Yue Guanyun was not annoyed either, and nodded slightly: "I was wrong this time! Originally, he wanted to be the first to salute, but he did not expect Qin Lie to be so rude. It seems that only by suppressing the aura of Qin Lie and the Heavenly Demon Sect can we talk about other things. "

"That's the truth!"

Xiongba's thick eyebrows pricked up in anger as he laughed loudly, with a hint of craziness: "According to what I know, there aren't many Beast Crystal left in the Heavenly Demon Sect treasury. By returning empty-handed this time, it would certainly dry up its treasury. Even though Qin Lie had previously made a huge profit, taking out Beast Crystal s to support the Heavenly Demon Sect, to quell the anger of the masses. However, it could not stop its subordinate Cities from leaving! The Heavenly Demon Sect has stood proud for ten thousand years, but in a single night, it could collapse! "

At this point, Xiongba's tone changed again. Although he was still smiling, his eyes were filled with cold intent: "But you two, please do not underestimate this person. This Qin Lie might not be able to practice martial arts. It was a technique that was worthy of being used against powerful enemies on the outside and evil on the inside. However, it was a highly intelligent person. You and I both know what kind of person Qin Chuan is. Xiong Tu, I have sparred with you and me several times. Even though we had more losses than losses, we are first-rate figures in Heavenly Dragon Empire. That Qin Chen and that Qin Shiyuan were also not someone an ordinary person could be compared with. However, they had all been annihilated by Qin Lie in one night's time, be it killing or capturing. In fact, the Heavenly Fox tribe had fallen. This person's abilities can clearly be seen. "

Within the palace, both Yue Guanyun and Snow Wind City had silent expressions, looking extremely solemn.

Although he didn't speak, he clearly understood Xiongba's words.

Snow Wind City slightly nodded and said, "There were too many rumours regarding the change in Heavenly Demon Sect that day, making it difficult to differentiate the truth from the false. The eyes and ears of the three of us, who were placed in Heavenly Demon Sect, were actually all killed. Furthermore, after he ascended the throne, several decrees, all of them were majestic and magnanimous. If he continued to hold on, he would definitely be able to greatly increase the power of his Heavenly Demon Sect. Perhaps it was just as the rumors said, he was unable to practice martial arts. However, if he was given another year or two, he might truly be able to grasp Heavenly Demon Sect and make all the heroes of the Heavenly Demon Sect bow their heads in a bid to serve him. However, it's also because we know our abilities that the three of us are joining forces this time. "

His tone changed again as he spoke in a flattering tone: "No matter how intelligent that Qin Lie is, he can't be compared to Brother Yue under the sea of clouds. This time, we can only gather five hundred Cloud Ship and Qiongshan City together at most. Not more than a thousand. With the combined strength of three cities, the number of ships in our ship surpasses the number of Heavenly Demon Sect by a hundred times. With Brother Yue in command, we will definitely be able to accomplish nothing on our Heavenly Demon Sect and return empty-handed. "

Hearing this, Yue Guanyun laughed conceitedly, and was not humble at all. His gaze flickered slightly: "I have an idea, since this Qin Lie doesn't know what's good for him. He might as well order more people to ask those dog cities in Heavenly Demon Sect if they came! This time, our three cities are hunting together, will they come or not? Do you want to follow Heavenly Demon Sect and eat nothing at all, or do you want to accompany us to hunt Demon Beast? "

The tyrannical Snow Wind City couldn't help but look at each other with a hint of a smile in its eyes. Yue Guanyun's words perfectly matched the intentions of the two.

At the same time, within the Hongcheng that was seven hundred kilometers away. Qin Lie, who was viewed as a 'strong enemy' by the three of them, had already angered Lv You to the point of insanity.

The first thing Qin Lie did after that day was to pour out a large amount of Gold Silver Beast Crystals and buy countless precious artifacts. Hire a few merchants from the Rainbow City. He had decorated his own bedroom with incomparable luxury. Then, he invited a few profound masters who were skilled in setting up the formation to set up a constant temperature formation in this small palace. It was like spring all year round and used a total of seven to eight hundred Rank Four beast crystals.

It caused Lv You's face to turn pale from the pain. With this money, one could recruit close to a hundred Sky-high Fighter s, but they would be squandered like this by Qin Lie.

No matter how he tried to persuade her, Qin Lie just ignored him and did not care about him at all. If it were not for the fact that he was still memorizing Qin Wuya's past relationship with him, and because he still held some hope for Qin Lie, he would have immediately left.

Other than giving daily supplies to the hundreds of Cloud Ship, there was nothing else that they could do. He had to think about it every day so that he could lead Qin Lie on the right path.

Chu Yunlan, who was accompanying them, was somewhat unable to watch any further. Even though she was an outsider, she felt that Qin Lie was too extravagant.

