Thanking Our Allies for Sending Us Seven Geniuses!

"Eldest Senior Brother! Eldest Senior Brother!"

Pei Yuan, who had just come down the mountain, hurriedly ran back up and found Zhang Yang.

"What's wrong?" Zhang Yang, somewhat surprised.

In fact, even Tu Shan, who was standing nearby, was somewhat surprised.

This kid was on the list, how come he's back so quickly?

"Eldest Senior Brother, could you lend me some money... I need 100,000 Spirit Stone!" Pei Yuan lowered his head somewhat embarrassedly, but he quickly raised it again and said earnestly, "I'll pay you back as soon as I've gathered enough!"

"Oh!" Zhang Yang took out a thousand Mid-grade Spirit Stone and handed them to Pei Yuan. "What do you need money for?"

"Life-saving money!" Pei Yuan happily accepted the Spirit Stone. Just as he was about to leave, he stopped and said, "Back then, my parents died and I was almost starving to death. It was Uncle Cheng who found me and gave me a bite to eat, which allowed me to survive."

Later, he brought me to the Azure Cloud Sect, where I became a disciple.

I owe him an immense debt of gratitude, which I thought I could never repay in my lifetime... But today I realized that his visit was all a scheme!

Since he had ulterior motives from the start, the debt of gratitude for saving my life isn't that great.

So, I gave him some money, and that settled things.

Zhang Yang stood up, walked to Pei Yuan's side, patted Pei Yuan on the shoulder, and said, "If your 100,000 Spirit Stone aren't enough, I'll give you another 100,000!"

He gave Pei Yuan another thousand Mid-grade Spirit Stone, smiled at Pei Yuan, and said, "Remember, you now owe me two hundred thousand!"

Pei Yuan paused for a moment, then immediately shouted, "I'll remember!"

He carried two bags of Spirit Stone and ran quickly down the mountain.

Zhang Yang turned to look at Tu Shan and said with a smile, "Ten Supreme-Grade Spirit Stone!"

Tu Shan sighed deeply. He knew that their sect had lost a genius!

These geniuses should have been brought back to the Langya Sacred Land, but they were sent to the Azure Cloud Sect in order to scheme against the Azure Cloud Sect... Now, one of these geniuses has become a disciple of the Azure Cloud Sect!

"Ten Supreme-Grade Spirit Stone for you!" Tu Shan took out ten Supreme-Grade Spirit Stones and handed them to Zhang Yang.

"It's okay, I'll pay them all at once!" Zhang Yang sat back down.

Tu Shan looked at Zhang Yang and asked, "Are you that confident?"

"I'm about 99% sure!"

Tu Shan was speechless upon hearing this answer.

Surely they couldn't possibly have allowed all the disciples they recruited to fall into the hands of the Azure Cloud Sect?

Zhang Changshan returned, looked at Zhang Yang, and smiled, "Eldest Senior Brother, I've got this sorted out!"

"And the result?" Tu Shan asked hurriedly.

"I have found my path in the Azure Cloud Sect, so I will not return to the Langya Sacred Land." Zhang Changshan looked at Tu Shan and said earnestly, "I have written a letter and earnestly request that you, senior, take it home for me. I wonder if you would be willing?"

Another one lost?

Tu Shan hurriedly said, "I know you. Your Zhang Family Sage's Supreme Art. Langya Sacred Land is the most suitable place for you!"

"Perhaps!" Zhang Changshan took out a letter and handed it to Tu Shan. "I have found my path in my Eldest Senior Brother! Give this letter to my father, and he should understand!"

Tu Shan received the letter, feeling somewhat uneasy.

Could it be that the genius they painstakingly discovered will actually benefit the Azure Cloud Sect?

He used his Divine Sense to examine the contents of the envelope and was speechless.

Inside the envelope was Zhang Changshan's message to his father, hoping that the Zhang Family could relocate to the Azure Cloud Continent. Zhang Changshan even thought that the envelope contained something that could greatly enhance the Zhang Family's strength.

Tu Shan frowned but remained silent.

However, he believed in his heart that in the entire world, only their Langya Sacred Land Sage's Supreme Art; were there any other places like it?

Why was Zhang Changshan so confident?

