172 Opportunity Two
After saying all this, he seemed to have become much more powerful, and then a hint of joy appeared on his face. "I invested a lot back then, hoping that I could get an official position in the future so that we could have a place to live."
Little did they know, compared to these powerful families, our resources were like the difference between rice bran and gourmet food. In their eyes, we were like knives in their hands; status makes people's hearts easily change.
Of course, I understand her difficulties. Let it be as it is now. Since you have all decided this way, and besides having a large and diverse workforce and complex construction projects, we don't really have much ability in terms of general information.
It is truly a joyous occasion that you sisters are able to take up positions in Wanzhou. Yang Long and Yang Hu will follow behind you and ensure that Lord He's arrangements are carried out properly.
If things go well, our group will have a stable place to stay and won't have to wander around. Yang Long and Yang Hu, you two should focus on developing yourselves in Wanzhou. So many people have just been eliminated here.
It seems that Lord He will need many people. You will also have your own opportunities for development.
As for Qingxuan, on the surface, Young Master Chi seems to be pursuing her and is captivated by her beauty. However, the Chi family branch has now sided with the Yuan family, so things are not that simple. The Chi family has the intention of unifying the Caiyi Sect.
It's probably not that simple. Unifying the Caiyi Sect to gain more status for the Caiyi Sect is more about gaining more leverage for the Chi family's own advancement.
The changes in this world are never up to us.
Regarding the matter of the Chi family's young master, Qingxuan, you handle it as you see fit. I support all your decisions. The same goes for everyone else; you are the next leaders of this group, and your decisions are our decisions.
Yang Long and Yang Hu listened with their expressions unchanged, while Shang Qingxuan's complexion returned to normal, and she nodded slightly. The Shi sisters, however, looked surprised.
After Elder Shi finished speaking, he added, "Although our Caiyi Sect is currently divided into several branches, the bottom level is not affected. We welcome all comers, which is both our advantage and our disadvantage."
However, when our ancestors started this business, they didn't consider so many things. But they were quick to get information. I wonder if Lord He is lacking in the ability to integrate this information.
"After gathering more information about Lord He in the next few days, if possible, I'll hand him over to you. This old man of mine, let's see if Lord He would be willing to take me in as his steward."
Old Master Shi's serious expression moved the Shi sisters and the other three slightly.
Shang Qingxuan said, "Elder Shi, there's no need to blame yourself. Human affairs are inherently unpredictable. Different positions lead to different choices, which is beyond the control of outsiders."
Old Shi shook his head and said, "Since we have chosen to develop in Wanzhou, if we don't join Lord He now, it will be useless for me to join him when his army is strong and well-equipped!"
I'm getting old, and I've become hesitant and timid, causing you all a lot of trouble. Now that you've joined Lord He, if he's willing to take you in, it will open up more career paths for you in the future.
Seeing that Elder Shi had made his decision, the others stopped trying to dissuade him. The Shi sisters looked at their elder brothers, Yang Long and Yang Hu, and said, "We will be relying on you two brothers in the future."
Yang Long and Yang Hu smiled slightly and said, "You two are too kind. It's nothing."
Shang Qingxuan said, "I'll join too. That way, with the few of us working together, we won't be underestimated. As for the other positions, we can talk about that later."
The Shi sisters, beaming, crossed their arms and said, "Thank you, Sister Qingxuan."
Shi Feixuan looked at the sky and said, "Let's get moving too. We gathered the craftspeople who came to seek refuge during the day; they're very familiar with this place. Let them lead the way and take care of the matters the master has assigned us."
The group nodded, immediately summoned people, and quickly set off towards the participating families.
He Chen traveled a thousand miles in a single step, arriving at a sparsely populated place. His divine sense quickly expanded, and he heard birds chirping, mice digging holes, rabbits burrowing, snakes foraging for food, and grass and trees breathing.
The things around me came into view quickly, as if they were right in front of me.
Extending far into the distance, a line of six carriages moved at a leisurely pace. The carriages were exceptionally luxurious on the outside, inlaid with gold and jade, but the interiors were rather unsightly.
Inside a carriage, a handsome young man, looking like a fresh-faced youth, was attentively serving a beautiful woman. The woman nodded in satisfaction.
The handsome young man immediately said, "Elder, we'll be arriving in Wanzhou soon. Wanzhou is incredibly prosperous. Once we get there, I'll arrange even more for you."
The beautiful elder nodded and said, "Little Huang, you're quite good. Once we deal with that He brat, your Huang family will still be the representative of Wanzhou."
Your previous petty actions have been observed by you. Don't be too attached to worldly possessions; they will all eventually turn to dust. Strive to cultivate yourself and achieve immortality—that is the true path.
"Little Huang must be the eldest son of the Huang family," he immediately nodded, "Yes, Elder is right. I will definitely cultivate diligently and serve Elder Lan well."
The beautiful Elder Lan nodded slightly, and Little Yellow immediately came up behind her and began to gently massage her shoulders, carefully attending to her needs.
From the three carriages behind, voices whispered, "Little Chai, don't worry. Anyone who dares to mess with our Wan Nian Sect is just asking for trouble. We'll avenge you in a moment."
But as you know, we wouldn't have come out if it weren't for you, wasting a lot of our cultivation time. We cultivators prioritize longevity; these mortal weeds are replaced every few decades.
The young master of the Chai family nodded in agreement, his aura exceptionally powerful, clearly indicating his considerable talent. "We'll arrive soon," he said. "Elder Feng is right, but he's still family. This man's ruthlessness is a great scourge to Wanzhou."
Elder Feng's intervention this time will surely ensure his soul is never reborn. However, this ant-like being in the human realm must have cultivated a rather impressive body. Congratulations to Elder Feng for acquiring a good puppet ahead of time!
Elder Feng smiled but remained silent.
Young Master Chai immediately added, "My family has prepared some aged medicinal herbs, and we've also arranged for some beautiful women to serve Elder Feng. These are merely common beauties, of course, not comparable to the celestial maidens of our sect. I hope Elder Feng won't find them lacking."
Elder Feng smiled, his eyes narrowing. "Not bad, not bad, Young Master Chai is quite something; he has a bright future ahead of him."
Young Master Chai immediately adopted a humble tone, but inwardly he was filled with helplessness, 'If it weren't for my talent, would the Ten Thousand Year Sect even care about me?'
The Wan Nian Sect, which creates puppets, is incredibly cruel, almost like a demonic sect. On the surface, they only create enemies, but the criteria for creating enemies are set by the Wan Nian Sect itself.
