Hunyuan Immortal Sect

Chapter 86: Visiting Yang's Mansion Again
"There's no wanted poster for Apples in Far East City. I asked around with the merchants in the market, and I haven't heard of any other cities issuing wanted posters."

After hearing this, Song Xian felt relieved and nodded, saying, "Perhaps Nuha doesn't care too much about this little escapee. After all, he only has Qi Refining cultivation and can't cause any trouble. Or perhaps Adolf Hussein showed some leniency and didn't want to exterminate all of his descendants."

"Anyway, since there's no wanted poster issued on the Muhe Grassland, there's no need to be paranoid. A potential ally is always better than an enemy. Let's go check on Apples later; I think his injuries are almost healed."

What he didn't know was that in order to avoid punishment, the people who were chasing Aples returned to report to Noah, pretending that they had completed the mission, and his body was burned to ashes by the power of fire.

Adolf Hussein did not intend to execute Jin Mingle Hussein and his family at first, but he sent people to capture him and investigate in anger.

Unexpectedly, Jin Mingle Hussein killed the captured envoy out of fear, and fell into Nuha's trap and was wiped out.

After hearing this letter, Adolf Hussein was filled with anger and pity, and naturally he would not pursue the matter any further for a descendant of his family whose body had never been found.

The two left the market town and boarded a flying magic tool to the residence of Apples. There was only a maid from Zhong Wenyuan's house serving them. When she saw the two of them coming, she hurried to greet them.

Song Xian sent her away from the room to avoid overhearing the conversation. When she entered the room, she saw that Apples had sat up with his upper body straight.

"I heard that fellow Taoist's injuries have recovered well, so we came to see him today." Song Xian said with a smile.

During this period, he learned the Mukh Steppe language with Karissa every evening and had made great progress. Although he was not fluent, he could communicate at a basic level.

"Thank you for your concern, Fellow Daoist Song. I'm fine. I'm feeling much better now. I think I'll be able to move around on my own in a while."

"Fellow Daoist, what are your plans now that you have recovered from your injury? If there is anything our sect can help with, please feel free to ask."

Apples had a blank expression on his face. “Thank you for your kindness, Master Song. I do have something I’d like to trouble you with.”

"Please tell me, fellow Daoist. As long as it is within the capabilities of our sect, we will not refuse."

"I want to know what the situation is like in the Eastern Region right now. I hope Sect Leader Song can send someone to inquire about it. After I recover from my injuries, I still want to return to the Eastern Region. I just don't know what the situation is like and whether there is a wanted warrant for me in Far East City."

"We've already sent people to investigate, and there are no wanted posters for you in either Far East City or other nearby cities. However, we can't rule out the possibility that they may be lax on the outside but tight on the inside. Perhaps Nuha has already sent people to investigate secretly. I suggest you don't return to Muhe Grassland for the time being; it's still too dangerous. It would be much better to wait a while before going."

Apples' eyes flickered, but he said nothing.

"There's something I don't know if I should say."

"Fellow Daoist Song, please speak."

"It would be extremely dangerous for you to rashly return to the Muhe grassland now. Once you fall into Nuha's hands, you will surely die. It is also not very convenient for you to travel alone in a foreign country like Qin. If you don't mind, why not stay in our sect for a while?" Song Xian said.

This was the main purpose of his visit today, he wanted to keep this rare treasure, and it would be best if he could be accepted into the sect.

"Thank you for your kindness, Master Song. I will proceed with caution. I will remember your kindness and will repay you when I have the chance."

After hearing what he said, Song Xian knew that he was determined to leave, and it was inconvenient to try to keep him. After all, everyone has their own ambitions. He is a direct descendant of the lord of the Eastern Region of Muhe Grassland. Even if he is now in dire straits, he is unwilling to be content with a small sect like Hunyuan Sect. This is human nature.

"Well then! I hope you will be more careful. If you have any difficulties or needs in the future, you can come to our sect."

After chatting for a while, Song Xian left.

.........

In Laogu Peak, in the sect hall, everyone gathered together. There was a new face inside, Feng Yan. Her injuries had healed and she could move around on her own.

"Today, our sect has a new disciple joining. Everyone has already met, so I won't introduce him in detail. Welcome Junior Sister Feng Yan to join our sect and become a member of the Hunyuan Sect."

During the time Feng Yan was recuperating from her injuries, she lived in Laogufeng. She had met several people and had gained a good understanding of the Hunyuan Sect.

On that day, when Song Xian brought the people of Shizhai Village to Laogufeng, everything had been agreed upon, and she also volunteered to join the Hunyuan Sect.

Zhong Wenyuan immediately said, "Welcome Junior Sister Feng. Our sect is in need of a female cultivator like Junior Sister Feng who is eloquent and good at interacting with others. I believe that having Junior Sister Feng join us will bring great benefits to the development of our Jade Fragrance Pill."

Feng Yan nodded without saying anything more. After this incident, she looked calmer than before.

