Chapter 314 Nine Nether Blood Tiger

Yunlan Mountain.

Tianqingmen.

Monthly Salary Hall.

Hou Dongsheng came to collect his monthly salary for three years, but now the manager of the monthly salary hall has been changed.

Although this person has only cultivated in the Qi Refining Period, he appears to be extremely smart, capable, and mature.

Hou Dongsheng kept smiling and explained his intention with the grace of his senior.

After this person listened, he began to look up the information, taking advantage of the gap between him and the information.

Hou Dongsheng chatted with him about his family affairs: "I'm a stranger to you, Taoist friend, and I don't know how to call him?"

"Li Changsheng."

"How long have you been here, Fellow Daoist Li?"

"More than a year." Li Changsheng replied.

"No wonder it's so strange."

"Senior Hou, how many years has it been since you came to collect your monthly payment?"

"More than three years."

"No wonder..." Li Changsheng put down a large stack of information in his hand.

He turned around and rummaged around on the bookshelf behind him, and soon found a large old book on the bookshelf, and finally found Hou Dongsheng's roster.

"Senior Hou, you haven't come to receive your monthly salary for three years and four months." Li Changsheng said with a look of astonishment.

"Yes, according to the sect rules, as a foundation-building monk, I can receive three Yuanrong Pills and 200 spirit stones every month. The three Yuanrong Pills can be converted into spirit stones for me. After conversion, I have

1,100 spiritual stones. Now I haven’t received my monthly salary for 40 months. I received 44,000 spiritual stones at one time. Please convert it into 440 medium-grade spiritual stones for me. I’m sorry, little friend.” Hou Dongsheng’s face was full of warmth.

, said kindly in the tone of an elder.

Li Changsheng: "According to the sect's rules, you won't even get a single spiritual stone."

"What!?" Hou Dongsheng almost popped his eyes out.

"What sect rules? Am I not the foundation-building elder of Tianqing Sect?"

"You are."

"Then why don't you get a monthly salary?"

Li Changsheng pulled out the Tianqing Sect Rules and said loudly: "Article 36 of the Sect Rules, all members of our Tianqing Sect must complete at least one Tianqing Sect task every year, otherwise their monthly salary will be cancelled."

"You fart! I, Tianqing Sect Jindan Zhenren, Yuanying Patriarch, have been in seclusion for at least several years. Are you also canceling his monthly salary?"

"Senior Hou... please be patient. If Master Jindan really doesn't have a monthly salary, they receive an annual salary. According to the sect rules, Master Jindan can receive an annual salary if he completes a sect mission within ten years; as for Nascent Soul,

The Patriarch doesn’t even have a monthly salary, so they can get whatever they want, and they can take whatever they want from the entire Tianqing Sect’s resources.”

Hou Dongsheng: "..."

"Senior Hou, you are a senior in the Foundation Establishment Stage, so this is implemented in accordance with Rule 36 of the Sect Rules. If you are a monk in the Qi Refining Stage, you need to complete a sect mission every month, otherwise your monthly salary will be cancelled."

"Farewell!" Hou Dongsheng waved his sleeves and left.

Yunlan Mountain.

The residence of the Xuanyue family.

Family ancestral hall.

Members of the Xuanyue family receive their monthly salary at Zhenbao Hall.

Three years have passed, and the shopkeeper of Zhenbaotang is still an acquaintance and greets Hou Dongsheng with a smile on his face.

"What a rare visitor. Isn't this the son-in-law of Sanfang's family? You finally have time to come to me to receive your monthly salary?" the shopkeeper said jokingly.

Hou Dongsheng smiled awkwardly, clasped his fists and bowed: "The Tianqing Sect rules for foundation-building monks, if they do not perform the sect's tasks within a year, their monthly salary will be cancelled. I wonder if our Xuanyue family has this rule?"

The shopkeeper chuckled: "Don't worry, our Xuanyue family doesn't have such a rule."

"That's great."

Hou Dongsheng rubbed his hands and said: "That shopkeeper, I haven't received the monthly salary from the Xuanyue family for three years and four months. I follow the standard of the direct descendants of the Xuanyue family, three blood pills and 500 spirit stones every month.

, the Blood Spirit Pill helped me break it into spiritual stones, which is two thousand spiritual stones per month. I haven’t received it for 40 months. I received 80,000 spiritual stones at one time. I wonder if I can receive it now?”

