Looking at those two eggs, Ye Xuan was speechless.
Is this the power of money?
Qin Guan continued the meeting.
Ye Xuan sat quietly to the side, listening. He had to admit, he was somewhat shocked.
Because these chairpersons from various realms were reporting the annual income of their respective Immortal Treasure Pavilions, and Ye Xuan discovered that even the lowest-earning pavilion made at least several billion Star God Veins a year!
What kind of concept was this?
Keep in mind, there were over a thousand chairpersons here!
Moreover, some pavilions had annual incomes reaching hundreds of billions of Star God Veins! After deducting costs, they could easily make at least half that in profit!
Most importantly, Qin Guan had previously mentioned that she had opened tens of millions of Immortal Treasure Pavilions!
A wealthy woman!
Ye Xuan could no longer fathom Qin Guan’s wealth!
This woman’s fortune was probably only comparable to that of Little White from the Milky Way! Even Little White might not measure up! After all, Little White was an individual, whereas Qin Guan was different—this woman had countless people helping her make money!
At this thought, he couldn’t help but shake his head and sigh.
Qing’er was perfect in every way, except she wasn’t particularly interested in money. Otherwise, with Qing’er’s abilities, if she set out to make money…
Qing’er: “???”
…
Some time later, Qin Guan suddenly said, “Dividends!”
Dividends!
At these words, the chairpersons in the room immediately grew excited, their eyes brimming with unconcealed joy and enthusiasm.
Even Old Zhang, who had been as still as a monk, showed a subtle change in expression!
Qin Guan suddenly looked at a woman not far away. The woman wore a simple long dress, her appearance ordinary but her demeanor refined.
Qin Guan smiled, “Fu Qing, this time, the Immortal Treasure Pavilion under your management had the highest revenue. You’re this year’s sales champion!”
As she spoke, she placed a storage ring in front of Fu Qing.
The crowd scanned it with their divine senses, and the next moment, everyone grew excited, their eyes filled with undisguised envy.
Inside the storage ring were a full thirty billion Star God Veins!
Thirty billion!
This was an astronomical sum!
When Ye Xuan saw this amount, he was first shocked, then astounded.
Thirty billion!
How many people could never earn such a fortune in their entire lives? And yet, Qin Guan had just rewarded it like that?
Fu Qing was also visibly excited. Clearly, this reward exceeded her expectations. She quickly stood, gave a slight bow, and said with a trembling voice, “Thank you, Pavilion Master!”
Qin Guan continued, “You’re currently at the Quantitative Change Realm?”
Fu Qing nodded, “Yes!”
Qin Guan nodded slightly, “Going from quantitative change to qualitative change isn’t so simple!”
As she spoke, she opened her palm, and a scroll slowly floated to Fu Qing. “This scroll contains my insights on the Qualitative Change Realm. It will help you.”
At this, the expressions of all the chairpersons in the room changed dramatically. Countless people stood up. After all, the reason they joined the Immortal Treasure Pavilion was to make money. And what was the purpose of making money?
Cultivation!
And cultivation, besides money, required techniques and methods!
Now, Qin Guan was directly rewarding a cultivation method.
It could be said that Fu Qing reaching the Qualitative Change Realm was only a matter of time!
Countless people were envious!
Even those chairpersons who had already reached the Qualitative Change Realm felt a twinge of envy.
Back when they hadn’t met Qin Guan, they had to grope their way forward bit by bit on their own. Now, with Qin Guan’s direct guidance, how many detours could that save?
On the path of life, without a mentor to guide you, relying solely on your own struggles was truly, truly difficult!
When Fu Qing heard Qin Guan’s words, she immediately knelt, trembling with excitement, and stammered, “Pavilion Master, I…”
Qin Guan helped Fu Qing up, smiling, “From what I know, the Immortal Treasure Pavilion you manage not only has the highest revenue but also the best reputation. This is what you deserve!”
Fu Qing gave a deep bow, “Thank you, Pavilion Master!”
Qin Guan nodded slightly, then glanced at the crowd. “Meeting adjourned!”
At this, everyone stood, gave a slight bow, and left.
At that moment, a woman approached Ye Xuan. She smiled slightly, “Young Master Ye, do you remember me?”
Ye Xuan smiled, “Of course, Miss Qinglian!”
Qinglian chuckled, “Young Master Ye, after a few days apart, you’ve grown even stronger!”
Ye Xuan laughed heartily.
Qinglian glanced at Qin Guan, who was sitting nearby, gave a deep bow, and then left.
Qin Guan turned to Ye Xuan, smiling, “I’ll be busy for about three days. Why don’t you go have some fun on your own?”
Ye Xuan smiled, “You mentioned compensation before. Remember?”
Qin Guan nodded, “What do you want?”
At this, Ye Xuan found himself at a loss.
What should he ask for?
Money?
He was quite short on that!
Treasures?
He was indeed eyeing Qin Guan’s treasures.
Qin Guan suddenly smiled, “How about this: I’ll owe you one. When you figure out what you need, just let me know. Sound good?”
Ye Xuan nodded, “Sounds good!”
Qin Guan smiled faintly, then picked up the thick notebook in front of her. “I’ll get to work. Once I’m done, I’ll take you to visit a place.”
With that, she turned and left.
Ye Xuan glanced at Qin Guan’s small cloth bag, lost in thought.
