The Great Wild God - Chapter 133
Chapter 133 Benefit First
Chen Xun forcefully took out the Nine Beasts Yang Refining Furnace from his pocket and said,
“Apart from cutting off a pile of rotten skin from the demonic toad, there is also only these flesh and blood and hearts. Chen Xun is willing to give these and Phoenix Blood Wood to the Su Wu Commandant’s Manor and to Master Thirteen …”
Although Su Qingfeng and Su Lingyin’s attitudes this time caused Chen Xun to feel a chill in his heart, knowing that they paid more attention to the interests of the Su Clan and the Azure Water College, in the current situation, he could only continue to hold Su Qingfeng and Su Lingyin’s thighs.
Seeing Chen Xun open the copper coin in the Nine Beasts Yang Refining Furnace, everyone was shocked to see that the Demonic Toad’s heart was still pounding a few days after it was taken off. They all thought in their hearts, although the toads were low-grade, the bloodline of the Demonic Toad after mutation was not weak. This toad’s heart was bound to be able to refine many top grade Nine Orifices Nourishing Pills.
Spiritual items like Toad Heart that could improve bloodline aptitude and increase cultivation potential fell into the hands of rogue cultivators. They were of little use, and those large sects and aristocratic clans that would cultivate their own disciples at all costs paid special attention to such spiritual items.
Jiang Bingyun did not expect Chen Xun to have such a good item in his hand, but thinking that Chen Xun was alone, he dared to venture into such a dangerous place as the Frost Lake Swamp. It was not worth making a fuss to have a few good items in his hand.
Jiang Bingyun thought of what Chen Xun had said to Su Lingyin in the Azure Moon Pavilion that day.
Cultivation was a matter of insistence.
It sounded uncomfortable, and sometimes it had to be admitted that it made sense.
Jiang Bingyun looked at Chen Xun and saw that his pupils were wandering. She didn’t know what kind of slippery thoughts were circulating in his mind, but she felt that it was really impossible to discuss him.
Su Fuchen and Su Fanglong were quite satisfied when they heard that Chen Xun was willing to hand over the toad meat, toad heart, and Phoenix Blood Wood. Otherwise, if they really had the courage to ask for it, their skin would always be ugly.
Thinking about it, Chen Xun’s aggressive and unruly attitude wasn’t a big problem. Young people would always have a small problem. As long as they could understand the general situation, they would still be able to save him.
Chen Xun added, “The demonic toad still has a skeleton and the corpse of the two-headed eagle. I didn’t even have time to retrieve it, so I had Gui Xi and the others snatch it away. Chen Xun is also willing to give all of this to Commandant Su Wu’s mansion and Master Thirteen …”
Chen Xun could endure a breath of air and flatter the people of the Academy, but he didn’t have a good expression on his face towards Ghost Faction. Taking advantage of their helplessness towards him, if they could stab him again, they would definitely not be soft-hearted.
Hearing Chen Xun’s words, Lou Li’s eyes darkened.
He never imagined that this brat was only sixteen or seventeen years old, yet he was actually shameless to such an extent.
However, he had to argue. The two-headed eagle’s corpse and the demonic toad’s skeleton seemed to make sense even if they insisted that they had snatched it from Chen Xun.
If Chen Xun ran over and asked them for the corpse of the Twin-Headed Vulture and the skeleton of the demonic toad, they could ignore it. However, this little beast turned around and said that it would give all of these things to Su Qingfeng and the Su Wu Commandant’s Manor. What would they do?
For this matter, the elders had traveled thousands of miles to the Frost Lake Swamp, so they had to give an explanation.
Lou Yaoyi was so angry that his entire body trembled, but in front of the elders, no one dared to be presumptuous.
Su Qingfeng scratched his head and looked at Su Fanglong, Su Lingyin, and the others. It was only then that he felt that Chen Xun’s cunning was truly a headache.
