160: discipline

He took a deep breath and said, "Fellow Daoist in black robes, I understand what you mean. How about this, Fellow Daoist can take one-third of the resources from my Sect's warehouse, and I will personally give you a bottle of Golden Essence Pill. This Medicinal Pill was obtained through great hardship, and I am reluctant to use it myself. I believe Fellow Daoist in black robes should also know the value of this Golden Essence Pill. At the same time, my Qingyun Sect will never become an enemy of the Sea Demon Sect. What do you think, is this acceptable?"

As Lin Feng spoke, he took out a jade bottle and threw it into the black-robed man's hand. The black-robed man took the jade bottle, opened the lid, and a rich medicinal fragrance wafted out.

He was slightly stunned, not expecting Lin Feng to be so generous as to give him such a precious Medicinal Pill as the Golden Essence Pill.

He carefully examined the jade bottle in his hand, a hint of satisfaction flashing in his eyes.

For a Cultivator, the Golden Essence Pill was an excellent Medicinal Pill for improving cultivation, especially for an Early-Stage Golden Core cultivator like him, it had an indescribable benefit.

To say he wasn't tempted would be self-deception.

Greed for the Golden Essence Pill had already arisen in the black-robed man's heart, but he still forced a cold laugh and said, "Lin Feng, you know what's good for you.

This time, I will temporarily spare your Qingyun Sect.

However, you must remember that your Qingyun Sect must remain neutral and not interfere in the struggle between our Sea Demon Sect and the Sea Domain Alliance.

Otherwise, you will bear the consequences."

Lin Feng secretly breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this.

He quickly nodded and agreed, "Fellow Daoist in black robes, rest assured, Qingyun Sect will definitely remain neutral and will never interfere in the struggle between your Sea Demon Sect and the Sea Domain Alliance."

Seeing that Lin Feng had agreed, the black-robed man said no more.

He looked at Lin Feng, who smiled slightly and called Yun Yi, asking him to take the black-robed man to the Qingyun Sect's warehouse to collect the resources Lin Feng had promised.

Accompanied by Lin Feng and Yun Yi, the black-robed man arrived at Qingyun Sect's warehouse.

The warehouse was piled with many Cultivation resources and Materials, but although these resources were numerous, truly valuable ones were few, as Qingyun Sect was only a small Sect.

He selected one-third of the resources as per Lin Feng's promise, preparing to take them away.

Before leaving the warehouse, the black-robed man suddenly stopped, turned to look at Lin Feng, and said, "Lin Feng, I hope you can keep your promise and not let our Sea Demon Sect discover any improper thoughts from your Qingyun Sect.

Otherwise, you will bear the consequences."

Lin Feng's expression changed slightly upon hearing this, but he quickly regained his composure.

He smiled and said, "Fellow Daoist in black robes, rest assured, Qingyun Sect will definitely keep its promise, remain neutral, and will never disappoint your Sea Demon Sect."

The black-robed man nodded in satisfaction upon hearing this, then turned and left.

Lin Feng watched the black-robed man's departing back, secretly pondering that this struggle with the Sea Demon Sect had finally come to a temporary end.

The reason Lin Feng gave the black-robed man Golden Essence Pills was that although these Medicinal Pills were extremely precious to other Golden Core cultivators, they were nothing to Lin Feng, an Alchemist.

These were all Medicinal Pills he had refined himself.

On the other hand, regarding Qingyun Sect's resources, Qingyun Sect had sealed its mountain gate for many years and had only recently reappeared.

Initially, to enhance the strength of the Sect's Disciples, many precious resources were used by Lin Feng to refine Medicinal Pills and strengthen the Sect's foundation, so there were not many valuable resources left.

But now, for the safety of the Sect, Lin Feng had no choice but to make some sacrifices.

Lin Feng felt it was well worth it to use some resources to buy time for Qingyun Sect's peaceful development.

After all, compared to other large Sects in the Sea Domain Alliance or facing the Sea Demon Sect, Qingyun Sect's strength was still too weak.

If it were to truly confront the Sea Demon Sect head-on, it would be like throwing an egg against a rock.

Lin Feng also saw that the black-robed man must have Cultivated for some years, so he took out a bottle of Golden Essence Pill to impress him.

After the black-robed man left, Lin Feng immediately summoned Yun Yi and his two Disciples, instructing them that during this period, the Sect's Disciples should remain within the Sect and Cultivate diligently, not venturing out.

As for the Sect traitor Wang Meng, he instructed them to arrange personnel to closely monitor him without making any rash moves, only observing him secretly.

They should frequently leak some false information about the Sect's decline to allow him to continue transmitting it to the Sea Demon Sect.

This was to mislead them and make the Sea Demon Sect misjudge Qingyun Sect's strength.

At the same time, Lin Feng also began preparations, so that if the Sea Demon Sect truly made a move against Qingyun Sect, they would have enough power to respond.

Wang Meng had already exposed his identity as a traitor when he brought the black-robed man to the Sect.

This fellow was currently somewhat arrogant, so Lin Feng ordered Yun Yi to summon him, preparing to give the boy a stern warning.

Wang Meng quickly arrived before Lin Feng, looking at him with a proud and arrogant smile on his face, seemingly believing that he had completed his mission and was about to receive a reward from the Sea Demon Sect.

Lin Feng looked at Wang Meng, a hint of coldness flashing in his eyes.

He slowly said, "Wang Meng, you did very well, successfully bringing the black-robed man to Qingyun Sect.

However, do you think this is enough to receive a reward from the Sea Demon Sect?"

Wang Meng's expression changed slightly upon hearing this.

He didn't expect Lin Feng to say such words.

He forced himself to remain calm and said, "Old Ancestor, what do you mean by this?

I helped the black-robed man come here for the good of the Sect."

Lin Feng sneered and said, "For the good of the Sect?

If you were truly for the good of the Sect, you wouldn't betray the Sect and join the Sea Demon Sect.

Do you know that your actions have brought a huge threat to Qingyun Sect?"

Wang Meng's face turned pale upon hearing this.

He didn't expect Lin Feng to already know about his betrayal.

He stammered, "Old Ancestor, I... I just..."

Lin Feng didn't want to hear his nonsense and ordered Yun Yi to take him away, instructing Yun Yi to severely punish him as a warning to others.

At the same time, Lin Feng also had Yun Yi thoroughly investigate other Disciples in the Sect to see if there were any other traitors, and if any were found, to deal with them secretly to ensure the Sect's safety.

The reason Lin Feng kept Wang Meng was to show him to the Sea Demon Sect, and also to let the Sea Demon Sect know that Lin Feng was willing for the Sect to be monitored by them, but whether they could obtain accurate information about Qingyun Sect was another matter.

After Wang Meng was taken away by Yun Yi, Lin Feng sat alone in his Immortal Cave, lost in thought.

He understood that although he had temporarily dealt with the Sea Demon Sect, the Sea Demon Sect would definitely not give up.

Now that a short-term conflict with the Sea Demon Sect had broken out, Lin Feng could Cultivate with peace of mind.
