Chapter 94

The lion opened its mouth wide!

Wei Changfeng seemed to have been overwhelmed by Bai Qi's generosity. After receiving two rare lingzhi mushrooms and a hundred low-grade spirit pearls, he was still not satisfied and wanted to make more demands.

Was he really treating the Bai Lu tribe as a fat sheep to be taken advantage of?

Dangerous light flashed in Bai Qi's eyes.

This tribal chief was said to be a powerful expert at the innate realm, with martial skills so profound that they were hard to fathom. The aura he exuded in his anger and embarrassment made the entire room's atmosphere change!

Yun Li desperately signaled to Wei Changfeng, indicating that he should know when to stop and not get carried away.

However, Wei Changfeng seemed not to notice, and with a smile, he continued, "The third thing, I would like to stay in your tribe for a while. Could you, Senior, arrange a secluded place for me to practice martial arts and swordsmanship?"

What?

The third request was this?

Shuishan and Yun Li both felt a mix of amusement and frustration, realizing they had worried for nothing.

In fact, they didn't need to worry about Wei Changfeng at all. He was already very satisfied with exchanging a fourth-grade elixir formula he couldn't use for the items he needed most. He wouldn't be so arrogant as to ask for more.

As for how much the Bai Lu tribe could earn from the Zhi Shen Jie Du Dan, that was entirely someone else's business. Wei Changfeng would not have any greedy or ulterior motives!

The anger in Bai Qi's eyes turned to surprise, and he shook his head, laughing, "This is simple. I'll let you stay in the Bai Lu Pavilion. You can stay as long as you like!"

Shuishan and Yun Li looked at each other, seeing a hint of envy and surprise in each other's eyes.

The Bai Lu Pavilion was one of the most prestigious places in the Bai Lu Miao Village. Only the most honored guests of the tribe could stay there, like Jingyun Martial Academy's Master Dugu Shen, who didn't even have the qualifications. Only if Dongfang Zheng personally arrived!

Shuishan and Yun Li were no exception, and Wei Changfeng was just a martial academy student in his teens. If this matter were to be known, few would believe it.

But considering the benefits the Zhi Shen Jie Du Dan could bring to the tribe, such high treatment was not excessive.

Wei Changfeng bowed and said, "Thank you, Senior. Also, regarding the transaction of the elixir formula, I hope your tribe can keep it confidential. I am very grateful and promise not to sell the formula to anyone else!"

Bai Qi smiled slightly and said, "You have trouble at Jingyun Martial Academy, right? That Master Dugu asked you to stay to treat my daughter, probably with ill intentions, right?"

Wei Changfeng smiled bitterly and said, "Senior, you have keen insight. I am ashamed!"

Family disgrace should not be publicized, but he didn't really consider Dugu Shen a respected elder. Since Bai Qi had already seen through it, why should he cover for him?

Wei Changfeng chose to stay in Bai Lu Village for a while to avoid being further manipulated. Anyway, his own cultivation wasn't a problem, and he could return to the academy in time before the competition!

"Speaking of which, I have some knowledge of medicine. If you need it..."

Bai Qi smiled and said, "I appreciate your offer, but I have already invited Master Li Zongyang."

Li Zongyang!

Wei Changfeng had heard of this master alchemist, a senior at the Great Qin Alchemy Academy, whose strength and cultivation were undoubtedly formidable.

Since this master alchemist was involved, there was no need for Wei Changfeng, a minor character, to be involved.

He took out the elixir formula he had copied the night before and handed it to Bai Qi.

Bai Qi took the formula and looked at it, somewhat surprised. He asked meaningfully, "You're giving me the formula now. Aren't you afraid I might renege on the deal?"

Wei Changfeng smiled and said, "The descendants of Nüwa are not barbarians who break their promises. I trust you, Senior!"

On one hand, he trusted the character of the Miao descendants, and on the other, if they did renege, he could just make the formula public, and the Bai Lu tribe wouldn't gain much!

Bai Qi looked at him deeply and said, "I do admire you. But you're right, we, the descendants of Nüwa, value trust and keep our promises. We would never do anything dishonorable!"

"You can stay in the Bai Lu Pavilion first. The things you need will be delivered to you tomorrow morning!"

For such an important transaction, Bai Qi had to be cautious. He couldn't immediately hand over the lingzhi mushrooms and spirit pearls without verifying the reliability of the formula.

Wei Changfeng understood this and was not worried about the other party reneging. He agreed happily.

Bai Qi instructed a servant girl to take Wei Changfeng to the guest room in the Bai Lu Pavilion to rest.

After Wei Changfeng left, the tribal chief of the Bai Lu tribe fell into deep thought, not speaking for a long time.

It was the Great Shaman Bai Haoran who first broke the silence, asking, "Is the tribal chief worried about the elixir formula?"

Bai Qi came to his senses and laughed, "I'm not worried about the authenticity of the formula. I'm confident that my old eyes can still judge people. This young man is smart and knows his limits!"

