Chapter 505
This remark made Liu Yong, Song Danqing and others fall silent.
This is indeed the truth.
But...
Can this Wuxin Zhenren really make progress and continue to improve his realm?
Your Ningtai's life is coming to an end, and his family business is small, so he is willing to take a chance.
But our family is big and has many children, so we dare not lose our capital.
Liu Yong also whispered, "Ning Laogui, I advise you not to gamble, just follow the normal proportion agreed upon, this will be good for you and us."
Song Danqing and the others also nodded in agreement.
In their view, they and Ningtai are an alliance of interests.
Which Wuxin Zhenren is, after all, just a backer.
With his name, they can do things more easily as a cultivation family.
Faced with the dissuasion of the crowd, Ning Tai said calmly, "No matter what you think, I'll leave it here. My Ning family is willing to pay 70% of the income as tribute."
"How much tribute you are willing to pay has nothing to do with me."
"What I just said was just to fulfill my responsibility as a friend."
Seeing Ning Tai so persistent, Liu Yong, Song Danqing and others couldn't help but sigh a few times and had to give up.
However, a few middle-aged Gu Masters listened to Ning Tai's words and thought about it.
"The Immortal has arrived!"
At this time, a respectful voice suddenly came from outside.
Ning Tai and others suddenly looked solemn and stood up immediately.
Footsteps were heard.
Chu Xuan strode into the inner room.
"Meet the Immortal!"
Everyone spoke in unison and saluted respectfully.
Chu Xuan did not respond, but passed by everyone and sat down in front of the first seat.
After sitting down, he casually said, "Sit down."
"Thank you, Immortal."
Everyone sat down in unison. Without waiting for these people to speak, Chu Xuan said calmly, "My time is precious, and I only have one stick of incense this time."
"Tell me, how much family income do you plan to pay tribute to?"
These words immediately made Liu Yong, Song Danqing and others a little stiff.
Senior Immortal...are you speaking so directly?
It makes us a little embarrassed.
Ning Tai was the first to stand up and presented the divine consciousness jade slip, "Report to the Immortal, my Ning family is willing to pay tribute to 70% of all income."
"This jade slip contains all the industries and children of my Ning family, please take a look."
Chu Xuan took the jade slip, put it on his forehead, and read it all in an instant.
He nodded slightly, "Yes, Mr. Ning, please sit down."
Liu Yong, Song Danqing and others looked at each other for a long time, and also presented the divine consciousness jade slips.
"Report to the Immortal, my Liu family is willing to pay tribute to 50% of all the income."
"Report to the Immortal, my Song family is willing to pay tribute to 50% of the family's income."
"My He family is willing to pay tribute to 50%..."
The cultivators stood up one by one.
Chu Xuan's face remained calm and calm.
In his imagination, the family's tribute would only provide him with an additional 100 to 200 large spirit stones every year.
The difference between paying tribute of 70% or 50% is not big.
But the difference of 20% is just spirit stones.
No, there are also human relationships.
It shows that these immortal cultivation families are unwilling to bleed.
Finally, two more cultivators stood up.
"My Wu family is willing to pay tribute to the family with 70% of the income."
"My Zhang family is willing to pay tribute to the family with 70% of the income!"
Chu Xuan smiled faintly and asked casually, "What are your names?"
"Report to the Master, my name is Wu Wei! I just entered the Nascent Soul stage two years ago."
"Report to the Master, my name is Zhang Chufeng, and I was promoted to the Nascent Soul stage a year ago."
Chu Xuan nodded slightly, "Yes, I remember it."
"Mr. Ning, from now on, you will collect the tribute income from each family once a year. This matter will be handed over to you."
"By the way, let the two young people Wu Wei and Zhang Chufeng have more experience."
After saying that, he stood up and left.
Ning Tai said respectfully, "Yes, I will not fail you!"
Everyone looked at Chu Xuan's back as he left, and many people felt very complicated.
Especially Liu Yong, Song Danqing and others, who didn't know whether today's decision was right or wrong.
If 50% was changed to 70%, what would the future be like?
...
Hai Lanxing
Chu Xuan sat cross-legged in the water curtain cave, practicing quietly.
Ning Tai, Liu Yong, Song Danqing, Wu Wei, Zhang Chufeng and others finally made different choices.
He could understand this very well.
No one was willing to pay tribute to the precious spirit stones.
After all, they had worked hard to earn them.
But they had to pay 50% or even 70% to him, the real person of the transformation of the spirit.
But the attitudes of these people today were enough to determine the fate of their families in decades or even hundreds of years.
He was never a good person.
If he came to a critical moment in the future, which family he would protect and which family he would not protect was all up to him.
"But now, let's focus on our own practice first."
"There is no news from Wang Tiancheng. He probably couldn't find a suitable formation for the transformation of the spirit stage."
"Then wait a little longer. What I lack the least now is time."
Chu Xuan abandoned all the messy thoughts and practiced quietly.
In the blink of an eye, five years passed.
Even if he got the turtle meat, his body refining realm would not be improved overnight.
In addition, he had to practice various body refining techniques, which delayed his practice.
After five years, his body refining realm was still stuck at the 44th level.
However, he could always feel that he was not far from the 45th level.
It is estimated that it will take only three or four years.
Chu Xuan took a step and returned to Yunxiao Pavilion on Jinfeng Island.
After a while, he arrived at Chidanzhai, which is located in the center of Jinfengfang.
Thanks to his reputation as a great cultivator of the Spiritual Transformation Realm, Chidanzhai is thriving.
Since the day it opened, there has been a constant flow of people every day, and countless cultivators have come and gone.
As soon as Chu Xuan landed, the cultivators around him were shocked and saluted.
"Hello, senior!"
Two figures walked out of Chidanzhai and were extremely excited to see Chu Xuan.
Chu Xuan glanced at them and immediately smiled, "Tao Zheng, He Zhao, why are you here?"
"Let's go in and talk."
In the inner room.
Chu Xuan sat, while Tao Zheng and He Zhao stood respectfully.
"...Since the senior disappeared at the Wanbao Conference, I have inquired from many sources, but I still don't believe that the senior really died."
"Of course, I haven't forgotten to manage the Chidanzhai of Nishang Island. This is the account book for the past eight years. I have kept it and not missed a single entry."
Tao Zheng respectfully presented a thick stack of account books.
Chu Xuan smiled and nodded.
Tao Zheng continued to speak, looking excited, "Just half a year ago, the news that the senior was promoted to the God of Transformation spread to the East Third Ring Road. He Zhao was well-informed and it was he who told me this."
"I was so happy that I entrusted the Chidanzhai of Nishang Island to a trusted alchemist, and took him to the Golden Phoenix Island on the East Second Ring Road on a ship."
"Not long after I came here, I met Senior Ning. He brought me here and asked me to work hard here and wait for you to come out of retreat."
"You finally came out of retreat."
"Tao Zheng, meet the real senior!"
At the end, Tao Zheng burst into tears and knelt on one knee.
He Zhao also knelt down respectfully, "He Zhao, I greet you, Senior!"