Chen Xun, Tie Xintong, and the others simply did not have the ability to bring the Phoenix Blood Wood safely back to the camp. Once the news leaked out, the disciples of the Black Frost Sect would probably snatch it away.
Chen Xun said that he was offering the Phoenix Blood Wood and the Demonic Toad’s flesh and blood and heart to the College, yet they were actually taking these things for nothing in front of everyone’s eyes?
Moreover, the remains of the Twin-Headed Vulture and the Demonic Toad fell into the hands of the Ghost Xi Tribe. Chen Xun simply did not have the ability to obtain them. However, with a change of tone, he had to obtain these things from the Ghost Xi Tribe on Chen Xun’s behalf.
Of course, he could not say that Chen Xun was wrong.
This time, Chen Xun was nominally offering these things to the Academy through the Su Wu Commandant’s Mansion. It was his Thirteenth Master’s credit. There should be an extra reward from the Sect Master. He couldn’t help but exert a little effort. He stared at Lou Li and the others with his dark eyes. He had to think of a way to force them to hand over the items.
Su Quan snorted coldly. Looking at that brat, he felt as if his heart was stuffed with grass. However, he could not say anything else about this matter. He thought to himself that the toad skeleton and the twin-headed vulture that had been beaten into a pile of rotten meat had nothing to contend with.
The key was still this batch of Phoenix Blood Wood. Chen Xun was willing to give it up, and Su Quan could see that Su Fanglong and the others were quite satisfied with it. Even if Su Fuchen had nothing to say, what could he say?
Su Fanglong exchanged glances with Su Lingyin and the others. After pondering for a moment, he said to Chen Xun, “These ten plus Phoenix Blood Wood and Toad Meat, Toad Heart, are priceless. The College will not let you go for nothing.” If you need anything, you can tell us when you get back to the camp. Naturally, you won’t be at a disadvantage. “Also, the competition between you and Lou Shiyi is temporarily over. After these three months, we will report it to Master Qingyang and then discuss it, alright?”
“Brother Lou, what do you think?” Chen Xun glanced at Lou Shiyi.
In terms of absolute strength, even if it was ugly, it was not impossible for him to escape Lou Shiyi’s pursuit. If he wanted to win without reversal, his chances of victory would be slim.
Besides, he didn’t want to miss the liveliness of Jade Pillar Peak. It was really good to be able to temporarily stop fighting with Lou Yiyi.
Once three months passed, he would leave and not return to Canglan until he broke through his physical barrier. At that time, who cared if Lou Shiyi was alive or dead?
Lou Shiyi struggled to the extreme in his heart, wishing he could tear this brat to pieces and devour his flesh and bones, but this matter was completely messed up by them.
If he gritted his teeth and didn’t agree to postpone the duel, he didn’t know how Chen Xun would interfere with it, but at the same time, he would also make Su Fanglong and the others unhappy.
More importantly, he didn’t know how to tell his master, Qing Yangzi, about so many things that had happened.
“Shi Yi will obey Elder Fang Long’s words.” Lou Shiyi wished he could dig a hole and bury himself in it.
Lou Yiyi agreed to postpone the duel. Hearing this, Lou Yao subconsciously grasped the Nine Tribulations Sunset Sword in his hand, causing his joints to snap.
They were also unfairly accused of this matter. They suspected that someone was behind Chen Xun and told Master Su Fuchen about this matter.
Finally, Master Su Fuchen, Su Fanglong, and the others were worried that the secret of Jade Pillar Peak would leak out. They insisted on investigating this matter, which was why the situation had turned out like this. Who would have thought that Ghost Faction would have to bear the blame in the end?
Lou Yao also felt wronged when he thought about it, but he didn’t dare to complain about his master, Su Fuchen, Su Fanglong, and the others. However, looking at Chen Xun’s proud face, he couldn’t help but be angry.
