Corpse Burier: I Can Nourish Corpse

Chapter 598: Chapter 296: Thousand Strands of Demonic Qi

"Fellow Daoist, wait!"

He Changyi quickly called out.

It wasn’t because of Wen Jiu’s words, but because he dared not offend a Demon Cultivator, especially one from the Outer Path Hidden Demon Sect.

No matter the opponent’s background, the He Family thrived due to the support of the Demon Sect, and now with an uncertain future, provoking a Demon Cultivator would be too disadvantageous for the He Family.

"Fellow Daoist, the benefits my He Family can go without, but I still ask you to stay." He Changyi quickly took two steps at a time to reach the front of the Formless Demon Corpse.

Wen Jiu deliberately chuckled mockingly, fully playing the role of a Demon Cultivator, "Truly clueless, being able to work for me is your greatest benefit. My matters, like this Blood Corpse Mushroom and Evil Yin Spiritual Medicine, are not something your He Family can refuse."

"I, He Mou, am foolish, please forgive me, Fellow Daoist." He Changyi smiled apologetically while inviting the Formless Demon Corpse back into the house, "Being able to work for Fellow Daoist is something I earnestly seek. Regarding the matter of Demonic Evil Qi, I will do my utmost."

After courteously inviting the Formless Demon Corpse to sit, He Changyi poured tea while inquiring with a very agreeable attitude.

"May I know how to address Fellow Daoist?"

Wen Jiu reminded, "You don’t need to know so much. Knowing too much brings no benefit to your He Family."

"Yes, yes." He Changyi continued to smile apologetically, daring not to express anger, "It’s just that there’s one thing I don’t quite understand. As a Demon Cultivator of the Outer Path Hidden Demon Sect, wouldn’t it be more efficient to purchase Demonic Evil Qi directly from fellow sect members? I am just an outsider doing work for the Demon Sect, insignificant and lacking influence, truly..."

Wen Jiu asked in return, "Would you, He Changyi, inform all the He Family members of your work for the Outer Path Hidden Demon Sect?"

"Naturally not." He Changyi realized and did not dare to inquire further. Indeed, the more one knows about the Demon Sect, the more troublesome it becomes. Focusing on one’s tasks and being a useful person are the ways to survive, "However, I ask you to allow me some time, Fellow Daoist. Demonic Evil Qi is not much use to Fake Pill Demon Cultivators or Demon Pill Demon Cultivators and is actually harmful. It is usually used only for feeding demonic creatures or nurturing True Demons, which involves the existence of Demon Pill. It is easy to buy Demonic Evil Qi from one or two Demon Pill Cultivators, as not everyone likes to raise demonic creatures. But since you have come to my He Family, it’s clear you need more Demonic Evil Qi than just what one or two people can produce."

"You’re quite smart. Indeed, I need a lot, and for a long time." Wen Jiu pondered for a few moments and added, "A Fake Pill Demon Cultivator generates ten strands of Demonic Evil Qi monthly, and a Demon Pill Demon Cultivator can generate a hundred, while I currently need a thousand a month at least."

He has yet to start cultivating Celestial Yin Demon Blood Medicine and does not know the effect yet, but a thousand strands per month is considered a start.

This also gives the He Family some time.

He Changyi rejoiced, "If Fellow Daoist needs only a thousand a month at present, I wouldn’t say it’s guaranteed, but ensuring Seven Seven Eight Eight is certain. Moreover, if the Spirit Stones you offer are suitable, it will be possible to acquire even more in the future. However, in the recent one or two months, it’s definitely not possible, but if it’s urgent for Fellow Daoist, I have other methods to achieve it within the month, although it will certainly cost more."

"What method?"

"Directly purchase through the Dark Altar, but every Dark Altar is extremely concealed, and those Demon Pill Demon Cultivators are very cautious, rarely showing themselves. The number willing to trade with me is probably not large, so I can only rely on raising prices to buy. In the Silent Abyss, each strand of Demonic Evil Qi costs a hundred Middle-grade Yin Spirit Stones. Here, the price must increase by two to three levels."

"That would cost around 1.3 million Middle-grade Yin Spirit Stones for a thousand strands." Wen Jiu immediately dismissed this plan.

Just for a thousand strands, it would cost an extra three million Low-grade Spirit Stones a month.

Three million a month.

In ten months, that’s thirty million.

A huge loss.

Currently unable to squeeze Spirit Stones from the He Family, thirty million Low-grade Spirit Stones are by no means a small sum.

Of course.

The important thing is, he does not like to suffer losses.

"Fellow Daoist, what do you think?" He Changyi inquired again.

Wen Jiu shook his head, "I’ll give you time; think of a way to procure them from the Lifeless Abyss."

"Rest assured, Fellow Daoist, it won’t be long. My He Family sends a ship to the Lifeless Abyss every month. Next time, I will personally go and will surely finalize this matter. Since you don’t want anyone to know about this, I suggest not using Demonic Evil Qi from the Outer Path Hidden Demon Sect, only from Demon Pill Wanderers or other Demon Sect’s Demonic Evil Qi."

Upon hearing this suggestion, Wen Jiu smiled with satisfaction, understanding why the Outer Path Hidden Demon Sect was willing to let the He Family handle matters.

They know how to think.

They handle things beautifully.

They can even think of things he hadn’t considered.

It seems he has found the right place with the He Family.

"Not bad, your He Family is indeed very useful." Wen Jiu praised, controlling the Formless Demon Corpse.

He Changyi laughed obsequiously, "It’s my honor to work for you, Fellow Daoist."

"Swear a Silencing Spell, and don’t let this matter leak. Although I can’t solve that Demon Sound God for you right now, as long as you handle things well, it might not be impossible in the future. Of course, the premise is that your He Family must remain useful."

Despite the threat, Wen Jiu didn’t forget to offer He Changyi a pipe dream.

This pipe dream is different from before, leaving He Changyi no choice but to trust him.

As expected, He Changyi quickly nodded, "Rest assured, Fellow Daoist, the He Family will certainly not disappoint you."

"In two months, I shall return."

With these words said,

Wen Jiu controlled the Formless Demon Corpse to leave without lingering.

Half an hour after the Formless Demon Corpse left, He Changyi hurriedly descended to the underground to find the second Golden Core Cultivator of the He Family, the only other Golden Core Cultivator besides He Changyi—named He Qi.

At the same time, He Qi was also He Changyi’s great-granddaughter.
