Chapter 38 - Chapter 38: Ten Thousand Demons Pavilion

"Ninth Granduncle, does the sect have a station in Tieling County?"

Qin Feng was slightly taken aback and asked with some confusion.

His father had mentioned matters concerning the Commandery before and had not said anything about a station.

"Hehe, calling it a station might be an overstatement. It's actually Ten Thousand Demons Pavilion, a shop under the sect's Foreign Affairs Hall."

Qin Guanbao laughed. "Every time the sect recruits disciples, this place is used as a temporary station, hence the name."

"I see."

Qin Feng nodded and didn't ask further.

In fact, he still felt a bit puzzled inside.

Although he knew that the sect didn't recruit many disciples every year from Tieling County and its nine affiliate cities, Tieling County was only one of the twenty-eight counties in the Chu Kingdom.

When the Outer Sect Elders travel through the counties of the Chu Kingdom to recruit disciples, they are usually accompanied by at least a thousand disciples by the time they reach Tieling. Could a small branch of the Ten Thousand Demons Pavilion really accommodate so many people?

However, his doubts dissipated completely as they arrived at the Ten Thousand Demons Pavilion.

The Ten Thousand Demons Pavilion was indeed a shop, but it was entirely different from any shop Qin Feng had known.

It wasn't just because of the Pavilion's grand and luxurious appearance, but mainly because the vast expanse of land behind the shop belonged entirely to the Pavilion, with its various buildings forming a large estate, more than ten times larger than the Qin Family's mansion.

In fact, the place was mostly used as a warehouse. It was only during the annual disciple recruitment that it was used to host the sect's Elders and the numerous new disciples.

"Haha, Old Yang, an old friend has come, aren't you going to greet us?"

As soon as they entered the pavilion, Qin Guanbao laughed heartily and called out to an elder inside.

The elder was Yang Kaitai, the manager of the Ten Thousand Demons Pavilion.

Manager Yang looked up and couldn't help but laugh. "Senior Brother Qin, didn't you just visit the Commandery a while ago? According to your habits, shouldn't you come back in a few months? Why are you here so early this time? Could it be something about Baihua Pavilion's Fuxiang..."

"Mind your words!"

Before he could finish his sentence, Qin Guanbao interrupted him.

The Old Family Master adopted a stern expression. "What nonsense about Fuxiang? I have always conducted myself with propriety. How could I be a person seeking fleeting pleasures?

It's fine if you joke with me usually, but today there are juniors present. Don't tarnish my reputation."

Upon hearing this, although Manager Yang inwardly scorned the old man's fake propriety, he quickly realized something when he saw the young couple behind Qin Guanbao. It seemed the Qin Family intended to send family members into the sect this year.

He immediately changed his tone. "Haha, just kidding, Senior Brother Qin, don't take it to heart."

Saying this, he put down the ledger in his hand, came forward to greet them, and looked at Qin Feng and Qin Xi with a smile. "The juniors personally chosen by Senior Brother Qin must be outstanding talents.

Hmm, this child has already reached the third level of Qi Refinement, indeed not bad. He will surely achieve great things in the future upon joining the sect."

"Hehe."

Qin Guanbao smiled with satisfaction. "Of course, don't you know my discerning eye?"

He turned to Qin Feng and the others. "This is my old friend Yang Kaitai, whom I met back in the sect. He is now the manager of the Ten Thousand Demons Pavilion in Tieling County."

"Greetings, Manager Yang."

Qin Feng bowed slightly, and Qin Xi followed suit without saying a word.

Manager Yang laughed heartily, waved his hand, and after a brief chat with Qin Guanbao, personally led the three of them to the residence behind the pavilion, where he picked a small courtyard for them.

Though they would only stay for a few days and leave soon after the Outer Sect Elders from the Beast Taming Sect arrived to recruit disciples, they were still very pleased with Manager Yang's arrangements.

Actually, Manager Yang mainly did this as a favor to Qin Guanbao. Otherwise, if it were any other small family from other cities, they might not receive such preferential treatment.

After familiarizing themselves with their respective rooms, they followed Qin Guanbao out of the courtyard to explore the surroundings.

After all, it was the first time these two juniors had gone out. It was good to show them the world, and now with him around to teach them some experiences of traveling, they would have to rely on themselves in the future.

Their first destination was actually their sect's shop, the Ten Thousand Demons Pavilion.

"Ten Thousand Demons Pavilion handles the sect's various businesses, collecting various cultivation resources to supply the sect's cultivation needs."

As Qin Guanbao led them through the pavilion filled with a dazzling array of items, he said, "Of course, the pavilion mainly deals with matters related to demon beasts.

Whether it's various live demon beasts and spiritual beasts or any related resources, elixir pills, including fur, scale armor, teeth, claws, bones, or demon cores—everything is here.

After all, our Beast Taming Sect might lack many things, but one thing it doesn't lack is all kinds of demon beasts.

In fact, whether for alchemy, artifact refining, or talisman making, some materials from demon beasts are often required, so the pavilion's business is quite good."

As he spoke, they had already arrived on the third floor.

Unlike the first two floors filled with various items and elixirs, the third floor's hall was lined with cages of various sizes, containing all sorts of demon beasts and their cubs, which intrigued Qin Xi.

She asked, "Do cultivators of other systems also tame spiritual beasts?"

She had thought that only cultivators from the Beast Taming Sect tamed demon beasts, but she didn't expect to see so many here.

Qin Guanbao smiled slightly. "The cultivation world is not limited to the Beast Taming Sect for raising demon beasts. Many accomplished or wealthy individuals also like keeping a spiritual beast by their side. They can act as pets but, more importantly, have formidable war power and can help in critical moments.

They merely use the spiritual beasts to assist them in battle. To truly unleash the full potential of these beasts, only our Beast Taming Sect knows how."

As he said this, the Old Family Master couldn't help but show a hint of pride on his face.

After all, the reputation was built upon the Beast Taming Sect's strength over the years.

Qin Feng circled the cages and found that apart from a few adult demon beasts restricted by Spiritual Beast Rings, most were young demon beasts.

Moreover, these young beasts were mostly those with cute and attractive appearances.

Especially when he saw the cute cat demons, spiritual minks, little spiritual foxes, and tiny squirrels, he almost thought it was a store specializing in selling cute pets.

After voicing his doubt, Qin Guanbao laughed. "These young beasts are mainly sold to female cultivators.

Many female cultivators like these kinds of spiritual beasts, so the pavilion caters to their preferences.

As for the adult demon beasts, they are mainly sold to cultivators preparing to travel or seek treasures in dangerous places. Having a demon beast by their side, apart from having an extra helper in critical moments, many demon beasts have unique abilities."

He pointed to a slender spiritual dog nearby and said, "This is a Thin-Belt Spiritual Dog, specially trained by the sect's Beast Taming Hall. It has exceptional scent sensitivity. It's very effective for searching for spiritual objects or tracking opponents.

That Golden-Eyed Eagle over there flies high and fast. Its natural golden pupils can clearly see everything within a hundred miles, making it excellent for scouting."
