You Want to Pay Without Getting Anything? Dream On!
As the saying goes... one should not be too greedy...
Look, I, Chu Xinghe, used to make a killing every time... but now I'm getting utterly crushed by the Misfortune Compass...
But this time!
Although I, Chu Xinghe, was stabbed through the heart by White Tiger, it seems like I lost... but in reality, this match can only be considered a draw at best!
After all, we didn't lose anything, but we didn't make any money either, right...?
It seems like I, Chu Xinghe, did a lot of work but ended up not winning any coins. But similarly, didn't Misfortune and Luck also fail to win any coins after working for so long?
So even with misfortune and good fortune combined, they only managed to fight me Chu Xinghe, to a draw!
I can draw against both luck and misfortune, so can you say I, Chu Xinghe, lost this time?
I, Chu Xinghe, didn't lose at all!
If I can achieve a draw with the Misfortune Compass today, then I can crush Misfortune Compass to the ground tomorrow... This is a small step for me, Chu Xinghe, but also a giant leap for success!
So Chu Xinghe kicked Ma Liang, who was jumping around, almost making him fall flat on his backside.
"Quickly return all resources to all parties!"
"Yes!" Ma Liang immediately began making arrangements after receiving the order!
Watching Ma Liang run off to work, Chu Xinghe remained calm... "I'm giving up all the resources this game; I'm aiming for a draw! I don't even know what losing means!"
Whether Chu Xinghe knew what defeat meant was another matter, but the Civil Engineering Department students were crying their eyes out!
Many Civil Engineering Department students fainted from crying as they held their already-written leave slips!
Senior Brother Feng Fei... This is outrageous! We Civil Engineering Department students are doomed!
We've already filled out our annual leave slips... and now you're telling us we don't have to contribute any resources at all... This is unbearable...
The lives of the Civil Engineering Department students are also lives...
One of the newly enrolled Civil Engineering Department students was crying adorably with teary eyes...
You should know that before entering the Vast Heaven Sect, he had inquired about the Civil Engineering Departments...
Each sect has Civil Engineering Department, but the disciples of the Civil Engineering Department are particularly known for their leisurely lifestyle.
After all, no Civil Engineering Department student can be doing construction work every day...
Generally speaking, a major sect might be lucky to have a large project once every year or two... In less prestigious sects, it might not be possible to have a large project for three to five years. Therefore, the disciples of the Civil Engineering Department spend their days either cultivating or slacking off... Their lives are incredibly happy.
But after this junior brother from the Civil Engineering Department entered the Vast Heaven Sect, he discovered that it wasn't like that at all!
On their first day in the sect, other disciples would visit the sect elders in various palaces...
On his first day at the sect, he was taken to see various treasure vaults...
At first, the junior brother was stunned by the dazzling array of treasures... Is this really our Vast Heaven Sect? We're so rich!
We have unlimited resources... we're so happy!
But this joy lasted less than a morning. In the afternoon, faced with truckloads of treasures and resources displayed outside, Senior Brother Feng said, "Junior Brother... you're in charge of all these resources and treasures... you're responsible for building the treasure vault and storing them properly..."
Of course... junior brother, if you like anything... just take it... use the resources however you like, don't be shy with your senior brother!
The junior brother was so excited, his eyes welled up with tears... Oh my... This is the Vast Heaven Sect... So many resources and treasures... I'm so happy...
Afterwards... the junior brother selected his favorite treasures and resources, and then used his earth and wood skills to build a treasure vault to properly store the remaining resources and treasures. But as soon as he finished, the place where he had just stored the treasures and resources... was filled with even more resources and treasures than before.
Senior Brother Feng will say it again... Junior Brother... Take it if you like, and put it away properly afterwards...
Junior brother. "Thank you, senior brother..."
Then the Endless Cycle of Reincarnation began... The junior brother discovered that no matter how hard he tried... those resources would never decrease.
He once suspected that the sect might have something like a treasure basin... capable of infinitely replicating resources and treasures!
But as it turns out, the Vast Heaven Sect is far more terrifying than the Treasure Basin... because the Treasure Basin has a cooldown period for duplication... while the Vast Heaven Sect's resources are just getting more and more...
The junior student finally understood why the senior students in the Civil Engineering Department all looked at him like he was an idiot!
Once you enter the world of civil engineering, there's no going back to annual leave!
This is the current situation of the Civil Engineering Department disciples of the Vast Heaven Sect!
I was finally going to take my annual leave... but now... with the appearance of the Four Sacred Beasts... forget about my annual leave... I have to work overtime to finish all the work I slacked off on... The Civil Engineering Department students are all devastated!
The matter of the Four Saints Marks caused a sensation across the Three Continents... Everyone was calculating how much Chu Xinghe would lose this time, but no one expected the final result to be like this!
With the Four Saints Marks now in effect, no one needs to offer resources anymore, so the Vast Heaven Sect naturally doesn't need to spend a single penny of resources to subsidize everyone!
Many smaller factions and even Rogue Person have suggested that we take back more than half of the resources... the rest can be considered our gratitude to the Vast Heaven Sect!
Upon hearing this, Chu Xinghe immediately instructed Ma Liang to arrange for the resources to be sent back to these people as soon as possible!
