Capítulo 1652: Chapter 1637: Tianyun Hall’s Reward
Inside Mountain God Yi Xun’s mansion, Yi Xun was sitting opposite Ye Zhen, who had stealthily slipped through the underground. In front of them were a few exquisite side dishes and a jar of spirit wine that Yi Xun had treasured for years.
“Your name today has certainly made a splash, but why didn’t you reveal your true identity?
If you had revealed your true identity, considering your status as a Third-class Earl of North Sea, combined with your current strength to withstand Realm King Realm martial artists in the Middle Late Stage, anyone thinking of targeting your Market of Dulong Island would have to think twice, wouldn’t they?”
“To be honest, I’ve thought for a long time but couldn’t figure out what harm would come from you revealing your true identity?” Mountain God Yi Xun said with a face full of puzzlement.
Ye Zhen, however, didn’t rush to answer. He raised his glass slightly, swallowed the aromatic spirit wine in one gulp, and felt a fiery path suddenly burn from his throat down to his stomach. As the alcohol transformed, he opened his mouth and exhaled a gust of fierce wine breath.
Refreshing!
Mountain God Yi Xun’s question was really hard for Ye Zhen to answer.
Mountain God Yi Xun’s statement was correct. The people of Primordial Continent only feared strength, and identity is a form of strength.
If he publicly revealed his true identity, it would be all benefits and no harm.
But the problem is, Ye Zhen currently has too many issues of interests at stake.
Not to mention anything else, as long as Marquis of Yellow Wind Ming Tang lives, Ye Zhen cannot reveal this identity.
As long as Marquis of Yellow Wind Ming Tang isn’t a fool, he would definitely target Ye Zhen’s True Profound Continent. True Profound Continent is an undeveloped new Little World.
Without any experts, no unified Empire or religion, whoever discovers it will want a piece of that juicy meat.
If the identity is revealed, Ming Tang would surely investigate the Market of Dulong Island closely related to Ye Zhen, and if he discovers Xiansheng Water Mansion, it could result in all of Ye Zhen’s associations being thoroughly unearthed.
Then Ye Zhen, completely exposed, would become very dangerous.
“Elder Yi, this matter is really complicated, so it’s better not to ask. Also, this matter still requires your confidentiality.”
As he spoke, Ye Zhen waved his hand, and amid the breath of wine sent out ten barrels of Five-clawed Silver Dragon essence blood, placing them in front of Mountain God Yi Xun.
“So, kid, are you trying to bribe this old man, or is it hush money?” Mountain God Yi Xun joked.
Ye Zhen gave a wry smile, “To bribe you, Elder, I can’t afford that price. Your mouth can’t be sealed by this amount of True Dragon Essence Blood.
Didn’t you distribute the ten barrels of True Dragon Essence Blood I gave you today? Without the backing from you, I wouldn’t have been able to acquire the Five-clawed Silver Dragon essence blood from the battle with Yuann Yinying.
I got such a great benefit from you, Elder, certainly can’t let you suffer a loss.”
Upon hearing this, Mountain God Yi Xun chuckled, “I gave you the benefit, it should be you who gave the old man a huge benefit. Do you know what our Five Immortals Hall’s net income was just this one night?”
“How much?”
“Nine hundred and eighty million High Grade Spiritual Stones, and that’s just the whole number! This amount is almost the total net income of all our Five Immortals Hall’s enterprises for ten years!” Mountain God Yi Xun said.
“Only ten years of net income, it’s not much, right?” Ye Zhen had a carefree face, didn’t seem shocked by the number, last time he acquired wealth worth over twenty million High Grade Spiritual Stones from the Heavenly Temple Branch.
He could easily gather so much wealth alone, so in his eyes, ten billion in net income wasn’t much.
“Not much?” Mountain God Yi Xun’s eyes instantly widened to the extreme.
“Do you understand how an organization’s financial operations and wealth turnover work? Do you know what dropping in ten years of net income means for a large organization?” Mountain God Yi Xun retorted.
“What does it mean?”
“Power!”
“Strength!”
“Influence!”
“Authority!”
“Suddenly gaining ten years of net income allows us Five Immortals Hall to have ample surplus wealth for expansion, ample wealth to acquire more cultivation resources, to expand larger and more territories.
It allows us Five Immortals Hall to increase many experts.
With such a massive support of Spirit Stones, our Five Immortals Hall can at least increase three or even four Dao Realm experts.”
At this point, Mountain God Yi Xun stroked his beard with a smile, “However, those who can be supported to break through to Dao Realm experts are very limited.
At that time, deciding which half-step Dao Realm experts to support for a full breakthrough becomes a matter to discuss. This time, leaning toward our Tianyun Hall is certain.
Hey, maybe, even the old man’s breakthrough to Dao Realm is possible.”
“Please!”
Mountain God Yi Xun raised his cup again, “To be frank, this situation was completely unexpected by the old man. The old man never thought that your kid’s moonlit battle would unexpectedly intervene in the contention among the five halls of our Five Immortals Hall.
Directly boosting our Tianyun Hall’s momentum significantly, not to mention giving Ming Mountain Hall’s Cui Shi a hit.
No wonder, the Venerable said you are….” Saying up to this point, Yi Xun stopped as if someone had pinched his tongue.
“Said I’m what?” Ye Zhen asked suspiciously.
Mountain God Yi Xun glanced at Ye Zhen with a smile and slowly said, “Fortunate General!”
“Fortunate General? Why haven’t I noticed?”
“If you haven’t noticed, that’s just right. Anyway, this time the old man benefited greatly from following you and gained great advantage.”
“Rest assured, within half a month, the old man can suppress all dissenting voices, and station at least one Dao Realm expert openly in the Market of Dulong Island.
Also, we will increase the scale of business in the Market of Dulong Island.
Additionally, our Five Immortals Hall’s land caravans will study a new route that could encompass North Sea County and quickly establish branches there.” Yi Xun said.
Ye Zhen joyfully responded, “Opening branches in North Sea County, that’s a good thing. With your trade route, I think my North Sea County can quickly prosper.”
“More than just prospering!” Mountain God Yi Xun knocked on the table, “Across the Primordial Continent, territories at the County level with branches of our Five Immortals Hall previously only had two.
And North Sea County will be the third one!”
Seeing Ye Zhen with raised hands, Yi Xun quickly said, “Don’t thank the old man! This is considered reciprocal exchange. You’ve given our Tianyun Hall a great advantage, the old man definitely won’t treat you unfairly! Moreover….”
Saying up to this point, Yi Xun suddenly released several Dao Talisman lights, tightly enveloping the entire study room.
“On today’s matter, the Venerable spoke, your contribution as our Tianyun Hall’s Hidden Cultivation Disciple is remarkable, and your contribution to Tianyun Hall today will be recorded in secret archives.
Therefore, the Venerable directly issued a Talisman Summoning, promoting your Hidden Cultivation Disciple status one level, and exchanging for the Five-colored Three Immortals Token.” Yi Xun said.
“Oh!”
Ye Zhen casually responded, having no feeling towards it.
This expression made Mountain God Yi Xun wanted to curse.
Not even moved by the Five-colored Three Immortals Token?
Many disciples of the Five Immortals Hall have been striving for a thousand years without getting even one Five-colored Three Immortals Token. Like Yi Xun, he only holds a Five-colored Four Immortals Token embossed with the Venerable’s aura imprint!
