The Tree World Descends into Douluo Continent

Chapter 97 Return to the clan
"Our restaurant accepts soul beast remains. Our main purpose is to seek benefits for civilian soul masters. This is a process of earning a reputation."

Li Xun looked at the somewhat plump bishop opposite him and said, "Some civilian soul masters who know how to be grateful will think of us."

At this point, Li Xun suddenly thought of the Spirit Hall's subsidies for spirit masters, and felt that this was useless. But then he thought again, his original purpose was not to make these spirit masters grateful to him. So let him be.

Shaking off his thoughts, Li Xun looked at Jerraf very seriously: "For this, you need to popularize the consequences of indiscriminate killing to the people, let the civilians resist the indiscriminate killing of soul beasts on their own initiative, and control the right of passage to the soul beast forest."

"Of course, we will also work on the pricing of recycled soul beast meat."

"How to price?"

“Soul beasts that are ten or a hundred years old should be treated as wild game. The price should be slightly higher than that of ordinary wild beasts. This will allow ordinary people to consider the pros and cons, and soul masters will not waste time trying to capture them.”

Li Xun pondered for a moment and said, "For high-level soul beasts over a thousand years old, the subsidies they can receive will be calculated based on their age and the level of the soul master they are at."

"Considering that there may be high-level soul masters who are desperate and wantonly hunt down thousand-year soul beasts to sell, the identities of these sellers need to be registered and restricted."

"If he refuses to cooperate, the restaurant will cancel his sales license. I don't think anyone would cause trouble on the turf of our two major forces, right?"

Gerald laughed: "I don't think there is such a madman."

"But what if someone imitates us and opens a restaurant? After all, there is no law prohibiting others from opening soul beast restaurants and hunting soul beasts."

The law is a constraint for ordinary people, but it is meaningless for high-level soul masters.

"Then your endorsement results and business warfare capabilities will be tested." Li Xun looked at Jerraf with a smile.

Concerning his own interests, Li Xun believed that the cardinal would be able to find a way by then.

These people may not be a deterrent to the top powerhouses on the continent, but to low- and middle-level soul masters and even civilians, they are like the masters of the sky.

"What about profit distribution?" Gerald asked tentatively.

"In the area under your jurisdiction, you will get 40% of the profits from all the stores and I will get 60%." Li Xun pointed upwards, "Don't think it's too little. I will give some of the profits to you upper management. Otherwise, maybe one day, your Spirit Hall will stop our cooperation."

"It's a lot, a lot." Jeralf was stunned for a moment, then a look of joy appeared on his face.

This is a business with a 200% profit. He had just looked at the map marked by Li Xun. There were no less than 20 businesses in his area, and this was just the one drawn on the spot.

With the financial resources of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect, once they open these restaurants, there may be other actions to come.

"Bishop Gerald, we have only made a preliminary decision on this matter today. Some details and external restrictions still need to be discussed."

Li Xun stood up and clasped his fists towards Jerraf: "But professional matters still need professionals to do them. By then, I may not be the one to discuss this with you."

When Ning Rongrong saw Li Xun was about to leave, she quickly stood up and stood beside him obediently.

"Haha, no problem. How about a quick meal before leaving? I've already made a reservation at a high-end restaurant, it would be a shame to cancel." Jeralf quickly stood up, patted his round belly and laughed.

"My Lord Bishop, I have to criticize you for this. From now on, our restaurant will be a real high-end restaurant. As a spokesperson, you can't go out to eat casually."

"Oh, you see, I forgot about this. I won't do it again. I won't do it again."

"Ha ha."

After leaving the Spirit Hall, Li Xun and Ning Rongrong strolled on the broad streets of Soto City. "Brother, I think your strategy of restricting spirit masters from hunting spirit beasts is a little unreliable." Ning Rongrong hugged Li Xun's arm and strolled on the street, thinking about a series of things about the restaurant.

"Hmm? When did you start to care about these things?" Li Xun was a little shocked and looked down at Ning Rongrong. Is this still the little princess of the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect who only thought about practicing and playing all day?

"You're annoying. I'm not small at all, okay?" Ning Rongrong held her head high and stood on tiptoe, trying to get her head above Li Xun's shoulders. "We are obviously the same age, why are you growing so fast?"

"It's really not small anymore." Li Xun squinted his eyes and looked Ning Rongrong up and down: "But you still need to work hard."

"Hmph! That's not serious." Ning Rongrong quickly changed the subject when it came to her own shortcomings: "You haven't answered my question yet."

"You sympathize with the soul beasts? Do you empathize with them?"

“Uh, no.”

"That's it. We have to ensure our own survival before we can consider other things."

"Huh? Our survival problem?" Ning Rongrong felt as if there were still many things she didn't know.

"So you didn't know? It's like this." Li Xun was a little surprised, then he remembered that Ning Rongrong was not present when he and his teacher discussed the Spirit Hall. He immediately briefly explained the matter.

"Isn't Haotian Sect the number one sect on the continent? How did it end up like this? Uh. Is the Spirit Hall so strong?" Ning Rongrong was a little shocked: "No wonder Tang Hao didn't dare to take Ah Yin back to the sect for refuge."

"Well, Tang Hao's decision was entirely his own. We can't blame the Spirit Hall for this."

"What if these bishops become more greedy in the future?"

"That's a matter for the future. Maybe by then we'll have the power to change the world."

With Jian Douluo leading Zhu Zhuqing, the journey to obtain the spirit ring went smoothly, and no unexpected situations occurred. After the four of them reunited, they only took a short rest before returning to the sect.

"What! Xiao Xun's soul power has already broken through level 40! And he also chose a 30,000-year-old soul beast as his fourth soul ring."

"Uncle Jian, why didn't you try to persuade him?" Ning Fengzhi didn't expect so many things to have happened in the one and a half months that Li Xun and the others had been away.

When he heard the names of Azure Bull Python and Titan Giant Ape, his heart suddenly stopped and his palms were instantly covered with sweat.

If these people were not sitting next to him intact, Ning Fengzhi felt that he didn't know what he would do.

"Xiao Xun! Aren't you being a little too extreme?"

Ning Fengzhi didn't know what he was feeling at the moment, so he could only persuade him: "With your talent, as long as you keep going step by step, you will definitely become a strong man on the continent. Why do you need to take such a risk?"

"Ahem, teacher, the risk this time was just an accident. Who would have thought that two hundred thousand year old spirit beasts would have nothing better to do than to run to the outskirts of the Star Dou Great Forest?"

Seeing that Ning Fengzhi was really nervous, Li Xun quickly calmed his teacher down and said, "As for absorbing the spirit ring, it is not a risk at all for me."

Li Xun immediately recounted the story of how he obtained the Blue Silver Emperor's right leg bone. Of course, this was an adapted version.

"You even ran to Tang Hao's lair to steal soul bones. Isn't this a risk?" Ning Fengzhi was so excited that his voice became louder.
