We Cannot Put Away Our Kindness Because of Others' Malice!
The Vast Heaven Holy Land's treatment of its disciples is arguably the best in the Three Continents.
Moreover, regardless of the size of the known forces, none of them can provide the same treatment to the disciples of the Vast Heaven Holy Land.
Similarly, the Vast Heaven Holy Land not only treats its disciples extremely well, but even the disciples' families can receive various subsidies.
Therefore, there is a saying in the Three Continents: "If one person enters Vast Heaven, the whole family will ascend to heaven in one step!"
Furthermore, not only the current disciples of the Vast Heaven Holy Land, but also the families of those Vast Heaven Holy Land disciples who died for various reasons, the Vast Heaven Holy Land still provides support to their direct descendants for three generations, which is truly unprecedented.
But today, facing the Grand Elder and the head elders of each palace, Chu Xinghe proposed raising the patronage from the third generation to the sixth generation.
Chu Xinghe swore to the heavens that although this upgrade would bring some losses to Vast Heaven Holy Land, to be honest, this time Chu Xinghe really wanted to seek benefits for the disciples who had shed blood for the sect and the families of his fellow disciples.
After all, if you do the math, given the current wealth of the Vast Heaven Holy Land, let alone supporting three generations of the direct descendants of deceased disciples, even supporting thirty generations wouldn't have much of an impact.
Just look at how Azure Dragon remained completely unfazed by this suggestion, and you'll know that this might be quite a drain on resources.
But it didn't even qualify for Azure Dragon Fantasy to have a holiday.
After all, the Vast Heaven Holy Land hardly loses any disciples throughout the year... Even if their descendants provide ample support, it's only a small amount of money, isn't it?
But Chu Xinghe felt that this was something he still had to do.
Chu Xinghe said that his fellow disciples had shed blood for the sect, and he could not let their blood be shed in vain. Vast Heaven Holy Land promised to support their direct relatives for six generations, which also gave their direct relatives six generations of opportunities.
If any disciple of the deceased Vast Heaven Holy Land produces someone with relatively top-tier talent within six generations, they will be qualified to re-enter the Vast Heaven Holy Land.
This is not just about providing for others; it is also about giving hope.
The reason Chu Xinghe chose the sixth generation instead of a longer one was because he felt that everything should be done in moderation.
The reason why the Vast Heaven Holy Land supports the descendants of its deceased disciples for six generations is to give them hope, not to cultivate them into useless people. If the support continues indefinitely, what will be produced in the end will not be geniuses, but only bloodsuckers and parasites.
As the old saying goes, even if it costs the sect money, there are things one should do and things one should not do!
What the hell? You're asking about the origin of this ancient saying? It's an ancient saying, of course it's from ancient times!
The heads of the various palaces largely agreed to Xinghe's idea, but a minor disagreement arose regarding providing additional assistance to the descendants of these deceased disciples.
Elder He was the first to step forward and said, "Xinghe... I think supporting six generations of my family is no problem, but as for additional assistance, we still need to consider it a bit. After all, people's hearts are unpredictable, and not everyone who says they need help is necessarily genuine. I, Old He, encountered some unpleasant things a few years ago."
Elder He then began to recount what had happened about ten years ago.
Ten years ago, a disciple of the Thunder Palace died, and Vast Heaven Holy Land, in accordance with its rules, provided for his descendants.
To be honest, although the Vast Heaven Holy Land was still the Vast Heaven Sect back then, the treatment it provided was extremely high. It's no exaggeration to say that the resources it provided to the descendants of this disciple were enough for their family to live a wealthy life, while also ensuring that the cultivation of their descendants was not lagging behind.
However, this descendant of the Thunder Palace disciple repeatedly visited Elder He, hoping to obtain more resources. Initially, the reason given was that his family's resources were excessive... later, it became that his cultivation consumed too much energy...
On the first few occasions, out of concern for his deceased disciples, Elder He granted the various requests of their descendants.
However, when faced with the other party's repeated visits demanding resources, Elder He sent disciples from the Thunder Palace to investigate. The final result almost made Elder He he wanted to kill someone.
The claim that his family's resources were excessive and his cultivation was extremely taxing is utter nonsense. This descendant of a deceased disciple of the Thunder Palace indulged in all sorts of vices, including eating, drinking, gambling, and whoring, and was incredibly extravagant in his area.
They frequented brothels and casinos, where VIPs were practically part of the scene!
The so-called "high consumption" is all money being wasted on casinos and brothels.
What do you mean by "cultivation is too taxing"? This guy's talent is actually passable, but he's already been ruined by wine and women, and he doesn't even bother with cultivation anymore.
Therefore, Elder He felt it was fine to provide normal support for the descendants of these deceased disciples for six generations of their families. However, Elder He objected to providing additional resources for those who encountered difficulties.
It wasn't just Elder He.
Elder Yu also stepped forward to say that Azure Wood Palace had encountered the same thing.
The other palaces also spoke up, saying that they had encountered similar situations before. It wasn't about the resources, but rather the feeling of being deceived.
Only the Dark Moon Palace says... death? What is death? Can someone explain to us Dark Moon Clan what death feels like?
