Misfortune (Asking for More Readers!)

Little Lingxu Peak, the main building, inside a room.

Han Yi sat upright with a somewhat tense expression.

Sitting in front of him was a youth in his early forties.

The youth’s face was slightly fatigued, and his eyes were densely covered with bloodshot veins. He was clearly not in good shape.

Han Yi took a deep breath without trying to be tactful, instead speaking to the point:

“Brother Zhou, I’ve come here for the quota.”

The young man sitting in front of him was surnamed Zhou, named Zhou Xiong, and he was the closed-door disciple of Little Lingxu Peak’s master, Fan Mo.

Zhou Xiong’s face relaxed when he heard this.

“Let me be clear, there are not many quotas, and the price has gone up quite high. You need to be prepared.”

“Also, I can only guarantee that having a quota means you have a chance, but it is not 100% successful to avoid it.”

“You need to know this.”

“Of course, don’t worry. If you can’t avoid it and you’re really chosen, half the price will be refunded.”

“You think about it.”

Zhou Xiong’s words were also straightforward.

Han Yi came here for the ‘quota’ mentioned by both of them.

The so-called ‘quota’ refers to the number of spots in Little Lingxu Peak where you won’t be chosen to go and suppress the Heavenly Demons.

This piece of news was leaked to him by a regular customer who came to purchase pills from him.

After Han Yi investigated from multiple sources, he also confirmed the existence of the ‘quota’.

In short.

Han Yi was here to ‘bribe’.

“Brother Zhou, please quote your price. I will do my best to meet it.” Han Yi’s expression was that of someone ready to be butchered.

At this moment, he was indeed ready for it.

Being selected to go and suppress the Heavenly Demons, there was a high probability of death, not to mention the slim chances of survival.

If he could avoid it, he would pay any price.

This was also the reason he was here.

“Thirty medium-grade Spirit Stones, or equivalent in pills or low-grade Spirit Stones.”

“No haggling.”

Hearing this, Han Yi’s face changed.

The price was just too high, outrageously so.

Among the mid-stage Qi cultivating disciples on Little Lingxu Peak, those who could afford this price did not exceed the number of ten fingers. And that was only possible for those with strong pill refining skills and a decade of savings who were at the sixth layer of Qi Cultivation.

“Thirty medium-grade Spirit Stones are equivalent to three thousand low-grade Spirit Stones. My reserves of Spirit Stones are not sufficient, but if I add in the pills, it should be enough.”

A few tables away, several disciples wearing gray robes of outer sect members were also drinking.

“1 heard that our Peak Master joined the recruitment team and will go together to hunt Heavenly Demons, is it true?”

“How could it be fake? The list is already out.”

“Humph, if he hadn’t escaped so easily last time, and resisted a bit more, our Little Lingxu Peak wouldn’t have suffered such heavy losses.”

“All, don’t say that. Escaping in the face of life and death is instinct, there is no blame.”

“By the way, you guys don’t know about the Peak Master’s situation, right? 1 heard that he was scolded by the sect’s higher-ups and has to atone for his sins this time. Did you really think he volunteered for this? Bullshit.”

“Then will our Little Lingxu Peak have a new Peak Master?”

“I think a new Peak Master will be selected soon.”

A few tables away, Han Yi lowered his raised ears.

However, more speculations surfaced in his heart.

The previous news about selecting quotas, although it was done by Fan Mo’s disciple Zhou Xiong and others, the final decision was actually still in Fan Mo’s hands.

Thinking about it now.

Fan Mo was trying to make a final profit for himself, or his descendants, or his family.

Han Yi’s hand holding the wine cup paused slightly.

He suddenly thought of the senior brother who had “leaked” the “quota” information to him.

Thinking back to that time, the “leaking of information” seemed a bit deliberate.

It seems.

Back then, he was already on Fan Mo’s list.

The so-called leaking of information was just about choosing someone wealthy enough from his pocket.

After all, Fan Mo knew about Han Yi’s pill refining skills. Although he didn’t know how rich Han Yi was, he must have saved a lot, and it was worth a try to extort some money.

“Damn, what a cunning man.” Han Yi cursed softly.

“What’s wrong?” Zheng Hai asked.

“Nothing.” Han Yi didn’t elaborate.

He could only keep this matter to himself.

As for whether this matter was against the rules or not, nobody would investigate it if neither officials nor people raise it. What’s the big deal if it is against the rules?

Moreover.

From a certain angle, Han Yi could also be considered one of the beneficiaries, so naturally he wouldn’t do anything unnecessary.

In summary.

He had successfully spent money to avoid disaster.

They finished drinking and went their separate ways.

Half a month later.

Under the leadership of the Supreme Elder of the Xuandan Sect, three Golden Core cultivators, twenty Foundation Establishment cultivators, four hundred late-stage Qi Cultivators, and three thousand middle-stage Qi Cultivators were transported by large sect magic treasures like the Flying Sky God Ship, heading directly to the north of Qianzhou, east of Yujing Mountain Sacred Land, and west of Tai Xu Sect.

This trip.

Would last for three years..
