341: Don't suffer any loss, let all living beings become wage earners

You Kui organized his thoughts and said, "If you do this, how can the sect cultivate strong individuals? How can the lineage be passed down?"

Gu Qing had already prepared a countermeasure: "You can take some children as personal disciples. I promise that your first nine disciples will cultivate in the Myriad Star Pond for thirty years to condense the Star God Body."

You Kui's expression changed.

According to Gu Qing's meaning, he planned to divide the sect into inner and outer sections.

The inner section would enjoy all the sect's creations, resources, sacred lands, divine techniques, and secret arts—everything imaginable—receiving all resource allocation.

It would be difficult for disciples not to become strong.

The outer section, however, would be open to all, regardless of whether they were human, demon, or ghost; as long as they could afford the tuition, they could cultivate the Star Lineage cultivation methods.

But they would receive no benefits and would even have to provide resources to the sect.

In fact, Gu Qing didn't even consider these people as sect members, but rather as complete tools.

It could be foreseen that they would have difficulty achieving anything in this life, spending their entire lives striving for resources.

Gu Qing's decision was both perfect and ruthless.

It cut off the path for countless people, but ultimately benefited the sect.

It allowed the sect to gain immense profits, countless cultivation resources, and human resources, and in the end, they also passed down the Star Lineage.

The scale would even be grander.

The specific scale would depend on how many academies were established.

Given Gu Qing's nature, he might establish tens of thousands of academies, or even more, to collect the wealth of the world.

The more You Kui thought about it, the more alarmed he became. He wanted to object because this was not the sect he envisioned.

He wanted to continue the Star Dao Sect's development model, widely recruiting millions of disciples.

Rather than Gu Qing's approach of only having a small number of personal disciples, meticulously cultivated.

Yet, he couldn't find a reason to object.

Because the Star Lineage would indeed be passed down.

"Elder You Kui thinks there are too few disciples?"

Gu Qing smiled and leisurely said, "You can widely establish Starry Sky Academies, opening ten thousand, a hundred thousand, or even a million. By then, they will all be your successors, and you will be their Grand Ancestor."

"..."

You Kui took a deep breath, looking at Gu Qing in shock, as if he was meeting Gu Qing for the first time.

Gu Qing... not only wanted to treat everyone in the world as tools, but also wanted to treat him as an old ox?

He, and perhaps other elders, would be utilized completely.

Yet, he was tempted.

Even knowing this was Gu Qing's overt scheme, he was willing, even eager, to become Gu Qing's pawn.

Who wouldn't want disciples spread across the world? Who wouldn't want to be a Grand Ancestor?

"What a cunning and shrewd person," You Kui thought to himself.

It should be known that prodigies and monstrous talents generally aren't good at strategy; they single-mindedly focus on cultivation to achieve a clear Dao Heart and make rapid progress.

But Gu Qing was as shrewd as a ghost, never taking a loss, possessing great wisdom.

His talent was even Unprecedented, with no one before him and no one after.

He really couldn't understand how the Peerless Twins had cultivated such a freak as Gu Qing.

"How have you considered it?" Gu Qing asked, "As long as you agree, I will fully support you and immediately have people compile cultivation methods, divine abilities, and secret arts below the Profound God level for you."

Since they were tools, Gu Qing couldn't possibly give them profound cultivation methods.

Of course, even the lowest-grade cultivation methods recorded by the Star Dao Sect were extraordinarily profound.

For rogue cultivators, they were treasures, causing countless people to fight over them.

Gu Qing was not worried about not recruiting students.

"Good!" You Kui nodded heavily, a surge of heroic spirit and passion rising in his heart.

He seemed to already see that all living beings in the immortal realm were his disciples, all successors of the Star Lineage.

However, to be fair, once the living beings reacted, Gu Qing would surely be reviled and his name would be infamous in history, right?!

"Then let's go and discuss the specific matters with the Wang Yue lineage!"

With the matter settled, Gu Qing was in a great mood.

His gaze swept over the eagerly anticipating prodigies and the calm and detached Profound God Great Powers, a hint of mockery flashing in his eyes.

They actually dared to try and treat him as a major suckered; they were truly ugly but dreamed beautifully.

All living beings in the world could only become laborers for the Boundless Divine Sect.

Spreading the Dao throughout the world was just the first step. Gu Qing would collect resources from the immortal realm, cultivate true powerhouses, and develop the Boundless Divine Sect into the only transcendent existence in the immortal realm... the Limitless Palace.

The Little Fairies, who were single-mindedly cultivating in the Limitless Palace, showed panic after hearing Gu Qing's plan.

They didn't want to go out; they only wanted to stay in the sect and cultivate quietly.

Being asked to interact with strangers, and even guide them in cultivation, made them even more flustered and resistant.

Clearly, many of the Little Fairies were socially anxious, and some were even thousands or tens of thousands of years old.

