Chapter 1100: Chapter 434: Returning to Luotian, A Teacher’s Style (Requesting Monthly Tickets)

Several days later.

A large flying boat descended leisurely onto Danxia Peak.

This time, they had gone to congratulate the Ice Castle Budding Cultivator on his ascension to the Golden Core Period, bringing with them a generous amount of gifts.

Upon return, they also brought back many special products from the Ice Castle.

Seeing the numerous special items from Ice Castle being unloaded from the flying boat, everyone knew that the relationship between the Luo Tian Creed and Ice Castle had grown even closer.

Other vassals of Ice Castle did not receive such treatment.

Giving gifts was just that, there were no gifts in return.

Due to Gu Caiyi’s ostentatious actions, the powers near Tianlan grew to respect and befriend the Luo Tian Creed even more.

Actually!

Even without these actions, the situation of the Luo Tian Creed in Tianlan Immortal City had already become very good.

Inside the Luo Tian Main Hall.

A group of senior officials were continuously reporting on the recent affairs of the Luo Tian Creed and the changes around Tianlan.

"Vassal forces of the Flame Alliance, whether they submit to other sects or are continually eradicated, there is no longer a single remnant of the Flame Alliance left in Tianlan Immortal City."

"Strangely, aside from the Sword Pavilion, the other sect properties of the Yu Ding Sword Sect have also left Tianlan Immortal City. Even some vassal families are relocating."

"Now, in Tianlan, the main forces are concentrated within the once Four Sects Alliance, mostly various vassals."

"The former site of the Flame Alliance, Burning Incense Valley, endured a great battle and was nearly abandoned. However, two Golden Core Ascendant Masters from another domain joined hands and established a force called the Wind and Rain Villa. This force has not yet been acknowledged by the Yu Ding Six Sects, yet no one has disturbed them. This matter is also quite strange."

...

"Our Luo Tian Creed has received several sect privileges. Not only did we rent all four First Order Spirit Lands surrounding Danxia Peak, but we also acquired the right to manage Thousand Miles Bamboo Sea!"

"Thousand Miles Bamboo Sea has always been a contentious area, nominally belonging to the once Seven Sects of Yu Ding, but originally it was the territory of Qingdan Valley. After many years of disputes, it almost grew wild, which benefited some rogue cultivators."

"This time, Luo Yun Sect stepped forward, teamed up with other sects, and reached a consensus with Qingdan Valley."

"In the future, Thousand Miles Bamboo Sea will be managed by our Luo Tian Creed. The profits will be divided into three parts, one part to Tianlan, one part to Qingdan Valley, and the last part for ourselves."

"It might seem like a disadvantage, but we’ve calculated it; there’s profit to be made! It will also provide a lot of work for the Qi Refinement Stage cultivators under our command."

...

"The original business is proceeding smoothly and with good momentum. Here is the ledger, Chairman, you can take a look."

"Chuan Gong Hall’s Elder Sun Sifang passed away in meditation a year ago, at the age of two hundred and seventy-five, a rare longevity among Foundation Establishment True Cultivators, hence it is considered a happy demise."

"Before passing away, she personally wrote a medical scripture named ’Ephemeral Blossom Sutra.’ This sutra has already been included in the Chuan Gong Hall, and some female cultivators with innate talent have begun to practice it. This matter is being promoted and carried out by Elder Sun Sifang’s eldest disciple, Su Er."

"Additionally, Elder Wang Yuan obtained a set of combat arrays from Flame Alliance that can be used by Qi Refinement Stage cultivators to form arrays against enemies. He has passed this technique on to the Combat Hall..."

Luo Tian Creed’s senior officials, one by one, reported the recent conditions of their respective departments.

Gradually.

Luo Chen also gained a general understanding of the Luo Tian Creed’s situation over these years.

When the discussion was almost done,

he rubbed his forehead, looking weary, and said, "Everyone has done very well. During my absence, thank you all for managing this family. It has been hard."

Upon hearing this, the people did not take credit.

Instead, each of them sincerely said:

"This is what I should do!"

"Chairman, you are the one who has had a hard time."

"Chairman, please take care of your health!"

As they spoke these words, everyone instinctively gazed at Luo Chen’s tired expression and his gray and withered long hair.

Rumors indeed held true.

The battle at Burning Incense Valley had left the Chairman severely injured.

Otherwise, how could he, young and highly skilled, have prematurely grayed hair?

And all this was to avenge the humiliation suffered by Luo Tian Creed years ago when they were blockaded at their mountain gate, and to exact revenge for the deceased brothers of Luo Tian Creed.

Such a responsible and spirited leader was indeed rare to see.

Recall how great Lianyun Business Union’s influence was in Tianlan Immortal City at that time?

Yet under the siege by Sword Sect’s vassal forces, they handed over the Second and Third Elders to take the blame.

Such behavior, although it indeed saved Lianyun Business Union,

was truly disgraceful in hindsight.

Not like Luo Chen!

