"Master, why did that demon cultivator call you over?"

The white-haired old man was one of the foundation-building cultivators. He had been called to the front yard by Pei Yun before. The young man couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw that his master had returned safely, and asked curiously.

The white-haired old man had a strange look on his face. He repeated what Pei Yun had just said to them, and then said, "...This demon cultivator is really different..."

If there is a conspiracy, it is nothing more than treating them as food, slaves, or experimental subjects for cultivation. But no matter which one, there is no need to treat them so well! Even slaves in the cultivation world don’t get such good treatment!

"Master, we must seize the opportunity!"

The young man was very happy. He glanced at the spiritual rice, cloth and other supplies surrounded by the crowd, and whispered to the old man, "If we can be chosen by this adult, we may be able to unlock the seal in our bodies and restore our cultivation. Moreover, if we have control over the spiritual rice, then these thousands of people can be used by us..."

Not only the young man thought so, the other ten foundation-building cultivators and their relatives and friends also thought so.

These eleven people each put forward suggestions that were beneficial to themselves based on their own little thoughts. After arguing for most of the day, they reluctantly reached a tentative plan - each of them selected a group of people and distributed supplies according to the proportion of the number of people.

"Senior sister, this is too unfair. There are ten men bullying you, a woman. They only give you five bags of spiritual rice. This way, we have fewer people to choose from!" The girl complained incessantly in front of her senior sister.

The woman next to her seemed very calm. There was a hideous scar on her face, which she had cut herself after being plundered by the demon cultivators and brought to the demon world. After listening to her junior sister's words, she said calmly: "The number of people selected is not important. What is important is how to manage these people well..."

The scarred woman recalled Pei Yun's previous preferential treatment of those women and children, and she began to think about it.

In the backyard, the foundation-building monks had already started to select. The first ones to be selected were some strong and capable men, as well as some young women who could sew and cook. Young children and sick elderly people were left behind, including the brother and sister who were less than ten years old...

"Sister!" The little boy held the girl's hand and watched helplessly as the people around them were picked away one by one, leaving them alone.

The girl's heart sank a little bit. She unconsciously clenched the boy's hand, tears welling up in her eyes. At this moment, the scarred woman came over. She looked at the old people and children present with a gentle look on her face, and said calmly:

"Everyone is welcome here. If anyone wants to work for me, they can come to me. I promise everyone that as long as they can complete the work I assign, they will have two meals of rice porridge every day..."

As soon as these words were spoken, the eyes of the people present lit up, because these people were basically the old, weak, sick and disabled who were left over. They originally thought they would be abandoned, but they didn't expect that there would actually be someone who would accept them!

All of a sudden, all these people stood up and walked towards the scarred woman. The brother and sister also mixed in the crowd and joined the scarred woman's team.

"Senior Sister! What can these people, old and young, do?" the junior sister beside her said in a voice transmission.

"Your Excellency's purpose is not to ask them to do anything, but to settle them down." The scarred woman led the group to occupy several remote rooms and began to arrange them in an orderly manner...

Three days later, Pei Yun and Luo Rufeng went to the backyard to check on their work over the past few days. Seeing that everyone was wearing clothes and the big bunk beds in the room were well arranged, at least everyone had a temporary place to stay. Pei Yun nodded with satisfaction.

Seeing Pei Yun smile, the foundation-building cultivators following behind him couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Hey! Who is in charge of this area?" Pei Yun asked curiously when he saw the newly built toilet in front.

"Sir, this is the territory I am responsible for." The scarred woman stood up and bowed respectfully to Pei Yun.

"Did you also arrange for people to build this toilet?"

"Yes, sir. I have hundreds of people under me. There are not many toilets in the backyard. It is very inconvenient for everyone. I will gather everyone to build a few more toilets..."

"Not bad." Pei Yun nodded in appreciation, which made the foundation-building cultivators behind her couldn't help but look at the scarred woman with different expressions.

Pei Yun walked into the room and found that the rooms that the scarred woman was in charge of had special curtains to separate the space. The empty spaces were filled with tables, chairs, cabinets, etc., which looked very lively. She couldn't help but feel that the woman was very thoughtful and praised her generously, "She's very thoughtful!"

"I am ashamed. I asked Lord Black Dragon for these things. In the final analysis, they are all blessings bestowed upon us by Lord Black Dragon..."

The scarred woman smiled humbly, then suddenly knelt down, kowtowed to Pei Yun, and begged, "Sir, I have many old, weak, women and children under my command. Some of them are sick, and some are injured. I wonder if you can ask a doctor to treat them. They are all mortals. If they are delayed, I am afraid they will not live long..."

After hearing this, the foundation-building cultivators behind Pei Yun were all shocked and took a breath of cold air. They originally thought that this woman was very scheming, but now they were amazed at her boldness.

Being slaves, they asked their masters to hire doctors to treat them. This is simply going against the will of heaven!

Thinking that everyone was looking at Pei Yun and the other person's expressions, Pei Yun pondered for a moment, looked at Luo Rufeng, and the two nodded slightly at each other.

"Okay, but there's no need to call a doctor for them. I am..." Pei Yun almost revealed that he was an alchemist. Alchemists were very common in the world of cultivation, but relatively rare in the world of demons.

"Sir!" The scarred woman asked tentatively with an uneasy mentality, but she didn't expect Pei Yun to really agree.

"How about this, these two thousand people will come to the front yard in batches starting tomorrow, starting with the people under you. I will help check their physical conditions..." Pei Yun said.

"Thank you, sir!"

"Thank you, sir!"

For a moment, the group of people surrounding Pei Yun knelt down and kowtowed to Pei Yun and the other man to express their gratitude.

"What's your name?" Pei Yun asked the scarred woman.

"My little one's name is Lanxiang."

"Miss Lanxiang, since it is you who made the request, you will be responsible for arranging it. Just bring your people to the front yard tomorrow morning."

"Yes, my lord."

Looking at Pei Yun's departing back, Lanxiang felt an indescribable emotion in her heart, as if a ray of light shone deep into her heart.

After Pei Yun and the other man inspected their results over the past three days, they gave them food for the next few days and then returned to the front yard.

As soon as he entered the hall, he saw Feng Yi rushing in from outside, shouting, "Pei Yun, Pei Yun, you have to help me get my place back..."

"What's wrong?" Pei Yun sat down unhappily and took a sip of tea. "Are you in trouble again?"

“It’s not that I’m in trouble, I just lost tens of millions of high-quality demon crystals…” The four demons of Blue Star followed him in.

"That's what you deserve."

"Pei Yun, that demon cultivator must have cheated. I suspect he used his innate magical powers to win so easily..."

"You deserve it. Gambling is something you shouldn't touch."

"But aren't you curious? Why can the demon cultivator's magical power predict things in advance?"

"Sorry for not being curious."

"Senior Pei, the Taotie Tower is really worth a visit. There is a place inside for gathering information. Maybe the whereabouts of the Illusion Grass can be found there..."

Hearing this, Pei Yun became interested and asked, "Is there a place in this Taotie Tower that specializes in getting information?"

"Indeed, but it seems that not everyone can enter there. We were all blocked outside..."

"Go ahead, go ahead, and meet that demon cultivator while you're at it. He must help me win the demon crystal back!"

"That's impossible!" Pei Yun said, "You should learn a lesson. You don't practice all day, but just play..."

Then he turned to Luo Rufeng and said, "Your Excellency, after we finish treating the people in the backyard in a few days, we will go to Taotie Tower to take a look..." Luo Rufeng smiled faintly and nodded.
