Chapter 1719: Terrifying Dong Mingyu

The Martial Heaven Alliance controlled a huge part of the entire continent’s wealth . The Martial Heaven Alliance had its own ores and businesses .

Originally, the Martial Heaven Alliance was established by all the continent’s Righteous sects . Although the Martial Heaven Alliance had such a huge amount of health, they were only in charge of overseeing it . They did not have the authority to directly use it .

A portion of the Martial Heaven Alliance’s wealth came from a yearly tax each large sect had to pay . Another portion came from the Martial Heaven Alliance’s own mines and businesses, and another portion came from battle spoils won in battles against the Corrupt path .

This wealth was jointly owned, and each sect would pay tax according to its scale . Considering just how many Righteous sects there were, the total sum was an astonis.h.i.+ng amount .

After all these years, the amount of wealth that it had acc.u.mulated could only be described as terrifying . However, this wealth had to be spent on defending the Righteous path, raising geniuses, and rewarding merit . Furthermore, any large expenditures had to have the alliance head’s personal nod of approval, as well as the Elders’ . That was to avoid anyone being selfish or corrupt and abusing that wealth .

Now, Long Chen had led the Xuantian Dao Sect’s disciples to defend the entire Eastern Xuan Region’s Devil Abyss . That meant that the Xuantian Dao Sect was receiving all the Eastern Xuan Region’s reward .

In the past, each time the Devil Abyss erupted, it would mean the sacrifices of countless disciples . The compensation for these disciples went to their sects .

A single region’s sects numbered in the tens of thousands . Each sect was given a reward based on their accomplishments, and just those rewards were extremely plentiful . Because the rest of the Eastern Xuan Region’s sects had been instigated by others to not partic.i.p.ate in the Devil Abyss, all their reward was going to the Xuantian Dao Sect .

What shocked Long Chen was that the reward set for the Eastern Xuan Region was a staggering sum of fifteen billion spirit crystals .

However, thinking about it, when fifteen billion spirit crystals were split between tens of thousands of sects, just how much could each sect get?

It wasn’t just the sum that was shocking, but it also allowed Long Chen to see the power of the Martial Heaven Alliance . After all, the Eastern Xuan Region was just one of the four weaker regions .

The Central Xuan Region’s reward was definitely even greater because it had more sects and more devil creatures .

“Long Chen, I actually have to apologize for this matter of the rewards . Because the rewards for the eastern, western, southern, and northern regions always have to stay the same according to the rules…” Qu Jianying couldn’t help apologizing . This rule was based on the Devil Abyss’s formation that split the devil creatures into several channels . The Central Xuan Region was always the main force, so it got a larger reward, while the rest of the devil creatures were split between the other four regions equally, so the reward was split equally as well .

However, Long Chen had killed an even larger number of the devil creatures due to Heavenly Fate Island’s sabotage . According to reason, he should obtain an even greater reward .

Unfortunately, that matter was an accident, something unexpected . So if she wanted to reward Long Chen, she would have to go through the Elders and have this matter fully investigated first .

Heavenly Fate Island was so crafty, and they couldn’t have left behind any evidence . Since this matter would remain murky and unclear, it would be very difficult to give Long Chen his big reward .

Furthermore, Long Chen’s kill points had explosively grown, to the point where there was no longer a number . That was also something that had not occurred in the history of the Devil Slaughtering Rankings .

Qu Jianying was clearer than anyone just how strict the reward system of the Martial Heaven Alliance was . Without bringing out all the evidence, obtaining the reward was very, very difficult .

That was why Long Chen’s current reward was just the base reward . The aftermath of Heavenly Fate Island was not taken into account, so those Life Star level winged devils he had slain were not counted .

If Long Chen wished to persevere in chasing after that reward, the Elder Hall of the Martial Heaven Alliance would send experts to investigate this matter, but with their strict rules, the chances of him obtaining the reward were slim .

Qu Jianying disliked these strict and unbending rules, but there was nothing she could do about them, as they were pa.s.sed down from countless years ago . Furthermore, without these strict rules, many people would be able to pull tricks with the reward, leading to greater corruption and greed . At that time, the day of the Martial Heaven Alliance’s collapse would not be far .

So despite how much Long Chen had done, she couldn’t help him, making her feel guilty .

“It’s fine . In any case, this is enough money for me . ” Long Chen smiled . The reason he lacked money was because he needed to rebuild the Xuantian Dao Sect . Fifteen billion spirit crystals was more than enough .

After discussing it with Li Tianxuan, they decided to split the fifteen billion spirit crystals into three even portions . One portion would go to the Heaven Splitting Battle Sect .

Li Tianxuan told Long Chen that in truth, the Heaven Splitting Battle Sect was so poor that they had nothing to eat . They had been reducing the number of disciples they were recruiting with each pa.s.sing year .

However, the Heaven Splitting Battle Sect cared far too much about face . If Li Tianxuan were to give them this money, they definitely wouldn’t accept it . It would be up to Long Chen to handle that .
