……
The earlier heartbreak quickly faded away with the increase in cultivation points and Yun Ling Dan.
After harvesting the entire High-Level Spirit Plant Area, Ji Yang gained dozens of points in the Four Attributes, several Yun Ling Dan, and twenty cultivation points, which was three points less than yesterday.
Ji Yang felt this was most likely due to the dozen or so high-level spiritual plants in the Maturity Phase being picked.
At this point, Ji Yang could only sigh.
However, life must go on. Before leaving, Ji Yang performed a Large Cloud Rain Technique, including a few newly planted seedlings.
Yet, the newly planted high-level spiritual plants would probably only yield white light points.
With a heavy heart, Ji Yang left the High-Level Spirit Plant Area and was about to return to the top-tier spiritual plants when he saw Steward Fan hastily approaching.
Ji Yang was puzzled, but seeing that Steward Fan seemed to be heading towards him, he stopped.
"Junior Brother Ji, I have an urgent matter to discuss with you!"
Steward Fan said hurriedly upon arrival.
Ji Yang was surprised and replied,
"Please speak, Steward Fan."
"Junior Brother Ji, you must help me with this! Recently, my family has some urgent matters that require my return. I should have reported to the elders, but Elder Yan from the spiritual herb garden is not here, and Elder Li is out on business."
"So, I want to ask you to take care of things here in the spiritual herb garden!"
Upon hearing this, Ji Yang frowned slightly. He knew well that the spiritual herb garden had more than just Elder Yan in charge, but he didn’t expect the other elder to be absent as well.
This was a significant matter, and Ji Yang just wanted to focus on caring for the plants and didn’t want to get involved, so he prepared to refuse.
It seemed Steward Fan sensed Ji Yang’s thoughts and continued,
"Junior Brother Ji, don’t worry! The spiritual herb garden rarely deals with serious matters, and taking care of the plants is the biggest responsibility here. You are more than capable of handling this, especially with Elder Yan’s endorsement."
"Moreover, elders from other peaks occasionally come to pick spiritual plants. As long as they aren’t those top-tier spiritual plants, all you need to do is keep a record, and when the elders return, you can hand over the list."
……
Ji Yang fell into deep thought after hearing this.
Initially uninterested, the mention of other elders coming to pick spiritual plants sparked an idea in his mind.
He had finally made it to this position; now you tell me that other elders would come to obstruct my path to spiritual cultivation?
No way!
He absolutely would not allow such things to happen again in the spiritual herb garden!
Without waiting for Steward Fan to finish, Ji Yang immediately agreed,
"It is a blessing for me that Steward Fan entrusted this matter to me. In that case, I will take it on."
Seeing Ji Yang agree, Steward Fan also smiled,
"Great, Junior Brother Ji, I knew I could count on you!"
"Don’t worry, Junior Brother Ji. I will be back in just two days, so you don’t need to be too concerned."
"Two days? That sounds a bit short."
Ji Yang muttered.
"What did Junior Brother Ji just say?"
Steward Fan asked curiously.
Ji Yang hurriedly replied,
"I’m just worried that two days might not be enough. Steward Fan, please go ahead. I will make sure everything is fine in the spiritual herb garden."
"That’s very good."
"In that case, I will take my leave now. If the elders return in the meantime, just report normally. I will also send a transmission to Elder Yan. As for the other disciples in the spiritual herb garden, I will inform them now. Junior Brother Ji, feel free to focus on your tasks!"
"Alright, Steward Fan, take care!"
As he watched Steward Fan’s figure grow distant until it disappeared, Ji Yang smiled slightly.
Go ahead boldly!
Originally planning to return to the top-tier spiritual plant area to check on a few plants, Ji Yang now had other ideas and hurried to the loft outside the spiritual herb garden, where Steward Fan usually stayed.
Upon arriving at the loft, Ji Yang looked for specific regulations regarding spiritual plants in the sect’s spiritual herb garden.
Because the spiritual herb garden did not belong to any one peak, it was completely owned by the sect.
Therefore, spiritual plants could only be freely allocated by the Sect Master. Other peak masters and elders wishing to procure necessary spiritual plants must report to the sect and then gather them.
The top-tier spiritual plants required direct orders from the Sect Master.
Less valuable spiritual plants could be exchanged for contribution points.
For these spiritual plants, all that was necessary was to keep a record.
However, plants that could be exchanged for contribution points were mostly mid-tier and a few high-level spiritual plants.
Some rare high-level spiritual plants not only required enough contribution points but also the confirmation of several elders from the sect.
Of course, these were merely the surface rules of the He Dao Sect. In reality, many elders often only needed to give a heads-up to the spiritual herb garden and obtain the consent of its elders or stewards, then just keep a record.
After all, those who needed the plants were mostly alchemists from various peaks, and while the spiritual herb garden belonged to the sect, the two elders in charge wouldn’t easily offend any peak.
That’s why, as Steward Fan just said, he only needed to record it.
On the wooden table in the loft, there was also a messaging talisman and a ledger.
The messaging talisman was used by other guard disciples to notify Steward Fan, while the ledger recorded which elders had come to pick spiritual plants this month.
Ji Yang opened the latest page and looked.
Sure enough, yesterday, an elder from Juhufeng sent a disciple to take away several high-level spiritual plants.
Additionally, an elder from Wangxia Peak also collected a few spiritual plants.
Several spiritual plants had disappeared just like that.
Ji Yang silently clenched his fists.
As long as he was around, no one else could take high-level spiritual plants from him.
At least not right now!
Every event must have a reason, and Ji Yang could not block others without cause; he needed to find a suitable justification.
Just as Ji Yang was deep in thought, a message came through the messaging talisman in his hand.
Opening it, he smiled.
Someone was already looking for trouble so quickly.
The message from a disciple reported that someone wanted to come to the spiritual herb garden to pick several types of spiritual plants, and asked Ji Yang to respond.
Now that the elders were absent and Steward Fan was away, Ji Yang was the highest authority in the spiritual herb garden. Although he could not allocate plants, he had no problem overseeing them.
"Is Steward Fan available? Please inform him."
Before Ji Yang reached the door, he heard a disciple’s voice.
As Ji Yang approached, he saw a disciple dressed in Juhufeng attire, respectfully cupping his fists.
"Please wait a moment, Senior Brother."
The guard disciple nodded in reply.
As Ji Yang walked out, the guard disciple smiled quickly,
"Senior Brother Ji has come out. Senior Brother now handles steward duties, so please feel free to speak directly to him."
The Juhufeng disciple looked surprised.
Yesterday when he came, Steward Fan was here, and today it was someone else — a much younger disciple at that.
Looking at his cultivation level, he seemed even lower than his own!