When Song Xian talked to her about joining the Hunyuan Sect, she agreed without any hesitation.

To her, Song Xian was the benefactor who had saved her life and the village. Whether out of gratitude or seeking refuge, she had no reason to refuse. Song Xian said, "Junior Sister Feng Yan, you already know the situation within the sect, so I won't elaborate. From now on, you will be primarily responsible for the sales of the Jade Fragrance Pill."

"You have all the rights. No matter where you go, what you do, who you sell to, or whether you can raise or lower prices, you can decide for yourself. This includes forming a team. If you find someone you like, you can recruit them into your team. If they are cultivators, you can even promise to let them join the sect and receive the sect's salary and other benefits."

"Your team will take half of the profits from the Yuxiang Pills sold. In a word, I only care about the results, not the process."

"If any of you brothers would like to join this team, you can do so now."

"Let me be clear, no matter who wants to join, I will allow them, but only for now. If the Jade Fragrance Pills sell well in the future and Junior Sister Feng gets a few extra spirit stones, and becomes dissatisfied and complains that it's unfair, I won't tolerate it."

"The Jade Fragrance Pill is a top priority for the development of our sect, and the key lies in the promotion and sale of the pill. Everyone knows that the sales performance of the Jade Fragrance Pill has not been ideal recently."

"Therefore, we need to expend a great deal of energy to accomplish this. If this can be accomplished, our sect will be able to gain a firm foothold. Therefore, the burden on Junior Sister Feng is extremely important. This is why I will take half of the profits from the Jade Fragrance Pill and give it to the sales team."

"We can't let one person take all the benefits. We can't just practice in peace and comfort while expecting to get the same amount of spirit stones as those who work hard to sell the Jade Fragrance Pill."

"Of course, if you don't want to join the sales team now, you can join later. But it depends on the situation at that time. You need the permission of both Junior Sister Feng and me before you can join."

After Song Xian finished speaking, Jiang Zichen took the lead and said, "Master, I want to join."

Song Xian knew that he was an active person who was interested in everything. He was probably bored of staying in the shop these days, so he was not surprised that he was so eager to join the Yuxiangdan sales team.

"Okay, Junior Brother Zichen is one, who else is willing?"

The rest of the people remained silent. They all came from the Qingyun Sect and had long been accustomed to a life of having everything provided for them. In their minds, carrying pills around to sell them to people, like those street vendors, smiling and saying nice things to everyone they met, was a very shameful and humiliating thing.

Besides, the Jade Fragrance Pills are not selling well right now. So far, only 131 pills have been sold. If it weren't for a wealthy man from the Beast Taming Sect who happened to come to the market and bought some on a whim, I'm afraid that not a single one would have been sold now.

"My fellow brothers, don't make a decision in a hurry. You can think about it carefully. If anyone is willing to join, you can come to me today." Song Xian still hoped that more people would join the pill sales team to contribute to this. Seeing that no one said anything, he couldn't force them, so he relaxed the time limit.

After the meeting, everyone got up and left.

The next day, Feng Yan, Song Xian and Jiang Zichen boarded a flying magic tool and left Lao Gufeng for Bianxi City.

.........

In front of the majestic Yang Mansion, Song Xian came down on a magic weapon.

"Who are you?" The big man standing outside the east gate of the mansion stepped forward to stop them.

"I am Song Xian, the headmaster of Hunyuan Sect, and I am here with our disciple Feng Yan to visit fellow Taoist Zeng Rou. Please inform him. Fellow Taoist Zeng Rou has previously asked us to deliver the Yuxiang Pill." As Song Xian spoke, he took out a spirit stone from his sleeve and handed it to the big man.

Everyone in the Yang Mansion is a vampire, he has experienced it long ago. Don't underestimate the servant standing guard outside the door. As the saying goes, it is easy to hide from the King of Hell, but it is difficult to deal with the little ghosts in front of the prime minister's door.

If you don't send him away, he might actually inform you.

Song Xian had been to Yang's house three times before. He was rejected the first time, went into the hall the second time, and finally entered the room to see Yang Zhang the third time, but all three times he entered through the west gate.

The difference between the east and west gates of Yang Mansion is that one is for public use and the other is for private use.

If it is a private matter, people of high status will go through the east gate, while those who do official business on the first and fifteenth days of the lunar month will go through the west gate.

"Please wait a moment, two immortal masters." The big man took the spirit stone, put on a smile on his face, and went inside. After waiting for a long time, he saw a middle-aged woman dressed in silk coming.

"Are you here to deliver the Jade Fragrance Pill?"

"Yes."

"Come with me!" The two men then followed her into the inner room, and Song Xian took out three spirit stones and handed them to her according to the old rules.

The woman calmly took the spirit stone and said softly, "The master and the mistress are together, so be careful and don't say anything you shouldn't."

Song Xian was a little surprised to hear this. He didn't expect to meet Yang Jinzhang this time.
