After the anger in Cao Ji's heart subsided, he realized that what he had just done was a bit out of line.
The boy he kicked to death was the younger brother of his most beloved concubine, and he was considered half of his brother-in-law.
Otherwise, he would not have always tolerated the other party's arrogance and domineering tendencies.
"What should I do now..."
When he thought of his concubine's appearance after learning the news, his head suddenly got bigger.
After thinking hard to no avail, he could only order his servants to hide the matter from his concubine for the time being, and lied to the public that his brother-in-law was out on business.
But there comes a time when things cannot be hidden.
One night.
Cao Ji was about to find his concubine to try out the new tricks he had learned, when he saw her concubine smashing things like crazy in the room and bursting into tears.
"Beauty, what's wrong with you?" he asked with a guilty conscience.
"Didn't the master ask questions knowingly? My poor brother..." As the concubine spoke, she broke down in tears.
"Beauty, don't cry. Master, wasn't I angry at the time? This mistake..." Cao Ji said and gave himself a slap.
"What nonsense are you talking about, sir? Wasn't my brother beaten to death by the evil people on Caiquan Island when he went out to deliver a message?"
Upon hearing this, Cao Ji was stunned for a moment, and soon secretly rejoiced.
"Yes! Why didn't I think of that?"
Now he couldn't care less about where his concubine heard this rumor. In short, it was the truth!
"Master, my brother usually works hard without any credit, but you must help him get revenge!"
"Don't worry, beauty, I will definitely avenge this brother-in-law!"
"That's so kind of you, sir!"
When Cao Ji saw that his concubine had stopped crying, and he was already horny, he immediately pounced on her.
"Beauty, let's try something new tonight..."
…
The lower court disciples of the Blood Sample Sect, whether they are outer disciples or entry disciples, have no salary.
Correspondingly, you don't need to do any sect tasks during this period, you just need to concentrate on practicing.
But after becoming an inner disciple, the situation changed.
Based on strength and rating, the sect will give a certain amount of salary to inner disciples every year.
But correspondingly, the inner disciples must also complete the tasks assigned by the sect.
And the tasks are mandatory. Even if you don't want a salary, you still have to complete the sect's tasks.
However, according to different sect tasks, there will be additional rewards and subsidies in the sect.
The more difficult and difficult the task is, and the longer it takes, the higher the additional subsidies will be.
Lin Fan was busy on the island for several days, and after taking care of his new home, he took the time to visit Lingji Pavilion on Lingji Island.
He came here today precisely to collect his salary and some sect supplies.
This is one of the better things about the Xueyang Sect. Newcomers can also receive a salary in the first year after they enter the Upper House.
It was noon at this time, and there were few people in the pavilion.
As soon as he entered the door, a disciple came forward and greeted him: "Senior brother, are you here to receive your salary?"
"Yes. At the same time, I also need to receive the entry-level items for newcomers." Lin Fan said and handed over his identity token.
"Okay senior brother, please wait a moment." After the disciple took the token, he returned to the counter and got busy.
After a while, the disciple exchanged the token for Lin Fan, and at the same time placed a Taoist robe, a bottle of elixir, and a pile of spiritual stones on the table.
Lin Fan picked up the elixir and gently uncorked the bottle.
A faint medicinal fragrance came to my face, and I saw that there were blue-gray pills full of spiritual energy in the bottle.
He recognized at a glance that the bottle contained the "Condensing Essence Pill" that could enhance the mana during the pulse opening stage.
Judging from the quality of the elixir, it should still be a middle-grade Yuan Ning Dan!
"This sect is too generous." He couldn't help but secretly smacked his tongue.
You know, the pills in the pulse-opening stage are much more expensive than the pills in the Qi-refining stage.
A bottle of low-grade Ning Yuan Dan containing ten elixirs costs as much as three hundred spirit stones per bottle!
The price of this middle-grade Ning Yuan Dan is even more exaggerated, costing a full 1,500 spirit stones per bottle!
At this moment, the salary of the two hundred spiritual stones on the table became a complete foil in front of this extremely valuable bottle of elixir.
The elixir plus two hundred spiritual stones, a salary of one thousand seven hundred spiritual stones a year, is too exaggerated!
The key is that, according to his recent understanding, the ordinary disciples in the sect who are in the pulse-opening stage are still relatively poor.
Excluding his own magical weapons, he only has a few thousand spiritual stones on his body.
"Is the salary of each inner disciple that much?" Lin Fan asked with some confusion as he accepted the items on the table.
"No, the salary is distributed based on the rating. Among them, the D rating only has fifty spiritual stones per year, and the C rating has one hundred spiritual stones per year. If the rating increases by one level, there will be fifty more spiritual stones."
"Senior brother, your rating is A, so you only have two hundred spiritual stones a year."
"As for this elixir, one bottle will only be distributed every ten years, not every year."
"Among them, those rated A are middle-grade elixirs; those rated B, C, and D are low-grade elixirs."
The disciple patiently explained to Lin Fan, his eyes full of desire for the high-grade Yuan Ning Dan in the bottle.
"I see, thank you junior brother for clarifying my doubts." Lin Fan said, then changed the subject and continued: "There is one more thing I would like to ask junior brother."
"Senior brother, please tell me."
"I heard that inner disciples will be assigned tasks by the sect. I wonder when I will receive my task?"
"Generally speaking, the sect will give new disciples who enter the upper courtyard a few months to adapt. However, everyone's situation is different, and the time for the mission is also different."
"The fastest is three months, and the latest is a few years later. Senior brother, just rest assured and wait. When the mission comes, you will naturally understand."
"Thank you, junior brother, for saying goodbye." Lin Fan gave the other party a few spiritual stones as a reward for his answer, then stepped on the flying sword and left the island.
A few hours later.
Yujian flew to Lin Fan near Caiquan Island. From a distance, he heard someone calling for formation outside the island.
"Lin Fan! You shrinking turtle, get out of here!"
Lin Fan, who has gone through many hardships, has long been able to keep his emotions and anger intangible. He stepped forward with a calm face and said: "Senior brother, I wonder what you want from me?"
At this moment, Lin Fan was holding a flying sword, looking calm, and his Taoist robes were flapping in the wind.
Coupled with his deep eyes, Cao Ji looked across from him and felt a little guilty.
Cao Ji has already conducted an investigation and found out that the other party has only an ordinary relationship with Senior Brother Zhao Qi and does not have a deep friendship. In this way, he has no worries.
In order to get Caiquan Island and maintain his heroic image in the concubine's heart.
He quickly adjusted his mentality and said arrogantly: "So you are Lin Fan. I sent someone to deliver the message with good intentions, but why did you kill my servant for no reason!"
Lin Fan had long thought that the other party would come to make trouble, but he never imagined that he would use such a poor excuse?
He said calmly: "I don't know how your servant died, but if you say I killed him, then so be it."
"What did I say? It was obviously you who killed me!" Cao Ji said angrily.
"Okay, after taking such a big detour, don't you just want Caiquan Island in my hand?" Lin Fan sneered.
"As long as you understand, quickly give up this island and then pay for it...!" Cao Ji was only halfway through speaking when he saw the other party drop two words and then turned around and returned to the island, leaving him alone.
Off the island.
"no way!"
These two words lingered in his ears for a long time, and he was so angry that he stamped his feet. This chapter has been completed!
