Chapter 283 Do Not Move or Die!
Chen Shuiwen and his party left in disarray.
Excitement was painted on the faces of the several hundred disciples who chose to stay at the Xiaoshanhe Institute.
This was a trillion silver taels!
One should know...
Even considering the former scale of the Xiaoshanhe Institute, the monthly expenses were only about three hundred million silver taels, even if the costs increased a hundredfold it would only amount to one hundred billion. Here, the silver was enough to sustain for more than a decade, and with the resources increasing by tens of times, even if their talents were not as good as those who followed Chen Shuiwen, they could completely make up for it with the resources!
In that moment,
Those who had been full of doubts, thinking that Xiao Yi couldn't lead the Xiaoshanhe Institute to its former glory, all showed excited expressions.
Even Yu Huaxian had never seen so many silver taels before, and he swallowed subconsciously, turning to Yan Mingli beside him, "Elder Yan, do you think Xiao managed to get his hands on so much silver? He couldn't have sold himself, right?"
Yan Mingli twitched the corner of his eye: "..."
Xue Bufan and others also gave him a deep look, with weird expressions on their faces.
Touching his chin, Yu Huaxian felt even more convinced that his guess was right and pondered, "It's only been a few days since Xiao left, and he's made a trillion silver taels! This business is definitely worth it... It's just that I don't know if it can be a long-term deal. If it can last, it may be worthwhile for Xiao to make a few more trips..."
"Yu Huaxian, I happen to know a place where you can sell your ass, are you interested?" A sinister voice suddenly rang in his ear.
"Of course I'll go... uh..." Find more to read at My Virtual Library Empire
Yu Huaxian's face stiffened as he turned to look at Xiao Yi, who had appeared before him, his face dark as coal, staring at him. He swallowed instinctively, and with a sheepish laugh, said, "Xiao... Xiao, I won't dare... ah..."
A scream pierced the air.
Yu Huaxian was directly grabbed by Xiao Yi, who changed his direction and with a thud, buried his head in the ground.
His legs stood straight up,
Like an uprooted green onion.
Xiao Yi said, "You're not allowed to come out until it gets dark!"
Yu Huaxian's aggrieved voice came from the ground: "&*()..."
Xiao Yi looked towards Yan Mingli and spoke in a deep voice, "Elder Yan, I will entrust these silver taels to your management. From now on, you will lead all matters related to finance at the Xiaoshanhe Institute!"
"Yes!"
Yan Mingli's face was filled with excitement.
This was entrusting him with the financial authority of the Xiaoshanhe Institute, a sign of absolute trust.
He looked at Xiao Yi with eyes full of gratitude.
Xiao Yi then looked towards Xue Bufan and spoke solemnly, "Elder Xue, we will be expanding the recruitment of disciples and instructors next. There will be a large shortage of medicinal pills. List out what kinds we need, and I will find a way to source them."
"Xiao, the medicinal pills in the Great Qian Dynasty are all controlled by the Nangong and Beitang families, shall I go see them?" Xue Bufan asked.
Xiao Yi pondered for a moment. Although Nangong Shengtian was previously overbearing and aggressive, just as Xue Bufan said, the medicinal pill and herb market within the Great Qian Dynasty was in the hands of these two families. If they could cooperate with them, it would definitely save a lot of trouble: "First, go to the Nangong Family to negotiate. If things don't work out, we will find another way!"
"Sure!"
Xue Bufan nodded, "I'll go right away!"
Struggling, Yu Huaxian pulled his head out of the ground, spat out a mouthful of dirt, and expressed his concern, "Xiao, now that Chen Shuiwen has taken away all the instructors, as well as so many elite disciples. Our priority should be to recruit new disciples and instructors. Otherwise, just with us here... Not to mention revitalizing the Xiaoshanhe Institute, we won't even be able to cope with the ancestral ceremony in two months!"
Yan Mingli nodded, "Xiao, Yu Huaxian makes a good point!"
Xiao Yi said, "Don't worry, I have my plans for these matters!"
His eyes narrowed into slits.
The resurgence of the Xiaoshanhe Institute was of great significance. After all, if he wanted to truly surpass Xiao Tianjiao, it would not be possible just by fighting alone.
The Xiaoshanhe Institute was the perfect platform.
Muttering to himself, Xiao Yi thought, "Xiao Tianjiao, you pride yourself on the backing of the Tianjian Sect and its massive power. But I wonder what your expression will be when I build the Xiaoshanhe Institute to rival the Tianjian Sect?"
