Big Data Cultivation-Chapter 1944 - 1946: Trial Mission

The couple’s choice is somewhat strange—they just demand a million dollars, yet the couple spends a million to hire Magu?

But there really are people like this, who care more about saving face than anything else. In the words of cultivators, it’s about achieving peace of mind.

What the couple is thinking is, they’ve tormented my daughter like that, I’d rather get revenge through outsiders than give it to you!

In fact, it’s not just stubbornness. Giving the kidnappers a million might not get their daughter back—what if they decide to kill her?

And even if they manage to get her back, the high-interest loan people would still be troublesome, refusing to admit the company involvement.

So it’s better to go all out and let Magu intervene. What if... it works?

The couple’s logic is very clear; if Magu’s intervention has no effect, so be it. If it does work and deals with those people in Myanmar, then the local loan sharks won’t dare to come anymore.

Madam Ma analyzed it a bit. It’s evident she couldn’t handle such a problem, so she contacted Luohua for help.

She doesn’t expect Luohua to help, but if they can, it’s great. She doesn’t need patrons; it all belongs to Luohua—Danxia Heaven just wants to gain some reputation, and the girl has more reasons to be pitied than to be hated.

Actually, Madam Ma considered that Luohua would best handle divine matters with Lin Heihu. But she understands Lin’s limitations—he’s fine locally, but not as good abroad. As for foreign countries... It’s likely Feng Jun would need to step in.

She didn’t feel that such a trivial matter could attract Feng Jun. If it were her as Feng Jun, she might not even be interested.

But isn’t it worth a try? A mere million dollars surely wouldn’t catch Feng Jun’s eye, but it shows Danxia Heaven’s sincerity.

Feng Jun felt a bit speechless after listening... Is this my responsibility?

He didn’t think he owed such a duty to Danxia Heaven, and the Earth Deity’s energy couldn’t reach that far.

Seriously... if there’s a problem, ask the police.

But just as he was about to refuse, Gao Qiang spoke from not far away, "Boss, An Hejun is familiar with Myanmar, handling this shouldn’t be a big problem. If it really doesn’t work out, I can go with him."

"You two..." Feng Jun paused thoughtfully. Using An Hejun could be an opportunity for the newcomers to earn contributions, providing a reason to teach them in advance and boosting the manor members’ enthusiasm.

Before, when he brought up disciples, he rarely let them face hardships, mostly requiring them to help a bit economically or in business projects, resulting in not much combat experience. Now they need to start learning.

This way, he was tired of being a babysitter, and their growth process was a bit too easy. It’s not really a good thing.

Of course, it’s not that he didn’t have an overall plan; the key was that he himself was relatively weak, keeping a low-profile was the right approach. Plus, the disciples were either relatives or friends, so it was hard to fully utilize them, which led to the current situation.

Now that he has started forming a force, he no longer needs to lay low—in fact, even wanting to hide is impossible. So having the veterans lead the newcomers to complete some "trial missions" is normal.

Without these trial missions, how could it grow into a powerful tradition?

Yet Feng Jun was still undecided. He used his divine sense to summon Sister Hong, "You said you have some connections in the southwest, now there’s this situation... I want to consult you."

Sister Hong, after listening, paused and replied, "I’ve heard of situations like this, estimating my influence won’t suffice, releasing people should be fine, but the debt needs to be paid off... Blood for blood, debt for money, I can’t ignore the rules of the underworld."

"This debt certainly can’t be paid," Madam Ma, eavesdropping aside, couldn’t help but use telepathy to contact Feng Jun, "These loan sharks aren’t good people, and they took the woman to become a working girl. Even if the woman is wrong, this is enough of a consequence."

As expected of the Kun Cultivation Tradition, Madam Ma’s thinking is quite feminine.

Feng Jun frowned and tapped the table in front of him, "I’m pondering, is it really worthwhile to make such a fuss?"

In the end, he still had some Daoist "quiet and inactive" principles in mind, saving people is definitely fine, but taking on such karma rashly... is that too careless?

"It’s definitely worthwhile," Madam Ma channeled efforts to sway him, "Now is an era of great contention, when you should compete, compete. Everyone says ’Millions alive, lives saved,’ but never ’Millions alive, paths saved.’ Maybe this situation should change."

Feng Jun nodded thoughtfully; if these are the reasons, it truly is worth taking action.

It seems Luohua Manor should establish a Contribution Point System!

When it comes to setting up the system, it’s really not difficult. Feng Jun hasn’t just sold one or two task point systems, and he has quantitative standards for Luohua’s Techniques, Talismans, Pills, and Heaven and Earth Treasures.

This time, there’s no time for that, Feng Jun nodded, "Then Gao Qiang, you and An Hejun take a trip, Sister Hong, you go along too. If any problem emerges beyond their handling, you solve it."

Sister Hong seemed a bit troubled—the key issue was her lack of interest in this matter. Isn’t cultivating quietly at Luohua much more relaxing? So she hesitated and said, "There are some people over there... indirectly related to me. How about finding someone else for this? I don’t want to get involved in this karma."

