Chapter 584: Chapter 25 Disciple_3

Upon seeing Wang Ba, a smile broke on his face.

“How could I refuse my senior brother’s commands?” he said without hesitation. “Do you need any spirit chicken essence?”

“Indeed, I still have more than 4,000 portions of class II spirit chicken essence, could you digest that much?”

Although Wang Ba was eager, he did not show it on his face.

“That much?”

Even though Gu Wen had heard from the Sound Transmission Talisman that Wang Ba would offer lots of spirit chicken essence, he never thought it would be this much.

He frowned slightly.

“More than 4,000 portions… That’s more than 4,000 merit points, that’s not small at all!”

A Golden Core Deacon makes only about 30 merit points per year. Even with some hidden perks from their rank, they would barely make around 50 to 60 points a year.

Furthermore, during critical training moments, retreats were necessary and they could only take the minimal salary.

Therefore, not all Golden Cores can afford to splurge 4,000 merit point all at once.

A more prominent issue was the risk. If they bought all that spirit chicken essence and failed to sell it, that would be quite the issue.

Gu Wen shared a glance with the beautiful lady beside him and shook his head.

“It might be difficult to come up with that much all at once.”

Well-prepared for such a response, Wang Ba showed a disappointed face.

“I see. I was planning to present this spirit food recipe to the Sect soon. If it gets taken and regulated by the Spirit Food Department, I might not be able to sell it on my own.”

If the recipe was given to the Sect and chosen by the Spirit Food Department to regulate, then the recipe would become Sect’s asset. He could still use it for personal needs but not for individual selling.

So, the rewards from the Sect could be seen as a form of buyout.

Upon hearing this, both Gu Wen and the beautiful lady beside him were stunned and their faces turned grim.

Does this mean that they would lose a method of gaining merit if they can’t buy the spirit chicken essence from him?

For the two, who had just tasted the sweetness of their gains, this was too tough to accept.

The normally cold and composed lady even showed a hint of fluctuation on her face.

After some hesitation, Gu Wen said,

“Senior brother, could you give us a moment to discuss this important matter?”

Wang Ba merely nodded noncommittally.

The pair immediately begun whispering amongst themselves.

Wang Ba patiently waited for a while.

Soon enough, Gu Wen seemed to have made up his mind.

“Could you give us two days, senior brother? Four thousand merit points is no small sum, we need to arrange some things.”

Wang Ba nodded. There was still more than a month until Yao Wudi had to leave for the West Sea Country, so they had enough time.

However, just to be safe, he reminded her, “Sister, try to be as quick as possible. The Sect is planning to take action against the cultivators from the three continents overseas, it’s quite an urgent time…”

“I’ll take care of it, brother, don’t worry,” Gu Wen assured him quickly.

Having agreed on the timing, Wang Ba then took off from there.

The next day was yet another busy day.

After returning to Wanfa Peak, he followed Yao Wudi to meet with various peak masters.

These peak masters were mainly Yao Wudi’s contemporaries and juniors. Some had poor relationships with him, and others have good ones.

However, most of them had poor relationships with Yao Wudi.

Most of them gave face begrudgingly when Yao Wudi humbled himself and asked them to give pointers to Wang Ba on his cultivation.

However, some cultivators were not that cooperative.

Like Chi Liequan of Fire Cloud Peak.

He was brash and arrogant, and he didn’t accept Yao Wudi’s apologies and gestures of goodwill.

“You, Yao Wudi, dared to piss over my head, and you have the shame to come ask me for favors?” Chi Liequan firmly refused.

Suppressing the anger in his heart, Yao Wudi still maintained a smile on his face. “Junior brother Chi, I’ve learnt a Fire Style Minor Divine Power when I was outside. Although it can’t be compared with the ‘True Flame Split’ documented in ‘Taiyi True Fire’, but…”

“Ha, do you think you can bribe me with the same things you used for Ling Weizi?” Chi Liequan sneered, “I’ll tell you this. Not even the Sect Master could make me teach your disciple!”

On the side, Wang Ba glanced deeply at him.

Chi Liequan, who had noticed his gaze, sneered dismissively. “What? You’re getting ideas? Ha, the youth nowadays are quite bold…”

“Enough!” Yao Wudi’s brow furrowed and the smile slowly disappeared from his face as he looked directly at Chi Liequan.

“Junior Brother Chi, if you hold such a big grudge against me, it would be unsuitable for me to push it, so let’s just leave it.”

“Disciple, let’s go.”

With that, he took Wang Ba and left straightaway.

Watching the retreating figure of Yao Wudi, Chi Liequan sneered, “Just a dying man…”

In the space halfway to Wanfa Peak,

Wang Ba couldn’t help but say, “Master, you don’t have to go through so much trouble for me.”

“That’s not the case.” Yao Wudi waved it off, “This is also my own idea.”

So saying, Yao Wudi sounded regretful.

“I’ve been cultivating for so many years by just going with my instincts. It sounds good when you call it frankness, but if you look at it from another perspective, it might seem like selfishness. Sometimes, it might unintentionally hurt some people…Since I’m leaving, I should say my goodbyes with everyone. A beginning and an end.”

“It’s just a simple apology, I don’t fear that. What I don’t fear even more is Immortal Ascension, why would I fear this? Only the mediocre would feel insulted.”

Upon hearing Yao Wudi’s words, Wang Ba was surprised and gave Yao Wudi a sidelong glance.

“Hm? Are you surprised because your master is different today, like I grew a brain?”