"Yu Huaxian, from this moment on, these disciples' cultivation is entrusted to you. I will have Elder Xue and Elder Yan assist you. Whatever resources are needed, tell them directly. Spare no cost in providing for you. I want to see results in the shortest amount of time!" Xiao Yi instructed.
He was determined to thoroughly reform the Xiaoshanhe Institute.
This reform was bound to face pressure from all sides, and with his current strength, he could barely resist these pressures. But what was truly important was to address all potential concerns of the Xiaoshanhe Institute. Among these, the most critical was to secure the loyalty of the few hundred disciples before him, to offer them sufficient benefits, and to enable them to breakthrough their realms in the shortest time possible.
These individuals were the gold-plated signboard he planned to send out into the world.
Yu Huaxian understood the gravity of the situation; he patted his chest and solemnly promised, "Xiao, rest assured, I will not let you down!"
His eyes fell on the few hundred disciples, and the corners of his mouth lifted slightly: "Boys, brace yourselves for Grandpa Yu's thunderstorm!"
The few hundred disciples shuddered.
They felt a chill all over.
At this moment, they did not yet know that a storm as terrifying as hell would soon descend upon them.
Of course...
This storm was also a tremendous opportunity.
An opportunity that could change their lives!
After making all the arrangements, Xiao Yi returned to his private residence, "The strength of a sect, apart from having top warrior forces, also requires sufficient expert guidance, a substantial and high-quality group of disciples, and various types of resources... As for attracting enough experts and geniuses to join, one must show the strengths of the Xiaoshanhe Institute!"
Now that the Xiaoshanhe Institute had experienced the departure of people like Chen Shuiwen, its reputation would inevitably plummet to its lowest.
This posed a great challenge for both the Xiaoshanhe Institute and Xiao Yi.
A single misstep.
Could lead to a tarnished reputation, and then no one would wish to join the Xiaoshanhe Institute.
But this was also an opportunity.
Chen Shuiwen would undoubtedly widely publicize their departure, and at that time, many eyes would turn to the Xiaoshanhe Institute. If at this moment, they could instill confidence in everyone, letting them know the tremendous benefits of joining the Xiaoshanhe Institute, how could it worry about not attracting people?
"The formation stones from Three Seas Mountain and Wendao Villa will arrive in two days. If I can turn the entire Xiaoshanhe Institute into a cultivation holy land, it will surely attract a group of followers." At this thought, Xiao Yi's figure flashed, and he entered the eternal tomb.
His cultivation had now reached the First Layer of Tao Tribulation Realm, and the number of God Sealing Seeds he possessed was a terrifying tens of millions!
His eyes couldn't help but fall upon the tomb of Zhao Wuji.
This was a presence that stood at the very pinnacle of the outermost layer of the pyramid in the eternal tomb, Martial God Zhao Wuji, a figure shrouded in legend, a being spoken of as both god and devil.
Simultaneously...
He was also the only being among many strong figures who could be termed a "God."
Before this.
With several million God Sealing Seeds in Xiao Yi's possession, he was already close to accessing Zhao Wuji's ancient tomb. Now, with tens of millions of God Sealing Seeds, he could naturally progress further. But just as he was about to touch Zhao Wuji's ancient tomb, the God Sealing Seeds inside his body suddenly began to tremble violently, and in his mind, the anxious voice of the Wind Thunder Venerable suddenly rang out: "Do not touch! To touch is to die!"
Hiss!
Xiao Yi's face drastically changed, and he quickly withdrew his hand.
The tomb of Zhao Wuji in front of him seemed to be greatly angered, and the tombstone trembled thunderously.
The formidable pressure made Xiao Yi's face turn even paler.
The tens of millions of God Sealing Seeds inside his body trembled wildly, the terrifying black light shrouded him, and only then was he barely able to withstand that terrible pressure.
Xiao Yi drew a cold breath, looking at the ancient tomb in front of him with lingering fear: "What exactly is hidden inside Zhao Wuji's ancient tomb? Why is Wind Thunder Venerable so wary of it? Well, I will deal with it after I truly step into the Dharma Manifestation Realm!"
His gaze reluctantly moved away from Zhao Wuji's ancient tomb.
Xiao Yi arrived at the destination of his journey...@@novelbin@@
In front of this low tomb was a standing green tombstone that read—Tomb of the Great Formation Master Twin Star Taoist!
