74: Chapter 74 Was it because he gave too much?

Five stalks of Spirit Medicine went down his throat, but that layer of window paper remained stubborn.

Ten stalks of Spirit Medicine went down his throat, and the window paper finally thinned a bit, but it still didn't break!

Chun Xiaobai's face darkened again; even the good mood from discovering his "cockroach-like vitality" was suppressed.

He steeled his heart and gritted his teeth.

He took out all the remaining twenty stalks of Spirit Medicine, shoved them into his mouth, chewed them up, and swallowed them whole!

Immediately after, a terrifying sound like rushing rivers and erupting mountain floods erupted within his body!

"Weng——!"

The Martial God Art began to operate on its own, and an invisible wave of Qi burst forth from his body, shaking the stone walls of the cultivation room until they hummed, causing dust to rain down!

At this moment, inside Chun Xiaobai's body, his Meridians felt as if they were being gripped by an invisible hand, twisted and pulled frantically into a knot, causing cold sweat to pour down his forehead from the pain!

"Damn it! Is this what opening the divine treasury is? This is fucking killing me!"

This pain was as if someone had pulled out all his Meridians, tied them into a pretty bow, and then shoved them back inside!

It was only because his body was durable; anyone else would likely not have been able to withstand this inhuman torture.

"Boom!"

Fortunately, after the last trace of medicinal power was absorbed.

His Meridians shuddered violently, bursting with a glimmer of golden light.

Immediately after, an extreme sense of comfort surged through his entire body, as if he were soaking in a warm spring, feeling ethereal.

Chun Xiaobai couldn't help but moan: "This... this refreshing feeling...!"

He slowly stood up, raised his fist, and prepared to test his current strength.

But just as he raised his fist, he was shocked to discover that the air in front of him was rippling visibly from the force of his punch!

"Awesome!"

He could clearly feel that even if those "big shots on the ranking list" at the Foundation Establishment Stage were standing in front of him, he had the confidence to knock them down with one punch!

As expected, spending so much money was worth it!

He couldn't be bothered to slowly verify his strength, so he swept all the bottles and cans on the floor into a Storage Pouch.

Then, he hung seven or eight Storage Pouches of various sizes on his waist and pushed open the door of the cultivation room with a clatter.

Walking to the backyard, he found Fang Yuan and Bai Jiner sitting in the stone pavilion, sitting on the ground, and concentrating on their breathing exercises.

"Are you being that frugal?" Chun Xiaobai frowned as he watched. "Didn't I give you so many Medicinal Pill resources? Why are you still sitting in meditation?"

He strode over and slapped Fang Yuan on the shoulder: "Get up!"

"Pfft——!"

Fang Yuan was caught completely off guard and was slapped so hard that his blood flow reversed; he spat out a trace of blood, his face pale, and he said with a mournful expression.

"G-Great King... your strength... I was almost sent away by your slap..."

Bai Jiner was also startled awake and retracted her energy in time. Seeing Fang Yuan's state, she knitted her brows and couldn't help but speak up.

"The most taboo thing in Cultivation is being disturbed. You... Great King, being so reckless will easily cause him to suffer from Qi Deviation."

Chun Xiaobai looked at their pale faces, realized what happened, and slapped his forehead.

Their path of Cultivation was different from his Martial God Art; his Cultivation Technique could be stopped whenever he wanted, at will.

"That... that, sorry about that!" Chun Xiaobai coughed dryly, and to cover his embarrassment, he waved his hand grandly and said heroically.

"To compensate you, This Great King has decided to take you down the mountain! We're going to make a fortune!"

"Make a fortune?"

Upon hearing these three words, Fang Yuan, who had just been experiencing turbulent blood flow, instantly perked up, his eyes shining, and he couldn't even feel the pain of his torn Meridians anymore.

He really had followed the right person!

They had only been together for a few days, and he was already taking them to make a fortune!

He wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, leaned forward, and asked excitedly: "Great King, where are we going to make a fortune?"

However, the meticulous Bai Jiner felt that something was wrong immediately.

This so-called "making a fortune," even with her toes, she knew it definitely wasn't for anything good.

But she held back and didn't interrupt.

"Don't ask! Just follow This Great King!" Chun Xiaobai waved his hand, acting mysterious.

"Okay!"

Fang Yuan nodded immediately, then as if remembering something, he added: "Great King, how long will we be down the mountain this time? I... I will go to the Sect Affairs Hall to report it."

"Report?" Chun Xiaobai heard this and glanced at him sideways. "Report my ass! No need to report. You two just quit the Sect; from now on, you'll follow This Great King!"

"Uh!!!"

As soon as these words were spoken, Fang Yuan and Bai Jiner were stunned on the spot.

Quit... quit the Sect?

What kind of joke was this!

With their talent, being able to enter this Qingyun Sect was something they had earned by burning incense for eight lifetimes!

Now, he wanted them to quit directly?

Seeing the two hesitating, Chun Xiaobai raised an eyebrow, and his face darkened: "What? You're not willing?"

"That..." Fang Yuan shook his belly full of fat foolishly and said awkwardly: "Great King, it's not that I'm not willing."

"It's just... it's just that once we join the Sect, we are the Sect's people in life and the Sect's ghosts in death. There is simply no such thing as quitting voluntarily!"

"Hmm?"

Chun Xiaobai was also stunned. "There's such a bullying clause? Why didn't This Great King know about this?"

Bai Jiner complained silently: You are a fake Utility Disciple, it would be strange if you knew.

However, Chun Xiaobai quickly waved his hand and said indifferently: "It doesn't matter. If the Sect doesn't allow quitting, as long as your hearts have quit, that's enough!"

"This... this..." A struggle flashed in Fang Yuan's eyes, but it was only for a moment before he suddenly slapped his thigh, as if he had made a decision.

"Okay! I'll listen to the Great King! From today on, I, Fang Yuan, have quit the Sect!"

"These... these two guys must be crazy!"

Bai Jiner was completely dumbfounded.

Even if they quit the Sect, they still held the title of Qingyun Sect Disciple.

What if, just saying what if.

If they couldn't make it on the outside in the future, they would be executed as traitors!

Moreover, other Sects would absolutely not recruit "traitor" Disciples like them.

Besides, who knew if you were a spy sent by someone else?

Furthermore, in this Eastern Region, any decent Sect would have millions of Disciples; they wouldn't be missing one or two like them!

But... but when she thought of Chun Xiaobai's generous spending, she began to hesitate again.

"Third Leader, hurry up, give me a straight answer! Are you going to work with This Great King or not?" Chun Xiaobai urged.

Bai Jiner's mind was still a mess, and she shook her head directly, but her mouth seemed to have a mind of its own and blurted out two words.

"Al...right!"

"That's more like it!" Chun Xiaobai's face beamed with joy.

These two veterans were finally settled!

One had courage, the other had wit; this foundation was solid!

But on Bai Jiner's side, after nodding, she pinched her arm hard.

I... I... I, wasn't I supposed to refuse?

How... how did I go back on my word again?

Could it be that he gave too much?
