Chapter 384: Chapter 292 Divine Wood Sect Changes_1

After hosting a banquet for E Yun and others, Chen Mobai invited friends like Qi Rui, Xi Jinghuo, and Qi Hou within the sect the next day.

After making each of them taste a cup of Rank-2 Jade Bamboo Spiritual Wine, they all praised it effusively.

Before departing, Chen Mobai instructed Zhuo Ming to gift each person a jar of Rank-1 wine.

On the third day, Chen Mobai went to visit the three Foundation Establishment leaders of the Spirit Plant Department with the wine.

Inspector Sun Gaochang, the senior leader, was given two jars, and although he wasn’t familiar with the other minister and deputy minister, he personally gifted each of them a jar of Rank-2 Jade Bamboo Spiritual Wine.

“Do you have more of this wine? I’ll buy all of it,” he said.

Sun Gaochang was a heavy drinker. After taking a sip, he couldn’t stop and quickly finished a jar with Chen Mobai. After the drink was finished, he wanted more but still had some sense left. He saved the remaining jar and didn’t open it.

“I have some more, but I haven’t delivered any to the Sect Leader yet. I also need to ask a favor from Minister Zeng of the Alchemy Department, so I need to deliver two jars there as well.”

Chen Mobai answered honestly, indicating that the Rank-2 Spiritual Wine could only be internally tasted at this time. Bigger production and selling would have to wait until the first batch of Jade Bamboo Spirit Rice matures.

“What a pity.”

Sun Gaochang sighed, then immediately pre-paid a deposit of a thousand Spirit Stones and reserved a large barrel once he heard that Jade Bamboo Spiritual Wine was well stocked.

Chen Mobai accepted without hesitation, promising to have it delivered by his apprentices.

“Junior brother Chen, you’re still within our Spirit Plant Department’s organization, right?”

After the gifts had been delivered and Chen Mobai was about to say goodbye and leave, Sun Gaochang stopped him and spoke abruptly.

“Yes, I wouldn’t have been so easily victorious in the sect competition if Inspector Sun hadn’t given me the Divine Wood Sword. If I hadn’t won, I probably wouldn’t have received the Foundation Building Pill and might still be at the ninth layer of Qi Cultivation, waiting hard for the next batch of Jade Marrow Golden Mushrooms to mature.”

Chen Mobai didn’t understand what Sun Gaochang meant, but being familiar with the superficial language from the time he spent every year living at his grandfather’s house, he expressed the gratitude he owed the Spirit Plant Department.

“Well, Chen, you know, among the twelve departments in the sect, each only has a position for three Foundation Establishment cultivators. If we three won’t leave, you’re permanently stuck with the benefits of an ordinary Foundation Establishment Elder, haven’t you thought about progressing further?”

Sun Gaochang had also nurtured Chen Mobai and recognized his character, so he spoke frankly.

“Do you mean, Inspector, for me to leave the Spirit Plant Department?”

“Ah, not at all. I’m suggesting you should be promoted. Chu Zuoshu, the Hall Master of the Reward Virtue Hall, looks highly on you. There would be some changes in the upper layer of the sect in a few years, some positions would be open and you can become an Inspection Envoy in the Reward Virtue Hall, and get promoted again when a position for Inspector in one of the twelve departments is open.”

Sun Gaochang’s words were intriguing. Changes were to happen in the upper levels of the sect? Chen Mobai exchanged a look with him and knew there would be no further explanation.

Although Chen Mobai was nominally mentored by Sun Gaochang, they’re, in fact, like water and gentlemen. Unlike the solid friendships with E Yun and Yuan Chiye which had started from nothing, Sun Gaochang had his own circle and was much older than Chen Mobai. Unless he completely committed to him, both of them would not be able to fully confide in each other.

His sudden talk was not Sun Gaochang’s idea. It should be that something was going to happen in the upper layers of the Divine Wood Sect, and someone wanted to involve him in the upfront battle power.

The person was also hinted at by Sun Gaochang, the Hall Master of Reward Virtue Hall, Chu Zuoshu.

Among the three halls and twelve departments in the Divine Wood Sect, the Spirit Plant Department was under the Reward Virtue Hall.

If Chu Zuoshu brings Chen Mobai up, it would conform to the rules, although Sun Gaochang had mentioned it first. The tactic was at least not offensive to Chen Mobai.

“Thank you, Inspector Sun and Hall Master Chu for your kindness, I’ll think about it carefully when I go back.”

Chen Mobai dedicated himself to cultivation most of the time. He spent most of his time with the Divine Wood Sect in Xiao Nanshan, so he was confused about the upper situation and dared not hastily answer.

“Very well, Chen, don’t forget my barrel of wine.”

Sun Gaochang personally sent Chen Mobai out. With a wide smile on his plump face, the two of them seemed like true bosom friends in front of others.

“Surely.”

After greeting his familiar friends in the Spirit Plant Department, Chen Mobai went to Shenmu Hall.

Because E Yun had given Meng Hong a heads-up in advance, he didn’t go fishing today and waited for Chen Mobai’s visit.

“Hmm, this wine is good. Didn’t you say you still have a barrel of it? Why did you only give me two jars?”

Meng Hong was not shy about accepting the opened jar. After a sip, his face turned rosy, and his whole demeanor became radiated. He looked like he had even younger by two years. freewebnøvel.coɱ

“If the Sect Leader needs, I will dig out that barrel and have it delivered to you.”

Chen Mobai still had a high regard for Meng Hong. After all, when he just established his Foundation, he gifted the Flying Sparrow Hairpin, Divine Wood Sword, and ten thousand Spirit Stones. He kept this kindness in his heart.

“Forget it, just saying. Just send over five jars.”

Meng Hong shook his head, then motioned for Chen Mobai to leave. He was going fishing.