"I have heard that the kings of the world are always thrifty and honest. Does Monarch know that this Fourth Rank Beast Crystal can allow five hundred families to live comfortably for ten years? The wealth that the Monarch spends on decorating palaces can be used to support an army of ten thousand for one year? "

Duan Yun agreed as well. "Lady Yunlan is right."

Qin Lie was speechless, "Don't speak nonsense if you don't understand! If I don't spend my Beast Crystal, do I have to put them in my own bag to grow bad? The rich people of Heavenly Demon Sect are not luxurious, they spend a lot of money, where did the poor people get their livelihood from? "

Chu Yunlan was stunned and looked at Qin Lie as if he was looking at a weirdo. Coincidentally, Lv You also walked in, and after hearing that, he was also stunned.

This was the first time he had heard of such a thing. Could it be that he was diligent and thrifty, or that he was wrong?

Not only the two of them, Duan Yun was also confused.

The rich were not extravagant, they spent a lot of money, where did those poor people get the chance to live? These early words sounded absurd, but after careful consideration, they seemed to make sense.

However, Lv You was only stunned for a moment, then let out a cold snort, as his eyes revealed fury: "Monarch is spouting nonsense! The rich were extravagant in order to raise their citizens. What a mystery! There might be some truth to that rule of the world. However, on the eastern side of the Cloud Continent, when the Cities was in a chaotic battle, they were on the path to death! One must know that the resources and manpower in this world were always limited. The more one used here, the less one would use there. Right now, my Heavenly Demon Sect is surrounded by strong enemies. This is the cultivation method of my sect. Pour all the resources into the army! Like the Monarch, they split up the forces of the people. If the Children in the country were to go and work for those rich and powerful families, how many people would still be willing to join the army? "

It was obvious that he was extremely angry, as Lv You's beard trembled slightly. "It's fine if Monarch's personality is extravagant, but why do you say such words that disturb the hearts of men? Did this mean that once the words were spoken, the country would be shaken? The country's aristocrats and merchants followed suit. The simple wind that Monarch left behind, will definitely disappear without a trace! "

This time, it was Qin Lie who was quiet. Being questioned by this chain of questions, what he spoke of was an indescribable feeling of stifling. He thought to himself that this Old Man really had some true talents and talents. His excuse had been exposed so quickly.

But seeing Lv You's righteous look, Qin Lie did not know why, but he felt unsettled, and was not willing to be refuted.

He narrowed his eyes and countless thoughts flashed through his mind. He even activated the Great Firmament Technique and quickly calculated the results.

To the side, Duan Yun let out a light breath. The Prime Minister was smart, she said. How could such extravagance become reasonable? Qin Lie was speaking nonsense to fool others.

Just as he was pondering, he suddenly heard Qin Lie laugh softly: "Prime minister, don't be angry! Qin Lie only had one sentence to ask the Prime Minister. I wonder how much food the people produce in an acre of land in the last two years? " As he spoke, he picked up a bear paw from the table and started chewing on it.

Lv You raised his white brows, wishing that he could flip the table. He could only endure and answer: "Last year, one mu of food was four stones, this year is still not the time to collect food. However, according to my estimation, it should be around four stone and two battle. "

As he spoke these words, Lv You's gaze shrunk a little, as if he had thought of something, and a look of deep thought appeared on his face.

"Four Stones, four Stones, two Stones, it's about this number. I still remember the year before last, it was three stones and eight fights for a mu of grain, right? It's not only the Heavenly Demon Sect that is so, the other nations are also the same, right? "

Seeing that Lv You did not deny his words, Qin Lie nodded his head, "Then, with Prime Minister's experience, you must know that the valley slut harmed the farmers."

"Of course! The more rice there is, the greater the supply will be, and the lower the price of food will naturally be. "

Lv You's expression, was already somewhat grave and ashamed.

The food production in Heavenly Demon Sect was gradually increasing, why had he not noticed this phenomenon? Fortunately, he had discovered the matter early, or else a great disaster would have definitely occurred.

Chu Yunlan thought about it for a moment and then couldn't help but be moved.

"If this food production cannot be sold, then naturally, the oil and salt clothing and pottery are also not easy to trade for. As for the farmers of this world, they did not learn martial arts. If they were unprepared for a while, most of them would have no place to earn a living. Prime Minister, tell me, is that true? "

The entire chamber was silent for a moment. Qin Lie laughed inwardly, then continued to ask: "Does the Prime Minister know, that in the recent years, there are roughly the number of Demon Beast in the fields outside the city? is it decreasing year by year, or is it growing? "

Lv You's face was ashen, but he could not not not help but answer: "I do not know the exact number. The only thing I know for sure is that since this year, the Demon Beast have been hurting people, for more than 4300 years, which is three times more than in the past. "

Qin Lie was overjoyed, he knew that he had already completely grasped the situation: "Then how many of the things that I am eating right now came from fertile land, and how many more, come from the wilderness? How many of the artifacts that were used for this came from the Demon Beast? "

Lv You looked over, only to see that on the table, most of the ingredients were wild game, and the rest were also from the sea of clouds.

