The last thing of Congyun

Before leaving, Gao Yuan also handed over the task of "laundering the identity of the ancient Secret Realm Cultivator" to He Zhenghao.

"Zhou Qingang" also once again offered a good reward to show his sincerity.

Being old colleagues, He Zhenghao naturally agreed readily. While he was at it, He Zhenghao also asked Zhou Qingang if he had any plans to leave Congyun Sea.

Zhou Qingang laughed heartily, saying that there was no such thing.

Upon hearing this, He Zhenghao immediately felt relieved. Even Zhou Qingang, the most trusted confidant of Lord Secret Envoy, had no intention of avoiding disaster, indicating that although the arrival of the heaven and earth spirit carried some risks, they would certainly not be too great.

Even more confident in his choice, he no longer thought much about it. After much persuasion, he finally convinced his daughter to leave, and then began to deal with the matter of "Secret Realm Cultivators joining the Immortal Alliance."

In his eyes, this was actually the same as when he was the Town Guardian of Liuli Island and helped Mortals from Li Realm smuggle in.

They both charged per head, and he was very familiar with handling such matters.

Furthermore, he was much bolder than Gao Yuan and had no fear of being investigated by the Immortal Alliance.

Therefore, the progress of the Medicine King Sect Cultivators' entry into the Immortal Alliance and their identity laundering became even faster.

Batch after batch of Cultivators were awakened after Bloodline Transfer, joined the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance, and received the contribution points that Li Fan had dispersed and transferred to them.

But even so, compared to the hundreds of millions of contribution points Li Fan possessed, it was merely a drop in the bucket.

In order to transfer all the contribution points before the Crimson Flame Burning Sea, Li Fan secretly exchanged and purchased standard Spirit Stones from other Cultivators.

At the same time, he contacted the Five Old Men Association again.

He still contacted the other party through Zhou Qingang. This time, the other party's actions were much faster than before.

Soon, Zhou Qingang met the person in charge from the Five Old Men Association again.

He was familiar, dressed in black, with an unidentifiable appearance. However, the other party was clearly aware of the contents of the previous transaction.

He immediately asked, "Is there a result regarding the previous matter?"

Zhou Qingang smiled slightly, "It seems this matter is truly important to you. So much time has passed, and you still haven't forgotten about it."

The previous matter, of course, was the Five Old Men Association entrusting "Zhou Qingang" to help investigate the identity of the ancient Cultivator excavated from the Zixiao Sect Ruins.

Li Fan had already thoroughly investigated this matter from Jiao Xiuyuan's mouth, and it happened to serve as a bargaining chip for this transaction.

The Five Old Men Cultivator also said frankly, "Although both sides are currently in a ceasefire, everyone knows that peace is destined to be short-lived. No one can predict when the war will break out again. Moreover, it is only overall peace. In some places, the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance is still in a standoff with us."

"Currently, for the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance's Profound Heaven Locks the Abyss, we have only found a way to counterbalance it. To completely dismantle its effect, we still need more intelligence."

Zhou Qingang's eyes flickered slightly, but he showed no abnormality, merely nodding.

"I have already found out the identity of that excavated ancient Cultivator. What price are your Five Old Men Association willing to pay this time?" He said slowly, a slight smile on his lips.

"Is that true?" It seemed to give the other party a great surprise, as the Five Old Men Cultivator actually stood up directly, staring intently at Zhou Qingang.

Zhou Qingang nodded proudly.

"Good, good!" The other party repeated several times, "Your Overturning Sky Society's methods are indeed extraordinary!"

"Please wait a moment, I will report to my superiors immediately!"

The Black-Clothed Cultivator turned around and fell silent.

Zhou Qingang carefully observed, but he still couldn't figure out how the other party contacted the Five Old Men Association officially. One could only say that after all, it was the Five Old Men Association's spy organization, and it couldn't be completely underestimated.

Soon after, the Five Old Men Cultivator turned back.

This time, with full vigor, he began to discuss terms with Zhou Qingang.

"The previous batch of real temptation fruit and Humanity Star Dust were very effective; we need more of them…"

After some bargaining, a deal was finally reached at a price satisfactory to both parties.

"It's urgent, the sooner the transaction is completed, the better." Zhou Qingang hinted.

The Five Old Men Cultivator stared at Zhou Qingang for a moment, then nodded to indicate understanding.

"Oh, and one more thing."

Just before the contract was fully signed, Zhou Qingang suddenly asked again, "I have some contribution points, and their origin is rather troublesome. I need them to be converted into standard Spirit Stones with a clean and untraceable source. Can you help me with this as well?"

The Five Old Men Cultivator was startled at first, thinking Zhou Qingang had gone back on his word. When he clearly heard the other party's condition, he immediately smiled and said indifferently, "A small matter, no problem."

"How much do you need?" he then asked.

"Not much, just two or three hundred million," Zhou Qingang said casually.

The Five Old Men Cultivator was instantly petrified.

"How… much?" For a moment, he suspected he had misheard.

Zhou Qingang then repeated it again.

"This… Fellow Daoist, please wait, I still need to ask for instructions." He wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, his voice even trembling slightly.

Zhou Qingang waved his hand, telling him to hurry up and do it.

It took longer than the previous consultation, and the Black-Clothed Cultivator was almost exhausted.

"Uh, the superiors have agreed to your request. However…"

He was a bit uneasy: "The list of materials just mentioned might need to be adjusted."

"Hmm?" Zhou Qingang showed a displeased expression and turned to leave.

"Wait! Wait!" The Black-Clothed Cultivator quickly stepped forward to stop him.

"Everything can be discussed! Fellow Daoist, the quantity of standard Spirit Stones you need is truly too much. And wanting it not to be detected by the Ten Thousand Immortals Alliance is even more difficult!" he explained.

"If it wasn't difficult, why would I come to you? I would have handled it myself," Zhou Qingang scoffed.

The Five Old Men Cultivator nodded repeatedly, not daring to refute.

The two parties negotiated again and finally reached an agreement.

As a golden light flew into Zhou Qingang's body, the Black-Clothed Cultivator also slowly dissolved into the golden light and disappeared.

However, there was no fear or panic on his face either.

He merely instructed Zhou Qingang about the agreed location and details for the next transaction.

After the Black-Clothed Cultivator completely disappeared, Zhou Qingang carefully observed the spot for a moment, then shook his head slightly.

"Bound by human contract, fearless of life and death. It's truly sinister."

He immediately destroyed all traces here and quietly returned.

Ten days later, Zhou Qingang met another Black-Clothed Cultivator with a very similar aura, but clearly not the same person.

As before, he handed over a kongming stone mother, containing all the materials on the list.

After a brief inspection, Li Fan also revealed the identity of the excavated ancient Cultivator.

"Xuantian Sect Dharma King?"

The other party was clearly very shocked upon learning this.

However, he seemed to have anticipated this as well, and quickly returned to normal.
