The female supporting character in the cultivation world only wants to grow flowers and become stron

Lin Yitang raised an eyebrow. Sure enough, it was because of the cold poison!

The disciple from Tianji Pavilion said, "We bought the Icethorn Poison to communicate with you. Although we have a bottle of the poison, as you know, a mere bottle is not worth our attention. That's why we offered such a high price, just hoping to cooperate with you, nothing more."

Lin Yitang frowned and asked, "So how do you intend to cooperate with me? Do you think I have other venom on me, or excess cold poison that you can sell to me?"

However, the Tianji Pavilion cultivator replied in an androgynous voice, "No, what we want is the Ice Thorn Poison Spider on your body."

Upon hearing this, Lin Yitang's pupils contracted. The Heavenly Mystery Pavilion had actually guessed that she possessed the Ice Thorn Cold Poison!

This is not surprising, in fact, Lin Yitang had already prepared for the possibility of the Ice Thorn Poison Spider being discovered.

However, by sheer coincidence, they were targeted by the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion...

Lin Yitang pondered for a moment, but did not intend to deny it, saying, "Then you will be disappointed. I will not sell the Ice Thorn Poison Spider easily, no matter how high your offer is."

Tianji Pavilion said, "We know you won't sell the Icethorn Poison Spider without you saying it. After all, the source of the venom is far more valuable than the venom itself."

"What we want is the future ownership of the Icethorn Poison produced by the Icethorn Spider."

Only then did Lin Yitang truly understand the purpose of the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion.

The Heavenly Mystery Pavilion set its sights on the venom produced by the Icethorn Poison Spider, wanting her to become a venom supplier!

This was actually a long-term collaboration, and Lin Yitang was beginning to waver.

Because the Icethorn Poison wouldn't generate any value in her hands, it would have to be sold sooner or later. And to sell it, she would need a good buyer—someone stable and safe who wouldn't rob her, expose her identity, or reveal her whereabouts. Such buyers are rare.

Tianji Pavilion is indeed an excellent candidate.

After thinking for a while, Lin Yitang couldn't think of any reason to refuse them, so she said, "Alright, I agree to your cooperation, but I have one condition."

The Heavenly Secrets Pavilion was overjoyed and asked, "What are the conditions?"

Lin Yitang's expression remained unchanged as she said, "I want the identity of a disciple of the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion."

Upon hearing this, the disciple of Tianji Pavilion immediately replied, "That's easy. Anyone can join Tianji Pavilion, whether you are a rogue cultivator, a member of a family, or a disciple of a major sect. As long as you abide by the rules and complete your tasks on time, you can join Tianji Pavilion. We also conceal each other's identities to avoid conflicts. I will apply for an identity for you, and then you can join."

As he spoke, the disciple of the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion took out a special jade slip, communicated with him for a while, and then looked up and said, "I have successfully applied for your disciple status. The number is 4450. A special jade slip and mask will be delivered to you shortly. Let's discuss the price of Venom first."

Lin Yitang didn't expect to obtain the identity of a disciple of the Heavenly Mystery Pavilion so easily; she thought she would need to reveal her identity.

Upon hearing the offer, her eyes narrowed, and a slight smile appeared on her lips. "Two million? You mean you want to buy these Icethorn Venoms at the auction's reserve price? Do you think I'd agree?"

She knew in her heart that she had to negotiate the price at this point and couldn't just agree to anything.

As expected, the disciples of Tianji Pavilion conceded, saying, "Since you don't agree, we can increase it by 200,000 spirit stones, so that's no longer our bottom price."

Lin Yitang shook her head and said, "No, how about three million spirit stones?"

The Tianji Pavilion disciple laughed and said, "That fellow Daoist raised the price too high. We all know that for a bottle of venom, the price is at most two or three million. Your offer of the highest price all at once is not very friendly to us. We are planning to do long-term transactions, so there is no need for this."

Lin Yitang said, "Alright then, in that case, I'll go and trade with the Hidden Kill Pavilion. After all, you're not the only ones I can trade with. After this auction, you probably know that the Hidden Kill Pavilion also wants to cooperate with me. Since you don't agree, the Hidden Kill Pavilion might not refuse."

Seeing that Lin Yitang was really getting up to leave, the disciples of Tianji Pavilion panicked.

He quickly replied, "Two million eight hundred thousand! Two million eight hundred thousand should be enough, right? It's neither the bottom price nor the top price. This is already our biggest concession, and we can't offer any more."

Lin Yitang then turned around, smiled, and said, "Okay, let's sign the contract."

After saying that, the disciple of Tianji Pavilion took out a contract paper and said, "This is a special paper made by our Tianji Pavilion. It can carry the power of the Heavenly Dao Contract. You can use this paper to form a contract with Tianji Pavilion itself."

Lin Yitang nodded, bit her finger, and dripped a drop of blood into the contract.

The contract is now complete.

Seeing the Tianji Pavilion disciple place the paper into the teleportation box, Lin Yitang couldn't help but think to herself, "The Tianji Pavilion really has a lot of good stuff. There's paper that can hold contracts, and a teleportation box. These two items cost a fortune to release, so it seems the Tianji Pavilion can still make a profit."

If I were to join the Heavenly Secrets Pavilion, I'm sure I could earn quite a bit.

Soon, Lin Yitang's communication jade slip and mask were transmitted over.

The Tianji Pavilion disciple took the item out of the teleportation box and handed it to Lin Yitang, saying, "This is your personal communication jade slip. You can use this jade slip to receive and issue tasks, and you can also communicate with the Tianji Pavilion disciples of the next higher level. Remember to wear a mask when doing tasks."

Lin Yitang nodded again, thinking that she was familiar with this model, which was similar to the Anti-Lin Alliance, only more advanced and with a wider scope.

The talks between the two sides then concluded.

Lin Yitang's Icethorn Poison Spider produces venom about once a month. When that happens, just find a nearby Tianji Pavilion stronghold to teleport to.

The Tianji Pavilion disciple vanished from the room in a flash, leaving only an unconscious Hehuan Sect disciple in the same spot.

The Hehuan Sect disciple woke up, holding his head and shaking it, saying with a confused expression, "Huh, did I faint for a moment?"

Lin Yitang said calmly, "No. You were just startled by the aura I accidentally released. I'm sorry I didn't conceal my aura properly and frightened you."

The Hehuan Sect disciple had fully regained consciousness and, upon hearing this, quickly waved his hand and said, "It's alright. I was just momentarily dazed. There's nothing to worry about. Senior, there's no need to blame yourself."

After saying that, she took out a storage bag and said, "Senior, this is the share of your auction proceeds. Please accept it."

Lin Yitang took the storage bag, counted the number of spirit stones inside—a total of nine high-grade spirit stones, plus dozens of mid-grade spirit stones—and after confirming that everything was correct, went to the next room to trade the items she had won at the auction.

She's going to get the Earth Spirit.
