Qin Yuan naturally heard Chen Tianwen's words, so he came over to hear the elders' attitudes.
When Qin Yuan saw Chen Tianwen looking at him, he gave Chen Tianwen a barely perceptible nod.
Chen Tianwen considered his words for a moment before speaking:
"Well, the matter I asked you to do is actually for your Miss Zhiruo..."
Before Chen Tianwen could finish speaking, the white-haired elder interrupted him, saying:
"Young Master Chen, rest assured, we have watched Zhiruo grow up since she was a child, so naturally we will not allow Zhiruo to be forced by the sect leader to do anything she does against her will. Qin Yuan has already given us instructions, and we know what to say when we return."
Chen Tianwen secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He was wondering how to tactfully express his request, but he didn't expect the elders of the Xianlan Sect to be so tactful, which saved him a lot of trouble.
Chen Tianwen glanced at the other elders of the Xianlan Sect, who all wore expressions that said, "We all understand," which put Chen Tianwen at ease.
After explaining the matter, Chen Tianwen and Qin Zhiruo found a quiet place, sat cross-legged, and quietly waited for the exit of the secret realm to open.
These were some rogue cultivators, Great Luo Golden Immortals, who came to Chen Tianwen's side with a reserved attitude. Chen Tianwen smiled, not expecting that his reputation had grown so great that these Great Luo Golden Immortals were so afraid of him.
Seeing the smile on Chen Tianwen's face, the Great Luo Golden Immortals finally spoke:
"Young Master Chen, we are all willing to join Bu Huo City and serve you!"
Chen Tianwen naturally wouldn't refuse those who sought refuge with him, and said to them:
"I, Chen, naturally welcome everyone to join me. However, you must first swear an oath to Heaven, promising that you will not have any disloyalty within my Bu Huo City for a hundred years. After a hundred years, you can then decide whether to continue to serve me!"
When these people heard Chen Tianwen ask them to make a Heavenly Oath, they all looked hesitant. After all, Chen Tianwen had a reputation for killing, and if they joined Bu Huo City and suddenly found that they had not obtained what they needed, they would be bound by the Heavenly Oath and would not be able to go back on their word.
However, upon hearing Chen Tianwen's subsequent words, they all felt relieved. A hundred years was a fleeting moment for these Great Luo Golden Immortals, and they didn't care about the constraints of a hundred years.
Furthermore, if they find themselves unsuitable for Bu Huo City a hundred years later, they can choose to leave. Therefore, these rogue cultivators have abandoned their oaths to the Heavenly Dao and declared their allegiance to Bu Huo City.
Chen Tianwen would not casually recruit his subordinates, because if these people were not of good character and temperament, Chen Tianwen was afraid that they would ruin his reputation!
That's why this century-long agreement came about, a century-long period of observation, so that Chen Tianwen could truly know what kind of people these were!
Chen Tianwen wasn't afraid of these people at all. He thought they would be willing to leave him after a hundred years. After all, he provided them with immortal pills and artifacts every day and could also guide them in cultivating immortal techniques. Unless these people were mentally unstable, they wouldn't be willing to leave.
Seeing that these people had all made oaths to Heaven, he nodded and said:
"Now that you have joined Bu Huo City, after you leave the secret realm, go back and pack your families, and come to Bu Huo City to find me within five days."
The rogue cultivators all nodded, and one of them, mustering his courage, asked Chen Tian a question:
"Young Master Chen, may we ask for your help in refining elixirs and magical artifacts?"
Upon hearing this man's words, Chen Tianwen burst into laughter.
Chen Tianwen's loud laughter made the expressions of these rogue cultivators extremely unnatural. They thought that their words had offended Chen Tianwen, and they all became somewhat guilty.
After all, he has only just joined Bu Huo City and has not yet made any contributions, so it is really unreasonable for him to make demands first.
Chen Tianwen's laughter attracted everyone's attention. Seeing that everyone was watching him, Chen Tianwen stopped laughing and said in a loud voice:
"Whether you are willing to join Bu Huo City or not, I, Chen Tianwen, will help you refine them. However, if you are not from Bu Huo City, you will need to provide your own pill formula and weapon formula. This period lasts for two months, and you will not be accepted after that!"
Everyone present was excited when they heard Chen Tianwen's words. They hadn't expected Chen Tianwen to be so generous.
You should know that when you ask those alchemists and artifact makers for help, you not only have to prepare a large amount of commission, but you also have to say all sorts of nice things. Even then, if the other party is in a bad mood, they will simply refuse.
So these people had gotten used to the arrogant attitude of the alchemists and artifact makers, and they were still a little unaccustomed to Chen Tianwen's generous approach!
Especially for these independent cultivators, being rejected is commonplace because they have no background. This is also why these independent cultivators are not as strong as those disciples of sects.
Upon hearing Chen Tianwen's promise, these people all admired his magnanimity.
Originally, Chen Tianwen slaughtered a large number of Golden Immortals from the Blackwater Sect and the Floating Cloud Sect, leaving behind the mark of the God of Slaughter for them. However, today, many people's views on Chen Tianwen have changed drastically.
Even some of the rogue cultivators who originally didn't want to join Bu Huo City became interested after hearing what Chen Tianwen said!
Chen Tianwen wasn't just idly pretending to be a good person.
The truth is, Chen Tianwen's reputation for intimidation has spread far and wide, so he wants to use this opportunity to enhance his prestige, which will be of great benefit to him in building his own power in the future!
After everyone had left, Qin Zhiruo gently punched Chen Tianwen with her small fist and whispered to him:
"You're helping so many people refine elixirs and magical artifacts, aren't you stupid? Aren't you afraid of exhausting yourself!"
Chen Tianwen smiled and shook his head, saying:
"I'm not afraid of getting tired. Once I've established my power, I'll accompany you back to the Immortal Orchid Sect and have your father cancel the original engagement!"
Hearing Chen Tianwen's words, Qin Zhiruo felt a warmth in her heart and leaned happily on Chen Tianwen's shoulder.
This was also the result of Chen Tianwen's reflections throughout the year.
Qin Yuan's method was merely a delaying tactic. If he wanted to completely resolve the issue, he would have to make a trip to the Xianlan Sect.
After all, what father would make things difficult for his daughter for no reason, especially since she is the only daughter of this generation? Surely, the sect leader of Xianlan Sect, Qin Zhiruo's father, must have some unspeakable difficulties!
Chen Tianwen gently patted Qin Zhiruo's back, which made Qin Zhiruo feel more at ease.
Seeing Qin Zhiruo's obedient appearance, Chen Tianwen thought to himself:
Although I may not be able to give you a formal title, I will never let you suffer any injustice!
After waiting for several days at the exit of the secret realm, the exit finally slowly opened.
Chen Tianwen led everyone into the energy vortex at the exit and left the secret realm!
