How can I have a heart of a demonic god in my body?!-Chapter 173 - 0170 Distribution of Harvest
Chapter 173: Chapter 0170: Distribution of Harvest Chapter 173 -0170: Distribution of Harvest In front of the pinnacle Guiyuan Realm of Chu Country, Chen Yu had no say, bound by the “half-year agreement” set for him.
At that moment.
Chen Yu felt an illusion as though he was just a tiny pawn in the game of titans, easily discarded at any time.
This was not just about his personal fate.
In the Chu Country Sect realm, millions of low-level insects under the pyramid are controlled by the handful of titans at the top with invisible palms governing their destinies.
This current reality of the Sect battlefield and Blood Burial Garden was merely the result of those titans’ strategic plays.
The feeling of helplessness over his fate made Chen Yu’s heart unwilling.
He had never felt so strongly, so urgently, his desire to wield truly great power, to control his own destiny, even to wrestle with those titans.
Right then.
Swoosh!
A sound of breaking through the air came, as Lv Tiezu transformed into a dazzling orange sword shadow, piercing into the skies.
Before leaving.
Chen Yu felt Lv Tiezu’s cold, indifferent gaze, looking down on him as if he were an ant.
His fists clenched tightly, he resisted the immense pressure from that cold gaze.
“That kid’s gaze…”
Lv Tiezu returned to Lu Yun City, his heart slightly chilled.
From the opponent’s gaze, he sensed an indomitable will.
…
“Yu’er, it’s because I am incapable as a Master that I can’t protect you like Mei Changqing,”
Elder Mao wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, his face bitter.
“Master, the injury you’ve received…”
Chen Yu quickly approached, feeling moved and guilty.
But he feared.
Elder Mao did not know that he was indeed the killer of Lv Santong, and had also shielded him from Lv Tiezu’s fury.
As for Mei Changqing, he was under the protection of his master and even the Bone Demon Palace.
Chen Yu did not envy him at all.
If the one to act against Mei Changqing turned out to be a supreme from the Sky Sea Realm, would Master Fu come forward like Elder Mao?
That was questionable.
All along.
In Chen Yu’s eyes, Elder Mao was someone more inclined toward benefits.
And it was indeed the case.
Elder Mao took him as a disciple initially for the benefits of the Ancient Moon Well and didn’t help much in Chen Yu’s training.
However.
Though Elder Mao was profit-oriented, once he accepted a disciple, he would at least adhere to the basic principles expected of a master.
Protecting his disciple was one of his principles.
“I’ve only sustained some minor injuries, nothing serious.
It’s just that you’ve been spiritually attacked by Lv Tiezu’s Sword Intent, causing potential deeper mental harm.”
Elder Mao waved his hand, showing care for Chen Yu again.
“That Lv Tiezu is truly ruthless to test a Disciple in the Organ Refining Stage with his spiritual Sword Intent.”
Several Yunyue Sect elders voiced their dissatisfaction.
“Fortunately, I had consumed a small portion of the Blood Soul Bud.
My spirit was nourished and strengthened and, with the shattering of the Ice Heart Tears, I was almost unharmed.”
Chen Yu said in relief.
This 𝓬ontent is taken from fгeewebnovёl.co𝙢.
He had consumed the Blood Soul Bud, which contained immense Blood Soul Essence, continuing to nourish his spirit for some time.
“Blood Soul Bud?”
Several Qi Transformation Realm elders from Yunyue Sect showed envy.
After 15 minutes.
Inside a spacious hall in Lu Yun City.
The high ranks of Yunyue Sect, including the Supreme Elder Gongyang, were all present.
Below.
Seventeen or eighteen disciples took out their respective storage bags filled with their gains, waiting for the sect’s distribution.
According to prior agreements.
Yunyue Sect disciples would keep 30% of their gains from the Blood Burial Garden.
After all, these were obtained through life-and-death battles.
At this moment.
Many high-ups, including the Sect Master, elders, and the Supreme Elder, all had their gleaming eyes fixed on Chen Yu.
