Am I not a nascent saint demon cultivator?

"The branch president is like this..."

Facing the gazes of the group of senior executives from the Muyun Chamber of Commerce branch, Xu Yun showed no stage fright and delivered his prepared remarks in an orderly manner.

This included details about the flaws in the Azure Water Alliance cultivator's techniques and the circumstances of the battle, leaving the higher-ups of the Twilight Cloud Chamber of Commerce branch deep in thought.

"I see. Thank you for your hard work this time, Xu Yun."

After Xu Yun recounted everything, Wen Xuanqi sat in the main seat, tapping the armrest, and said in a deep voice, "The information you provided is crucial. We will interrogate that Azure Water Alliance cultivator thoroughly. If the situation is true, you will be richly rewarded. A promise is a promise!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Wen Xuanqi took a closer look at Xu Yun. He had already learned about this Class C Elder during the attack on Tianhe Tower.

Although Wen Xinlan said that this person played a huge role in that incident, he only thought it was good luck.

Later, it was revealed that this person had severed ties with his sworn brother, which made him have no good feelings towards Xu Yun.

This time, however, he did not expect that this person would bring him such important information. If the other party's statement was true, the Azure Water Alliance really did disguise themselves as demonic cultivators and plunder the goods of their Twilight Cloud Merchant Guild.

Then, the Muyun Chamber of Commerce will be able to use this as leverage to force the Biyue Alliance to relinquish a lot of benefits, making them feel the pinch, while also gaining considerable credit themselves.

"Thank you, branch president. I'll take my leave now."

Xu Yun was unaware of the branch president's thoughts. He simply bowed to the branch's senior members and then slowly left.

In any case, the matter of the Azure Water Alliance is already a done deal. As long as we investigate the cultivator we captured, we can detect the aura of his cultivation technique that is mixed with demonic energy.

At that time, Xu Yun will likely receive a considerable reward.

"How is Fellow Daoist Xu?"

As soon as he stepped outside, Wen Xinlan, who had been waiting for him, immediately ran over and asked, "What did the branch leadership say?"

"If you believe my story, then you should thoroughly investigate and interrogate that cultivator from the Azure Water Alliance."

Xu Yun truthfully recounted the previous events without concealing anything.

Upon hearing this, Wen Xinlan's face lit up with joy. "It seems that the branch president also believes that this was the work of the Azure Water Alliance. This is just a formality."

As a member of the Wen family of Ruohe, and with Wen Xinlan's previous merit in capturing Liu Bailin, she naturally had some contact with Wen Xuanqi.

In her view, Wen Xuanqi must have been confident in his actions and was certain of the Azure Water Alliance's intentions.

In this way, there might actually be a chance to salvage this failed mission.

"That would be perfect." Xu Yun nodded slightly.

"Haha, I'd like to offer my congratulations to Fellow Daoist Xu in advance."

Just then, Wen Xinlan bowed and smiled sweetly, saying, "As the great contributor to capturing the Biyue Alliance cultivators and discovering their conspiracy, you will surely receive many rewards."

At this point, Wen Xinlan couldn't help but feel envious. If she had discovered the conspiracy of the Azure Water Alliance, it would have been of great help to her future.

They might even be able to use this opportunity to be promoted directly to a higher position within the clan, which would greatly enhance their resource supply and status.

"Thank you for your kind words, Manager Wen."

Xu Yun smiled slightly. Although he had gained a lot this time, he didn't mind getting more benefits.

"Brother Xu!"

Just then, a beautiful figure in a white dress rushed over, her gentle and serene face streaked with tears and joy, and her arms instinctively embraced Xu Yun.

Smelling the delicate fragrance and feeling the warmth on his chest, Xu Yun froze on the spot, lowering his eyes in bewilderment.

Then he saw Wen Lingyu, whom he hadn't seen for a while, hugging him tightly, with genuine relief and lingering fear, "It's good that you're alright, it's good that you're alright."

"This... Sister Wen..."

This was the first time Xu Yun had experienced something like this, and he didn't know what to do.

Just then, another familiar figure came into view; it was none other than his sworn brother, Lin Zuibai.

His face was also filled with joy and excitement. When he saw Wen Lingyu's loss of composure, he couldn't help but tease her, "Haha, Brother Xu, your sister Wen has been worried about your safety these past few days, even losing sleep over it. It's understandable that she would act like this."

"Brother, please don't make fun of me."

Wen Lingyu wiped her eyes, slowly pulled away from Xu Yun's embrace, placed her hands on his shoulders, carefully examined his entire body, and breathed a sigh of relief. "Don't let your brother's carefree attitude fool you, he's actually been searching for you all this time. If we still can't find you, we're even planning to go out and search for you ourselves."

After Xiao Menglin's tragic encounter with demonic cultivators, Wen Lingyu was very worried that Xu Yun might follow in her footsteps.

Therefore, she was exhausted and fearful during this period, since she only had two sworn friends she could be close to and trust.

Fortunately, Xu Yun returned safely; otherwise, Wen Lingyu and Lin Zuibai would have definitely gone out to find him, dead or alive.

"I am truly ashamed to have caused you all so much worry during this time."

Upon hearing this, Xu Yun wanted to bow deeply, but Lin Zuibai quickly stopped him.

He smiled slightly and said with emotion, "We are sworn brothers, so this is only right. You don't need to go through any formalities; it's too much of a formality."

"By the way, I must also thank Manager Wen for informing us of Brother Xu's safe return in time. I am deeply grateful." Lin Zuibai said, bowing to Wen Xinlan.

Upon seeing this, Wen Lingyu bowed somewhat embarrassedly, "I was a bit rude before, please forgive me, Manager Wen."

What she was referring to was that, because Xu Yun had not returned, Wen Lingyu had approached Wen Xinlan to demand an explanation, which led to some unpleasantness between them.

"Please, both of you, don't do this. I haven't done anything useful, and I can't accept this courtesy."

Upon seeing this, Wen Xinlan quickly stopped the two from bowing, and at the same time, she couldn't help but feel moved by their sworn brotherhood, which was truly rare in the current cultivation world.

Afterwards, Xu Yun chatted with the three of them while being led to his cave dwelling. After bidding farewell to everyone and bowing, he went directly inside.

"call......"

Xu Yun took a deep breath, and his disheveled appearance and exhaustion vanished, replaced by excitement and anticipation. He immediately sat down on a futon.

With a thought, he summoned the light screen and retrieved the previous rewards from inside.

The next moment, ripples appeared on the light screen, and a jade bottle landed in Xu Yun's palm. He immediately and impatiently uncorked the bottle.

Buzz!

As Xu Yun turned the jade bottle upside down, a pill that felt like jade and had a bluish-black hue fell into his palm.

Xu Yun took a closer look and saw three interwoven and connected pill patterns on it, as if they were naturally formed, and they exuded a rich pill fragrance. Just smelling it made his mind clear and his spiritual sense active.

It was none other than the premium Lingqing Pill!
