Chapter 286: Netherworld Sect’s Bei Yining
The female cultivator’s words directly dampened Jiang Lianhan’s enthusiasm.
It also implied that people found Jiang Lianhan to be talkative.
Jiang Lianhan could only dejectedly bring the female cultivator back to Wang’an County.
If the other party hadn’t been here before, they might not have found their way.
However, upon arriving at Wang’an County and seeing its peculiar architectural style, the female cultivator was also stunned.
Perhaps she hadn’t traveled much, as this was the first time she had seen such a strange architectural style.
Jiang Lianhan quickly forgot that she might have found him too talkative and enthusiastically introduced the famous restaurant in their county town, which rogue cultivators from out of town would visit.
The female cultivator remained silent, and seeing this, Jiang Lianhan wisely left.
Upon returning to Wang’an County, he went to find Fan Guozhou.
Fan Guozhou was extremely busy in the game now, with too many things to oversee.
He was constantly running around all over Wang’an County.
Seeing Jiang Lianhan return, Fan Guozhou immediately asked, “What did you say to him?”
“I only said one sentence, and that turtle son grabbed my neck!” Jiang Lianhan said indignantly. “He’s like he’s sick, saying if I don’t give him a satisfactory answer next month, he’ll kill me directly! I’m just an ordinary disciple, how would I know where the Sect Master of the Flying Sparrow Sect went?”
Although everyone knew his whereabouts were currently unknown, they only knew he was out.
They had no idea where he went or what he looked like.
“The Fierce Eagle Sect wants to know the whereabouts of the Flying Sparrow Sect Master…” Fan Guozhou narrowed his eyes and pondered. It was likely due to a personal grudge with the Flying Sparrow Sect, or as the rumor from last time suggested, the Fierce Eagle Sect intended to do something to the Flying Sparrow Sect.
“Then we’ll have to wait until next month. Haven’t you reached the Late Qi Condensation Stage yet?”
“I should be soon,” Jiang Lianhan replied awkwardly. “It’s just that there have been so many things this month.”
In reality, he was an actor and had to maintain his primary job. When he went to work, he couldn’t log into the game.
He was slacking off in the game.
Fortunately, he only played minor roles with not much screen time.
Jiang Lianhan even had the terrifying thought of quitting his job for the game.
After all, reality was his primary life.
How could someone give up reality for a game!
But seeing others doing so well with live broadcasts, Jiang Lianhan was also a little envious.
After all, he knew that making a living through live broadcasts now was much better than his acting job.
It was just that he didn’t know how the System granted live broadcast qualifications; currently, only Lin Yuyu and Han Tian had them.
Fan Guozhou, however, said, “The System is about to open up live broadcast qualifications.”
Jiang Lianhan’s eyes widened. “How do you know?”
Fan Guozhou: “It just came out. Mu Qiu will also be live broadcasting. You just need to accumulate some points to purchase the qualification from the System.”
Jiang Lianhan couldn’t believe the condition was so simple. “Damn, they’re actually opening up live broadcast qualifications. How many points does it cost?”
Fan Guozhou: “Ten thousand.”
Jiang Lianhan: “…”
Cultivation Techniques aren’t even that expensive!
Ten thousand points could cover all the cultivation techniques!
Unfortunately, Jiang Lianhan had no choice but to consider how to exchange for it later.
The System wasn’t opening up the conditions without any restrictions.
Lin Yuyu and Han Tian’s previous live broadcasts were gifted qualifications, which also brought returns from the traffic pool.
These two had been in live broadcasting before, so their live broadcast effects were also good.
Other players were also free to broadcast live.
However, if one wasn’t professionally involved in this area, live broadcasting wouldn’t have much meaning.
After all, if every player could broadcast live, there would definitely be some broadcasts that were boring and no one would watch.
Providing a live broadcast window also consumed a certain amount of energy.
Players broadcasting live were definitely doing it primarily to make money.
Those willing to spend points to buy live broadcast qualifications would definitely want to specialize in this area.
Other aspects could be disregarded.
There were now players in the player community who had quit their jobs to work in the game, hunting Demonic Beasts to earn money, working non-stop all day, and selling excess points to other players.
For example, Wu Dahu and the others who entered the game at the beginning.
They had now confirmed they would form a team with Daoist Priest and others to establish a dedicated points studio.
It was the same model as other games.
It’s just that the studios in this game were more straightforward; they couldn’t rely on cheats, only on full-manual play.
But the income earned this way in a month was much better than their previous jobs, and they could continue playing the game.
Moreover, Liang Xueyao would ask them for fixed Spirit Materials, which he needed for Artifact Refining. As long as a sufficient quantity was reached, in addition to the value of the Spirit Materials themselves, they would also receive additional ordering funds from him.
These were all real-world transactions.
Although there weren’t many people yet, the Shattered Sect had already established a mature process for “brick-moving” that a game should have.
–
Bei Yining arrived at the Flying Sparrow Sect’s sect.
After announcing her arrival, she met Steward Tang.
Steward Tang was somewhat surprised to see Bei Yining. “Oh, Yining?”
Bei Yining nodded and took off her hooded robe. “Uncle Tang, long time no see.”
Steward Tang was a bit surprised. “I didn’t expect you to come to the Flying Sparrow Sect.”
The Netherworld Sect and the Flying Sparrow Sect rarely interacted.
The main reason was that the Netherworld Sect was also an Artifact Refining sect, and there would be competition between them.
Naturally, they seldom visited.
Moreover, the Netherworld Sect and the Flying Sparrow Sect were too far apart.
Steward Tang of the Flying Sparrow Sect recognized Bei Yining.
He had visited the Netherworld Sect more than ten years ago, accompanied by True Person Jing Que at the time.
Back then, the Bei Yining they saw was just a little girl.
Steward Tang looked at Bei Yining now with a slight sigh in his eyes. “How have you been all these years?”
“I’m doing well. I came this time to ask if the Flying Sparrow Sect has any Tier 4 Phantom Sea Bird bones.”
“You want that?” Steward Tang shook his head. “Phantom Sea Birds are difficult to kill, and our sect doesn’t have any extra at the moment.”
He didn’t say no, but the implication was that he wouldn’t sell it to her.
After all, the quantity was too small.
Bei Yining was not surprised and simply said “oh” indifferently.
Steward Tang sighed. “After all these years, are you still looking for that person?”
Bei Yining suddenly said, “I found him.”
Steward Tang was stunned. “You found him?”
Bei Yining nodded. “He joined the Extreme Saint Sect. I saw him in Liuxian City when I went to the Guanhai Sect to participate in a match.”
Upon hearing this, a hint of shock flashed across Steward Tang’s brow. “The Extreme Saint Sect…”
That was a Major Sect, on par with the Guanhai Sect.
Steward Tang looked at Bei Yining with some pity. “Yining, he is now a disciple of the Extreme Saint Sect. Learn to let go of what happened back then. You are so young, and your path ahead is still long. Perhaps one day, you can reach higher places, but the current Extreme Saint Sect is a behemoth, and you cannot contend with it.”
“Even… the Netherworld Sect wouldn’t allow you to act.”
Bei Yining remained silent.
After a while, she turned her head, and a trace of hatred finally appeared in her calm eyes.
But she had no way to express it.
