Mu Bai's Seventh Granduncle!
At the Spirit Crane Palace, Mu Bai and the others looked at the spiritual medicine with its Mutated Heart-Devouring Power with smiles on their faces, but also with worry.
After all, the value of these elixirs is certainly far greater than before, but the problem remains the same...
Production volume is still somewhat low.
So recently, Mu Bai and the others have been researching how to make these spiritual herbs grow faster.
However, this is also where the problem lies: these spiritual herbs with Mutated Heart-Devouring Power cannot be cultivated using the same methods that Mu Bai and the others used in the past.
Mu Bai had tried it. If they used the same rapid cultivation method as before, the spiritual medicine could be produced quickly, but the Heart-Devouring Power it possessed would dissipate. In this way, the spiritual medicine would be produced, but the Heart-Devouring Power would be gone.
Therefore, Mu Bai and his team have recently focused on how to preserve the Heart-Devouring Power within the spiritual herbs while simultaneously increasing the yield of the herbs.
After all, this thing has the ability to devour normal Heart-Devouring Power. As long as the production of spiritual herbs increases, selling these herbs will not only make Vast Heaven Holy Land a fortune, but also allow the entire Three Continents to have the ability to be immune to the Heart-Devouring Heart-Devouring Power Heart-Devouring Evil Spirits.
Once these elixirs are widely available, there is no doubt that even after the Four Continents are merged, there will be no more walking corpses controlled by the Heart-Devouring Evil Spirits.
After all, not everyone is like our Vast Heaven Holy Land, able to Heart-Devouring Evil Spirits... If the Four Continents were to merge, who knows what kind of trouble the Heart-Devouring Evil Spirits might cause.
The problem is that even after so many days of research, Mu Bai and his team still haven't come up with a good solution, not even Mu Xiaoqi has the most ideas.
Just as Mu Bai was racking his brains about what to do next, Senior Brother Shen Chun suddenly appeared out of nowhere.
Then, Senior Brother Shen Chun casually picked a sweet spiritual fruit from the spirit field, and while eating it, he said, "Junior Brother Mu Bai, relatives from your Muyue Kingdom have come to visit you..."
"Huh?" Mu Bai was also taken aback when he heard this news.
The visitor claims to be your seventh maternal uncle!
Upon hearing that it was his seventh uncle, Mu Bai smiled.
Disciples of the Vast Heaven Holy Land are normally entitled to a family visit leave every year.
Of course, this "normal" definitely does not include disciples of the Civil Engineering Department and the Azure Dragon. After all, to have leave to visit relatives, the prerequisite is that your cultivation is not delayed, and the various matters of the sect that you are responsible for are not delayed.
The first two are definitely no problem for the Civil Engineering Department students, but the latter... that's tough...
As for Azure Dragon? Come on, tell me, where does Azure Dragon have any relatives?
However, in addition to the disciples' family visit leave, the Vast Heaven Holy Land also allows relatives from the disciples' Lineage to visit once a year.
Therefore, although the students of the Civil Engineering Department cannot take a holiday themselves, their families can come to Vast Heaven Holy Land to visit them.
Moreover, the Vast Heaven Holy Land treats all the family members of the disciples who come to visit equally, arranging the highest level of reception for them. Therefore, although the disciples of the Civil Engineering Department cannot go home or take a holiday, their families still come to visit them every year.
Since Mu Bai and his group entered the Vast Heaven Holy Land, given Mu Bai's status, he naturally doesn't need to apply for leave to visit family like ordinary disciples. As long as Mu Bai arranges everything, he can return to the Muyue Kingdom at any time.
Ordinary disciples are not allowed too many holidays to go home and visit their families mainly because they have just embarked on the path of cultivation and are afraid that being away from the sect for too long will diminish their enthusiasm for cultivation.
Although Mu Bai could go home to visit his family at any time, he would never leave voluntarily. After all, Mu Bai always remembered that he had to contribute to the sect. How could he leave the sect just to visit his family and miss the time to build the sect?
Therefore, Mu Bai clearly told the Muyue Kingdom that he would not easily return unless there was something going on, and that the Muyue Kingdom should try not to visit him at Vast Heaven Holy Land unless there was something going on.
