50: Chapter 50 The Rich Woman Saintess's Taking Advantage of the Situation!

In the prosperous Central Continent, at the Sword Pavilion.

On a lone peak piercing the clouds, ten thousand swords hung in the air, their Sword Qi awe-inspiring.

An elder with white hair and a youthful complexion sat cross-legged atop the sword peak. His eyes were slightly closed, and his body was surrounded by terrifying Sword Intent capable of slicing through the Void Realm.

Suddenly, his brows furrowed tightly, and his gaze shot toward the south like lightning.

"One month ago, purple clouds came from the east for thirty thousand li; that was the omen of a Supreme descending into the world."

"Today, ten thousand demons bowed in worship, shaking the heavens; this is the sign of the Demon Lord's resurrection."

The elder muttered to himself, his tone carrying a hint of solemnity and killing intent:

"That land of sustenance in the Southern Region, when did such a variable emerge? It is actually suppressing the anomaly so much that even the Seal of Heaven and Earth cannot contain it!"

"Hmph! Ten thousand years have passed; there must be no accidents!"

The elder flicked his finger, and a beam of sword light flew out.

"Summon Wang Quan!"

A moment later, a grim-faced youth carrying a heavy sword arrived on a flying sword and knelt before the elder.

"Revered Master."

"Wang Quan, in one year, it will be the time for the harvesting of the Four Lands."

The elder's voice was cold:

"Frequent anomalies in the Southern Region suggest a Prodigy may have been born. Go and prepare immediately. When the Seal loosens, you must... eradicate all unstable factors at the root!"

"If I am not mistaken, that woman from the Jade Pool Palace must be unable to sit still either. That is fine; it serves as double insurance."

"Yes! This Disciple obeys!"

Azure Cloud City, Su Family meeting hall.

Unlike the turbulent winds outside, the Su Family was currently facing a severe economic crisis.

Ying Yue'e sat upright in the main seat, her belly bulging. Although heavily pregnant, her capable aura as the Grand Princess of Great Qin had not diminished in the slightest.

Below, several Su Family stewards proficient in accounting were reporting the accounts, sweating profusely. Su Feng sat quietly to the side, playing with a teacup, appearing leisurely, but his brows were slightly furrowed.

This was the first time Su Feng had come to listen since Ying Yue'e took over the Su Family's affairs. He did not care about the minor details; he only focused on the final number.

"Reporting to the Matriarch and the Patriarch."

The head steward wiped his sweat, his voice trembling:

"The Family's income last month... from the Spirit Stone mines, Medicinal Pill shops, and Shadow Pavilion, totaled thirty-three million four hundred thousand Spirit Stones."

"And the expenditures..."

The head steward swallowed, glanced at Su Feng, and bit the bullet:

"The total expenditure... is one hundred and twelve million Spirit Stones! The deficit... is seventy-eight million!"

Although Su Feng was mentally prepared, he still felt a toothache upon hearing this number.

One must know, this was even with the Su Family possessing several Spiritual Veins and monopolizing the surrounding Medicinal Pill business.

The annual income of an ordinary Golden Core Family was only a million, yet the Su Family spent one hundred million Spirit Stones in a single month?!

"Patriarch, there is no other way..."

The head steward smiled bitterly:

"The Eldest Young Revered Master bathes in top-tier spiritual liquid every day, and the Second Young Revered Master treats Grade Five Medicinal Pills like candy. Plus, those two Divine Beast cubs..."

"Senior Nine Nether Pill Venerable said that according to Young Revered Master Su Hao's talent, this is still 'impoverished raising'. If one wants to lay a perfect Foundation, it requires at least one hundred and fifty million Spirit Stones in resources every month."

Calculating at ten Spirit Stones to one Mid-Grade Spirit Stone, and ten Mid-Grade Spirit Stones to one High-Grade Spirit Stone, that is only one million five hundred thousand High-Grade Spirit Stones.

In the eyes of the Nine Nether Pill Venerable, it can only be considered a subsistence allowance.

If it were in the world where the Nine Nether Pill Venerable resides, the appearance of Su Hao and Su Mo would inevitably lead to countless immortal sects fighting over them, sparing no cost to wage war for them.

One must know that the future of these two children will inevitably be an existence that dominates the ancient times! The future of these children will certainly bring endless wealth to the Family! But now, this is in the resource-poor Southern Region.

Su Feng rubbed his temples, feeling for the first time what a sweet burden was. It is a trouble when one's offspring have Heaven-Defying talent.

"Alright, you may leave."

