Chapter 827 - 833: Quiet
But he had forgotten, at the time when those disciples reported the matter, his ambiguous attitude—even the suggestive words that tempted them to act secretly.
It was only because the Li family didn’t want to make a big fuss; otherwise, this Sect Leader might have been taken to Profound Ice State to work as a miner.
Meanwhile, such occurrences were taking place throughout Wanxian Province.
Some, like this Sect Leader, reluctantly paid the compensation in Spirit Stones, despite being unwilling, but there were forces that refused to do so, even wanting to attack the Li family cultivators who came to collect the stones.
Fortunately, when they undertook this task, Li Mingzi had warned them to be extremely careful, always ready to act at a moment’s notice.
After all, there are always some who take risks, and the Golden Core cultivators cultivated by the Li family cannot die under such circumstances.
For those forces unwilling to submit, the Li family abandoned their previously mild approach, sent a large number of cultivators to break through sect defenses, and forcefully collected the debt, taking away every cultivator of the entire force!
The already unstable Wanxian Province became even more panic-stricken and resentful with the Li family’s actions, prompting a large number of Loose Cultivators to flee elsewhere, and even some vassals considered relocation.
But the Li family did not stop their collection efforts because of this!
Loose Cultivators come and go and would return in a few years for the sake of profit; after all, they can buy cheap Spiritual Objects in Wanxian Province, where there are several suitable Territories for Qi Cultivation, Foundation Establishment, Golden Core cultivation, and resource acquisition.