After all, I'm very busy every day.
Therefore, when Mu Bai heard that his seventh uncle had come, he knew that this was definitely not just a simple visit to relatives; something must have happened for his seventh uncle to come.
Otherwise, Uncle Qi wouldn't have traveled all the way from the Muyue Kingdom to this place.
Senior Brother Shen Chun has already invited Mu Bai's seventh uncle to the Vast Heaven Holy Land. Now, Mu Bai is thanking Senior Brother Shen Chun while rushing to where his seventh uncle is.
From afar, Mu Bai spotted his seventh uncle...
Among all his relatives, the one who doted on Mu Bai the most since childhood was his seventh uncle. Now, seeing his seventh uncle, Mu Bai was so excited that his eyes welled up with tears.
"Mu Bai pays his respects to his seventh uncle..."
"Oh, get up, get up... good boy... good boy... not bad, not bad... you haven't lost weight, you look even more muscular. Come, come, tell your seventh uncle, has anyone bullied you in the Vast Heaven Holy Land...?"
Mu Bai's seventh uncle was a plump old man with white hair and beard.
At this moment, as soon as this seventh uncle spoke, everyone around, whether disciples of the Muyue Kingdom or other disciples of the Vast Heaven Holy Land, laughed.
What the heck? Has anyone been bullying Senior Brother Mu Bai?
Uncle Seven, you really underestimate our Senior Brother Mu Bai.
Is King Mu Bai of Versailles a joke?
Given Senior Brother Mu Bai's current status in the Vast Heaven Holy Land, it's obvious to everyone that the Future Grand Elder of the Spirit Crane Palace will definitely be handed over to Mu Bai.
Previously, everyone thought that the Grand Elder would definitely hand over Spirit Crane Palace to Senior Brother Feng Fei, but with the appearance of Senior Brother Mu Bai and the others, everyone also knows that Senior Brother Mu Bai is definitely more suitable to take charge of the Spirit Crane Palace than Senior Brother Feng Fei.
Now that Senior Brother Feng Fei is in charge of the finances of the entire Vast Heaven Holy Land, he no longer needs to keep an eye on the Spirit Crane Palace. Therefore, Mu Bai has basically secured the position of the Future head of the Spirit Crane Palace.
Who would dare bully Mu Bai like this?
Normally, everyone treats Senior Brother Mu Bai with utmost respect... Aside from Senior Brother Ma Liang or Senior Brother Feng Fei, who would dare to say a few words about Mu Bai, most people wouldn't even dare to say much about him.
In the entire Vast Heaven Holy Land, if you're looking for someone who would kick Mu Bai if they dared to go up there, it would only be Senior Brother Xinghe...
But when Senior Brother Xinghe kicked you, was that being bullied? It meant Senior Brother Xinghe valued you!
Mu Bai led his seventh uncle to the Spirit Crane Palace, and along the way, Mu Bai also introduced his situation in the Vast Heaven Holy Land to his seventh uncle.
At the same time, Mu Bai went straight to the point and asked his seventh uncle if he had encountered any trouble.
"Mu Bai... you're right... I really do have something to discuss with you this time..." Uncle Qi didn't stand on ceremony with Mu Bai.
Uncle Qi said that ever since Mu Bai and his group entered the Vast Heaven Holy Land, the Muyue Kingdom has finally been able to hold its head high.
In the past, when people mentioned the Muyue Kingdom, everyone would laugh at them. But now, when they mention the Muyue Kingdom, everyone is filled with respect.
The Muyue Kingdom is renowned throughout the world for its expertise in alchemy and the cultivation of spiritual herbs. Anyone who disagrees can ask the dogs of Martial Emperor City; they will surely be able to explain it to you clearly.
Every year, the Muyue Kingdom selects a group of the most talented disciples and sends them to the Vast Heaven Holy Land, where Mu Bai then conducts a second round of selection.
Anyone who passes Mu Bai's selection will be qualified to become a disciple of the Vast Heaven Holy Land.
Although every year countless sects travel to the Muyue Kingdom hoping to find a hidden gem and acquire a few of the Muyue Kingdom geniuses.
Unfortunately, the Muyue Kingdom will never join any faction except for those who enter the Vast Heaven Holy Land.
