consolidating her cultivation technique. Then, she came to Chu Yun's side, looked at him and said, "What evil ideas are you having in your heart?"
"Not at all. . . "
Chu Yun shook his head and said, "It's just that I have something to do. "
Lo Qingcheng nodded and smiled and said, "The Saint who took Sun Qianer as his disciple is the senior sister Liu Ruoxi of Twin Sky Peak. My relationship with senior sister Liu is not bad. Do you want me to talk to her?"
Chu Yun thought for a while and said with a smile, "There is no need. I will go and find out who is the one who wants to kill Lin Xuan. If there is any relation with Sun Qianer, then we will talk about it. "
"Alright. "
Lo Qingcheng nodded and watched Chu Yun leave.
. . .
After leaving Qingluan Peak, Chu Yun went all the way to the Black Cloud Bee in the outer sect and arrived at the bottom of the Medicine Cliff.
Lin Xuan had fallen off the Medicine Cliff at that time. If he wanted to investigate who had killed Lin Xuan, he naturally had to start from here.
He flew to the cliff. At this moment, there was a group of service disciples tied up by ropes on the edge of the cliff. They were preparing to go down the cliff to pick herbs. When they saw Chu Yun wearing the uniform of an elder, they stopped in their tracks and bowed to Chu Yun.
"Who is the person in charge here?"
Chu Yun asked slowly.
"It's Steward Huang Huang Hai from Servant Division. . . "
A servant disciple answered in a low voice.
Chu Yun looked at the person who spoke and asked, "Where is he? Bring me to him. "
. . . "Yes. "
The disciple cursed in his heart. He didn't dare to delay any longer. He brought Chu Yun away from Yao Ya and headed straight to the Servant Division.
The Servant Division didn't have a high position in the sect. They were in charge of all the miscellaneous tasks in the Sect, such as planting herbs, harvesting herbs, raising demon beasts, and so on. There were a total of ten stewards in the division. Steward Huang was in charge of collecting herbs.
When they arrived at the Servant Division, the disciple brought Chu Yun to the area where the herbs were distributed. After asking around, he found out that Steward Huang wasn't in the Sect anymore. The one who came to greet Chu Yun was Steward Liang, who was in charge of planting herbs.
"He's not in the sect anymore? Where did he go?"
Chu Yun asked.
Steward Liang replied, "In reply to Elder Chu, Old Huang went to Yuandao City to buy a new batch of spiritual herbs and seeds. "
"When did he leave? Where did he go to buy spiritual herb seeds?"
Chu Yun frowned.
"He just left not long ago. . . "
Steward Liang replied, "If we are buying seeds, we will go to the Magical Life Chamber of Commerce in Yuandao City. "
As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Yun had already stood up and left for Yuandao City.
As a guest elder, Chu Yun could move freely in Elemental Dao Spiritual Heaven Sect. It was as easy as walking around the backyard of Yuandao City and Fukong Island, and he didn't need anyone's permission.
He took the teleportation formation and teleported to the Yuandao City below in an instant. After asking people where the Magical Life Chamber of Commerce was located, Chu Yun had already gone there.
But. . .
To be honest, Chu Yun felt that there was not much hope of finding him.
After all, there would not be such a coincidence in this world. The moment Lin Xuan fell off the cliff and was rescued by him, Steward Huang immediately went out to buy herbs.
If nothing unexpected happened, it must be. Someone heard the news and told Steward Huang to hide, or simply kill him.
The matter of Lin Xuan being persecuted was essentially Sun Qianer's suitor. She wanted Lin Xuan to die. So this matter wasn't Steward Huang's own idea. There was someone else behind him.
As expected. . .
When Chu Yun arrived at the Spiritual Life Chamber of Commerce and asked around, he received an answer that Steward Huang hadn't come to. This confirmed Chu Yun's guess.
"Interesting. . . "
Chu Yun's lips slowly curved up. After thinking for a while, he found out more about the Magical Life Chamber of Commerce and returned to Fukong Island.
At this moment, in the Servant Division.
Steward Liang stood respectfully in his study room. In front of him was a chair that he often sat on. Sitting on it was a man with a cold face. He was the deacon of Black Cloud Peak, Fann Chen.
"That Chu Yun came?"
Fann Chen asked.
"Yes. . . "
Steward Liang nodded and said, "He asked about Huang and left. "
Fann Chen stood up and walked to Steward Liang. He patted Steward Liang's shoulder and said, "Old Huang will not be back for the time being. He is in charge of this matter. You can do it for him for the time being. "
After saying that, Steward Liang lowered his head obediently. A bright light flashed across his eyes. His heart was beating fast. It was enough to show the excitement in his heart.