Of course, there were also many Little Fairies who, after being quiet for too long, wanted to move and teach others, and were eager to try.

Their hearts were filled with excitement and joy.

Gu Qing's decision perfectly suited them; they all preferred quietness over excitement.

At the same time, it was also most beneficial to them.

Because among the entire Boundless Divine Sect, their Taiyin Lineage had the most people.

"Don't be afraid, Junior Sister, Senior Sister is here."

Seeing her Junior Sister's pale face and panic, she quickly held her Junior Sister's small hand to comfort her.

"But..." Jiao Yanni was still very flustered.

Although she was usually incredibly aloof, appearing arrogant and displeased with everyone.

In reality, she was just afraid of people talking to her.

Every time a stranger approached, especially a male, it made her heart race and her nerves tense.

"Sect Master, do you think I could take my Junior Sister's place?"

This Senior Sister clearly doted on her Junior Sister very much. She stood up, bowed to Gu Qing, and spoke cautiously.

"You can, each person must establish at least one academy."

Gu Qing rubbed his forehead; he had no solution for social anxiety.

"However..."

"However, what?"

The hearts of the socially anxious ones tightened.

"Your temperament is so poor, how can you cultivate the Great Dao? So I think you should try to overcome it," Gu Qing advised.

"Hoo!"

The socially anxious ones let out a long breath, revealing smiles that bloomed like a hundred flowers, breathtakingly beautiful.

"Sect Master, rest assured, we cultivate the Lunar Dao Scripture, our divine souls are pure and flawless, our minds are clear, and we will not have inner demons. Moreover, we have all cultivated divine soul secret arts and can distinguish between reality and illusion."

Chai Yin-yin said with a radiant smile.

"...Alright!"

Gu Qing said no more. Everyone had their own personality and way of living; there was no need to force it.

"Thank you, Sect Master, for your magnanimity."

The women were overjoyed and sincerely bowed in gratitude.

At this moment, they suddenly felt that Gu Qing was simply the best Sect Master in the world, enlightened and magnanimous.

Gu Qing thought for a moment and said, "You don't have to open academies, but you must do more sect tasks."

"Yes, we will follow the Sect Master's instructions."

The women replied.

They were just socially anxious, not useless.

They were very good at killing.

They could even be stationed in a region.

They had done many similar tasks.

Gu Qing nodded, then discussed with them the construction of the academies and their development model.

Building academies was a huge project, requiring too many palaces and formations to be refined.

They needed to hire formation masters and artifact refiners.

However, these were minor matters. The Boundless Divine Sect had nothing in abundance but resources.

As for the development model, it was very crude: everything could be bought with money.

The only rule was that no fighting was allowed within the academies, though death matches could be arranged.

To attract more students, Gu Qing even implemented a series of incentive mechanisms.

Rewards included top-grade pills, magic treasures, or secret realm slots, etc.

The more You Kui listened, the more alarmed he became. He could even imagine many prodigies signing up for top-grade immortal pills.

To compete for slots, they would remain affiliated with the academy for years.

Because Gu Qing had a very tricky rule: talent aside, all competition benefits were only available to students who had been enrolled for a hundred years.

Gu Qing truly didn't let go of any leek.

"Sect Master, I have a question," You Kui couldn't help but say.

"Speak!"

"Slots are easy to talk about; we have countless secret realms, and any surplus can be used as rewards. But top-grade immortal pills..."

He knew Gu Qing was an immortal pill grandmaster, but he didn't know Gu Qing's specific level.

Producing one top-grade immortal pill made one a grandmaster, and refining nine also made one a grandmaster.

If Gu Qing only produced one top-grade immortal pill out of ten batches of immortal pills, then it was basically hopeless.

"You can rest assured about that. I can refine a hundred top-grade immortal pills for you every hundred years," Gu Qing said.

Then it was fine.

Although a hundred top-grade immortal pills were few, this was primarily a gimmick, enough to attract prodigies.

If there still weren't enough, they could hold one competition per celestial domain, and the first place would be rewarded with one top-grade immortal pill.

You Kui thought to himself... "He's really capable of causing mischief!"

Jiang Yu sighed inwardly.

She had originally been worried that Gu Qing wouldn't be able to manage such a large sect, and thus was distracted, paying attention to Gu Qing's decisions.

After all, Gu Qing had always cultivated and never had any management experience.

She was afraid that Gu Qing's incorrect decisions would ruin a great situation.

But who knew, Gu Qing was even more outstanding than she had imagined.

As always, he never took a loss, as shrewd as a ghost.

"Goose, goose, goose..."

Xian'er raised her small hand, her big eyes full of confusion and bewilderment.

As if wondering why her mother, who was fine a moment ago, suddenly stopped moving and speaking.

"Smack!"

"Xian'er, you must not learn from your father, that little rascal. He's terribly mischievous, full of bad intentions."

"Goose, goose, goose..."
