Qin Xiao spoke with great interest, while Leng Tianling's expression was somewhat strange.
However, the expressions of the Liu sisters and Ye Qinghuan behind Qin Xiao were not so pleasant.
Ye Qinghuan said softly, "Brother Xiao, have you forgotten that we're still with you? Do you want to try some kind of dual cultivation?"
Qin Xiao's expression froze. This...
"Ahem, you've misunderstood me. I just wanted to go and see this world of martial arts. It seems quite interesting."
Liu Feixue remained noncommittal, "Once you've taken over the world, you'll have plenty of time to see it. Why rush to go now?"
To be honest, Liu Feixue still finds it hard to believe; this boss seems to have quite a few secrets.
It's actually possible to take over and occupy the entire world.
Seeing how much Qin Xiao valued these women, Leng Tianling immediately realized something.
"Ahem, actually, you don't need to go looking for it. With such a big commotion, experts from various schools will soon come knocking on our door. At that time, the leader and the Holy Maiden of the Yunyan Sect will probably also arrive."
Just kidding, it would be best if we didn't let them go. Keeping them in the Heavenly Sword Sect would give us a lot more room to maneuver later.
If you establish priorities from the beginning, the Heavenly Sword Sect may benefit immensely.
If we really let this guy go out and have some fun, and find something even better, wouldn't he be able to replace the Heavenly Sword Sect's position in no time?
Well, his granddaughter is too naive. As the former sect leader, he should at least consider things more carefully.
After such persuasion, Qin Xiao didn't dare to say anything more. If it were just the Liu sisters, it wouldn't matter, but the main problem was that Ye Qinghuan was also there, so he really didn't dare to do anything reckless.
Feeling bored, he sat down in a chair and chatted idly with Leng Tianling.
Liu Feixue had already gotten into the zone and started asking some basic questions.
For example, how many people are at the Gold rank or above, how many are at the Platinum rank, and how fast or slow their cultivation is.
There are also some local specialties, rare and precious herbs, and so on.
According to Qin Xiao's arrangements and plans, these matters will be handled by them from now on.
Once the secret realms of the Imperial Shrine are integrated, these things will need to be selected to form their own industry by selecting suitable products.
Then, suitable candidates need to be selected, trained, and appointed.
After some questioning, Liu Feixue had some ideas in mind.
After Leng Tianling left, Liu Feixue frowned and said.
"Boss, this secret realm seems to have great potential for development. Besides the population resources, the cultivation speed is also very fast."
If we find a group of these people and train them, they can quickly become a fighting force. Moreover, there are many rare and precious materials available, so they can be mass-produced.
But how will we restrain these people then? After all, it ultimately comes down to the individuals themselves; how can we guarantee their loyalty?
Qin Xiao nodded. "This is indeed a difficult problem. After my Jianmu takes over this world, although I can lock the cultivation limit of these people and even sense them to some extent, I can't guarantee that they won't betray me."
Thinking of this, Qin Xiao couldn't help but think of the behavior of those evil gods.
No wonder when those evil gods discover a new world, they mostly resort to violent mining and destruction. If a suitable world is found, they will spread their faith.
No matter what you do, you're playing to the death.
Now he plans to use these people to build his power base, and loyalty is a major issue.
After all, it's hard to guard against those crazy people who don't care about family, sect, relatives, or friends.
"Let's try to select people from the Heavenly Sword Sect first, and start by cooperating with and recruiting some more upright individuals."
In the end, Liu Feixue and I tentatively agreed on this plan.
After spending two days at the Heavenly Sword Sect, the Jianmu tree's erosion of the world had reached its final stage.
A thousand miles away from the Heavenly Sword Sect, a group of people with different temperaments gathered in an open space.
This group included men and women, young and old, monks and Taoists, some in dragon robes and others in flowing veils.
Among them, a man with bright, clear eyes and a handsome face, dressed in a black dragon robe, spoke first.
"Gentlemen, now that we're here, I presume we've all received the same information. What should we do now? Do you have any suggestions?"
A figure wrapped in a white cloth on one side, whose gender was indistinguishable, had a shrill voice.
"Yue Zheng, do you think this is your court assembly? Why are you still putting on this show? Doesn't your Yue family pride itself on its power and prestige throughout the world? Why don't you just go and kill those people?"
Yue Zheng did not react strongly. "The Wind and Sand Sect has been living on the frontier for a long time, and their vision is getting smaller and smaller. They are sneaking around all day without knowing anything."
This matter is no longer just a matter for my royal family. In fact, if my royal family were to submit, we would have a much greater bargaining chip than you.
At least the royal family can govern the world and help the other side better manage it, so what use are you all?
After he said that, everyone fell silent.
The dozen or so people present were longtime rivals, but their unprecedented gathering here was due to the immense crisis they were facing.
"In my opinion, we should go to the Heavenly Sword Sect and take a look. Didn't the guardian spirit beast point us in the right direction?"
"No, no, what if it's a trap? Wouldn't we just be walking into a snare for nothing?"
The man in the dragon robe, Yue Zheng, paid no attention to the argument and instead looked at an old monk.
"What does Master Xuming think? Your temple rarely sets foot in the secular world, so you must have some plans for this."
The old monk chanted Buddhist mantras, "Benefactor Yue, the monks of our temple should go and pay their respects, so as to avoid committing more killing."
Yue Zheng's expression changed. "Master, do you mean there's absolutely no hope of resistance?"
Wuyin Temple is a great temple with a history of thousands of years, and it is full of masters with all kinds of skills.
Now that the other side is ready to surrender, what's the point of playing anymore?
Xu Ming shook his head. “Without cause, there is no effect. Fortune and misfortune have no gate; they are summoned by oneself. Benefactor Yue, please think it over.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Yue Zheng's expression turned ugly, and the others also had strange looks on their faces.
Wuyin Temple is not a sect; most of its members are newcomers who came later, so in terms of historical foundation, it is far inferior.
The woman who had been observing coldly from the treetop turned and left without a word, her direction likely being towards the Heavenly Sword Sect.
Immediately afterwards, a Taoist priest carrying a sword followed, and Xu Ming chanted a Buddhist prayer before turning and leaving as well.
"That bitch ran fast. My Seven Paths of the Holy Gate have to catch up, or we'll be in big trouble."
"They cultivate the path of desirelessness yet compassion, which is their biggest bargaining chip. Your Demonic Sect is probably in trouble this time."
The representatives of the Demonic Sect and the two members of the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect started arguing.
A few moments later, the entire open space was cleared out.
Only Yue Zheng remained, his face somewhat grim, standing still as he looked up at the vast continent faintly visible in the sky.
A chilling sense of oppression washed over us like a tidal wave.
The gap in strength was too huge, and everyone was actually prepared for it.