What the hell is this about being grateful to the Vast Heaven Sect?
The Vast Heaven Sect needs your thanks? This is how you thank the Vast Heaven Sect? Are you trying to betray me Chu Xinghe?
You little devil... you've slipped up without even realizing it!
You want to thank our Vast Heaven Sect? Not a chance!
We must return all these resources to them as soon as possible! We will never give them the chance to betray me, Chu Xinghe!
Faced with the Vast Heaven Sect's refusal to leave any more resources behind, various parties exclaimed that the Vast Heaven Sect was benevolent and righteous!
God bless Vast Heaven!
It must be said that the Vast Heaven Sect is already highly efficient, and if Senior Brother Xinghe were to arrange things with all his might, the efficiency would be even higher.
So in just three days... all the various forces and Rogue Person took all the resources. As long as you had the Vast Heaven Sect's ticket from before... the Vast Heaven Sect would refund you everything, not keeping a single penny more!
Seeing that the mountain of resources reaped from ticket sales had diminished somewhat, Chu Xinghe smiled... At this rate, the refunds should be all gone in another three days!
But as they retreated... things started to get a little strange...
For the first three days, countless people came to request refunds for their tickets, and the Vast Heaven Sect refunded them all... But after three days, some resources were refunded, but the rest... no one came to request refunds!
In response to this situation, Chu Xinghe immediately instructed Ma Liang to issue a public notice, urging all parties to withdraw their funds as soon as possible!
If you really don't have time, our Vast Heaven Sect can arrange for the Demon Demon Express to deliver the goods to your door!
Can you guys be a little more efficient...? We, the Vast Heaven Sect, are returning resources to you, and we have to urge you on? What's going on with you all?
After the announcement was sent out, although a very small number of people apologized for the delay and returned the resources... a large amount of resources, piled up like a mountain, remained unclaimed!
Chu Xinghe had Ma Liang issue three announcements in a row, even specifying a final refund deadline... but... still no one came to get their refund!
Chu Xinghe was completely dumbfounded... What are you all doing? Come and back out!
What do you mean by not giving a refund? Is this what you're doing to me?!
Chu Xinghe immediately instructed Ma Liang to send Vast Heaven Sect disciples to inquire among various minor forces and Rogue Cultivators in different regions to find out who had not yet returned the resources!
To those of you who refuse to return resources, I advise you to think twice! Don't think that just because you're not coming to return resources, I won't know who you are!
You'd better come and return it yourselves, otherwise if I find you... you'd better watch out, I'll refund you double!
You people are the worst! You should have returned the resources, but you didn't. What are you all doing? Trying to make our Vast Heaven Sect benefit? No way!
Don't let me catch you! Otherwise, you'll be in big trouble!
Chu Xinghe used all sorts of methods, including coercion and enticement...
But everyone says we've already withdrawn... those resources really aren't ours...
Not only were various factions investigated, but even the Rogue Person were thoroughly examined... Rogue Person are already poor, so they couldn't possibly fabricate anything... Therefore, the Rogue Person also stated that they had indeed withdrawn... The remaining resources truly are not ours... Your Vast Heaven Sect should be reasonable, right... You Vast Heaven Sect can't just force what isn't ours onto us, can you?
Don't we Rogue Person have any pride?
Time ticked by... The resources from selling tickets for the Vast Heaven Sect were piling up like mountains... but no one came to return them!
Chu Xinghe was so anxious he cried!
Who the hell is this? Step forward! Do you know how despicable your actions and behavior are?
You left so many resources in our Vast Heaven Sect without a second thought? What do you take our Vast Heaven Sect for? Step forward now, and I, Chu Xinghe, will forgive and forget about this...
But if you don't admit it, and I find you... then you have no idea how ruthless I, Chu Xinghe, can be!
Therefore, I advise you to think carefully! Don't drive yourselves to a dead end!
Today, since you've come to surrender yourselves, I, Chu Xinghe, will spare you because this is your first offense... But if you Buhui, then don't blame me Chu Xinghe, for being ruthless!
Ma Liang was completely dumbfounded when he saw the announcement that Senior Brother Xinghe had sent out...
Um... Senior Brother Xinghe... isn't this announcement a bit too outrageous? We're the ones requesting a refund... they're the ones claiming the resources... isn't it a bit much for us to threaten them into coming and claiming them immediately?
The problem is, even after such an outrageous and threatening announcement was made... no one came to claim it... the owners of those resources just vanished without a trace, like a stone sinking into the sea!
In a fit of rage, Chu Xinghe sent out all the spies from the Vast Heaven Sect...
Investigate! Investigate thoroughly! We must find these bad apples!
They have no idea what they're doing! Their actions are a direct challenge to my bottom line, Chu Xinghe!
I absolutely have to find out who they are... If I, Chu Xinghe, find them, I, Chu Xinghe, will never let them go!
We must settle accounts with them properly!
You think you don't need resources? Dream on!
If my Vast Heaven Sect spies find you... I, Chu Xinghe, will personally bring resources to your door. Not only will I return the resources to you, but I'll also charge you interest.
Want to get something for nothing? You're dreaming!
You think you can get the short end of the stick from me Chu Xinghe? Don't even think about it!