Everyone ignored the Great Sage, but their opinions were largely the same, because each palace had been deceived by this... so everyone was against it.
Just as each of the palace chiefs was recounting the deception they had encountered, Chu Xinghe spoke up.
"Elder... all the chief elders... Xinghe understands the reasoning you have given, and Xinghe also understands the anger you feel when you were deceived despite your sincerity towards your deceased disciples... but..."
"Have you elders considered this? We may have been deceived a thousand times, but at least once did we truly help the descendants of our deceased disciple..."
"If we refuse to help, it might prevent those who try to swindle resources from our Vast Heaven Holy Land from succeeding, but it will also leave the descendants of the deceased disciples of the Vast Heaven Holy Land who truly need help with nowhere to turn..."
"On this point, Xinghe has a different perspective from you. In Xinghe's view, even if our Vast Heaven Holy Land intervenes a thousand times, and even if we are deceived nine hundred and ninety-nine times out of those thousand times, as long as we truly help the descendants of our fellow disciples even once, it will be worthwhile."
"Even if our Vast Heaven Holy Land is deceived a thousand or ten thousand times, will the resources consumed really cripple us? If just one of these deceptions truly helps them, it might change the fate of their entire family."
"We cannot withhold our kindness just because others may harbor ill intentions, because kindness is not given to evil people, but to those who truly need it... We cannot block the only avenue for our deceased fellow disciples' descendants to seek our help just because there is a possibility of being deceived..."
"After all... their ancestors shed blood for the Vast Heaven Holy Land, we should not forget them..."
"The Vast Heaven Holy Land has a complete intelligence system. Senior Brother Shen Chun, if you were to build an intelligence network to verify whether someone is lying, how long would it take?"
As soon as Chu Xinghe finished speaking, Senior Brother Shen Chun suddenly appeared from some unexpected corner!
"Junior Brother Xinghe, if we disregard the costs, we can probably build a basic framework within a year, and a complete structure within three to five years."
Chu Xinghe: "Then let's do it!"
Shen Chun: "Junior Brother Xinghe, do you know that this system requires a huge amount of resources..."
"Senior Brother Shen Chun, we are from the Vast Heaven Holy Land. Sometimes we can't just consider gains and losses when we do things; we should consider the significance of the matter. When something has its own meaning, we should do it no matter how much it costs us."
After Chu Xinghe said this, the entire council hall of the Spirit Crane Palace fell silent.
As Chu Xinghe said, Vast Heaven Holy Land has been making huge profits all these years, but no one should forget that the reason Vast Heaven Holy Land does everything should not be for the sake of making huge profits.
When something has its due significance, the Vast Heaven Holy Land should still do it, no matter how much it costs.
At this moment, all the chief elders couldn't help but sigh as they looked at the Xinghe before them.
Xinghe's benevolence and righteousness are forever ingrained in his bones.
Because in this kind of situation, any other force would immediately think that the investment is too large, yet it can only help a very small number of people, and they would also have to face all kinds of deception. Wouldn't that be a losing proposition?
But just as Xinghe said, does the Vast Heaven Holy Land really need these few measly things?
What is the purpose of Vast Heaven Holy Land acquiring so many resources? Is it just to ensure that the disciples of the Civil Engineering Departments never have a holiday?
On the contrary... if a sect wants to prosper, all its resources should be used to serve its disciples and the sect.
The Vast Heaven Holy Land already treats its disciples with almost maximum care, but this Xinghe event not only needs to be maximized, it needs to be maximized to the maximum.
If this matter is successfully accomplished, then every disciple of the Vast Heaven Holy Land will not only enjoy unparalleled treatment, but even if they die unexpectedly, the Vast Heaven Holy Land will still ensure that their descendants have no worries.
Of course, the Vast Heaven Holy Land is not a place where those bloodsucking parasites can leech off others at will. Once this system is successfully established, it can help the descendants of all the deceased disciples who need assistance, and it can also easily uncover the truth about those bloodsucking parasites.
We will absolutely not give them any chance to leech off the Vast Heaven Holy Land!
Faced with Xinghe's proposal, all the chief elders nodded in agreement. Although the initial costs would be enormous, as Xinghe said, it had its own significance.
Seeing that all the elders had voted in favor, Chu Xinghe smiled.
What the hell? You're saying I, Chu Xinghe, am trying to wear down the sect this time?
That's right... I, Chu Xinghe, wanted to deplete the sect's resources... But as the old saying goes, there are things one should do and things one shouldn't do when depleting the sect's resources. Although I, Chu Xinghe, have depleted the sect's resources in this battle, I have done so sincerely and with good intentions!
I've been so kind to the sect, how am I supposed to lose this round?
And do you think my plan, Chu Xinghe, ends here?
Absolutely wrong!
I, Chu Xinghe, have a follow-up plan for this round...
Aren't awakened spirit beasts very popular? Aren't they quite expensive?
That's only true if it can be sold at a high price...
This time, Lao Tzu not only wants to establish a complete care plan for the Vast Heaven Holy Land, but also for the descendants of those deceased Vast Heaven Holy Land disciples, as long as they are honest, law-abiding, and hardworking.
I, Chu Xinghe, will defy fate and bestow upon them immense wealth and honor!