Not wanting to get involved in karma is a very legitimate reason, and Feng Jun didn’t press her further. Instead, after lunch, he gathered a bunch of Qi Refinement Realm cultivators, "There’s a task now, and if someone can handle it nicely, there’s a reward of five freely usable Spirit Stones."

"I’ll go!" Sister Hong was the first to stand up because she was very familiar with this task, so her reaction was naturally a bit quicker than others.

Feng Jun looked at her strangely, "Huh, didn’t you say you didn’t want to get involved in karma?"

"How was I supposed to know you’d offer Spirit Stones?" Sister Hong replied confidently, "With Spirit Stones at stake, that bit of karma doesn’t matter."

Actually, she’s not lacking in Spirit Stones; Feng Jun had given her a hundred as spending money. But these Spirit Stones were conditionally usable—they could be used on the Kunhao Plane but not in the Earth Realm.

Now, although the reward of five Spirit Stones was small, the key was... they were freely usable, without location restrictions.

She doesn’t have places to spend Spirit Stones in the Earth Realm, but here, there are plenty of people who lack Spirit Stones. If she could possess such scarce resources, who knows when they might come in handy.

"Sister Hong, that’s not right," someone spoke up at this time; it was none other than Tang Wenji. She expressed her displeasure, "You’ve already passed up the task, don’t delay my chance to earn Spirit Stones, alright?"

Actually, among these people, the one most eager for Spirit Stones was the Little Celestial Master. She also had "pocket money" given by Feng Jun, but she couldn’t use it in the Earth Realm, so she couldn’t help Maoshan—though she could give it secretly, but... could she really hide it from Feng Jun?

Now that she could earn Spirit Stones openly, she certainly wanted to strive for them.

"I want these Spirit Stones too," Gazi spoke up, "Brother Jun, can I use the Spirit Stones to buy cultivation techniques for Yuhuan?"

He generally doesn’t compete with others and trusts Brother Jun won’t treat him unfairly, but he doesn’t want Luo Yuhuan to wait too long before starting cultivation after the assessment period, so these five Spirit Stones, he must strive for them.

Even though he knew that by doing this, he was breaking the rules of the manor, he still wanted to try to inquire with Brother Jun whether this approach was appropriate—matters of love are originally the hardest to overcome.

Feng Jun’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, not out of anger, but because he felt that Gazi had triggered some kind of unpredictable factor from the void. However, he still asked with a smile, "Five Spirit Stones... What cultivation technique do you think you can buy?"

Gazi hesitated for a moment but answered honestly, "Just... some technique like Director Yang’s."

Gu Jiahui’s expression changed upon hearing this—you know my mom’s cultivation technique?

Gazi indeed guessed a bit because Feng Jun hadn’t deliberately hidden his relationship with Yang Yuxin from him, so even though Gazi was an inexperienced mage, he could roughly imagine it.

Feng Jun’s expression also changed—Luo Yuhuan wants to cultivate the "Soaring Dragon Dominating Phoenix True Resolution," she truly can begin cultivation early, as long as Gazi is willing to guide her.

Also, this cultivation technique comes from the Mortal Realm, although it’s a royal cultivation technique, it truly doesn’t need to be purchased with Spirit Stones—as long as one has the opportunity and isn’t afraid of pressure from the royal family, they can cultivate.

So he sighed lightly, "Since your request is clear, you go ahead... but fulfilling the cultivation technique timing is uncertain; I need to tell you upfront."

Gazi was startled upon hearing this, "This cultivation technique... isn’t it already available? I guarantee she won’t leak it."

"Of course she won’t leak it," Feng Jun glared at him a little annoyed, thinking if she dared to leak the cultivation technique, you’d probably personally punish her. "But we can’t completely do away with the observation period."

Actually, we’ve been observing Luo Yuhuan for quite a while! Gazi wanted to explain this but ultimately nodded his head, "Alright, my request was a bit much, really sorry for troubling the elder."

"You also know you’re being difficult," the Little Celestial Master spoke again, "Gazi, why don’t you let the task go to me instead?"

"I’m just curious," Sister Hong couldn’t hold back any longer, "Wasn’t I the first to accept the task? Gazi, you’re still responsible for the Blessing Courtyard; can you really leave for so long?"

"There’s a vice president in the courtyard," Gazi replied indifferently. The role he plays in the Blessing Courtyard is truly minimal; entering dreams is Lin Heihu’s task, deducing missing children is Elder Feng’s responsibility—he’s just a mascot.

Yin Mingyue can also act as a mascot. Her reputation among the believers in the courtyard isn’t smaller than Gazi’s.

Feng Jun waved his hand lightly, "Alright, it’s settled with Gazi. Finding someone isn’t easy, as a big brother, I want to support him... And by the way, make a big deal out of this, let them know it’s the domestic Daoist sects taking action."

Gazi thought for a moment, then asked seriously, "Are we supposed to kill people?"

"That’s not necessary," Feng Jun also didn’t want to impose too many binding rules, "The way of nature, do whatever seems fitting."
