Chapter 68

The Yunyang Sect, the only sect hegemon of the Zheng State, has been established for six thousand years. There are tens of thousands of sect disciples, among whom there are two Golden Core Ancestors, eighteen Purple Mansion experts, and one or two hundred Foundation Establishment cultivators; the rest are all Qi Refining cultivators.

It possesses six fourth-grade spirit veins, among which two are fourth-grade high-tier spirit veins in the sect.

For the Su Family, the Yunyang Sect is a behemoth. The Su Family naturally also hopes to lean on the Yunyang Sect; after all, even if the Yunyang Sect pulls out a hair, it is enough for the Su Family to eat.

In these years, the Su Family has also been sending disciples to the Yunyang Sect. One reason is that the family's resources are insufficient, and secondly, in the Yunyang Sect, their chances of obtaining a Foundation Establishment Pill are greater than in the Su Family.

And once these Su Family disciples gain a firm foothold in the sect, they will also feed back into the family in the future.

The family and the sect complement each other.

Of course, these don't have much to do with Su Fan; he just roughly understood the situation of cultivators in the Zheng State.

As for the immortal cultivation world, Su Fan has not yet been involved, but sooner or later he will leave the Yunwu Mountains; he cannot stay in the mountains forever.

Su Family disciples, everyone will go out to experience; not going through experience, unable to grow, this is also a rule of the Su Family.

The family will not cultivate flowers in a greenhouse; these are all lessons learned through blood.

Su Fan is already at the seventh layer of Qi Refining and can already go out.

It's just that the task at Baiyun Feng still needs to be handed over.

Su Fan is waiting.

Su Fan didn't wait long before the family also sent someone to replace him.

Baiyun Feng here, after Su Fan's seven years of management, whether it is on the mountain or in the valley, is a scene of prosperity.

The family is naturally very certain of Su Fan's ability.

Because Su Fan has been managing the spirit fields for seven years, in the future production, there will always be Su Fan's twenty percent profit.

As for the Black Fire chickens, that is Su Fan's private property. Seventy percent of the annual profit will be handed over to him, and the remaining thirty percent is the salary for the disciples sent by the family to replace Su Fan in guarding this place.

After all, in the future, if someone else manages it for you, you also have to pay others a salary, right?

Regarding this, Su Fan naturally had no opinion.

Seventy percent profit is already very high, with a full forty spirit stones a year, plus spirit fields, it is almost fifty-plus.

This is a long-term profit.

Su Fan handed over very simply, and then patted his butt and left.

Cultivating to the late stage of Qi Refining, the spirit vein here actually doesn't have much effect on him anymore, so if he wants to cultivate, naturally he should return to the mountains.

And the family has already confirmed him as the ninth elder; in the Yunwu Mountains, there will also be a good cave dwelling.

This is what Su Fan values more; after all, a second-grade low-tier spirit vein, even if it is not at the spirit vein spring, the spirit energy is far stronger than here at Baiyun Feng.

Returning to the Yunwu Mountains, after being idle for a few days, Su Fan was called by Su Shaoquan to the Business Hall on the top of the mountain.

At this moment, in the main hall, there are more than ten family disciples, and Su Fan sees that they are all at least late-stage Qi Refining cultivators.

Except for the Great Elder, the other elders are also present.

This is a family clan meeting.

Su Fan thought of something instantly.

"This family meeting is convened to discuss a few things."

"The first thing is Su Qifan, Xiao Jiu, entering as an elder. Everyone also knows that Xiao Jiu previously proposed the matter of raising Black Fire chickens. In these two years, the family has also tried it, and the harvest is good. This year, relying solely on this item, the net profit is three hundred spirit stones."

"And this number will increase. As long as a spirit vein is discovered, the breeding can be expanded. Even cultivators at the first or second layer of Qi Refining can do it. In the future, it will be a pillar industry of our Su Family."

"This contribution cannot be ignored. The Clan Leader and the Great Elder discussed it, and finally decided to exceptionally promote Xiao Jiu to the ninth elder of the family."

"What do you all think?"

The one presiding over the family Business Hall is the Fifth Elder, Su Shaoquan. After he proposed it, the people sitting there had no changes in their expressions; they had already known it.

"The Clan Leader's proposal is good. Xiao Jiu has made a great contribution, and his cultivation has also reached the late stage of Qi Refining. I agree to the exceptional promotion."

The Seventh Elder is the only female elder in the family. Her gaze towards Su Fan is also very gentle.

"Agree."

"No problem!"

The other elders nodded one after another, and the remaining late-stage Qi Refining family disciples also did not object.

After all, Su Fan's contribution this time is indeed very great, and the family's income has increased, which is also good for them.

Naturally, they would not offend Su Fan.

"Good! Since everyone agrees, then Su Qifan is our Su Family's ninth elder."

Su Shaoquan looked at Su Fan with a smile, a somewhat proud smile appearing on his face. No matter what, Su Fan is the closest to his bloodline; he can be considered a person of his lineage.

Now that he can have such ability and status, he is naturally happy.

"Thank you, elders, uncles, and brothers for your support. Xiao Jiu will not live up to everyone's expectations." Su Fan also stood up and bowed to everyone.

"Haha!"

In the main hall, there was suddenly laughter.

"Alright! This is the first thing."

"The second thing is a proposal from Xiao Jiu: to build a city at Baiyun Feng. The terrain there is good, very secluded, located inside our Yunwu Mountains, and generally very difficult to discover."

"And there is a flat valley there, suitable for mortals to survive, and it can expand to a population of one hundred thousand."

"Xiao Jiu's meaning is that it can be used as a gathering place for our Su Family mortals. What do you all think?"

"Nowadays, the Su Family needs cultivators, so we must expand the number of mortals. Baiyun Feng is good."

"Fifth Elder, Baiyun Feng is only a first-grade mid-tier spirit vein; it's not enough to build a city! After all, according to the Ninth Elder's meaning, a town of one hundred thousand people needs at least one cultivator at the ninth layer of Qi Refining and multiple late-stage Qi Refining clansmen sitting in town."

A middle-aged man of the 'Xian' generation of the Su Family said.

"Not bad! The spirit vein is indeed not enough, but one can use a Spirit Gathering Array and spirit stones to upgrade the spirit vein."

"Nowadays, because of Black Fire chicken breeding, the family's income has increased, so upgrading a spirit vein is no problem."

In fact, regarding this matter, Su Shaoquan and several other elders had discussed it in advance, and everyone felt it was good. That place is indeed very suitable for mortals to survive, and there is no threat.

As long as the news can be controlled well, generally it will not be discovered by others.

Of course, even if discovered by demon cultivators, as long as there is sufficient strength, it can also be protected well.

Besides, that side is only a hundred li away from the Yunwu Mountains; a Foundation Establishment cultivator can fly over in less than the time it takes to drink a cup of tea.

There is no demon cultivator so stupid as to go and slaughter.

Listening to the Fifth Elder's explanation, the elders' expressions remained unchanged, and the remaining ten or so people exchanged whispers for a while before most of them nodded in agreement.

This matter is indeed beneficial to the family; after all, nowadays the family's cultivators are becoming increasingly insufficient, so it is indeed necessary to increase manpower.
