Before Li Yuren left, he received a new commission: to collect Heavenly Devil Qi.

However, this commission was not just for him. Soon, Red Leaf Ridge sent the commission to Su Family Village.

As for the Yan Family, did you feel offended? They didn't even think about it, and immediately posted it in Fangshi.

Even the smallest person in the Yan Family knows that the family has created a retreat in Red Leaf Ridge, so how can he dare to care about it? Yan Family Market In addition to issuing commissions, he also increased the reward amount.

The excess cost will be borne by the Yan Family, and the main focus is Red Leaf Ridge who fully cooperates.

After another half day, the entire Eastern Prosperity Continent market received the news: Red Leaf Ridge offered a high price to acquire Heavenly Devil Qi.

As for the use? Of course, it must be explained to avoid unnecessary malicious speculation.

However, Red Leaf Ridge also stated that the research progress of detecting the Heavenly Devil Qi magic weapon cannot be guaranteed, and it may take a long time.

In fact, Dongsheng now has many forces developing this kind of magic weapon, and there are even individuals who are conducting research on it.

But like Red Leaf Ridge, it is really the first company to publicly offer a reward for the acquisition of Heavenly Devil Qi.

This news gave those cultivators responsible for inspections more motivation.

Not only are they protecting their own people and industry, but they may also earn some extra money if they encounter Heavenly Demon.

A few days after the reward was issued, Zhu Jiayi came to visit again, asking to see Ridge Lord Qu.

After seeing Qu Jianlei, he was silent for five seconds before asking, "You didn't go to Central Province?"

It had been less than seven months since he last said goodbye to Duan Bowen, and it was basically impossible to make a round trip to Central Province.

"Gone," Qu Jianlei replied in a deep voice, but did not explain more.

Zhu Jiayi took a deep breath after hearing this, but couldn't help but ask, "Bowen Fellow Daoist... are you okay?"

He was really worried that Red Leaf Ridge and Duan Bowen had done something unpleasant.

When he heard that Emerald Screen Mountain was trading with Red Leaf Ridge, he came into contact with Ridge Lord Qu, and his scalp felt a little numb.

"It's not bad," Qu Jianlei replied casually, "Shortly after arriving, we parted ways."

Zhu Jiayi became more and more curious, "Then why did you come back so fast?"

Qu Jianlei understands what he means, but he will definitely not answer directly, "Because things went smoothly."

Is this what I'm asking? Zhu Jiayi is a little helpless, but he also knows what the other party's attitude means.

Then he expressed his intention: Zhu Family also wanted to purchase a batch of mortal weapons.

His purchase volume was similar to Emerald Screen Mountain, but he asked one more question: Can those unfriendly forces come to buy?

Qu Jianlei rolled his eyes at him, "Holy Mother... you may not understand this word, but why should I care about their life and death?"

However, Zhu Jiayi said: Once they become demonized, won't the pressure you face become greater? Qu Jianlei smiled disapprovingly, "Isn't that just right to eliminate them?"

Zhu Jiayi's mouth twitched twice, but in the end he said nothing more.

The day after he left, three Golden Core Realm came to Su Family Village and brought samples of Heavenly Devil Qi.

The three real people worked together to hunt down a small group of Heavenly Demon, but the team was also seriously damaged.

Two Foundation Establishment Realm were demonized and died, and one Foundation Establishment Realm was infected by Demonic Qi and is now in danger.

They brought two bottles of Seal, which contained the remaining breath after the death of the Golden Core Realm Heavenly Demon.

The three people saw the real person Huan Wei and said that they could ask for a smaller reward, or even none, but they hoped that Red Leaf Ridge would save people.

Huan Wei's spiritual consciousness connected with Jiao Daoren and said expressionlessly, "Sorry, Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator... is not worth saving."

The three Golden Core Realm were shocked when they heard this. They heard clearly that what the other party said was not "cannot be saved", but "not worth it".

An elegant-looking Golden Core Realm was furious, "Heavenly Demon is our Dongsheng's common enemy, right?"

However, Huan Wei is also a casual cultivator and will not accept this kind of moral kidnapping at all.

He replied expressionlessly, "You don't even know the cost of saving lives, so why are you talking about this?"

Ruya Golden Core Realm has a bad temper, "He is a cultivator who is on the front line against Heavenly Demon. What do you mean by the cost?"

"When it comes to Heavenly Demon, he will be on the front line everywhere," Huan Wei's face remained expressionless.

"He fought against Heavenly Demon. That is his business. We have offered a reward for Heavenly Devil Qi, but it does not include saving people."

Is this attitude cold-blooded? It's really not the case. Red Leaf Ridge has seriously discussed this issue internally.

Can the team save the semi-demon? It's really possible, as long as the time of being soaked is not particularly long.

If Tian Yin had not gone into retreat, she would be the most suitable candidate.

Moreover, she is far from the only one in the team who has mastered Light Art. However, of the same level of spells, Tian Yin has the best effect.

Led by Paranoid, Duo Gan and Jing Yuexin, they are firmly opposed to arbitrary treatment.

They believe that this is a war for all people, and it is fate to die on the battlefield or be demonized.

Those cultivators who have been rescued from demon addiction can indeed return to Frontline after treatment, but the difficulty of treatment is not low.

