Chapter 514.
After three rounds of drinking, the atmosphere in the box became even more enthusiastic.
The effects of the earlier disagreement between Wang Chen and the disciple surnamed Chen quickly dissipated into nothingness.
This cultivator from an Immortal Cultivation Family quickly let go of his reserve and wrapped his arms around a charming female cultivator.
This greatly emphasized Wang Chen’s lack of conformity.
Wang Chen neither summoned a kabuki nor talked to others, sitting next to Mou Guangji and quietly drinking and eating food.
Although this was the Netherworld, the wine and food provided by the Loose Pavilion was not at all inferior to All Souls City.
Moreover, the pavilion is set up with special magic formations, and is as warm as spring with an abundance of spiritual energy, making people feel comfortable and cozy in it.
I wish to be drunk for a long time and don’t want to wake up.
The table ate to the cups and plates in a mess, Mou Guangji put down the wine glass, clap his palms to signal the maid to remove the leftovers.
The box of a group of musicians and dancers then retreated out.
Including those waitresses.
When it came time to talk about business, these inner disciples of the West Sea Sect were all seated with their heads in their hands, quite a bit of moralizing.
Mou Guangji opened the door and said, “This time, I’ve summoned everyone here because I have an important matter to discuss with you.”
He rushed to a cultivator sitting on his right and said, “Senior Brother Zhang, bring out the item.”
That Senior Disciple Zhang nodded and fished out a blade of grass from his storage pouch, laying it on the desk table.
Everyone’s eyes instantly focused on it.
This grass had a long stem and leaves, the edges of the blades were covered in sharp teeth, and it flashed with a cold light similar to metal.
It was black all over, with just the tip part of the leaf flushed with a bit of gray.
“Cold Underworld Grass?”
Immediately, someone recognized the origin of this grass!
“That’s right.”
Senior Zhang said proudly, “I picked this when I entered the mountain a few days ago.”
Everyone looked at each other, most of them showing excitement.
The Cold Underworld Grass itself didn’t have much value, and no one would deliberately collect it.
However, this grass had a specialty, which was that it only grew on top of the Cold Underworld Mineral Soil.
Which meant that discovering the Cold Underworld Grass meant discovering the Cold Underworld Ore Deposit – it was nothing more than a matter of rich or poor ore.
The Cold Underworld Iron that was refined from the Cold Underworld Ore was an excellent weapon refining material that could be used to refine second and third order magic weapons, and belonged to the clan’s strategic materials.
The amount of merit that could be exchanged for Cold Underworld Iron was also at the top of all the resources of the Netherworld Realm.
It was no wonder everyone was excited.
“Everyone, don’t get excited yet.”
Mou Guangji said, “Just because Senior Brother Zhang has only discovered a few plants of Cold Underworld Grass so far, it doesn’t mean that he has definitely found a mineral deposit, further searches and exploration are still needed.”
After a pause, he continued, “But the mountains are dangerous, and Master Zhang has no intention of expanding the land by himself, so he wants to cooperate with everyone to find mines and then split the proceeds.”
“Cooperate to find mines?”
Someone couldn’t wait to ask, “What’s the constitution?”
If they really found a Cold Underworld Mine, then even a small share of the spoils would be enough to eat until the oil ran out!
However, there were also people whose complexion was subtle, and a reserved look came out of their eyes.
I’m afraid that the easiest thing in this world to go wrong is cooperation.
Everyone had their own garrisons to garrison, and cooperating with Master Zhang would mean temporarily flooding the turf they had worked so hard to establish, the risks of which were hard to predict.
What I fear the most is that we will end up with nothing after all the hard work.
Such things abounded!
Everyone was calculating, and those who were not quite satisfied with the cooperation proposal put forward by Senior Brother Zhang.
Those cultivators who were interested talked and argued, getting into a face-to-face fight, just short of a big fight.
The uninterested ones watched the action with a light heart.
For example, Wang Chuan.
Wang Dust is planting a field in the Weishaupt, which is not interested in interfering with such a thing.
He is not stupid, how can he not see those so-called children of the famous family’s rejection and contemptuous attitude towards himself.
If he really took the initiative to go up, nine times out of ten, he would be used as cannon fodder and pawns.
Did Wang Dust have enough to eat?
“Senior brother Wang, don’t you want to join?”
Wang Dust wanted to be quiet, but Mou Guangji, who was sitting next to him, couldn’t let him have his wish: “This is a great opportunity.”
In this Senior Brother Mou’s opinion, Senior Brother Zhang had discovered the opportunity and was willing to take it out and share it with everyone, and cooperating in the search for minerals was undoubtedly an excellent thing to do.
If this matter gained success, then the Mutual Alliance would truly be a hit!
“I’m too busy with the Guardian Center, so I won’t be attending.”
Wang Dust politely declined, “Thank you for your kind offer, senior brother.”
“That’s so.”
Mou Guangji’s eyes flashed with a subtle and imperceptible color of displeasure, then he spread his face and smiled, “No matter, there will be another chance next time.”
He looked around, “Senior brother, let’s take a step to talk.”
Wang Chen froze, not understanding what kind of medicine the other party was selling in his gourd.
It was just that he still needed the information provided by Mou Guangji, so he didn’t refuse anymore and followed this senior brother out of the box.
The two of them came outside on the terrace, Mou Guangji looked at Wang Duan with a gleaming gaze, “Senior brother Wang, do you know why senior brother Chen doesn’t like you?”
Wang Dust felt that he wasn’t a spirit stone and couldn’t possibly please everyone, but still asked, “Why?”
Mou Guangji revealed a wry smile, “This senior brother of ours has a very high heart, he has always wanted to worship under Master Changhe, and this time when he went down to the Netherworld to expand his land, he also wanted to earn merits to exchange for qualifications to join the Changhe lineage.”
Wang Chen frowned, “What does this have to do with me?”
“It has a lot to do with it.”
Mou Guangji said, “Senior Brother Wang, it is rumored in the inner sect that you have gained the admiration of the True Lord of the Long River, and this time, if you make enough merits in the Netherworld, then you can be worshipped under the True Lord!”
Wang Chen was speechless.
Who was this rumor spreading.
It couldn’t be said that it wasn’t true that he had gained the admiration of True Lord Changhe, the root cause being the recommendation of Meng Fei, a top genius.
With Wang Dust’s current root bone qualifications, it would be impossible for him to gain the favor of the Changhe Realist.
But there was definitely no problem with entering the Long River lineage.
“There is no such thing.”
Wang Dust shook his head and said, “My root bones are upper-middle, where would I be able to enter the eyes of a True Lord.”
Without an upper upper root bone, only a Jindan true person would be too lazy to teach it!
“Huh?”
Mou Guangji was shocked, “Then what the others said is false?”
Wang Chen looked deeply at the other party, “Worshiping under a True Lord is impossible, entering the Changhe lineage is possible.”
His heart was clear, this senior brother was so enthusiastic about himself, I’m afraid he was influenced by the rumors.
It was just a matter of placing a bet in advance!
“That’s not bad.”
Mou Guangji snapped, “I thought ……”
He turned his words around, “Let’s go back then, it’s not good to come out for too long.”
“No.”
Wang Chen said, “Senior Brother Mou, I still have things to do so I’ll go back first, by the way ……”
He pulled out ten pieces of medium spirit and stuffed it into the other party, “This is my share.”
Mou Guangji was embarrassed, “Senior brother Wang ……”
However Wang Dust was already gone.
