‘A year or five?’

This question was so difficult.

“Elder, I want a five-year lifespan-extending pill.”

Han Muye cupped his hands and spoke.

He must be dumb to choose a one-year one.

Su Liang nodded and swept his hand across. All the medicinal packets were taken away.

They went into a storage ring.

This thing seemed to be a standard for rich people.

Han Muye looked at the bronze ring on Su Liang’s finger, his eyes shining.

“I can’t refine a five-year-old lifespan-extending pill yet.”

“However, I can help you find someone who can refine a five-year lifespan-extending pill.”

Looking at the stunned Han Muye, Su Liang smiled and said, “I am going to Mushen City to meet Mu Shi some time later. You can come with me.”

“You know Mu Shi, right? He’s the grandfather of Mu Wan.”

…

After leaving the Waterside Residence and standing by the mountain path, Han Muye felt like a fool.

Why would he choose a five-year lifespan extending pill? Wouldn’t it be better for him to stand at the side and comprehend the refinement technique while Elder Su Liang refined a one-year pill?

Along the way, Han Muye, who was filled with regrets, was a little distracted.

“Senior Brother Han!”

When he heard the call, the two figures in front of him were already close.

They were two inner sect disciples in white martial robes.

The two of them looked excited and cupped their hands at Han Muye. “Luo Cheng and Qin Yi greet Senior Brother Han.”

Han Muye smiled and cupped his hands in return.

These two were the only two outer sect disciples who had sent Mo Yuan off when he left.

At that time, Han Muye had given each of them a fine-quality Cloud Qi Pill.

‘Later, they met Lu Gao and asked about Han Muye’s identity.

“Thank you, Senior Brother Han, for giving us pills that day. It allowed our cultivation to improve greatly and we finally reached the Qi Condensation Realm.”

Luo Cheng looked grateful and cupped his hands at Han Muye again. Qin Yi also bowed.

A fine-quality Cloud Qi Pill was worth 300 spiritual rocks. If one’s cultivation level was stuck at the half-step Qi Condensation Realm, this pill could directly help him break through.

Even if they did not consume this pill and sold it directly, it was still a huge sum of money for the two outer sect disciples.

It seemed that these two were still lucky to have broken through.

Now, both of them were wearing inner sect clothes.

“Congratulations.” Han Muye smiled and raised his hand.

“Senior Brother Han, is Senior Brother Mo Yuan alright?” Luo Cheng asked.

They were considered close to Mo Yuan. Back then, Han Muye had sent Mo Yuan back to his hometown, so they naturally had to ask about the situation.

“Master Mo has returned to his hometown and is living a carefree life.” Han Muye nodded and said, “Since you’ve already broken through and advanced to the inner sect, when are you going to the Sword Pavilion to receive your swords? I’ll help you choose one that’s compatible.”

With Luo Cheng and Qin Yi’s relationship with Mo Yuan, helping them choose a sword was nothing.

Choosing a sword was his forte.

Hearing Han Muye’s words, Luo Cheng and Qin Yi were delighted, then embarrassed.

“Well, Senior Brother, you don’t know. Although we’ve been promoted to the inner sect, we haven’t completed enough merit missions and aren’t qualified to receive swords.”

Qin Yi’s face flushed as he spoke softly.

There were swords kept in the Sword Pavilion. But only those in the top 100 of the outer sect were qualified to receive them.

The top 100 outer sect disciples needed combat strength and cultivation to stand out from tens of thousands of disciples. They also had to accept various challenges.

As for inner sect disciples, theoretically speaking, their cultivation level was at least at the Qi Condensation Realm and their combat strength should be good. They only needed to complete a simple promotion mission and accumulate three merit tokens to qualify to receive the sword.

It shouldn’t be difficult for a Qi Condensation cultivator to earn three merit tokens, right?

Han Muye did not think that it was difficult.

Seeing Han Muye’s gaze, the two of them felt even more awkward.

The Sword Pavilion’s Sword Caretaker, who could casually throw out fine-quality Cloud Qi Pills, did not see highly of three merit tokens.

However, for people like them who had only broken through with the help of pills, the inner sect mission was really difficult.

“Ahem, Senior Brother Luo Tian from the inner sect has issued a demon hunting mission. We’ll go and apply for it. I believe we’ll have enough merit tokens when we return. When the time comes, we’ll go to the Sword Pavilion to receive our swords.”

Qin Yi coughed lightly and looked up.

After reaching the Qi Condensation Realm, their lives had changed drastically.

