Kill the three golden pills in anger, escort them with witnesses
One hundred taels of silver each.
The gleaming silver was placed into the hands of these old men, who had just turned fifty yet already possessed hair as white as snow.
This was wealth they had never touched in their entire lives.
Yet, for a Cultivator, this amount of money was merely the cost of a cup of tea or a single meal.
Once all the silver had been distributed, Shen Fan commanded in a clear voice: 'According to their registered hometowns, dispatch Disciple teams to escort them in batches, ensuring everyone returns to their homeland safely.'
At the same time, randomly select ten witnesses from the remaining people to supervise the journey and report the truth upon their return.'
This arrangement by Shen Fan could be described as watertight.
It not only prevented any suspicion of deceit but also provided the generous treatment of being escorted personally by Cultivators, leaving everyone feeling as if they were in a dream.
Most of these old men came from the same region; even if there were occasional discrepancies, they were fellow villagers separated by only a few dozen miles.
In less than half a day, they had taken their silver, changed into new clothes, and embarked on the journey home.
Old Man Huang was one of them.
This old craftsman, who had spent half his life blacksmithing in Taoyuan Village, had been taken away from his hometown by Cultivators years ago just like a conscript.
He still remembered that those Immortals had said, 'Consider yourselves lucky,' at that time.
Three or four years had passed in the blink of an eye, and he didn't even know if his family was still safe.
The young witnesses accompanying them followed silently behind the group.
They would return to the mining area to continue working after the escort was completed, and they would witness the reality of all this with their own eyes.
If this were just a performance, those hundreds of eyes would never lie together.
...
...
From afar.
Old Man Huang truly saw his hometown.
Taoyuan Village, that hamlet nestled between two mountains.
The houses located halfway up the mountain.
One of them was their home.
The Immortals descended.
Golden Light Peak's recruitment of people for mining was also justified and reasonable within the Tianxuan Sect and the fourteen cities of Yunzhou.
These people seemed to have received the news long ago.
The entire village gathered at the entrance of the village, waiting expectantly.
After the Tianxuan Sect Disciples brought these old men back.
The entire village erupted into deafening cheers.
'It's real! It's real!'
These old men who had stayed at Golden Light Peak for three years and returned with one hundred taels of silver were now weeping uncontrollably.
After the escorting Immortals had made arrangements with the local village head and even the local prefecture government.
They finally departed completely.
This could also be considered a form of protection for them.
After all, it was possible for four or five old men to return to the same village together.
The total amount of silver they carried could reach four or five hundred taels.
For outlaws, this was definitely a case of 'a man who flaunts his wealth invites theft.'
Shen Fan had truly anticipated every possible consequence.
When the escorting Disciples returned.
When the hundreds of witnesses returned.
Shen Fan's actions truly gained the recognition of tens of thousands of people.
Opening mountains and building houses.
Forging tools.
An eight-hour shift system per day, and a reward point system.
Everything was fully implemented within just one month.
At this moment.
Shen Fan was the god of all the miners at Golden Light Peak.
Cultivators building structures.
In just ten to fifteen days.
Houses capable of accommodating tens of thousands of people were built halfway up the mountain.
However.
For nearly one hundred thousand miners.
To move in, besides being a family unit of three, they also needed the combined points of the family.
Only after meeting both requirements could they move in.
Welfare!
It was the best Sharp Weapon to persuade these one hundred thousand people.
And this kind of system.
Was also promoted by Shen Fan to the other spiritual mines currently under the Tianxuan Sect.
Rumble!
Suddenly.
Golden Light Peak.
Everyone began to tremble completely.
A tremendous pressure, like Mount Tai pressing down, struck.
Immediately afterwards, a mocking voice spread throughout the entire mountain forest.
'Third Brother Su Jian! Long time no see!'
A familiar voice, a familiar aura.
Pei Xinglan arrived on his sword.
The one he was looking for was Third Brother Su Jian.
Regardless of who killed their Golden Core Stage Elders.
But he couldn't even defeat Third Brother Su Jian, so how could he go looking for anyone else?
Shen Fan, who was giving a long speech to the miners, suddenly smiled.
Then he looked at Third Brother Su Jian and nodded.
The opposing side had three Golden Core Stage Early Stage experts and five hundred strong Disciples.
And on this side.
Shen Fan only let Third Brother Su Jian go out to fight alone.
Why?
Because Shen Fan no longer trusted Third Brother Su Jian, but Pei Xinglan.
Ever since he met this guy.
Although he had only met him a few times.
Shen Fan knew that this person was a martial arts fanatic.
He had set his target on Third Brother Su Jian.
He would not use his position to oppress others.
Even if it took a lifetime, he would use his own strength to surpass Third Brother Su Jian.
And only then would he return to do other things.
Outside Golden Light Peak.
Sword Qi crossed and surged.
The mountain forests and gullies were like heaven collapsing and earth splitting.
However.
The others who had come along.
Saw this scene and were stunned on the spot.
'What should we do, Elder?'
The others cast their gazes upon the three Golden Core Stage Elders.
The three looked at each other.
One of them said: 'It can't be that bizarre, right? There are three of us; even if the Tianxuan Sect Sect Master came, he would have to avoid our edge! Who is in this mountain that could kill us?'
Hearing this, a sense of heroism soared into the clouds.
The confidence unique to the three Golden Core Stage experts, under the convergence of their auras.
Reached a peak state.
Immediately afterwards.
They led more than five hundred people to attack Golden Light Peak.
Golden Light Peak.
Five Elements Flag, Nine Palaces Black Flag Order.
Wrapped the entire spiritual mine area tightly.
Shen Fan really hadn't expected.
That Pei Xinglan had so little deterrent power within their Sect.
Even after he brought a team here.
The others had actually acted without authorization.
Immediately afterwards.
The assault team soared into the sky.
Glaring angrily at those people.
And at this moment.
The three Golden Core Stage Elders no longer hid their cultivation.
The power of the Golden Core Stage swept in all directions.
Instantly enveloping the entire Golden Light Peak.
Shen Fan saw this scene and suddenly smiled.
Then he turned his head and said mockingly: 'Oh my! Three Golden Core Stage experts, not easy to deal with! Brothers, what should we do?'
Everyone at this moment had complete faith in Shen Fan.
Then they said in unison: 'What else is there to do? Senior Brother, you can just kill them all yourself!'
Immediately afterwards, the hundred-man team quickly spread out.
Then formed a surrounding circle.
Enclosing these five hundred plus people within it.
These past few days.
Because of the unique nature of the Golden Light Peak spiritual mine.
The Sect had sent more people to guard it.
Now at Golden Light Peak, there were over 1,500 Tianxuan Sect Disciples alone.
And those three Golden Core Stage Elders didn't waste any words.
Although they were under orders from Pei Xinglan when they came.
They had secret orders from the Sect Master privately.
They could act independently depending on the situation.
At this moment, seeing the situation at Golden Light Peak.
The three exchanged glances and knew that Golden Light Peak could be taken with a snap of their fingers.
However, the next moment.
Hundreds of black shadows instantly appeared beside Shen Fan.
Immediately afterwards, several powerful auras of the Golden Core Stage swept in from all directions.
The three Golden Core Stage Elders were instantly submerged by the Corpse Puppets.
And these three were quickly refined into Corpse Puppets by Shen Fan.
Looking into the distance again.
Third Brother Su Jian and Pei Xinglan had already reached a heated stage.
Shen Fan went directly to the ground, started eating hotpot, and watched all of this.
