Chapter 1835: Guest Minister

    

lack and white pieces clashed ceaselessly on the board.Only seeing the two players move quickly, going back and forth. In less than a breath, hundreds of moves had been made. Perhaps it was half a day...www.bbiquge.info, Human Race Garrison Commander!

Several days later.

Jiang Mo came again.

“My Lord, the current head of the Shangguan family, Shangguan Zong, wishes to meet with you.”

“Shangguan Zong…”

Shen Changqing remembered this person. He was the only divine monarch in the Shangguan family today.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

Since the fall of powerful figures like Shangguan Xuanzhen, Shen Changqing has paid little attention to the Shangguan family.

Past cooperation.

It's because the Shangguan family has that kind of foundation.

But now the Shangguan family has fallen, and Shen Changqing has not been in touch with them much.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

However.

Now that cultivators from the Shangguan family have arrived, he wouldn't turn them away.

"Let him in."

"Yes!"

Jiang Mo stepped back.

Not long.

Just then, a middle-aged monk walked in from outside. The moment he saw Shen Changqing, the other party immediately lowered his stance and bowed deeply.

“Shangguan Zong, from the Shangguan family, pays his respects to Hongshan Sect Master!”

"Master Shangguan, you are too kind."

Shen Changqing smiled faintly.

From Shangguan Zong's simple sentence, he could understand that the other party's intentions were not simple.

When he stood up straight, Shen Changqing said, "Please sit down, Head of the Shangguan Family."

"Greetings, Master Xie Hongshan!"

Only then did Shangguan Zong sit down as instructed.

Shen Changqing said: "Back then, this old man had some friendship with Senior Shangguan Xuan and Xinghe. Now that the world has changed, they have fallen in the ancient realm, and this old man has always regretted it."

But now that the head of the Shangguan family has taken over, reviving the Shangguan family is just around the corner.

"The sect master's words are too heavy!"

"As for Shen Changqing's words, Shangguan Zong had a few moments of secret joy in his heart, but he didn't show it. His face was filled with sorrow as he said, 'The fall of the Xuanzhen Ancestor has left my Shangguan family depleted by seven to eight parts. Now, many forces are eyeing us hungrily, and I am walking on thin ice in my actions. Fortunately, the Shangguan family does have some history with the Qingzong, which is why they dare not act rashly. However, I also understand that the Qingzong is the Qingzong, and the Shangguan family cannot rely on the Qingzong's name to survive forever.'"

Therefore, my arrival this time represents the will of all the cultivators from the Shangguan family. We hope to have the opportunity to serve the Qingzong!

In the end, Shangguan Zong stood up again.

He didn't beat around the bush.

I need help.

If you want something, you have to be humble.

The current situation of the Shangguan family is obvious to all who are not fools.

Rather than being coy, it would be better to openly admit it. This way, there might still be a sliver of hope for relying on the Qingzong.

Before Shen Changqing could answer...

Shangguan Zong again passed a storage ring to the other party.

“This is the Shangguan family's heart, please accept it with a smile, Sect Master!”

Shen Changqing calmly accepted the storage ring, his divine sense falling into it. With ease, he shattered the restrictive power and saw everything inside clearly.

Nether Spirit Stone!

A plethora of Nether Spirit Stones!

When Shen Changqing saw these Nether Spirit Stones, his expression also moved somewhat.

Shangguan Zong said, "This is two million top-grade Nether Spirit Stones, and it is also the limit that our Shangguan family can come up with. I only hope that Qingzong can give the Shangguan family a chance."

Here, I swear that the Shangguan family will forever follow the Qingzong.

As soon as his voice fell.

Shen Changqing did not speak, the hall was silent.

Shangguan Zong lowered his head, waiting for the other party's reply.

Time passes little by little.

>

The Shangguan family, too, was filled with unease.

>

For a long time.

Shen Changqing put the storage ring into his inner world, then took out an identity token, slightly modified its function, and handed it to the other person.

This is a guest token of my Qingzong. With this token, you become a guest of our Qingzong and are exempt from the sect's rules and regulations, but also do not enjoy the benefits of being a member.

Should any other force target the Shangguan clan, you may present this guest envoy token. Should you encounter any troubles that cannot be resolved, you may also bring this token to Qingzong for assistance.

But it is important to remember that the Shangguan family's troubles are self-inflicted, and Qingzong will not intervene.

Please note that I cannot see any content within the " >>" brackets. If you have text you'd like translated, please provide it directly!

In addition, from today onwards, the revenue of all industries owned by the Shangguan family will be converted into corresponding Netherworld Spirit Stones annually, with three out of every ten being transferred to my hands.

"I understand!"

Shangguan Zong tightly held the guest envoy token, his face filled with gratitude.

What kind of return is 30%

Compared to the downfall of the Shangguan family, don't even talk about a 30% return; even if it were 50%, he would agree without hesitation.

Shen Changqing's words meant that the Qingzong had already accepted the Shangguan family.

With Qingzong as their backing, the Shangguan family would find it much easier to conduct themselves in the future.

If other forces want to make a move against the Shangguan family, they only need to produce Qingzong's guest envoy token.

This is the only token.

... is enough to awe all.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

In this situation, if one still dares to act against the Shangguan clan, it would be tantamount to provoking the entire Qingzong. The Shangguan sect believes that at present, no one in Guhuang dares to offend Qingzong.

>

Unless.

There are other top powers from the Kyushu region stationed there.

However.

