After transmigrating, I cultivated immortality by smelling the scent.

Chapter 109 What a cunning Luo Dalin!

Soon, Ye Xiaobai's spiritual power returned to its peak. The Purple Flame Thunder Leopard's advancement was complete, and it was time to return to the sect.

Afterwards, Ye Xiaobai flew back to his sect on his sword.

……

On the other side, after recuperating for a while, Mu Beifeng's body had almost recovered. He quickly got up and expressed his gratitude to Zhou Wenlei and the others: "This time, thanks to Elder Zhou and Elder Luo's timely support, otherwise Beifeng's life would probably be in danger!"

"Yes, yes! We were able to survive this time thanks to the two elders!" a White Tiger Sect disciple said hurriedly.

"Of course, we also owe a great debt to Senior Brother Mu for risking his life to protect us!" some other White Tiger Sect disciples added.

"Yes, yes!"

"I didn't do much to help when I came here, but thankfully Ye Xiaobai's superior antidote pill, and the Thousand Gold Vine that Lao Luo and I brought back in time, will help you detoxify!" Zhou Wenlei quickly explained.

"Then I would like to thank Elder Luo again for saving my life!" Mu Beifeng said respectfully, looking at Luo Dalin.

"When I get back later, if I run into Senior Brother Ye, I'll definitely thank him properly!" Mu Beifeng added.

"By the way, I wonder how many spirit stones this Thousand Gold Vine cost? It must have been quite expensive, right? I bet it must have cost at least a hundred thousand spirit stones?" Zhou Wenlei asked with a face full of curiosity.

"Haha, it only cost 90,000 spirit stones!" Luo Dalin replied casually, a slight smile playing on his lips, revealing a hint of pride.

It was as if he was showing off to Zhou Wenlei that he had gotten a great deal.

"Hey, why is it so cheap? Could it be fake? But that doesn't make sense either, the detoxification effect seems normal!" Zhou Wenlei asked in confusion.

"Bei Feng, are you sure the poison in your body is gone?" Zhou Wenlei asked Mu Bei Feng with concern.

Mu Beifeng checked himself again, and only after confirming that everything was alright did he say, "Elder Zhou, I'm really fine!"

After hearing Mu Beifeng's words, Zhou Wenlei finally felt completely relieved.

"Hahaha! Actually, Ye Xiaobai is a fourth-grade alchemist in the Alchemist Alliance. Therefore, the original price of the Thousand Gold Vine was 150,000 spirit stones, but Miaodanfang only charged me 90,000. Thanks to Ye Xiaobai, I enjoyed a 40% discount!" Luo Dalin said with a smile.

"What? Ye Xiaobai is already a fourth-grade alchemist!" Everyone exclaimed in surprise.

"I heard some time ago that Ye Xiaobai was only a third-grade alchemist, but I didn't expect him to be a fourth-grade alchemist now. His progress is so rapid!"

"It seems we really can't underestimate Ye Xiaobai!" Zhou Wenlei said calmly.

"Yes, Junior Brother Ye has helped me so much this time, I will definitely thank him properly when I get back!" Mu Beifeng said firmly.

"By the way, Elder Luo, I have 90,000 spirit stones for you. I bought the Thousand Gold Vine to cure my poison, so how could I let Elder Luo spend so much?" Mu Beifeng continued.

"Oh, no need. These spirit stones are nothing. Consider them a congratulatory gift from your elder to celebrate your Core Formation!" Luo Dalin directly refused Mu Beifeng's spirit stones.

"Thank you very much, Elder Luo!" Mu Beifeng said gratefully.

When everyone heard that Elder Luo had given such a generous gift to the younger generation, they all immediately showed envious eyes.

Luo Dalin also looked completely unconcerned.

Upon seeing this, Zhou Wenlei immediately pulled Luo Dalin aside and whispered, "Old Luo, when did you become so generous? You don't even care about 90,000 spirit stones?"

Luo Dalin smiled slightly, revealing a sly look, and replied softly, "Hehe, Old Zhou, you wouldn't understand."

"Mu Beifeng is a junior after all, how can I accept his spirit stones? But it's alright, I can go back and ask the sect leader for reimbursement, since these spirit stones were used for his disciples!"

After saying that, Luo Dalin couldn't help but let out a smug, wicked laugh.

Upon hearing this, Zhou Wenlei burst into laughter, praising repeatedly, "Hahaha, what a cunning Luo Dalin! I admire him!"

After chatting for a few more minutes, the two returned to the group.

"By the way, Elder Zhou, come this way, I have something to tell you!" Mu Beifeng said with a serious expression as Zhou Wenlei walked over.

Afterwards, Mu Beifeng and Zhou Wenlei arrived at a secluded and quiet place. He lowered his voice and said to Zhou Wenlei, "Elder Zhou, there is a high possibility that members of the Zhao family are hiding among the enemies who are besieging us this time!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Wenlei was stunned and exclaimed, "What? How could the Zhao family be involved?" He simply couldn't believe the news.

Mu Beifeng continued, "When they attacked me, someone used the Earth-rank technique 'Raging Rock Waves Technique.' Although that person wasn't very skilled at it, I was still able to recognize it."

"You should know that I have previously exchanged skills with members of the Zhao family and have been quite impressed by this technique. Moreover, this technique is a secret method passed down within the Zhao family and is never passed on to outsiders. Only members of the Zhao family can practice it!"

As Mu Beifeng recalled the scene, he explained his reasoning to Zhou Wenlei. However, at this moment, he was also puzzled—why would the Zhao family collude with the Qingyun Sect?

“Okay, I understand. Don’t mention this to anyone until everything is completely certain!” Zhou Wenlei said quickly.

"I understand, Elder Zhou!" Mu Beifeng replied immediately.

"Alright, pack up! Let's return to the White Tiger Sect!" Zhou Wenlei said loudly as he returned to the group after ending his conversation with Mu Beifeng.

"Understood!" everyone replied.

Soon, everyone returned to the White Tiger Sect, and the journey was relatively smooth.

After returning to the White Tiger Sect, everyone parted ways. Zhou Wenlei still took Mu Beifeng to see Sect Master Han Chuanming.

……

Lingyun Peak Council Hall.

Han Chuanming paced back and forth in the spacious and magnificent hall with great anxiety. His usually steady and unwavering steps now appeared somewhat flustered and uneasy.

When Han Chuanming learned that his beloved disciple Mu Beifeng had been attacked by the Qingyun Sect, a strong sense of worry welled up in his heart.

He originally intended to go to the rescue himself, but he was entangled in the complicated affairs of the sect, which prevented him from leaving.

Left with no other choice, they had to send their prized disciple Zhou Wenlei with a group of followers to support Mu Beifeng.

However, as time passed, no new and definite news came back, which made Han Chuanming increasingly worried and restless.

After all, Mu Beifeng was not only his direct disciple, but also regarded as the only candidate to succeed him as the sect leader in the future.

If anything untoward were to happen during this crisis, the consequences would be unimaginable! Just thinking about this made Han Chuanming feel as if his heart was being torn apart, and he secretly prayed to God to bless his beloved disciple so that he could return safely.

Fortunately, good news soon arrived: Mu Beifeng and the others had successfully returned to the sect. Han Chuanming was finally able to put his mind at ease and no longer had to worry or be anxious.

Soon he would be able to see his apprentice, and Han Chuanming could finally sit down and enjoy a cup of spiritual tea.
