Huh? Isn't this an adventure kingdom building game?! Chapter 407: Ginger Gets Spicier as It Ages

Hey? This is my first piece of clothing that can be worn daily and has so many attributes added!

Jiang Yuan is currently wearing a white robe with a golden bamboo pattern, custom-made from Miss Hu Jiu’s shop, at a friendly price of five hundred Spirit Stones. There was originally another one he could have acquired for five hundred and fifty Spirit Stones at a friendly price, which was the Hundred Birds Phoenix Robe he saw the first ti he entered Miss Hu Jiu’s cloth shop.

But that one was simply too flashy, and it only added 30 to defense. The embroidered birds on the robe could be activated with a Secret Technique to transmit information over short distances, which was rather useless to Jiang Yuan.

Unfortunately, seamstress Miss Xiao Ba had a low Realm and few learning channels, so the styles of exquisite robes she could produce were limited; the Textile Workshop didn’t yet have the raw materials to make casual clothing for himself.

And the white robe with the golden bamboo pattern was relatively low-key, able to increase defense by 50 and speed by 20, so he wore it as it was better than nothing.

In comparison, the small gift casually given to juniors by Elder Qi was quite valuable.

"I see you quite enjoy drinking this Spirit Tea; as such, I’ll gift you a tea set Magical Treasure," Elder Qin flicked his fingers, and a small gilded white jade tea set flew out from the Storage Bag, "Of course, to brew the best-tasting Spirit Tea, you need the best tea leaves and Spiritual Spring water, place them in the teapot, and you can drink it whenever you like.

Right now, I’ve filled this Magical Treasure with tea leaves and Spiritual Spring water for you. Once you’ve finished drinking and can’t find such good Spirit Tea, just co visit, and I’ll take you to pick tea."

Under the influence of affinity, he also thought the young man, who was humble and good at listening, was quite nice, reminiscent of his own youth.

Moreover, he constantly praised the Spirit Tea, showing good taste!

Good things should be shared with knowledgeable juniors, otherwise, wouldn’t it be a waste?

[Gilded White Jade Pot: Ordinary Magical Treasure, contains a world inside that can hold 100 portions of tea leaves and 200 portions of well water. In a sufficient state of raw materials, Spirit Tea water can be poured out at any ti; the quality of the tea water is related to the level of tea leaves and well water; the higher the level, the better the quality]

Before he could thank Elder Qi, another set of tea ware landed steadily in front of him, and Jiang Yuan, pleasantly surprised, quickly stood up to express his gratitude, while pondering whether or not to reveal the secrets he had discovered to them, despite having no evidence.

In fact, he had wanted to ntion it to Lin Yao at the Black Tortoise Pavilion before, but the other party was too excited, and he didn’t have any evidence. Fearing it would provoke her to act impulsively, he refrained from explaining on the spot.

Elder Lu, seeing this, smiled and said, "No need to be polite with us. Magical Treasures and Spirit Stones are just worldly possessions, those who are fated to use them should take them. Otherwise, they would just sit idle in our hands; when we pass away or vanish without a trace or leave them to gather dust, wouldn’t they beco wasted? I have a little sothing here too; put it in your bedroom as decoration, it’s both beautiful and practical."

As he finished speaking, a radiant light flashed before Jiang Yuan could see what it was, and he detected a faint floral scent.

[Flowing Cloud Sakura: A rare potted flower loved by cultivators, known as a micro Spirit Gathering Array, it takes hundreds of years to have a chance of successful cultivation. When it blooms, it is lush like clouds, its roots absorb Spiritual Power and then release it through branches and flowers, making the Spiritual Energy in an enclosed space very dense. When releasing Spiritual Energy, it flows slowly like clouds or mist, hence the na Flowing Cloud Sakura]

The system appraisal made Jiang Yuan’s eyes light up. Indeed, after the flash of light, there was a deep blue jade flower pot with a beautifully shaped flower blooming with clusters of miniaturized sakura blossoms in front of him.

