Convenience Of Duty

“A market? Of course, I haven’t even seen the market within the sect.”

Hearing this, Nan Shan immediately agreed.

It was like the market within the sect, which was fundamentally different from the shops outside.

Although it was possible to use spirit stones to buy elixirs, cultivation methods, and weapons that one needed, most of the time, it was in exchange. Even if it was in spirit stones, everyone was from the same sect, so the price was much fairer.

As for Nan Shan, the value of an item was not measured by spiritual stones, but by the multiple of investment in the system.

For example, the water element heart technique could only be cultivated by a few women.

Such a useless thing to him, but he had exchanged it for the nine tribulations mental cultivation method.

Even if the system did not grade this cultivation technique, just breaking through the first tribulation had brought Nan Shan a terrifying improvement!

If this cultivation technique was released outside, it would be enough to cause a war between sects to break out.

After agreeing to go to the market with Jiang Congshuang, Nan Shan had brought all the things he had. He might be able to exchange them for what he needed.

When they arrived at the market, Nan Shan realized that he had thought too simply.

The scale of this market was much larger than he had expected. Moreover, it was different from the exchange meet. From honorary disciples to true disciples, anyone could participate and the treasures exchanged were also different.

Because Nan Shan’s cultivation method was different from Jiang Congshuang’s, the items they needed were naturally different. After a short walk, the two of them split up.

Walking in the market, the dazzling array of goods made Nan Shan click his tongue in wonder.

However, he quickly discovered a fatal problem!

He wanted to buy something, but he had no money!

The system’s rewards were all bartering. It had never given him spiritual stones. In order to buy some necessities, Nan Shan had been spending money like dirt.

The remaining low-rank spiritual stones in his pocket could not even afford a bronze sword.

As for exchanging for cultivation methods, none of the items that appeared in the market were worth him using his own items to exchange for.

From the beginning to the end, Nan Shan saw Jiang Congshuang, who had returned with a full load.

Not only did she buy the weapons and pills she needed, but she also bought some pretty little jewelry for ornamentation.

There was a shiny gem hairpin in her hair. Thin tassels hung down and swayed with her steps. She was simply beautiful and made Nan Shan stare at her.

“What’s wrong? Are there no treasures that you’re interested in?” Jiang Congshuang looked at Nan Shan’s empty hands and could not help asking.

“Not yet.” Nan Shan was too embarrassed to say that it was because he had no money, so he could only give a perfunctory yawn.

“There’s no rush. The market will continue for a long time. There will be more good things as it goes on. Perhaps the elders will also participate in the final two days before it ends.”

Jiang Congshuang smiled.

Seeing that it was getting late and the market was about to close for the day, the two of them walked back, talking and laughing.

Nan Shan was very gentlemanly and helped Jiang Congshuang carry some of the clothes and jewelry she had bought.

After returning to his residence, Nan Shan tossed and turned, unable to sleep.

In fact, he had taken a fancy to a lot of useful little things. Even if he did not need them, he could keep them as investments.

However, he was helpless against a hero’s ability to earn a penny. He was now cleaner than his face.

Half cultivating and half distressed, he endured until dawn. Suddenly, Nan Shan jumped out of bed!

He smacked his head and finally remembered that he had a family!

Moreover, his family had quite a bit of wealth!

If he exchanged some money for spirit stones, it would be enough for him to squander in the market.

Nan Shan did not care about the elder who came to guide his cultivation chasing after him and ran all the way to the mission hall.

After obtaining the water element cultivation technique from the resource Hhall, he accepted the uniform and jade token of an Outer Sect disciple. There were rules in the sect.

Once they stepped on the path of cultivation, they had to completely cut off all ties with the mortal world. Therefore, it was not easy for Outer Sect disciples to return to their families. The only way they could take advantage of the loophole was to accept missions from the mission hall and take advantage of this opportunity to go to the mortal world.

Moreover, he had not exchanged for his reward after completing the last mission. This time, he could solve it at the same time.

He stepped onto the teleportation array and arrived at the mission hall with ease.

Perhaps it was because the sect had been more lively recently, and there were very few disciples who received missions. The mission hall, which was usually bustling with people, seemed a little empty. However, there was no need to line up.

Nan Shan walked straight in and saw the disciple behind the counter.

“Accept the mission or submit the mission?” After the disciple at the counter finished speaking in a formulaic manner, he finally noticed who had arrived!

He stared at Nan Shan for a long time. His perfunctory and impatient expression was instantly swept away, and he forced a smile at an extremely fast speed.

“Junior Brother Nan just showed off his brilliance in the Outer Sect examination, and you’re in such a hurry to take on another mission? I remember that you accepted an errand mission last time. Are you here to hand it in this time?”

The disciple at the counter came out from behind the counter. The respectful way he looked at Nan Shan was completely different from before.

“I’ll continue to accept missions as well. However, I wonder if there are any other missions. Is it convenient for me to take a look?”

Nan Shan did not mind. After all, in the sect, strength was the first and foremost iron law. He did not have the heart to get rid of the bad wind in the sect.

If he had the time, he might as well go home and get some spirit stones.

“Of course there is. However, since I have a mission to complete, I have to exchange for the mission reward from the last time before I can accept a new mission. I hope Junior Brother Nan can forgive me for the rules.”

The disciple at the counter said and took the token from Nan Shan with both hands.

As soon as he checked the completion rate, he could not help but reveal a surprised expression!

It was clearly a messenger mission, but the reward that appeared was more than 20 times higher than the reward of a mission of this level!

The authority of the disciple behind the counter was not high, so he could not see why, but from his experience, he guessed that his Junior Brother Nan had probably completed an even higher level task while delivering the letter.

Based on the scale of the reward, it was probably related to the annihilation of the Evil Sect!

The disciple at the counter knew that he was unable to handle such a task. He immediately apologized to Nan Shan and sent a message to his elder.

If he let such a living God of Wealth go because of his negligence, when the elders found out and blamed him, it would be enough to make him suffer.

Nan Shan waited for a long time, but his mission reward was not issued. Instead, the door of the mission hall opened slowly without wind.

A man in black clothes and a silver mask walked in step by step.

The mask only revealed a pair of eyes.

When their eyes met, Nan Shan could not help but frown.

He felt that this person’s gaze was too sharp, as if he could see through people’s hearts.