“Now, let’s begin distributing the gains.”
The Blue Robed Sect Master coughed lightly, and at the indication of Supreme Elder Gongyang, began negotiating with each disciple.
An hour later.
All the disciples had their gains distributed.
Most disciples obtained only one or two percent of their collection, while the sect would also compensate with some Grade Essence Stones and contribution points as a reward.
Only Chen Yu was left till the end.
“Chen Yu, I, the Elder, negotiated hard with Lv Tiezu, barely securing a half-year agreement for you at a significant cost…”
A white-haired, ghost-like figure appeared before Chen Yu.
“Supreme Elder.”
Chen Yu dared not delay, and hurriedly paid his respects.
“Elder Gongyang, please pick some.
If it weren’t for your presence, no matter how great our gains, we couldn’t have kept them.”
The Blue Robed Sect Master said, smiling obsequiously.
Several Qi Transformation Realm elders, with faces showing reverence, were utterly respectful.
A great power from the Guiyuan Realm in the Yunyue Sect was an existence that transcended all.
“Hmm, I’ll take these few…”
Supreme Elder Gongyang waved his hand.
“Swish.”
From the war spoils before Chen Yu, those heavenly treasures of three to five hundred years were immediately taken, more than half of them.
In addition.
This half that was taken away included the most valuable and rarer types.
Furthermore.
Supreme Elder Gongyang also took away a dozen of the topmost precious minerals.
Regarding these.
Both Chen Yu and Elder Mao, even if they felt dissatisfied, could not express it.
The Supreme Elder was the sky of Yunyue Sect.
Without him, Yunyue Sect would find it hard to stand as one of the three sects in Chu Country.
“Chen Yu, you have made no small merit this time, and I hereby appoint you as a True Disciple of our sect.”
Supreme Elder Gongyang, having taken away the spoils of war, wore a full-faced smile.
“Thank you, Supreme Elder, for your promotion.”
Chen Yu maintained an overtly grateful expression on his face.
Inside, however, he was filled with criticism.
The gains he brought back were enough to make the Qi Transformation Realm green with envy, so much so that even those in the Guiyuan Realm coveted them.
The quota for True Disciple was just a word from the Supreme Elder.
Moreover,
with Chen Yu’s current strength, becoming a True Disciple through a challenge was as easy as turning over his hand.
Even,
the position of Chief Disciple, with all his effort, was not far out of reach.
Swoosh!
Supreme Elder Gongyang disappeared from the spot, leaving behind the high-level elders of the Yunyue Sect.
Afterward,
about half of Chen Yu’s remaining harvest was to be distributed according to the agreement.
Several elders at the scene argued heatedly.
Although most of the harvest was to be taken by the sect, the elders, with their privileges and contribution points, Primordial Stones, could exchange and purchase at a more favorable rate.
“My fellow seniors and uncles, these various precious ores and heavenly materials, I urgently need…”
Chen Yu struggled for his share of the harvest.
Ultimately,
Chen Yu successfully retained a few stalks of Fire Spirit Ginseng aged two to three hundred years, which was one of the main ingredients in the fourth recipe of the Medicinal Liquid for the Copper Statue Technique, Body Refining.
Also,
there were Black Mysterious Crystal, Golden Cloud Stone, Five Hundred Years of Yin Corrosion Bamboo, and seven or eight other items used for Artifact Refining that Chen Yu barely managed to keep.
Especially so for the Five Hundred Years of Yin Corrosion Bamboo, which Chen Yu had almost forcibly retained.
Three pieces of Golden Cloud Stone, which could enhance the sharpness of magical weapons, were also not easily kept.
This stone, was one of the finds from Lu Zhuo’s storage bag.
Chen Yu planned to forge several powerful spears to ensure his long-range lethality.
The rest of the precious ores and materials, as well as those kept in the Light Silver Crystal Space, were all in preparation for future weapons refining.
An hour later,
Chen Yu’s share of the harvest was finally distributed.
After calculations, he had only received slightly more than 10% of the total gains, far less than the previously agreed 30%.
