Chapter 573: ill-intentions
~~
Ye chen thought about it. He had so many subordinates with Astral Soul fusions over thirty. On the Tian Yuan continent, they could eat the meat of spirit beasts of all levels and buy all kinds of spirit herbs. As long as he could train some of them to the spirit sea or mysterious God level, they could earn their own money!
They would use the money they earned to extradite more people. After those people came over, they would be able to make money again after a period of training. It would soon form a virtuous cycle!
Lingyu, I am prepared to nurture them until they can form their own groups to enter the small Tian Yuan world and earn money! Ye chen said to Ling Yu, feeling a little excited about this idea.
"Big brother ye chen, if there's anything you can use me for, just let me know. My territory provides a batch of Tianyu Saint fruits every few months!" Ling Yu said without hesitation. This was the time when ye chen needed his help the most. If he did not help now, it would be difficult to find similar opportunities in the future.
I won't take your Tianyu Saint fruit for free. Ye chen said. However, he was too short of money. No matter how much money he had, he still felt that it was not enough.
"Don't say that, big brother ye chen. I'll provide you with thirty thousand Tianyu Saint fruits every three to six months. This way, my territory can still make a profit. Thirty thousand Tianyu Saint fruits are enough to cultivate many people." Ling Yu did some quick calculations. This was an extremely good emotional investment!
Ye chen thought for a moment and said, " consider those thirty thousand Tianyu Saint fruits a loan from you. Twenty years later, I'll return you twenty times the amount. By then, whether you want to be the head of the Ling family or the Emperor of the Zi Hua divine dynasty, I'll support you!
Hearing ye Chen's words, Ling Yu was extremely excited. In twenty years, ye Chen's power would have expanded to an unimaginable extent. At that time, if they supported him to be the head of the Ling family or the Emperor of the Zi Hua divine dynasty, who would dare to say a word?
"Thank you, big brother ye chen!" Ling Yu said quickly and sincerely. It was just some Tianyu Saint fruits that he had produced. It was definitely worth it to get ye Chen's support.
Five days later, Ling Yu's subordinates brought back the star core from the polar Sea.
Through some connections, Ling Yu transported the star core to Zi Hua divine dynasty's Imperial City and sold it. In total, he sold it for more than 23 billion Shadow Gold. In addition to the 4.5 billion Shadow Gold that the nine people received after becoming the battle Emperor's disciples, it was a total of more than 27 billion Shadow Gold!
The third batch of more than two thousand seven hundred ye clan and Star Hall disciples entered the Tian Yuan continent. Ye chen settled them down in his territory. Although there was no place to live and only some tents were set up, these ye clan and Star Hall disciples were very hardworking in their cultivation.
More than 27 billion Shadow Gold was gone in an instant! Ye chen did not even have the extra money to train these clansmen and subordinates.
He was short of money!
Although the manors built in the territory had a certain continuous income, in the face of huge consumption, it was still not enough. No matter how much money he had, it was all gone in the blink of an eye!
Fortunately, among the 2700 people who were extradited from the third batch, 16 of them had achieved a degree of fusion with their astral souls above 50. After giving them to the battle emperors, they had collected another eight billion Shadow Gold.
Eight billion Shadow Gold was still not enough. Training these people required a huge amount of money every day. In addition, he had to hurry up and extradite more people.
Ye chen encouraged some of the ye family and Star Hall disciples whose Astral Soul Fusion degrees were below fifty to go to various cities to see if they could make a name for themselves. About six hundred of them left Yanyun sacred city and headed to other sacred cities. Some were even preparing to head to the other divine dynasties outside of the Zi Hua divine dynasty.
After this group of people left, ye Chen's pressure was slightly reduced.
During this period, ye Chen's first clone was in charge of various matters while his second clone was constantly focused on cultivation. However, for some unknown reason, ye Chen's cultivation speed could not be compared to the disciples of the ye clan and the star temple who had an Astral Soul Fusion rate of around fifty.
In half a month's time, ye chen had only cultivated to the seventh level of the divine sea. On the other hand, most of the ye clan and star temple disciples who had an Astral Soul Fusion rate of about fifty or so had already entered the divine sea realm under ye Chen's training. There were even quite a few who had reached the tenth level of the divine sea.
However, ye chen was not completely-handed. Every time his cultivation base increased a little, the nine Astra in ye Chen's body would undergo some wonderful changes. For example, a large number of green plants appeared on the wood-type celestial body and a large number of fire-type astral bodies appeared on the fire-type celestial body.
Every star was undergoing a transformation, and every time it did, there would be some geniuses among the disciples of the ye family and Star Hall who had an Astral Soul Fusion degree of more than 50.
As ye Chen's cultivation progressed, the astral Soul Fusion of those who followed ye chen was actually increasing!
Ye Chen's cultivation of the nine Astra skies was very slow, but the disciples seemed to have divine help as their cultivation advanced by leaps and bounds. It was estimated that it would not be long before one or two of these people would become spirit Xuan powerhouses. Once they reached the mysterious God grade, they could apply to the Lord of Qi Yan city to become a noble of the city. Of course, they could also apply to other cities, which would accommodate them.
