"The Jade Pool Heavenly Palace? What are they doing here at our Demonic Sect?"
"We don't usually have any dealings with the Jade Pool Heavenly Palace, do we?"
The surrounding elders were filled with confusion.
The Jade Pool Heavenly Palace had always only recruited female disciples. They had never heard of them having a particularly good relationship with any faction, so why the sudden visit to their Demonic Sect for a martial exchange?
"I recall that our Sect Master seems to know the Palace Master of the Jade Pool Heavenly Palace. Could it be because of this connection that they want to come to our Demonic Sect for an exchange to strengthen the ties between our two sects?"
"It's possible. I heard that the Palace Master of the Jade Pool Heavenly Palace likes women, and even courted our Sect Master back in the day. I wonder if it's true."
"Alright, since they are coming for an exchange, we cannot neglect them. Let's make preparations early. Third Sister, I'll leave the reception arrangements to you."
The Great Elder spoke, finalizing the matter. Since both were top-tier factions, building a good relationship would naturally bring only benefits and no harm.
Hearing this, a mature and deeply charming woman dressed in a purple robe nodded. "Rest assured, Big Brother. Leave this matter to me."
"Dismissed."
Time quickly flew by, and a month passed.
At the sect square, near the Cultivation Tower.
Many disciples had already used up their Cultivation Pills, and their cultivation levels had significantly improved. They were preparing to come out, stretch their limbs, earn some spirit stones, and gain some experience before starting their next round of cultivation.
"Eldest Senior Brother's pills are truly amazing. It seems there really are no pill toxins. I haven't felt any discomfort at all."
A Foundation Establishment realm disciple walked out of the Cultivation Tower with joy on his face. After just a short month of cultivation, his cultivation had advanced by one level. At this rate, it wouldn't take many years for him to become a Golden Core realm cultivator.
Although Golden Core realm cultivators might not seem like much in a top-tier faction like the Nether Demonic Sect, in remote areas, they would be considered patriarch-level figures.
"Yeah, in just one month, I went straight from the third level of Qi Condensation to the sixth level. My cultivation speed is practically soaring! And there are zero side effects."
Gurgle, gurgle...
Just as he finished speaking, the Qi Condensation disciple felt a sudden chill in his stomach.
The next second, a wave of agonizing cramps struck him, as if something was trying to force its way out of his intestines. The disciple's face instantly twisted in pain.
"Oh no, I need to go use the restroom!"
With no time to think about the cause, he clenched his buttocks and ran quickly toward his residence, not daring to sprint too fast for fear of accidentally leaking something.
"What the hell?"
The Foundation Establishment cultivator beside him was somewhat bewildered. "We've already stepped onto the path of cultivation, how can he still get diarrhea?"
Just as he was puzzled, his own face gradually twisted the very next instant. An indescribable cramp struck from within his stomach, and a layer of goosebumps immediately crawled over his skin.
"Crap!"
He immediately dashed toward the outer sect, found a latrine used by the outer servant disciples, and rushed inside.
Pfft-splash-splash-splash... Pfft-pfft!
After a hearty and torrential eruption, a look of sheer enjoyment appeared on his face. Was there anything more satisfying than the feeling of release after enduring to the absolute limit?
"So the so-called 'no pill toxins' means expelling them from the body in this manner. Eldest Senior Brother, you really are..."
After expelling the filth, he clearly felt his body become much lighter. He had probably flushed out a significant amount of the pill toxins that had accumulated in his body over the years.
And on this very day, every single Qi Condensation and Foundation Establishment cultivator who walked out of the Cultivation Tower failed to escape the fate of becoming a spraying warrior.
Although this effect also applied to cultivators at the Golden Core realm and above, they were Golden Core cultivators after all. Dealing with bodily filth was very easy for them; they didn't have to resort to the most primitive methods like the Foundation Establishment and Qi Condensation disciples.
"Senior Brother Li Yu, so this is how the Cultivation Pills expel pill toxins. Why didn't you tell us in advance?"
When the numerous Qi Condensation and Foundation Establishment disciples came to buy their next batch of Cultivation Pills, their eyes were full of resentment.
Regarding this, Li Yu felt a bit embarrassed. He also hadn't known that the Cultivation Pills would expel pill toxins in such an ingenious way. His senior brother hadn't told him beforehand either!
No wonder Eldest Senior Brother told him he could occasionally give the disciples a discount.
"Ahem, I'm sure everyone knows how incredibly difficult it is to refine a perfect pill. For Eldest Senior Brother to come up with such an ingenious method is already a heaven-defying feat. Everyone should learn to be content. By the way, Eldest Senior Brother said that from now on, every three months, there will be a promotional event for the Cultivation Pills, selling them at a twenty percent discount off the original price."
"Holy crap! Eldest Senior Brother is truly... too good to us! He's even giving us a discount!"
"Where else could you find such an Eldest Senior Brother? Only our Demonic Sect would have an Eldest Senior Brother who cares so much for his disciples!"
"Eldest Senior Brother is awesome! Compared to how good Eldest Senior Brother is to us, this tiny flaw in the Cultivation Pill is not even worth mentioning!"
"What flaw? This is clearly a little feature specially added out of consideration for the poor digestion of Qi Condensation and Foundation Establishment disciples, alright?"
"Exactly! This is a welfare benefit from Eldest Senior Brother. Even if it's a laxative, I would praise it for making me poop fast and loud. I suggest that constipated disciples buy more of them."
Very quickly, this batch of pills was once again swept completely clean.
In the face of absolute efficacy and discounts, what did a tiny flaw matter? There were naturally sensible people who would defend it.
On the other side, after a full month of sleepless research, Mo Tianxiao had finally found a substitute material for the Dragon Blood Ginseng.
Hearing the continuous string of notification sounds ringing in his mind again, he knew that the tiny side effect of the pills was starting to kick in.
Although the Villain Points awarded weren't much, no matter how small a mosquito is, it's still meat. Not to mention, the Demonic Sect had tens of thousands of disciples, and there were countless disciples below the Foundation Establishment realm. Added together, the profit was quite good.
Moreover, this was a sustainable income.
"Next, I can consider collaborating with the Alchemy Hall. It doesn't matter if I earn a little less money; I need to free up my time."
What he lacked were Villain Points and Destiny Points. As for spirit stones, he couldn't possibly use them all.
Not long after, Li Yu came to find him with the spirit stones.
"Senior Brother, here are the spirit stones for this month."
Feeling that the aura around Li Yu was slightly stronger than before, Mo Tianxiao nodded in satisfaction.
"Li Yu, from next month onwards, you can just go directly to the Alchemy Hall to collect the pills. After deducting the costs, split the spirit stones earned fifty-fifty with the Alchemy Hall. As for my share, you don't need to come find me every month. Just keep it with you. I am giving you the authority to freely mobilize these spirit stones to secretly cultivate some trustworthy disciples with good talent."
Mo Tianxiao instructed Li Yu, letting him freely control the profits from the Cultivation Pills.
He had no use for so many spirit stones anyway; using them to cultivate a batch of die-hard loyal disciples was perfect.
Although they might not be needed now, what if they played a huge role one day?
Always making foolproof preparations was exactly what a minor villain should do.
"Yes!"
Li Yu didn't ask too many questions. Regardless of what his senior brother's goals were, he only knew that his senior brother would not harm him, let alone mistreat him, and that was enough.
Leaving so many spirit stones with him was such a heavy trust. Since his senior brother trusted him so much, he absolutely had to cultivate a group of super enforcers for his senior brother!
