The Eerie Immortal Path: Begin by Devouring Fairy Flesh

Sandra Ye carefully "examined" the Daoist Art "A Single Tree Becomes a Pair" and then returned the jade slip to Brandon Jiang with satisfaction.

"Brandon, you were overthinking. The incident happened too quickly for Dorothy Lin to alter the Daoist Art. There's no problem with it."

Brandon replied earnestly, "Regardless of whether there's an issue, I can only be at ease once Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix has personally checked it."

Sandra smiled, her gaze towards Brandon growing more approving. "You're a sensible and considerate child. You've handled the matter with Dorothy Lin very well."

Brandon quickly responded, "Without your support, Senior Sister, I might never have found the evidence and would still be in the dark."

Sandra nodded slightly and looked coldly at Dorothy Lin. "Brandon spared your life this time. Learn from Brandon's magnanimity. If you continue to be petty, you'll never achieve great things and will only bring shame to your Lin Family!"

Dorothy's expression changed several times before she finally nodded. "Yes, I will learn from Junior Sister Brandon."

"Leave now."

"Yes!"

Dorothy slowly retreated, and the matter finally came to an end.

Brandon was very satisfied with the outcome. Although Dorothy Lin would certainly not let it go and would seek revenge in the future, her retaliation would be limited to what a Qi Refining stage disciple of the Lin Family could muster, which was much less significant compared to the entire Lin Family.

Aside from this small hidden danger, Brandon's gains were unexpectedly substantial. One of them was the top-tier auxiliary Daoist Art "A Single Tree Becomes a Pair" for the Qi Refining stage. More importantly, through this incident, he had significantly improved his standing with Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix.

He estimated that his current position in Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix's heart was already about seventy percent of Yan Baobao's level.

As for why he chose a Daoist Art as compensation from Dorothy Lin, the reason was simple. The Lin Family's top-tier Daoist Arts for the Qi Refining stage were far more valuable than some mortal resources or alchemical pills, and since he excelled in Daoist Arts, choosing one would yield the greatest benefit.

Although he was currently in dire need of mortal resources to heal Chu Jun, if he publicly demanded a large amount of mortal resources from Dorothy Lin, it would attract too much attention and make it difficult to get them to Chu Jun.

Moreover, he could sell off defective talisman-making materials to steadily obtain a large amount of mortal resources. In just a few days, he could gather enough to heal Chu Jun's injuries.

As for the remaining forty thousand mortals, they were just a reserve for any future injuries Chu Jun might sustain, and he could accumulate them slowly.

In the following days, Brandon threw himself into his work as usual. Sandra Ye naturally advised him to rest, but he righteously refused, which made Sandra look at him with newfound respect.

Brandon wasn't passionate about work; he just couldn't pass up the opportunity to sell defective talisman-making materials today.

During the process of making talisman materials, Brandon quietly gathered all the defective materials and put them into his storage bag.

Because his skill in making materials was poor, he accumulated more defective materials in a day than others did in several days!

If anyone else did this, Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix would have killed them long ago, but Brandon was different. Even if he did a terrible job, Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix would praise him for his great progress.

By the afternoon, the talisman-making class ended, and Brandon left Purple Lotus Peak with a bag full of defective materials.

Through the sales channels of other children on Purple Lotus Peak, Brandon soon met an elite Qi Refining disciple studying under Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix and successfully sold the defective materials, earning over a thousand medicinal people.

With this huge profit, Brandon returned to Green Leaf Peak.

Meanwhile, in a room on Purple Leaf Peak, Dorothy Lin was throwing a fit.

"That damned Brandon! She extorted the 'A Single Tree Becomes a Pair' Daoist Art from my Lin Family! She's courting death! She's simply courting death!!!"

In front of Dorothy Lin knelt a white-robed disciple who looked to be in her twenties.

She advised worriedly, "Miss Dorothy, I've been on Purple Lotus Peak for so many years, and apart from Yan Baobao, I've never seen Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix favor someone so much. Brandon has already gained power! We absolutely cannot act rashly!"

