8. Joining the Team!
“What are you asking this for?” After speaking, Gong Musheng asked with some confusion, “Could it be that you want to take over this order for your mom?”
Gong Yiling shrugged helplessly. “Do I look like the kind of person who would kill myself?”
“You’re not tired of living—wait?” Gong Musheng, after complaining, immediately reacted. “The person Murong Jing wants to kill is you?”
“To be precise, it’s this identity I’m playing.” Gong Yiling then briefly told Gong Musheng about what had happened during this period.
It was one thing not to say it, but once she did, Gong Musheng and Feng Lili, who had just walked in, couldn’t help but look at each other.
Not to mention the twists and turns of the story, just the name of the Heavenly Evil was something they had never heard of.
“That Heavenly Sin in the Ghost Essence Crystal, what is it? I’ve heard Ah Sheng mention it a little.” Feng Lili said, “Such an ominous thing, is there really more than one?”
“I know of three names now, and there are several more without names.” Gong Yiling explained, “Of course, one is already gone now.”
“Unbelievable.” Feng Lili sighed and said, “The once glorious Mingjue Sect was actually just a pawn of that Heavenly Evil to break its seal.”
“Even more unbelievable,” Gong Musheng naturally took over the conversation, “such a guy was actually defeated by you?”
“Correction.” Miss Gong raised her hand and retorted at this time, “It wasn’t me, but Bi Xiao and Bi Yao. If it weren’t for their self-sacrifice, what could I, a mere Earthly Nether realm soldier, do?”
“But you had the guts to fight head-on with a beast that had almost destroyed the entire continent.” Gong Musheng rubbed her head and said, “No one else would have this ability. They would have learned from Murong Jing and hidden away to await their fate.”
“Courage has always been my strong point.”
Otherwise, there would be no such thing as playing tricks on Shangguan Long, Yin Wuzong, and the like.
“And that Murong Jing.” Gong Musheng, after retracting her hand, moved the teacup on the table with some disdain. “I thought he was at least a ruthless person with some brains, but I didn’t expect him to actually dare to provoke a woman who had raised the banner of the old sect, and who seemed to be quite real.”
“Since he believes you are from the old sect, if the old sect is really hidden from the world, how can his move really clear his name? It’s just that the old sect is now just a blank sheet of paper—”
“Not for long.”
Gong Yiling’s sudden words made Gong Musheng stunned. “What do you mean?”
“Because the old sect,” Gong Yiling smiled and blinked, “I already have plans to rebuild it.”
Feng Lili: “…?”
Gong Musheng: “…!?”
This news was no less explosive than the matter of the Heavenly Evil for these two.
After a long time, Gong Musheng finally asked seriously, “Does your mother know you’re going to do this?”
Gong Yiling shook her head. “I don’t know. I haven’t told her yet. I plan to tell her next time I see her.”
“Since it’s your well-thought-out idea, then I, as your Little Auntie, can’t say much.” Gong Musheng’s acceptance speed was actually very fast.
Although she still felt that it was a bit unbelievable that this girl dared to do this, she still expressed her support.
“But it’s not that easy to establish a sect. Including pills, divine weapons, magic treasures, and more importantly, the sect-protecting formation, and possibly a sect-protecting beast. If you haven’t prepared these things, I can help you think of a way.”
Mmm, what everyone thought was about the same. Resources were always the most crucial thing that restricted the development of a sect. But who would have thought that she had plenty of these?
“If I say now that I have obtained the secret treasures of the Desolate God Ancient Kingdom,” Gong Yiling asked with a smile, “do you think I’m still short of money, Little Auntie?”
As soon as she finished speaking, a bunch of exclamation marks even popped up on Gong Musheng’s head.
“Ling’er, ah, no, Boss Ling, Boss Ling, do you think I can be your accountant? Give me all your secret treasures, and I guarantee you a 30-40% increase every year.”
“In front of a junior,” Feng Lili patted her shoulder impatiently, “can’t you save yourself some face?”
“Can’t a person have their own pursuits? Otherwise, life would be so boring.” Gong Musheng didn’t feel ashamed at all, but shrugged very innocently. “And I’m doing real work, not just slacking off in an idle position.”
“Don’t you think so, Boss Ling?”
“Ahem…” Miss Gong had actually guessed that this money-grubbing aunt would have this reaction. In fact, she had planned to use this method to lure Gong Musheng from the beginning.
“If Little Auntie can be an elder of the old sect, I’ll let you arrange all the talismans, magic treasures, and spiritual and immortal artifacts. You’ll also be the head of the treasure pavilion. How about it?”
“Good… good—but, but—” Gong Musheng actually discovered the key in these words. “An elder? What elder?”
Gong Yiling did not speak directly, but raised an eyebrow with a hidden meaning. “The highest immortal artifact seems to be mid-grade—”
“Deal!”
Seeing this scene, Feng Lili could only look at her, a helpless smile on her lips.
And when she looked back, she found that Gong Yiling was now also looking at her.
“What’s wrong?”
“There are many high-grade pills with lost formulas and some lost ancient medical books in that secret treasure.”
Gong Yiling simply and clearly took out the same trick. “If Senior Feng is willing, do you think the position of an elder and the head of the pharmacy hall of the Great One Engineering Sect is suitable for you?”
The so-called “rich and powerful” was about what Gong Yiling was now.
Even though she knew that the Ghost Physician Feng Lili was used to being free, and more than one sect had extended an olive branch to her, hoping to get the full support of such a medical and pharmaceutical genius, but in the end, she had refused without hesitation.
However, understanding was one thing. Miss Gong’s confidence was not small now.
For this kind of physician, fame and fortune were just bullshit. But some wonderful medical classics, this kind of physician was still unwilling to give up.
Of course, for Feng Lili, the medical classics and pills were just a small part. The thing that really attracted her was not these, but something more substantial—
For example, a certain matter, and for example, a certain person.
“I agree.” Feng Lili nodded. “But before that, I have a condition.”
“What condition?”
“That girl with you, I want to discuss some medical matters with her—”
“No problem!”
Although Yan Chuyue was not here at the moment, Miss Gong still made this decision for her without hesitation.
Selling people is just that confident!
Not the first time her mom was tricked into trying to kill her, and I doubt it will be the last