"Hehe... Of course you can, but you have to wait for a while." The shopkeeper chuckled.

"Is it because the Treasure Pavilion doesn't have so many spiritual stones?"

"You can still get 800 pieces of middle-grade spiritual stones from Zhenbao Pavilion."

"Then why wait?"

The shopkeeper smiled and said nothing.

"Waiting for us!"

A sharp shout came from outside the Zhenbao Hall.

I saw five or six Taoist priests wearing white clothes and silk scarves breaking into the treasure hall.

The leader of the group has white hair and a childish face. He seems to be quite young and has the cultivation level of the late Golden Core.

Even if he was in the Qi refining stage, Hou Dongsheng would not dare to act recklessly. After all, this is the home base of the Xuan Yue family.

Hou Dongsheng: "May I ask who this is?"

"Are you Xuan Yue Dongsheng, the son-in-law of Sanfang's family?" the old man asked.

Hou Dongsheng nodded.

"Then do you know who we are?"

Hou Dongsheng shook his head.

"I, Master Shi Kun, am in charge of the Family Purity Hall."

"May I ask where the Qingjing Hall is?" Hou Dongsheng looked puzzled.

"Qingjingtang is where the Xuanyue family cleans up the traitorous children. Please come with me!"

They didn't use force. Hou Dongsheng hesitated for a moment and finally followed the man outside.

After leaving the door, the man led Hou Dongsheng up a mountain road and stopped halfway up the mountain.

The Taoist pointed forward and said, "This is it. You can follow Pindao in."

When Hou Dongsheng looked at the mountain forest in front of him, he couldn't help but take a breath, because when he looked from this direction, he couldn't see the end of the mountain at all, as if the entire mountain was hidden in the clouds.

Master Shi Kun seemed to understand the doubts in his mind and said: "This is the formation restriction of Qingjingtang. It is a quasi-five-level formation. If you go in, you can't even think of getting out."

Hou Dongsheng: "There must be some misunderstanding."

"Stop talking nonsense! Come in quickly." Master Shi Kun shouted, he was already impatient.

Hou Dongsheng could only close his eyes helplessly and entered this quasi-fifth level formation.

When Master Shi Kun saw him entering, a smile appeared on his face, and then he disappeared in a flash.

…

In a side hall of Qingjing Hall.

Hou Dongsheng sat cross-legged on the futon, closed his eyes and regulated the magic power in his body.

The movement of magic power is sluggish. In this Qingjingtang foundation-building period, the monks can only use the magic power of the Qi refining period at most. They cannot use airborne flight or second-level spells.

Not only that, Hou Dongsheng's spiritual consciousness was also firmly restricted in this small courtyard and could not reach far at all.

When Hou Dongsheng entered the Qingjing Hall, Master Shi Kun did not ask any questions, so he arranged Hou Dongsheng to this side hall and did not allow him to leave. Maybe someone else would come to investigate Hou Dongsheng.

In fact, Hou Dongsheng could probably guess what was going on.

He left a soul lantern in the Xuanyue family's ancestral hall, but after not returning for three years, the family searched for it through the soul lantern and found that he had been squatting on the site of the Demon Flame Sect for three years. This needs a good explanation.

Fortunately, Hou Dongsheng had already made a plan. He had been stationed at Queling Island for a long time at the Demon Eye Sect. Although it was also under the jurisdiction of the Demon Flame Sect, it was close to the open sea and there were many immortal cultivating families. He could explain it clearly.

But if you stay at Demon Flame Gate Firestone Island for a long time, then it’s really hard to explain.

Hou Dongsheng did not wait long, and soon two foundation-building monks flew into the courtyard.

"Xuan Yue rises in the east, do you know your sin?"

The leading monk asked sternly, his eyes as cold as swords, making people dare not look directly at him.

This is a middle-aged man in his forties, with impressive momentum and extremely high cultivation. He has reached the late stage of foundation building and can be called a half-step golden elixir.

"Dongsheng is terrified, not knowing what crime he is guilty of?"

"Where have you been in the past three years?" asked another female foundation-building cultivator.

"My wife suddenly went into seclusion to practice. I was bored in Yunlan Mountain, so I traveled around the world and visited many places..."
