The resources in the six storage bags weren't much. Besides the demon beast corpses they hunted themselves, they found three demon beast corpses in three of the storage bags.
Judging by their size, the three demon beasts were at most at the late stage of the first rank.
There were also so bottles and jars of pills, so labeled, so not labeled at all.
Apart from Tang Xin, who was quite knowledgeable in the dical Path, the rest were novices.
None of them recognized these pills, so they all let Huang Ye take them, to identify them himself when he got outside.
There were also quite a few spirit stones in the storage bags. Besides the five-elent spirit stones, there were a few other colored spirit stones.
The sizes of these spirit stones didn't differ much, and there were cutting marks on the surface of the stones.
Huang Ye classified them based on the five-elent colors: five tal-elent spirit stones, four wood-elent spirit stones, two water-elent spirit stones, six fire-elent spirit stones, and one earth-elent spirit stone.
The spirit stones with all attributes were the most nurous, totaling fifty-three pieces.
These spirit stones also varied in color depth; the deeper the color, the more mixed the spiritual energy contained within.
The best quality was a nearly transparent spirit stone.
None of them knew how cultivators distinguished the grades of spirit stones or their value.
Father Tang might know about this, but Huang Ye couldn't be bothered to ask. As long as he could distinguish the quality, he would naturally find out upon entering the Cultivation World.
Since everyone could absorb various elental attributes, Huang Ye simply divided the spirit stones equally, giving each person a share.
The won wanted Huang Ye to take more, but he refused.
Except for Su Wan, whose realm could be elevated, the other four were in a state of completion, unable to break through even by absorbing spirit stones.
Finally, Tang Xin decided that each person would keep a few spirit stones, and the rest would be given to Su Wan.
Su Wan was moved by Tang Xin's gesture. Although they were as close as sisters, Tang Xin's previous threatening words had subconsciously created a barrier.
Today, Tang Xin's actions as the elder sister completely dissolved that barrier in Su Wan's heart.
Besides the small sword Huang Ye had, there were two other items in the storage bag: a small golden hamr and a jade ruyi.
Like the small golden sword, everyone's divine sense couldn't connect with these two items.
Huang Ye naturally took the small sword, while Tang Xin handed the small hamr and jade ruyi to Su Wan.
Su Wan's realm was higher, and she had cultivated the Tongtian Xuanggong to the eighth level, while the others couldn't even cultivate to the seventh level.
The Tongtian Xuanggong didn't have a thod for using magical tools, and Huang Ye didn't know when he would return, so during this ti, Su Wan would explore them first.
There were also several jade slips, which, like the magical tools, couldn't be probed with divine sense.
"There must be restrictions inside these; we don't have a way to break them, so we definitely can't open them. I'll take these with ."
There was also a large pile of dicinal herbs. Tang Xin recognized so of them, but she didn't know half of them. Judging by the packaging, there weren't any good herbs inside.
Huang Ye gave all the herbs to Tang Xin, appointing her as the head of the sect's dical departnt.
So ores, tals, and more than a dozen talismans were also placed into Huang Ye's storage bag.
There was also an array disc inside, and the system indicated that it was related to the five elents.
The words tal, wood, water, fire, and earth were written on it, and Huang Ye sincerely admired the system's judgnt.
He also put the array disc into his storage bag.
After this encirclent, Huang Ye paid more attention to the Dao of Arrays.
He felt that the Dao of Arrays would be very helpful in dealing with enemies. If he encountered knowledge about the Dao of Arrays, he must learn it.
"Comrades, while I'm away from the sect, the managent must not beco chaotic. Now, I'll talk about the personnel arrangents."
"Tang Xin, you are the sect's financial director."
"What is a financial director?"
"It's like a bookkeeper. The sect's cultivation resources and worldly wealth are under your managent."
"Su Wan, you are the sect's technical director, managing the sect's cultivation affairs."
"Qing'er, you are the sect's administrative director, managing the sect's miscellaneous affairs and external relations."
"Yue'er, you are the sect's logistics director. You're ticulous, so you'll manage the sect's supplies."
"We also need a law enforcent director and a human resources director, but we'll decide on those when new mbers join."
The four won were bewildered by these fancy titles.
"Husband, it sounds like we're all officials, but we don't have a single subordinate."
"Don't worry, this is just the beginning. We'll develop as we see fit in the future."
"I'll prepare a complete sect developnt plan, and we'll execute it according to the plan."
"Alright, go ahead and do your thing."
"Comrades, this eting is adjourned. I've decided that before I leave, we'll have a dual cultivation session."
Applause erupted below!
The won were puzzled. Didn't they already agree on dual cultivation? Why ntion it again in the eting?
"I'll first reclaim the sect's office location."
"Qing'er, Yue'er, do you have anything important left at the mansion?"
"Nothing important, just so girlish things. We can buy new ones."
"Alright, then I won't go back to the small courtyard."
"Young Master, I want to visit ho," Yue'er said hesitantly.
"Okay, Qing'er, accompany Yue'er. Xiao Tang, give her a thousand taels of silver notes."
"Yue'er, for their safety, I can't go with you, and you shouldn't ntion anything about here."
"I understand, thank you, Young Master."
"Thank you for what? We're all family. Although you're now separated from them by the mortal and immortal realms, they're still your birth parents."
"Also, tell your father that if he doesn't gamble, I'll give the family twenty taels of silver every month; otherwise, not a single coin!"
"Got it."
Huang Ye left the Tang family and returned to the City Lord's mansion, but didn't see the City Lord, so he went to the City Lord's Palace.
After explaining his purpose, the City Lord imdiately approved.
Before leaving, Huang Ye also inford the City Lord of so good news: the thousand taels of silver for Qing'er and Yue'er each month were no longer needed.
The City Lord feigned politeness.
Seeing Huang Ye's disdainful look, the City Lord felt awkward.
After Huang Ye left, the Black-clothed Person appeared again.
"City Lord, he's becoming more disrespectful to you."
The City Lord's face darkened. "Fool, respect is worth nothing."
"He's a cultivator. A year ago, he relied on his master for support, but now he dares to challenge ."
"We're all martial artists, and achieving higher accomplishnts in martial arts is as difficult as climbing to the heavens. Their one year of cultivation is equivalent to our ten years of martial arts training."
"Don't provoke him unnecessarily. Give him whatever he wants. In fact, he's quite dissatisfied with my inaction."
"If he truly harbors a grudge, once he becos a great cultivator, destroying us would be child's play."
"I'm foolish."
"Foolish my foot. Don't think I don't know what you're thinking. You've always been hung up on Miss Xia and want revenge for her."
"If you want revenge, I support you, but don't drag into it, and you must declare your separation from the secret guards."
"City Lord, I was wrong."
"Alright, focus on your proper duties. The Bloodthirsty Demon escaped last ti, and you haven't caught many demons yet. I really don't know what your people are doing all day."
"Is it because Miss Xia is gone that you can't do anything?"
The Black-clothed Person wiped the sweat from his forehead. "Sir, I'll imdiately arrange for increased patrols."
"Get lost!" the City Lord snapped impatiently.
The Black-clothed Person bowed and left the hall, thinking as he walked, you old bastard, venting your anger on because your adopted son upset you.
Heh, that adopted son of yours will surely leave. I can't touch him, but I can deal with those won, can't I?
Killing Miss Xia took away our fun, and you expect us to swallow our anger? There's no such thing as a free lunch.
Those girls are truly exceptional, and that kid is really lucky.
Especially Su Wan, I heard that birthmark is gone, and she's now the number one beauty in Silver Moon City. Just thinking about it makes itch. Miss Xia is gone, so I'll use you as a substitute.
