All resources for Chapter 200
The reason is simple: this person is a master at the ninth level of Qi Refining, and his identity is not yet known to the outside world.
Cai Fanghua wasn't stupid at all. He knew perfectly well that they were at their wits' end and had no chance of leaving alive, which was why they were so eager to surrender!
As long as he betrays these people, he will have a glimmer of hope, even if that hope is as small as a drop in the ocean. He will desperately try to survive, like a drowning person grasping at a straw.
Just then, the protective formation suddenly emitted a tremendous tremor, and then the ground they were standing on shook violently as if by an invisible giant hand, catching them completely off guard.
Before they could react, the protective array shattered instantly, like fragile glass.
Then, a bolt of lightning, like a dragon, suddenly descended from the sky and struck the crowd with lightning speed, blasting the six people away.
Of the six, three were struck by lightning like kites with broken strings, turning into a bloody mist that dissipated into the world.
The other three were also struck and trembled all over, their eyes glazed over, as if they had lost their souls.
Xia Yuhui stepped forward and, as if crushing an ant, stepped on Cai Tingyuan's head. A faint smile played on his lips as he chuckled, "So it's you? The Cai family's last resort."
"Red-haired old ghost, don't worry, your Xia family will follow in the footsteps of my Cai family and perish. I'll be waiting for you in the underworld." Cai Tingyuan took a while to come back to his senses and glared at Xia Yuhui with eyes like two sharp swords, as if he wanted to pierce through Xia Yuhui.
If looks could kill, Xia Yuhui would probably have been torn to pieces by now, leaving no trace of his body.
"Hmm, you've got guts. I'd like to see what good things the Cai family has left you."
After saying that, he quickly searched Cai Tingyuan and found three storage bags. These three storage bags were of very high quality, and even if Xia Yuhui wanted to break them open, it would take him several quarters of an hour.
"Senior Xia, I know all the secrets of the Cai family. I deliberately activated that formation just now. I beg you to take me in, considering my willingness to surrender. I will serve you faithfully in the future to repay your great kindness." Cai Fanghua endured the excruciating pain and kowtowed repeatedly, begging for mercy.
"Cai Fanghua! You beast! How could my Cai family have such a wicked child? I should have killed you with one blow back then..."
"You old dog, shut up! Senior Xia is here, how dare you spout such foul language? If you don't want to live, don't drag me into it. I, Cai Fanghua, still want to live."
"Haha, interesting. Don't worry, I will know all the secrets in your minds in a short time," Xia Yuhui said with great interest.
Sure enough, not long after, the bright moon descended from the sky and slowly floated down beside everyone.
"I will search the souls of these three people to uncover all their secrets."
"As you command, Master."
"Ahhh! Xia Yuhui, you'll die a horrible death! You, you..."
"Ah! Senior Xia, spare my life! I can tell you everything myself. Please have mercy and spare my life. I surrendered willingly."
A dozen or so breaths later, the three of them collapsed to the ground like rag dolls, their eyes clouded, having lost all vitality.
Xia Yuhui also received a message from Mingyue. He nodded in satisfaction, put all the storage bags of the six people into his pocket, and then flew away on his sword, disappearing from the spot like a shooting star.
The storage bags of these six people contained all the cultivation techniques and classic texts in the Cai family's library, as well as various rare treasures, such as second-tier spiritual plants, pills, spiritual weapons, formations, alchemy formulas, and weapon-forging formulas, each of which was a priceless treasure.
It can be said that all the essence of the Cai family is gathered in these few small storage bags.
Moreover, the Cai family had a backup plan. If a special secret method wasn't used to open the storage bags of these six people, the storage bags would explode instantly like a lit bomb, destroying everything inside.
Unfortunately, Xia Yuhui knew how to search souls; otherwise, he would have watched helplessly as his treasures were lost.
A dozen or so breaths later, eight people had arrived at Xia Yuhui's side.
"Go to these places immediately and bring back all the hidden resources." Xia Yuhui gave each of the six a location.
None of these places are on Mount Ling. Four of them are located in the former Cai family territory, one is in the Chi Mu family territory, and one is even in the Xia family territory.
The Cai family's move was simply to allow anyone who escaped to rise again by relying on these resources.
"We will obey the clan leader's command!" Upon receiving the message, the six people flew away on their swords like arrows.
After the six people left, Xia Yuhui took out four high-grade evil spirits from the Hundred Ghosts Banner and let the four evil spirits enter the bodies of the remaining two people.
"Both of you are at the eighth level of Qi Refining, so dealing with those people should be a piece of cake. Remember, if the Jin family comes knocking on your door afterward, just tell them my name."
"Yes, sir!" The two men accepted the order and immediately left to carry out their mission.
The two men's mission was to go to Panyun Market and kill several Cai family cultivators who were hiding there.
I believe the Jin family will give him face; if they don't, it means they're completely severing ties with him. Given his current status, I believe he still has some dignity left.
After the others left, the battle lasted for another half day before the Xia family finally wiped out all the Cai family cultivators on Mount Ling.
Beside the spiritual vein on Lingshan Second Street, Xia Yuhui, Xia Yuhua, Xia Yuren, and several other high-ranking members of the Xia family were gazing at the spiritual vein with rapt attention.
Feeling the astonishing spiritual energy emanating from the spiritual vein, Xia Yuhui was overjoyed. He had originally thought that this spiritual vein was just a mid-grade second-tier mortal vein, but who would have thought that it had actually reached the high-grade second-tier.
It is evident that the Cai family has invested a great deal in this spiritual vein.
With such a spiritual vein, even if the Xia family adds a dozen or so Foundation Establishment cultivators, their resources will definitely be guaranteed.
Having a spiritual vein means having an inexhaustible supply of spiritual stones.
Look at the thousands of acres of spiritual fields on this spiritual mountain. Every year, they can earn more than 10,000 spirit stones from them, not to mention that they can also grow some second-tier spiritual plants.
Originally, the Cai family, like the Xia family, possessed two second-tier spiritual plants, but unfortunately, one of them was destroyed in the war.
The other second-stage tea tree was severely damaged because it was uprooted. If you want its tea leaves to grow again, it will probably need at least a dozen years of careful care.
"Haha, my Xia family will surely prosper!" Xia Yuren laughed heartily, his voice booming like a bell.
"Pass down the order: begin transforming this place into a market town today, a market town exclusively for my Xia family, without taking any share from Guiyun Sect." Xia Yuhui was overjoyed and immediately issued the order.
A high-ranking member of the Xia family immediately took the order and left.
Panyun Market was once the only market in Jinling Prefecture, but most of its profits had to be handed over to Guiyun Sect. Even the most famous shops in the market were opened by Guiyun Sect.
However, Xia Yuhui is now unwilling to extract any benefit from any force in this Jinling market.
In the past, Xia Yuhui would never have dared to act this way, and he wouldn't have dared to attack the Cai family so easily. However, things are different now. Guiyun Sect is already preoccupied with its own problems, and this is the perfect opportunity for the Xia family to rise to power.
While sharing profits among multiple people certainly ensures safety, Xia Yuhui was confident that he could protect those profits.