Ye chen was not in a hurry despite the fact that these disciples were cultivating so quickly. He focused on studying the nine Astra skies and building a solid foundation for it. It would definitely be beneficial to him.
Although they were still short on funds and had to spend a huge amount of money every day, the disciples who had reached the spirit sea level could already enter the small Tian Yuan world to earn money. They would keep a portion of the money they earned for their own use and hand over a portion to ye chen.
Under ye Chen's leadership, everything was developing in an orderly manner. The only thing that ye chen was still concerned about was that ye zhantian, ye changxuan, and the others were still in the eastern continent. Ye chen understood his father and granduncle's state of mind. Before the ye clan had some loyal disciples of the star temple who followed ye chen, they would not come in first.
Two months passed quickly, and Yi Yan and a few people appeared in Yanyun sacred city. The news of Yi Yan's return quickly spread throughout the city.
In the time that Yi Yan and Xu Qing had disappeared, the people in Yanyun sacred city had changed. Most of the nobles had sided with Ling Yu. No one dared to oppose Ling Yu anymore. Ye chen and Ling Yu's forces had already penetrated into all aspects of Yanyun sacred city.
As for Yi Yan and Xu Qing's territories, although they didn't belong to anyone, they were already taken over by Ling Yu.
Yi Yan and a few other people moved into Qi Yan's residence. Qi Yan wasn't very close to Yi Yan, but since Yi Yan had returned, Qi Yan naturally had to receive him. Moreover, there were a few important people who had come with Yi Yan.
As soon as he said that, the entire city started to talk about it.
Yi Yan and Xu Qing's territory had been taken over by Ling Yu. Almost everyone in Yanyun sacred city knew about this. Yi Yan didn't visit Ling Yu when he came back this time. There must be some kind of grudge between the two. Could it be that Yi Yan was here for revenge?
"Did you guys hear? It's said that Yi Yan and Xu Qing's territories were seized by Ling Yu!"
"Lingyu actually has this kind of ability? How did he do it?"
I'm not sure about that. It's said that Yi Yan and Xu Qing borrowed a sum of money from Lingyu. In the end, they didn't have the money to pay it back, so their territory was taken away by Lingyu. In the taverns of Yanyun sacred city, such rumors were spreading everywhere.
In ye Chen's residence, ye chen was arranging for a few subordinates to distribute the spirit sea realm spirit beast meat they had hunted in the small Tian Yuan world to the ye family and star temple disciples when Ling Yu rushed in from outside.
"Big brother ye chen, yiyan's back!" Ling Yu said with a serious expression.
"I know," Ye chen nodded. Right now, the news was spreading all over Yanyun sacred city. How could he not know?
"Those who come are not friendly, and those who come with good intentions will not come." Ling Yu cursed inwardly. Why didn't he kill Yi Yan back then? unfortunately, Yi Yan had the life-saving celestial Qilin back then, so he couldn't catch Yi Yan at all. Ye chen didn't pursue the matter after that. Now that Yi Yan had returned, Ling Yu felt that trouble was coming. He said, " I just received news that Yi Yan wasn't the only one who came to Yanyun sacred city. Yi Yan's master, Emperor Lin, was also here. In addition, there were a few disciplinary elders of my Ling family!
"Emperor Lin and the Ling clan's law enforcement elder?" A cold glint flashed across ye Chen's eyes. He looked at Ling Yu and asked, " will you be in any trouble? "
"Those old fogeys in the Ling family have long found me an eyesore. They've long wanted to drive me out of the Ling family. This time, they sent the law enforcement elder here. They must want to do something to me. At most, I'll just leave the Ling family!" Ling Yu said through gritted teeth. In reality, he really wanted to say,"isn't it just being expelled from the Ling family? I don't care. Those old fogeys of the Ling family will regret it one day!"
"Even if you're expelled from the Ling family, I'll make them kneel and beg you to go back one day!" Ye chen patted Ling Yu's shoulder. Ling Yu had done a lot for him. Ye chen would never let anyone who followed him suffer!
Hearing ye Chen's words, Ling Yu's depressed mood finally lifted. With ye Chen's words, what was there to be afraid of?
"Law enforcement patriarch must ask my uncle if he wants to deal with me. They haven't made a move yet, probably because my uncle hasn't given them a reply. Even Emperor Lin would discuss with my uncle on how to deal with this matter in order to avoid ruining their relationship! I've already sent a letter to my uncle, the snow Emperor." Ling Yu said. Previously, he had just sent two geniuses with astral souls above 50 to his uncle, the snow Emperor. No matter what, his uncle would definitely stand on his side. Hence, although he was afraid of Emperor Lin, he did not feel flustered.
After all, the snow Emperor was not here in person. If the Lin Emperor decided to go all out, it would be troublesome. Although the Lin Emperor could not kill people as he pleased, his status was still high. Even if he injured someone, he would not be punished by the Dao court. It seemed that he had to be prepared in advance!
Ye chen frowned and thought about it. Then, he began to make arrangements. Next, it would depend on Yi Yan's moves!
It wasn't that easy to deal with him and Ling Yu with a single sentence!
