Dividing the Money (3)

The members of the Four Great Families exchanged glances. They thought to themselves, "No wonder our Old Ancestor chose him as his personal disciple; he truly is a talent!" Bi Shan gave Bi Zicong a meaningful look, while the latter shook his head and smiled wryly.

Many people on Fu Xian Island sighed inwardly. Such a talented person had actually been expelled from the sect by Fu Xian Island. If he were still alive, given time, he could take over Dongfang Changao's position and act as Fuxian Fu Xian Island's representative in the Cultivation World. He would surely be able to secure the greatest benefits for Fu Xian Island. Fu Xian Island is currently lacking people like him who dare to be shameless!

Chou Wuyuan's expression twitched repeatedly. He still couldn't understand whether Yue Qianchou's statement about wanting to join the Myriad Demon Palace was true or false...

Yue Qianchou stood solemnly beside the knife, arms crossed, seemingly determined to uphold fairness and justice. In truth, everyone knew what was really going on; it wasn't as righteous as he made it out to be. Ultimately, it was all about money, but no one dared to criticize him.

That's just how it is. There are things everyone knows the truth about but won't say. Once it's out in the open, everyone loses face. And if things escalate into a fight, the consequences are unpredictable. After all, those sitting here aren't children; impulsiveness comes at a price. On the other hand, if Yue Qianchou didn't have some strength and dared to cause trouble here, he'd probably be slapped to death long ago. Similarly, if that were the case, he wouldn't have come here to court death. One should act according to one's abilities. Acting recklessly will only bring suffering upon oneself, not others.

In the silence, Yan Wuchen, Niu Sen Ji Nian, Fan Benlei, and Dongfang Changao entered together, their auras of power instantly enveloping the entire area. These five were renowned figures from Righteous and Demonic paths, and everyone present stood at attention in respect. Their pupils constricted slightly as they spotted the large sword standing in the center of the arena, and Yue Qianchou guarding its side.

"What happened?" Yan Wuchen, who was standing in the center, coldly swept his gaze across the entire room and asked in a deep voice. Chou Wuyuan immediately went over and respectfully explained the whole story. At the same time, Quan Deming also took the initiative to come up to Ji Nian and Fan Benlei to tell their stories.

After understanding what was going on, Yan Wuchen glanced slightly at the people beside him, then fixed his eyes on the unmoving Yue Qianchou, and slowly walked over. Yue Qianchou raised an eyebrow, turned his head, and met Yan Wuchen's piercing eyes. He also slowly turned around.

Yan Wuchen always exuded the aura of a superior. At this moment, he forcefully pressed down on Yue Qianchou, seemingly demanding his submission. However, Yue Qianchou's eyes narrowed slightly. His past life's domineering experiences flashed through his mind, and his long-suppressed arrogance surged forth, erupting from his entire body. The two invisible auras of superiority, one dominating the world, the other wielding absolute power, clashed violently.

Ordinary mortals might not notice anything amiss, but the cultivators present were particularly sensitive to auras and immediately spotted the unusual presence, all looking at Yue Qianchou with surprise. They clearly sensed the decisive and ruthless aura of a superior emanating from Yue Qianchou; only a long-established overlord could possess such an aura. This wasn't something that could be faked; a faked aura was entirely different from a real one. It might fool ordinary mortals, but it would be immediately exposed in the eyes of cultivators.

At this moment, all traces of Yue Qianchou's former rogue-like arrogance were gone. He had instantly transformed, now coldly and calmly meeting Yan Wuchen's gaze without the slightest fear, his aura completely matching Yan Wuchen's. They stood as equals. The members of the Four Great Families hadn't expected this side of Yue Qianchou. A hint of surprise flashed in the Ziyi's eyes, but she quickly regained her composure. How could a disciple of Elder Bi be compared to ordinary people?

Yan Wuchen frowned slightly, his gaze lingering on the black broadsword for a moment before turning to look at Human Path, "The Myriad Demon Palace agrees to Yue Qianchou's distribution method."

After saying that, he continued walking forward. When he passed Yue Qianchou, he stopped again, turned his head and said, "It is said that you are a talented young man. Seeing you today, I can confirm that your reputation is well-deserved."

"Senior Yan, you flatter me," Yue Qianchou replied calmly.

"I heard that you have accepted Palace Master Bu's invitation. I will find another opportunity to meet with you then."

"I deeply admire your esteemed demeanor, senior. It would be my greatest pleasure to speak with you, and I will certainly visit you when the opportunity arises," Yue Qianchou said with a slight bow. Negotiations between true superiors don't require much empty talk; the exchange of terms is often settled with a glance and a single sentence. The meaning is simple: Chou Wuyuan drove you away during the competition, causing you considerable offense. I am now compensating you with a significant sacrifice; let bygones be bygones. A reciprocal exchange—the other party's concession is substantial, and I have nothing to lose— Yue Qianchou naturally agreed.

Yan Wuchen nodded and walked into the Cultivation Alliance. Ji Nian, Fan Benlei, and the others also passed by Yue Qianchou. Dongfang Changao paused slightly, turned around, and said to the crowd in a deep voice, "Fu Xian Island agrees to Yue Qianchou's distribution method."

He then gave Yue Qianchou a deep look. Those of them in the higher ranks of Fu Xian Island had already received instructions from the sect leader not to provoke Yue Qianchou. Although Feng Xiangtian hadn't explained why, there was definitely something unusual behind it.

