Chapter 800

To quickly resolve the impact of the demon race's defection from Qingtian Holy Land, the Yunluo Holy Master and the Yaochi Holy Master also went all out.

Not only did they send personnel from the holy lands to help Dao Yi Sect build the Shanmen, they also specifically contacted the Talisman Master Alliance and the Formation Master Alliance.

The location had long been decided—it is the Ten Thousand Demon Pass.

To build the Shanmen, the previous formations naturally needed adjustment, and many places even required to be redrawn.

The people from the two holy lands were easy to handle, after all they had to obey their own Holy Master's orders.

Within a few days, the people from Yunluo Holy Land and Yaochi Holy Land arrived at the Ten Thousand Demon Pass one after another.

However, the Talisman Master Alliance and the Formation Master Alliance side posed some trouble.

Neither side refused, firstly because they had no conflict with Dao Yi Sect, and secondly, since the two holy lands had both spoken, this face could not be denied.

However, compared to the people of the two holy lands, the Talisman Master Alliance and the Formation Master Alliance were more pragmatic.

"Brother Yu Mo, the two alliances mean they can help, but the due wages cannot be lacking even a cent."

Inside the city lord's mansion, the Yunluo Holy Master spoke.

Hearing this, Yu Mo nodded without concern.

"It's fine, as long as it's not excessive; this is also a matter of course."

Currently, the Heiyan Commerce Association is rolling in wealth, having swallowed the Dingming Commerce Association in one gulp and successfully entered the ranks of the Ten Merchant Guilds.

Besides that, two other merchant guilds are in contact with Dao Yi Sect, apparently wanting to affiliate with it.

This is normal, after all these two merchant guilds were previously affiliated with Qingtian Holy Land, and they are both among the Ten Merchant Guilds.

With three merchant guilds as support, spirit stones are naturally not lacking.

Moreover, since this will be the location of the Shanmen, everything must naturally be done properly and cannot be shabby.

Hearing this, the Yunluo Holy Master nodded; as for the people of the two holy lands, they were entirely providing voluntary labor.

But even so, they had not the slightest complaint; the reason, well..............

"Delicious, delicious, the meals of Dao Yi Sect are really not bad."

"I was wondering why the Holy Master never went back before; it turns out there's this secret."

"Not enough, far from enough; I have risked life and limb for the holy land, yet the Holy Master never told me about this good thing."

"We've made a profit this time."

"Tsk, you were reluctant before, and now you're profiting again?"

"I was immature back then."

At first, the people of the two holy lands were likewise dissatisfied, after all, being dragged in for no reason to do hard labor, who would feel comfortable?

Moreover, they were still members of the holy lands.

But that very evening, over the course of a dinner, these people's attitudes underwent an instantaneous 180-degree turn.

The food was so fragrant it reached their hearts; they had never eaten such delicious meals before.

Just thinking about being able to eat such meals every day, the grudges in everyone's hearts were long thrown to the clouds.

As long as they could eat such food, what's a bit of hard labor? Besides, they're studying this anyway.

Being able to add bricks and tiles for the Human Race is their honor.

"Food Ancestor, rest assured, with us here, this Shanmen will surely be made splendid."

"That's right, the Food Ancestor has entrusted this to us; by the way, what are we eating tomorrow?"

Their attitude toward Ye Zhangqing was also exceedingly respectful; each white-haired old man called out 'Food Ancestor' just to get a bite of this meal.

It was indeed difficult for them.

The people of the two holy lands were full of vigor; following Qi Xiong and others' demands, the previous Ten Thousand Demon Pass was almost to be completely leveled and rebuilt.

As for those affiliated forces, according to Dao Yi Sect's intention, they were to return to their respective sects.

Anyway, Qingtian Holy Land has already defected, so there's no need to stay in the Ten Thousand Demon Pass any longer; the danger has been eliminated.

However, regarding this, many affiliated forces refused to budge; their meaning is simple: they want to establish the new sect near Dao Yi Sect.

"Superior Sect, as affiliated sects, we naturally bear the duty to protect the Superior Sect; thus we have decided, just like the Superior Sect, to build the new Shanmen near the Ten Thousand Demon Pass."

"We too."

"Please fulfill this, Superior Sect."

Looking at the Sect Masters of the affiliated sects below, Qi Xiong shook his head helplessly.

The original sect was fine; why build another? This isn't just idling around doing nothing.

However, for the Sect Masters of the affiliated sects, this is not idleness but consideration for the future.

If they return to the sect, how will they continue to mooch meals thereafter?

Although they certainly won't be able to linger in the Ten Thousand Demon Pass like this in the future, as long as they stay nearby, even if they can't eat every day, being able to mooch a meal every few days should be fine.

As the saying goes, 'He who does not plan for the future will have near-term worries'; thus this is again planning for the future.

Also too lazy to quibble over these; willing to stay around, Qi Xiong didn't say anything more.

Next, inside and outside the Ten Thousand Demon Pass, an unprecedented infrastructure project began.

Dao Yi Sect and the various affiliated sects were all busy to their heart's content.

There were Saints and Great Saints who, using great divine powers, forcibly moved various mountains, rivers, and lakes outside the Ten Thousand Demon Pass with sheer might.

Such a massive change completely transformed the scenery of the Ten Thousand Demon Pass beyond recognition.

The former Ten Thousand Demon Pass could be described as a wasteland, after all it was a border pass constantly facing Demon Race attacks, so naturally no one paid attention to these things.

But now it's different; Dao Yi Sect and all its subordinate affiliated forces have confirmed the Shanmen site here, no doubt, and in the future the Ten Thousand Demon Pass is expected to become one of the most prosperous regions in Zhongzhou.

Just like the regions where the Yunluo Holy Land and the Yaochi Holy Land are located.

After being busy for about half a month, this day the people of the Talisman Master Alliance and the Formation Master Alliance finally arrived.

"Whether to speak or not, they still gave considerable face to the two holy lands."

The team is led by our own alliance leader, a Saint-level Talisman Master and a Saint-level Formation Master, and their subordinates are all elites—clearly this is not just a casual walk-through, merely going through the motions.

However, after arriving at Myriad Monster Pass, the leaders of the two great alliances were also frank; when facing Qi Xiong, although their attitude was polite, they did not lack any of their due demands.

"Sect Master Qi, the alliance is not a one-man dictatorship; we have contributed our labor, and the due wages cannot be lacking; I hope Sect Master Qi can understand."

"Rest assured, I now know that our sect also agrees on the price."

"Then that's good."

The demands of the Talisman Master Alliance and the Formation Master Alliance are not low, but Qi Xiong agreed readily and even paid half of the deposit on the spot.

This is also what the two great alliances demanded: give half first, then after completion, pay the other half; this has always been the rule, and it is not intentionally making things difficult for the Dao Yi Sect.

After receiving the money, the two alliance leaders nodded in satisfaction and immediately got busy.
