Chapter 44 - Sect Leader's Trouble


Immortal-Enchanting Island Sect Leader Feng Xiangtian was a mid-stage Tribulation Crossing cultivator. At this time, he was sitting in the Sect Leader's room on the top floor of the 'Penglai Pavilion' accompanied by several elders.

The people inside were worried about the current situation of the cultivation realm. The Green Light Sect had continuously annihilated several devil path sects for more than a year. It had completely broken the balance between the two paths since hundreds of years.The strong tide had stirred the whole cultivation realm and there would be no peace in the future. Some small right path sects have been repeatedly attacked by the devil paths, and more and more sects would be involved as the time went by.

"It seems that the chaos will be inevitable. Although our Immortal-Enchanting Island is the first major faction, I'm afraid we won't be able to avoid the confrontation, and so we need to be prepared. Elder Fei, Elder Guan, Elder Huang. The foremost people in charge of Myriad Fragrant Garden, Alchemy Pavilion, and Treasure Refining Pavilion are very important for our sect to deal with this catastrophe. Various kinds of medicinal pills and magic treasures need to be prepared. Once turmoil involves our Immortal-Enchanting Island, we should be able to deal with it properly. After the chaos is over, it is estimated that the entire cultivation realm would re-rank according to the future strength. The prestige of our sect as the leading faction had lasted for more than a thousand years and will not be allowed to be destroyed in our generation." Feng Xiangtian had a dignity appearance. When the words came out, the two eyes were focusing and swept back and forth across the three elders.

"We'll do our best!" Said the three elders in unison. But when Elder Fei, who was in charge of Myriad Fragrant Garden said this, it seemed a little underpowered. Feng Xiangtian's eyes fell on him and asked, "Is there any problem Elder Fei? If so, say it right now. It's the matter of our sect's ups and downs. You can't be sloppy about it, if we make a slight mistake, we might even become the sect's eternal sinners."

Elder Fei looked at the two elders around him and smiled wryly, "There are some difficulties... Myriad Fragrant Garden is known as the best spiritual garden in the realm. It may be that there are not many spiritual plants to make up for the good medicines. Good plants are not only slow to grow, it's even more difficult to take care of. If Elder Guan's Alchemy Pavilion increased in usage, I'm afraid my side won't be able to afford the demand."

After the words had just finished, Elder Guan, who was emitting a medicinal herbs smell, stood up and shouted out loud, "Surnamed Fei! What is the meaning of you saying that? Do you want my Alchemy Pavilion to reduce the amount of spiritual plants used? I tell you, Don't even think about it!"

Elder Fei was not upset by Elder Guan, but he shook his head with a smile. Elder Guan's temper was infamous on the Immortal-Enchanting Island. He had always loved alchemy above other things, if someone dares to obstruct his alchemy, he would decisively fight that person. In Immortal-Enchanting Island, he didn't fear anyone on the island. In the whole cultivation realm, he even got the title of 'Mad Pill'. It was estimated that nobody could best him in the alchemy of the current era. Realizing his temperament, Elder Fei didn't dare to say anything more.

"I have the same opinion," Said Feng Xiangtian, he continued, "Adding the disciples that have to be dispatched to search for wild spiritual plants, Myriad Fragrant Garden will also have to deploy additional staff to increase the output of Spiritual plants. The sale of mid-grade and top-grade medicinal pills and herbs by the sect will be stopped completely, we need to ensure that our Immortal-Enchanting Island has additional stock for an emergency. In addition, I have informed Elder Quan who manages the sect's provision department. The spirit stones consumptions for disciples below the Core Formation stage will be increased by five times, as for the disciples at the Core Formation stage and above will be doubled to improve their growth as soon as possible. Elder Jin who manages the spirit stone mine will need to increase the mining output of the spirit stones, and Elder Qin, who manages the common goods will need to frequently send back the spirit stones profit from the business outside.

After hearing the explanation, the three elders nodded. Just then, they heard the sound of two people going upstairs on the outside. Someone shouted from outside the door, "Disciple Cheng Genqing reporting to Sect Leader."

