HCB Chapter 241 A Headache
Chapter 241 A Headache
Third Senior Sister had been thinking about going down the mountain for a while, but kept putting it off.
Because Wu Qinghuan's karmic fire erupted during that period.
Xu Nian and I were cultivating in a small courtyard in the dense forest near the Sword Sect.
Therefore, he did not return to his sect.
The usually carefree third senior sister thought she would take one last look at her junior brothers and sisters before leaving.
He gave a few words of advice, suggesting that it would be best to squeeze out some more spirit stones.
The latter is the key.
Unfortunately, he was blasted away by his master.
After arriving in the Southern Frontier, I worked with my second senior sister to eliminate the demonic cultivators.
Then, just like in his previous life, he infiltrated the Immortal Sect.
They obtained a list of elders who colluded with demonic cultivators.
Together with the elders of the Sword Sect, we will eliminate them all.
Now, although the demonic cultivators have been almost completely wiped out.
But a small number remain hidden.
The Demon Sect Master, that top-tier expert, was also lurking in the shadows, watching with predatory eyes.
Many elders of the Sword Sect, along with the second and third senior sisters, were stationed in the territory of the Fox Clan in the Demon Realm.
One aspect is to prevent attacks from demonic cultivators.
On the other hand, there is the need to deal with the displaced people.
Where there is fighting, there will inevitably be refugees.
Back then, those crazed demonic cultivators could destroy an entire city with a single blood sacrifice array.
Hundreds of thousands of ordinary people were instantly transformed into elixirs.
The people in the nearby cities will definitely be thrown into panic and flee in all directions.
Within a thousand miles, people's hearts are in turmoil.
Running around everywhere, hiding everywhere.
There was no safe place, and the people in every ancient city lived in constant fear.
Thus, the refugees came into being.
The elderly, women, and children may starve or die from exhaustion on the road.
Those who are strong, robust, or even possess some level of cultivation...
To occupy territory is to be king; to become an outlaw is to be a bandit.
He became a bandit again.
Mountain bandits, river bandits, horse bandits.
Back when my second senior sister was in southern Xinjiang, she was suppressing bandits.
By early autumn, the bandit suppression efforts had been largely completed.
Another demonic cultivator has appeared.
Over the course of several months, the demonic cultivators engaged in rampages and insane slaughter.
Evil breeds evil, and now a large number of bandits have emerged.
From a macro perspective, much of the situation in southern Xinjiang has been resolved.
However, if you look at the details, it is still very troublesome and difficult to handle.
Especially now that it's early winter.
Snow is falling, the wind is blowing, and the temperature is getting lower and lower.
Some cultivators with higher levels of cultivation were alright, but ordinary people could only endure the cold.
As a result, the number of refugees will continue to increase.
Opening the city to provide porridge was inevitable.
The resettlement of the displaced people will require a large amount of silver and spirit stones.
If Xu Nian's guess is correct.
The item that Third Senior Sister asked the elder of the Sword Sect Merchant Guild to bring back was probably a letter requesting spirit stones.
pretty close.
I just don't know how many spirit stones she wants.
Not all the refugees needed to be dealt with by the Third Senior Sister and the Second Senior Sister.
It seems that all the immortal sects in the Southern Frontier have contributed their spirit stones.
Stabilize the situation.
The Sword Sect will also contribute a large amount of spirit stones.
Then, the cultivators below rely on their own abilities to obtain spirit stones.
"Refugees from hundreds of ancient cities... tens of millions of people..."
Xu Nian shook her head.
The amount of spirit stones these people need is astronomical.
All of this was the work of those crazed demonic cultivators from the Ten Thousand Demons Sect.
The more chaotic the situation, the happier they are.
It's even possible that they might take advantage of the Immortal Sect's focus on the refugee issue.
Suddenly appearing somewhere, it activates the blood sacrifice array and continues to refine and devour.
