Chapter 430: Looting the Tang Clan's Treasure Vault and Activating the Ascending Dragon Pillar!
"A million-person evacuation plan?"
Hu Jie paused upon hearing this, but a hint of confusion appeared in his eyes.
"That's right." Jiang Xiu nodded slightly, then explained meaningfully, "Uncle-Master, compared to the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, how are the resources in the Tang Sect headquarters' treasury? Are they enough for a million to evacuate?"
Upon hearing this, Hu Jie's eyes widened instantly.
His junior disciple actually wanted him to move the Tang Clan's treasure trove to the Body Sect!
Hu Jie's throat tightened slightly. He composed himself and said, "Xiao Xiu, this isn't a million-dollar evacuation."
.
"Hmm?" Jiang Xiu raised an eyebrow, puzzled. "Uncle-Master, could it be that the resources in the Tang Sect's treasury don't even amount to a million?"
"No." Hu Jie shook his head. "A million dollars is nothing compared to the resources in the Tang Sect headquarters' treasury. Putting a million federal dollars into the Tang Sect headquarters' treasury would be just taking up space and wasting paper."
"————" Jiang Xiu paused upon hearing this. It turned out that he had underestimated the Tang Clan. But then Jiang Xiu felt even more excited.
Rather than having these precious resources blown to smithereens by god-killing fixed-position soul-guided cannons, it would be better to strengthen their Body Sect!
Moreover, faced with a god-slaying fixed-position soul-guided cannonball, no one would care about these resources. Since nobody wants them, you can't blame him for automatically picking them up.
"However, Xiaoxiu, you seem to be oversimplifying things. The security of the Tang Sect headquarters' treasure vault is comparable to that of District 13 in the Federation. It's practically impossible to forcibly take it out."
"Furthermore, the inside is filled with all sorts of soul tools. Even if I, my martial uncle, were to take resources from there, I would have to report it according to the rules, and if it exceeded a certain amount, I would need the approval of the Tang Sect Master. So, evacuating a million people is basically impossible."
At this point, Hu Jie slowly recounted the difficulties involved.
"Don't worry, Uncle-Master, someone will provide us with an opportunity." Jiang Xiu's lips curled slightly, and he said meaningfully, "At that time, you just need to stay at the Tang Sect headquarters and open the treasure vault."
"Huh?" Hu Jie was taken aback, and asked in great confusion, "Xiao Xiu, where did you get this information? Could it be that the Tang Sect headquarters has been invaded?"
"I have a few connections outside," Jiang Xiu said with a modest smile. "Uncle-Master, you just need to prepare a storage bag that's big enough."
Over the years, he had become completely certain that his uncle was truly loyal to the Body Sect, and his master, Mu Ye, was devoted to him wholeheartedly. Therefore, it was perfectly acceptable for him to reveal some information to those close to him.
Moreover, he needed the help of his uncle, Hu Jie, to handle this matter.
But he won't reveal the specific details.
"Extensive network?" A hint of surprise appeared in Hu Jie's eyes.
Even if Xiao Xiu has a wide network of connections, how far can it go? Does he possibly have connections in the Federation? Or perhaps in the Holy Spirit Cult, an organization of evil soul masters? Or even more outrageous, in a hostile abyssal plane?
Suppressing these thoughts, Hu Jie chuckled softly.
Xiao Xiu is still young, and it's a good thing that he's ambitious and proud, because that's what gives him the motivation to work hard.
He agreed for now, and planned to step in and teach her a lesson after she ran into a wall during her break, since there wasn't much of a loss anyway.
"Alright, Xiaoxiu, your master will agree. After returning from the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well, your master will go back to the Tang Sect headquarters."
Hu Jie said with a smile.
Jiang Xiu could naturally see that Hu Jie didn't believe him, but he didn't care. As long as Hu Jie could open the Tang Clan headquarters' treasure vault, that was fine.