Even if those powerful forces were to arrive.

They may not necessarily tear up their face with the Qingzong.

After all, a strong dragon doesn't suppress a local snake. Although Qingzong may not have many powerful figures on the surface, with just their Sect Master alone, they are enough to suppress the situation.

Although the Shangguan family paid two million high-grade Netherworld spirit stones and 30% of the subsequent industry's revenue to obtain this token, it was completely worthwhile in the eyes of Shangguan Zong.

“On behalf of the entire Shangguan family, I would like to express our gratitude to the Sect Master!”

"Head of the Shangguan Family, you needn't be so courteous. We are merely fulfilling our respective needs. The Shangguan Family is also an ancient family, hailing from Upper Soul State. Its decline is merely temporary."

"But this seat hopes to see the day when the official families regain their former glory!"

Shen Changqing smiled faintly.

Upon hearing this, Shangguan Zong's face became even more grateful.

Then.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

This is the one who has departed.

Seeing Shangguan Zong leave, Shen Changqing took out the storage ring again and said with a faint smile, "As expected of an ancient family, I underestimated them a bit at first."

What's called decline is only relative. In the eyes of ancient powers, these ancient clans are still high and unattainable.

Back then, when Shen Changqing destroyed the ancient barren sacred land, he only obtained a mere hundreds of thousands of Netherworld Spirit Stones from the treasury of the ancient barren sacred land.

Those spirit stones.

It was all of the ancient and desolate Holy Land.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Now, Shangguan Zong takes out two million top-grade Nether Spirit Stones without batting an eyelid. Just this alone is enough to completely overshadow the ancient Guhuang Sacred Land of old.

Besides.

The Shangguan family couldn't possibly be so honest as to pour their entire family fortune into it and hand over all the Netherworld Spirit Stones.

Two million top-grade Nether Spirit Stones.

In Shen Changqing's view, it might only occupy half of the Shangguan family's current territory, or even less than half.

However.

None of this matters.

The fact that the Shangguan family could come up with so many Netherworld Spirit Stones at once speaks volumes about their sincerity.

It is obvious.

Shangguan Zong understood the current situation very well and knew what the Shangguan family had to face, so he was able to make such a decisive decision.

“Although Shangguan Zongxiu's cultivation is average, he acts decisively. Under the leadership of such a strong figure, the Shangguan family might truly have a chance to recover some of its vitality.”

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Shen Changqing pondered to himself.

As for leading the entire Shangguan family to glory, that's not something an ordinary God Sovereign could accomplish.

In order for the Shangguan family to truly recover, at least one divine emperor needs to emerge.

Shaking head.

Shen Changqing no longer paid attention to the affairs of the Shangguan family.

The other party took out two million top-grade Nether Spirit Stones, and in exchange for the Azure Sect's protection, they offered 30% of their annual profits each year. Shen Changqing had no reason to refuse.

> On the other side.

Leaving the city lord's mansion.

Shangguan Zong arrived at a strange mansion. This was the property purchased by the Shangguan family in Qingcheng.

For the Shangguan family, purchasing industry in Qingcheng would not be a difficult task at all.

Even though Qingcheng attracts many cultivators now, causing house prices to rise significantly, the so-called house prices are just a drop in the bucket for the Shangguan family.

Entering the mansion.

Elder Shangguan Xiong and several other elders had been waiting for a long time.

"Master, how did it go"

An elder anxiously asked.

Shangguan Zong remained silent, only taking out an identity token. The front clearly bore his name, Shangguan Zong, while the back simply read "Qingzong."

"Guest advisor token... The head of the household has joined the Azure Sect"

The elder who spoke was taken aback.

What's up

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Their own master went out on a trip and came back as an guest of another sect

Shàngguān Zōng smiled and said, "Things are done. I've taken on the title of guest scholar at Qīngzōng. This way, I am not bound by Qīngzōng's rules nor do I receive any benefits as a Qīngzōng cultivator. It's just a name."

Let me know if you'd like to translate any other text!

With this token of identity, my Shangguan family is considered under the protection of Qingzong.

If a powerful enemy arrives, simply presenting this identity token will be enough to solve many problems. If there are truly any issues that cannot be resolved, this token can also be used to seek aid from the Qingzong sect.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

The only problem is that the trouble I, from the Shangguan family, provoked was not something Qingzong would intervene to solve.

Hearing Shangguan Zong's words, all the elders were overjoyed.

Shangguan Xiong was even more excited and said, "With this token, our Shangguan family can rest assured!"

"Although this is the case, according to our agreement, my Shangguan family's annual profits from all properties must be supplied to Qingzong at a rate of 30%."

Shangguan Zong's words caused the smiles on the faces of the other elders to stiffen slightly.

A moment later.

Shangguan Xiong shook his head and said, "The Qingzong sect is truly a large and powerful organization. Wanting them to protect the Shangguan family with just two million top-grade Yin-Yang Spirit Stones is ultimately unrealistic."

Although 30% of the industrial profits are quite a lot, it's not enough to damage the family foundation. We gave what we gave.

Moreover, with this layer of vested interest involved, should my Shangguan family ever encounter an irresolvable predicament, I needn't worry that Qingzong would turn a blind eye.

In the long run, this trade will not be a loss for my Shangguan family!

As the head of the family, how could Shangguan Xiong not understand the stakes involved.

The treatment that the family put in was completely insignificant compared to the benefits they received. Hearing Shangguan Xiong's words, the remaining elders also looked relieved.
