The Esteemed Guest Immortal Manor was the most luxurious inn in Songyu City. It was only used to entertain the most respected guests of the sect. It was definitely a blessing of three lives for Tian Ci, Huo Luan, and Chi Dan to be able to enter the immortal estate.

Because the hospitable immortal estate only entertained the most respected guests of the sect, there was a special spiritual medicine garden set up for its guests to enjoy.

Because the guests they received were the most honored guests of the sect, the sect absolutely believed in the guest's character.

Because the sect absolutely believed that the guests had very good character, the sect did not set up any protective barriers on the spiritual medicines in the spiritual medicine garden.

He didn't place a barrier around the medicine garden because he believed that the honored guest's character wasn't the main reason. The main reason was that he didn't want his esteemed guest to misunderstand the pettiness of the sect.

Within the immortal estate, spiritual medicines were planted. Spirit flowers and spirit herbs emitted a special fragrance, filling the courtyard with their fragrance.

The spirit fruit planted in the courtyard could not only be used to entertain esteemed guests, but could also be used as food materials and as an ornament for various dishes.

The spiritual medicines planted in the Spiritual Medicine Garden were common in the cultivation world, and were absolutely not of some sort. Esteemed guests would often look down on them, and would not randomly pick them, losing their identity.

Sometimes, honorable guests would bring in beloved disciples with low cultivation, or even their own children. Honored guests would also restrain their own disciples (children) well, because they held their own identities.

In the history of the Hollow Jade Sect, it was not as if they had never entertained a lot of demon kings before. During the times when the humans and demons were living in peace, many demon kings came to visit the Hollow Jade Sect.

The Demon King lived in the depths of the primeval forest, so there was naturally a lot of spiritual medicine in the forest. The Demon King lived in the depths of the primeval forest, so there was naturally a lot of spiritual medicine in the forest.

However, this was the first time in history that the hospitable immortal estate had received an esteemed guest like Chi Dan. It was also the first time in history that half of the spiritual objects in the courtyard had been looted.

Firstly, Chi Dan was not the Demon King. The title of Demon King was given to him by the human race because they had spread the rumours.

Secondly, Chi Dan had seen a lot of spiritual medicines in the mountains and plains, but he didn't get many with the protection of the demonic beasts.

Third, after staying by the side of Heaven's Gift and Fu Yun for too long, these rascals had never been under any real restrictions, and they did not care about their identities at all.

Fourth, of course, was the inability to suppress his urge when he saw the entire courtyard full of spiritual medicines.

Receiving guests like him without setting up a protective barrier around the herb garden in the inn was indeed the Hollow Jade Temple's biggest mistake.

This time, the Scarlet Pill was a good example to the Hollow Jade Temple. After this incident, they believed that the sect would place a barrier to protect their spiritual medicines.

"Haha …"

"How did you get in?"

"I had nothing better to do, so I helped repair the medicine garden at the inn. It must have been exhausting for me. However, Fellow Daoist Ding, you don't have to thank me. I'd be happy to help!"

Did he just come in?

He was clearly lying!

Ding Xu, Tian Ci, and Huo Luan had already entered the room a long time ago. It was just that it pretended not to see them. If it wasn't for Ding Xu and Tian Ci, it wouldn't have stopped.

If you have nothing else to do, then go straight to the living room. Who asked you to help fix the medicine garden?

Besides, are you fixing the medicine garden?

Spirit grass had traces of being pulled out, soil had traces of being turned over, spirit flowers had been bitten off, and a large number of branches in the spirit orchard had been broken off. There were indeed signs of being repaired.

However, where did the spiritual medicine in the courtyard go?

Also, what happened to a few small trees that snapped at the waist?

Hard work?

Gathering spirit items by yourself for a Scarlet Core, isn't that a lot of work?

How can I be of service?

From the looks of it, it seemed that the entire medicinal field had been taken in. Ding Xu was on the verge of tears.

"This is it!"

Not only did Little Dan take away all the herbs in the right herb garden, she also destroyed the Spirit Tree in the Spirit Orchid Garden.

He had clearly done something wrong, but Little Dan actually didn't have the slightest intention of repenting. He really wanted to take out the treasured sword his senior brother had given him and strike it with his sword.

With the herb garden destroyed, other than the Scarlet Core, only Huo Luan could still smile. Even though the herb garden was not some immortal grade spiritual object and half of the herb garden was destroyed, he still felt extremely carefree in his heart.

Seeing that Chi Dan had caused trouble and failed to wake up, he felt helpless.

As for Ding Xu, there was no need to even mention his desire to kill Chi Dan.

"… …"

There was a Spirit Formation over the entire Lover Immortal Mansion. Once the Spirit Formation was activated, it would be very hard for anything from the outside to enter. Even if it was dust, it would be impossible to enter the inns.

The immortal estate only received noble guests from the sects, and they didn't come often either. It was a common occurrence for several years, dozens of years, or even hundreds of years, where no distinguished guest visited.

Not only that, the earth planted with spiritual medicines in the medicinal garden was not ordinary, and with the roots that held the soil in place, it was impossible for it to dust.

As a result, the entire inn was spotless all year round, and there was no need for cleaning or cleaning.

There was no need to clean the immortal estate; only one or two people were in charge of managing it. This was indeed the case. There were only two people in charge of managing the immortal estate: an elder and a personal disciple.