"Although 'A Single Tree Becomes a Pair' is precious, it's only at the Qi Refining stage. It's worlds apart from 'A Single Tree Becomes a Grove' and 'A Single Tree Becomes a Forest.' Even if Brandon and Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix learn it, it's not a big deal. You must consider the bigger picture!"

Dorothy gritted her teeth. "Of course, I know that I can't openly move against Brandon, but I can't swallow this anger!"

"Susan Lin, from now on, whenever Brandon is on Purple Lotus Peak, keep a close eye on her! I refuse to believe that with her power on Purple Lotus Peak, she won't make any mistakes!"

"Once she slips up, gather all the evidence. I will bring her down sooner or later!"

Susan Lin nodded, though she felt a bit helpless inside.

What kind of trouble could a mere Qi Refining stage disciple like Brandon cause? At most, she might sell some defective talisman-making materials, and Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix turned a blind eye to such things for all the children, let alone Brandon.

But since this was an order from the Lin Family's direct descendant, Susan Lin, as a collateral descendant, could only obey.

...

In the room, Chu Jun listened to Brandon recount the day's events, feeling a lingering fear. "I never expected someone like Dorothy Lin to be so petty, ready to kill over a disagreement!"

"Yes, if it weren't for Tong Ya's timely appearance and Senior Sister Heavenly Phoenix's protection afterward, I wouldn't have survived."

Brandon sighed.

"But that's all in the past. Here's what I earned today. Senior Sister Chu, please use it to heal your injuries."

With that, Brandon generously handed over all the medicinal people he had earned to Chu Jun.

Chu Jun felt a bit embarrassed. "I'm ashamed. I haven't been able to help you at all, Junior Sister Brandon, yet I keep receiving your kindness. If I get through this, I don't know how I'll ever repay you."

Brandon had already provided over two thousand medicinal people, helping her recover from more than half of her injuries, which made her fully trust Brandon's sincerity.

Brandon waved his hand. "Senior Sister, you're overthinking it. We're family; there's no need to be so formal."

"By the way, you should learn this Lin Family's secret technique 'A Single Tree Becomes a Pair' with me."

"With the help of this Daoist Art, your strength will increase significantly, allowing you to handle more situations during Foundation Establishment."@@novelbin@@

Chu Jun was taken aback and quickly waved her hand. "No, that's not appropriate. I can't accept such an important Daoist Art."

But Brandon took out the jade slip containing "A Single Tree Becomes a Pair," grabbed Chu Jun's hand firmly, and forced the jade slip into her hand.

"Take it. There's no need to be polite with me, Senior Sister!"

Holding the jade slip and feeling their hands tightly clasped together, Chu Jun's body trembled slightly, her heart fluttering.

She looked at Brandon, wanting to say something but hesitating. Finally, she slowly leaned forward, and all her words turned into a kiss on Brandon's cheek.

This time, it was Brandon's turn to be stunned. Feeling the warmth on his cheek, his heart also trembled slightly.

But in the next moment, Chu Jun quickly sat back in her original position, her face flushed, shyly saying, "You need to improve your cultivation quickly. Then, we can..."

Before she could finish, she turned away, not daring to look at Brandon again.

After a moment of awkwardness, Brandon finally reacted and said, "Well, Senior Sister Chu Jun, I'll leave now. I'll come back later to get the storage bag and jade slip."

"Okay."

Chu Jun nodded lightly.

As Brandon stood up and was about to leave, Chu Jun suddenly said, "By the way, Brandon, something happened in Patricia Qing's alchemy hall today that I think you might be interested in."

"What is it?"

"A Golden Elixir Elder visited the alchemy hall and seemed to have taken a liking to Ashley Taibai's talent, taking her away."

Brandon nodded, not too surprised by the news.

Indeed, a cultivation genius like Ashley Taibai would always have her own destiny as long as she didn't die prematurely.

However, whether falling into the hands of a Golden Elixir Elder after leaving Patricia Qing was good or bad was anyone's guess.

He hoped Ashley Taibai could survive under that Golden Elixir Elder.

Leaving Chu Jun's residence, Brandon walked towards his own place.

However, as he was about to reach home, he saw two familiar figures waiting quietly at his door from a distance.

Seeing their faces clearly, Brandon's heart sank, almost panicking.

They were Patricia Qing's two children!
