Even Cured of His Illness, Yuan Ying Would Still Be Drooling!
The news that Chu Xinghe brought the last three Shadow Rats in the world back to the Vast Heaven Sect was hardly a secret.
When this news first came out, not only Zheng Yu, but everyone was discussing what Chu Xinghe was planning to do.
After all, you can easily find out everything about the Shadow Rats by asking any Rat Clan.
What is Shadow Rat?
That's even worse off than the Rat Thief Rat Clan.
Their combat power is practically zero... and the difficulty of upgrading them is a hundred times that of a normal Rat Clan...
And you can't even practice any cultivation techniques...
That's fine, although consuming various resources can improve your level, once the resource supply stops, your cultivation level will drop!
Isn't this utterly useless?
So everyone was stunned when they heard that Chu Xinghe had brought three of these things into the Vast Heaven Sect.
Chu Xinghe's imagination runs wild...
What's the significance of these three things joining the Vast Heaven Sect?
What else can they do besides consuming resources?
What? Does Chu Xinghe see the potential in these three to weaken the sect?
Or was it because they were rare?
So, Chu Xinghe's decision to collect three Shadow Rats was a complete loss, okay?
But at this moment, as Zheng Yu brought out the news of the Shadow Rat, everyone who heard it was stunned.
What the heck? The Shadow Rat can create infinite Shadow Clones?
Given enough resources, theoretically, one person could create tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of clones?
While these clones cannot cultivate martial arts techniques, they can manage to learn a small amount of the Ancient Heaven-Reaching Talisman Art...
Now, the Vast Heaven Sect doesn't need a large number of disciples at all; just three Shadow Rats can produce hundreds of thousands of Spirit Pattern Cloth per day?
Is this even reasonable?
Although the three Shadow Rats consume a huge amount of resources every day, it's nothing compared to the value of the Spirit Pattern Cloth they produce...
Even if they consume a lot, it probably won't be as valuable as the Spirit Pattern Cloth they sell for...
What happened to the claim that the Shadow Rat was useless?
Chu Xinghe turned these three Shadow Rat into resource-generating machines?
However, although everyone was distressed, there was nothing they could do...
Because these three Shadow Rat are the last three Shadow Rat in the world... You won't find any other Shadow Rat to do the same thing for you, it's a complete monopoly.
The Spirit Pattern Cloth Vast Heaven Weaving is selling like hotcakes...
Although Shadow Rats produce hundreds of thousands of Spirit Pattern Cloth daily, there are simply too many people in the world... and the number of Rogue Cultivators is countless.
The hundreds of thousands of Spirit Pattern Cloth are put on the shelves every day are basically sold out immediately... I heard that the black market has increased the price of Spirit Pattern Cloth Vast Heaven Weaving several times over, but even so, the supply still cannot meet the demand.
Zhou Ping'an finally understood why people said that wherever Senior Brother Xinghe went, wealth and prosperity would follow...
Previously, Vast Heaven Weaving, which had remained inconspicuous within the vast Vast Heaven Sect's industry, has now risen to prominence.
Previously, Senior Brother Xinghe absolutely refused to allow the sale of the old version of the Spirit Pattern Cloth, Zhou Ping'an didn't understand why... but now Zhou Ping'an understands...
The old version of Spirit Pattern Cloth was expensive to produce, and even selling it didn't make a profit... But the profit margin on the new version of Spirit Pattern Cloth is terrifying!
In just a few short days... major sects such as Martial Emperor City, Star Moon Sect, and East Moon Pavilion have all sent important figures to visit them to discuss business.
Although the effect of this Spirit Pattern Cloth isn't very strong, details determine success or failure. If your disciples can be even slightly stronger than those of other families, then your disciples will definitely be able to surpass them.
Each sect certainly understood this principle. They couldn't afford the old version of the Spirit Pattern Cloth, but they could easily equip all their disciples with the new version.
