“Miss Ruan, 30% of the mineral resources is probably too much. I can promise you 10% of the resources.”
Sikong Jian said, "One-tenth of the resources is already quite a lot; it's enough to establish a new power."
"I only have this one condition. If Sect Master Sikong doesn't agree, then there's nothing more to discuss." Ruan Xiyan's eyes were firm.
As the saying goes, it's easy to build up power, but difficult to maintain it.
The future development and maintenance of the sect depend on resources, so she needs to consider the future of the Illusionary Hidden Sect and make plans in advance.
If she helps the Tianyu Sect acquire the mineral resources, 30% of those resources will allow the Huanyin Sect to make steady progress.
At least for the time being, we won't have to worry about resources anymore.
"Miss Ruan, can't we discuss this further? I can give you 20% of the resources," Sikong Jian conceded.
Ruan Xiyan shook her head, "Thirty percent, not even one percent less."
"Sect Master Sikong, this is a mutually beneficial thing. If Tianyu Sect loses in this competition, let alone the mineral resources, it may not even be able to keep its current power and status."
"With the competition over, your Tianyu Sect is already doing well to get 70% of the resources. If you are too greedy, you may end up with nothing."
"I can assure Sect Master Sikong that I will do everything in my power to help Tianyu Sect break into the top five in this competition."
"Miss Ruan is truly a master negotiator." Sikong Jian smiled wryly; even he was being persuaded by her.
Moreover, with the lure of these 30% mineral resources, Ruan Xiyan can focus more wholeheartedly on winning the competition.
Sikong Jian hardened his heart and said, "Fine, I promise you. Thirty percent. If Miss Ruan can get Tianyu Sect into the top five, thirty percent of the mineral resources will be given to Miss Ruan."
Ruan Xiyan smiled slightly, "Sect Master Sikong, then I wish us a pleasant cooperation."
"Miss Ruan, please feel free to stay at Tianyu Sect during your stay," Sikong Jian said.
Yu Qiqi looked at Sikong Jian and said, "We want to live with Sister Yan."
Sikong Jian thought for a moment and then made an exception and said, "Alright, I will arrange a separate place for you all as an apology for the grievances you suffered at my Tianyu Sect."
Sikong Jian personally led Ruan Xiyan and the others to a courtyard, and then left.
Seeing Sikong Jian leave, Yu Qiqi immediately pulled Ruan Xiyan to sit down on a chair.
"Sister Yan, should we really help them participate in the competition?"
"Don't rush, let me finish," Ruan Xiyan said. "The reason I arrived at Tianyu Sect later than you is because of the matter of Huanyin Sect."
"The Illusionary Hidden Sect?" Luo Wanyin asked, puzzled.
"Due to some coincidences, I casually established the Illusionary Concealment Sect. From now on, the Illusionary Concealment Sect will be the foundation for our survival in the cultivation continent."
"Sister Yan, do you mean that the Illusionary Hidden Sect is a force you established?" Lin Muze asked excitedly.
"You're wrong. It's not my power, it's our power." Ruan Xiyan smiled.
"Yes, yes, yes, our power." Lin Muze danced with joy. "Sister Yan, can I become an elder? I've never been an elder before, I don't know what it's like to be one."
“Okay,” Ruan Xiyan replied with a smile.
"Long live Sister Yan!"
"Sister Yan, you are amazing! You managed to establish our sect so quickly."
Luo Wanyin looked at Ruan Xiyan and said, "Xiyan, it must be very difficult to establish a sect, especially on this cultivation continent."
"So, Xi Yan, you agreed to help Tian Yu Sect and use 30% of the mineral resources to develop the Illusionary Hidden Sect in order to accumulate cultivation resources for the Illusionary Hidden Sect."
Ruan Xiyan nodded.
"Sister Yan, why don't we choose other mid-tier forces to participate in the competition? Maybe we can win more easily then," Yu Qiqi asked, tilting her head in confusion.
During her stay at the Tianyu Sect, she had an extremely poor impression of the sect.
Perhaps it's not just the Tianyu Sect that's like this; most forces actually look down on people from the secular continent from the bottom of their hearts.
For the first time, she felt so frustrated and powerless.
But this only strengthened her resolve to become stronger. Just like Sister Yan, as long as you have the strength, you will have the right to negotiate wherever you go.
“If we go to other forces, we might not be able to obtain 30% of the mineral resources,” Ruan Xiyan explained slowly.
"Tianyu Sect had no other choice but to take a desperate gamble, which is why they agreed to give us 30% of the mineral resources."
After all, 30% of the mineral resources is no small amount, and no one would be willing to hand over such a lucrative opportunity to others.
Yu Qiqi nodded, seemingly understanding but not quite.
As expected, she's still better suited to wielding her iron hammer and beating people up.
Lin Muze looked at Yu Qiqi from the side and smiled, "Can you understand?"
Yu Qiqi snorted lightly, "It's none of your business whether I can understand it or not."
"With your skills, you'd be sold out without even realizing it on the dangerous cultivation continent, and might even be helping the seller count the money."
"Lin Muze, what do you mean? Do you think I'm that stupid? Anyway, I'll stick with Sister Yan. She definitely won't sell me out."
"Isn't that right, Sister Yan?" Yu Qiqi looked at Ruan Xiyan with a sweet smile.
Seeing their delighted expressions, Ruan Xiyan couldn't help but smile as well. "Yes, Qiqi is so cute and lovable, I can't bear to sell her."
"Sister Yan, to celebrate our reunion on the cultivation continent today, and for our Illusionary Hidden Sect, let's go out for a good meal to celebrate," Yu Qiqi suggested.
"I think it's okay."
"Then what are we waiting for? Let's go." Lin Muze was the first to stand up.
"The food at Tianyu Sect isn't very good, but in the nearest city under Tianyu Sect's jurisdiction, there's a restaurant that serves excellent food."
"Sister Yan, you've just arrived here, so you probably haven't eaten here yet. Why don't we go there to eat today?"
Lin Muze turned his head to look at Ruan Xiyan as he walked.
"I'm fine with anything, I'll listen to you." Ruan Xiyan and Jun Yu walked hand in hand at the very back.
Meanwhile, Lin Muze and his two companions were laughing and joking in front of them.
Inside the restaurant.
Lin Muze booked a private room on the third floor and ordered the waiter to bring up all the restaurant's specialties.
The dishes were brought in one after another. "Please enjoy your meal, gentlemen," the waiter said before closing the door and leaving.
"Master, Master, I want to eat too." Xuan Guang's voice came from the space.
Ruan Xiyan raised her hand and released them from the space, so that they could have a meal and also get some fresh air, so they wouldn't feel suffocated.
Although the Wind Spirit Space is wonderful, being an independent space and world, it is ultimately different from the real world outside.
