84: Chapter 77: Hell Palace (10,000-Word Mega-Release)_3 84: Chapter 77: Hell Palace (10,000-Word Mega-Release)_3 To obtain better resources, we must unite and strengthen our family.
The three elders nodded.
Then Elder Sann remembered the money-making resources mentioned by the family head.
“Family Head, what was that money-making resource you mentioned just now?”
“Aside from selling metal ores, we can also use these metal resources to make and sell our own products, a Magic Artifact that is even more advanced than the Voice Transmission Conch, the Flying Message Treasure.”
After hearing what you said, we were feeling down, only watching others make money while we could only sell ores.
If we can sell higher-quality resources, we’ll earn more than them.”
“Haha, we each do our own business!
They have their advantages, and we have ours.
However, ours will be a bit more expensive since it’s higher quality.”
As Family Head Luo Sheng laughed, he also told the elders the price.
“Agreed, our different resources can be sold at various prices; there will definitely be different choices, and it won’t affect the business of both our families.”
“Whether it affects us or not is not for us to say.
But by creating this Magical Treasure to compete in business, won’t Family Head Lai have an opinion?”
Our resources are different, and we aren’t making the same things as him.
Our products are more expensive but also more profitable.
He might get upset about it!
The elders burst into laughter while discussing this.
As Family Head Luo Sheng listened to the elders, he laughed along and then commanded them to take action, dividing the work among them, the management of Artifact Refining, ore resources, and Jade Slip management.
After receiving their family’s instructions, the elders happily set out to take action.
Yan Weiwei escaped back to her cave dwelling at Refining Artifacts Peak.
Actually, she didn’t need to run; those senior brothers weren’t starving wolves.
But being a woman and stared at intently by so many men did make her shyly blush and flee.
Back in her cave dwelling, Cai Xiangxiang saw her return, made her tea, and then went to cook.
Their dwelling was intended for female Inner Sect Disciples, who had the option to co-rent with others or live alone.
When promoted to Inner Sect Disciple, Yan Weiwei chose a small courtyard dwelling at the management office.
The quaint yard was good for planting flowers and had a leisurely feel, resembling the dwelling of a young lady of high status.
Not wanting to co-rent wasn’t due to incompatibility with others.
She did know some other female disciples who came to the Immortal Sect to cultivate, and women also have secrets and little schemes.
Especially girls from wealthy families, with their abundant resources, tend to look down on disciples from poor families.
Yan Weiwei had her own self-respect.
She didn’t mind if others looked down on her; living separately and cultivating with even more determination, would anyone look down on her once she grew strong?
The meals Cai Xiangxiang cooked were quite delicious.
They didn’t eat together, perhaps because she was used to eating alone.
It was also because Cai Xiangxiang didn’t dare to eat with her; now that they were in a master-servant relationship, there was no longer the casualness of friends.
After Yan Weiwei had eaten and drank tea, she once again reminded Cai Xiangxiang not to go out and that if she needed anything, she could ask her.
She even shared with Cai Xiangxiang the special traits of her body, advising her to be careful even within the cave dwelling to defend against prying eyes.
When cultivating, she must always activate the Formation, and she mustn’t be disturbed while immersing herself in cultivation until she comes out.
Upon hearing Yan Weiwei’s words, Cai Xiangxiang felt a bit scared.
No wonder her cultivation techniques were different from the other disciples.
Luckily she hadn’t returned to the Mount Tai Sect…
Remembering her master’s gloomy expression, her heart trembled.
She used to think her master favored Huang Chen because he had received benefits from the Huang Family.
Now she realizes it might not be just that; her master was truly disgusting.
“Miss, I understand.”
Yan Weiwei activated the Formation after hearing Cai Xiangxiang’s words and went into her room to cultivate.
A day quickly passed, and there was no news from her senior brother.
Yan Weiwei didn’t find it appropriate to ask and waited quietly in the cave dwelling.
She also didn’t dare to go out, fearing an encounter with avenging Huang Family People.
Cai Xiangxiang also continued her cultivation tirelessly.
Besides her cultivation techniques, she practiced spells too.
The Spell Secret Manual given to her by Yan Weiwei suited her perfectly.
She was cultivating an Ice Spell, currently only at a minor level of accomplishment.
In her room within the cave dwelling, she cast her spell.
At a wave of her hand, the room turned very cold, snowflakes dancing down from the ceiling, then freezing into blocks of ice.
Cai Xiangxiang knew there was a Formation in the room and that the walls were defended by it.
She cast blocks of ice against the wall.
She shaped an ice figure and then struck each of its vital points with ice blocks from her hand.
In an instant, the ice figure fell from the wall, shattered by the ice blocks in her hand into pieces.
Cai Xiangxiang rehearsed the sequence again, able to fling many ice blocks with a flick of her wrist, as if attacking an enemy.
Despite the room’s coldness, she felt no chill—only the warmth of her beating heart as she cultivated her spell over and over until it was time to cook.
Yan Weiwei received a message about the upcoming contest for the Immortal Sect Disciples, with the Servant Disciple competition taking place in two days.
Feeling anxious, she paced her cave dwelling.
With the Servant Disciple contest approaching, Cai Xiangxiang would have to compete.
Regardless of winning or losing, it was essential to participate.