This wave of orders is like crazy... Zhou Ping'an's orders are booked until the year after next... and this is after Zhou Ping'an turned down countless large orders, there's just too many orders.
If all of them were sold to the major sects, the order book would probably stretch to the next ten years.
Moreover, Senior Brother Xinghe has also made arrangements that all the Spirit Pattern Cloth produced must not be supplied only to the major sects, but at least half of it must be used to benefit independent Rogue Cultivators throughout the world.
This also gives a chance to Rogue Cultivators across the land; we can't let all the good things be monopolized by large sects.
Wherever Zhou Ping'an goes these days, various sects come to him to discuss business, and countless people even secretly offer him gifts in hopes of obtaining more Spirit Pattern Cloth, but Zhou Ping'an dares not accept a single penny of them.
Because Zhou Ping'an knew that Senior Brother Xinghe hated those who engaged in underhanded tactics...
I, Zhou Ping'an, now control the entire Vast Heaven Weaving. What resources can't I obtain? Why would I ruin my future for something as trivial as yours?
The moment the Demonic Sect Vast Heaven Sect started selling Spirit Pattern Cloth, Yuan Ying was so excited he almost peed himself!
See... my plan, Yuan Ying, has finally succeeded!
If we flood the market with large quantities of Black Demon Cloth, the Vast Heaven Sect will surely screw us over!
But before Yuan Ying could even rejoice, they discovered... the Spirit Pattern Cloth sold by the Vast Heaven Sect seemed to be slightly different from what they produced...
What the hell is this new type of Spirit Pattern Cloth?
Wu Xingyun had no idea what this new type of Spirit Pattern Cloth was. All Wu Xingyun knew was that the Yuan Ying Vice Sect Master... as the Vice Sect Master of our Demonic Shadow Sect... shouldn't you take responsibility for this incident?
Yuan Ying was furious that he had become the vice sect leader of the Demonic Shadow Sect without a word!
Wu Xingyun... have you lost your mind? How dare you speak to me like that?
What the hell? You're saying I, Yuan Ying, promised to become the vice sect leader if we failed?
Did I ever say that? Do you believe I, Yuan Ying, will kill you right now?
In response to the arrogant attitude of Vice Sect Master Yuan Ying, Wu Xingyun remarked... Vice Sect Master Yuan Ying... have you ever heard of something called the Demonic Life Mark in our Demonic Sect?
If this thing hits you, you'll be locked onto by our Demonic Sect. That's why I placed this mark on you, Vice Yuan Ying, beforehand.
What? You say you can't feel it? That's right! Of course you can't feel it with a secret technique!
I, Wu Xingyun, am indeed no match for you, Yuan Ying... You, Yuan Ying, can kill me at any time... However, as soon as I die, the disciples of the Demonic Sect will send your news to the Vast Heaven Sect immediately. Do you believe that I can get Gu Mingchao to avenge me?
Yuan Ying: "..."
In response to Wu Xingyun's words, Yuan Ying spoke up righteously, "Sect Master... what are you saying... I, Yuan Ying, as the Vice Sect Master of the Demonic Shadow Sect... how could I possibly harbor ill intentions towards you... I, Yuan Ying, always keep my word. If I said I would be the Vice Sect Master of the Demonic Shadow Sect, I will be the Vice Sect Master of the Demonic Shadow Sect, and I will never go back on my word!"
Looking at the solemn-faced Vice Sect Master Yuan Ying, Demonic Emperor Wu Xingyun said that Vice Sect Master Yuan Ying was right, but he still preferred the arrogant and unruly way Vice Sect Master was before... You should revert to your old ways!
Upon hearing this, Yuan Ying immediately reverted to his previous arrogant demeanor and said, "If the sect leader liked it, he should have said so earlier... I'll try my best to maintain that in the future!"
Patting Yuan Ying Master Yuanying on the shoulder, Wu Xingyun said with a satisfied expression that the Vice Sect Master was a wise man who knew when to yield; this was a huge profit for our Demonic Sect!
May the Demonic Sect be blessed!
