Chapter 1178 - 334: The Four Major Realms of the Immortal Sect!
I can’t breathe anymore.
"Five million? I managed to get one million, and that already took me so long. By the time I gather five million, it could be ages away. That’s just a number I can’t even imagine!"
"Unless I flip the Celestial Craft Workshop over, otherwise by the time I collect five million, I’d probably be off on a pilgrimage!"
Wang Haoran: "???"
That’s too harsh!
They say back in the day, Sun the Monkey was pitifully trapped under the Five Finger Mountain. Now they want him to gather money while we get trapped under it ourselves?
This is five million; is that even humanly possible?!
All previous abilities combined aren’t even half of this amount! Do they really think money isn’t money?!
If you value Tang Monk’s flesh at the price of gold, it’s still not enough; it’s already savage... No, it’s an unimaginable number!
The citizens of Xufu Town earn about three taels of silver per month. In the busy season, that’s ten taels of silver; in the off-season, about two taels of silver. That’s already a decent income.
But here we need five million. If you calculate simply, based on the average yearly income of fifty silver for Xufu Town citizens, one would need a million years to earn it without rest!
Seriously, isn’t a hundred years sad enough? Do we have to borrow 9,999,900 years from the elderly?
"Weeping over finances."
While other disciples are celebrating with joy, Yuchi silently cried. Really, this kind of money far exceeds current capabilities; it’s just like what was anticipated. After this phase, it’ll be a long period of stagnation.
Ascension Gate needs to start supplementing many other structures, to gradually increase its numbers. Relying only on the four demon heads still in mutual training, relying only on Yuan’Er and Jiunuan in the Immortal Robe Pavilion, is far from achieving such tasks; it’s necessary to start recruiting to earn money.
"I used to feel like I didn’t lack money, but as soon as I start earning, it increasingly feels like I lack money. What’s this bizarre logic?"
"Is this my unfulfilled desire?"
"No way, I’m quite simple-minded."
Yuchi sobbed, tears streaming down his old face. The silver he just got hasn’t even warmed up. Although Ascension Gate’s upgrade in capability satisfied him greatly, the amount of money spent is too exaggerated.
All kidney, relying on selling kidneys, is far from enough.
"Look, Sect Leader Senior Brother is moved to tears himself!"
Xu Feiling excitedly spoke to other senior and junior sisters.
"Yes! Sect Leader Senior Brother cried!"
"Tears welling up, Sect Leader Senior Brother is truly a person of passion!"
"Sect Leader Senior Brother, it’s okay, we’re here for you!"
"Indeed, go ahead and cry. Men crying isn’t a crime."
"This isn’t just your tears; we all care about you, Sect Leader Senior Brother!"
"Sect Leader Senior Brother is undeniably the best!"
The disciples gathered around, encircling on the left and right, gazing at Yuchi’s expression filled with emotion.
And then, starting with who knows whom, someone began to softly sob.
And soon, tears were flowing all around Ascension Gate.
I cry out of poverty, but what are you crying about? ... Yuchi wiped his sweat, the disciples bowed their heads, tears trickling down, looking as if they’d suffered great grievances.
"Heartache for Sect Leader Senior Brother!"
Has Ascension Gate become this fearsome? Sect Leader Senior Brother must be thinking of ways to make money, so we must work hard too. When our strength is enough, we must go out and contribute to Ascension Gate, not letting Sect Leader Senior Brother’s long-time nurturing go to waste!
Then, with no clear start, their expressions suddenly became incredibly serious.
A group of disciples wiping their tears, first heading back to cultivate and assess the situation!
Then there’s Zong Qianqun too, who now doesn’t know what to say to express her inner feelings. Her mind is full of the determination to cultivate properly!
However, at this moment, Yuchi called her over.
"Qianqun, this pot of peach blossoms is for you."
Yuchi handed the pot of peach blossoms brought from the State Capital to Zong Qianqun, and when Zong Qianqun was surprised, he scratched his head and smiled, saying:
"I promised you before, and have kept an eye out for peach blossoms and such. But while those things are easy to find, it’s tough for peach blossoms to bloom in the cold winter."
"Now, don’t mind that this peach blossom is small; with care in the sect, it’ll definitely grow into a large peach blossom tree in the future, and Ascension Gate will be even more beautiful then."
He actually remembered?!
Zong Qianqun’s eyes brimmed with affection, with leftover tears at the corners.
Even she had forgotten about this, yet Yuchi brought these peach blossoms!
She didn’t say a word as she accepted the peach blossoms, then walked up to Yuchi, when smiling, opened her arms, and hugged him tightly, resting her cheek against his chest, filled with warmth in her words: "Sect Leader Senior Brother, I really like it!"
