C923 The Yi Family's Plan
This was just an inconspicuous reason. Most of the reason was why Wu Zimei wanted to buy land. She wanted to build a city!!
The establishment of a new city, where would the hundreds of cultivators and families of the Lian Yun Road be placed? Could it be that they would have to be controlled by Lee Hao in the future?
They were used to being unrestrained rogue cultivators. They were not used to being controlled by others. Furthermore, Lee Hao wanted to collect taxes. Although it was only ten percent, they had never paid taxes in the past.
Of course, they did not pay taxes. They were all exploiting others to collect taxes. And they were also collecting taxes ruthlessly.
Thousands of miles of land, hundreds of million mortals were working here. They worked so hard for a year, but they still had to face the threat of life and death. What did they get in the end? Not to mention Spirit Valley, they could only eat some coarse grain. The coarse grain was not enough, and it was easy to starve to death.
The so-called coarse grain was food that contained very little spiritual energy. There were also grains.
The land in Spirit Realm was fertile, but the growth cycle of the Spirit Valley was very long. It would only mature once every three years.
It was obviously impossible for mortals to eat these. They would plant some plants for them to eat.
It was mentioned before that Spirit Realm was suitable for these plants to grow. Spreading some seeds here would not require any care. In a short period of time, they would be able to harvest a lot of food.
However, there was a prerequisite here, which was that they needed land.
The plains of the Lian Yun Dao were too suitable for the growth of the Spirit Valley. Every family was eager to take out all their land to plant the Spirit Valley. How could they allow mortals to plant other food that would fill their stomachs? That was why there was a tragedy of mortals starving to death.
Cultivator were high and mighty. Whether mortals died or not had nothing to do with them. They didn't care about that either, as long as they could obtain enough Spirit Valley.
There were no fields in the four seas, and farmers would starve to death. This was the truth.
A month ago, after Wu Zimei arrived at the Lian Yun Dao, hundreds of cultivation families had already secretly met up and discussed how to deal with this crisis.
No one was allowed to privately reach an agreement with Wu Zimei. This was the consensus reached by the hundreds of Cultivators families.
Lee Hao was originally a foreign Cultivator. He was convinced by the rogue cultivators of the Xianlin Mountain, but these powerful local tyrants were not convinced.
When Wu Zimei saw the resolute attitude of the other party, she left angrily.
Yi Cheng also left. He walked to the entrance of a secret room and cupped his hands, "Old Ancestor, the people from Fallen Immortal City have left."
"En, I understand." The door of the secret room suddenly opened. An old man with a head full of silver hair sat cross-legged inside. His voice came from his mouth. He was the late Nascent Soul ancestor of Yi Family, Yi Ann.
Yi Cheng walked in and cupped his hands once more, "Old ancestor, the people of Fallen Immortal City have left in anger. I'm afraid that they will use other means to deal with us."
Yi Cheng spoke vaguely, but his meaning was very clear. Right now, the Fallen Immortal City was using gentle means, but there was no guarantee that the other party would not use force. Currently, the Fallen Immortal City had three great Cultivator of Great Perfection of Nascent Infant, and it was still the one hundred thousand Cultivator Army. The Yi Family would not be able to resist it.
Yi Ann's tightly shut eyes suddenly opened, and a cold light shot out from his eyes. He was not an easy person to deal with.
Back then, the Yi Family was merely a subordinate family of the Lin Family. He was just a dog of the Lin Family, but he seized the opportunity and destroyed the Lin Family while the Lin Family was weak. He seized the family property of the Lin Family, and that was how the current Yi Family was formed.
It wasn't an exaggeration to say that Yi Ann was a poisonous snake hiding in the dark. If he didn't move, he would kill him.
However, Yi Ann had paid a heavy price. After hundreds of years, his cultivation base hadn't improved at all, and he was still at the late Nascent Soul stage.
This was the terrifying part of the Heart Devil Oath!