They refined all those millions of lives into blood pills and soul pills.
"Although it's a bottomless pit..."
"But we still have to keep throwing money into it..."
Xu Nian sighed.
Just then, a weak voice sounded beside me.
"Senior brother, I understand the reasoning, but why are you holding my ankle?"
"Who, who grabbed your ankle! Qinghuan, why..."
"Get lost, you perverted senior brother!"
Wu Qinghuan completely ignored his sophistry.
Her fair little feet kicked her senior brother in the face.
He kicked it hard several times.
Perverted senior brother!
Big pervert!
By now, the two of them had already found an inn.
He had been cultivating for a long time.
Qinghuan's cultivation level improved once again.
Xu Nian's cultivation has not improved much; at most, his physical body and soul energy have increased slightly.
However, their cultivation level will not increase significantly, and it is even more impossible for them to directly advance to a higher realm.
The energy within him had almost reached its peak.
It can no longer break through to a higher level.
Wu Qinghuan, on the other hand, was different; her improvement was enormous.
Almost every training session resulted in a significant improvement.
"Alright, let's go check out the Chamber of Commerce. I reckon... we'll need quite a few spirit stones this time..."
"Could it be a sweet potato?"
“It’s best if it isn’t…” Xu Nian looked at her.
Wu Qinghuan, who had just put on a shirt and was draping a robe over her shoulders, blinked her eyes.
There are some things I don't understand.
Isn't giving them sweet potatoes a good thing?
Why is it good, and why shouldn't it be?
Why did you say that, senior brother?
It was as if they could read her mind.
Xu Nian sighed helplessly and shook her head, "Do you think anything good can come of Third Senior Sister bribing us with sweet potatoes?"
"hiss…"
Upon hearing Xu Nian's words, Wu Qinghuan immediately understood.
Third Senior Sister is incredibly stingy.
Stingy, the ultimate miser.
That little fox just won't learn anything good; he's picked up bad habits from Third Senior Sister.
They're very stingy now.
I bought so many flower cakes back then, saying I bought them for myself.
When we went to ask for it back, they simply wouldn't give it to us.
Wu Qinghuan was furious about the little fox's stinginess.
Back then, I bought her whatever she wanted.
Now, even if she wants to eat a small pancake, she hides it from everyone.
It's true what they say, daughters are no longer under their mothers' control once they grow up!
How despicable! Absolutely despicable!
What? Senior sister isn't mother?
No! My senior sister is like a mother!
Anyone who disagrees! I, a Nascent Soul cultivator, will be dealt with one-on-one!
Except for my senior brother, whom I can't beat!
I am invincible!
Wu Qinghuan wandered off into her own thoughts for a long time.
A bunch of thoughts flashed through my mind.
Finally, after putting on his robe, he and Xu Nian walked out of the inn.
When the two left the Sword Sect, the snowflakes in the sky were not heavy.
It was just light snow.
Now it's much bigger.
There was a floor below ground.
And judging from its appearance, it seems to be getting bigger and bigger.
"The weather is getting colder and colder, and the refugees are not getting enough to eat or wear. There will be more and more bandits. When that happens, Sister Thirty and the others will probably start to have a headache."
"Bandits? Then...what should we do? Kill them all?"
Xu Nian's lips twitched.
He gave her a disapproving look.
Do all these demonic cultivators think like this?
It's really easy and simple.
A batch appeared, and a batch was killed.
Wouldn't that cause panic again?
At that time, what difference will there be between the Immortal Sect and the Demonic Sect?
The Ten Thousand Demons Sect may have directly emerged from seclusion and begun recruiting disciples on a large scale.
If you want to defy fate, join the Demon Sect.
They directly reversed the Heavenly Stems.
Seeing his senior brother's speechless expression, the demon realized he had said the wrong thing.
He shrank back.
"I...I don't understand these things, I'm sorry..."
She followed behind Xu Nian.
I won't say any more.