The people inside recognized it was the voice of Cheng Genqing, the direct disciple of Elder Qin who manages the common goods, they wondered why he came here to meet the Sect Leader. What is happening outside? Feng Xiangtian frowned and shouted, "Come in."

Cheng Genqing was leading in an ordinary-looking young man. The eyes of the Sect Leader and the three elders fell on the latter. He was not a disciple of the Immortal-Enchanting Island. Even more strangely, when the people looked at him, they couldn't see his cultivation. This young man was naturally Yue Qianchou.

"Disciple Cheng Genqing greets Sect Leader and the three elders." Cheng Genqing saluted. Yue Qianchou also followed the ceremony, "Loose Cultivator Yue Qianchou, greets Sect Leader and the three elders."

"Cheng Genqing, what business do you have with me?" Said Feng Xiangtian, but his eyes were still staring at Yue Qianchou. When he heard that young man was a loose cultivator, he almost thought that he was mistaken, the other three elders also showed the same doubts.

Cheng Genqing reached out and touched the storage bag hung on his waist, then respectfully said, "Sect Leader, disciples have transported the spirit stones back to the island, and Master ordered me to bring Yue Qianchou to meet Sect Leader."

"Your master told you to bring him?" Said Feng Xiangtian with a strange look.

Cheng Genqing quickly reached out to explain the purpose of bringing Yue Qianchou. After listening to him, Feng Xiangtian and the three elders looked at each other. Command tokens are items that have been used by seniors in Immortal-Enchanting Island. The purpose was to indicate identity and to give an opportunity for the descendant of the token holder to join the Immortal-Enchanting Island. This rule had been set for thousands of years. Yue Qianchou was the third person to bring back the token.

The Immortal-Enchanting Island originally had a total of three hundred special tokens. It was said that the three hundred tokens held a secret if collected as one, but no one knew exactly what secret it was. This object later became a status symbol for the elders. As the years changed, they all went on.

For various reasons, the remaining tokens of the entire Immortal-Enchanting Island were now less than a half, so there was a bit trouble. Some people were qualified to be the elders based on their merits and strength. However, some of them didn't inherit the token to represent the elder status, added by the current sect couldn't imitate the Immortal-Enchanting tokens, it made the token became more precious.

The rule that was originally established so that the descendant of the token holder could join the Immortal-Enchanting Island. Later, because the number of tokens was getting smaller and smaller, it was changed to only recognize the tokens, regardless of the holders. Today, the token brought by Yue Qianchou would undoubtedly allow an elder to reduce the embarrassing situation.

Feng Xiangtian took over the token in Cheng Genqing's hand. After careful checking, the three elders nodded slightly and confirmed that this was indeed a command token. In the eyes of the three elders, an unstoppable fiery glow suddenly appeared. The three of them were the leading elders in their fields but had no token. In fact, not to mention the three of them, some of the older elders also didn't possess the token.

The gaze of the three elders fell into Feng Xiangtian's eyes, his heart suddenly froze, his head was aching, in the heart thought that the situation was not good. He had not seen such a thing happened for hundreds of years, the current condition of the sect appeared in his mind. The immortal-Enchanting Island had about 202 elders, but the ones without token were estimated more than 50 elders. If the Sect Leader were to casually give this token to a certain elder, he would offend more than 50 other elders at the same time. The Sect Leader would suffer some losses.

Feng Xiangtian took very seriously of this small command token, it would be a big deal if he handled it wrong. To put it bluntly, things could get bigger and bigger, this might be able to bring the Sect Leader down. There was a well-known incident. The first Sect Leader of the Immortal-Enchanting Island was taken down because of his injustice. What the hell are you coming here for young man? You're bringing a harm with this thing! Thinking that, Feng Xiangtian could only stare at Yue Qianchou and didn't know what to say.

Yue Qianchou wasn't aware of the big trouble he had brought to the Sect Leader of the first rank sect of the right path. Seeing Feng Xiangtian's unpleasant expression looking at him, his heart beat faster, he said in his heart, " Shit! What is this old fogey up to? Does he want to renege on the promise?"
