ch 461 – Returning Home; Amazing Resources (2)


Raising her brows slightly, Cheng Xiao Xiao gazed at them and said, “Your cultivation levels are pretty high up there. It shouldn’t be difficult for you to start your own organization. You may need some resources, but that shouldn’t be difficult for someone of your caliber. Can you please state the reasoning behind your decision?”


“Miss, what you might consider as ‘not too difficult’ is actually quite difficult, very difficult!” Zongzheng Zhuxuan was the first to reply to her with a helpless look.


Seeing that Cheng Xiao Xiao didn’t comment, Zongzheng Zhuxuan first glanced over at Mo Xuanzun and continued after seeing that he showed no particular reaction to his comment, “The resources remaining on this continent had been declining. With the exception of the large resources that were controlled by the top powers, the left over, scattered ones had been dug up by the unaffiliated in the last tens of thousands of years. Even with my cultivation level, when I go out to look for resources, I am not successful every time. Sometimes I would go on for months or years without finding anything!


“And now the resources are closed to depletion. With the exception of the disciples of the few large families and sects, for the unaffiliated, it’s an accomplishment to be able to reach the martial master level. In fact, most of the cultivators on this continent are martial master or below. It is extreme challenging to go above that. I would not be surprised if there will be no more cultivators on this continent in several hundred or a thousand years. And that’s because we have run out of resources!”


After he had said that, all the cultivators around lowered their head with a defeated look. It was obvious that this fact distressed them all.


Gu Chengli sighed slightly and said, “Miss, this was the main reason that we would like to join the Cheng’s. Even though we have no idea how resourceful are the Cheng’s, but just the mystical b.r.e.a.s.t.s itself was enough for us to make that decision that the Cheng’s are worthy of our loyalty!”


“Loyalty….” Cheng Xiao Xiao nodded and asked, “Does that mean loyalty for life?”


“Of course!” said both Gu Chengli and Zongzheng Zhuxuan simultaneously.


“Yes!” said the rest of the cultivators behind them.


“Excellent! Excellent!”


Regardless of what was actually on their mind, Cheng Xiao Xiao found their att.i.tude acceptable, “Okay. You have one more test to pa.s.s. As long as you can past this next test, you will be accepted. The promises remain; the Cheng’s can afford the resources for you. We have only one ask – loyalty. Loyalty for life!”


“Yes, Miss!” replied everyone in the most solemn way.


Cheng Xiao Xiao scanned over everyone and finally stopped on Gu Chengli and Zongzheng Zhuxuan and said, “With your cultivation level, you qualify to become the elders of Sacred Land Zhongyuan, but I need to know if you are up for the responsibilities.”


“We will not let Miss and the Housemaster down. You have our promises!”


“Okay! I guess we will have to see!”


They didn’t talk anymore after that. The arrangement was the same as the day before – the candidates were fed and collected into the dimension.


As this new batch of candidates were dining, Cheng Xiao Xiao let out the ones that she had collected yesterday. After a day and a night, all of them seemed a little disheveled. Luckily, n.o.body was hurt.


By now, all of them were 100% loyal to Cheng Xiao Xiao and, just like Old Man Ying, they now view Cheng Xiao Xiao as their Mistress without consciously being aware of that.


Similarly, she had arranged for their room and board before sending the next batch into the dimension for little Yuteng to play with.


Then it was the third day of the recruitment. Now that they’ve already recruited over 100 individuals; if all went well, this would be the last day of the recruitment activities.


Just like the last two days, these cultivators seemed to have figured that this would be the last day of recruitment, so even more of them showed up. And all the ones that made it to the stage were martial spiritualist and martial kings.


There was a total of four more martial kings today!
