110: Chapter 110 Wang Bin’s Choice

Chu Wu's gaze swept quickly over the Zhong Sheng Sect's list for West Sea City, and a sense of urgency immediately surged within him. He decided to return to West Sea City at once.

He stood up abruptly, but just as he turned, as if suddenly remembering something important, he slowly sat back down.

He looked at Wang Bin with a solemn expression and said,

"Qingmu, your performance this time was truly remarkable.

I know you want to develop your Family, but now that you have inadvertently offended the powerful Zhong Sheng Sect, staying in White Cloud City could put you in danger at any time.

Now, I will offer you two choices; please consider them carefully.

Firstly, you can return to West Sea City with me. I will arrange a suitable position for you in the city, allowing you to Cultivate diligently without distractions.

According to the plan, twenty years from now, you can fully attempt to break through to the Golden Core Realm. With my Chu Family escorting you, this path will naturally be much smoother.

Secondly, if you insist on staying in White Cloud City, you must remain highly vigilant at all times and closely monitor any movements in the Demon Beast Mountain Range, especially any whispers about the Zhong Sheng Sect within White Cloud City.

You have rendered great service this time, successfully assisting our Chu Family in capturing an Azure Flame Bird. Our Chu Family will never forget this achievement.

As a reward, I bestow upon you this Formation Plate for the Five Elements Great Array, along with dozens of High-Grade Spirit Stones, which I also hand over to you.

Not only that, but the management authority of White Cloud City will also be entirely entrusted to you from now on.

However, eighty percent of the rent from the city's shops must be submitted to the Four Seas Commerce League on time, with the payment standard referencing School regulations, to be paid once every ten years.

Of course, the Chu Family will still fully support your attempt to break through to the Golden Core Realm, but if you are unfortunately killed by a Yao Beast from the Demon Beast Mountain Range, then our Chu Family cannot be blamed."

Upon hearing Chu Wu's words, Wang Bin showed a thoughtful expression, but in his heart, he had already made a clear decision.

Du Xiaoyue, on the other hand, looked anxious, her heart burning with impatience as she gazed at Wang Bin. In her opinion, the first option was undoubtedly the most stable and safest.

She hoped Wang Bin would choose to follow Chu Wu back to West Sea City, but she dared not speak her thoughts rashly.

Wang Bin keenly noticed the impatience gradually appearing on Chu Qingluan's face beside him. He knew he could no longer hesitate.

So, he took a deep breath and said with a firm expression,

"Hall Master Chu, I am deeply grateful for your kindness and elevation. After careful consideration, Disciple has decided to stay in White Cloud City and develop my Family.

As for the Yao Beasts in the Demon Beast Mountain Range possibly seeking revenge on me, hehe, I, Wang Bin, have always believed that life and death are fated, and wealth is determined by Heaven!

I also believe that wealth is found in danger!

Otherwise, with my current situation and Aptitude, I'm afraid I might never have the chance to attempt to break through to the Golden Core Realm in this lifetime!"

"Good! Since you have made your decision, I will say no more.

I have many matters to attend to in West Sea City, so I will take my leave first."

After Chu Wu finished speaking, he handed the Formation Plate of the Five Elements Great Array to Wang Bin and then walked out quickly.

Chu Qingluan followed closely behind Chu Wu without a word. Thirteenth Aunt carefully put the Azure Flame Bird into a Spirit Beast bag and also hurried after them.

When Wang Bin walked out of the City Lord's Mansion and looked up at the sky, he saw that Hall Master Chu's flying ship had already vanished without a trace.

Wang Bin understood that Hall Master Chu was in such a hurry likely because of the list in the Azure Flame Bird's Storage Pouch.

The capture of spies has always been an urgent matter. Any delay, and the spies are very likely to get news and escape, disappearing into the vast crowd, making it as difficult as ascending to Heaven to capture them again.

Wang Bin looked into the distance, sighing inwardly!

Zhong Sheng Sect, all living beings are equal. Why do similar organizations exist in every world?

This Cultivation World is even more outrageous, actually attempting to put Mortals, Cultivators, and Yao Beasts on an equal footing.

This clearly violates the long-standing Rank order and common sense of the Cultivation World.

But, who cares! Whichever force is beneficial to him, he will support that force.

After all, on this cruel path of Cultivation, only by preserving oneself and constantly seeking development is it possible to achieve one's Cultivation dream.

"Junior Martial Uncle! The first option Hall Master Chu gave was so good, why do we insist on staying by the Demon Beast Mountain Range?

