136 The Han and mu families
The Holy tower of spiritual peak looked huge, but it only had five floors. Each floor was tall, spacious, and empty. There were only murals on the ceiling and the stairs that led up.
After looking at the frescoes on the five floors, the six cultivators of the Lu clan looked at each other and didn’t say anything.
Although they didn’t speak, they could tell what everyone was thinking from their eyes.
They all felt that this matter was very dreamy and unbelievable. They felt that the contents of these murals were just like those novels and legends circulating in the market.
However, reason told everyone that this was not the case.
The Holy tower of spiritual peak was made of heaven and earth phenomenon, and the murals inside were carved out bit by bit by lightning that appeared out of thin air.
To say that these murals were made up?
But this was too bizarre.
“Don’t mention this after we get out.” Lu chaoxi said after thinking for a while.
“I’ll save it.”
They could understand what Lu chaoxi meant.
They couldn’t understand the contents of these murals. Even if the contents were true, they were too old.
However, things that involved the primordial era might contain some secrets.
These secrets were too old and did not seem to have any meaning to the Lu family at the moment. However, if he were to reveal it, it might cause trouble.
Then he would be silent.
As for the Holy tower of spiritual peak, the Lu family did not intend to open it to outsiders.
Of course, there were times when there was no way to stop them. After all, if news of the auspicious sign at the west side of the mountain were to spread, there might be some famous cultivators-for example, ancestor hai-who would be interested and come in to watch.
Anyway, he couldn’t stop them, so he just watched them carefully. The Lu family didn’t know anything anyway.
However, the Lu family would definitely not take the initiative to publicize this matter.
“Brother, remember not to tell sister-in-law about this.”
Lu chaoxi was stunned for a moment before he realized that his sister-in-law was referring to Li Yanling.
“You brat, Zhenzhen won’t.”
……
Eight months later, Lu chaoxi and Li Yanling’s engagement ceremony would be held on Yuyan mountain.
Quite a few people had arrived.
On one hand, the Lu clan had invited many cultivation clans in the anling Prefecture.
Now that the Lu clan had invited them, there was no one in the entire anling Prefecture who dared to not come.
Lu chaoxi took the opportunity to hold a meeting with the representatives of the cultivation families.
After the Zhao clan was destroyed, the Lu clan had to take back some of the empty benefits.
However, unlike the Zhao clan, the Lu clan’s population was too small. It was difficult for them to control many industries directly like the Zhao clan in the past.
Of course, they didn’t need much in Pingyao. But beyond that, the only places that the Lu family could directly control were the two neighboring places, Sishui River and Luyi. As for a county capital like anling city, they would definitely have to send someone to control it directly.
However, things like Pingan County and Changhong County were out of control.
However, Mu Yang’s method of gaining power was a good reference.
Apart from anling city, where Lu Chaohe would personally take charge, the Lu clan was prepared to control the other places like mu Yangcheng did in Sishui.
That was to take in a vassal.
The first to admit defeat was the Han Corporation.
Before this, the Han family of Luyi had almost completely sided with the Zhao family. Including the one who had just built his Foundation, there were already three Foundation cultivators in his family, and their strength was not ordinary.
However, the Han Corporation was still quite smart. In the end, they did not directly go against the Lu clan. Even when the Zhao clan launched a large-scale attack, they only made way and allowed the Zhao clan to pass through. At most, they provided some supplies, but they did not directly send cultivators to join the battle.
When the Zhao clan was destroyed and Zhao Zidan and Zhao zhengzui died at the foot of Yuyan mountain, they were the first to react and admit defeat.
Less than ten days after the battle on Yuyan mountain ended, the clan leader of the Han clan, han deshang, personally came to Yuyan mountain. Whether it was to admit his mistake or to apologize, he always maintained a very proper attitude.
The Zhao family was gone, and looking at the MA family in front of them, who had a similar strength to them, how could the Han family dare to have the mentality of being lucky?
At that time, the Han family had agreed to almost all the conditions that the Lu family had proposed.
In the future, the 20% of the Zhao family’s interests in Luyi County would all belong to the Lu family. Furthermore, the Lu clan did not need to send their direct descendants to manage the businesses like the Zhao clan did. The Han clan would manage all the businesses and hand them over to the Lu clan every year. Of course, if the Lu family was still worried, they could send someone to check the accounts at any time, and the Han family would cooperate fully.
In addition, the Lu clan would be given access to the three high-grade cultivation techniques of the Han clan. They would send the original copies over and keep the handwritten copies. He also sent a hand-written copy of the other wonder-grade cultivation technique to the Lu clan. This wondrous-grade technique was a metal-attribute technique. It was called the golden sun Sky-opening mantra, which was a supplement to the Lu clan’s technique system.
Other things aside, Lu Weiwen would probably switch to this cultivation technique. She had double spiritual roots with the metal attribute as her main attribute. In addition to her gold virtue spirit body, she did not have a good cultivation technique before and could only practice the three revolutions double yang technique. Now that he had this ‘golden sun heaven opening mantra’, the problem of the cultivation technique was mostly solved.
The only flaw was that the Han clan only had content for the foundation establishment stage. They didn’t have anything for the Enlightenment and golden core stages. In the future, if Lu Weiwen wanted to make further progress in this technique, she would have to find a way to make up for the subsequent content.
In addition to the contribution of the cultivation technique, the Han family would also provide an additional 300 spirit stones to the Lu family every year as a tribute to the Lord.
Most importantly, they would also be recruited by the Lu clan. When needed, they could send cultivators to carry out the Lu clan’s missions.
All in all, the Han corporation’s attitude and conditions were full of sincerity.
This also appeased the Lu family’s anger. Previously, when the Lu family was having internal discussions, they were still discussing whether they should heavily strike the Han family as a warning to others. Now it seemed that the Han family had paid a considerable price in order to not be the chicken to be killed.
In the future, the Lu clan would be able to earn about 500 spiritual stones a year from Luyi County, and they would not need to invest any manpower or resources to maintain it.
Since that was the case, the Lu family decided to let the Han family off the hook for now.
Mu Yangcheng’s situation was not much different. Taking advantage of the fact that he was invited to the engagement ceremony, mu Yangcheng arrived one and a half months earlier. During his meeting with Lu chaoxi, he had made it clear that he wanted to establish his own family.
Lu chaoxi expressed his support.
In the future, when mu Yangcheng established his own family with the help of the Lu family, he would undoubtedly become a stronger ally of the Lu family. He would also be able to control the Sishui County better.
This would not be a bad thing for the Lu family.
In order to gain the Lu family’s support, mu Yangcheng’s conditions were also modeled after the Han family’s. In the future, 40% of the profits from Sishui County would go to the Lu family. Mu Yangcheng wanted to establish a family and needed money in the beginning. As a subsidiary, he didn’t need so much money from the beginning. He only needed 100 spirit stones a year.
In Sishui County, the Lu family could earn 500 spiritual stones a year.
