Wu Wang agreed to temporarily stay as the sect master for half a month. In the northwest of the Human Realm, streams of light flew across the sky as two groups of about thirty immortal cultivators each began their journey back. After flying for a while, they each waited on the clouds because the two people at the back were still talking.

Ji Mo, dressed in white, bowed to Ling Xiaolan and smiled, "Thank you for taking care of me during our visit to the Kingdom of Women. I will definitely visit the Mysterious Female Sect in the future."

"Not welcome," Ling Xiaolan glanced to the side and said indifferently, "You should go to the Kingdom of Women more often. There is a national teacher waiting for you there."

Ji Mo immediately showed a smile full of charm.

Ling Xiaolan snorted, "I should have suggested to Brother Xiong to throw you into the Pregnancy Spirit Pool for a night."

"Uh, about that," Ji Mo's forehead was filled with black lines, "We shouldn't pollute the sacred pool of the Kingdom of Women... Your idea is dangerous, Fairy."

Ling Xiaolan transmitted her voice, "Remember to remind your elders not to always look at me with the eyes of a daughter-in-law."

"I know, I know, Fairy, you don't have to worry too much," Ji Mo laughed, "I know Brother Xiong's feelings for you. He is talented and intelligent..."

Clang!

Ling Xiaolan drew her precious sword half an inch out of its sheath, causing Ji Mo to tremble and quickly change the subject.

"Fairy, have you heard if Brother Xiong has arrived in the Human Realm? Has he found a place to cultivate?"

"I don't know," Ling Xiaolan's face relaxed slightly as she frowned and pondered.

Ji Mo: You said you didn't care!

Ling Xiaolan said, "But I am a little worried about Brother Xiong. The situation in the Human Realm is unstable. Many major immortal sects and demon sects seem to be stirring up trouble and want to have a debate between immortals and demons."

Ji Mo was somewhat unconvinced, "What is there to debate about? One absorbs pure qi, the other absorbs impure qi. One lives on the top of the mountain, the other lives in the cracks of the earth. They are all created to protect the cultivation methods of the human race. They have opened their doors based on their cultivation methods."

Ling Xiaolan said, "But the cultivation methods of the demon cultivators do have some influence on their mental state."

"Demon cultivators can cultivate multiple bodies, which gives them a higher deterrent power when facing fierce beasts compared to cultivators of the same realm," Ling Xiaolan smiled, "Has Young Master Ji taken a fancy to any of the demon women from a certain demon sect?"

"No, I just think that recently, the immortal sects have shown signs of suppressing the demon sects, which will weaken the strength of the Human Realm," Ji Mo said.

"In any case, it's best for Brother Xiong to avoid getting involved with the demon cultivators," Ling Xiaolan said mysteriously, turned around, cupped her hands, and flew towards her own immortal cultivators.

Ji Mo smiled, "When will Fairy ascend to immortality?"

"Probably in three or four years," Ling Xiaolan said without turning her head, her figure surrounded by white mist, hiding among the first group of immortal cultivators who went to support the Kingdom of Women.

Ji Mo turned around, his expression becoming serious, and flew towards his own aunt.

"Aunt, in the future, please don't mention anything about how compatible Ling Fairy and I are. We are really not compatible."

Immortal Ji Yue couldn't help but roll her eyes and scolded, "Ji Mo, it's impossible between you and the national teacher. Her lifespan is only a few hundred years."

"Between her and me, it's just a beautiful dream," Ji Mo looked deeply in the direction of the northwest.

Ji Yue couldn't help but roll her eyes again and scolded, "You really love to daydream! Come back home with me and be punished! Watch me report you properly this time!"

"Hehe."

......

At the same time.

In an elegantly decorated warm pavilion, Wu Wang wore a mask and leaned on the bed. He turned his head and opened his mouth. A jade hand reached over from the side, holding a half-foot-long wooden stick and carefully inserted it into a cherry-shaped spirit fruit.