Although the decorations here were luxurious, there was indeed a large portion that came from Demon Beast s.

The same was true of the thermostatic formation.

"The merchants of this world are famous, and after they obtain the money, they have nowhere to use it. Most of them can only store and store it. But those Beast Crystal s, if unable to circulate in the outside world. And how can he be stronger than my? And how can it flourish in my sect's martial arts? "

When he heard till here, Lv You already understood Qin Lie's intentions, and could not help but perspire coldly, speechless.

Qin Lie laughed even more coldly, and asked again with a firm voice: "Since that's the case, then what's wrong with it?"

Lv You's entire person, with a constantly changing expression, stood still in his original position. Xiao Yan did not speak for a long time. When he opened his mouth again, he bent down and spoke in a deep voice.

"This subject, Lv You understands! After that, they would have to encourage hunters and reduce the number of farmers in order to clear out the Vicious Beasts in the fields. Monarch has seen the world, killing countless of birds with one stone, it is your servant's fault. Please forgive my rudeness! "

After he finished speaking, he bowed again. With an incomparably forlorn expression, he exited Qin Lie's chamber. He had actually forgotten his purpose for coming to find Qin Lie this time, and left this place soullessly far away.

Looking at Lv You's back figure, Qin Lie's originally slightly complacent mood suddenly disappeared without a trace. Deep in his heart, he instead felt a bit guilty.

This time, he had indeed overdone it. He was already a few decades old, but he seemed to have become a lot more gentle. However, his competitive nature had not changed at all.

Then, he muttered to himself thoughtfully: "This Lv You, if he meets an enlightened Monarch, he will definitely become a wise man."

Originally, he had no other choice but to use it on the person.

His words were barely audible, but Liang Bing, who was at the side, could hear him clearly. Immediately, he revealed a doubtful look: "Prime Minister Lu is obviously a wise man. Ever since Monarch invited him back, our Heavenly Demon Sect has been rising day by day. The Monarch was definitely an enlightened king, and Prime Minister Lu had never praised anyone, even the Monarch had been scolded by him. However, ever since I ascended the throne, I have heard the Prime Minister praise you twice. "

Qin Lie laughed and thought that he was not related to this Ming Jun at all.

Chu Yunlan also sighed, "Listening to Sovereign's words is better than reading a ten-year book. In the past, Yunlan only knew that it was always better to have a simpler life. I never thought that spending money could also help people live. "

After enjoying a sumptuous feast, Qin Lie took out several tens of talisman paper, along with the prepared spirit ink, from the Small Qiankun Bag. They were all produced by the Seven Spirit Sect in the Light Sound Sect and specially made for the direct disciples.

However, these things were not gifted to him by Ling Xuzi, but something that he could purchase himself.

His senior brother obviously knew that he was rich and wouldn't give him any of these things. Qin Lie was helpless, he could only ask for more from You Siying and Chu Yunlan. The latter wasn't too bad, but the former actually opened up an exorbitant price and fiercely struck a line from him. Thus, there was another grudge between the two.

For this matter, Qin Lie silently cursed Ling Xuzi for the entire day.

With a solemn expression and deep thoughts, Qin Lie suddenly waved his brush. On the talisman paper, write the word 'swallow' and the word 'clean.'

Recently, his cultivation of Cultivation Level had increased very quickly with Ling Xuzi's help. On the other hand, his spirit art soul power had become somewhat stagnant.

Although he had cultivated a tenth rank Holy Spirit Realm meditation technique, he was still unable to change it.

If he could not understand this word, then his Cultivation Level would not be able to truly level up.

Before Ling Xuzi left, she seemed to know his meaning as well. Aside from a Great Firmament Technique and dozens of other techniques that were passed down through the Life Dao, there were also the rest of the spirit arts manuals that had been left behind.

Most of the rest were related to the word 'net' and 'swallow'.

However, in this world, the number of Profound Arts Master who choose to form these two real talismans are extremely few. Qin Lie also saw some, which did not help him much.

The recent enlightenment seemed to have reached a dead end, unable to be solved for a long time.

Fortunately, at this moment, he had a new choice.

Abruptly, he pulled out the sword and took the broken Nine-qilin Sword in his hand. After only a few breaths of hesitation, Qin Lie's face had already revealed a determined look.

"Xiao Jin, whether your master can improve this time will depend on you!"

As he willed it, Qin Lie's left arm, which was covered in a silver ball of "liquid" with faint golden threads, suddenly began to flow downwards.

In the blink of an eye, it had completely enveloped the Nine-qilin Sword. The golden blade turned into a silver-white color.

Right at the moment when this layer of silver membrane completely covered the sword, the Xiao Jin began to devour it!

He first secreted a special kind of liquid, causing the spirit gold to break down, and then directly absorbed it into his body. Some of the metals that were useless to it were purified and eliminated.
