After some time, the price of wild beast meat in Tianyao City continued to decline.

However, the price hasn't returned to its initial level; it's still 20% higher than before.

The source of wild beast meat is mainly from other cities. Relatively speaking, purchasing wild beast meat from other cities is safer than hunting wild beasts.

No. 18, Phoenix Street.

Gao Yan glanced at the progress of his cultivation badge.

Because he possesses a fourth-grade immortal body, his cultivation speed far surpasses that of ordinary celestial immortals.

With the added benefit of the cultivation badge's tenfold cultivation effect, his cultivation speed was like a rocket compared to other celestial immortals.

Even so, if he wanted to advance from the seventh level of the Celestial Immortal realm to the eighth level, according to the progress shown on his cultivation badge, it would take him at least a thousand years. For other Celestial Immortals, it would take at least tens of thousands of years, or even more than a hundred thousand years, to advance to a minor realm.

This is assuming there are sufficient cultivation resources.

Gao Yan was very suspicious that the world's will in the immortal realm was deliberately restricting the immortals' cultivation speed.

After all, immortals are already immortal. If their cultivation speed is not suppressed, wouldn't the immortal realm be filled with king-level immortals after hundreds of millions or billions of years?

However, having too many immortal kings will likely put considerable pressure on the immortal realm!

Ten years have passed in the blink of an eye!

Over the past ten years, Gao Yan's cultivation level has remained at the seventh level of the Celestial Immortal realm. His cultivation progress is as slow as an ant crawling, even with the cultivation badge.

Without cultivation badges, the improvement is negligible.

Fortunately, Gao Yan felt that his immortal body was about to advance. In a month at most, he would become a third-grade immortal body!

Let's talk about the gangs within Tianyao City.

Every year, 80 million immortal stones must be handed over to Qu Houyang.

Even though every gang is finding ways to extract immortal stones, they are constantly exploiting ordinary immortals.

However, their net profit still falls short of 80 million.

The Red Leaf Gang, on the other hand, has two major businesses: the Dual Cultivation Building and the casino, with an annual net profit of around 100 million.

However, after handing over 80 million, the remaining 20 million was far from enough for the Nie sisters to use for cultivation, so they were living off their savings!

Therefore, there was no gang leader in the city who didn't hate Qu Houyang.

But what can be done?

Not to mention that Qu Houyang had two Celestial Immortal guards by his side, the eight Earth Immortal level nine wild beasts alone were beyond their ability to deal with.

Previously, the Celestial Immortal forces in Baidi City, after being forced to the extreme, even dared to turn against Qu Houyang, almost killing him.

But on the Tianyao City side...

Even if you gave these gang leaders ten times the courage, they wouldn't dare!

Unable to resist Qu Houyang, they not only exploited the immortals in the city, but also cut the salaries of their own followers.

This led many late-stage Immortal Realm members to leave the gang and depart from Tianyao City for other cities.

The Red Leaf Gang did not cut salaries.

But Gao Yan believed it was only a matter of time, and he didn't think the Nie sisters could hold out for long!

That day.

Nie Hongye called Gao Yan to a meeting.

"Manager Gao, if this continues, my sisters and I will eventually give up. Do you have any good ideas?" Nie Hongye asked directly. After ten years, she still trusted Gao Yan quite a bit.

Because Gao Yan appears to be quite Buddhist, he spends his days outside of work going to the Shuangxiu Building to listen to music.

He had absolutely no intention of competing with his sisters for power and profit!

What can I do?

Gao Yan shook his head.

"Sigh!" Nie Hongye sighed softly, "Steward Gao, my sisters and I are planning to leave Tianyao City. Would you be willing to come with us?"

The sisters generally acknowledge Gao Yan's abilities and strength.

If Gao Yan can go with them, it will be easier for him to rise to prominence in other places!

"I'm sorry, leaders, I cannot leave Tianyao City for the time being!"

"Why?"

Nie Hongshu asked.

"Because my Daoist partner will probably ascend to the Immortal Realm soon!" Gao Yan explained, "As you all know, it is extremely difficult for a Human Immortal to ascend to the Immortal Realm."

"Oh well!"

Upon hearing Gao Yan's reasons, the two sisters stopped trying to persuade him, but asked him to keep it a secret and not to reveal their evacuation.

"Don't worry, I will keep my mouth shut!"

Gao Yan nodded.

Three days passed in the blink of an eye.

When Gao Yan returned to the Red Leaf Gang's headquarters, he found that Nie Hongye and Nie Hongshu were no longer there!

As expected, they must have escaped Tianyao City!

Now that they have escaped.

She no longer needed to stay at the residence, but instead came to a dual cultivation building.

Upon entering the Dual Cultivation Building, he discovered that many of the stewards and guard captains were also missing.

Clearly, they had gone with the Nie sisters.

Afterwards, he used his divine sense to check out the other dual cultivation buildings.

The situation was similar everywhere; many stewards and guard captains had disappeared.

soon.

The news that Nie Hongye and her sister had fled with their group spread quickly.

But strangely enough...

However, no gang took over the Dual Cultivation Building and the casino.

Why?

First, they might also be thinking of running away with the buckets. Second, if Cheng Lishan were to swallow up the Dual Cultivation Building and the casino, he would make them pay one or two more immortal stones. At that time, they would be too late to cry.

Therefore, it's best to remain inactive!

"You bastard!"

All the major gangs learned about Nie Hongye and her sister's escape with buckets, and Cheng Lishan naturally received the news as well.

He was furious about this!

"Someone come here!"

Cheng Lishan immediately summoned his men and ordered them to capture the Nie sisters and bring them back alive, as he wanted to make an example of them.
