“What are you standing there for? Hurry up and take out everything!”
Jiang Shicheng’s face was filled with anger as he glared at the other three servant disciples and roared angrily, “Do you want to see me die in the hands of this handsome, elegant, powerful, and lovable number one disciple of the twelve peaks in history?”
Qi Ming nodded slightly, a smile appearing on his face, “Not bad, not bad. Your description is very correct. However, there’s still one sentence missing.”
“Which… which sentence?”
Jiang Shicheng was stunned. He thought to himself, ‘I’ve already gone against my conscience to suck up to you.’
“Add on this: the most outstanding genius disciple in the history of the Heaven Enlightenment Sect.” Qi Ming said.
“Er…”
The expressions of Jiang Shicheng and the other three immediately stiffened.
“Hurry up.”
Qi Ming patted Jiang Shicheng’s face with the body of the sword. “If you don’t take out everything, the kind-hearted me will have to immediately let the four of you lose your heads.”
“Lord…”
Jiang Shicheng swallowed his saliva. The cold feeling on his face made his heart turn cold. He quickly took out the inferior-grade storage bag at his waist and handed it to Qi Ming respectfully, “This… This is all I have.”
“The three of you as well.”
Qi Ming took the inferior-grade storage bag in Jiang Shicheng’s hand and did not look at it carefully for the time being. His gaze landed on the other three servant disciples.
“Senior Brother, please accept it.”
The three servant disciples looked at each other and had already taken out the inferior-grade storage bags on their bodies. They did not dare to be crafty. It was really because Qi Ming’s strength was too strong, and it had already awed them all.
“You’re quite sensible.”
Qi Ming weighed it in his hand in satisfaction before putting the Demon Slaying Sword down from Jiang Shicheng’s neck. He said, “Get lost quickly. Don’t let me see you again.”
“Otherwise, I’ll rob you every time I see you.”
“Senior Brother, you must be joking.”
Jiang Shicheng’s fawning smile had completely transformed him into a lackey. He hunched his back slightly and nodded, “How can this be called robbing?”
“The four of us who admire your peerless charm and your reputation, Senior Brother. That’s why we gave all our belongings to you.”
“Of course it’s not robbery.”
“Yes, yes, yes.”
“It can’t be called robbery. We’re giving it to Senior Brother willingly.”
“We feel that this is the only way to show our admiration and reverence for Senior Brother.”
The other three servant disciples said.
“Hahaha…”
Qi Ming immediately laughed and patted Jiang Shicheng and the others on the shoulder. He said, “Very good, very good. The few of you are very promising. You will definitely become great in the future. I think highly of you.”
“It’s our honor to be praised by Senior Brother.” Jiang Shicheng said excitedly.
“Senior Brother.” Jiang Shicheng’s gaze turned and he said, “Why don’t the four of us follow you? Although the four of us don’t have much strength, compared to Senior Brother, we’re like tiny fireflies compared to the bright moon. However, the few of us can help you deal with some trivial matters. We’ll definitely be of some use.”
“Oh.” Qi Ming sized up Jiang Shicheng and the other three. The other three servant disciples looked ordinary. They were not tall or short, and their spirit energy was around the fourth level of Qi Refinement.
“State your names.” Qi Ming said.
“Yes, Senior Brother.” The three servant disciples said in unison.
“My name is Zhang Jianwen.”
“My full name is Ren Keshun. Senior Brother, you can call me Shun directly.”
“Senior Brother, you can call me by my nickname ‘Erdan’. My name is also Liu Erdan.”
They introduced themselves.
Qi Ming nodded slightly. He glanced at them and pondered for a moment. “Alright, from now on, you guys will follow me.”
“But…”
“Since you’ve already chosen to follow me, you have to listen to me. If you disobey me, don’t blame me for being impolite.”
“Senior Brother, don’t worry.”
Jiang Shicheng and the others said in unison, “We will follow your lead, Senior Brother.”
“Let’s go.” Qi Ming said, “Follow me to the Sword Edge Mountain Range to take a look.”
“Yes, Senior Brother.” Jiang Shicheng and the others replied.
On the way to the Sword Edge Mountain Range, Jiang Shicheng said to Qi Ming, “Senior Brother, you should know that the Heavenly Chief Mystic Realm is actually formed from the ‘physical body’ of a Great Demon Cultivator. Therefore, there are already rumors that there is a legacy of the Great Demon Cultivator, Heavenly Chief, somewhere in the Heavenly Chief Mystic Realm.”
