I have hundreds of millions of servants in the cultivation world.

Chapter 3: Gang Chaos in the Mineral Vein

Furthermore, his and Kui-ichi's aptitudes complemented each other, nearly doubling in strength, which greatly benefited them.

It is estimated that within half a year, he will be able to comprehend the basics of the weapon crafting and formation inheritance, and even reach the second level of Qi Refining.

This is truly a pleasant surprise.

"By the way, getting Kaiichi to help with mining is also a problem because of his identity."

"But allowing them to openly and legitimately join the mine would be too costly, as it would require handing over a significant amount of ore to the Blood Fiend Gang."

Ye Xuan'an looked at Kui Yi, lost in thought.

Then, he considered that the mine was huge with many branches, and that there were at least several hundred, if not thousands, of cultivators mining there.

If one is careful, it is difficult for Kaiichi to be discovered.

Therefore, he planned to make Kuiichi an unregistered resident.

However, the mine will not distribute spirit iron pickaxes to unregistered individuals.

In addition, he only had one of those kinds of things.

He then temporarily took Kui Yi into his servant tower and went to a small trading area in the mine to exchange ten spirit stones for a somewhat worn spirit iron pickaxe from a stall.

Although that thing couldn't compare to a brand-new spirit iron pickaxe, having lost nearly half of its spiritual essence, it was still usable.

Now that we have the Spirit Iron Drafter, it's time to get Kuiichi to help us mine.

Ye Xuan'an secretly looked forward to it.

Immediately afterwards, he took Kuiyi to a remote place to dig for ore.

He then placed all the ores into his servant space.

As for the food that Kui-ichi needs daily, he gets it from the mine's canteen.

Although the food in the cafeteria was all ordinary and rather common, it was reasonably priced; you could eat as much as you wanted, and you could even take it away.

……

Some time passed.

at the same time.

Deep within the residential area of ​​the mining vein, at the Blood Fiend Gang's stronghold, lies a strikingly large wooden house.

All the cultivators of the Blood Fiend Gang were gathered here by the gang leader, totaling nearly twenty people.

"Master, what brings you all here today?"

At this moment, some of the leaders of the Blood Fiend Gang asked the Blood Fiend Gang leader with great curiosity.

Wang Qian was also among those leaders.

However, compared to his previous arrogant demeanor in front of Ye Xuan'an and the others, his expression at this moment was completely different.

He was extremely humble, looking at the Blood Fiend Gang Leader with a fawning expression, waiting for his orders, like a lapdog.

"Everyone, my sect recently seized a lot of extra ore, and I used it to obtain a high-level breakthrough pill, and I have successfully entered the sixth level of Qi Refining."

"This level of cultivation is quite good among the gangs in the various mines, enough to rank in the top three. Therefore, I intend to try to subdue some gangs in the surrounding mines. I wonder if you would be willing to come with me?"

"Furthermore, those who make contributions will have their managed areas increased several times, or even several times, and you can imagine how much profit you will make."

The leader of the Blood Fiend Gang said with a hint of excitement.

He was a middle-aged man who appeared gentle, but was actually ruthless. He was skilled in fire magic and had the potential to become a magic cultivator. During battles, he often liked to burn cultivators to ashes, earning him a fearsome reputation.

In addition, most of the cultivators mining in the veins are in the early stage of Qi Refining, since it is difficult for such cultivators to find a good job.

Furthermore, cultivators at the mid-stage of Qi Refining or above would be considered below average even within the entire Ruoshui County.

As long as one has a good reputation, one can easily become a retainer in some minor powers or marry into another family and comfortably earn profits.

Therefore, few cultivators above the mid-stage of Qi Refining would engage in such arduous work as mining.

Upon closer examination, even a Qi Refining Level 6 cultivator like the Blood Fiend Gang Leader is considered the tallest among the short in the mine.

Secondly, although the Blood Fiend Gang only occupies the No. 5 main mine, even this place is extremely lucrative.

If it weren't for the lucrative opportunities here, he wouldn't have been able to reach the sixth level of Qi Refining so quickly.

Therefore, the Blood Fiend Gang leader was extremely eager to occupy the remaining mines.

