Chapter 649: Change of Thinking
The Yang family ultimately conceded a step.

It wasn't out of fear of the strength of the Golden Core cultivators on those ten ships; the Yang family still retained some power.

But things have come to this point, and there's no going back.

The news blockade has failed; there will be another twenty, thirty, or even a hundred ships of cultivators coming.

As long as this legendary place is not completely closed, a large number of cultivators will definitely come here.

Opportunity is the most important thing for a cultivator.

Many people waste their lives without ever achieving anything significant, living ordinary lives and ultimately turning into dust after repeated failures to break through.

The Great Dao of Nascent Soul, a lifespan of a thousand years!
A thousand years is plenty of time; there are plenty of opportunities.

Whether it's luck, talent, or foundation, they all have to take a backseat in the face of time.

With time, you have everything.

Master of Interpretation, knowing full well that the Yang family possesses a fifth-grade grand formation and that the immortal clan, which has stood for two hundred years, has profound foundations, why did you make the first move?
Because he couldn't wait any longer!
His lifespan was dwindling, forcing him to quickly seek opportunities for a breakthrough; otherwise, what use would all his strength and magical treasures be?

These monks' unwavering determination meant they would never give up this opportunity.

A newly opened legendary land, the richest in treasures!
Over the past 50 years, countless monks have personally testified to this point.

Yang Qiangjing certainly shared this thought.

The Yang family has already been forced into this legendary place, so the danger they have suffered must be turned into tangible benefits.

The Yang family was instructed to do their utmost to retrieve this first batch of treasures.

The blockade of Bright City was also to buy time for the people inside to pass through White Granary.

But things have gotten out of control.

When those ten ships arrived, Yang Qiangjing knew they wouldn't be able to enjoy it all by themselves.

However, she also had to ensure that the Yang family benefited!

We can't let so many people freely enter and leave the legendary place in front of her.

This is, after all, the property of this continent, the wealth of the Great Nai Empire.

So she took action.

The first strike was earth-shattering, repelling Po Zhenzi and severely injuring four top masters.

Declare the power of the Yang family!
At this moment, her suggestion that a contract must be signed before entry would be the only way to get these people to seriously consider it.

Respect is earned through your own efforts.

After Yang Qiangjing made her suggestion, the people on the ten ships seemed to be thinking about it. Ma Yan and Ma Bi, the two people in charge, frowned on the spot and subconsciously wanted to refuse.

“Lord Yang, a contract is not something you can just sign casually. The advantage of having over 200 Golden Core cultivators against the cultivators of your entire city is in my hands.”

"If you open the city gates now and hand over the treasure that unlocks the legendary land, we can wipe the slate clean of any unpleasantness that happened before, and we can continue doing business as usual. What do you say to that?"

Yang Qiangjing waved her sleeve: "If you don't accept our contract, then there's nothing to talk about. Let's settle this with our skills! This time, let's see who dares to try my Yang family's laser tower!"

This is a fight to the bitter end.

Thinking of the laser that had just shattered the illusory image of the Dharma body of heaven and earth, all the cultivators felt a chill.

Even those top experts couldn't hold out, and Ma Yan and Ma Bi, the two leaders, didn't even dare to leave the cabin. Who among them could be said to be stronger than these people?

Moreover, if we linger here with the Yang family, who knows how much of the legendary treasures they will take away?

Soon, various discussions arose from behind.

Once the discussion started, the division began.

Even though Ma Yan and Ma Bi insisted on taking a hard line, they couldn't resist the fact that so many cultivators were willing to reach an agreement with the Yang family.

Jieyu stroked his beard: "Why don't we ask the Yang family about their terms first?"

Finally, Ma Yan reluctantly said, "You'd better not talk nonsense."

"The conditions I proposed are all fair to us."

"First, every cultivator who wants to enter the legendary land needs to pay a sum of spirit stones to maintain the overall environment of our Great Nai Empire. With so many people blocking this place, the cultivators in our city dare not go out casually."

Upon hearing this condition, Ma Bi snorted coldly, but did not interrupt.

"Secondly, before the legendary land closes, you can only stay outside the city. You must not discuss entering my Bright City, you must not rob my Yang family's treasures, and you must not attack the people of Bright City or my Great Nai Empire."

The cultivators above didn't care about this.

"Our purpose in coming here is the legendary land. If you hadn't put away the medium that opens the legendary land, what would we be doing in your city?"

"You don't think we want to go to your city for a bowl of noodles, do you?"

"Both conditions are fine, let's get going quickly, don't waste everyone's time!"

