After setting aside the recipe for the Spirit Turtle's essence, he pondered it for a while and then called for a deacon.
"Copy this recipe and give it to Minister Cui of the Spirit Food Department to see what he thinks."
"Yes."
...
Shou Peak.
"Martial Uncle Qi, you wanted to see me?"
Wang Ba entered Qi Yan's room and asked respectfully.
"Yes, your master… has he left?"
Qi Yan was sitting at his desk, putting down a scroll in his hand.
Wang Ba hesitated slightly, then replied, "Martial Uncle, my master has accompanied Master Guan to the West Sea Country."
"That's good… Ahem, I mean I hope everything is well with him."
Qi Yan coughed and, noticing Wang Ba's puzzled gaze, nonchalantly tossed him an identity plate:
"Your Azure Spirit Turtle has been approved by Diwu Hall, so it is now considered a sect-controlled spirit beast… This is an additional reward for you."
"There's an additional reward?"
Upon hearing this, Wang Ba immediately showed a trace of surprise and delight.
