Chapter 49: Are You Spies?

"To learn from Comrade Lin Mo means to learn from his bad ideology, bad work style, and bad moral character; to learn from his consistent practice of doing bad things without ever doing good deeds; and to learn from his spirit of proceeding from the interests of the Sect in everything and serving the Sect wholeheartedly."

Senior Sister Leng Hanyue and the others acted as if they were meeting Lin Mo for the first time. Although they had previously felt that Lin Mo was a bit wicked, they had never realized that he was actually so adept at doing bad things.

Having joined the Soul-Devouring Beast Sect for merely two days, he had already become such an outstanding villain and even gained the appreciation of the Branch Master.

Several Elders of the Soul-Devouring Beast Sect stood straight and spoke in unison: "Serve the Sect, learn from Lin Mo."

Branch Master Zhang Yuanqing nodded with satisfaction: "That is more like it. Alright, Comrade Lin Mo, the few of you go outside and sell Medicinal Pills first."

As soon as Lin Mo and the others left the Soul-Devouring Beast Sect, Zhang Yuanqing said: "Wang Dabiao, follow them. If they try to run away with the Spirit Stones, execute them on the spot."

No matter how outstanding Lin Mo was, he was still just a Disciple who had just joined the Soul-Devouring Beast Sect; it was impossible for Branch Master Zhang Yuanqing to trust him.

Wang Dabiao nodded: "Branch Master, you can rest assured."

He had long wanted to deal with Lin Mo and the others. Ever since they joined the Soul-Devouring Beast Sect, they had continuously received rewards from the Sect Master.

Wang Dabiao even felt that he had studied "One Hundred Ways to Flatter Superiors" all for nothing.

Previously, he felt that he was a born villain, but only after meeting Lin Mo did he realize what a darling in the workplace of the Soul-Devouring Beast Sect was supposed to look like.

Senior Sister Leng Hanyue took a deep breath: "We are finally out. The Cultivators of the Soul-Devouring Beast Sect are quite easy to talk to, letting us out so easily."

Senior Sister Huang Doudou hit the nail on the head and said: "That is because they want us to help sell Medicinal Pills."

Lin Mo stretched lazily: "Why care about so much? As long as we can come out to breathe some fresh air and not have to smell the weird stench inside the Soul-Devouring Beast Sect, that is enough."

Senior Sister Leng Hanyue asked curiously: "What weird stench are you talking about?"

Lin Mo teased with a half-smile: "It is the same scent of poverty and sourness as the one on you."

Senior Sister Leng Hanyue raised her small fist and chased after Lin Mo to beat him, but Lin Mo had anticipated it and dodged her a step ahead.

Shangguan Rouer's small figure stood in front of Lin Mo, her height barely reaching Lin Mo's chest.

She said with a serious face: "Stop messing around. Let us think about where we should go to sell these Medicinal Pills."

Although Shangguan Rouer looked completely devoid of deterrent power, what she said was serious business after all, so Senior Sister Leng Hanyue stopped fooling around.

She racked her brains and said: "This is indeed a problem. Over twenty Medicinal Pills, although not many, are not something Loose Cultivators and small shops can digest. If we go to the market to set up a stall, our target will be too big, and Nine-Marked Medicinal Pills will definitely cause a sensation."

Senior Sister Huang Doudou suggested: "If you ask me, why don't each of us carry a few Medicinal Pills and ship them out from the market in batches?"

Lin Mo waved his hand and said: "Too slow, I have a good idea."

The three girls said in unison: "Tell us?"

Ever since joining the Soul-Devouring Beast Sect, they had truly witnessed Lin Mo's crooked ideas, and right now they also expected him to come up with a good plan.

Lin Mo snapped his fingers, attracting the gaze of several people, and said: "It is very simple. Langya Commandery has a branch pavilion of the Jade Maiden Immortal Sect's Danding Peak. We can just sell them directly there."

Aside from collecting huge protection fees from the Falling Money Chamber of Commerce every year, the Five Immortal Sects naturally also had businesses of their own.

