Chapter 264 Elder Qu, Lin Fan's Methods
Lin Fan saw the change in the expression of the man in brocade clothes clearly.
But he walked towards Tianhai Sect with Dugu Xiaoyue with a normal expression.
Not long after, everyone arrived in front of the reception hall of Tianhai Sect.
Before everyone approached, a cold old man's voice came from the reception hall.
"Daoyou Dugu, if it weren't for the fact that we have some friendship, I would have brought the people of the Three Saints Sect's law enforcement team here today. Today is the deadline for your Tianhai Sect. If your Tianhai Sect is still unable to pay the natural materials and treasures stipulated by the Three Saints Sect, don't blame me for following the rules!"
"Elder Qu calm down, my daughter has taken people to look for it. I believe she will be back soon, please give me some more time!"
"Hmph! I gave you some time, but the higher-ups won't give me any time. How do you want me to explain when I go back?"
Elder Qu of the Three Saints Sect snorted coldly, his eyes full of anger. He seemed to be doing business in a fair and impartial manner.
Dugu Xiaoyue, who came with Lin Fan, heard this and her pretty face changed slightly.
She hurriedly shouted: "Wait a minute, Elder Qu. I will give you the natural treasures stipulated by the Three Saints Sect. Please don't embarrass my father!"
As she spoke, she and Lin Fan stepped into the classroom at the same time.
At this time, Dugu Qingfeng, the leader of Tianhai Sect, stood with his hands down with a bitter face, standing in front of an old man with white hair and wearing the clothes of the elders of the Three Saints Sect. He looked like he was willing to be taught a lesson by the other party.
Seeing Dugu Xiaoyue actually step into the reception hall, his expression changed slightly.
"Xiaoyue, why are you back..."
Dugu Qingfeng frowned, and didn't know what to say before he finished speaking.
In the Boundless Sea today, the battle between the Six Demons Island and the Three Saints Sect is getting more and more intense.
As a small sect on Xiaozhi Island and a vassal of the Three Saints Sect, the Tianhai Sect has not directly participated in the war in recent years, but has also contributed a lot to finding cultivation resources for the Three Saints Sect.
Even so, he was still made difficult by the Three Saints Sect.
Doubling the allocation of cultivation resources is still a small matter.
Not long ago, someone had his eyes on Dugu Xiaoyue.
Knowing this, Dugu Qingfeng asked Dugu Xiaoyue to go out and look for cultivation resources.
He wanted Dugu Xiaoyue to take this opportunity to fly away and leave Xiaozhi Island, a place of trouble.
Who would have thought that Dugu Xiaoyue did not abandon him and Tianhai Sect, but came back at this time.
"Dad, don't worry. I will take care of the matter of paying cultivation resources to the Three Saints Sect!" Dugu Xiaoyue explained.
As for Lin Fan, he stood quietly aside and did not speak at all.
Even his aura was completely restrained. At this moment, no one noticed him.
"Haha, since Fairy Dugu said so, then quickly hand in the part that your Tianhai Sect should pay!"
Elder Qu laughed, his expression was very indifferent.
As an elder of the Tiansheng Sect, if the Tianhai Sect can pay the agreed share in full, he will be able to complete his mission after returning.
"Elder Qu, please let me have a look at the list of materials that have been assigned to our Tianhai Sect in recent years."
Dugu Xiaoyue was not in a hurry, but asked Elder Qu for the list of materials.
Elder Qu frowned slightly, but said nothing.
With a wave of his hand, he directly gave a jade slip to Dugu Xiaoyue.
After reading it, Dugu Xiaoyue showed a hint of anger.
This made Lin Fan curious: "Daoyou Dugu, what are you doing..."
"Brother Lin, according to the previous rules. Our Tianhai Sect only needs to find natural materials and treasures worth 5 million middle-grade spirit stones to complete the task. But this list requires us to pay 6 million. This is simply an extra 1 million middle-grade spirit stones!"
One million middle-grade spirit stones are valuable to a cultivator in the Jindan stage.
Tianhai Sect was just a small sect the size of a palm, and the five million middle-grade spirit stones it paid were not a small amount. At this moment, there was an extra one million middle-grade spirit stones out of thin air, which was simply the last straw that broke the camel's back for Tianhai Sect.
"Let me see!"
