The second Bloodwing Blessed Land gathering was only one person less, with no other additions or subtractions. During this month, Dao Chengyi did not take the initiative to increase the number of Gu Masters in Bloodwing. On the contrary, he allocated the quota to other regions and let them develop wildly.

At this moment, he was dressed as before, his upper body covered in beast patterns, his face clad in bone armor, sitting on the white bone and blood-winged throne, looking down at the people below.

"As I said before, merits are assessed monthly and rewards are given accordingly. I hope today's statistics will not disappoint me."

Zhang Erhe, Wei Shitong, Niu Anxin, Rat Laoqi, Sun Chang, Liao Tianming, Ban Niao... Dao Chengyi glanced at the remaining three less active people, then looked away.

The three people who were being closely watched by Dao Cheng showed no fear. They were two men and one woman, a merchant, a thief, and a prostitute, and none of them had much talent in Gu Dao crafting.

"I have established close ties with 70% of the prominent families in Qingmang City, including officials, merchants, workers, and farmers. I am confident that I can further expand my network of relationships in Yunmu City and Wuyuan City next year."

A red fox scholar, exuding extreme allure, stood up and reported his achievements over the past few days in a seductive voice.

"I have already taken over ten restaurants and become an apprentice of a high-ranking official in Tianhan, Louzhou, to oversee the trade of mutton and lamb. The current profit is five thousand taels of silver."

One of the golden toads, patting its belly, replied respectfully. The others also looked at it with disdain, since blood-path Gu worms mostly need flesh and blood, with living people being the best. Having such a trade route was extremely convenient.

"We have recruited 120 skilled fighters and captured three camps, totaling over 1,000 men. We have also refined the Corpse Slave Gu, obtaining 300 Corpse Slaves, all of whom are martial artists. They are all at your command, sir!"

A jackal-man grinned and knelt as he reported the news. The three officials outside Qingmang City had given their complete report.

Listening to these people's words, apart from one bird-shaped body that shrank back a little, the others remained confident.

"Four new types of Gu have been developed, one Gu after two transformations and three Gu after one transformation. A silver mine has been discovered, and there is a large stockpile of mountain goods."

Zhang Erhe did not fully explain his situation, but he knew that Lord Bloodwing could see everything. Upon hearing Zhang Erhe's words, Jin Chan clearly became interested.

"Develop six new types of Gu, one type after two transformations, and five types after one transformation, in addition to the military formation warriors."

Wei Shitong's image is that of a hazy, colorful bubble, and when he speaks, his voice is transmitted directly into other people's brains.

This is also his new Gu, the Sensing Gu, which can imprint one's own voice or image into the memory of others. It can sense when someone gets close to a certain range. Through the theft of the Wisdom Gu, Dao Chengyi also knows that this is matched with a killing move, Red Purple Chaos.

Within the realm of bloodlines, he stood out from the crowd, relentlessly pursuing the study of the soul path, and his indomitable spirit was truly admirable.

"I have refined a new Gu and obtained the latest intelligence from Qingmang City regarding the Houbian Disaster. In addition, on my personal behalf, I am willing to donate three thousand taels of silver to contribute to the development of Bloodwing."

"Damn it," Niu Anxin thought to himself, "this is bad." He had been cultivating for the past month and was short of new Gu materials. He could only pay to avoid trouble. He dared not gamble on what the consequences of less contribution would be. Didn't he see that one person was missing and Lord Bloodwing hadn't mentioned it at all?

"Two Blood Path Battle Gu, and he has already taken control of four hundred people and built a Gu House."

Sun Chang scratched his head. At this moment, he was a tiger. He glanced at his older brother, who was like a rat, and in the end, he didn't mention donating money. At least it wasn't too bad.

"Boss Bloodwing! My contribution here is absolutely outstanding! I've newly refined the Filth-Eating Gu, which can reverse the vital energy of the infected, causing them to run wildly! This is definitely a Gu worm that can be used in battle! I've also refined the Earth-Eating Toad, which can grow by eating soil! And the Dung-Eating Gu, which can transform feces into usable substances..."

"Alright, shut up. Upload all your Gu worms, and calculate based on one-third of the same level of Gu worms."

With a casual slap, he brushed the chattering rat away. The output of Gu-refining was large, but most of them were useless. When there were not many Gu worms, they were practically useless. In particular, he did not like to study the routines and only refined Gu worms. They were just dung-making machines.

The seventh rat, who had been pushed aside, got up again, and the others spontaneously distanced themselves from this prodigy who could refine dung-eating gu, lest they be tainted by his filth.

"My lord, you must believe me! These Gu worms are definitely going to be of great use!"

Rat Seven wanted to say something more to try and gain some support, but Dao Chengyi didn't want to listen to his nonsense and silenced him with a snap of his fingers.

Now only two people remained: Liao Tianming, clad in a black robe, and Ban Niao, who was now trembling with fear.

"Fifteen types of insects were presented, two kinds of Gu insects were developed, and there is also a secret story about a calamity of the season."

Liao Tianming answered somewhat blankly. Naturally, one cannot expect too much creativity from someone whose brain has been partially eaten away by insects. In addition, the blood bee gu raised by the Liao family is of excellent quality.

"..."

"I've established an intelligence-gathering network to monitor the entire city..."

They may try to conceal the fact that they have accomplished little with lies, but in the void of the Oneness of the Tao, these people are nothing more than lambs to the slaughter; there is no freedom there.

After a long silence, the half-bird, sweating profusely, knelt down and kowtowed.

"I...I will definitely work hard! Lord Bloodwing! I will definitely gather more money and make more efforts in the next month!"

Refining Gu requires vital energy, which is the foundation of a Gu master's cultivation. This is not a process where you can create a new Gu by simply fusing ingredients; rather, it is a gamble, a drain on resources, and requires an understanding of Gu and a talent for it.

"Is it that you don't want to expend the effort to go, or that you're unwilling to go? A month has passed, and you haven't refined any new Gu. Have you refined the basic Gu worms that I placed on the monument?"
