Chapter 75: Doing Hard Labor

"I don't dare to take orders. You stole the magic lotus roots and broke the rules of my magic island. Do you want to seal your own cultivation, or do you want me to do it?"

As soon as Zhang Qian said this, Jiang Muxian frowned slightly, and an irresistible elegance and grace emanated from her. In front of this elegance and grace, people felt ashamed of themselves, and even Zhang Qian was a little dazed.

"Wait a minute, Island Master Zhang. How much are these magic-refining lotus roots worth? My sister and I will pay the price. Isn't it a bit too much to say that you are self-proclaimed as a cultivator?"

Without waiting for Zhang Qian to answer, the hundred or so Sandao disciples behind him started shouting.

"That's right, Fairy Jiang is right. We only picked a few herbs. Why did you make such a fuss? Those herbs are not worth many spirit stones. We will compensate you according to the price. Let us go!"

"Yes, Fairy Jiang is the daughter of Emperor Taikang, so what she said makes sense."

"Haha, this Zhang Qian has hit a wall. They are princesses of the Taikang Dynasty, and even the elders of the sect are very polite to them. I want to see what Zhang Qian will do and whether he dares to arrest them."

Hearing the noise behind him, Zhang Qian narrowed his eyes and asked, "Are you princesses of the Taikang Dynasty?"

Jiang Muxian's brows relaxed, and he said openly, "Yes, Island Master Zhang, can you let us go? You actually arrested so many people, aren't you making a fuss out of nothing?"

"Shut up, everyone!"

Zhang Qian suddenly turned around and scolded, then looked at Jiang Muxian and said with a smile: "Since I have captured them, I naturally cannot let you leave. My Demon Refining Island has declined for so many years, and everyone wants to come to the island to get some benefits. Now the island's spiritual medicine resources are almost taken away. This time my sister specially opened the Demon Refining Array to re-establish the rules. You better follow me obediently, and don't let me do anything, otherwise it will be embarrassing!"

After hearing what Zhang Qian said, Jiang Muyao behind Jiang Muxian turned her timid eyes and pouted her lips and said, "We don't care about you, sister. Let's go and see if he dares to do it. Even if he does, I'm not afraid of him!"

Just looking at their cultivation levels, one of the two women is at the True Essence realm, and the other is at the late stage of Mana realm, which are indeed much higher than Zhang Qian. However, Jiang Muxian knows that Zhang Qian is not easy to deal with. As a true disciple, she is well-informed. She had heard before that Zhang Qian had a fight with Ye Lingxiao, leaving Ye Lingxiao seriously injured. But now Zhang Qian is standing here unscathed, and it is obvious that Zhang Qian won the fight.

Ye Lingxiao is also well-known among the true disciples. He is notorious and very difficult to deal with. Jiang Muxian thinks that unless she uses all her strength, she is no match for Ye Lingxiao. Facing Zhang Qian, who has defeated Ye Lingxiao, she does not dare to underestimate him at all.

After thinking for a long time, seeing the fighting spirit in Zhang Qian's eyes, Jiang Muxian could only give in: "Okay, I will seal my cultivation, but don't go too far!"

"elder sister……"

Jiang Muyao's timid eyes showed reluctance, and she wanted to say something, but was stopped by Jiang Muxian's eyes, and then they both sealed their cultivation.

"Very good, follow me!"

After Jiang Muxian and the very reluctant Jiang Muyao sealed their cultivation, Zhang Qian asked Yinlian and Honglian to keep an eye on them and continued to sweep across the Demon Refining Island like casting a net.

It took Zhang Qian and Yu Xuanji a whole day to catch all the disciples who had sneaked in from the Demon Refining Island.

After the two of them reunited, they counted carefully and were shocked to find that they had captured more than a thousand disciples this time!

"These people come and go, digging here and there on the Demon Refining Island. No matter how many resources there are, they will all be drained out!"

Shaking his head, Zhang Qian glanced around, and with a thought, his powerful mind swept out with great force, shocking everyone. The strange thing was that Zhang Qian was surprised to find that Jiang Muxian and Jiang Muyao were not affected by his mind at all!

"How is this going?"

Feeling surprised, Zhang Qian used most of his mental power to cover the two women. He saw Jiang Muxian frown slightly, and a strange mark suddenly flashed between her eyebrows. This mark was shaped like a treasure bottle. After his mental power encountered this treasure bottle mark, it disappeared inexplicably, and did not have any effect on the two women at all! This was the first time Zhang Qian knew that his mental power was also useless. In the past, he relied on his mental power to defeat many powerful enemies, but now it was strangely useless.

After pondering for a while, seeing that Jiang Muxian was looking at him with some displeasure, Zhang Qian withdrew his mind and strength. It was not convenient for him to ask at the moment, so he could only suppress his doubts.

"You are all disciples of Wentian Island, Kanli Island, and Guiyuan Island. You should know the rules of your respective islands. Although my Demon Refining Island has declined in recent years, the rules are still the rules. You sneaked into Demon Refining Island to pick the island's spiritual herbs and dig up the island's divine lotus roots at will. It was fine in the past, but now is different. You have broken the rules and must bear the punishment. This is the same even if you come before the Supreme Master!"

"What do you want?"

Jiang Muxian took a few steps forward and looked at Zhang Qian without any fear. Jiang Muyao even stuck out her tongue at Zhang Qian mischievously.

Zhang Qian smiled lightly, ignoring Jiang Muxian's burning gaze, and pointed to the tens of thousands of acres of barren spiritual fields behind them and said, "I won't bully you either. The spiritual fields behind you were once lush and green, but now they are all barren. As a punishment, you will open up these tens of thousands of acres of spiritual fields. When you have finished, the Demon Refining Array of the Demon Refining Island will naturally be removed and you will be allowed to leave!"

"what!"

"You actually want us to do hard labor!"

"How dare you? How long will it take to open up tens of thousands of acres of spiritual fields?"

"Humph, if we don't obey, will he dare to kill us?"

"That's right, don't be scared by him. There are so many of us here, how can we be afraid of him? Moreover, Fairy Jiang is here, I don't believe he dares to do that!"

Seeing the discussion below, Zhang Qian laughed: "What? You still want to suffer? The tools are ready for you, just work hard!"

"Bah, who do you think you are? Even though you are the deputy island master of the Demon Refining Island, you have no control over us."

"What a joke! Why should we listen to you? Do you think you can do whatever you want just because you are the deputy island owner?"

hum!
At this moment, a terrifying pressure suddenly descended, shocking all the clamoring disciples present.

Bang bang bang...!
A dozen of the most aggressive disciples were even sent flying by the pressure.

brush!
A sword flashed by, and Li Qingque's figure appeared.

"What? You all have objections? Well, I think my junior brother's punishment is too light. Now hand over your storage bags!"

Zhang Qian was slightly stunned. He didn't expect that his senior sister was even more ruthless than him and wanted the storage bags of everyone present.

"I dare not. I will obey your orders."

Seeing Li Qingque appear, all these people became obedient and did not dare to refute. They handed over their storage bags one by one with great pain. Zhang Qian accepted them with a smile and sighed in his heart: "My cultivation is still not enough to convince others, otherwise who would dare to look down on me like this."

"Uncle Li, my father mentioned you last year. You helped our Taikang Dynasty quell the underground demon plague. We have been grateful to you for all these years. Can you let my sister and I leave for my father's sake?"

Jiang Muxian walked forward, bowed, and spoke respectfully.