After a moment of contemplation, Tu Shan understood. He felt that Zhang Changshan's understanding was too limited and his vision too narrow; he simply did not know the greatness of the Langya Sacred Land.

After a patient wait, all seven disciples who had gone to Azure Cloud Town to meet him returned to their sect.

Zhang Yang looked at Tu Shan and smiled slightly, "Seventy Supreme-Grade Spirit Stone!"

"This is impossible!" Tu Shan jumped up. "Did your Azure Cloud Sect use Secret Method to control them? Why did they all choose your Azure Cloud Sect? Otherwise, this doesn't make any sense at all!"

Zhang Yang looked at the agitated Tu Shan and shook his head. "You guys... I can't be bothered to talk to you! Anyway, in the end, you lost!"

Tu Shan Shanqiang calmed his agitated mood, sat down, looked at Zhang Yang, and slowly said, "We are allies now, and as allies, of course we should benefit each other!"

At the very least, you have to tell us exactly how you did it.

"Care, love, recognition... these bonds are far stronger than your so-called favors, your so-called life-saving graces!" Zhang Yang smiled faintly, still revealing a little bit to the Langya Sacred Land, "You must know, they are human beings!"

If you truly treat them as human beings, they will naturally accept you. It's that simple!

Tu Shan frowned. Did they not treat their disciples like human beings?

After these disciples were accepted into the sect, they were given Cultivation Resources every month. Isn't that enough care?

He pondered for a long time, but could not find a solution. He silently handed seventy Supreme-Grade Spirit Stone to Zhang Yang, and then said with some heartache, "In this alliance, our Langya Sacred Land has not yet received any benefits, but has already paid one hundred and thirty Supreme-Grade Spirit Stone."

Your Azure Cloud Sect's foundation has indeed improved, but what about the benefits for our Langya Sacred Land?

What are our benefits as allies?

Zhang Yang smiled as he put away the Supreme-Grade Spirit Stone, and said with a grin, "The Azure Cloud Sect is about to adjust its policies. Soon, your Langya Sacred Land will feel the difference between you and other sects, and the benefits will naturally follow."

In addition, the population of Azure Cloud Town is increasing, which means that many newborns will be born in Azure Cloud Town.

These newborns need someone to teach them to read and write.

As your ally, I'm giving you this benefit!

"If you wish, you can send people to Azure Cloud Town to build an Academy!"

"Hmm?" Tu Shan asked strangely, "You want to use our people to teach your people to read and write?"

Zhang Yang slowly said, "I should say that I allow the people of Langya Sacred Land to preach in Azure Cloud Town!"

The Academy allows one person at the Dao Integration Realm to serve as the dean, a maximum of five Primordial Spirit Realm to serve as instructors, a maximum of ten people at the Nascent Soul Realm to serve as teachers, and a maximum of thirty people at the Golden Core Realm to serve as teaching assistants.

You don't need to give me an answer right away. Let's go back and discuss it before making a decision."

Tu Shan was filled with doubt and uncertainty.

The forces Zhang Yang just mentioned are those of top-tier sects.

In other words, the Langya Sacred Land dispatched a force from a first-rate sect to be stationed in Azure Cloud Town?

How can I allow someone else to snore beside my bed?

However, the Azure Cloud Sect did just that.

What is Zhang Yang really thinking?

Tu Shan sensed something was wrong and dared not make a decision easily.

He adopted Zhang Yang's suggestion to wait until he returned to his sect to discuss the matter before giving a reply.

Afterwards, Tu Shan, along with the others from Langya Sacred Land, returned to Langya Sacred Land, feeling dejected.

Of course, Kong Xiuping stayed in Azure Cloud Town.

The people from Langya Sacred Land had just left when Azure Cloud Master appeared.

When Zhang Yang saw his master appear, he knew that his master had come for the Supreme-Grade Spirit Stone, so he handed over the one hundred and thirty Supreme-Grade Spirit Stone he had just acquired.

Azure Cloud Master accepted the Supreme-Grade Spirit Stone, then looked at Zhang Yang curiously and asked, "Why did you have the Langya Sacred Land send a first-rate sect's power into Azure Cloud Town?"