After several seemingly powerful figures entered, Chou Wuyuan and Quan Deming exchanged a glance, and the latter said loudly, "Does anyone have a different opinion?"

All the factions were somewhat surprised. How could even Yan Wuchen have conceded? This matter was rather strange! Just then, Yuan Jiukui of the Six Paths Demonic Sect suddenly shouted, "My Six Paths Demonic Sect has no objection."

The various factions were taken aback again. Yuan Jiukui had been at odds with Yue Qianchou Chou just moments before, so why had his attitude changed so quickly? Yue Qianchou himself was also somewhat puzzled. Hua Yinyue from the Wangyue Sect also spoke up, "Our Wangyue Sect has no objections either."

The crowd exchanged glances. Chou Wuyuan looked around and said in a deep voice, "If no one objects, then this matter is settled." He naturally supported his master's decision.

After waiting a while longer, still no one spoke. Chou Wuyuan n't say anything more, first taking out a Storage Bag and handing it to Quan Deming of Fu Xian Island, then taking out two more Storage Bag and handing them to Yue Qianchou. Yue Qianchou took them, quickly counted them with his Divine Sense, and after confirming that the four hundred million was correct, he directly stuffed them into the Storage Bag, then contentedly picked up the large sword from the ground and put it away. It seemed he was no longer planning to uphold fairness and justice.

The remaining two hundred million was divided according to the investment ratio, Yue Qianchou stuffed several million more into his Storage Bag. He patted the Storage Bag, then slowly swayed over to Quan Deming, glancing at the other's Storage Bag as if to say, "Now that I have money, it's time for you to pay me back!"

Quan Deming shook his head and smiled wryly, then pulled out a Storage Bag and handed it to Yue Qianchou. Yue Qianchou counted the money; fifty million was quite a sum. He put it away and, without saying much, strolled leisurely towards the outside of the Cultivation Alliance. The way everyone looked at him was hard to describe. They hadn't expected that Fu Xian Island and Myriad Demon Palace wouldn't have gotten the lion's share, but he had gotten a huge advantage.

"We made so much money! "Ziyi exclaimed excitedly as she followed them out. The two of them ran off without even saying goodbye to the Four Great Families.

In Hundred Flower Inn, Yue Qianchou returned to his room, intending to attend to some private matters, when Ziyi followed him in. He asked, "Don't you know it's dangerous for a man and a woman to be alone in a room together?"

Ziyi Robe glanced around instinctively, seemingly unaware of the danger. She then asked hesitantly, "Yue Qianchou, how much money did we make this time?"

"Nearly 460 million! Why are you asking this?" Yue Qianchou asked suspiciously, "Do you want to buy something again?"...

"No, I was just asking," said the woman in Ziyi, her face beaming with excitement and a greedy look.

Seeing the beautiful woman in such a state, Yue Qianchou couldn't bear to watch any longer. He grabbed her hand, escorted her out of the room, closed the door, and said through the door, "Go back to your own room. Don't wander around and don't disturb my rest."

"Oh!" The Ziyi figure's footsteps headed towards her room. Yue Qianchou bolted the doors and windows, then looked around the entire house to make sure no one was there before disappearing from the room.

Inside the Utopia military camp, Guan Yu stared at the three Storage Bag on the table, speechless. Five hundred million! In just a few months, he had acquired five hundred million. Was it really that easy to obtain Spirit Stone in the Cultivation World now?

"How's the effect of taking the Restriction Breaking Pill?" Yue Qianchou asked, lying on the chair with his legs propped up on the table.

Guan Yu's expression turned solemn as he said, "This Restriction Breaking Pill is indeed miraculous. Of the more than 800 Nascent Soul Realm, we have already created more than 300 early Tribulation stage experts from among them. With these 500 million, it is enough to create the remaining 500 Nascent Soul Realm into early Tribulation stage experts in a short period of time."

"Three hundred already? Good, good!" Yue Qianchou's eyes lit up, then he frowned and said, "Reaching the cultivation level doesn't mean you have the strength of the early Tribulation stage Transcending stage. Use these five hundred million as soon as possible to raise the cultivation level of the remaining five hundred people, and then gather these eight hundred people together for practical combat training. Spirit Stone are hard to come by, so I need to rely on these eight hundred people to make money. The Spirit Stone for the remaining nearly ten thousand people will depend on these eight hundred people."

Guan Yu nodded, a chill running down his spine as he recalled the sight of eight hundred well-trained Tribulation Transcendence stage cultivators being led out together. Having long organized combat training, he could imagine how terrifying it would be for these people to fight together. If Yue Qianchou were to commit some heinous act, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Keep a close eye on my two disciples and Gu Qingyun. Once they reach the Tribulation Transcendence stage, throw them into the combat training ground for a thorough beating. Ideally, treat them as simulated enemies in actual combat and give them a good beating. Of course, don't actually kill them. It's okay if they're half-dead; they can always recover and come back later," Yue Qianchou said calmly.

"Those are your disciples! How can you be so heartless?" Guan Yu hesitated. Yue Qianchou shook his head and said, "There's no such thing as heartlessness. Precisely because they are my disciples, I must be strict with them. It's better for them to shed blood and sweat in ordinary times than to go out and die..."
