"Fort Master, no need to search anymore, I found his head here! He should be thoroughly dead!" At this moment, a burly man from afar shouted.
"Fort Master, I found his hand here!"
"I found his foot here!"
More and more people discovered the remains of Duan Shuiliu's body, which calmed Ye Feng's mood.
It was his first time hunting an Immortal with a Mortal body, and he wasn't 100% confident.
"Good, very good!"
Ye Feng was overjoyed and began to instruct his subordinates to continue searching.
"Everyone, search for what good things this Immortal might have dropped after his death. There might be a hundred or eighty taels of gold."
"If not gold, then Spirit Stones! Spirit Stones can be exchanged for a lot of gold!"
"Immortals have something called a Storage Pouch on them, so pay attention to that!"
A dozen people searched for nearly half an hour before they thoroughly turned over the thatched hut's ruins. They even extended their search to a radius of two hundred meters around the ruins, all to ensure not a single blown-away item was missed.
The retrieved items, even the Immortal's body remains, were brought back to Black Wind Stronghold's Hall of Justice and placed in the center of the hall.
"Fort Master, this Immortal's bones are very hard. In my opinion, we can use his bones to make some weapons. I want these Immortal bones; you all can deal with the rest. As for the money and valuables, don't forget my share."
The Third Master suggested.
"Alright, no problem. As for this Immortal's bones, Third Master, you can take people to deal with them now!"
Ye Feng nodded and instructed.
"Yes!"
The Third Master, Liu Xiaoqing, responded and then called his people over to the pile of roasted meat bones, starting to move them outside.
Within Black Wind Stronghold, there were 5 masters, each leading a small team. At this time, Ye Feng was the Great Master.
If it weren't for his personal martial prowess being the strongest in the entire fort, capable of overwhelming the other masters, he wouldn't have been able to sit in the position of Great Master without much support from younger brothers.
They used to wonder why his martial cultivation was so fast, but now everyone in the fort knew: it was because he was the only one with a Spiritual Root for Cultivation!
If he could cultivate Immortality, then cultivating martial arts was even easier.
Returning to his own Liu San Mansion with the roasted meat bones, the Third Master, Liu Xiaoqing, immediately began to arrange for people to clean them.
"Third Master? Why clean this stuff? Can't we just use a knife to cut it off?" A subordinate asked in surprise.
"No brains, huh? Others might not want this meat, but we do!"
"Why is the Great Master so strong? It's because he has a Spiritual Root. This Immortal is even more powerful, so his flesh and blood are definitely a great tonic! If we eat them, even if we don't grow a Spiritual Root, our martial arts will definitely greatly increase!"
Liu Xiaoqing fiercely slapped the subordinate's head.
"Ah, this, it can be like this?"
"Now that you know, why are you still standing there? Hurry up and wash them clean! I don't want to eat ash! Or dirt!"
......
Inside the Hall of Justice, Ye Feng continued to examine the pile of items with the other three masters.
They were all bandits and mountain brigands, and what they feared most was an unfair distribution of spoils!
"Third Master has already chosen. Now, let's categorize the items here again."
"300 taels of gold, 34 Spirit Stones, 12 various Medicinal Pills, a small tripod cup, a jade talisman, a Sect token, and one Immortal Sword. All these items exploded out of that Storage Pouch."
"This Sect token, and the tattered Immortal clothes, these two things we cannot keep. We must burn them, otherwise, if we're targeted by that Cultivation Sect, we'll be finished."
Ye Feng used a stick to separate the items.
"Great Master, you said Spirit Stones can be exchanged for gold. How much gold can one Spirit Stone be exchanged for?" At this moment, the Second Master asked.
"It could be 10 taels, or it could be 100 taels. It mainly depends on whether there's an urgent need. Spirit Stones are the common currency of the Cultivation World, and gold is our Mortal currency. If we can find those who are not short of money, we can sell them for 100 taels."
Upon hearing this, everyone present became excited.
"100 taels!"
"Hiss! We're rich!"
"We're rich! So now we have over three thousand taels here!"
Currently, besides Ye Feng, no one else had a Spiritual Root, and thus could not cultivate Immortality. Naturally, they thought of making money. As long as they had money, they could buy all sorts of good things and live a comfortable life.
"Ahem, as for the gold and Spirit Stones, we'll divide them last. But let's divide the other items first. I'll take this jade talisman."
Ye Feng lightly coughed, then took the jade talisman.
According to his previous agreement with this Immortal Duan Shuiliu, once he helped the other party complete the task, he would give him this jade talisman.
With this jade talisman, he would be able to go to Xuantian Sect to become a disciple and begin his path of Cultivation.
"Great Master, you still want to go cultivate Immortality?" Seeing Ye Feng's choice, the Second Master, Guo Dongfeng, asked.
"Yes, I want to go cultivate Immortality. No matter what, I must try. After I leave, I will rely on all of you masters to support each other and not let our Black Wind Stronghold lose its reputation!" Ye Feng did not hide his intentions.
"Absolutely, we definitely won't let Black Wind Stronghold decline!" The Second Master, Guo Dongfeng, patted his chest and assured him.
"How about this, Great Master, you can just take all the Cultivation-related items. We'll just divide this gold and Spirit Stones. The journey is long, Great Master, you should take some travel expenses, it should be enough, but you must leave most of it!" The Fourth Master, Zhao Youqian, eagerly suggested.
"Yes, yes, yes, Great Master, you're going to cultivate Immortality. You'll definitely get more and better things in the Sect, so there's no need for us to contend for this money." The Fifth Master, Yu Chunyu, also chimed in, his eyes fixed on the Spirit Stones and gold, wishing he could have them all.
"Alright, how about this: I'll take 20 taels of gold and 4 Spirit Stones. You all can divide the rest. Old Third has already taken the Immortal bones, so you can give him a little less. You all discuss it." Ye Feng weighed it for a moment before making a decision.
"Good!"
"No problem!"
All the masters agreed.
Subsequently, Ye Feng took 20 taels of gold, 4 Spirit Stones, and some other items from the pile.
After he had taken his share, the other masters eagerly began to divide the Spirit Stones and gold.
Ultimately, the three masters agreed that each would receive 8 Spirit Stones and 80 taels of gold, with the remainder going to the Third Master.
