Chapter 50: Sect Punishment
Well, as for Lordi Payne, he, of course, had no inkling of the chaos unfolding in the inner sect. His mind was too preoccupied with his own troubles to even consider such things.
The entire ride back, anxiety gnawed at him. The moment the Corpse Cloud touched down, he leapt off and thrust a piece of spirit stone into the hand of a passing senior brother, hitching a ride on the man's Dao boat to Sect Affairs Peak.
Half a day later, Lordi Payne stood in the Affairs Hall, recounting his tasks to a cold-faced disciple who listened with a smirk that is full of meaning. Without a word, the disciple processed his formalities, took the two dead demon beasts, and promptly doled out his rewards.
[Task Name]: Courier of the Drainwood Family Letter
Just a trifle—mostly travel pay.
[Reward]: 20 D$t.
[Task Name]: The Flower Demon Beasts
[Reward]: 47 D$t.
[Task Name]: The Hunt for the Purple-Eyed Mink in Lothgar Mountain
As it's a sixth-layer Enlightenment Stage demon beast, the reward reached a hundred stones.
[Reward]: 100 D$t.
