Chapter 107 The Sect Has Prospered

The Green Pearl Crimson Grass only grows once a year, and many cultivators are eyeing it, most of whom are low-level rogue cultivators.

This is because the "grapes" of the green pearl grass contain toxins. If the outer skin is damaged, the juice inside will sting and burn when it comes into contact with the skin.

Even the slightest carelessness in touching it can cause pain for ten days to half a month!

The harvesting process is arduous and requires great care. Even cultivators find it somewhat strenuous. Therefore, apart from lower-level cultivators who need it to earn a living, cultivators with a choice will not consider it.

For the Mu brothers, who need to support an entire sect, it doesn't matter how tiring or arduous it is; as long as they can earn money and maintain their sect, it's all worth it.

As a result, they were double-crossed.

Some people want to gain without working, neither wanting to endure the hardship of picking grass nor wanting to reap the fruits of others' labor. So they secretly hide to the side, and when others have picked enough, they step forward to assassinate them, attempting to kill them and steal their treasure.

The Mu brothers encountered such a small team, but they gritted their teeth and refused to compromise, eventually turning the tables and killing their opponents. However, they themselves were also injured by the poison on the enemy's swords.

"Nonsense! Nothing is more important than life!" Liu Feng was both distressed and angry. "If you all lose your lives, won't that thing still belong to someone else?"

"Uncle-Master, don't worry, this poison won't kill you. Xuechu and I know what we're doing." Mu Xuechu smiled, revealing her teeth. "Moreover, this trip was very worthwhile. We not only got some Green Pearl Crimson Grass, but also the Qiankun Bags of those three people. In addition, we also got some other things during this period. Here, these are them."

He pointed to something on the table, looking like he was waiting for praise.

He and Xue returned with a full load, which will surely greatly alleviate the sect's urgent needs.

The sect still owes some money, for example, to Zheng Cheng. Those people must be coming to collect debts frequently, so the lives of the senior uncles and sisters must be very difficult.

Now that they've returned with their harvest, everyone must be overjoyed!
But after looking at everyone's expressions, the Mu brothers realized... things seemed to be a little different from what they had thought.

The martial uncles and the sect leader only felt heartache and guilt, their expressions complex, but they couldn't see much excitement or joy.

Alas, those two poor senior brothers, they must have suffered so much these past years.

They should have come back sooner so they could have enjoyed the good life with us sooner.

[The two of them rushed back without even curing the poison from the Hundred Months of Filth, clearly unwilling to spend money on an antidote and wanting to tough it out. They really went to great lengths.]

Like everyone else in her sect, Mo Jiuwei felt sorry for her two senior brothers.

This poison is called Hundred Moons Filth. It is not fatal, but when you are first poisoned, you will experience intense pain for a moment, which can temporarily disable your fighting ability.

After that brief period of intense pain, the pain continued every night, though it was somewhat better during the day.

If you spend money to buy elixirs to detoxify, the poison will be cured immediately. But if you don't want to spend money, that's fine too; just endure it for a hundred days, and the poison will resolve itself.

However, this requires enduring a hundred nights of suffering, which is not something an ordinary person can do.

Mo Jiuwei could tell at a glance that these two brothers had rushed to the sect despite being poisoned. They had so many opportunities along the way, but they didn't buy any pills to relieve their pain. This clearly showed that they were unwilling to spend money to cure the poison!
All of this was done so that the other fellow disciples could have a better life.

Mu Xuechu and Mu Xuequ had no time to feel ashamed that their feelings had been exposed; only one thought filled their minds—

That way they can start enjoying the good food and drinks with us sooner!

The two were taken aback and looked at Mo Jiuwei, as if they doubted whether they had misheard.

Eating and drinking the finest food?

who? ?

Furthermore, although they had heard that their junior sister was powerful, they did not expect her to be this powerful. Her eyes were so clear and bright, as if nothing in the world could be hidden from her!
If Liu Feng and the others found out about this idea, they would probably say—

Nothing and no one in this world can be hidden from Jiuwei, except us!

"Well, Xue Chu Xue Qu, actually a lot happened while you were away, but we're doing pretty well now," Liu Feng said.

“That’s right, what I told you through telepathy is true.” Xu Yihan nodded. Everyone nodded in agreement.

"How is this possible... Tell me what exactly happened!" The two looked at each other, still completely bewildered, and could only urge each other to ask.

In response, people said:

seeing is believing!

Everyone took out everything they had acquired over the past few days from their storage bags, and there wasn't enough room on the table, so much of it ended up on the ground.

There are a huge variety of crystals, magical artifacts, pills, materials, robes, and talismans—so many that it's almost impossible to see them all!

This made the Mu brothers feel dizzy.

There are too many things that are hard to understand at a glance; all they know is that there are many things here, and they are very valuable!

At the same time, a very strong and unique fragrance wafted over, making the two of them involuntarily sniff and finally fix their gaze on one spot.

"What is this?" they asked, pointing to the muddy things on the ground.

【Ah, that's a fragrant mushroom, it smells amazing!】

[Slurp, I want some mushroom soup.]

Mo Jiuwei couldn't help but drool.

Chen Lan suppressed a laugh and wiped away her drool. "Jiuwei wants to eat it? Then let's use it to add to the dishes tonight, how about it?"

"Hmph!" Mo Jiuwei's response was remarkably loud.

They were talking to each other, while the Mu brothers were frozen in shock.

They didn't recognize the name "Tianxianxiangmo" (天涎香蘑菇), but they had heard of it!
These kinds of treasures are so rare that most people would struggle to even get one, yet they have a whole bunch of them!
The two men stared wide-eyed and swallowed hard. "This... so much? Did you rob an entire family? Where did you get all this?"

They heard from the sect leader that the sect was doing well and had acquired many good things, and that he wanted them to come back quickly.

But I never expected there would be so many good things!

Even the most powerful families wouldn't underestimate this wealth, and the pile of Heavenly Saliva Mushrooms on the ground that can help with breakthroughs is something everyone would covet!

The sect has really prospered!

"By the way, there's also this."

After thinking for a moment, Chen Lan took out the Immortal Abode as well.

The Mu brothers were almost unable to breathe.

"This, what is this?"

"What did I see?"

Haha, they must be so happy.

[Oh dear, it's getting dark! They need to hurry and buy antidotes, or the pain will start again!]

Mo Jiuwei suddenly thought of something.

Liu Feng also stopped smiling. "It's getting late. You guys go buy the medicine first. We can talk about other things in detail when you get back."