That night, Wu Xingyun ordered the Demonic Sect to hold a grand celebration...
At the same time, the position of vice sect leader that has been vacant in our Demonic Shadow Sect for many years has finally been filled!
Whether the deputy sect leader of the Demonic Sect has been found is unknown... but that night, another word of injustice appeared on Yuan Ying's face...
Despite being wronged, Yuan Ying did not forget his goal because of the temporary injustice.
All the Black Demon Cloth he prepared this time was not entirely useless!
Your Vast Heaven Sect refuses to sell regular Spirit Pattern Cloth, is that it...? Do you think that means I, Yuan Ying, will lose?
On the contrary... Yuan Ying had a new plan in mind.
Since the Vast Heaven Sect doesn't sell Spirit Pattern Cloth, we'll secretly send all the Black Demon Cloth to the Vast Heaven Sect... Throw the Black Demon Cloth to the Vast Heaven Sect. This Black Demon Cloth looks exactly the same as the Spirit Pattern Cloth. Apart from my Yuan Ying's secret technique, even the people of the Vast Heaven Sect can't easily distinguish between the Spirit Pattern Cloth and the Black Demon Cloth.
If the Vast Heaven Sect were to use the Black Vast Heaven Sect Black Demon Cloth that I sent to them to make disciple robes, then it wouldn't be long before countless Vast Heaven Sect disciples would suffer from demonic possession while wearing the Black Demon Cloth disciple robes!
So I haven't lost this game of Yuan Ying yet!
Wu Xingyun and Tantai Jing also expressed their support for Vice Yuan Ying Master Yuanying's idea.
After all, this batch of Black Demon Cloth is absolutely useless to the Demonic Sect right now.
If this thing can really cause a large number of the Vast Heaven Sect disciples to suffer from qi deviation as Yuan Ying said, then the Demonic Sect will definitely make a huge profit!
That night... a dark figure quietly infiltrated the outermost edge of the Haotian Mountain Range...
It wasn't that the Yuan Ying couldn't avoid the Little Bear King's patrol; the main problem was that the Yuan Ying wasn't confident it could avoid Gu Mingchao's Mystic God lock-on.
Therefore, this outermost area is the limit that the Yuan Ying can reach.
After finding the best spot, Yuan Ying threw all the Black Demon Cloth from his Qiankun Ring into a conspicuous location without saying a word. Once he was sure the spot would be discovered in the shortest time, Yuan Ying turned and left!
Shortly after the Yuan Ying left, the large amount of Black Demon Cloth it had left behind was discovered by the Bear Clan were patrolling immediately!
The Bear Clan was stunned by the mountain of Spirit Pattern Cloth...
Who is this... so enthusiastic? Throwing so much Spirit Pattern Cloth at our Vast Heaven Sect without warning?
The Bear Clan immediately reported the massive quantity of Spirit Pattern Cloth to their sect, and even the Grand Elder rushed to the scene to investigate this strange event.
Looking at the mountain of Spirit Pattern Cloth, the Grand Elder was completely bewildered...
So much Spirit Pattern Cloth is priceless... Who said it would just be lost here?
Just as the Grand Elder was looking puzzled, the Little Bear King kept sniffing the scent on the Spirit Pattern Cloth, and finally the Little Bear King's brows furrowed together.
"Elder... this... it seems to be the aura of the Yuan Ying!"
Grand Elder: "???"
The Vast Heaven Sect members. "???"
Yuan Ying? Which Yuan Ying? Is it the Yuan Ying who'd readily resort to violence against Xinghe?
The whole world knows about Yuan Ying's blood feud with Xinghe... Our Vast Heaven Sect still doesn't understand why Yuan Ying, who clearly has a blood feud with Xinghe, would help Xinghe. Why has Yuan Ying made another move?
And then, out of the blue, they sent us so much Spirit Pattern Cloth?
This Yuan Ying is more than just mentally ill...
Even if Yuan Ying's illness were cured, people would still drool over it!
