Chapter 1120: A Massive Haul

There were two objectives for holding this wedding.

The first one was to hold a wedding for Xiao Chou and Bai Yao that had no interruptions. The second one was obviously to create profits for the sect!

Aside from all of the presents that were specifically addressed to Xiao Chou and Bai Yao, all of the other presents counted as sect earnings as most of the wedding-goers had come to attend the wedding in order to build better relations with the sect.

This didn’t mean that Xiao Chou and Bai Yao didn’t receive anything good. The presents that they had both received had probably far exceeded the wealth of two Return to Void Stage mighty figures.

An Lin gave two seventh-grade immortal pills to the newlywed couple. These two pills were known as Blood Replenishment Immortal Pills, and they could replenish life force and energy extremely quickly.

When Bai Yao sucked Xiao Chou dry, this immortal pill could allow him to at least soldier on for another two hours!

Xu Xiaolan, Xuanyuan Cheng, Liu Qianhuan, and the others also gave the newlyweds many valuable presents.

Aside from that, there was a mountainous pile of presents from other sects and powers that were specifically addressed to the couple as well.

In short, Xiao Chou and Bai Yao were rich!

Of course, the sect was still the biggest winner by far!

The treasurers, Da Bai and Xiao Ze, had already finished tallying everything up.

Everyone sat in the conference chamber, awaiting the result with bated breath and scorching eyes.

This was the moment of truth, and it was extremely exhilarating.

Da Bai slapped a paw to the table before clearing his throat. “Woof woof!”

“Please speak in a comprehensible language,” An Lin corrected.

Da Bai rolled his eyes before an elated expression appeared on his face. “For this wedding, we sent out a thousand invitation letters, and there were a total of six hundred and sixty sects and powers that attended the wedding. Aside from that, there were also two hundred and thirty itinerant cultivators of the Soul Formation Stage cultivation base or above who had come to attend the wedding.”

An Lin slapped the table angrily. “What a low strike rate! There were over three hundred powers that dared to ignore our invitation?”

Xu Xiaolan shot a glance at An Lin. “You had even sent invitation letters to the Demonic Realm and the Sinister Spirit Beast Cesspool! Do you expect them to turn up just so that they can get bashed by everyone else here?”

An Lin heaved a forlorn sigh. “The True Demon Tribe in Little Na’s world is much more adorable.”

Da Bai ignored An Lin and continued with his report, “Our sect has made some huge earnings during this wedding. We received thirty-six spirit tools, two hundred and eighty spirit pills, over six hundred spirit fruits, over a hundred tons of all types of precious materials, and we even received six immortal pills! Woof!”

Everyone was full of excitement upon hearing this.

“Now, for the part everyone has been waiting for, woof!” Da Bai slammed the table with excitement again. “Our sect has earned a total of forty million spirit stones!”

Boom!

Everyone let loose cries of surprise upon hearing this.

“For… forty million? That’s even more than last time!” Su Qianyun’s dreamy blue eyes were wide with shock.

“You didn’t miscalculate, did you?” Xuanyuan Cheng was also very astonished.

Xiao Ze chimed in in confirmation. “Da Bai and I counted three times, so it’s definitely correct!”

“We only received just over thirty million spirit stones for our sect grand opening! To be able to make forty million spirit stones of profit during this wedding is simply incredible!” Elder Tang Ximen was struggling to wrap his head around this astronomical sum.

Everyone was given a fright by this massive number.

Generally speaking, the grand opening of a sect should be its greatest event. All of the celebrations following that should have been less important and earned less profit as a result.

However, this trend had been completely bucked here.

They had still underestimated just how much the Four Nine Immortal Sect’s influence had grown!

An Lin remained the calmest among everyone.

He interlaced his fingers before speaking in a slow voice, “We made a profit of forty million from the wedding, which takes our total liquid assets for the sect to ninety million spirit stones. However, we still need ten million more spirit stones in order to reach our target of a hundred million to repair the Starfire Battleship…”

Everyone fell into silence upon hearing this.

Was ten million a lot?

It was only ten percent of a hundred million, so it didn’t sound like much.

However, this was an unimaginably large sum even to the average first-grade sect!

Liu Qianhuan waved the six-feathered staff in her hand. “A medium-sized demonic sect has recently reared its head in the Wind Plain State. We should deploy the powerful beings from the Divine Mirror Enforcement Team to destroy their sect and see how much we can profit from that.”

An Lin turned to the young sorceress beside him with a gratified expression.

Liu Qianhuan’s proposal was one that he could certainly get behind.

“Bai Ling, I’ll leave this to you,” An Lin delegated with a smile.

Bai Ling nodded in response. In any case, aside from instructing their disciples, the Pavilion Lords’ only other job was to exterminate demonic sects for income…

“By the way, is there anything going on with the Dragon Court of the Eastern Seas recently?” An Lin suddenly asked.

Bai Ling turned to An Lin. “What do you want to do?”

“I want to borrow some money,” An Lin provided a clipped response.

Bai Ling: “…”

Everyone: “…”

Demolishing a medium-sized demonic sect would probably earn them one or two million spirit stones at most… However, they needed ten million more spirit stones. What better way to bridge the rest of this gap than by borrowing some money from the Dragon Court…

“Master! You have to keep a level head and refrain from doing anything rash!” Xue Zhantian waved his little wings as he spoke, “The Dragon Court is fraught with perils, and you may not be able to return if you’re not careful!”

Xiao Ze also nodded. “Little Tian is right. Bei Lian has told me that they have a spell formation that can pose a threat to even Dao Integration Stage super mighty figures. It would be very dangerous to try and rob them.”

“Let me reiterate. I’m going to BORROW! Not rob!” An Lin corrected.

Everyone turned to him with skeptical expressions.

An Lin: “…”

“That’s why I’m asking Bai Ling if any important event has taken place in the Dragon Court of the Eastern Seas recently. If there’s a Dragon Court mighty figure roaming around outside the Dragon Court, I can go borrow some money from them,” An Lin elaborated with a resigned sigh.

Everyone came to a realization upon hearing this. He was going to rob a Dragon Court mighty figure away from home…

“Hey hey, why are you all looking at me like that?” An Lin’s chest constricted.

Everyone exchanged knowing smiles. They knew exactly what An Lin was up to!

“Ever since the battle for the spirit stone mine in the Flying Ball Tribe territory, the Dragon Court of the Eastern Seas has kept a low profile,” Bai Ling said as she disclosed what she was aware of. “However… I’ve heard that they’re going to hold a ritual to pay respects to their ancestors. It’s apparently going to be held on Heavenly Dragon Island of the East Sea…”

“A ritual to pay respect to their ancestors?” An Lin felt like this sounded familiar.

Bai Ling provided an explanation.

“The Dragon Tribe was an extremely powerful and prosperous tribe on the Ancient Tai Chu Realm. The Dragon Court of the Eastern Seas is actually just a branch of the Ao family from the Dragon Tribe of the Ancient Tai Chu Realm. Hence, their ancestors are naturally the Dragon Tribe of the Ancient Tai Chu Realm. This ritual is most likely something to pay respect to that Dragon Tribe.”

Xiao Ze nodded. “Back in the Ancient Tai Chu Realm, the Ao family was slightly inferior to the Xiao family of the Dragon Tribe, but they were decent.”

An Lin turned an elated gaze toward his disciple.

Xiao Ze seemed to be slowly taking after him.

Thus, An Lin slapped a palm to the table and made a decision.

“Alright, then it’s decided! We’re going to go borrow some money from our Dragon Tribe brothers!”