Seeing that Lou Yao’s expression was uncertain, and his eyes were filled with resentment, Chen Xun frowned and asked, “What, Lou Yao, do you have anything else to say? I’ll call off the battle with Lou Shiyi for the time being, but you’ve done everything you can to set me up today, don’t you forget about it now?”
“You!” Lou Yao immediately pulled out the Nine Tribulations Sunset Remnant Sword and chopped the scrap into real scraps.
“Enough! Go back!” Su Fuchen’s face was gloomy as he berated Lou Yao sternly. He turned around and turned into a flowing shadow, leaving first.
Hearing Master’s reprimand, Lou Yao’s hands and feet became weak from fear. Chen Xun had caused Master to lose all face today, but he didn’t expect Master to actually vent his anger on them.
Lou Yao didn’t dare to waste any more words. He bid farewell to Lou Li and Lou Shiyi and chased after Yu Zhu Peak with the flowing shadow left behind by Master Su Fuchen in the sky.
Su Quan had no intention of staying behind to escort the Phoenix Blood Wood back to the camp. He coldly glanced at Chen Xun and left without saying anything. Lou Li, Lou Shiyi, and the others didn’t have the face to stay behind. They bid farewell to Elder Su Fanglong and the others and left on their own.
Su Fuchen and Su Quan were both resentful, but so many Phoenix Blood Wood had to be transported back to the camp. Apart from thousands of rogue cultivators, they also had to be on guard against Xuanhan Sect’s bad intentions when they received the news. Su Fanglong, Su Lingyin, and the others could not just leave.
**************************
Although the Academy did not make any preparations, Chen Xun had brought Tie Xintong, Gu Jianfeng, Zong Ya, and the others over. There were quite a few camels and horses, and they didn’t lack the strength to transport the Phoenix Blood Wood.
More than a dozen Phoenix Blood Woods took a detour from the west side of Jade Pillar Peak and returned thousands of kilometers to the campsite of the Academy. This caused quite a lot of people to be jealous, but with Su Fanglong, Su Lingyin, Su Qingfeng and the others escorting them, who wouldn’t open their eyes to look for trouble?
Even the Profound Frost Sect only sent their disciples over to greet them after learning the news, wondering if they could exchange for the two Phoenix Blood Woods.
Three days later, Chen Xun and the others returned to the Learning Academy camp south of Jade Pillar Peak and stopped. Su Qingfeng continued to escort the Phoenix Blood Wood back to Canglan.
Su Fanglong, Su Lingyin, Su Fuchen, and the others continued to stay in the camp.
Madam Su also didn’t have the face to take over this batch of Phoenix Blood Wood, but she was afraid that Chen Xun wouldn’t know what was good for him and would randomly bid for it.
The day after Chen Xun and the others returned to the camp, Zuoqiu ran over to pay them a visit.
Through Zuoqiu, Chen Xun roughly knew that they could get eighty thousand talismans worth of armor pills and talismans from Canglan College.
This batch of Phoenix Blood Wood was definitely worth more than 80,000 talismans if they were to be sold in Huayang Square or Yunzhou State, but Chen Xun wasn’t dissatisfied with anything.
If it weren’t for Su Fanglong, Su Lingyin, Su Qingfeng, and the others escorting them, even if they were able to retrieve the Phoenix Blood Wood from the bottom of the pond, they wouldn’t have been able to safely transport it all the way to Azure Water City for sale.
Even if Chen Xun could secretly transport the Phoenix Blood Wood back to the Black Python with the Void Origin Pearl, so what?
Ordinary men were innocent, and Huai Bi was guilty. Once the news leaked out, it would be a great calamity.
Right now, there were four Phoenix Blood Wood stalks in the Void Origin Pearl that were intact and had grown longer. Chen Xun didn’t dare to let anyone know about them, much less sell them.
To Chen Xun, throwing this batch of damaged Phoenix Blood Wood to the Azure Water College at a wholesale price was an acceptable outcome.
