Chapter 281 You have to spend money, you have to spend money, you have to spend money!
The general at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage, with a square face and exuding a murderous aura, held a crescent-shaped sword in his hand and sneered at the young man in front of him.
"You are the ancient cultivator who attacked my Dayu Expeditionary Force in recent days!"
The young man in the Jindan stage who was sitting on the treetop drinking tea raised his eyebrows slightly, "Yes, so what?"
"Hmph - you bold thief! I will capture you today!"
The general at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage opened his eyes wide with anger, wielded the crescent-shaped sword in his hand, soared into the air, and stabbed the young man's neck with the sword.
The young man smiled calmly and pointed his finger, "You are already dead."
There was no sign of any fluctuation of spiritual energy, but the general at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage widened his eyes, his spiritual energy surged, and he fell on the spot. He raised his trembling hand and pointed at the young man. After he looked at him for a long time, his head tilted and he was dead.
The young man continued drinking his tea as if he had done something boring, and said calmly, "From today on, you are also a member of my ancient army."
The dead general's limbs trembled, and he staggered to his feet, kneeling on one knee, his eyes empty and lifeless.
"yes--"
The monks watching around applauded.
Li Yanmo, who was drinking tea, twitched his lips slightly, "Everyone, do we really need to do this every time?"
The general, who looked like a zombie with dull eyes, suddenly stood up and said, "Mr. Li, the sense of ceremony is very important!"
Leng Ningshuang on the side also shouted, "That's right, haven't you reduced the steps to you killing the opponent instantly?"
Li Yanmo rolled his eyes.
During this period, he [instantly killed] many Dayu monks, and all the Dayu monks who were [instantly killed] by him were transformed into ancient monks. These transformed ancient monks took advantage of their positions to sneak into the Dayu barracks quietly and transformed more Dayu monks into ancient monks.
There were some diligent ones who performed a show of brotherly love on the spot and then had a fight.
There are also lazy ones.
[You have been assimilated by me into an ancient monk]
[Oh, okay, I'll go and assimilate others right now]
It was not Li Yanmo's idea that the Dayu monks were assimilated into ancient monks. It was a drama arranged by these Dayu monks themselves.
This was also approved by the general at the level of God Transformation, and another scene was added.
The god-transforming general keenly discovered that his men had been assimilated, and tracked them secretly, but he didn't know that this was a strategy of the person behind the scenes to lure the enemy into deep. Finally, after a series of battles, he met Li Yanmo, the mastermind behind the scenes.
Just when he was about to fight to the death, he was killed instantly.
This script was agreed upon by many people, but there was considerable controversy over who would be the person to be killed instantly. The six people in the Spirit Transformation Stage who came to help all wanted to be the person to be killed instantly.
Anyone who is sent out to do important things doesn't think his face is useful.
After embarrassing yourself, you can pretend to be an ancient monk and move around freely. Isn't that more interesting than staying in a tent and being in a daze?
But only one can get out, so now those few Jindan monks are still fighting.
Li Yanmo felt that killing a Jindan cultivator in seconds was a bit too much. Spirit stones had been overflowing during this period. Although it still could not threaten the astronomical debt of Taixu Sect, it was not a big deal. If he could kill a Jindan cultivator in seconds, his prestige would definitely be high.
But the ancient cultivators have expanded to this extent, and he can no longer stop them, so Li Yanmo hopes that these people can fight for a little longer.
However, despite fighting, these Dayu monks did not forget their main business. Some created momentum, some spread rumors, and some investigated intelligence. The division of labor was quite clear. Leng Ningshuang was the one responsible for putting pressure on Chu Lan, so Li Yanmo did not need to worry about it.
So Li Yanmo's mind turned to other things.
That is the cost of these [Ancient Monks] in front of us.
These generals are working for him now, so Li Yanmo can't let these soldiers who are sacrificing their lives and blood for the people work in vain.
It costs money.
These generals were killed by him in seconds, in seconds! How much of an injury would this be? This is a work injury.
It costs money.
These generals have been branded with the stigma of being killed instantly by people of a higher rank, and their reputations have been damaged. They can't just turn a blind eye to this.
It costs money.
These generals...playing the role of the ancient monks they hate the most, how much trauma must this cause to their spirits?
Li Yanmo, who was writing in the account book, paused, turned his head to look at the laughing Dayu generals outside the window, squeezed out a few tears from the corners of his eyes, and wrote down a heavy amount of mental damages.
Look at these generals of Dayu, they are all dumbfounded. It is unreasonable not to pay compensation for mental damage.
In addition, it delayed work time and occupied Dayu’s public resources, etc…
Li Yanmo wrote a long list of articles and felt that there was still room for improvement, so he asked Leng Ningshuang for her opinion, "How much do you think the fine should be for causing damage to Dayu's military prestige and spreading rumors about the revival of ancient cultivators?"
Leng Ningshuang's expression gradually became subtle when she heard this, "Brother Li, are you going to force the Minister of Revenue to hang himself?"
"What are you talking about? I am just doing my job to help the Minister of Revenue. If all merchants in the world were honest and did not evade taxes, why would we need tax officials?"
Li Yanmo's words were so righteous that Leng Ningshuang was speechless and could only change the subject, "Then don't you want to think about the Haoqi Sect and the other first-class sects? I don't know where the Haoqi Sect got the news from, but they knew that Yuanluo Sect was going to cooperate with Tianxu Tower. Judging from their appearance, I'm afraid they are planning to join forces to trick Yuanluo Sect."
"Your disciple has spent a lot of spirit stones on Yuanluo Sect. It seems that he intends to use the power of Yuanluo Sect, the local snake, to build Tianxu Tower in Zhuozhou under the pretext of a middleman merchant group. In the end, he will take away the building and the resources invested by Yuanluo Sect by taking advantage of Dayu's expedition to Zhuozhou."
"But the premise of this plan is to give Yuanluo Clan enough time to operate the middleman group and store resources."
"Haoqi Sect and other first-rate sects are obviously planning to set the fire directly on Yuanluo Sect. Even if Dayu knew that Yuanluo Sect was still useful, he would have no choice but to send troops. Your disciple's original plan would probably fail directly, and it would be difficult to recover the investment."
"...It makes me sad to hear that. It's okay. I will tell the second brother not to care about that little bit of money." Li Yanmo's mouth corners suddenly raised upwards, but he quickly suppressed them.
Good things are good things, but how can a master laugh when his apprentice’s business goes bankrupt?
Li Yanmo has always kept his public and private affairs separate.
Not only did he engage in purchasing on behalf of others in Zhuozhou, but he also wanted to get Tianxu Tower and the entire Zhuozhou purchasing business for free. However, Shen Ziqing succeeded in building a cave house in every state in the world, which brought him astronomical debts. This is a great achievement!
His second apprentice is a talented person and is still young, so it is normal for him to make some small mistakes.
…
Ganzhou, Tianxu Tower.
Shen Ziqing was drinking tea leisurely with Feng Shouyun.
“Mr. Shen, I never thought that you would take the initiative to destroy your own plan. I admire your courage,” Feng Shouyun said with emotion as he put down the cup.
Shen Ziqing shook the cup in his hand, "My master always said that we should have a long-term vision. It is indeed a pity to purchase on behalf of one Tianxu Tower and one Zhongzhou. But if we can make those first-class sects suspicious of each other and make the Taoist sect feel guilty, then we can get the greatest benefit at the lowest cost."
"After I have made up my mind, the resistance to the sect registration will probably be much smaller."
