Chapter 1227: Loaded Teammate

As for Fan Qiuhe and company, they were not aware of the fact that two yellow-spotted butterflies trailed behind them as they left…
After Qiao Mu and Little Sixth Zheng joined Huge Bear Squad, all the members surrounded the new members in a heated discussion with nonstop welcomes.
The Proud Hawk Squad, which had originally been there to watch the fun, lost interest and was about to leave.
Suddenly, Qiao Mu stopped them with a shout, “Wait up!”
“Were you the one who said just now that I was a swindler?” Qiao Mu abruptly stepped in front of Proud Hawk Squad’s captain.
That captain’s tanned face was chapped from the elements, not to mention that he also couldn’t resist leering when he saw Qiao Mu.
He took a step forward and drew near. “What, do you little lady want to give me some advice?”
“What are you doing!” Everyone in Huge Bear Squad surged over, and Captain Gao, who was in the lead, shoved away the Proud Hawk Squad’s captain.
“Stay away from our Xiao Qiao.”
Our dear Mo Lian, who had been crowded aside by the stalwart Huge Bear Squad members, felt crushed inside as he gazed at his wife from across the human wall.
This… what should he do when his wife was too popular?
“I came here to collect the herbs. Captain, how many herbs did our squad gather during this period of time.”
“Th-There are 200 thousand stalks of various kinds of primary-rank herbs, b-but you don’t need to give us 200 thousand…”
“Here!” Qiao Mu handed Captain Gao a money pouch. “This is 100 thousand high-grade mystic currency, keep it well.”
What?
Everyone gazed in stupefaction at this extravagant and loaded teammate, simply afraid to believe their own eyes.
Two hundred thousand low-grade mystic currency and 100 thousand high-grade mystic currency were not to be mentioned on equal terms.
In contrast to how low-grade magnetite was only suitable for level-one to level-four mystic cultivators to absorb, mystic cultivators level-12 and below were all able to absorb high-grade magnetite.
As for Qiao Mu, who had reached level-14 cultivation state, high-grade magnetite did not do much for her. She instead needed supreme-grade magnetite.
However, as supreme-grade magnetite mines were rare on the Sikong Planet, the manufacture of mystic currency stopped at high-grade mystic currency.
Proud Hawk Squad’s captain muttered “what dejected” with a flushed face and prepared to slink away with his tail between his legs.
Before he could do so, Sis Ge blocked him with her hands on her hips. “Hey, are you going to swallow those words that you smeared Xiao Qiao with into your stomach? Did you see that? Xiao Qiao gave our captain 100 thousand high-grade mystic currency. Do you say that she is a swindler now?”
Swindler my *ss! Have you ever seen a swindler make a down payment?
“So what, w-we’re leaving.” Proud Hawk Squad’s captain knew that he was in the wrong and fled gloomily from the crowd.
Sis Ge sniggered and then shouted “cowards” at them. Afterwards, she bolted to Qiao Mu and asked cheerfully, “Xiao Qiao, with so many herbs, are we going to help transport them to your home?”
“No need, I’ll go collect them myself.” After following Captain Gao and the rest to the empty lot, she just took out a new ebony purple storage talisman and tossed all the primary-rank herbs into it.
After making a mental note that she would need to take some time to categorize them, Qiao Mu turned to give them a nod. “Thank you.”
Captain Gao and the rest repeatedly waved their hands from side to side. After all, this was their assignment, so they didn’t need thanks.
Not to mention, they all felt a bit embarrassed from receiving so much compensation.
