That idiot from the Sword Sect turned out to be a lucky charm.

Lin Zhifeng said, "Uncle, you see, the Demon Realm probably won't let this go easily. In the near future, there will definitely be battles between our cultivation world and the Demon Realm. Therefore, this Exorcism Pill will probably be a very scarce and sought-after medicine."

"The major sects, concerned for the safety of their disciples, shouldn't be stingy with the cost of medicine. In the spirit of saving lives, adding fifty percent to the cost price as a token of our concern shouldn't be too much, right?"

Storm said, "It's not excessive. I think that apart from the magic crystal core being a little hard to obtain, the other medicinal materials in that pill formula are not too precious. Even with a 50% markup, the price won't be too outrageous. It's already very reasonable."

Lin Zhifeng said, "I wonder if Uncle would be willing to take on this business? I'll contribute the pill formula as a technical investment; Uncle will be responsible for preparing the raw materials, finding alchemists to refine the pills, and selling the exorcism pills. We'll split the profits 50/50. What do you think, Uncle?"

Feng Bao didn't feel that Lin Zhifeng was taking advantage of him; on the contrary, he was giving him a benefit.

Once the exorcism pill is released, its sales will undoubtedly be phenomenal. This will be a long-term and enormous source of revenue.

However, Feng Bao couldn't quite understand why Lin Zhifeng would choose to cooperate with his uncle, who was not related to him by blood, instead of his own sect.

He shared his doubts with Lin Zhifeng. Lin Zhifeng replied, "This time, it was our Sword Sect disciples who discovered the Demon Realm rift while on a mission; it was also the news we relayed back; afterwards, the Sword Sect summoned all the major sects to seal it, and then the major sects were attacked by the Demon Realm."

"Although we are upright and honest, it is hard to guarantee that some sects will not suffer heavy losses and blame the Sword Sect for all the mistakes."

"If our Sword Sect were to produce an Exorcism Pill, a elixir with remarkable effects against demonic energy entering the body, some might suspect that we are colluding with the Demon Realm to harm the entire cultivation world. If rumors spread, our Sword Sect's reputation would be damaged. How can I be so concerned with making money that I cause such a huge problem for the Sword Sect?"

Feng Bao said, "So, you're absolving the Sword Sect of any blame and leaving your uncle to take the fall?"

Lin Zhifeng was unusually a little embarrassed and explained, "Uncle, you've misunderstood! That's exactly what I was about to say."

Storm didn't speak, but closed his eyes to signal him to continue.

Lin Zhifeng said, "The entire cultivation world knows that the Heavenly Sword Sect and the Sword Sect are at odds, so no one will contact the Sword Sect when my uncle sells the Exorcism Pills. That's the first point."

"As for the second point, I don't want anyone else to know that I obtained this pill formula. My cultivation level is currently low, and having these secrets on my person is a dangerous factor for me. Who knows if someone might have malicious intentions and kidnap me to torture me for more profit? Human hearts are always unpredictable, and I dare not gamble with them. Of course, I trust my uncle completely, and he definitely won't do anything to me. Besides, my uncle might not even be interested in what I have."

"Thirdly, when I partner with my uncle, he'll never let me suffer a loss. But when I partner with a sect, I can't be so calculating with them, can I?"

"Is there anything else?" Storm asked.

"Furthermore, I believe my uncle is the most capable. Having him handle this deal would definitely yield greater profits than having the Sword Sect do it. Just look at how quickly he transformed the Heavenly Sword Sect into a first-rate sect; that shows his abilities are unmatched..."

"Alright, stop flattering me. I promise you." Storm interrupted his sycophantic speech.

Although that's what he said, he still felt quite pleased. He wondered who his nephew took after; he had such a smooth tongue, and he spoke so well.

Lin Zhifeng was very happy to see that he had agreed.

He kept some of the remaining exorcism pills for himself as a precaution, and handed the rest to Feng Bao: "Uncle, I kept some for myself, and you can have the rest. You should quickly find your sect's alchemist to study them and start refining them as soon as possible. There's another matter; other sects must also be worried about their disciples being infected. Uncle, send some of these exorcism pills to them first. Firstly, it will earn us goodwill and a good reputation; secondly, it will be a good advertisement for our exorcism pills, making it easier to start selling them later."

Storm's lips curled up: "You just said I was exceptionally capable, but I think you're not bad either. Given time, even your uncle won't be a match for you."

Lin Zhifeng boasted shamelessly, "A nephew resembles his uncle, right? If the uncle is powerful, the nephew must be just as good as you, hahaha..."

The uncle and nephew decided on a big business deal while chatting and laughing. Later, they made a fortune because of the exorcism pill, but that's another story.

Now that Lin Zhifeng had settled the matter of the exorcism pill, he didn't intend to linger. He got up to take his leave, intending to return to the Sword Sect immediately.

Before leaving, Storm gave him a communication tool shaped like a jade pendant.

Storm said, "Take this. If you need to contact your uncle, just infuse it with spiritual power to activate it. That way you can contact me without having to travel all that way." After saying that, he added, "In the future, when you go out to gain experience, if you encounter any danger, you can also use it to contact me, and I will come to your rescue immediately."

Lin Zhifeng was overjoyed. This was equivalent to having a bodyguard at the Refinement Realm who was always available! From now on, when he went out to have fun, he would have an extra layer of security.

Lin Zhifeng immediately tied the jade pendant to his belt, repeatedly expressing his gratitude: "Thank you so much, Uncle! You're the best to me, Uncle!"

The storm, too lazy to listen to his rambling, waved him away.

Lin Zhifeng left the Heavenly Sword Sect and embarked on his journey back to the Sword Sect. This time, he wasn't in a hurry and flew at a normal speed.

Back at the sect, the Ninth Elder was waiting to "interrogate" him. So he had to think carefully about how to explain things to the Ninth Elder along the way.

Back then, near the rift, he never imagined that returning to the sect would lead to the Demon Realm attacking the Sword Sect. The excuse he gave at the time was actually quite perfect; it wouldn't have been a problem fooling the Ninth Elder.

Later, when he saw that the Sword Sect disciples were corrupted by demonic energy, he didn't have time to think much and upgraded the shop and alchemy system, and took out a lot of exorcism pills to save people.

That excuse he gave to Elder Jiu won't work. Elder Jiu can easily find out he's lying with just a little inquiry.

Now he's partnered with his uncle to resell exorcism pills, even though he only provides the formula. But when they start selling them on a large scale, the Sword Sect, especially the Ninth Elder, definitely won't be able to keep it a secret.

It seems that we can only use one version, which is that my master actually gave me the inheritance of alchemy.

We'll give the Ninth Elder a copy of the formula later so he can study it. Anyway, the Sword Sect won't use the Exorcism Pill to make money in order to avoid suspicion.

Having made up his mind, Lin Zhifeng sped up and flew towards the Sword Sect.