People were divided into different grades, and the same applied to the customers.

If the guests were demon kings or an expert of the Divine Tribulation Realm, they would have definitely come out personally to meet them. If they were only cultivators below the Divine Tribulation Realm, Elders rarely came out to meet them.

Because they would sometimes receive Demon Kings and tribulation stage cultivators, the elders' status in the sect was not low. In order to express the importance they place on their esteemed guests, the elders must have at least the cultivation of the tribulation stage.

Of course, as the direct disciple of an elder, the disciple's cultivation would not be weak.

Once an important guest had arrived, the elder would be in charge of receiving and preparing food for the guest. Disciples would be in charge of other tasks such as bringing the guest into the room, tidying up the room after the guest had left, and occasionally the kitchen would be too busy.

However, there was one thing that the elder always took care of by himself, and that was the Spiritual Medicine Garden.

Normally, when there were no guests, other than cultivating, elder would take care of the Spiritual Medicine Garden on time. As for the direct disciples of elder, they lived the most relaxed lives.

The guests of the hospitable immortal estate were all esteemed guests of the sect, so naturally, they didn't dare to slight them. Things that made the guests wait outside the door never happened.

Therefore, every elder in the city would have a key to open the immortal estate, which was the crystal ball that Ding Xu had just taken out.

The disciples of the elders were often cultivating. After the city guarding elders opened the immortal estate, they would immediately inform the disciples of the elders and elders. After knowing the identity of the guests, the two of them would immediately come out to welcome them.

In order to cultivate and to end the circulation of Qi, one needed to go through a process. Although this process did not require a long time, it would at least delay the process a bit.

It was precisely because of this little amount of time that the two people in the inn were unable to appear in time and were unable to prevent the tragedy of the medicine garden being robbed by the Scarlet Pill.

In the past, when Martial Uncle needed time to finish his training, when Ding Xu brought the guests, he would not wait for his Martial Uncle to come out and welcome them. Instead, he would bring the guests directly into the main hall of the inn.

Today was different from the past. It was not that he did not bring Chi Dan, Tian Ci, or Huo Luan into the hall, but he was still worrying about the missing half of the spiritual herbs.

Ah!

"My medicine garden!"

"Who, who did it?"

Upon receiving Ding Xu's message, the elder immediately stopped his cultivation and rushed out to meet his guest.

In the immortal estate, there was no need to release his spiritual sense to investigate in order to cause misunderstanding. He habitually wore a smile on his face and quickly rushed to the guest room.

The training room was at the back of the living room, and when he arrived at the living room, he did not see any guests. The training room was at the back of the living room, and when he arrived at the living room, he did not see any customers.

In the hundred years he had spent in the inn, every blade of grass and fruit tree had been taken care of by him.

He knew when each flower blossomed and when the flower withered; he knew when each grass sprouted and the leaves died; he knew when each fruit tree bore fruit and when it was ripe.

For hundreds of years, the medicine garden had remained safe and sound. He never thought that half of it would be destroyed today. Seeing the half of the medicine garden that he had wholeheartedly managed, his heart bled.

"Haha …"

"Old man, do you remember where we met?"

An angry rebuke came from behind him. He turned around just in time to see an old man extremely angry. Chi Dan did not have the slightest awareness of what he had done wrong and was thick-skinned enough to walk up to greet the elder.

Speaking of which, it was all because of Ding Xu's bad luck. He had misunderstood that Chi Dan wanted to collect the city entrance fee, so he would warmly greet anyone he met on the way to the inn.

Needless to say, as long as the Crimson Dan didn't ask for spirit stones, it was really passionate. It would greet everyone enthusiastically, and its greeting was even a sentence given by the heavens.

Thus, upon seeing the appearance of the elder, it decided to use this phrase once more.

"It's you?"

"I will kill you!"

The three people in the yard were like pigs, and the three people were still standing at the entrance. Only the pig was standing in the middle of the yard, and there was still mud at the corners of the pig's mouth.

Half of the medicine garden had been destroyed, so it wasn't proper for him to greet the elder. The elder was so angry that he almost raged in anger.

"Huh?"

"You two little brats, it seems you don't welcome us here. Let's go!"

If he was still going to kill him, then he must be blaming him for plundering the spiritual medicine. If he did not leave now, when would he be able to do so?

"You want to leave?"

"Leave your life behind!"

Now that the medicine garden had been destroyed, not only did Chi Dan not admit his mistake, he even wanted to turn around and run away.

Needless to say, after cultivating for several hundred years, the old man's temper was still so heavy. He didn't even move, just shouting 'fight and kill'.

"Martial Uncle Zhang, you mustn't!"

So the old man's surname was Zhang. He was the martial uncle that Ding Xu was afraid of.

Since Ding Xu was Su Liang's direct disciple and also named Elder Zhang as his martial uncle, Elder Zhang was undoubtedly his martial brother.

That's right, it was just as Huo Luan thought. Elder Zhang was Su Liang's junior brother and his cultivation had also reached the tribulation stage. Perhaps it was because of his bad temper, but his cultivation had been stuck there.

Elder Zhang truly had a unique personality. As soon as he spoke, he immediately took action. Without any hesitation, he focused all of his strength into his right hand and struck out a palm towards Chi Dan.
