Nine Yang Alchemy Emperor

Vice Mountain Master Fang Youming also saw the immense potential in Chu Feng, which is why he took the initiative to befriend him and push him to a higher position.

With his wisdom, he could see at a glance that Ding Ku's leader was utterly defeated by Chu Feng in their confrontation. Otherwise, even if Ding Ku's leader was foolish, after destroying the medicinal herbs planted by Chu Feng, he would have immediately fled.

It's impossible that he foolishly stayed in the medicine field, allowing Chu Feng to lead people to catch the thief.

The more ingenious part is yet to come.

Even Manager Tang Ying was schemed against by Chu Feng.

Although Tang Ying's status was far higher than Chu Feng's, under Chu Feng's schemes, not only could he not protect Ding Ku, but he also nearly got himself trapped.

This person is truly formidable; his strategies, means, and temperament are all top-notch choices.

And it is said that his talent in Sword Dao is also exceptionally outstanding.

Now, building a good relationship with Chu Feng as an emotional investment might yield great returns in the future.

"I also think that Chu Feng should be richly rewarded! Our Ten Thousand Sword Sect really needs such talents!"

"Suffering oppression from superiors and remaining optimistic and calm, this is commendable. If such unfair treatment is not rewarded, it will only make people question the management of Medicine Mountain No. 106, leading to criticism."

Another Vice Mountain Master, named Qiu Gong.

This person must join forces with Fang Youming to counterbalance the Mountain Master. Now, whether he likes it or not, he must align with Fang Youming to speak up for Chu Feng.

Using public opinion to exert pressure is a very ruthless move.

Because whether it's Manager Tang Ying or Mao Wu Mountain Master, both have been instructed by Jia Zhenjing to deal with Chu Feng. However, such matters can only be carried out behind the scenes and must never be brought to the forefront.

They must not give others leverage or expose it to the public.

Otherwise, whether it's Manager Tang Ying or Mountain Master Mao Wu, both would have to step down.

The rules of the sect allow no one to openly defy them.

With both vice mountain masters pressuring him in full view of the public, even if reluctantly, Mao Wu Mountain Master had to honestly give Chu Feng a passable reward.

"Chu Feng is appointed as the small leader of this mountain area, recognizing your diligent work since joining Medicine Mountain. Even suffering oppression, you harbored no resentment. I promote you to motivate you to strive harder and make greater contributions to our mountain No. 106."

After pondering for a few seconds, Mao Wu Mountain Master, gritting his teeth, gave Chu Feng a passable reward.

For other medicine farmers, becoming a small leader would take years of effort.

Chu Feng took merely over two months to be promoted to small leader, taking a crucial step. This time, he definitely made a gain.

Originally, he thought about earning his promotion honestly through achievements.

Being promoted within two years would have been quite impressive.

He didn't expect that Ding Ku's leader would make such a blunder, only to be schemed against by Chu Feng. Coupled with the support from the two vice mountain masters, it helped Chu Feng succeed all at once.

It saved him more than a year's time.

"Thank you, Mountain Master Mao Wu! Thank you to the two vice mountain masters for nurturing me!" Chu Feng spoke this very skillfully.

For Mountain Master Mao Wu, his thanks were very general, somewhat like courtesies.

However, he expressed gratitude to the two vice mountain masters for their nurturing.

Fang Youming's eyes brightened and a joyful smile appeared on his face. He thought to himself, speaking with a clever person really saves effort. This youngster is indeed clever and understands everything clearly.

He immediately smiled and nodded slightly to Chu Feng, "Young man, keep up the good work, I have high hopes for you!"

"If you encounter any difficulties or feel aggrieved, you can always come to me to appeal. The sky of Medicine Mountain No. 106 is not completely covered by dark clouds yet."

Vice Mountain Master Fang Youming was implicitly criticizing Mountain Master Mao Wu for monopolizing power.

Listening, the face of Mao Wu Mountain Master became even more somber and serious.

Vice Mountain Master Qiu Gong did not make a sound. He clearly did not think highly of Chu Feng. This man's thoughts were deeply hidden, and he was rather silent. No one knew what he was truly thinking.

However, from his previous words, this man's wisdom was evidently not low. His speech was very sharp, and he could strike right at the heart of the matter.

As the three major figures left one after another, the Mountain Patrol Envoy didn't dare to rest. Given the situation, his responsibility was significant.

He must patrol the entire Medicine Mountain twice, especially those important medicinal herbs, as they must not be compromised.

Ding Ku, screaming miserably, was dragged away. What awaited him was a lifetime of hard labor.

Manager Tang Ying wiped the cold sweat from his forehead; he was nearly dragged into the ordeal just now, and was quite terrified. Glancing at Chu Feng with a freezing gaze, he did not utter a word and directly left.

The others also dispersed one after another.

Eventually, only Chu Feng and his nine Medicine Farmers remained here.

Soon there would be another Medicine Farmer added.

The Wan Jian Sect Main Lineage never lacked people.

As for those disciples involved in the incidents, they would gradually fade from people's sight. They would pay for the mistakes they made themselves, some even regretting them for life.

"Congratulations to Leader Chu Feng!"

"From now on, we are the soldiers under Leader Chu Feng. Whatever you command, we will follow."

Zhang Dabing and the others all congratulated Chu Feng respectfully. At the same time, they each tried their best to show their loyalty.

An emperor for a day, followers for a day.

A local officer can't compare to the current supervisor.

Although Manager Tang Ying's position is far higher than Chu Feng, the one who manages them every day is not Manager Tang Ying, but Chu Feng, the small leader.

Although his position isn't high, his power is significant.

He has great authority over each Medicine Farmer.

"Everyone return to your respective Medicine Fields and continue with your duties. If anything comes up, I will notify you."

After dispersing the crowd, Chu Feng went straight to the stone house of Ding Ku's leader.

Now that Ding Ku has fallen, he has become the new small leader, and everything that belonged to Ding Ku's leader now belongs to Chu Feng.

Soon, Chu Feng arrived inside the stone house.

Hey, I didn't expect this stone house to be quite large. It must be over seventy square meters, with two rooms, a living room, and a bedroom. Compared to the thatched cottages where Medicine Farmers live, it is much stronger.

Living in the stone house, one no longer has to worry about wind and rain, and it can also withstand snakes, ants, insects, and beasts.

There is also some assurance of privacy.

Two rooms, one for sleeping, and the other can be used as a secret room for cultivation.

Ding Ku had obviously arranged it this way; the room on the right had been specially reinforced. The door was also replaced with a heavy solid iron door. When someone is cultivating inside, as long as they lock the door from the inside, they basically don't need to worry about outsiders disturbing them.

This is very beneficial for cultivation.

After inspecting the two rooms, Chu Feng walked towards the living room at the back. Logically, this should be the kitchen and toilet.

"Huh, there's actually a Pill Furnace here, really a pleasant surprise!"

I didn't expect there to be no cooking utensils in the kitchen behind, but there was a Pill Furnace.