There was no helping it.
The Supreme Elder alone had taken more than 50%.
While other disciples had each taken one or two percent; but Chen Yu’s share was so rich that getting 10% was inappropriate, and that was thanks to Elder Mao’s strenuous efforts.
However,
Yunyue Sect also gave Chen Yu corresponding compensation.
Apart from the identity of True Disciple, they also exchanged the complete version of the Cloud Evil Divine Skill to him without any cost.
Other compensations:
Primordial Stones, awarded two hundred thousand Grade Essence Stones.
Contribution points, awarded five hundred thousand!
Chen Yu’s heart felt slightly better.
From facing the threat of Lv Tiezu, his master standing up for him and getting injured, to the Supreme Elders and their exploitation, he had been enduring it all along.
He silently swore.
One day, he would reach the summit of Chu Country, growing from an ant to a great hand capable of flipping the clouds and the rain.
…
Three days later.
Chen Yu and the other disciples set off for their return to the Yunyue Sect.
Every disciple who participated in the Blood Burial Garden was permitted to come back and rest for a month.
These disciples, having returned from the Blood Burial Garden, had all had notable opportunities and had made significant contributions to the sect; it was proper to return and recuperate for a while.
Elder Mao also returned with them.
In the battlefield of Lu Yun City, Elder Mao had faced Lv Tiezu’s attack and was seriously injured, thus he was assigned to return and oversee the sect for a while.
Upon reaching the sect,
Elder Mao, with a solemn expression, called Chen Yu to his mansion.
In a secret room in the Elder Mansion,
Chen Yu looked around at the heavy Array restrictions surrounding the secret room and showed a surprised expression.
“You have Lv Tiezu’s mental Sword Seal on you.
Though he is far enough not to likely hear our conversation, we still have to be cautious,” Elder Mao solemnly said.
Then, without waiting for Chen Yu to speak,
Elder Mao’s eyes flashed sharply: “Was Lv Santong killed by you?
Do not hide it from your master anymore.”
“Yes.”
Chen Yu clenched his teeth and gave a firm answer.
Unexpectedly, Elder Mao’s face remained calm and not much surprised.
“Your suspicion in Lv Santong’s death is indeed significant.
Not just because of your capabilities, but also your grudge with this person.”
Elder Mao spoke gravely.
“What else?” Chen Yu was taken aback.
“There’s also the matter of destiny.
Your great opportunity and rise in the Blood Burial Garden coincided with the fall of some geniuses’ destinies,” sighed Elder Mao.
Hearing this, Chen Yu was emotionally and mentally shaken.
Could it be,
that destiny, this intangible force, truly exists?
But on further thought,
how many geniuses had he slain in the Blood Burial Garden?
Helian Tu, Yi Yunfei, Lv Santong, Lu Zhuo, and other geniuses all fell by his hand.
The world is cruel.
If Chen Yu did not kill others, he himself might be killed, possibly fueling others’ fortunes.
Suddenly,
Chen Yu realized some reasons.
Why Lv Tiezu was most suspicious of him.
Three main reasons: the power to kill Lv Santong, the grudge with Lv Santong, and the great destiny upon him (the fall of Lv Santong’s destiny).
Afterward,
Chen Yu detailed the process of killing Lv Santong, including Liu Xin’er’s involvement.
Throughout this process,
Elder Mao’s expression grew heavier.
“Yu’er, you only have one path left now.
To flee Chu Country, escape far away, maybe there lies a thread of life for you,” Elder Mao’s expression was unprecedentedly grave.
“Master…
I killed Lv Santong with a spear, without any trace or evidence; how can Lv Tiezu be certain I am the murderer?” Chen Yu could hardly understand.
“Yu’er, you don’t understand the prowess of the ‘Great Witch’ from the Snow Mountain Tribe.
With so many information mediums available, it’s enough for the Great Witch to divine the real murderer.
Staying in Chu Country, your death is inevitable,” Elder Mao shook his head and smiled bitterly.