The people of Lin Family weren't fools. The reason why they trusted Yi Ann was because Yi Ann had once given them the Heart Devil Oath. However, they never thought that Yi Ann would not only be ruthless to his enemies. He was ruthless to them as well. He didn't care about the Great Dao and wanted to destroy the Lin Family by force.
Regret? Yi Ann had been thinking about this question for the past few hundred years. He didn't regret it at all. He was a man with wild ambitions. He couldn't accept the fate of living under someone else's roof.
Yi Ann could only blame his bad luck. For the past few hundred years, the Yi Family had been searching for a treasure that could cure the Heart Devil Oath. Unfortunately, they found nothing.
Currently, Yi Ann only had over two hundred years left to live. He had entered the age of twilight, and there was no hope for him to attain the Great Dao.
At this time, the Yi Family had become Yi Ann's everything. How could he allow outsiders to seize the property that he had given up on the Great Dao in exchange for?
Yi Ann said fiercely, "Lian Yun Dao isn't a place to be slaughtered. The Yi Family isn't a tiger without teeth. If the people of Fallen Immortal City dare to come here, I will make sure that they won't be able to return alive."
Yi Cheng was stunned for a moment. Yi Ann's words were too much. Where did the Yi Family get the strength to deal with the Fallen Immortal City?
Yi Cheng looked at Yi Ann with a puzzled look.
Yi Ann sneered, "The enemy of the enemy is a friend. Lee Hao wants to truly control the Xianlin Mountain. It won't be easy for him to seize the resources of the Xianlin Mountain. Some people don't want to see such a situation happen."
Yi Cheng gradually had an answer in his heart.
In the current situation, only two people hated Lee Hao to the core, Pingwu King and South-suppressing King.
In the past, Lian Yun Dao's family would definitely not ally with Pingwu King and South-suppressing King. It was no different from asking a tiger for its skin.
But now, it was different. The Invincible Squadron of the two princes had been destroyed twice, and they had already suffered a serious injury. No one knew how long it would take for them to rebuild it again.
Even if the two princes formed another fleet, the Fallen Immortal City was like a fishbone stuck in their throat. As long as the Fallen Immortal City did not die, Lian Yun Dao would not be in any danger.
It was too difficult to destroy the Fallen Immortal City. According to their estimations, this stalemate would continue.
At this time, Lian Yundao could use external forces to let the two princes help them deal with the erosion of the Fallen Immortal City.
This was Yi Ann's plan. It was also the plan that Lian Yundao had discussed with several Cultivator of Nascent Infant Periods. It had been successfully implemented, but no one knew about it.
"Ancestor, do you have full confidence?" Yi Cheng still had a bad feeling in his heart. South-suppressing King and Pingwu King were no match for Lee Hao. Could they really stop Lee Hao by relying on them? Yi Cheng had no confidence at all.
"Of course!" Yi Ann was full of confidence. He said firmly, "According to my previous investigation in Fallen Immortal City, the fleet of Fallen Immortal City has disappeared. Ever Triumphant Army even went deep into the mountains to search for Spirit Vein. They suffered heavy casualties. What did Lee Hao use to deal with us? "
This was the confidence in Yi Ann's heart. About half a month ago, he had personally made a trip to the Fallen Immortal City and had gathered a lot of important information.
Yi Ann did not know where Lee Hao's fleet had gone. Just like when they came, there was no trace of them. However, he knew about the movement of Ever Triumphant Army.
They were hunting beasts in the deep mountains, and they were searching for Spirit Vein to build a new city. They had suffered heavy casualties!
So what if Lee Hao's warship was still there? Without cultivators controlling it, the warship was just trash.
Right now, he only cared about one thing, and that was when Lee Hao would recruit more cultivators to enrich the Ever Triumphant Army.
Yi Ann didn't care about it at all, he only cared about it. Because he knew that it would be harder for Lee Hao to recruit another hundred thousand rogue cultivators than ascending to the heavens.
Who would be willing to work for him if he sent a hundred thousand troops into the deep mountains to search for the Spirit Vein without caring about the lives of his subordinates?
