Huh? Isn't this an adventure kingdom building game?! Chapter 378: A Share for the Witness

Bai Yunqi had lost his Lifebound Weapon and had yet to recover it, so he was in need of sothing handy. This Blue Silk Fan perfectly aligned with the Cultivation Technique he practiced, and it was truly to his liking!

He toyed with the fan a few tis before closing it and standing up to express his gratitude again.

"Brother Long, the way you wield the fan is quite impressive, could you teach ?" With a casual flourish of the fan, Wan Mingchuan was dazzled and envious, eager to learn.

"I’ll teach you how to twirl a sword when we get ho." Bai Yunqi was in high spirits as he put away the fan and smiled, "The Venerable Family gifted you that sword which is an Upper Grade weapon. Practicing swordsmanship is the right path to follow."

Wan Mingchuan agreed excitedly, continuing to savor the Cyan Plum Brew specially requested by the Bear Demon.

His master was an exceptional cook but had never made beverages before. It was his first ti tasting the sweet and delicious juice brewed from fruits, and it was delightful!

Tang Qin glanced at the others at the table and thought to herself that Mr. Jiang was undoubtedly powerful, but being so young, he didn’t know much about leading a team. How could he give away the only Magical Treasure in front of everyone?

Thus, those who received rewards were naturally overjoyed, while those who didn’t couldn’t help but feel resentnt, especially soone like Hu Zhile, who was ticulous and...

She pondered, sneakily glancing at her forr subordinate, surprisingly finding not a hint of envy or jealousy in Hu Zhile’s eyes!

"How could that be possible?" Tang Qin frowned slightly.

She knew this little fox all too well; always striving to be the best. How could she not feel envious seeing others receiving such valuable treasures?

This wasn’t like Hu Zhile’s temperant and character at all!

"Here, this Eight-Treasure Hairpin is made for you." Jiang Yuan cheerfully took out an Earth Elent Magical Treasure, Eight-Treasure Hairpin, from his Storage Bag and handed it to Hu Zhile, "Isn’t it beautiful? Do you like it?"

The Eight-Treasure Hairpin, true to its na, had a Cloud Patterned Golden Hairpin base adorned with eight gems aligned with Earth Elent Power. It was elegant yet magnificently imposing, radiating a profound strength of the earth as soon as it was brought out.

"Thank you, Venerable Family! I adore it!" Hu Zhile smiled brightly, taking it with both hands and imdiately placing the hairpin on her head.

Tang Qin pursed her lips, finally realizing why she wasn’t envious or jealous; it turns out Mr. Jiang indeed treated everyone fairly!

This realization left her feeling slightly bitter, regretting she hadn’t seized the opportunity. When she first t the gentleman at Tian Changgui’s house, she only appreciated his skill with the Paperman and Paper Horse Skill and wished to collaborate, but hadn’t delved deeper into gaining favor with him.

Reflecting now, even soone as opportunistic as Ma Hongtu was respectful towards Mr. Jiang—he must have discovered sothing significant!

If she had been more astute and shrewd back then, it could have been her practicing Cultivation next to Mr. Jiang, leaving no place for the little fox!

"Yun Mo, take this Thunder God Hamr for now. I’ll replace it for you with sothing better when I find it." Jiang Yuan spotted the domineering Magical Treasure hamr in the box and brought it out specifically for him.

The hamr with Thunder Runes was perfect in every way, its only flaw being its bias towards a defensive Magical Treasure rather than a Weapon, thus its attack capabilities left sothing to be desired.

"Thank you, Sir!" Yun Mo, in humanoid form, couldn’t stop grinning.

With a Spiritually Energetic Tree House and a fitting Cultivation Technique already, and now even a Thunder Elent Magical Treasure acquired, was it not justified to put in more effort in Cultivation and repay the gentleman for the attention and resources dedicated to him?

He must work harder to beco a more useful Cultivator for the courtyard!

Jiang Yuan hadn’t anticipated that gifting a Magical Treasure would invigorate Yun Mo so much. Observing the goodwill rating of the courtyard mbers surging upwards, even Tang Qin, the Bear Demon, and Xie Chenyuan displayed a sliver of increased good will, pleasing him further.