Immediately afterward, Hu Jie asked, "By the way, Xiao Xiu, what method did you say you could use to make those proud immortal herbs completely submit and willingly hand over their spiritual medicines and immortal herbs without anyone having to watch over them?"
"Uncle-Master, throughout the entire Douluo Continent, I've only come to understand one word: Kill!"
A glint of coldness appeared in Jiang Xiu's eyes. "As long as you kill the disobedient ones, the rest will all obey."
He possesses the identity of the Child of Nature and can use the Golden Dragon King to subdue the Water and Fire Dragon Kings' souls within the Yin-Yang Well. If any immortal herbs still rebel, he naturally will not keep them.
With the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Eye, this precious land has no shortage of immortal herbs.
Upon hearing this, Mu Ye and Hu Jie exchanged a glance, their eyes showing not worry but rather a hint of relief.
Their Body Sect has been turbulent for ten thousand years and has long seen through the dog-eat-dog world of Soul Masters. If they are not strong and ruthless, they will only be bullied.
"Then let's do as you say, Xiaoxiu. We'll set off for the Ice and Fire Yin-Yang Well tomorrow." Hu Jie said without saying anything more, slamming his hand on the table.
Makino nodded in agreement and then said, "Xiaoxiu, you should go back and rest too, and get some rest to rejuvenate."
"Disciple takes his leave." Jiang Xiu bowed again and walked out of the house, gently closing the door behind him.
"Hu Jie, Dong Zi'an wants to arrange for Jiang Xiu to undergo training in the Abyss Passage in the future. What do you think?"
After Jiang Xiu had completely left, Mu Ye rubbed his palms together slightly, his eyes filled with worry, and said, "This is what Dong Zi'an told him in advance."
"Then let's go." Hu Jie picked up his teacup and said, "If Xiao Xiu wants to rise quickly after joining the Federation, he needs enough battle merits. This will also be a kind of experience for Xiao Xiu."
"I understand that, but I'm a little worried because Xiao Xiu hasn't fought those ferocious abyssal creatures yet. What if he encounters those abyssal kings in the abyssal passage?
Makino shook his head slightly.
"No rush, let's take it slow. Let's first see what opportunity Xiaoxiu mentioned about the million-dollar evacuation from the Tang Sect headquarters' treasure vault." Hu Jie took a sip of tea and said with a deep look in his eyes.
Although he found it hard to believe, then again, Jiang Xiu hadn't made a mistake yet.
At this moment, Hu Jie recalled what that big, simple-minded guy, Aruheng, had said before—"The Tang Clan sells weapons; those who do many evil deeds will surely perish. Sooner or later, they will be destroyed by cannonballs falling from the sky."
"What could it be?!"
Hu Jie kept thinking, but he couldn't come up with any clues.
In his view, Shrek City was so safe, and with Shrek Academy there, if the Tang Sect headquarters were invaded, Shrek Academy, as an ally of the Tang Sect, would definitely send strong people to help.
At that time, the invaders will have to face two top-tier forces.
Unless—Shrek Academy and Tang Sect both perish—
Hu Jie shook his head, suppressing the impossible idea and stopping thinking about it. After all, he still preferred immediate gains.
For example, those arrogant immortal herbs that will scream their lungs out tomorrow but no one will come to save them—
late at night.
Inside Na'er's room at the Spirit Pagoda.
"Why hasn't Master returned yet? It's already so late. Is there something urgent that needs to be done?!"
Na'er lay on the soft bed in a white nightgown, her beautiful silver hair cascading over her shoulders, her fair legs exposed, her pink toes twitching, and her pretty face filled with curiosity.
By this time, her master would usually be back.
But just then, Na'er's silver ahoge stood up alertly, and her bright purple eyes looked out the window.
"My foolish Na'er, you're quite alert after all." At this moment, a slight silver ripple appeared in the space, and Gu Yue's beautiful figure slowly appeared.
"Gu Yue, you wicked woman, what are you trying to do now!"
Na'er put her hands on her hips, her pretty face full of caution. She had already written down the fact that Gu Yue had stolen her oranges, and she absolutely could not forget it.