Little Tower suddenly said, “Little Master, let’s not get any ideas about that bag! We really can’t beat her! Those treasures of hers—I’m getting goosebumps just hearing about them!”
Ye Xuan’s face darkened, “What are you talking about? Am I that kind of person?”
With that, he turned and left.
Time to explore!
Ye Xuan decided to wander around the Great Thousand Region. He had to admit, this place was incredibly bustling. In the starry sky, people came and went, a constant stream of activity.
In the shadows, he sensed some hidden auras, each one very powerful.
Ye Xuan walked slowly through the starry sky, deep in thought.
Qin Guan’s earlier words had left a deep impression on him.
The unknown!
From Qin Guan, he had learned about unknown things: the Great Dao Pen, those outside the rules, the Defiers of Heaven, the Chosen Ones…
And Qing’er, suppressing some existence in the Milky Way…
Ye Xuan sighed softly. He needed to work harder!
If he didn’t strive now, his future self might have to rely entirely on his father and Qing’er.
Moreover, he was starting to understand his father’s intentions!
And what his father was worried about!
As Qin Guan had said, there was more than one Chosen One, and being a Chosen One didn’t mean you couldn’t die. Of course, he wasn’t particularly attached to this whole “Chosen One” business, but he also knew that the idea of “my fate is mine, not the heavens’” was a bit nonsense!
How many people in the world could truly achieve that?
At least the current him absolutely couldn’t!
And then there was Qing’er. With her invincible strength, she could only suppress that existence, whether because she couldn’t kill it or wasn’t allowed to. Either way, it meant things were far more complicated!
If he didn’t strive now, his head might get smashed in the future!
Just then, Ye Xuan, lost in thought, suddenly turned his head. Not far away, a man and a woman were approaching slowly.
He recognized the man—it was Qianji!
And the strongest force in the Great Thousand Region was Qianji City. Clearly, this Young Master Qianji was the young lord of Qianji City!
Qianji walked up to Ye Xuan, smiling, “Young Master Ye, we meet again!”
Ye Xuan smiled, “Not just a coincidence, I presume?”
Qianji nodded slightly, “To be honest, I came to get to know you, Young Master Ye!”
Ye Xuan laughed, “Young Master Qianji, you’re not here to get to know me—you want to know about my relationship with Pavilion Master Qin, right?”
Qianji was momentarily stunned, then smiled, “Is Young Master Ye always so direct?”
Ye Xuan smiled, “Pavilion Master Qin and I are friends, you could say!”
Friends!
He naturally understood the other’s intentions. Seeing him close to Qin Guan, Qianji likely had some other ideas.
Qianji’s eyes narrowed slightly, “From what I know, Pavilion Master Qin rarely, if ever, makes friends!”
Ye Xuan shrugged, “Well, I wouldn’t know about that!”
Qianji fell silent.
Ye Xuan smiled, “Young Master Qianji, I’ve got things to do. Let’s chat later!”
With that, he turned and left.
After Ye Xuan left, the woman beside Qianji said gravely, “Cousin, who is this guy?”
Qianji shook his head, “I don’t know!”
The woman asked, “Should we investigate?”
Qianji was silent for a moment, then said nothing.
The woman understood!
She turned and left.
…
In the distant starry sky, Little Tower suddenly said, “Little Master, is Qianji pursuing Sister Qin?”
Ye Xuan smiled, “Why are you asking that?”
Little Tower chuckled, “I think he’s got no chance with Sister Qin!”
Ye Xuan was puzzled, “Why not?”
Little Tower said, “Sister Qin’s thoughts and aspirations aren’t something people of this world can understand, just like Sister Yang Lianshuang back then!”
Ye Xuan frowned, “Auntie?”
Little Tower said, “Yes, she’s from the Milky Way too!”
Ye Xuan smiled faintly, “I’ll have to visit the Milky Way someday!”
Little Tower laughed, “Great!”
Ye Xuan smiled. He had to admit, he was quite curious about the Milky Way. The people from there were a bit peculiar, especially Qin Guan—her ideas were truly unique!
Just as Ye Xuan was about to speak, his eyes narrowed, and he suddenly turned around. Not far behind him stood a middle-aged man!
He recognized this man—it was Mu Xu, the patriarch of the Spirit Demon Clan!
Not far behind Mu Xu, there were two extremely subtle auras, both at the Quantitative Change Realm.
Ye Xuan frowned. This opponent was formidable, tracking him all the way here!
What puzzled him, though, was that he had been with Qin Guan. Even if they weren’t afraid of him, they should at least be wary of Qin Guan. Could it be they didn’t know her?
At that moment, Mu Xu suddenly spoke, “That celestial vein!”
Celestial vein!
Ye Xuan smiled, “It’s with me!”
That celestial vein—he hadn’t studied it himself but had given it directly to An Lanxiu to research.
If he didn’t pamper his own woman, who would?
He believed that soon, An Lanxiu’s strength would soar to new heights!
Whether in talent or perseverance, An Lanxiu was top-tier; she just lacked a bit of a cheat.
Mu Xu stared at Ye Xuan. Suddenly, Ye Xuan grinned, “Stop staring at me. If you’ve got the guts, come hit me! You know, it’s been a long, long time since I’ve been beaten up. I’m actually not used to it…”
Little Tower: “…”