Both the green leaves and the pink clusters of flowers were enveloped in cloud-like Spiritual Energy, very charming.

Coming for a visit with no prior invitation, and not only did they not take even one peach with them, they also sent gifts to the juniors, Jiang Yuan could only thank them repeatedly before finally accepting the gifts.

Now, there were still ten minutes before the side quest was completed. He thought for a mont and said, "Esteed seniors, when I was handling matters at the Market in the Cyan Fish Mountain before, I discovered there were Demon Cultivators lurking in the Market, taking advantage of the Array set up by the Demon Realm Alliance to murder Demon Cultivators.

During the investigation, a senior Demon Cultivator from the Bloodthirst Hall confessed that they were carrying out a Demon Realm invasion plan, intending to infiltrate various locations and establish Teleportation Arrays to transfer the concentrated demonic energy from the Demon Realm and pollute the entire world.

At that ti, I was limited in strength, and the matter involved many, so I eventually sent them to the Demon Realm Alliance, hoping that once the Demon Realm Alliance learned of it, they would consider the entire world and destroy the Demon Realm invasion plan..."

"In the end, there was no result, right?" Elder Lu kindly interrupted him with a smile, "Have you noticed that the Demon Cultivators you sent to the Demon Realm Alliance disappeared without a trace, and no one has jurisdiction over this matter, the exposed Demon Cultivators also vanished. The Demon Realm invasion matter seed as if it was never ntioned."

He was slightly stunned, quickly nodding, "Do the seniors know about this?"

Elder Qi shook his head and replied, "We don’t know, but when you ntioned sending the Demon Cultivators to the Demon Realm Alliance, we guessed the outco. What do you think that place is? Haha, like their ancestors, they are just a bunch of people thinking of ways to benefit themselves, how many would really take responsibility? Moreover, there might even be insiders for the Demon Cultivators within the Demon Realm Alliance."

Indeed, ginger gets spicier as it gets older!

Jiang Yuan nodded in agreent, "Indeed, they have insiders, which is why the whole matter was suppressed. I’m afraid so of the Demon Cultivators who held real power moved their families early to other worlds, selling the sinking Wilderness World to the Demon Race, which is absolutely hateful!"

"That’s wrong," Elder Lu corrected with a smile, "It’s not as simple as moving. Child, your current cultivation Realm is not high enough to grasp the mysteries at higher levels. In reality, for any race’s cultivator to successfully ascend, they must rely on the Power of Heaven and Earth, or rather the Origin of the place they were born.

Without that mysterious and profound force lifting them, no matter how powerful, they can’t ascend to the Immortal Realm. So... the Demon Cultivators intending to sell this world for the Demon Race invasion are definitely not cultivators born here but outsiders.

All roots can be traced back to the Ancient Tis’ war between the Human Race and Demon Race to win, deceitful and cunning Demon Race tried to seize this piece of heaven and earth from our ancestors, causing countless deaths and injuries; to replenish force, they broadly accepted foreign Demon Cultivators to strengthen their power.

The benefit of this was quickly defeating the Human Race, but the downside was also apparent—during the power struggle, relying on the strength of Demon Cultivators from other worlds, after success they couldn’t just expel those helpers. Over ti, naturally, many outsiders got into power.

Anyway, it’s not their birthplace, they can harm as they please as long as they benefit personally."

"So, the target narrows down—once we know which Demon Cultivators holding real power are outsiders, we can identify the culprits most likely colluding with the Demon Realm!" Jiang Yuan imdiately perked up.

Once the courtyard upgraded to Level Eight was capable of accepting side quests, maybe he could even catch the insiders in the Demon Realm Alliance!

The three elders nodded in agreent.

"But you shouldn’t intervene in this matter," Elder Lu advised, "This is for our sect to investigate and handle, your power is too weak, and with the turbulent tis approaching, it’s more important to cultivate well and protect yourself.

If chaos descends, and there’s nowhere safe, you can take this token to Qingfeng Hall. I’ll write to Lin Yao explaining the cause and effect. You don’t need to return this token; you keep it."