He praised Wei Changfeng and continued, "But in our tribe, no one can refine a fourth-grade elixir. If we send the formula to the Jingyun Alchemy Academy, it might..."

The secret of the Zhi Shen Jie Du Dan might be compromised, and the Jingyun Alchemy Academy might control this extremely important elixir for the shamans, making the Bai Lu tribe pay a higher price!

No one would do such a foolish thing!

But the problem was that without a high-level alchemist, having the formula was useless.

Bai Haoran sighed, "We, the Miao descendants, have no tradition of alchemy. We haven't produced a true master alchemist in a thousand years. Why not ask Li Zongyang for help?"

Bai Qi pondered for a moment but shook his head.

He suddenly asked Yun Li, "You said earlier that all the Zhi Shen Jie Du Dan you brought were refined by Wei Changfeng?"

Yun Li respectfully replied, "Yes, Tribal Chief..."

He recounted the process of Wei Changfeng refining the Zhi Shen Jie Du Dan with the palm cauldron, of course, not forgetting to mention the fabricated reason.

After listening, Bai Qi said without hesitation, "Regardless of the method, it's impressive that he can refine the Zhi Shen Jie Du Dan. Staying in Bai Lu Village for a while is a great opportunity!"

"Remember to treat him as a true honored guest, and do not show any disrespect!"

The last two sentences were directed at the tribal elders present, with a very serious attitude.

The elders looked at each other but did not raise any objections.

While Bai Qi was discussing Wei Changfeng with the tribal elders, Wei Changfeng, led by a Miao servant girl, arrived at the VIP guest room on the fifth floor of the Bai Lu Pavilion.

The Bai Lu Pavilion was located on the West Cui Peak, built on the mountain with a grand scale, having seven floors in total. The top floor was level with the Nüwa Shrine, representing the highest power of the Bai Lu tribe!

There weren't many guest rooms on the fifth floor, but each was spacious. The north-facing structure allowed the living room and bedroom to bask in warm sunlight. There were also separate meditation rooms and bathrooms.

In terms of decoration and layout, it was no less than the suites of the noble families in Jingyun City.

What was particularly rare was that outside the guest room was a separate floating cloud stone platform. Standing on it, one could enjoy the beautiful scenery of the entire Bai Lu Miao Village and the surrounding area, making one feel refreshed and at ease.

Since he was here, he might as well settle in. After familiarizing himself with the environment, Wei Changfeng fell into a deep sleep in the bedroom.

He hadn't slept well the night before and was quite tired. It was a good time to rest and regain his strength.

He didn't wake up until it was dark.

When he put on his outer robe and came to the living room, he found that the dining table was already set with a variety of delicious dishes, and two Miao servant girls were busy preparing.

One of the pretty servant girls bowed to Wei Changfeng and said, "Young Master Wei, the tribal chief instructed us to prepare dinner for you in the room. Please bear with us until tomorrow evening when we will have a formal banquet. Please forgive us!"

Wei Changfeng smiled and said, "Tribal Chief Bai is too polite. Thank you on my behalf!"

He didn't hesitate and sat down at the dining table, picking up his chopsticks and eating heartily.

He hadn't eaten much all day, and his stomach was already growling. He ate with great satisfaction!

After the meal, the servant girls cleared away the leftovers and brought tea and snacks.

The pretty servant girl asked softly, "Young Master Wei, do you need to bathe tonight? I will prepare the hot water for you."

Wei Changfeng nodded, "Sure, thank you for the trouble!"

The pretty servant girl smiled, "It's my honor, Young Master Wei. Please don't be too formal..."

She was only sixteen or seventeen years old, with skin as white as jade and a beautiful face. She was bold and lively, and her large eyes sparkled under the light, making her even more charming!

Wei Changfeng's heart stirred, and he couldn't help but ask, "What's your name?"

The pretty servant girl said, "I am Shui Yun Yao..."

She looked at Wei Changfeng boldly, with a hint of flirtation in her eyes.

Miao girls were passionate and straightforward, expressing their feelings directly without being coy.

It was clear that this Miao girl had a good impression of Wei Changfeng.

But Wei Changfeng knew that, although she was just a servant girl, he shouldn't easily provoke her. If he indulged in her beauty, he couldn't think of abandoning her irresponsibly!

It was said that all Miao girls raised a heart-binding insect from a young age. Once a man broke her virginity, the heart-binding insect would reside in his body.

If the two were in love and stayed together, the heart-binding insect would be harmless.

But if the man abandoned her, the consequences would be terrifying. The heart-binding insect, controlled by the Miao girl, could make the man suffer endlessly!

Although Wei Changfeng wasn't afraid of the heart-binding insect, he didn't come to the Bai Lu Miao Village to flirt.

So he deliberately ignored Shui Yun Yao's hints, making her clench her teeth in frustration but unable to do anything.

A full moon rose into the night sky, casting a gentle silver glow over the earth.

Wei Changfeng walked alone to the floating cloud stone platform, overlooking the thousands of lights below.

A strong wind blew, and a sense of heroism welled up in his heart!