Gu Yue dared to steal Ju Zi today, she'll dare to steal her boss tomorrow, and she'll dare to kick her out of bed the day after. We must be vigilant!
"Here, this is to make up for it." Gu Yue waved her hand, and a bag of bright orange tangerines was placed on the table next to Na'er.
"uh-huh?"
Na'er raised an eyebrow and parted her pink lips slightly, saying, "Gu Yue, don't try to tempt me with such a small thing. Which cadre can't withstand this kind of test?"
"Just say what you need to say."
Even so, Na'er had already swept the oranges into her pocket with a wave of her hand.
"I need your help in my cultivation!"
Gu Yue didn't care, and looked up at Na'er on the bed, saying each word slowly and deliberately.
"Huh? No way!" Upon hearing this, Na'er immediately took a few steps back and refused righteously. Her first time had to be with the boss!
Upon seeing this, Gu Yue paused for a moment, then realized that Na'er had misunderstood. Her pretty face froze, and she gritted her teeth, saying, "Foolish Na'er, what are you thinking? I was talking about normal cultivation!"
As Gu Yue spoke, he took out the Rising Dragon Pillar covered with gilded dragon patterns. At this moment, the Rising Dragon Pillar contained a powerful energy, and a rich and ancient dragon aura emanated from it.
The Dragon Pillar is now fully charged. If she and Na'er work together, they can truly activate this super artifact of the Dragon God, thereby helping Di Tian break through his shackles.
"Oh~, you mean this cultivation?" Na'er muttered, a glint of mischievousness flashing in her purple eyes, before she said generously, "Okay, but Gu Yue, you must give me another ferocious beast."
She hasn't forgotten her original purpose.
Queen Na'er shall tame all the ferocious beasts of the world!
"Hmm?" Gu Yue's beautiful eyes flashed, and she gave Na'er a deep look before replying, "Alright, I'll lend you Zi Ji for now."
Na'er wanted another ferocious beast to monitor her, and naturally, Na'er's request was granted.
"Hehe, Gu Yue probably doesn't know that Xiong Jun has already betrayed us," Na'er chuckled to herself as she saw Gu Yue agree.
Gu Yue and Na'er exchanged a glance and smiled.
"Foolish Na'er!"
"Foolish Gu Yue!"
The two of them silently said this to themselves.
"Come, let's join forces and activate the Dragon God Pillar!"
Without further ado, Gu Yue set up a protective array, then sat cross-legged on the bed, facing Na'er, with the Dragon Ascension Pillar placed in the middle.
As Na'er and Gu Yue made their move together, the Dragon Ascension Pillar immediately emitted wisps of golden light, and the dragon patterns on it seemed to come alive, with a loud dragon roar echoing around them.
At the same time, Leng Yaozhu returned to her room from outside, but this time she did not go to see Na'er.
"Little Rest————Na'er————"
Leng Yaozhu lay languidly on the large bed, her red robe slightly unfastened, revealing her exquisite figure. A hint of haziness appeared in her cold and beautiful phoenix eyes, while her delicate eyebrows were slightly furrowed.
She saw hope in Jiang Xiu for breaking through to the limit of Douluo Quasi-God, but that required Jiang Xiu's cooperation.
"This kind of dual cultivation through spirit fusion will probably benefit Xiao Xiu's cultivation, but how do I bring it up?"
Leng Yaozhu was conflicted, and the fact that Soul Masters with Martial Soul Fusion often became partners kept popping into her mind and irritating her.
Jiang Xiu's spirited appearance during the day remained vivid in her mind—
"If it were possible, wouldn't both your teacher and Na'er be able to—"
Thinking of this, Leng Yaozhu's beautiful face flushed slightly. She quickly suppressed these thoughts and spat twice, "Pah, pah, pah! What nonsense are you thinking—"
Even so, a hint of mist appeared in Leng Yaozhu's beautiful eyes once again.
Her graceful figure became increasingly charming.