"Sixth level of Qi Refining? Congratulations, Sect Leader, your cultivation has greatly increased."

"Furthermore, we are naturally willing to assist you with what you have said, Boss."

"However, boss, it's inevitable that conflicts will arise when we try to subdue other gangs. If a fight breaks out and people die, it might cause some trouble."

Upon hearing this, Wang Qian and the others' eyes lit up, but they also had some concerns and quickly replied.

"Don't worry, I've already spoken with that Zhao clan cultivator behind our gang about this matter."

"However, this matter cannot be blown out of proportion, and we only have this one chance today."

Therefore, we must make the most of it.

The Blood Fiend Gang Leader said with a hint of heartache.

This is because he paid an extremely high price to gain this opportunity to take action.

In the past, the Blood Fiend Gang only needed to hand over 50% of its tax revenue and mineral profits to the Zhao family cultivators behind it.

But now, a full 70% must be handed over.

Fortunately, as long as the Blood Fiend Gang can expand its territory this time, then this matter will not be a problem.

That's good.

Wang Qian and the other leaders were overjoyed and revealed a ferocious look.

Immediately afterwards, they quickly gathered their men and stealthily made their way to the nearest main mine shaft, number four.

The mine was controlled by the Muddy Water Gang, which was weaker than the Blood Fiend Gang and had no Qi Refining Level 6 cultivators guarding it.

Their leaders were a husband and wife who were both at the fifth level of Qi Refining.

That's why the Blood Fiend Gang set their sights on them.

Moreover, because the Blood Fiend Gang was well prepared, they caught the Muddy Water Gang off guard, causing the Muddy Water Gang to suffer a crushing defeat.

In addition, since the Blood Fiend Gang knew that the Muddy Water Gang had also planted some spies in the No. 5 mine, they specially arranged for some cultivators to go and kill them.

After all, if those spies aren't eliminated, they'll become a menace sooner or later.

……

at the same time.

Deep within a branch of the No. 5 main mine shaft.

While Ye Xuan'an and Kui Yi were mining, a communication talisman suddenly flew in.

'A message talisman?'

Ye Xuan'an was somewhat surprised to see this.

He then looked at the contents of the document.

According to the records, the talisman was passed down to him by Zhang Fu, a miner who was quite familiar with him.

It briefly describes the Blood Fiend Gang's surprise attack on the Muddy Water Gang.

In addition, Zhang Fu, seeing that Ye Xuan'an had not returned for a long time, intended to urge Ye Xuan'an to return to the residential area as soon as possible to avoid trouble.

"Brother Zhang's message was timely; I must thank you afterwards."

"Furthermore, I truly didn't expect the Blood Fiend Gang to cause such a huge mess, and the Zhao family cultivators guarding the mine have been pretending not to see anything."

This place is getting more and more chaotic.

Ye Xuan'an's expression changed drastically as he looked at the contents of those communication talismans.

He then quickly took Kaiichi into his servant space and headed towards the residential area.

But before long, two figures stopped him.

The two men were Wang Qian, a minor leader of the Blood Fiend Gang, and one of his henchmen.

"I didn't expect to find Fellow Daoist Xuan'an here. What a coincidence!"

"By the way, fellow Daoist, we are currently short of spirit stones. We hope you can lend us some. We will definitely repay you in the future."

Wang Qian was slightly surprised to see Ye Xuan'an appear here, and with a grin, he tried to take advantage of the situation.

He had done this often before, so he was very familiar with it.

In addition, he was originally ordered to investigate a member of the Muddy Waters Gang, but he unexpectedly ran into Ye Xuan'an on the way.

"What are you standing there for? Hurry up and take out the spirit stones."

Wang Qian's lackey roared angrily.

"This is outright robbery!"

"..."

Ye Xuan'an was speechless.

Then, considering that Kui Yi was a powerful body cultivator, he took into account that Kui Yi was strong.

Furthermore, it is located within the servant tower.

If summoned at a crucial moment and used in conjunction with the enemy, there is a good chance of killing those two.

Moreover, this place is extremely remote and there are no outsiders, making it an ideal place for murder.

Therefore, a murderous intent arose in his heart.

Give it your all.

Ye Xuan'an's mind stirred.