This has been established as national law in the Muyue Kingdom, and no one is allowed to join any force other than the Vast Heaven Holy Land.
The Muyue Kingdom must forever remember that without the Vast Heaven Holy Land and the Chu Xinghe, there would be no Muyue Kingdom today!
While this statement is not wrong, the problem is that although Muyue Kingdom has many geniuses, not everyone in the Muyue Kingdom is a genius.
Only a very small number of people can enter the Vast Heaven Holy Land. There are countless ordinary people in the Muyue Kingdom. Although they also have abilities similar to Mu Bai and the others, they are far inferior to geniuses like Mu Bai.
With their talents, it's impossible for them to join the Vast Heaven Holy Land, but they still have a chance to join other sects.
However, the Muyue Kingdom now forbids its disciples from joining any force other than the Vast Heaven Holy Land, which is tantamount to cutting off the future of other young people in the Muyue Kingdom.
Therefore, the reason why Mu Bai's seventh uncle came was precisely because of this matter.
"Mu Bai, the reason I, your seventh uncle, have come here is to see if... we can help the young people of the Muyue Kingdom find a way out through you. Although they are not geniuses, they are still very talented. If they cannot join other forces, could the Vast Heaven Holy Land help them find a solution... Even if they cannot become disciples of the Vast Heaven Holy Land, could you at least arrange a good livelihood for them?"
Mu Bai knew about what his seventh uncle had mentioned. In fact, his father had mentioned it briefly in several letters before, but of course, he was worried that Mu Bai would be affected by it, so he only mentioned it in passing.
The reason why my seventh uncle has come is probably because this matter has become quite troublesome and needs to be dealt with as soon as possible.
The problem is, Mu Bai knows that while the ordinary young people of the Muyue Kingdom have some abilities, their skills are still quite different from his own... So what should he assign them?
"Everyone says Chu Xinghe is a master strategist. Why don't you go and ask your Senior Brother Xinghe for help and see if he has any ideas?" said Uncle Qi.
Just as Uncle Qi finished speaking, Mu Bai saw Senior Brother Xinghe looked rather suspicious, appear at the spirit field from afar.
"Mu Bai greets Senior Brother Xinghe!" Mu Bai quickly stepped forward and bowed.
"Ah... Mu... Mu Bai... I'm fine... I just came to the spirit field to take a look... just to take a look..." Chu Xinghe looked at Mu Bai in front of him with a panicked expression...
What a coincidence... I came here to cause trouble, and the first thing I did was run into Mu Bai...
"This old man pays his respects to Lord Xinghe..." Mu Bai's seventh uncle also hurriedly tried to bow, but seeing the old man's advanced age, Chu Xinghe quickly stepped forward to help him up.
Upon learning that the man before him was Mu Bai's seventh maternal uncle, who had come to visit relatives, Chu Xinghe smiled and said, "You are Mu Bai's seventh maternal uncle, so naturally Xinghe should address you as Seventh Maternal Uncle. You are an elder, how can you bow to Xinghe... Xinghe greets Seventh Maternal Uncle..."
Chu Xinghe respectfully performed a junior's bow to Mu Bai's seventh uncle, as a junior.
Seeing the legendary Chu Xinghe bow to him, Seventh Uncle was so frightened that he dodged and weaved. After all, he was just an ordinary old man from the Muyue Kingdom, and in his eyes, someone like Chu Xinghe was like a god.
The fact that the man took the initiative to bow to him made Uncle Qi feel somewhat flattered.
Despite his excitement, seeing the legendary Chu Xinghe, who was said to be able to calculate everything perfectly, Mu Bai's seventh uncle got straight to the point. Without even Mu Bai stopping him, he told Chu Xinghe about all the problems that the Muyue Kingdom had recently encountered.
"Lord Xinghe..."
"Seventh Uncle, just call me Xinghe. You call me 'Sir,' but I, Xinghe, am not worthy of that!"
"Alright... Xinghe... everyone says you have unparalleled wisdom, you must help the children of our Muyue Kingdom this time!"
"Seventh Uncle, rest assured, this matter was due to Xinghe's oversight. Xinghe will certainly devise a perfect solution for the Muyue Kingdom..."
