This time, several more people stood up.
But now it was obvious that there were still a few people hiding in the crowd, but Si Yun didn't care and continued, "I'll tell you why you are divided into two groups. It's because all the direct line members will be executed. We will just question the innocent servants and let you go after that. Of course, if we find that there are direct line members hiding among the servants during the questioning, it will not be as simple as a simple questioning. Report the direct line members hiding around you now, and I can let you go directly."
As soon as these words were spoken, those direct members instantly exploded and wanted to resist. However, the remaining direct members now basically all had zero innate soul power, so how could they have any room for resistance? After Zi Ling killed a few of them, they became obedient.
"I...I reported him. He's a runaway!"
"You bastard, you want to die, don't you?" the person who was reported roared.
As soon as she finished speaking, Zi Ling shot the person being reported through the throat.
After seeing this scene, the servants around reported these immediate family members around them, and soon they were all arrested.
After selecting the candidates, Si Yun asked Zi Ling to handle the rest of the matters. It was not until the next morning that Zi Ling came to report the intelligence from last night to Si Yun.
"Young Master, we have questioned everyone last night. Most of these servants were involved in the human trafficking incident and have been executed. In addition, we have released everyone in the dungeon, but not everyone is willing to leave. They want to see you and thank you. In addition, these are all the money and property we seized from the family."
As she spoke, Zi Ling had three large boxes brought in, filled with gold, silver, jewelry, and a large number of gold soul coins.
Seeing this scene, Si Yun nodded with satisfaction.
Zi Ling seemed to have thought of something and continued, "The deacon has previously instructed that all the money collected will be handed over to you for processing, so all this money is yours."
Hearing Zi Ling's words, Si Yun was stunned for a moment, then took out 30,000 gold soul coins and said, "Take these and share them with everyone. Thank you for your hard work yesterday."
"Yes! Young Master."
With so many of them, each person can be allocated 20,000 gold soul coins out of the 30,000 gold soul coins. Although the number of gold soul coins in this box is obviously more than 300,000, Zi Ling is already very satisfied. After all, strictly speaking, all this money will be confiscated, but now Si Yun has allocated this extra money to them, which is considered good.
Si Yun did not act pretentiously and packed up all the treasures in his soul guide. After all, his cultivation was very expensive and he often needed medicinal baths and the like, so he naturally would not think that he had too much money.
Afterwards, Si Yun followed Zi Ling to the abducted people. Most of them were pretty girls, and there were also some handsome boys around fifteen years old. Xiaoyun, who was performing for a living yesterday, was also among them.
Zi Ling: "Young Master, most of these people have lost their families and are now homeless. A few don't know where they should go in the future. Because you saved them, they want to follow you."
After Zi Ling finished speaking, Si Yun felt a little troubled. Most of these people were ordinary people, not very old, and probably didn't have any survival skills. It was impossible for Si Yun to bring them all back to Wuhun City. He wanted to build his own power, but he didn't have any confidants at hand, so he had no ability to accept this group of people.
Moreover, he has only been the Holy Son for a few days, and he has started to prepare his own power so quickly. What is he thinking? Can Bibi Dong be at ease?
"Give them some money or find them a job and let them go. I don't have a stable foundation myself and I can't take them in."
"Yes, young master."
Xiaoyun and others are now looking at Si Yun nervously. They now hope that Si Yun can take them in. They want to change their fate. Following the young man in front of them is obviously a good choice. Although Si Yun only shows half of his face, he does not look like a bad person.
However, the result obviously disappointed them. After giving his instructions, Si Yun left here directly, and left the rest of the matters to Zi Ling to handle.
A few days later, Si Yun returned to the Spirit Hall.
Bibi Dong saw Si Yun coming back and stopped what she was doing. She said, "You're back. You did a good job this time. But I heard that those people you rescued wanted to join your team, but you didn't seem very willing."
"Well, I don't have the extra energy to manage these people now, so I gave them some money and sent them away."
"Is that so? If you want to establish your own power in the future, that's fine. After all, you and Nana are competitors now. Who will inherit my position in the future will depend entirely on their ability. But you can't do anything that will harm the Spirit Hall. Got it?"
"Yes, teacher."
"Besides, I heard that you were planning to let some innocent people go."
"Um."
"Foolish! I don't remember ever teaching you to be so soft-hearted."
Si Yun did not answer, but just lowered his head and silently accepted the scolding.
Bibi Dong looked at Si Yun and knew that he didn't listen. The heir of the Spirit Hall couldn't be so soft-hearted, but she didn't blame him too much.
"Forget it, you've had a hard time on this trip, go back."
"Um."
After saying that, Si Yun left the Pope's Palace.
Bibi Dong looked at Si Yun's back with a vague look in her eyes, as if she was planning something in her heart.
"Forget it. This kid won't be like this again if he gets hurt next time. He's smart. He'll wake up after getting hurt once or twice."
Thinking about this, Bibi Dong decided to start preparing the second task for Si Yun.
After Si Yun returned, he counted the spoils of this trip. After a brief count, Si Yun found that the three boxes of treasures had a total of about 500,000 gold soul coins. Although he had earned a lot of money in the Wuhun Academy in recent years, he was consuming the gold soul coins very quickly and had no money left. This money came just in time.
In addition to the gold soul coins, Si Yun also found several special gems. He quickly asked someone to come and identify them and confirmed the functions of these gems.
There are three very special-looking gems in total, one of which is a green thousand-year-old agate. The appraiser said that if this agate is put into the bathtub during bathing, it can improve physical fitness and have the effect of replenishing capital.
The second piece is a golden amber stone. If you wear this gem all year round, your body will be affected by the amber stone, and the total amount of soul power will slowly increase.
The last piece is the blue water stone. Wearing this gemstone can calm the mind and stabilize emotions. Wearing it for a long time can improve the spirit.
