I'm in the world of cultivation, and I get a system for becoming a wealthy urban tycoon?

Ye Qianyuan and the others exchanged glances, their faces remaining calm and composed, but their hearts were in turmoil.

They suppressed their unease and their faces regained their warm smiles.

Ye Qianyuan stepped forward and cupped his hands in greeting to Lu Yang and Wang Da on the flying boat.

He was tall and imposing, wearing a dark blue brocade robe with mountain patterns and a black python scale belt around his waist. Between his thick eyebrows and tiger-like eyes, he naturally exuded the majestic aura of someone who commanded a top-tier power.

At this moment, Ye Qianyuan's dignified face was adorned with an extremely earnest smile: "This fellow Daoist possesses profound Daoist aura, inspiring awe in all who behold him. I never imagined that Qin Prefecture would have such a figure as you. Perhaps you are only one step away from the Nascent Soul stage? Truly, one can only envy others!"

Wang Da's expression remained calm. He merely cupped his hands slightly in return, then turned his gaze to Lu Yang standing in front of him and said in a light tone, "Fellow Daoist, you are too kind. My young master has something to discuss with you."

Upon hearing the title "Wang Da," Ye Qianyuan and the other Nascent Soul True Monarchs, as well as several guardian beasts, were all shaken.

Young Master...?!

The gray-robed powerhouse who made them feel extremely dangerous was actually a servant of this extraordinary white-robed youth?!

hiss……

What terrifying identity must this young man possess?!

Even the children of Nascent Soul stage experts don't receive this kind of treatment!

You should know that, given the cultivation and foundation that this gray-robed expert has shown, there is a very high chance that he will break through to the Nascent Soul stage in the future!

To make a seed of a Nascent Soul cultivator a servant?!

Looking across the entire Canglan Realm, which Nascent Soul cultivator would be willing to do such a thing?

Ye Qianyuan and his companions were inwardly shocked, but on the surface they became even more respectful.

They quickly bowed to Lu Yang, who was leading the group, their attitude even more respectful than before: "May I ask what business you have with us, young master? Please feel free to speak, and we will do our best without hesitation if it is within our power!"

Lu Yang smiled slightly, and the morning light fell on his plain white robe, gilding the hem with a layer of pale gold.

He stood on the deck, looking calm, and said, "It's nothing major, just something to settle a karmic debt."

Upon hearing the words "cause and effect," Ye Qianyuan and the others felt a chill run down their spines.

They were increasingly convinced that those four ignorant fools must have done something outrageous to anger this noble young master!

They exchanged a glance, both feeling somewhat uneasy.

So far, the young master's attitude has been relatively polite; at least he hasn't started any accusations or acted aggressively.

I just hope they don't ask for an exorbitant amount.

Otherwise, if it really comes to that, they will have no choice but to bite the bullet and resist.

Currently, the opposing side has two Nascent Soul Perfection experts, while their side has one Nascent Soul Perfection expert, plus a total of nine Nascent Soul stage cultivators and spirit beasts.

Even if a fight breaks out, they are not afraid.

Moreover, this is the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range, their territory.

The Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain has been operating here for tens of thousands of years, so it has a rich history.

The mountain-protecting formation, the contingency plans left by their ancestors, the ancient power sleeping deep within the mountains... these are the true sources of their confidence!

The only problem is that this young master can bring two Nascent Soul stage cultivators with him when he goes out. The power behind him is probably more terrifying than they can imagine.

If things really get out of control and attract the attention of some Nascent Soul stage expert, then Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain will be in real trouble.

At that time, whether the orthodox tradition can be preserved is also a question...

Thinking about this, their mood grew even heavier.

Ye Qianyuan took a deep breath, his smile somewhat forced, and asked, "Young Master, what is the cause and effect?"

Lu Yang smiled slightly and said calmly, "It's nothing serious."

He pointed to Ding Ran, who was huddled in the corner, acting like a decoration, and said with a smile, "My fellow Daoist here has a grudge against your sect's core disciple, Chen Chuanmo. I'll try to resolve it."

Ye Qianyuan and the others all turned to look at Ding Ran.

Ding Ran: "..."

His face was as pale as paper, and he was completely numb.

Good heavens!

He knew this young master was no ordinary person, and his personal intervention should offer some hope.

But he never expected the scale of the operation to be this large!

Ever since the Nascent Soul True Monarchs from Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain flew out from the depths of the mountain range, Ding Ran's brain has been in a state of malfunction.

For a trivial matter concerning someone at the Foundation Establishment stage, a full ten Nascent Soul True Monarchs actually appeared?!

What have I done to deserve this?!

At this moment, facing the gazes cast upon him by the Nascent Soul True Monarchs of Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain, he felt a tightness in his chest.

Even if the other party deliberately restrained their aura, their deep and unfathomable gaze alone was enough to make a Foundation Establishment cultivator breathless.

He forced a smile, a smile more like a grimace, and quickly straightened up, bowing respectfully: "Random cultivator Ding Ran... greets the True Lords of Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain!"

Ye Qianyuan and the others quickly nodded in response, their smiles gentle: "Young friend Ding Ran, there's no need for such formalities."

