CHAPTER 645: CHAPTER 309: IMMIGRATION SYSTEM, WHAT IS THIS? (PART 3)

This is only natural.

However, what puzzled Song Sect Leader was that the Chongxuan Sect Leader seemed to vaguely imply... he’s not afraid of Jiushan Sect.

Although Chongxuan Sect is also one of the Nine Great Upper Sects, it is merely a Nascent Soul sect, where does this confidence come from?

Among this... perhaps there is the handiwork of the Five Sects.

Thinking of this, Song Sect Leader’s heart tightened, fearing that future troubles in the Hundred Immortals Alliance would only increase.

One wonders if Zheng Fa knows this or not.

And as for Qingmu Sect, how should they position themselves?

...

After aimlessly pondering for a while, Song Sect Leader tapped the table and said to several elders:

"How are things in the sect?"

As soon as this was said, the elders could no longer be concerned about their anger, and their expressions turned increasingly worried.

"The Fu Yao Leaves and evergreen vines in the Medicine Garden... they’ve almost all been destroyed, what’s left is just..."

Listening to this, Song Sect Leader’s heart bled.

Qingmu Sect excels in Alchemy, and the Medicine Garden is their most important treasure trove. Now, calculating this, their accumulated resources are nearly gone with less than one-tenth remaining.

"Due to the scarcity of medicinal materials, our workshop has hardly any visitors nowadays..." Another elder provided no good news either, continuing: "Even if they do come, we can’t fulfill the orders from other sects now."

Song Sect Leader’s expression became increasingly grim, and his heart sank with the news.

He has already emerged from his previous anger, yet he still couldn’t accept the sect’s current miserable state.

It’s true that the foundation of Qingmu Sect remains—at least they still have a group of excellent Pill Masters, right?

But on the other hand, the loss within the sect is too great, and to restore it to its former glory is not easy, even depending on whether there’s a chance or not.

He glanced at the Communication Talisman from Jiushan Sect, technical alliance, profit sharing...

Thoughts swirled in his mind, he suddenly raised his head, and said to the disciple outside the door: "Bring Zhao Jingfan here."

Zhao Jingfan?

The elders in the hall exchanged glances, puzzled.

Zhao Jingfan, upon entering, was even more confused.

"Take a look at this Communication Talisman."

Song Sect Leader handed Zheng Fa’s Communication Talisman to Zhao Jingfan, and after reading it, Zhao Jingfan still didn’t understand why he was being called.

"Do you think we should agree?"

All the elders were taken aback, what was there to question?

Who doesn’t understand the relationship between Zhao Jingfan and Zheng Fa?

Is it possible he could have a second answer?

"Of course we should!"

Sure enough, Zhao Jingfan replied proudly, without a moment’s hesitation.

The elder wanted to speak, but Song Sect Leader interjected:

"Give me a reason."

"I am the reason!"

"..."

The gazes of the elders in the hall were somewhat confused, looking at Zhao Jingfan, listening as Zhao Jingfan candidly said:

"My mother often says that I am dull, my aptitude is just so-so, and my temper is not good either..."

"..."

Song Sect Leader listened.

"But why do I have such a position in the sect now, why?"

Why?

The elders were taken aback, of course because you and Zheng Fa are very close friends, an extraordinary relationship, even communicating with Zheng Fa regularly?

Zhao Jingfan nodded: "Sect Leader, you see clearly, if not for this relationship, what would I be?"

Song Sect Leader twitched his lips, well, you do know how some people in the sect evaluate you...

"Zheng Fa has always been one to not forget old ties. I merely treated him a bit well in the past, and now I can walk unimpeded in the sect... At this time, when Jiushan Sect lacks Alchemy cultivators, if Qingmu Sect could show loyalty..."

With these words, everyone’s expressions changed.

Zhao Jingfan’s reason was simply too vivid and irrefutable.