In response to the words of the cultivator above, Yang Qiangjing continued speaking calmly.

"Third, after you leave the legendary land, if you have any treasures that you don't need, you should sell them to my Yang family first. At that time, a small market will be held here, and my Yang family will also offer some treasures to exchange with you. Everyone knows that the trade of my Great Nai Empire has always been fair and just. As the host, we will also provide necessary protection to prevent anyone from killing and robbing."

"These are our conditions. Anyone who wants to become a cultivator can sign a contract."

Ma Yan and Ma Bi glanced at the three rules and found that none of them were excessive.

The Yang family wanted to ensure their safety and also wanted to do business to make some money.

There seems to be only one thing worth discussing.
How much toll do you want?

"Ten thousand mid-grade spirit stones!" Yang Minrui shouted.

The cultivators in the heavens were greatly alarmed!
This is a considerable sum of money!

Many Golden Core cultivators don't even have that many spirit stones in their entire bodies!

Ma Yan angrily retorted, "Are you robbing me?! Ten thousand mid-grade spirit stones are enough to buy a low-grade spirit weapon!"

"I'll give you a maximum of 3000 mid-grade spirit stones! That's the most I can give you!"

Yang Qiangjing smiled and said, "Deal."

Ma Yan: "?"

Ma Bi: "??"

The cultivators in the sky: "???"

Then, all the cultivators in the sky looked at Ma Yan.

bad!
We were tricked by the Yang family!

At this moment, Yang Qiangjing took out the contract she had prepared earlier and changed 1000 to 3000.

"An agreement has been reached. Cultivators who wish to enter the legendary land can come to the city gate to sign a contract."

All the cultivators glared fiercely at the Ma brothers.

They negotiated such an exorbitant toll fee!

But by then, the die was cast, and the Yang family had already made their decision.

They could only suffer in silence.

After all, 3000 mid-grade spirit stones are something a Golden Core cultivator with ambition can scrape together.

Only a small number of cultivators looked embarrassed.

They may be truly impoverished, or they may have just spent a large amount of spirit stones to purchase magical artifacts in preparation for the challenges ahead.

At this point, they simply didn't have enough of the 3000 mid-grade spirit stones they had on hand.

"Oh, by the way, if it's really not enough, my Yang family can provide loan services. You can leave magic treasures or spiritual materials of equal value here and come back to exchange them later. Or if you can come out alive, you can use any treasures you don't need to pay off the debt."

The person above twitched his lips violently upon hearing Yang Qiangjing's words.

"The Yang family is really ruthless. Before we even went in to seek opportunities, they've already skinned us alive."

Are you still going?

"Go ahead! Do you know how many spirit stones a rare treasure that can help someone advance to the Nascent Soul stage can sell for?" "How much?"

"One million mid-grade spirit stones!"

"Hiss~~~ This is a spirit stone that I could never earn in my entire life."

At this moment, although they knew they were going to be exploited, many cultivators still flew out of the treasure ship for the sake of opportunity and arrived at the gathering place outside Bright City.

Yang Minrui was sent by Yang Qiangjing to sign a contract with them.

The contracting party is the Great Nai Empire.

It is impossible for these people to break the contract. Even if they reach the Nascent Soul stage, they cannot escape the fate of a dynasty.

Some troublemakers didn't want to be exploited by the Yang family, but by this time too many people had already compromised, and they had been completely divided.

After making a fuss for a while, the Yang family ignored them and had no choice but to accept it.

If they didn't pay, the Yang family wouldn't let them in.

The group of 251 cultivators eventually paid with spirit stones, and some even used treasures to settle their debts.

"Minyong, take them inside."

Yang Minyong held the yellow book that could unlock the legendary land, took it out, and placed it on the heads of everyone.

"Everyone should read this book!"

As the picture appeared, the people below couldn't help but read it aloud.

"White Granary"

Then, a yellow light burst forth from the book!

A tall, thin, dark figure appeared behind everyone, his whip binding them within it.

hum!
The yellow light dissipated, and all 251 Golden Core cultivators entered the legendary White Granary.

"So many people, and it's still not full? It seems this legendary place is going to open all at once."

Based on their current knowledge, those legendary places that open periodically often limit the number of people allowed to enter. For example, another legendary place they control, the Flowing Water Tribe, only has 30 slots available.

The four dynasties shared these slots equally, with the other three dynasties each receiving seven slots, while the Great Nai Empire received nine slots.

"Speaking of which, we're going to enter the Flowing Water Tribe next month. If things can't be finished here, who should go instead?"

