Seeing Zhu Yuhuan like this, Gao Yan immediately lost interest.
"Throw her out and let her fend for herself!"
Hearing this, everyone present was somewhat surprised, not expecting that Gao Yan would actually be willing to let Zhu Yuhuan go.
"Thank you, sir! Thank you, sir!"
Seeing that Gao Yan didn't hold it against her, Zhu Yuhuan breathed a sigh of relief and kowtowed to Gao Yan several times to express her gratitude.
After ruining Zhu Yuhuan's chance to join the Divine Sparrow Immortal Sect, Gao Yan felt no sense of accomplishment or satisfaction. In his view, the Immortal Realm was a giant purgatory for the lower-level immortals.
Without hope or a future, they could only live like zombies.
As for those with bad tempers, they might even be driven crazy!
As for Zhu Yuhuan, in his eyes she was nothing more than a petty person with a twisted mind!
Although she worked in the Shuangxiu Building and the salary and benefits were good, and she wasn't forced to work, she was still doing a lowly job that involved using her looks to please others.
But she had no choice but to do it.
If she doesn't work, she will have no source of income and will likely end up like those unidentified immortals outside the city.
Therefore, Zhu Yuhuan harbored resentment!
Before her ascension, she was not only a powerful figure who ruled a region, but also a figure respected and admired by many cultivators.
But once she arrived in the immortal realm, she had no choice but to sell her body to make a living.
This kind of disparity is not something most people can accept.
It was precisely because she had accumulated a great deal of humiliation and anger in her heart over the years that she wanted to vent her inner humiliation and anger after gaining power!
Unfortunately, she chose the wrong target to vent her frustrations on.
"Ah, the Celestial Realm!"
Gao Yan sighed softly. Although he disapproved of the situation, he couldn't change it given his current status.
Several more days passed.
Of the seven people who passed the first test at the Dual Cultivation Pavilion, another one cultivated immortal power and was accepted into the Divine Sparrow Immortal Sect as a prospective disciple.
Gao Yan still sent someone to deliver 10,000 immortal stones as a congratulatory gift.
Having learned from Zhu Yuhuan's experience, the other party naturally dared not refuse the immortal stones. After happily accepting them, they even came to thank Gao Yan!
Regardless of whether the other party was sincere or out of fear, Gao Yan encouraged them to strive to break through to the Earth Immortal realm as soon as possible and change their destiny.
Because if they cannot advance to the Earth Immortal realm within ten thousand years, they will still be expelled from the Divine Sparrow Immortal Sect.
Another month has passed!
Three disciples of the Divine Sparrow Immortal Sect left Tianyao City with more than 300 prospective disciples.
And Tianyao City returned to peace once again!
That day.
Cheng Lishan posted an invitation to Gao Yan and thirteen gang leaders to a banquet.
For a moment, all thirteen gang leaders had a bad feeling!
As expected.
After a few rounds of drinks, Cheng Lishan smiled and said that Qu Houyang was trying to break through to the Celestial Immortal Realm and had consumed too many resources. Therefore, he hoped that everyone present could offer some support. He promised that he would not forget everyone after Qu Houyang broke through.
Upon hearing this, the faces of the gang leaders present all darkened.
They had just become a little better off by selling wild beast meat, but they never expected that bastard Qu Houyang would come up with another way to swindle them.
"What, none of you want my young master to break through?"
Cheng Lishan's expression darkened, and he released the aura of a ninth-level Earth Immortal, causing everyone present to feel a chill.
"Steward Cheng, please don't misunderstand. I'm just considering how many immortal stones we should provide!"
One of the gang leaders quickly said.
"It seems I misunderstood everyone. I'll punish myself with a drink!" Cheng Lishan composed himself, picked up his glass, and downed it in one gulp. Then, he looked at everyone with a smile: "Have you all decided how much you're going to donate?"
One of the gang leaders tentatively asked, "Thirty million immortal stones, what do you think, Steward Cheng?"
"I didn't hear you clearly, say it again!" Cheng Lishan said calmly.
Upon hearing this, the gang leader immediately understood that the man was complaining about the amount being too small.
So he quickly changed his tune: "Butler Cheng, I said I'd give you fifty million!"
“Say it again!” Cheng Lishan stared at the other person.
"Eighty million!" the other party said, on the verge of tears.
"Excellent, Chief Huang, well done! I thank you on behalf of my young master!"
Cheng Lishan finally smiled.
"No, no!"
The other party quickly replied.
At this moment, Cheng Lishan's gaze swept over Gao Yan and the other twelve gang leaders!
"Butler Cheng, we are also willing to donate 80 million!"
Everyone expressed their opinions.
Half an hour later, Cheng Lishan left the restaurant with 1.12 billion immortal stones, completely satisfied.
"Damn it, this is outrageous!"
One of the gang leaders slammed his fist on the table and cursed, saying that the 80 million was almost all the profits he had made from the meat of wild beasts!
"Ugh, life is getting worse and worse!"
Another gang leader chimed in.
"What can we do? Even a steward can manipulate us at will, not to mention he has two celestial guards!" another gang leader said with a wry smile.
Gao Yan echoed his sentiments a few times, then got up and left!
Having learned from the previous experience of having his storage ring looted, Cheng Lishan was exceptionally cautious on his way back to the city lord's mansion.
But no matter how careful he was, it was all in vain!
After a brief moment of distraction, he discovered that the 1.12 billion immortal stones in his storage ring were gone.
The one who made the move was naturally Gao Yan.
Seeing the earnings column reach 10.4 billion, Gao Yan smiled.
This is faster than selling wild beast meat. I really hope Cheng Lishan extorts those gang leaders a few more times.
The profit value has reached the upgrade requirement, but Gao Yan plans to raise 20 billion before upgrading together.
