The crazy uncle-master went on a killing spree, and the whole sect was burned to death!

Chapter 858 I definitely won't join!

The group was initially hesitant, but thinking that joining first might bring some preferential treatment, they decided to come together after some consideration.

My initial unease turned into a sense of belonging when I saw the brand-name item in my hand.

The nameplate in his hand was almost identical to the sect's token he had when he descended to the lower realm.

The name and identity are written on it; it is a symbol of status and belonging.

But since their ascension, they have lost their own identity badges and their place of belonging, and can only wander aimlessly in the immortal realm every day, with no place to call home.

Looking at the token now, the group had very mixed feelings.

Wen Shu ignored their feelings and directly took out five storage bags and handed them to them.

"These are cultivation supplies. Our Wuhai Gang will distribute them free of charge for the first month, but starting from the next month, you must complete tasks and exchange them for supplies using task points."

"And these are the tasks you can currently complete, such as planting spiritual herbs, refining medicine, and crafting weapons..."

"At worst, we can gather herbs from outside to exchange for resources."

These were the initial rules they set; at first, the only thing that could attract these people was elixirs.

Moreover, the current scope of tasks is relatively narrow, and planting medicinal herbs is the most suitable method at present.

If the island does expand in the future, then we can consider more in-depth approaches.

Now we can only take it one step at a time.

When they saw the medicine bottle in their hands, they were stunned for a moment, and then became excited.

Turns out there really are resources available!

The group immediately smiled and nodded, then took the mission map and began to study it.

"Go back and promote us more!"

"Supplies are on a first-come, first-served basis; once they're distributed, they're gone!"

She smiled mysteriously, then took the register and turned to enter the courtyard.

The five people excitedly opened the medicine bottle and found that it contained more than a dozen elixirs, including elixirs for replenishing immortality and elixirs for restoring youth, and each elixir was of the highest quality.

The group was overjoyed and quickly packed their things, then left happily.

Soon, the entire island knew about the free resources offered for registering, and the cultivators on the island were all in a dilemma.

At the island lord's residence, Wen Shu was also reporting the situation to Song Wanning.

"Only five people came today, fewer than I expected!"

She was somewhat disappointed. She had thought these people would be more eager to join, since they were all currently homeless and wouldn't it be good to have someone to rely on?

Only a handful of people showed up.

Song Wanning nodded, "That's right, there are still five people. I thought none of them would come."

She joked around in a good mood, not in a hurry at all.

Why aren't you in a hurry at all?

Wen Shu hadn't originally planned anything, but after the plan was actually implemented, she saw a glimmer of hope.

He longed to return to the glorious days of the lower realm.

Naturally, they hoped that Song Wanning's Wuhai Gang would be successful and grow bigger and bigger in the future.

Song Wanning raised an eyebrow slightly, "These people are used to being free and undisciplined. Without sufficient benefits, they naturally won't choose to join our Wuhai Gang. This is perfectly normal."

"We need to offer some incentives so that people can gradually develop a sense of belonging and cohesion once they join. We have to take it one step at a time."

"And those people will come slowly, there's no rush."

From the very beginning, Song Wanning naturally never intended to make these people immediately pledge their undying loyalty to the Wuhai Gang; that would be too unrealistic.

Therefore, at the beginning, we can only use incentives to let them taste the benefits little by little, while at the same time developing a sense of belonging and a sense of honor in joining the Wuhai Gang.

All of this requires gradually strengthening the Wuhai Gang. Then, just like joining those major sects, they will be proud to be part of the Wuhai Gang, and its cohesion will naturally increase.

All of this must not be rushed.

Wen Shu realized he had acted too hastily and nodded.

"Hopefully, the upcoming publicity campaign will yield some results."

...

After the five people returned, their suspicious behavior was discovered.

Because their tokens would light up as they passed by everyone, making them impossible to conceal.

It might even pop up a message that clearly states the name and gang information.

The group had intended to do it secretly, but they couldn't hide it at all, and their faces turned green.

When the people around saw the token, they were all very surprised and immediately gathered around.

"Kids, you guys have joined the Wuhai Gang?"

"Really? The notice said there would be benefits after joining. What good things did you get?"

"Exactly, exactly. That Wuhai gang sounds like they're just trying to scam people into working. Only a fool would go there. And what kind of benefits do they offer? Who would be willing to give up their resources for everyone?"

The previous island owner only provided a space for everyone to cultivate; to get even a little bit out of him was a pipe dream.

Therefore, no one took the contents of the notice seriously.

Upon hearing this, the five people exchanged glances, and remembering Wen Shu's instructions, they took out the pills.

"This contains your first month's allowance for joining the Wuhai Gang. It's completely free. And like any sect, the Wuhai Gang also has missions to complete, but food and lodging aren't included..."

Then they took out the task sheet and showed it to everyone.

The cultivators, who had initially thought it impossible, suddenly widened their eyes in astonishment.

"Are you lying? Do you really have elixirs?"

"Hiss, they're all top-grade elixirs..."

Everyone's eyes widened even more; the value of these pills on the island far exceeded that of those outside the island by more than ten times.

If it really was released by the Wuhai Gang, then...

Many of the cultivators began to get restless.

"Are you saying that joining will get you all these things?"

Someone asked curiously.

"No, they said the quantity is limited, first come, first served, and once it's all gone, there won't be any left for those who join later!"

The five of them truthfully relayed Wen Shu's words to everyone. Although they did not want these people to fight over resources, they were afraid of offending the island lord if they did not promote the message properly, so they all chose to tell the truth.

The moment these words were spoken, the surroundings fell silent for a second, and then someone shouted, "Tch, they really can't take a joke!"

"First come, first served? Isn't this a trap deliberately set? They'll just tell you it's all gone when you get there!!"

"Exactly, if you can't produce anything, don't pretend. You're really making a fool of us!"

"I will absolutely not go. The Wuhai Gang is just trying to control us. I want freedom, and I don't want to be anyone's lackey!!"

"That's right, that's right, us too!!"

"Let's go, let's go, I can't be bothered to listen to their bragging!"

As they talked, they dispersed, grumbling and cursing.

The five people were left standing there, staring blankly.

"Anyway, we've already promoted it; if they don't believe us, so be it!"

"That's right! Now that we have the pills, let's go back and cultivate quickly, and then go get our missions!"
