Zheng Yi had always been clear in matters of reward and punishnt. He directly took out several Blood Lotus Seeds and handed them to Qi Lin, both to reward him for his effective managent and to urge him to quickly cultivate, with the hope that one day he might break through to the Foundation Establishnt Stage.
After all, given the current power of the Daluo Alliance and Qi Lin's constitution as a Second Generation Blood Cultivator, even if resources are piled up, it wouldn't be difficult to produce a Foundation Establishnt Cultivator.
As Qi Lin looked at the Blood Lotus Seeds in his hand, glistening like gemstones, he felt the surge of Blood Qi power within him, desiring to consu them. He took a deep breath and offered his gratitude with a bow.
He was well aware that with his own aptitude, he could only beco a supervisor of a small mine. Even with good luck, he would remain busy until his death, having long lost hope on the path of cultivation.
However, after eting Zheng Yi, he, who was once re cannon fodder, rose to prominence in one step. Although people whispered behind his back, calling him a dog relying on human power, he was indifferent.
Even being a dog, it depends on whose dog you are. So powerful figures cannot be approached just because you want to.
He was fortunate to have followed a master with grand ambitions and even more remarkable skills, becoming the Chief Steward of the Daluo Alliance. Moreover, he now had the chance to progress further, peering into the Foundation Establishnt stage, enjoying the treatnt of those lofty Foundation Establishnt Cultivators.
Things that even in his wildest dreams he dared not imagine were now his reality.
Qi Lin's greatest strength was his clear understanding of his status and identity; he had clarity in everything and understood who was the source of everything he possessed. Hence, he was unwaveringly loyal to Zheng Yi.
Anyone aiming against Zheng Yi was like desecrating his family's ancestral tomb, bringing him extre distress. After all, the entire Qi Family's ship was now tied to Zheng Yi—sharing glory and downfall.
A gentleman would die for a confidant!
Qi Lin would rather die than betray Zheng Yi.
"Alright, bring in the people from the Xin Family!"
Qi Lin turned and left the main hall, soon bringing in a man with a sincere and honest appearance, resembling a simple farr, into the hall.
Upon looking up, he saw Zheng Yi seated above. The middle-aged man with a yellow face hurriedly saluted, then fell to his knees with a loud thud, pleading loudly.
"Alliance Leader, please rescue the Young Master of our Xin Family. The old family is gone, the Young Master is still young, and only the girl Xin, Ling Xian, is struggling to support everything, enduring imnse hardship. The Xin Family is willing to serve as oxen and horses, completely following all orders of the Alliance Leader."
Such a grand gesture even startled Zheng Yi, who quickly looked at the tearful middle-aged man with a yellow face.
The Xin Family was a small clan with, at best, Qi Cultivation Great Perfection as its strongest. It had only been passed down for three generations.
In the Great Yi City Immortal Realm, this was a small family at the bottom, liable to extinction at any mont.
However, compared to other small families, the clan's ancestor hailed from an artifact refining branch of a Righteous Dao Major Sect, fleeing here and living relatively peacefully by relying on his artifact refining skills.
Later, a fortune descended, and they accidentally discovered a small White Yi Sword Qi Stone Ore behind their own mine—a vein that nurtures Taibai Essence Qi. Though small, if utilized well, it could nurture several Foundation Establishnt Cultivators without much problem.
Thus, the Xin Family carefully concealed the existence of this vein, intending to mine it slowly in exchange for a large amount of cultivation resources to enhance the family's strength.
Unfortunately, a traitor erged within the family, causing information to leak and be discovered by the Foundation Establishnt family, the Qin Family, who then dispatched powerful Foundation Establishnt Cultivators to seize the White Yi Sword Qi Stone Ore.
Having received the information in advance, the family head of Xin Family appointed his eldest daughter, Xin Lingxian, as the new head, leading the clan mbers to escape first while he stayed behind with the clan elders to guard the Xin Family, hoping to negotiate with the Qin Family and retain so of their interests.
Little did they know, the Qin Family's approach was extrely ruthless. From the start, they had intentions beyond acquiring the White Yi Sword Qi Stone Ore—they wanted to completely annihilate the Xin Family and swallow the entire small Artifact Refining Clan.
The outco was predictable: the Xin Family was too naive, leading to the demise of the family head and the clan elders. However, they did buy so ti for the main forces and bloodlines of the family, leaving the new head, Xin Lingxian, to escape with a portion of the clan mbers.
Afterward, this group wandered to the territory of the Daluo Alliance. Their head, Xin Lingxian, due to the Qin Family's issued wanted notice, was detained by the disciples of the Nine Yin Hall.
Thus, the remaining clan mbers, under the leadership of the only remaining clan elder, joined the Daluo Alliance, hoping to rescue their head.
Understanding the entire situation, Zheng Yi sat quietly, his Divine Soul of formidable intensity, his identity, and his strength beyond asure.
Even without uttering a word, an intangible pressure and aura emanating from him perated the hall.
The middle-aged man from the Xin Family, with his yellow face lowered, was drenched in a cold sweat, not daring to take a deep breath.
There was no denying that as Zheng Yi controlled more power, his dignity grew increasingly formidable.