All of this was because of their fate with Han Muye.

“Luo Tian?” Hearing Qin Yi’s words, Han Muye frowned and said in a low voice, “Is he the son of the inner sect deacon who cultivates the Golden Vein Sword Technique?”

“It’s that Senior Brother Luo.” Luo Cheng looked at Han Muye and said softly, “Senior Brother Han, do you know him?”

His heart skipped a beat. Han Muye didn’t look happy.

Luo Tian’s demon hunting mission.

Han Muye frowned.

Luo Tian had once gone to the Sword Pavilion to exchange for a sword, and it was that demonic sword.

This sword was now on the third floor of the Sword Pavilion, and even the mission book had been taken. Luo Tian did not ask for it.

When Luo Tian exchanged his sword, Han Muye had sensed his abnormality and reported it to the Sword Pavilion Elder.

Unfortunately, the elder did not take this matter to heart.

Now, Luo Tian had issued a demon hunting mission?

Looking at Han Muye’s expression, Luo Cheng and Qin Yi looked at each other.

“Senior Brother Han, but what’s wrong between you and Senior Brother Luo? Senior Brother Luo is quite arrogant and has a bad reputation in the sect…”

Luo Cheng spoke nervously.

Han Muye shook his head and looked at the two of them. “Do you believe me?”

They both nodded quickly.

“If you believe me, don’t accept this mission.” Han Muye lowered his voice. “The Myriad Sword Elder that is exterminating the Three Qin Sword Sect is a good friend of Master Mo.”

“If you go there, you can easily obtain some mission merits.”

The Myriad Sword Elder was Mo Yuan’s close friend!

Luo Cheng and Qin Yi widened their eyes.

The most popular person on the Nine Mystic Mountain was naturally the unknown guest elder, Myriad Sword Patriarch.

He had killed an Earth Realm expert with a single strike. This person’s powerful and mysterious strength was shocking.

He did not expect this person to have such a relationship with Mo Yuan!

With the guest elder who could kill an Earth Realm expert, if one was not a fool, they would know which to choose.

Luo Cheng and Qin Yi hurriedly bowed. “Thank you for your guidance, Senior Brother!”

Han Muye nodded, a smile on his face. “When you reach there, there will be a surprise.”

With that, he left.

‘A surprise?’

Qin Yi and Luo Cheng looked confused.

“Junior Brother Luo, shall we go to the Three Qin Sword Sect?” Qin Yi asked softly as he watched Han Muye leave.

“If I don’t cozy up to the guest elder, do I have to cozy up to a second-generation profligate?” Luo Cheng laughed and said, “But shouldn’t I tell Senior Brother Tang Ming about this?”

Qin Yi nodded. “Senior Brother Tang Ming is one of the top 200 experts in the inner sect. If he’s willing to go, we have greater reassurance.”

…

When Han Muye returned to the Sword Pavilion, he saw a small table at the entrance from afar.

Apart from Huang Six, Lin Shen, and Lu Gao, there was also a bald man sitting there.

Zhao Pu.

“You came back at mealtime. No one asked you to stay for dinner?” Huang Six saw Han Muye return and shouted with a smile.

Han Muye walked over and sat beside the empty seat Lu Gao had given him.

“Senior Brother Zhao, I’m afraid you’re not used to the food in our outer sect.”

Han Muye smiled and said as he ate.

Zhao Pu reached out and took the wine gourd that Huang Six had placed on the table. He poured half a bowl and drank it. Then he said, “Who hasn’t been in the outer sect before?”

Huang Six finished his gourd of wine in one go.

Zhao Pu had finished at least 80% of them alone.

He also finished 80% of the food.

For someone who cultivated body tempering skills, it was indeed different.

He could eat and drink well.

When they were full, everyone dispersed, leaving Lu Gao to clean up the mess.

“Brother Huang, don’t worry. Let Brother Han watch during the sect gathering. If sister-in-law competes well, I guarantee that she can get into the top ten.” Zhao Pu patted Huang Six’s shoulder, making the corner of his mouth twitch.

However, his expression was smiling like a chrysanthemum blooming.

“I’m relieved to hear Senior Brother Zhao’s words.” Huang Six heaved a sigh of relief and shook Zhao Pu’s hand.

Zhao Pu laughed, turned, and staggered away.

Han Muye sent Zhao Pu down the stone steps. Zhao Pu staggered a few steps and suddenly stopped.

“Brother Han, Master gave you the White Tiger Scroll, right?”
