Chapter 263: The Eighth Layer
At this moment, Elder Zhang Yi, who had been observing from the side, walked over.
His face bore the calm detachment of one who had seen through worldly affairs. He patted Chen Qing on the shoulder and spoke in a mild tone, "This is how the sect works. Rules are rigid, but people are flexible. In the end, where resources flow ultimately comes down to two words: 'strength.' Those with greater strength naturally receive more benefits and carry more weight in their words. This is the most fundamental principle, and it's the same everywhere."
Chen Qing nodded upon hearing this, his tone calm and unperturbed, "Elder Zhang speaks truly. This disciple understands."
Regarding these distribution rules, he truly felt no discomfort in his heart.
Today they could look down on him due to his insufficient cultivation and take away resources that should have belonged to him.
Then in the future, when he crushed them with greater strength, he would naturally need no justification either.
This was fair.
Afterward, Chen Qing cupped his fists toward Zhang Yi once more, "Regarding the batch of pills I previously purchased from the Elder, please proceed according to the original plan. I trouble the Elder to attend to this matter."
Zhang Yi smiled, "Consider it done. Once the medicinal ingredients are gathered and the furnace is fired up, I'll still have that girl He Zhi deliver them to your door."