Spirit Stone veins, spirit fields, Medicinal Pills, Magic Treasures, and so on.

Especially categories like Medicinal Pills and Magic Treasures. Those adorable muscular lolis of the Jade Maiden Immortal Sect had craftsmanship better than one another; things that Disciples of many Sects disdained became ultimate treasures at the bottom of the box once they fell into the hands of Loose Cultivators.

Senior Sister Leng Hanyue said in shock: "How can this be? What if we get caught by the Righteous Path?"

Lin Mo felt a bit helpless toward this Senior Sister who easily got too into character every time. He gave Senior Sister Leng Hanyue a light rap on the head: "Did you forget your own identity? What can the Jade Maiden Immortal Sect possibly do to its own Disciple?"

Senior Sister Huang Doudou frowned: "I estimate that there are still Demonic Path Cultivators following us. If they see us going to the Immortal Sect's branch store, I am afraid there will be a danger of exposure?"

Lin Mo hooked his finger: "You guys come over."

Then he whispered, "As long as we do this, that, and this again, we will not be exposed."

Senior Sister Huang Doudou gave a thumbs up: "Junior Brother, you really have a way."

The tiny figure Shangguan Rouer also looked at Lin Mo with a face full of admiration, wondering how on earth someone with such a clever brain and such a black heart managed to grow up.

Since it was decided, the few of them headed straight for the Jade Maiden Immortal Sect's branch store.

At this time, Wang Dabiao was hiding far behind, and doubts began to murmur in his heart.

Why were those four not properly selling Medicinal Pills and discussing things here instead?

Until he saw Lin Mo and the others walk into the Jade Maiden Immortal Sect's branch store, a fierce expression appeared on Wang Dabiao's face: "I just knew that you few are not good things, especially that Cultivator named Lin Mo! How could a proper villain be as wicked as him?!"

It seemed that this deal went quite well, and the store clerk even escorted Lin Mo and the others out with smiles and chatter.

After walking a distance, Wang Dabiao said with a gloomy face: "What did you few go do inside the Immortal Sect's store?"

Lin Mo gave Senior Sister Huang Doudou an appreciative glance. As expected of Senior Sister, she was as miraculous as a prophet and had long guessed that the Soul-Devouring Beast Sect would send people to follow them.

He said without blushing and with a calm heartbeat: "Following the Branch Master's instructions, we came out to sell Medicinal Pills."

Wang Dabiao wore a skeptical expression: "Does selling Medicinal Pills require going to stores run by Righteous Path Sects? And chatting and laughing with the clerk?"

Lin Mo retorted: "Elder, do we Demonic Path Cultivators have any stores?"

Wang Dabiao choked. Right, it seemed that Demonic Path Cultivators did not run stores.

However, he quickly reacted: "That is not the point! Why were you chatting and laughing with that clerk? Could it be that you were passing on some intelligence? Or are you yourselves spies?"

Lin Mo stared at him with an exaggerated expression and spread his hands helplessly:

"Elder, we came out to sell Medicinal Pills, so naturally, we choose however it sells the fastest and safest."

"That store of the Jade Maiden Immortal Sect is a century-old shop with formidable strength, and the Medicinal Pills were all digested by them in one go."

"What we sold were Nine-Marked Medicinal Pills with such excellent quality, so the other party must have been happy. What is wrong with chatting with us a few more words?"

"Moreover, Elder, do you not know the principle that it is darkest under the lamp? No one would ever imagine that we Disciples of the Soul-Devouring Beast Sect would dare to openly go to one of the Five Immortal Sects to sell Medicinal Pills."

"Furthermore, I only grew closer to that clerk so that future sales of Medicinal Pills would go smoother, and the other party also agreed that if there are Medicinal Pills in the future, we can sell them directly to them."

"I risked being captured by Righteous Path Sects for the Sect and worked desperately to sell Medicinal Pills, yet what I got in return was a misunderstanding."

With that, Lin Mo clutched his chest in profound grief.
