Chapter 517 - Chapter 517 Wealth Transfer (2/2)
Suddenly absorbing so many secular individuals had made it difficult to govern them at once but enforcing the rules of Xuanqing Sect on them directly could easily alienate these people.
“`
They could only draft a set of laws in the shortest time and release them to the outer disciples.
“Right!” Jin Lingsu suddenly stood up, “Everything has been settled, don’t you want to go home and see your wife and daughter?”
Chen Yu shrugged, “Tong Group is at a critical moment right now, and we still have to integrate the assets that have just been merged. Going back now would only cause chaos.”
While they were talking, an extremely oddly dressed man suddenly appeared outside the grand hall. His speed was very fast, and his body seemed somewhat ethereal; the young Taoist standing nearby didn’t even see him.
Chen Yu frowned and immediately walked over.
“Who are you, sir, to dare intrude into the sacred ground of Xuanqing Sect uninvited!”
The man narrowed his eyes and took out a scroll from his body.
“Mr. Chen, you’re implementing a great purge in the secular world with such a high profile, have you forgotten that you are the Sect Leader of a Taoist sect?”
Chen Yu had a full head of black lines—how come this guy started off with a lecturing tone?
“Sir, have we met before?”
The man did not answer but merely stuffed the scroll into Chen Yu’s hands.
“There are three thousand Taoist sects, and as the Sect Leader of one, you should abide by the Taoist laws. There is an assembly at Sacred Mountain in ten days, and I hope you can arrive on time.”
As the words fell, the man turned and walked away, his steps fading into the ether.
Chen Yu opened the scroll in his hand with a gloomy face; it was densely inscribed with strange runes, which appeared to be Taoist script.
“What is Sacred Mountain? What does that guy want you to do?”
Jin Lingsu moved closer, full of curiosity.
The man who had just been there was incredibly powerful; he had come to the grand hall of Xuanqing Sect without a sound and left just as quietly, and it seemed like the Taoist nearby had no idea anything had happened here.
Chen Yu closed the scroll.
“I think I’ve heard Heavenly Master Long Tian mention before that Xuanqing Sect is just one of the Taoist orders, and sometimes we have to follow the Taoist laws. It seems something has happened, and they want to gather all the Taoist sects together.”
Jin Lingsu suddenly lost interest. She was only captivated by gold and treasures; to her, matters between sects were the most boring of all.
“Right, I’ve heard there’s going to be an auction at the foot of Tianhu Mountain, specifically auctioning the exotic treasures collected by the families of the Knights of the Round Table. Could you get me a VIP pass? I want to see it.”
Chen Yu had a full head of black lines, “Why don’t I talk to people downstairs and have them send the treasures directly to you?”
Jin Lingsu’s eyes shone, “That would be great! Then I wouldn’t have to spend any money!”
Chen Yu shook his head helplessly.
“Those are treasures that the families fought fiercely to obtain, not something I can just give away with a word! I’ve got nothing better to do anyway, so I might as well come with you for a look.”
Jin Lingsu immediately became excited, as she had long set her sights on these items.
The treasures accumulated by the Knights of the Round Table were no ordinary items; in addition to being vast in number, each was a rare and precious gem.
Aside from the Milore and Gana families, the partial fixed assets from the remaining eleven families were all transported to Tianhu Mountain.
Transporting these items used a total of three hundred large trucks.