With over five thousand years of lifespan, who wouldn’t be pleased and a little flustered by such longevity?

Moreover, the recent battle with the Demon Monk had boosted his confidence in the combat effectiveness of the "Exoskeleton Armor," showcasing his strength ant there was no longer a need to be constantly wary and reserved. Displaying a little prowess would be beneficial in attracting allies.

Sure enough, Xie Chenyuan’s favor incrented by 12 points, making it easier to inquire about information later.

"Yun Shu, this Dustless Brush is for you." Jiang Yuan handed over a brush etched with runes.

"Huh? I get a gift too?" Clearly surprised, she hurriedly accepted it upon recovering from her shock, exclaiming joyfully, "This is great; I’ll use it for Talisman Painting from now on. No more replacing brushes every few days, and this one is rich with Spiritual Energy. I’ll definitely create better Talismans!"

Xie Chenyuan was taken aback, "Are you skilled in Talisman Painting? Are you a... Talisman Master?"

Not wishing to reveal his abilities readily, he hurriedly added a clarification after the shocking slip.

However, the other party was clearly a Puppet!

It’s well-known that professions like Alchemist, Artifact Refiner, and Talisman Master have stringent requirents, and without talent, not even a Human Cultivator at the Tribulation Crossing Realm could paint Talismans. How could a lifeless Puppet accomplish such a feat?

Yet Yun Shu smiled at him, blissfully, "I can only paint basic Talismans that can be exchanged for Spirit Stones, not really skilled. It only counts as skilled once I learn to paint high level Talismans."

"Right! Sister Yun Shu’s real forte is electrofishing." Wan Mingchuan earnestly added.

Xie Chenyuan: ......

Is she truly a Puppet? Why is she unlike any other Puppet I’ve encountered?!

"Mingchuan, your Realm is a bit low, so after much consideration, this Jade Pendant was deed the most suitable. Carry it with you, and it can shield you from so attacks when necessary."

"Thank you, Master!"

After distributing all the rewards to the courtyard mbers, Jiang Yuan, smiling with squinted eyes, produced three small Jade Bottles from his Storage Bag, "It’s a celebratory day, everyone here can partake. Here are so Qi Blood Pills, they’re not of great value, just for fun."

These Elixirs were one of the bits and pieces obtained after slaying the Demon Monk. The First Grade Elixir Qi Blood Pills replenished both health and mana. Previously, they were treasured like gems, but since the Alchemy Room upgraded to Level Two, capable of producing Second Grade Elixirs, First Grade ones were no longer valued.

With no substantial use for them, they were perfect for gaining goodwill.

"Elixirs?!" The Bear Demon’s eyes lit up instantly. For ordinary cultivators lacking access to Alchemists, they needed to spend hefty sums for anything they required, making any Elixir precious.

He rubbed his hands, embarrassed, and said, "How can I accept your Elixirs when I have yet to repay the life-saving grace?"

"We t once by chance in the Market, and eting again today is like a reunion of old friends, so just accept it. As for the life-saving grace, there’s no need to ntion it again. I only warned you back then, and you heeded the advice and left on your own. If anyone saved, it was yourself saving yourself."

Jiang Yuan could see that the other party truly needed it, so he pushed the Elixirs forward once more. After a few polite exchanges, the Bear Demon accepted them, his face slightly flushed;

"Thanks to Sir, I escaped in ti, the twenty Ghosts not only remained unhard but also saved many Cultivators’ lives, thus accumulating Yin Virtue. I should be the one thanking Sir, but since it’s co to this, and I do need the Elixirs, I’ll accept them first and thank you another day." Tang Qin naturally accepted them.

Afterward, she used her peripheral vision to glance at Hu Zhile, seeing that she didn’t even glance at the bottle of Elixirs, she understood that this little fox, following Jiang Sir, must have access to better Elixirs, thus dismissing these!

What to do? She so dearly wants to join this little courtyard they talk about, and follow Jiang Sir around.

But since she’s just a Ghost Cultivator, neither a Family Immortal nor a mount, what capacity could grant her a position by his side?
