Chapter 1489: Chapter 0855 I’m Not at Ease _2 Chapter 1489: Chapter 0855 I’m Not at Ease _2 Huang Liuyan said, “Everything is fine with the estate. I have already drawn up the reward list, it just needs your review and approval. In addition, the profits from the Fiery Cloud Secret Realm are routinely delivered every month by the National Master Manor. Last month’s have already been delivered, and this month’s will take a few more days.”
The profits from the Fiery Cloud Secret Realm indeed arrived on schedule every month from the National Master Manor; Yi Xuwen was quite authentic in this regard. However, the proceeds from this, after setting aside the necessary expenses for the estate, were already converted into spirit stones as per Qi Tian’s instructions during his closed-door cultivation and were all spent, leaving not much behind.
Qi Tian said, “Regarding the reward list, originally it was just sothing I ntioned offhand. I won’t personally handle this matter; it will still trouble you, Sister Liu Yan, to take care of it. Be confident and bold in your actions. If you find it troubleso and it hinders your cultivation, you can select soone else to specifically take charge of it. Don’t worry about any outcry the published list may cause; as long as it broadly maintains fairness and justice and takes good care of the outstanding disciples who are well-disposed towards us, that will be fine. If anyone starts chattering or criticizing, then tell , and I will deal with it.”
Huang Liuyan nodded and said, “I will arrange everything appropriately. I’ll deal with what I can to avoid bothering you with such matters, so as not to disrupt your cultivation.”
Qi Tian then looked toward Gao Jini, who quickly said, “The developnt of our secret realm is going rather well, and it has officially started. However, due to limited manpower in the initial stages, the progress isn’t very fast. Yet, it’s still guaranteed that we will earn five hundred thousand middle-grade spirit stones annually.”
Qi Tian raised an eyebrow. He had gone through so of the National Master Manor’s accounts before and knew that for a second-tier power in Wanjie City like the National Master Manor, the annual net profit ranged from ten million to fifteen million middle-grade spirit stones, and the best they ever earned was no more than sixteen million.
Five hundred thousand middle-grade spirit stones might not seem a lot, but compared to the earnings of the National Master Manor, one could tell it was a decent amount. However, such a sum represented only a steady trickle and would not make Qi Tian rich overnight, thus clearly failing to support the terrifying consumption of his cultivation.
Scratching his head, Qi Tian asked, “Do either of you know where to find opportunities to make a large amount of money in a short ti?”
Looking perplexed, Huang Liuyan asked, “Why are you inquiring about this sort of information? Haven’t you told before that you are not lacking in cultivation resources? Now, it sounds like you’re short on money. Is it by a large margin? Do I need to reduce the estate’s expenses? If the shortfall isn’t too great, I can subsidize a bit.”
Qi Tian waved his hand and said, “I’m practically penniless now, it’s a substantial shortfall. But you don’t have to worry about it; I’ll figure sothing out. There’s no need for you to dip into your own pockets or cut the estate’s expenses. I still have so cultivation resources. What I’m looking for now is an opportunity that can provide with a large number of cultivation resources all at once.”
Huang Liuyan and Gao Jini exchanged a look, both with expressions of concern. Clearly, they found it hard to believe Qi Tian’s words.
With no other choice, Qi Tian said, “Can’t you two sisters look at and notice anything at all? For instance, have you noticed that I’ve beco handsor, more charismatic?”
Gao Jini approached Qi Tian with more reverence than familiarity; even though Qi Tian also called her “sister,” she wouldn’t dare to interact with him the way Huang Liuyan did. Only Huang Liuyan had a closer relationship with Qi Tian. She gave him a glance and said, “Handso? I haven’t really noticed that. But you seem to have grown taller, and you have a beard now.”
Qi Tian, with a face full of black lines, said, “My dear sister, haven’t you noticed that I have reached the peak of the Gold Core Stage? Breaking through to the Nascent Soul Stage is just a step away.”
Upon hearing this, both Huang Liuyan and Gao Jini looked at Qi Tian with incredulous gazes. They both knew the state Qi Tian was in before his closed-door cultivation; he hadn’t even reached the late stage of the Gold Core Realm. How much ti had passed for him to suddenly reach the peak of the Gold Core Realm? This rate of cultivation was heaven-defying.
Seeing their disbelief, Qi Tian, without further words, slightly released the aura he had been concealing. The aura was confined within the guest room, not spreading outside. Even so, the two won clearly sensed Qi Tian’s vast and profound aura, like a deep, fathomless sea.
Neither woman was inexperienced; they had each co into close contact with cultivators at the peak of the Gold Core Realm more than once. They imdiately assessed that the aura emanating from Qi Tian was not sothing that an ordinary Gold Core Realm Peak cultivator could radiate. If other peak Gold Core Realm cultivators had auras akin to ordinary lakes, then Qi Tian’s was like Dongting Lake—a gigantic lake, vast and limitless.
The reason the two won were sure that Qi Tian was still in the Gold Core Realm was that they understood the essential difference between the Gold Core Realm and the Nascent Soul Realm. The auras of the two were different, easily distinguishable.
Even with the evidence before their eyes, the two won still found it hard to believe that Qi Tian could have reached the peak of the Gold Core Realm in such a short ti. Qi Tian was so young—such a young cultivator at the peak of the Gold Core Realm was unheard of for them. Even those legendary figures they’d heard of in the past didn’t seem as defiant of the heavens as Qi Tian.