The owner of the jade hand, a graceful and slender girl who lightly tapped Wu Wang's leg with a wooden hammer, was also an immortal cultivator. They were both at the Returning to Origin Realm. They were dressed in a uniform black veil dress, which were recently recruited disciples of the Bear Hug Clan.

In the corner, a female cultivator held a pipa and played it gently.

In front of the window, a girl slowly pulled the curtain to create a gentle breeze.

Wu Wang felt a slight emotion in his heart, as if he had returned to the life at home. Being the sect master was not bad either. It just easily dampened his fighting spirit.

"Yes, did I overthink it?"

The warm pavilion was located in the most beautiful part of the valley, with a waterfall and a pond on one side, and a medicinal garden and an orchard on the other side. There were several layers of formations surrounding it, ensuring a high level of safety.

Wu Wang was summarizing his observations over the past half month. He could already roughly judge that the Great Elder and the Mysterious Elder, the father-daughter pair, supported him to become the sect master not to create a puppet sect master.

There were three main reasons for this.

First, the Great Elder had more influence in the Demon Sect than the former sect master.

Second, this demon sect had a loose structure and no ambitions for expansion. Most of its disciples only focused on cultivating or going out on adventures. The sect's income mainly relied on the selfless contributions of its disciples.

Third, the unique atmosphere of the Human Realm.

The Human Realm was surrounded by the power of the Sky God. There was also a long belt of fierce beasts along the land borders of the Human Realm, which would attack the Human Realm every few years. Since the birth of the Human Realm, it had been developing internally while resisting the attacks of the fierce beasts.

In this atmosphere, a unified external ideology was formed.

The sect was similar to a school, and the cultivators in the sect had a sense of belonging to the human race, reverence for the Human Emperor, and a sense of honor in defending the border and killing enemies. This weakened their sense of belonging to the sect.

Of course, human hearts were complicated, and the Human Realm was gradually changing.

But this demon sect clearly did not keep up with the times. They neither claimed territory nor seized resources. They pursued the carefree and free-spirited nature of demon cultivation and looked down upon the hypocritical behavior of the immortal sects...

They were quite cute.

"Sect Master! Sect Master!"

A few shouts came from outside the attic, and Wu Wang raised his hand slightly. Several girls bowed and retreated behind the screen.

The attic door opened, and a group of figures rushed in, bowing and saluting in front of the bed.

"Greetings, Sect Master!"

"You may rise."

Wu Wang stretched and sat up, his eyes still drowsy as he said, "Are you all ready?"

One of the elders, Wang, spoke loudly, "We are ready! We have refined a total of three hundred high-quality pills of twelve different types, totaling three thousand six hundred pills! As you requested, we have found male disciples who are currently stuck at a bottleneck in their cultivation. There are four in the True Immortal Realm, eight in the Immortal Realm, and six in the Ascending to Immortality Realm! The Great Elder said to let them be your personal guards."

One of the strong men, who carried a long spear and had a bald head, saluted and said loudly, "Sect Master, as long as I am alive, I will never let you down!"

Wu Wang nodded with a smile and said, "I have only been cultivating for a few years, and my cultivation level is still low. In the future, if I go out, I will trouble all of you."

The expressions of the four strong men were different. Half of them were somewhat dissatisfied, and the other half responded, "Sect Master, you're too polite."

"Sect Master, don't say that. We are happy to be your personal guards," another strong man said.

"Heh, hehe."

Wu Wang sighed lightly in his heart. It was necessary for him to subdue these demon cultivators and make them loyal to the sect. It was also a necessary task as the sect master.

It was quite interesting.

"Everyone," Wu Wang said, "we will leave for the town later. There is no need to make a big fuss. The four strongest experts will accompany me. We are going to do business, not cause trouble. After I finish my investigation, I will send a message back and ask a few of you to come and help."

The demon cultivators responded, without any objections. The other demon cultivators retreated, leaving only the two elders and the four experts in the True Immortal Realm.

