Cultivating With Mutated Heavenly Spirit Roots-Chapter 81: So many

"Your disciple stole a treasure from our Zhao State, hand it over at once!" Old General Zhao State Yang’s face was grim, his tone sharp, as he pointed directly at Fang Hong in the crowd, causing a stir all around.

The surrounding everyone heard this and all turned their heads, following his finger.

Immediately, a path opened in the crowd, and all eyes focused on Fang Hong.

Facing the sudden accusation and the attention of the everyone, Fang Hong’s expression remained calm, but he was somewhat nervous inside. After all, this old man was a peak Core Formation Cultivator.

Elder Huang Xiong glanced at Fang Hong, said nothing, but took a large step forward, blocking Fang Hong.

He looked at Zhao State Yang expressionlessly and said in a deep voice, "No matter what treasure my sect disciple stole from you, if he stole it, it’s his."

Elder Huang Xiong spoke with authority. As an Elder of Danxian Valley, he naturally had to protect his own disciple in front of outsiders.

When Old General Zhao State Yang heard this, his old face grew even grimmer. His internal magical power surged out, and the surrounding disciples, seeing this, quickly retreated several steps, not daring to approach.

"You step back first," Huang Xiong said to Fang Hong, his own magical power also beginning to surge.

Fang Hong nodded and could only retreat to the side.

Su Shan, witnessing this, couldn’t help but feel a little worried. Being clever, she immediately wondered if Fang Hong’s golden thunder bamboo was stolen from a Zhao State Cultivator?

The aura between Zhao State Yang and Huang Xiong gradually escalated, and a conflict was about to erupt.

At this moment, Elder Ye Yu of Taiyi Sect and Elder Gu Fen of Beast Taming Sect also stepped forward, entering the fray and standing beside Huang Xiong.

"Old General Zhao State, everything in Evergreen Blessed Herb Garden is obtained by those with affinity. How can you speak of stealing?" Elder Gu Fen of Beast Taming Sect sneered, his magical power surging, clearly siding with Danxian Valley.

The three sects of Qin usually competed with each other, but when facing Zhao State Cultivators, the three sects were quite united.

Seeing this, Zhao State Yang felt immense pressure. If the three Late Core Formation Cultivators on the opposite side joined forces, he would find it difficult to resist.

In this situation, Zhao State Yang could only swallow his anger. He glared fiercely at Fang Hong, then flicked his sleeve, taking out a flying wooden boat.

"Get on board," he said in a deep voice.

The other Zhao State Cultivators, seeing this, also had no choice but to board the wooden boat.

Princess Zhao Wanyu still stood to the side, her gaze fixed on Fang Hong, her face full of unwillingness, wishing she could tear Fang Hong to pieces.

How could she swallow this anger, with the golden thunder bamboo snatched away just like that?

No matter how much the woman glared, Fang Hong’s expression remained calm and unperturbed, but he secretly became vigilant.

This time, he had offended the entire Zhao State royal family. He would have to be more careful when going out in the future...

"Princess, we should leave first. The current situation is unfavorable for us," Zhao State Yang said, coming to Princess Zhao Wanyu’s side and whispering a persuasion.

Princess Zhao Wanyu glared at Fang Hong again, then could only huffily fly onto the wooden boat. After that, Zhao State Yang activated the flying wooden boat, carrying his disciples away.

"Thank you, two everyone, for your assistance this time," Elder Huang Xiong cupped his hands slightly, expressing his gratitude to Gu Fen and Ye Yu.

"Alright, the matter of Evergreen Blessed Herb Garden is concluded for now. I’ll take my leave first," Elder Gu Fen waved his hand.

Then, he summoned a giant sword, enveloped all his disciples with powerful magical power, and flew away.

"Farewell," Ye Yu also said, then summoned a green lotus platform, carrying her sect disciples away.

Before leaving, Fang Hong glanced at Su Shan and gave her a smile...