This place is too dangerous!"

Du Xiaoyue hesitated for a long time, but finally mustered the courage to voice the doubts in her heart.

Wang Bin turned slightly, looked at Du Xiaoyue, and said earnestly,

"Xiaoyue, you must understand that in this world, wealth is always found in danger.

If we choose to go to West Sea City, we can certainly avoid danger temporarily, but have you considered that once we get there, we will lose our stable source of income?

With just the meager salary issued by the School, let alone developing the Family, even supporting a few of you would be a problem.

Although we encountered an enemy ambush today, and the process was thrilling and fraught with danger, if you think carefully, compared to the rich gains we received today, what do those dangers count for?

Take this Rank 3 Five Elements Great Array Formation Plate in my hand, for example; its value is immeasurable. Plus, these dozens of High-Grade Spirit Stones, all this wealth combined is enough to equal your aunt's total income from working hard for a hundred years at the Four Seas Commerce League.

What's more, we also have a large harvest from the Azure Flame Bird's Storage Pouch, as well as the Fox Spirit's corpse and its Storage Pouch.

Think about it, if one could Cultivate to Golden Core and Nascent Soul simply by working step by step, wouldn't the Cultivation World be full of Golden Core Cultivators like dogs and Nascent Soul Cultivators everywhere!

Although you were a bit scared today, your performance in the subsequent battle was excellent!

This can also be considered a rare experience.

I will introduce you to the other sisters later. You are new here, and you might feel a little unfamiliar and uncomfortable with them, but you must remember that we are Cultivators. Although love is also a beautiful embellishment on this path of Cultivation, pursuing the Great Dao is our ultimate goal.

Only if our lifespan is long enough can we truly be together forever.

I don't want to finally stand at the Peak of Cultivation after enduring countless hardships, only to look back and find that you are not by my side."

After speaking, Wang Bin walked with firm steps directly towards the main hall, leaving Du Xiaoyue with a slightly desolate back.

Wang Bin now somewhat admired his own eloquence. His words were so skillful and came so naturally; Du Xiaoyue must have been incredibly moved.

Wang Bin slowly sat down in the main hall of the City Lord's Mansion, then used sound transmission to notify Qin Wenjun and the others in the backyard, as well as Chen Jun and Huang Youcai, who were patrolling the city,

to quickly gather in the main hall.

In just a few breaths, everyone quickly gathered in the main hall.

The eyes of Qin Wenjun and the four women were instantly drawn to Du Xiaoyue in the main hall. They curiously sized up this unfamiliar female Cultivator.

Du Xiaoyue also curiously scrutinized Qin Wenjun and the four women. Her heart was filled with curiosity about these women who would soon live with her.

Wang Bin gently waved his hand, signaling everyone to be quiet and stopping those who were about to speak.

"Everyone, please be quiet for a moment and listen to a few words from me.

I have several good news to announce today.

Firstly, just a short while ago, Deputy Hall Master Chu of the Four Seas Commerce League's Enforcement Hall arrived.

I believe everyone also personally witnessed Deputy Hall Master Chu publicly announcing that White Cloud City will officially belong to my Wang Family from now on.

Of course, eighty percent of the rent from the city's shops must be submitted to the Four Seas Commerce League on time, and the remaining twenty percent will be at my free disposal.

The standard for paying rent will be based on the size of a normal Rank 2 city.

Although White Cloud City is just an inconspicuous small city among many, to me, it is at least the Foundation for the development of my Wang Family, and its significance is extraordinary!"

"Congratulations, City Lord, on acquiring the Foundation for development! With the City Lord's talent and perseverance, you will surely succeed in achieving Golden Core in the future!"

Huang Youcai was the first to offer his congratulations.

"Congratulations, Husband!" Qin Wenjun and the four women also said in unison.

Wang Bin smiled and waved his hand, saying,

"This matter is just a small beginning on the path of my Wang Family's development; it's enough that you all know about it.

Next, I want to announce the second matter: this new female Cultivator is Du Xiaoyue, the Dao Companion I recently found in West Sea City.

From now on, her status in the City Lord's Mansion will be equal to that of Wen Jun and the others. I hope everyone can coexist peacefully from now on."

As expected, Yang Yuhuan thought to herself, her sisters had increased again, and her cultivation was much higher than her own.

Huang Youcai and Chen Jun only glanced at Du Xiaoyue before averting their gaze.

Especially Chen Jun, he was not interested in this; he only wanted to focus on Foundation Establishment now.