Among the four guards, the bald man with the long spear had the highest cultivation level, and Wu Wang also had some impression of him.

"What is your name?" Wu Wang asked.

"Yang Wudi!"

"What cultivation path are you on?"

"The path of spear cultivation!"

Wu Wang nodded with a smile. He asked the other three experts for their names: Zhang Moshan, Fang Renye, and Feng Tian.

The youngest was also Yang Wudi, who was only... two thousand years old.

He said, "We are not only here to sell pills. We may have conflicts with others later. You must be vigilant. If we fail this time, it will damage the reputation of our sect."

The four strong men's eyes were filled with burning determination.

After a while, a wooden boat slowly rose into the air. Inside the boat sat two elders, four guards, and Wu Wang, the current sect master. Wu Wang sat at the bow of the boat, pondering while taking out a jade talisman to write and draw on it.

He also needed to cultivate and couldn't always go out.

The two elders accompanying him, one from the Transmission Hall and the other from the Treasure Pavilion, were both experienced and quick-witted. They often interacted with the outside world and were at the True Immortal Realm.

One of them was the Elder Wang who received Wu Wang when he first joined the demon sect. He had interrupted his seclusion due to the sect master's tribulation and was not in a hurry to continue breaking through.

This time, Wu Wang was going to teach them how to... acquire resources.

"Elder, within a radius of ten thousand miles, there are a total of thirty-two towns with more demon cultivators. Which one should we go to?"

Wu Wang pondered for a moment and said, "Go to the largest one without any obvious sect influence."

The two elders exchanged glances and thought for a while before coming up with the best solution.

Pu Gou Mountain.

The wooden boat flew in the air for two hours, passing by many demon sect gates along the way. Since the demon sect needed to absorb impure qi, they would place their gates in valleys, rifts, and abysses. If they could accompany the veins of the earth, it would be a blessed land for demon cultivators. Originally, there weren't so many rifts, but a high-level cultivator could easily create them with a few strikes.

The sect's headquarters, the Great Elder's thatched hut.

"Great Elder! Something incredible has happened!"

Several elders hurriedly arrived, making the Great Elder, who was reading the Eight Strategies, a little impatient.

"What's wrong now? Did the immortal sect come to attack us again?"

The elders quickly apologized and said, "The Sect Master just sent a message with a jade talisman. Over there..."

"Can't sell the pills?"

The Great Elder narrowed his eyes and smiled, "The Sect Master had good intentions, and we can't be ungrateful. Although we wasted a lot of spirit herbs on several thousand pills, we can keep them for our own use."

"They're all sold out! All three thousand six hundred pills are sold out!"

One of the elders shouted, "The Sect Master asked us to pack up and move the available inventory quickly. The market is huge, and the demand exceeds the supply. If we can refine more, we should do so quickly. We can also buy large quantities at low prices from other towns! Elder Wang sent the message, please take a look."

The Great Elder furrowed his brows and took the jade talisman, carefully reading it several times. His face was full of confusion.

"This! Stock up!"

The Great Elder's grass hut.

"Great Elder! It's amazing!"

Several elders hurriedly arrived, making the Great Elder, who was reading the Eight Strategies, a little impatient.

"What's wrong now? Did the immortal sect come to attack us again?"

The elders quickly apologized and said, "The Sect Master just sent a message with a jade talisman. Over there..."

"Can't sell the pills?"

The Great Elder narrowed his eyes and smiled, "The Sect Master had good intentions, and we can't be ungrateful. Although we wasted a lot of spirit herbs on several thousand pills, we can keep them for our own use."

"They're all sold out! All three thousand six hundred pills are sold out!"

One of the elders shouted, "The Sect Master asked us to pack up and move the available inventory quickly. The market is huge, and the demand exceeds the supply. If we can refine more, we should do so quickly. We can also buy large quantities at low prices from other towns! Elder Wang sent the message, please take a look."

The Great Elder furrowed his brows and took the jade talisman, carefully reading it several times. His face was full of confusion.

"This! Stock up!"