Just kidding, this young master came specifically for his business!

How dare they show any disrespect?!

In the past, a Foundation Establishment stage rogue cultivator like Ding Ran would never have even seen them, let alone attracted their attention.

However, with this young master present, even if Ding Ran were just a mortal, let alone a Foundation Establishment cultivator, they would still have to greet him with smiles.

Lu Yang didn't beat around the bush and briefly explained the situation: "It's like this, my fellow Daoist obtained a Nine Heavens Golden-Winged Roc egg, but was betrayed by a friend, and the news leaked out to Chen Chuanmo, a core disciple of your sect. Chen Chuanmo then sent four inner disciples from your sect to seize the Nine Heavens Golden-Winged Roc egg, which I happened to encounter. Fellow Daoist Ding Ran gave me the Nine Heavens Golden-Winged Roc egg, so this matter also involves me."

As they listened to Lu Yang's explanation, Ye Qianyuan and the others' expressions changed continuously.

As an old monster who could cultivate to the Nascent Soul stage, Lu Yang only said a few sentences, but they had already guessed the ins and outs of the whole matter with a high degree of accuracy.

For cultivators, competing for treasures is a fairly common occurrence.

After all, the resources in the cultivation world are ultimately limited. If an opportunity is presented to you, you may be able to make further progress if you seize it; if you miss it, it may become an insurmountable chasm.

The struggle between cultivators is ultimately a struggle for their future.

No one wants to be trapped in their current state and watch their lifespan run out day by day.

Of course, the vast majority of the competition is for unclaimed treasures.

Those who seize treasures that already belong to someone else have another name among cultivators: Calamity Cultivators.

The cultivation world has always had a clear attitude towards those who undergo tribulation.

If they are not discovered, it's fine, but once they are discovered, they will inevitably be hated by everyone.

Otherwise, if everyone becomes a cultivator facing tribulations and everyone feels insecure, then no one will need to cultivate.

The so-called cultivation is not about fighting to the death. Isn't the ultimate goal to achieve longevity and immortality?

Life-or-death battles are inherently extremely dangerous; a slight misstep can lead to death and the annihilation of one's cultivation, ultimately contradicting the ultimate goal of cultivation.

Moreover, the more people one kills, the heavier the karmic burden becomes, which is actually a burden for spiritual practice.

Of course, that's just theory.

When faced with an incomparably precious treasure, even a normally disciplined cultivator might not be able to resist the temptation once greed takes hold.

Even if their Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain can be considered a righteous sect, with so many disciples, how many of them can resist the temptation of the Nine Heavens Golden-Winged Roc Egg?

Even they themselves, when recalling those years of hard work and struggle, dare not say with certainty that they never touched anything that belonged to someone else.

The problem is, you just robbed it anyway.

If we don't get caught, everything will be fine.

You fucking managed to snatch such an important figure?!

That would not only put the entire Beast Mountain in an unjust position, but also drag it into danger!

Ye Qianyuan's face darkened, his gaze sweeping over the four disciples of Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain with a cold, sharp intensity. He said in a cold voice, "So that's how it is... Stealing someone else's treasured possessions, you are actually scum among my Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain disciples?! How are your actions any different from those of Tribulation Cultivators?! Do the four of you still remember the rules of my Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain?! As disciples of Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain, you have willingly degenerated into Tribulation Cultivators. According to the rules, your cultivation should be abolished and you should be expelled from the sect!"

His voice wasn't loud, but every word was like an ice pick, striking the hearts of those four disciples.

The four disciples of Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain paled in shock, their bodies involuntarily collapsing to the ground, trembling like leaves.

He then struggled to his feet, knelt on the ground and kowtowed repeatedly, his forehead hitting the spiritwood deck with a dull thud.

"Mountain Lord! Mountain Lord, we were wrong!"

"Mountain Lord, spare us! We were only doing this on the instructions of Senior Brother Chen Chuanmo!! We didn't do it willingly!"

"Mountain Lord! Mountain Lord! Fellow Daoist Ding Ran agreed to settle this matter yesterday! We haven't disgraced the sect!"

The four men wept uncontrollably, their voices hoarse and trembling.

If their cultivation is abolished, they will be nothing more than mortals with only a Foundation Establishment physique!

The path was completely severed!

The most terrifying thing is that after being expelled from the sect, ordinary people like them, who hold the wealth of inner disciples of the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain, will inevitably be targeted by a large number of cultivators.

Those cultivators watching them in the darkness will probably devour them completely, leaving not even bones, in just a few days!

To them, this was no different than killing them on the spot!

Lu Yang watched this scene calmly without saying a word.

Lu Yang was not surprised by Ye Qianyuan's actions.

The rules of the Golden Rainbow Sword Sect are similar.

To be honest, most righteous sects have similar attitudes toward their disciples becoming Tribulation Cultivators.

If we don't get caught, then everything is fine.

Once exposed, one must bear the consequences.

The reputation of a sect is built with the blood and rules of countless generations of predecessors, so it is impossible to let it be damaged because of the mistakes of a few disciples.