Ying Yue'e waved everyone away, watching the distressed Su Feng, a flash of heartache in her eyes.

She slowly stood up, walked to Su Feng's side, and sat naturally on his lap, wrapping her arms around his neck:

"Husband, how about... I write a letter, and have the Imperial Brother allocate another batch of resources from the Great Qin imperial treasury?"

"We are Family, after all. If the Imperial Brother knows it is for the children, he will certainly not refuse."

With soft jade and warm fragrance in his arms, Su Feng took the opportunity to wrap his arms around her plump waist and shook his head.

"No."

"Great Qin is currently targeted by several nations, and the pressure is already great. Besides... I, Su Feng, am not yet reduced to living off my wife's maiden Family."

"I will find a way for the money."

Since Ying Yue'e took over the Su Family, the Family had undergone earth-shaking changes in all aspects.

Lin Qingxue only knew how to Cultivate; asking Yan Ling'er to act coquettishly was fine, but asking her to manage things would be less troublesome than just burning the Su Family down. As for Wu Qin... she was quite formidable when it came to hacking people.

Only Ying Yue'e was exceptionally intelligent and possessed management abilities.

Su Mu was always polite whenever he saw this daughter-in-law, and Ying Yue'e managed the entire Family so well that everyone was obedient and convinced by her.

A dangerous red light flashed in Su Feng's eyes. He flipped his palm, and that [Crimson Flame Secret Realm Teleportation Talisman] radiating spatial fluctuations appeared in his palm.

"This is..." Ying Yue'e's beautiful eyes widened slightly.

"The talisman that Yang Yan left for Little Sister Lin?"

Su Feng nodded, a cold smile curling on his lips:

"That brat Yang Yan, I spared his life just for today."

"The Blazing Moon Sect has a Legacy of ten thousand years and a profound Foundation; that Crimson Flame Secret Realm is their core treasury."

"But..."

Ying Yue'e was somewhat worried, her slender hand caressing Su Feng's cheek, her eyes filled with tenderness:

"The Blazing Moon Sect is, after all, one of the three great sects, with a Foundation far exceeding the five great Empires, and they even have hidden old monsters. I do not want you to take risks."

"Don't worry."

Su Feng grasped her jade-like hand and kissed the back of it.

"Even their Grand Elder Yang Tian was slain by me. As long as I don't encounter those old monsters, what can the remaining two or three stray cats and kittens do to me?"

"Besides... even if I can't beat them, I can run. I have [Shrinking the Ground to an Inch]; who can keep me here?"

As Su Feng spoke, he reached his hand into Ying Yue'e's hair, gently stroking her waterfall-like black hair. The atmosphere gradually heated up.

Ying Yue'e felt her body go soft, her pretty face slightly flushed. Suddenly, her body trembled, and she coquettishly scolded:

"You... bad guy! Don't move around... you're poking me..."

"Hmm?"

Su Feng chuckled wickedly and swept Ying Yue'e up into his arms, striding toward the inner chamber:

"Ah~~ So it turns out the little brother was ignorant and made the little sister angry?"

"Since that is the case, let the little brother make amends properly..."

"Ah! I beg you, stop talking... hmm~~"

Ying Yue'e's exclamation was quickly cut off, turning into a room full of amorous spring scenery.

At the guest room.

Shen Luoyu, who had been monitoring with secret techniques, was biting her lower lip tightly, her black and white eyes filled with speechlessness...

"Damn it... is this guy's Pure Yang Sacred Body... just to be wasted like this?! Messing around with these women every day, isn't he afraid of draining his body hollow!"

She hated it! Such pure Yang Qi, if it were used by her to Cultivate, she would have long ago broken through the Bottleneck! Yet it was all used by Su Feng to have children!

Just then, an old woman wearing the attire of the Yin Yang Sect appeared silently behind her.

"Saintess, we have found the information you requested."

Shen Luoyu's face lit up with joy as she hurriedly took the jade slip and scanned it with her Divine Sense.

"It really is so!"

A moment later, she put down the jade slip, her eyes flashing with shrewd light:

"His offspring are too Heaven-Defying; both children were accompanied by anomalies of heaven and earth, which is unique in the Southern Region."

"But the Su Family started too fast, and their Foundation is too thin. At this rate of consumption, resources will inevitably be unable to keep up; this is their greatest weakness!"

Shen Luoyu's delicate red lips curled into a confident arc:

"Lacking money? Heh, what my Yin Yang Sect lacks the least, is money!"

"Su Feng, since you do not want to marry into my Family... then I will smash you with money! I do not believe that there is anyone in this world who cannot be bought with money!"