Fann Chen's words didn't mean as simple as it seemed on the surface. He didn't only ask Steward Liang to take over the job of Servant Division on the surface, but also some shady business.
Previously, Steward Huang was in charge of collecting herbs and buying herbs. There wasn't much profit from collecting herbs, but when buying herbs in this area, the profit margin was shockingly high.
No matter if it was eating or getting rebated, As long as he did not overdo it. . . Steward Liang could explain it openly. According to his own observations, the amount of spiritual herbs that the Servant Division purchased every year was about 15% of the total amount that Steward Huang had taken away!
In fact, this amount of money had already exceeded the authority and appetite of a small manager like Steward Huang. He was just a chess piece for the people behind the scenes, helping those big shots to earn money.
But. . .
Even so, just a little bit of it from the fingers of those big shots was enough for Steward Huang to make a lot of money.
And now, this fat job fell on his head!
"Many thanks for Deacon Fan's nurturing, many thanks for Elder's trust. . . "
Steward Liang was laughing so hard in his heart that he could not close his mouth. He quickly expressed his gratitude.
However. . .
Fann Chen stood in front of him with a faint smile on his face. He said, "It's good that you know how to thank me. It wasn't in vain that I won this opportunity for you. You should know the rules of what Huang wants to do. It was decided by the elder. But other than that, you have to think about my rules as well. "
"Er. . . "
As soon as he finished speaking, it was like a basin of cold water had been poured on Steward Liang's head, extinguishing most of the joy in his heart.
The meaning behind Fann Chen's words was very obvious.
The money he earned in this business, other than giving a portion to the elder, he also wanted to give another portion to Fann Chen.
No matter what, he wouldn't dare to give the elder a fifth of the money. In addition, Fann Chen also asked for an extra portion. He could only get some more from the total amount of money.
This matter wouldn't affect Steward Liang's own interests, but he was still very nervous because. . . He didn't know. . . Was Fann Chen saying this to test his loyalty on behalf of the elder?
If Fann Chen had come from his heart and wanted to make money, Then he's a little manager at the bottom of the food chain, so naturally he should agree.
But. . .
What if Fann Chen said. . . He was trying to test whether the elder was reliable or not. He should not have agreed to it. Otherwise, he would not be the one to take advantage of the situation. He might even be silenced by the elder because he knew too much. Steward Huang, who had disappeared, was the best precedent.
For a moment, Steward Liang was in a dilemma. He felt as if he was dancing on the tip of a knife. He didn't dare to give an answer, and he couldn't guess whether Fann Chen was speaking for him or to test him. He was in a dilemma.
"What? You don't want to thank me?"
Fann Chen narrowed his eyes. A dangerous aura was revealed in his eyes, and he was urging him to hurry up.
"No, no, no, I. . . "
Steward Liang felt even more conflicted. He was in a dilemma.
In fact, what Fann Chen said was to help Elder Gao Yi test the waters, and not to make money himself.
To do such a shady thing, one had to be careful in the long run. This was always the first rule of survival. Gaoyi was especially good at this path. He had set a 15% profit margin, and he would not allow anyone to make more money, because once the profit exceeded this ratio, it would be very easy for others to find out about it. At that time, it would be a disaster.
So. . .
If Steward Liang agreed to help Fann Chen get another benefit, Fann Chen would immediately send Steward Liang to meet Steward Huang, and let these two be a pair of brothers in trouble.
"Attendant Fan. . . I. . . "
Steward Liang hesitated for a long time and finally made a decision. He was about to reply.
Thump! Thump!
The sound of rapid knocks on the door was heard. Steward Liang, who was so nervous that his entire body was covered in cold sweat, was somewhat frightened. He asked in a flustered and exasperated manner. "Who doesn't have eyes? Didn't I tell you not to come and disturb me?!"
The flustered voice of the service disciple could be heard from outside the door. "Steward Liang, it's bad. Elder Chu Yun is here again. . . "
Steward Liang was stunned for a moment after he said that.
Fann Chen, who was opposite him, also frowned slightly. After the two of them looked at each other, Fann Chen raised his eyes to signal.
Steward Liang immediately asked, "What is he doing here again? Is he still investigating Steward Huang?"
"No. . . "1
The service disciple replied, "He went to the warehouse of the Servant Division's spiritual herbs and seeds!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Steward Liang's face turned pale. He turned pale with fright and looked at Fann Chen in a panic. However, when he looked at Fann Chen, he found that Fann Chen's face was also filled with shock. There seemed to be a trace of deep fear in the depths of his eyes. He left with just one sentence and left immediately.
"Stabilize him immediately. I will report to the elder!"