Yang Qiangjing looked at Yang Minrui and Yang Minyong, who had been helping her run around these past few days, with some doubt on her face.

Because among the Yang family members outside, only the two of them are the most senior; the rest are just there to run errands for them.

Oh right, there are also two elders.

Yang Qianglin and Yang Qiangyuan didn't care about such things at all. While others were watching the excitement, they went to play cards and weren't drawn in.

If we really have to allocate spots, then we can only choose from these people.
"Is it a coincidence?"

As Yang Qiangjing recalled the events of the past few days, she felt that something was amiss.
"Well done, Xiao Jing! You've made a fortune again!"

Yang Genshuo breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Yang Qiangjing had handled the matter.

Just now, the Yang family received a total of approximately 75.3 mid-grade spirit stones, a considerable number.

Yang Qiangjing resolved the crisis and turned it into a resource.

The entire process, from confrontation and intervention to peace talks, was seamless and incredibly smooth.

Although the legendary land was eventually shared with others, fortunately, there was no danger in Bright City.

Yang Genshuo even believes that Yang Qiangjing had actually made this preparation long ago.

"Have you been paying attention to Yang Minrui lately, sir?"

"Him? I haven't paid much attention to him. But he seems to have been helping you stabilize the empire's order. Although his character might not be the best, his work ability is quite good. Why?"

"No, it's nothing. It's just that the situation is a bit out of control this time. I just don't think it's that coincidental."

"You suspect Yang Minrui is behind this?"

"It's hard to say, Ancestor. You can decide when you have time. He's very clever. He knows you're back and can see his every move, so he definitely won't give himself away."

"That's true. Actually, the Yang family descendants all know that I can see them. Even if we communicate with each other using our spiritual senses, I can't perceive every thought of theirs. I can only see their actions. So far, Yang Minrui's behavior has been quite normal. Maybe you're overthinking it."

"hope so"

"Alright, so many people have gone in. If this is a legendary place that can only be cleared once, the first person to clear it will likely receive the most valuable reward. I need to keep an eye on things inside."

"It's also possible that this legendary place will come to an end."

With Yang Qiangjing and the others stabilizing the situation outside, Yang Genshuo continued to watch the group inside who were trying to pass the challenges.

Besides Yang Zhu's group, many other groups also arrived in the county town.

Yang Min's group, Yang Qiangjin's group, and Yang Zhushuang's group.
Among them, Yang Min was the most decisive. He took the nine burdens and went underground, emerging from the ground in front of the city gate!

"Open the door! We are a grain transport crew delivering grain to the capital!"

"Open the door!"

"Let us in!"

Their shouts didn't get the soldiers on the city wall to open the gate; instead, they were shot at with several arrows.

The corpses behind them wailed and surrounded them.

Its mouth opened and closed as if it wanted to devour them.

One of the stronger corpses shouted, "The tyrannical ruler is cruel and tyrannical! Why are you still feeding him? Join us and become one of us! Let's overthrow this world together!"

"Join us or die!"

There's a talking zombie!
Yang Genshuo had just turned around when he saw this scene.

[Leader of the Corpse Flow]

Its attributes are similar to those of the Flowing Corpse, but it has some additional leadership skills, allowing it to command the Flowing Corpses.

After hearing the conversation, Yang Min pondered for a moment.
I don't quite understand.

"gone!"

"Tudun!"

Yang Min's skill in using earth magic was arguably the highest Yang Genshuo had ever seen. He slammed his hand on the ground, and a dust storm rose up on the battlefield!
After the dust storm subsided, Yang Min and his nine-person vehicle disappeared back into the woods.

No one discovered any trace of them.

"Sigh, on one side are infected corpses, and on the other side are stupid soldiers who shoot at us indiscriminately. It's hard to go either way."

Yang Min is highly skilled; he managed to break through the encirclement after navigating the circle.

It brought valuable information.

Yang Genshuo immediately relayed the news to the other teams.

Yang Zhu's sixth puzzle solver analyzed, "Even Lord Yang Min's strength couldn't force his way through, so we definitely have no chance either. Right now, I see two paths."

Yang Zhu: "Speak."

"The first thing is to find a way to get the soldiers on the city wall to let us in."

"The second option is to go directly with the leader of the zombies, accept his invitation, and see what happens."

"what?"

Yang Genshuo was surprised first.

Follow the corpses?

Isn't this insane?
These guys look like a bunch of man-eating monsters!
Just as Yang Genshuo was discussing with other teams how to break the deadlock, Yang made his move.
