481: Chapter 480: Fire Another Round 481: Chapter 480: Fire Another Round Hearing Huo ngyao say that, she had another purpose, Ye Haochuan grew curious and quickly asked, “What purpose?”
“Offering small benefits isn’t a long-term solution, but if we tie them firmly to our chariot, not only can we prevent them from leaking secrets, but we can also enhance our strength.”
At that point, Huo ngyao paused, then continued in a low voice, “You’re already at the Postnatal Peak.
Given your talents, you might soon reach the Innate Realm.
When that ti cos, you’ll be qualified to form your own team.
But teams need people, and aren’t there ready-made candidates right here?”
Ye Haochuan’s eyes lit up but then he imdiately shook his head, “But according to the rules of our Ancient Martial Arts Sect, only our sect’s disciples can join the team.
There are Phantom Sound Sect disciples here, and disciples from the Institute of Extensive Learning too.
How could they possibly beco a part of our sect’s team?”
Huo ngyao rolled her eyes and said, “Seriously, you’re as clever as a monkey usually, so why can’t you figure this out now?
Who says these Phantom Sound Sect disciples and those from the Institute of Extensive Learning can’t be part of our team?
Can’t you think bigger?
Even if they aren’t our people, they can at least be pulled in as allies, be our friends, right?”
Ye Haochuan then saw the light and scratched his head, saying, “That makes sense.”
“What do you an it makes sense?
I’ve been right all along!” Huo ngyao said.
Ye Haochuan nodded and laughed, “Right, right, you were right!
…Hehe, I had no idea your brains could match your beauty!
You’re truly my Female Zhuge!
How about this—we’ll listen to each other’s commands from now on.
I’ll take charge in bed, and you take charge outside of it, how about that?”
This rascal, barely a few sentences in, and his true colors showed again!
Huo ngyao helplessly shook her head and spat at him, “You’re never serious.”
Ye Haochuan was so amused he wanted to laugh, then he asked her about the specifics of her plan.
“The specific plan, well, it’s pretty simple.
I see this place is rich in Fierce Fire Crystal Mine and there’s already mining machinery, which could serve as our secret base.
Why don’t we take over this place, strengthen the defenses, and then this can be our steady source of Fierce Fire Crystal Stones in the future.”
Hearing this, Ye Haochuan nodded but hesitated, “Actually, I’ve considered this too, but the problem is, who should I leave to guard this place?
Brother Dazhuang and Junior Brother He are only at the Postnatal Early Stage; they probably couldn’t defend it properly.
And I can’t stay here for long periods…”
“Silly!
Aren’t I also here?” Huo ngyao said.
“You’ll guard?” Ye Haochuan widened his eyes.
“What?
You think I can’t handle it?” Huo ngyao pouted.
“Of course not, I’m just worried I’ll miss you when you’re not by my side.
You know, the Fire Elental Realm only opens once a month.
If we want to see each other, it’ll be at least a month’s wait,” Ye Haochuan said in an infinitely tender, sorrowful tone.
“Tch!” Huo ngyao snorted, “You have so many love interests, you can’t even count them all, and you’d miss ?”
“Why wouldn’t I?
Even if I don’t miss you, my little buddy down there will miss you,” Ye Haochuan said, trying to lighten the mood with a mischievous laugh when he noticed her displeased expression.
“You go too far with your words.” Blushing at the thought of his intimacies, Huo ngyao couldn’t help but turn red.
“But speaking of which, this ti in the Fire Elental Realm will be extraordinarily dangerous.
You’re only at the Postnatal Late Stage; guarding it might be quite difficult,” Ye Haochuan said worriedly.
“I know, but…” Huo ngyao suddenly blushed, seeming hesitant to continue.
“But what?
Co on, tell !” Ye Haochuan queried.
“But, I found, that since our last ti…
our Dual Cultivation, my cultivation has grown a lot.
It seems like I’m close to a breakthrough.
If…
if we…” Huo ngyao hesitated, stamring.
Ye Haochuan caught her drift and blurted out, “Hehe, are you saying, if we make love again, your cultivation will increase, and you might break through to the Postnatal Peak?”
“What, fire another shot?
How crude!”
Huo ngyao gave him a seductive look with eyes like silk, but eventually, she blushed and nodded her head slightly.
Ye Haochuan laughed heartily and whispered, “No problem, we’ll do it again later to help you ascended to heaven instantly by breaking through the Postnatal Peak.”
“Go away.”
Huo ngyao spat at him playfully, too lazy to engage further and turned to address everyone, “These two storage boxes of Fierce Fire Crystal Stones, I’ll distribute them to everyone first.
After that, I have sothing else to say.”
“Okay!” Everyone agreed in unison, but they were genuinely curious about what she wanted to say.
Under the supervision of Huo ngyao, the treasures from the two storage boxes were distributed among the seventy to eighty people present.
Although the share each person got wasn’t much, receiving tens of thousands of Fierce Fire Crystal Stones for free was still a trendous benefit.
Therefore, everyone was beaming with joy, filled with gratitude towards Huo ngyao.
“Next, I’d like to say a few words.”
Huo ngyao paused for a mont and continued, “I believe you all have noticed that this area is actually rich in Fierce Fire Crystal Mines.
Unfortunately, the first to discover it were disciples of the evil cult, Hellfire.
If it weren’t for our discovery, they would probably continue their rampant mining.
Therefore, it’s necessary for so of us to stay back and protect these mines from Hellfire disciples who may co to steal again.
I assure you, the economic benefits that will co from here will be shared amongst us.
Would anyone like to join in?”
“I’ll stay!”
“I’m staying too!”
“Damn, those despicable Dongying people, coming to our turf to steal our mines, unforgivable!
I’ll stay!”
People expressed their agreent.
Huo ngyao happily declared, “Well then, from now on, let’s not differentiate between the Ancient Martial Arts Sect, the Phantom Sound Sect, and the Institute of Extensive Learning.
These mines are ours now, and each one of us will have a stake in it.
As for the percentage of shares, we can discuss that in detail later, how does that sound?”
“Great!” Everyone was exuberant.
However, soone soon raised a rather practical concern, the issue of whether they could actually hold the mines or not.
Thinking about the recent devastation brought by the tens of thousands of wolves, everyone felt a chill.
“Actually, I’ve thought about this issue too.
The reason why Hellfire’s disciples were completely wiped out earlier was mainly due to internal strife leading to a lapse in vigilance.
I believe that as long as we stand united, dealing with attacks from wolf packs of similar size should not be too difficult.
After all, what do these beasts know other than their instinctive nature of the survival of the fittest?
Even if we can’t beat them, we can still avoid them!” Huo ngyao explained calmly.
Her suggestion resonated deeply with everyone, and they all agreed enthusiastically.
“Junior Sister, I agree with what you said.
However, since we’ve decided to stay here, with so many people, we definitely need soone powerful to maintain control, right?”
It was a tall disciple from the Institute of Extensive Learning who stepped forward and spoke loudly.