Lin Fan frowned slightly.
He picked up the jade slip and quickly put it on his forehead.
In an instant, a stream of light quickly fell into his brow, and soon it turned into text in his mind.
Lin Fan read it carefully and did not find anything wrong.
He just waited for him to take the jade slip in his hand, and after secretly scanning it with his clear and bright eyes, he suddenly found that the jade slip in his hand had been tampered with.
In the jade slip, the place where Tianhai Sect originally needed to pay five million middle-grade spirit stones was actually changed to six million middle-grade spirit stones by someone with a powerful divine mind.
If it weren't for Lin Fan's extraordinary clear and bright eyes, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to see such a flaw.
"Interesting, is this someone deliberately making things difficult for Tianhai Sect, or is someone plotting against Elder Qu?"
Lin Fan sneered secretly.
He immediately gave the jade slip to Dugu Xiaoyue.
"Fellow Daoist Dugu, this jade slip does require Tianhai Sect to pay 6 million medium-grade spirit stones. There is no problem. In my opinion, Tianhai Sect should pay in full!" Lin Fan said.
While speaking, Lin Fan secretly sent a message to Dugu Xiaoyue: "Fairy Dugu, this jade slip has been tampered with. If you trust me, leave everything to me."
Dugu Xiaoyue looked normal, but secretly nodded to Lin Fan.
After a pause, Dugu Xiaoyue looked angry, but she had no choice but to send a message to Lin Fan.
"Since Brother Lin has said so, our Tianhai Sect will naturally not say anything more. We will definitely pay the full amount of 6 million medium-grade spirit stones!" Dugu Xiaoyue said.
At this time, Elder Qu was immediately ecstatic.
"Fairy Dugu is so good at knowing how to advance and retreat. That's the best thing. As long as your Tianhai Sect pays the full amount of training materials. I promise that within ten years, you will not be given any tasks to pay the materials for Tianhai Sect!"
Dugu Xiaoyue didn't say much.
He turned his palm and took out a piece of fire gold about the size of a foot.
"Elder Qu, the value of this fire gold is enough for six million middle-grade spiritual stones. Please take a look at it!" Lonely Xiaoyue said.
While on the road, Dugu Xiaoyue had already finished dividing the fire gold distributed to Tianhai Sect.
What was given to Elder Qu at this moment was just one portion.
Even so, it can buy Tianhai Sect ten years of peace, which in her opinion is well worth the money.
"Well, this piece of flame gold is of excellent quality and is indeed worth six million mid-grade spiritual stones. If so, I will keep it on behalf of the Three Saints Sect."
Elder Qu smiled slightly, waved his hand with satisfaction, and put away the Fire Fine Gold.
Afterwards, after giving the Tianhaizong a certificate in person stating that they would not increase their allocation share within ten years, he planned to leave with a satisfied expression.
Seeing this, Lin Fan, who had been silent until now, looked at Elder Qu and smiled.
"Elder Qu, there is something that I still don't understand. Please enlighten me!"
"Haha, fellow Daoist Lin, right? You helped me a lot just now. If you have any questions, just ask." Elder Qu said with a smile.
Although Lin Fan didn't show off his cultivation, he could naturally tell from the fact that he was in the middle stage of pill formation. Lin Fan was still a cultivator in the early stage of pill formation despite his young age.
Moreover, Lin Fan had just persuaded Dugu Xiaoyue to pay the full share allocated by the Three Saints Sect.
In front of everyone, he naturally wanted to give Lin Fan some face.
"Thank you, Elder Qu."
Lin Fan thanked him.
There was a moment of silence, then his lips moved slightly to send a message to Elder Qu.
"Elder Qu, do you still have the jade slip you showed us just now with you?"
"It's natural!"
"If that's the case, why did you take away six million of the five million middle-grade spiritual stones that were originally allocated to Tianhai Sect?"
"This... what do you mean, Fellow Daoist Lin? Didn't you also read the jade slip just now? It is clearly written on it that it is indeed six million middle-grade spiritual stones."
"Really? Since Elder Qu is so sure, he must have been tricked. As long as you hand over these million middle-grade spiritual stones, wouldn't it fall into the hands of others?"
"this……"
Elder Qu's expression changed slightly, and a hint of anger suddenly appeared from the depths of his eyes.