"What is your name?" After the everyone dispersed, Elder Huang Xiong slowly walked up to Fang Hong and asked in a gentle tone.

"disciple Fang Hong," Fang Hong respectfully replied.

"Fang Hong?" Elder Huang Xiong nodded slightly, looking at him with deep eyes, "What treasure did you take from Zhao State’s hands to make that old fellow so furious?"

"Reporting to Elder, this disciple took dozens of millennium spirit medicine from Princess Zhao State and injured her, which is why she was so enraged," Fang Hong said calmly, making up an excuse.

He certainly wouldn’t give up a treasure like the golden thunder bamboo.

"Hahaha... so it was millennium spirit medicine! Fang Hong, you did well to snatch it. You should have snatched her spirit medicine."

"What are those Zhao State Cultivators? They really think Evergreen Blessed Herb Garden is theirs..."

Huang Xiong was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then burst out laughing, patting Fang Hong’s shoulder with full appreciation.

Fang Hong gave an awkward smile, thinking he had managed to fool them.

"Let’s go! We’re returning to the sect." With Huang Xiong’s command, he flicked his sleeve, and a yellow-skinned gourd flew out, rapidly growing larger, sweeping all the Danxian Valley disciples into it, and flying straight towards the sect.

...

Ten days later, the everyone successfully returned to Danxian Valley, landing in front of a vast and solemn hall within the sect.

All the disciples stood in neat rows, their expressions solemn, taking out the spirit medicine Storage Pouches issued by the sect, preparing for inspection to prevent anyone from secretly hoarding spirit medicine.

Elder Huang Xiong personally oversaw the inspection. He took out a small cat with golden fur, looking docile and cute, but in reality, it was a rare Spiritual Beast capable of keenly sniffing out the aura of various spirit medicine.

Elder Huang Xiong personally led it to inspect each disciple, sniffing the aura in their storage bag. If anything was hidden, it would be exposed on the spot.

Fang Hong stood calmly to the side, quietly waiting for the inspection, but he was somewhat nervous inside.

Because he hadn’t put the golden thunder bamboo in his spirit medicine storage bag, he didn’t know if this little cat could sniff it out.

According to Fang Hong’s understanding, the golden thunder bamboo did not belong to spirit medicine, so he shouldn’t need to take it out, right...

Just as Fang Hong was nervous, Elder Huang Xiong finally came to his side with the little cat and let the little cat sniff beside his storage bag.

A moment later, the little cat jumped onto Elder Huang Xiong’s shoulder, shaking its head intelligently, indicating that Fang Hong had passed.

Huang Xiong nodded in satisfaction and said loudly, "Very good, everyone is very honest."

Fang Hong secretly breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed his judgment was correct; this little cat could only sniff out some spirit medicine. Now, he didn’t have to worry about the golden thunder bamboo anymore...

"Now, let’s begin distributing the spirit medicine," Huang Xiong put away the Spiritual Beast, signaling the disciples to take out their spirit medicine.

According to sect rules, disciples could keep half of the spirit medicine they obtained, and the rest was to be handed over to the sect.

Immediately, the hall was filled with abundant Spiritual Qi and fragrant aromas. Various spirit medicine were displayed, glowing with circulating light, all rare treasures from Evergreen Blessed Herb Garden.

The disciples were beaming with joy, beginning to choose their spirit medicine. Most chose medicinal ingredients for Solid Essence Pills, as Solid Essence Pills could increase the success rate of Core Formation, and many disciples came for this reason.

For a time, the hall was bustling with activity and lively chatter.

Soon, most of the disciples had finished distributing their spirit medicine and were overjoyed.

The remaining spirit medicine were all taken by Elder Huang Xiong. As for how the sect’s high-ranking officials would distribute them, that was their business.

Fang Hong did not take out his spirit medicine immediately, because he had collected quite a lot. Seeing that the other disciples had all finished distributing theirs, he then took out his spirit medicine.

One, ten, one hundred....

"Hahaha... So many!"