Paranoid believes that since the person did not run away after being demonized and could be rescued by his companions, his companions have a chance to complete the last hit.

Although the truth is a bit cruel, this is war.

Once Heavenly Demon fully invades, Red Leaf Ridge will not be able to save so many demonized people even if all members of Red Leaf Ridge are mobilized day and night.

Therefore, the definition of the team by the three of them Nascent Soul Realm is to complete combat missions, not to save lives and heal the wounded.

Qinghu said that he didn't care, while Old Lady Jia said calmly, "If you have money, treat it. If you don't have money, wait for death."

Even if an imperial soldier becomes disabled while participating in the war, the empire will not pay Limb Regeneration. There must be a threshold for treatment!

Qu Jianlei couldn't bear it, but Jing Yuexin asked him, "Is there no upper limit to your aura?"

Therefore, the result of the team discussion is that we will never save people unless it is absolutely necessary.

Another pale-faced Golden Core Realm asked, "How many spiritual stones are needed to treat him?"

"It has nothing to do with spirit stones," Huan Wei replied calmly, and then asked, "Why don't you try somewhere else?"

"At least Golden Core Realm needs to take action, and we need to be familiar with Light Art," Ruya Golden Core Realm sighed, "We have no way."

Huan Wei was annoyed when he heard this, "You think it's normal if others don't treat you, but you insist on us treating you. Do you think we are easy to bully?"

The three Golden Core Realm really didn't think so. They just felt that they sent Heavenly Devil Qi. Doesn't this count as cause and effect?

But think about what the other party said before, and it is indeed the truth: it is nothing more than one party offering a reward and the other hunting for it.

It's just an ordinary business relationship, and it may not be appropriate to talk about anything else.

The pale Golden Core Realm made a last attempt, "If we can save him, his life will be Red Leaf Ridge's."

Huan Wei was startled for a moment, then slowly shook his head, "Let's think of another way. Do you know how many people want to work for Red Leaf Ridge now?"

Some cultivators like freedom and don't want to take refuge in big forces, but there are also cultivators who want to be able to embrace thick legs.

Not to mention that Red Leaf Ridge's record has shown that they can effectively resist Heavenly Demon. There are really too many people who want to join them.

In fact, Huan Wei is not unsympathetic, but he is very aware of the troubles that will follow, so he prompts "think of other ways."

The three Golden Core Realm totaled it up, and then asked tentatively, "We should be the first group to receive the reward, right?"

After receiving a positive reply, Ruya Golden Core Realm said simply, "You made an exception to save him, which can enhance the spread of the reward."

Don't mention it, this reason is really good. Three cobblers can stand up to Zhuge Liang, let alone three Golden Core Realm.

The final result was: the bounty was symbolically reduced by one spiritual stone, and Red Leaf Ridge took action to save the Foundation Establishment Realm cultivator.

Fortunately, it was just Foundation Establishment Realm. Five days later, he walked out of Red Leaf Ridge on his own.

This person's face is still quite pale, and his figure is even more unstable, but the relaxed expression on his face cannot fool anyone.

However, when someone asked which Great Expert on Red Leaf Ridge did it, he shook his head and said that he had no knowledge.

The following facts proved that the scruples of Paranoid and others were not just made up out of thin air.

One day later, cultivators infected by Demonic Qi were sent to Su Family Village, hoping that Red Leaf Ridge could rescue them.

Two groups came on the same day, and they continued to come since then.

Although the occurrence of the Eastern Prosperity Continent and Heavenly Demon is still sporadic, the total number of people infected by Demonic Qi is quite large.

What is particularly worth pointing out is that at the beginning, the patient's relatives and friends believed that the cost of treatment for Red Leaf Ridge was very low.

Of course, one spiritual stone is definitely not enough, but it's not too high, right? However, Huan Wei and Ba Jiudao don't think so. They think these people are just pretending to be confused.

Red Leaf Ridge is definitely not the only one who can get rid of Demonic Qi on the Eastern Prosperity Continent. Have these people never asked for help before? Since similar attempts have been made, isn't it bullying to still hope that the cost of Red Leaf Ridge's treatment will not be too high?

Moreover, some of these patients have been infected with Demonic Qi for too long, making treatment more difficult.

Under such circumstances, under the guise of "Heavenly Demon is a public enemy of cultivators" and seeking cheap treatment, do you really think that Red Leaf Ridge owes someone? As time went by, these people also realized that they could no longer take advantage, so they began to raise prices for treatment.

But at this time, even though these two Golden Core Realm were banned, they all refused on their own initiative.

They said - Red Leaf Ridge needs to gather enough energy to prepare for war, you'd better ask others to go.

Those who are impatient try to encourage everyone to join forces and put pressure on Red Leaf Ridge.

As a result, Huan Wei and Ba Jiudao took action without hesitation, saying that no trouble was allowed around Red Leaf Ridge.

At this time, Red Leaf Ridge welcomed a new visitor - Le Tong True Immortal of the Seven Stars Sect.

Le Tong had previously promised Qu Jianlei to recover Seven Stars Needle Manual, but later he failed to fulfill his promise and was too embarrassed to show up.

But this time, he had to come because the previous harassment by two small groups of Heavenly Demon caused panic in the entire Seven Stars Sect territory.
