Chapter 229.2
But can we really manage so many martial artists? the Prime Minister questioned.
Those who dare to come out treasure hunting all have impressive skills.
Even the weakest among them are third-rate experts, and there will certainly be no shortage of second-rate and first-rate masters.
And innate masters will be even less scarce.
These people are lawless. What if they start causing trouble
Of course we cant manage them on our own, but we can reach out to the Taoist Sect and manage them together! I believe that faced with such huge benefits, the Taoist Sect will not remain indifferent! Great Luo Emperor said confidently.
Although the people of the Taoist Sect seek enlightenment and ask about the way of heaven, they also practice martial arts, and martial arts cannot be separated from resources.
And money is the biggest resource.
Therefore, they will certainly not give up this piece of fat meat that has been delivered to their doorstep.
What about the treasure of Heavenly Khan
Great Luo Emperor shook his head: Forget about that. Its not something we can covet. We just need to make good money from the outside, thats enough! Prime Minister, this is a big matter, you will be responsible for it!
Yes, Your Majesty!
After the Great Luo Prime Minister withdrew, he immediately mobilized troops and surrounded Yuhuang Mountain, expelling everyone inside.
He also issued an order that anyone who wanted to enter Yuhuang Mountain to search for treasure had to pay 200 taels of silver per person.
Treasure hunters from all over were furious.
Great Xia exploiting us is one thing, but you Great Luo are also not letting us off?
And youre too greedy! Great Xia only asks for 100 taels, and youre asking for 200 taels. Do you really see us as cash cows?
A man can be killed but not insulted, we absolutely wont pay this time!
We cant let others treat us like fish meat. Everyone follow me and lets break in!
Better to die and meet the birds in the sky than to live a hundred thousand years without dignity!
Before they knew it, there was a Taoist Sect Grandmaster who stood out expressionlessly, blocking their way while exuding a powerful aura.
Then, everyone became obedient and lined up to pay the money.
Next, Great Luo introduced their own meals, charging ten taels of silver for each.
The treasure hunters were enraged once again.Updated from novelbIn.(c)om
10 taels of silver for a meal? Why dont you just rob us right now?
Lin Beifan asked with concern, How have you recovered?
Reporting to Your Majesty, after taking the divine elixir you bestowed and resting for over half a month, our health has basically returned to normal! We should have no problem going on this treasure hunt! Eight Master Hu said.
Lin Beifan declared firmly, I forbid you to go!
What? Why? Eight Master Hu and the others were taken aback.
Lin Beifan explained, Because its too dangerous! The last unearthed tomb was a fake, and you all nearly didnt make it back! What if you dont return this time? Wouldnt your lives have been saved in vain?
But the treasure Wu Xie began to say.
Lin Beifan spoke earnestly, Treasures are important, but your lives are even more so! Wait until youve broken through to the Innate level, then we can talk about treasure hunting! For now, you are to stay here and focus on your cultivation, and youre not allowed to go anywhere!
Your Majesty! Eight Master Hu and the others were deeply moved.
Others cared about the treasure, but only this Emperor cared about their safety!
This was the enlightened ruler they should loyally serve!
Thank you, Your Majesty! We are willing to work tirelessly for you to our last breath! they said with tears of gratitude.
Watching the five of them leave, Lin Beifan smiled slightly.
Thats more like it. Once you break through to the Innate level, that will truly be serving the court!
As for that fake tomb, whats the point in joining the commotion?
Its just a wild goose chase, a waste of time!
At this moment, while the Great Luo Emperor was dreaming of making a fortune, bad news came his way.
In Baijin Mountain within Great Luos territory, another bottomless cave had appeared.
The situation with this cave was identical to those in Wanshou Mountain and Yuhuang Mountain.
Great Luo Emperor was shocked and dismayed: How can there be two tombs of the Heavenly Khan? Which one is real and which one is fake?
