Contract Established

"My lord, this time we've indeed reaped a lot!"

"We've gathered spirit herbs, obtained iron-hearted stone mothers, and even acquired demon pills from slaying monsters!"

With a smile, Zhe Liang revealed the contents of his backpack.

He was responsible for carrying the items, all of which were obtained in the ancient cave.

"These offerings are a token of our gratitude to you, elder brother. Please accept them!"

Zhongren spoke sincerely, all three of them feeling uplifted, eager to present their gains to Gu Lan.

However, Gu Lan waved his hand with a smile, saying, "Your intentions are enough."

"I do not need these items, and moreover, the items you obtained through your own efforts naturally belong to you!"

"You've all worked hard along the way."

"I instructed Old Yang to brew some spirit ginseng soup for you to drink and rest!"

"After resting, you can resume your cultivation."

"The path of cultivation lies in diligence and cannot be abandoned casually."
