Chapter 3264 It's Not Your Choice

When the fat guy beside me heard me say this, his eyes widened immediately: "Xiao Jie, I can't take your corpse pill. You still need to improve your cultivation and use it to overcome the tribulation. It will be useless for me to eat it."

"Who said it's useless? It's been several years since you came down from Longhu Mountain, and your cultivation has not improved much. You can't give all the good things to me alone. You should also improve your cultivation. Although I have to overcome the tribulation, a corpse pill won't help me much and it can't help me get through the tribulation." I patted Xiaopang's shoulder.

"Xiao Jie, although this top-grade flying zombie corpse pill cannot help you survive the heavenly tribulation, it can reduce some of the damage caused by the heavenly tribulation to you. Have you thought about it?" Master Ba became unusually serious.

"I've thought about it. From the moment I got the crystal of this top-grade zombie, I wanted to give it to Xiaopang. He hasn't even reached the ghost fairyland yet, so he must make a breakthrough." I said with a smile.

"Master Ba, you should give it to Xiaojie." Xiaopang really didn't want it. Although this kid was greedy for money, he always protected me.

"Since Xiaojie has made the decision, you can take it. You have been down the mountain for several years, and you really haven't made much progress." Mr. Ba said immediately.

Afterwards, we began to think of ways to refine the corpse pill of this top-grade flying zombie.

I have a lot of experience in refining corpse pills. I bought some herbs, mixed them with the crystals of the top-grade zombies, and put them in a cauldron to refine them. It will take many days to make a pill.

During the days of refining the corpse pill, Yang Tianxiao had been living in the courtyard, and Yang Mengfan would come over from time to time.

Yang Tianxiao also divided the money he took from Goryeo into two parts, giving me 15 million and keeping 5 million for himself. He also said that I contributed the most to this business and should get more.

I returned another five million to Yang Tianxiao. He was the one who found the business this time, and it would be inappropriate for me to take the lion's share.

It was agreed to be 50-50, and it must be 50-50.

After taking the 10 million, I gave Xiaopang 2 million, but he refused to take it, saying that I was about to give him the corpse pill and he definitely couldn't take the money as he had a lot of money and he wouldn't be able to spend it all in his lifetime.

That's true. He has been with me for so long, and whenever he goes out to do big work and robs others, the money he gets is divided equally among us. Now Xiaopang has at least several small targets. Among so many people, only Yuankong and I are paupers, and the rest have become local rich men.

Xiaopang is different from others. For example, the sloppy Taoist and Chilang, after getting the money, would think of buying rare treasures from the Wanluo Sect to improve their cultivation. But Xiaopang just saves it and doesn't spend it at all. At most, he would buy some invisibility talismans or something like that.

Before we could refine the corpse pill, Yang Tianxiao left.

After the corpse pill was refined, I gave it to Xiaopang. Xiaopang was quite embarrassed, and it was only after Mr. Ba and I persuaded him that he swallowed the pill.

Unexpectedly, after taking the corpse pill, there were some side effects. Not long after, Xiaopang's face turned red, as if boiled, and he was sweating profusely. He was extremely thirsty and drank a large bucket of mineral water in one breath. His body seemed to be on fire, with steam constantly coming out.

Mr. Ba said there was no need to worry, because the energy of the corpse pill refined from this top-grade flying zombie was too great, and Xiaopang's cultivation was a little low, so such a powerful energy poured into his body and he couldn't accept it all at once. If it were me, this wouldn't be the case, and it would be fine after a while.

This situation lasted for two or three days before Xiaopang gradually returned to normal. The effect of the corpse pill refined from the top-grade flying zombie also became apparent, and it was obvious that Xiaopang's cultivation had improved a lot.

It will take at least a week for Xiaopang to fully absorb the energy of the corpse pill.

After absorbing this energy, Xiaopang will almost be able to break through the Ghost Fairyland.

However, after reaching the Ghost Fairyland, it becomes very difficult to advance further.

A week later, after Xiaopang absorbed all the energy of the corpse pill, I fought with him for a few more moves.

The pair of eight-sided purple-gold hammers were swung even more vigorously. The five-hundred-pound hammers were like toys, but their strength and speed were significantly improved. Especially after he released his ultimate move, he fought back and forth with me.

Improving Xiaopang's cultivation means improving the strength of our entire Sixth Regiment. Xiaopang, the vanguard, must become stronger.

Not long after Xiaopang digested the corpse pill, Tang Shangning suddenly found himself inside the courtyard.

As soon as Tang Shangning saw me, his face didn't look good. I knew something must be wrong, so I went up to him and greeted him enthusiastically: "Uncle Tang, it's been a long time since we last met. I miss you so much. How are you?"

"Very well, you little brat are back after causing trouble?" Tang Shangning rolled his eyes at me.

"Uncle Tang, what are you talking about? I have been obedient and well-behaved since I was young and never caused any trouble." I chuckled.

"You're getting more and more shameless. Give me the things." Tang Shangning stretched out his hand towards me.

I pretended to be stupid: "What is that, Uncle Tang?"

"You're trying to show off your credentials as the director of the special investigation team. If I don't give it to you, you'll definitely use it to cheat people everywhere. If something goes wrong, I won't be able to take the consequences." Tang Shangning said with disgust.

"Uncle Tang, this certificate is fake anyway, so just let me keep it." I looked reluctant.

"Bring it here and keep it with you. It will cause me a big trouble sooner or later. I'm worried. A few days ago, the White Tiger Bureau of Goryeo called us and asked us to confirm whether the director of the Yanbei Special Task Force had gone to Goryeo. They called Minister Xiao directly and scolded me." Tang Shangning glared at me.

I was helpless and had to reluctantly give the certificate to Tang Shangning.

Tang Shangning put away his ID, his expression changed immediately, and he said with a smile: "Xiao Jie, I came here this time to talk to your Grandpa Zhang about something. Come with me and listen."

When I heard him say this, I quickly refused: "This is your business, what does it have to do with me, you guys should go and talk about it."

I am already very experienced. I am just an observer. Something will definitely happen to me next. I have just returned from Korea and I am still very busy. I don't want to be dragged by the special task force to do hard labor again.

But Tang Shangning reached out and grabbed my arm: "It's not up to you whether to listen or not."

Having said that, Tang Shangning pulled me directly to Grandpa Zhang's house.

Grandpa Zhang and Uncle Ba were waiting in the living room. As soon as Grandpa Zhang saw Tang Shangning bringing me over, his face was full of smiles.

"Xiao Jie, come over and sit down. Grandpa Zhang wants to talk to you about something." Old Zhang definitely had no good intentions.