Not only did he share life and death with Luo Tian Creed, but he also counterattacked the enemy’s mountain gate, reducing the once renowned Golden Core Great Sect to ashes!

Such a feat was indeed exhilarating and won him immense respect!

In the face of concerned and anxious looks from subordinates, friends, and loved ones,

Luo Chen felt warmth in his heart, but also a bit of helplessness.

He was actually fine now.

But since he had agreed to Cang Long, he had to go through with it fully.

Showing his weakness outwardly could save Luo Tian Creed and Ice Castle a lot of trouble!

This reason might sound somewhat humorous.

But it was indeed a fact!

Previously in the Yu Ding Realm, it was widely rumored that his combat skills were incredibly strong, even surpassing many Golden Core Sect budding cultivators and Ascendant Sect’s true disciples.

Moreover, some enthusiasts even bestowed upon him the title of the foremost cultivator at the Foundation Establishment Stage within the Yu Ding Realm.

A reputation, sometimes, is a stepping stone, a protector.

But at other times, it is also a dangerous thing that could harm someone deeply.

Those from the Great Sects and Ascendant Sects, each one profoundly proud, how could they endure being surpassed by a rogue cultivator?

If Luo Chen appeared uninjured and full of vigor now,

Then within three days!

There would inevitably be Foundation Establishment Stage powerhouses seeking him out to challenge him to duels.

That was no joke.

Although Luo Chen was not afraid of fellow cultivators at the same stage, he was wary of trouble!

Fighting every day, and without any benefits,

How could one live such a life, how could one continue cultivating towards immortality?

Thus, he acted ill very honestly.

For this, he even made some facial disguises, and he had to pay a bit of attention to his usual expressions, tone, and movements.

The only downside.

Perhaps, was that he first deceived his own people!

But it wasn’t a big deal, as long as he succeeded in Core Formation, none of these would matter.

And for Core Formation, he had to consider his future cultivation.

Hao Ranzi had already returned from the Divine Transformation Relics at Accumulation Thunder Mountain two years ago, naturally, the Third Order Cave Mansion had to be returned.

Moreover, Luo Chen didn’t plan to rely on a Third Order Spirit Land for cultivation before reaching the Ninth Level Foundation Establishment.

The risks were too great!

He did not want to endure the Heart’s Test and Demonic Obstruction again.

So, considering his cultivation matters, it was time to repeat an old approach.

Elixirs!

"As for the affairs of the Luo Tian Creed, I am very relieved with you all handling them," he said.

"For major decisions, Hui Niang alone can make the call," he added.

"Unless it involves decisions about the life and death of the Luo Tian Creed, you don’t need to report back to me afterwards."

Luo Chen slowly said.

Sitting beside him, Sima Huiniang looked at everyone, and where her gaze fell, there was agreement.

It was evident that over the years, her capability had been thoroughly acknowledged by everyone.

"Next, while I recover from my injuries, I will refine some elixirs. I’ll need everyone’s help to collect the necessary ingredients," he continued.

"Be at ease, President, the Spirit Medicine Hall has taken up this responsibility," said Feng Xia, who had taken over this crucial department after Bian Zhen’s fall.

Sima Huiniang also agreed to this.

After all, Luo Chen’s matters were always the most important, placed before all other affairs of the Luo Tian Creed!

Luo Chen was very pleased, and immediately handed a list to Sima Huiniang.

He had specially compiled it on his way back.

The main ingredients were not hard to find.

They were for Jade Dew Pill, Increase Blood Pill, Dustfall Pill—three types of elixirs.

In addition, there was also a list that included, but was not limited to, the abundant materials needed for the Tongyou Pill.

The refinement of the Top Grade Tongyou Pill could not be halted.

And the task of deriving the Second Order Tongyou Pill formula required various materials for trial and error.

This matter, too, had to be handled by the Luo Tian Creed.

One could imagine that Luo Chen’s days ahead might appear ordinary, but they would certainly not be leisurely.

HIs gaze swept over everyone and finally rested on Qu Lingjun, who was at the Ninth Level Qi Refinement.

Luo Chen’s heart stirred.

He remembered those days in the Ice Prison, when Cang Long, this "Senior Sister," occasionally offered him guidance.

That was indeed the demeanor of a kind and virtuous elder!

Compared to that, his own guidance to his disciple Qu Lingjun seemed somewhat lacking.

Usually, the disciple’s cultivation over the years was almost entirely based on pointers from Luo Tian Creed’s Foundation Establishment cultivators like Li Yingzhang from time to time.

As for quandaries in Pill Refinement, initially, it involved discussions with other Pill Masters in the Pill Hall, but later, as his Pill Refinement Technique wholly surpassed those of the Pill Hall’s masters, it had become a solo exploration.

He was not quite fulfilling his duties as a master!

"Lingjun, come to my cave mansion once every month from now on," he said.

"I want to see if there is any lag in your cultivation and Pill Refinement Technique."

Sitting beside Li Yingzhang, Qu Lingjun’s eyes lit up upon hearing this!