“Hehe.”
The corners of Qi Ming’s mouth curled up, “You believe it?”
“It’s better to believe than not.”
Jiang Shicheng said, “If there really is such an inheritance, it will definitely be a great fortune to obtain it.”
“Let’s not talk about whether there’s such an inheritance or not. The Heavenly Chief Mystic Realm has already existed for more than 500 years. With the foundation of the Heavenly Enlightenment Sect, the entire Heavenly Chief Mystic Realm has been plundered for a full 500 years. Even if there really is a Heavenly Chief Inheritance, it would probably have been taken away by the higher-ups of the Heaven Enlightenment Sect long ago.”
Qi Ming smiled and said, “The good stuff has long been plundered.”
“There’s more.”
“So what if we really find the inheritance of the Heavenly Chief? The Great Demon Cultivator, Heavenly Chief, is only a defeated opponent of the Grand Elders of the Heaven Enlightenment Sect. As disciples of the Heaven Enlightenment Sect, don’t we want a better and stronger inheritance of the Heaven Enlightenment Sect? Why should we look for the inheritance of the Heavenly Chief? Isn’t that just stupid?”
Qi Ming shrugged, “Since you want to work for me, then obediently help me find spiritual herbs. Don’t think about such unrealistic things. Do you understand?”
“We… we understand.”
“We’re just curious.”
Jiang Shicheng and the others quickly replied.
Sword Edge Mountain Range.
The main body was winding and straight. Looking from afar, it was like the edge of an incomparably huge sword lying on the ground of the Heavenly Chief Mystic Realm.
Moreover…
In the Sword Edge Mountain Range, there were many demon beasts.
Three hours later, Qi Ming and the others came out of the Sword Edge Mountain Range. Jiang Shicheng and the others were in a sorry state. They were covered in soil and had disheveled hair, looking like beggars.
Moreover…
Their clothes were still stained with the blood of demon beasts.
Clearly, they had experienced battle.
Unknowingly, almost six hours had passed, and there was still more than half of the twelve hours left. With the help of Jiang Shicheng and the others, Qi Ming indeed obtained a lot of spiritual herbs.
Among them, there were 38 low-grade Qi Refinement realm spiritual herbs, 18 medium-grade Qi Refinement realm spiritual herbs, 8 high-grade Qi Refinement realm spiritual herbs, and 3 top-grade Qi Refinement realm spiritual herbs.
In total, Qi Ming’s score was 130 points.
Actually, it was already quite a lot.
However, the greatest difficulty of this test was that all the servant disciples did not know the scores of the others, so they were utterly unaware if the number of spiritual herbs in their hands was sufficient to enter the top ten.
All the servant disciples could only work hard to collect spiritual herbs and increase their points.
Most importantly, among the 120 servant disciples.
Only the spiritual herbs collected by the top ten servant disciples could belong to them and be sold to the sect. The sect would offer an absolutely fair price to purchase them, and it would be a considerable amount of spirit stone income.
However, below the top ten, only 10% of the spiritual herbs collected by all the servant disciples could belong to them. The remaining 90% of the spiritual herbs would be taken back by the sect.
After all, the Heavenly Chief Mystic Realm belonged to the Heaven Enlightenment Sect.
Naturally, the production of the Heavenly Chief Mystic Realm should belong to the Heavenly Enlightenment Sect.
“Senior Brother.” Jiang Shicheng asked, “Where are we going next?”
“Sunset Valley.” Qi Ming said.
“You can’t go anywhere.”
However, at this moment, something unexpected happened.
Directly ahead, a black-haired, blue-eyed servant disciple walked out from behind a huge rock. Behind him were numerous huge wolves.
Giant wolves.
One of the most common demon beasts in the Heavenly Chief Mystic Realm liked to live in groups. There were many of them, and when they formed groups, they possessed extremely powerful combat strength.
“It’s you.”
When Qi Ming saw this servant disciple, he recognized him with a single glance.
It was the servant disciple who had sensed the demonic qi when he had just entered the Heavenly Chief Mystic Realm.
He did not expect to meet the other party under such circumstances.
“This…”
When Jiang Shicheng and the others saw this, their faces revealed shock as they cried out in alarm, “Such demonic qi and control over a pack of wolves. You… you’re actually a demon cultivator!!”
