I just reached the maximum level, and you want me to be a puppet emperor?

Chapter 289: Even the clan leader must work hard! (Please subscribe and vote)

When he had nothing to do, Li Chen asked Mu Qingrou about her expansion plans.

Mu Qingrou told her plan. She intended to develop the back mountain so that she could expand the number of disciples to 15,000. If there were too many, it would be difficult for her to manage, and she would not have any extra resources.

Fifteen thousand is already a very large sect, surpassing the peak period of Ziyun Immortal Mansion in the past.

When she said that, Li Chen remembered something and asked, "If you have enough resources, can you continue to expand?"

Mu Qingrou nodded, and after thinking for a moment, she said, "Although it's difficult, I think I can do it, at least up to 30,000 or 40,000. But in terms of resources, I'm afraid I'll be a little stretched."

There is no other way. The resources in the cultivation world are limited. Mu Qingrou feels that being able to expand to 15,000 is already the limit.

This is after the emergence of the sea people and the increase of resources.

If the sea clan had not appeared, the sect would have hardly been able to support the tens of thousands of disciples.

This does not include outer disciples and registered disciples.

When Li Chen heard this, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes and he suddenly had an idea.

He smiled slightly and said, "In fact, you can 'loan' some resources from the court for the development of the sect, and then repay a certain amount of interest and principal every quarter."

After hearing this, Mu Qingrou frowned slightly, obviously hesitant about this proposal.

She whispered, "Loan? Your Majesty, isn't this a bit risky? What if the sect can't repay it?"

Li Chen waved his hand, signaling her not to worry, and continued: "This model can allow your sect to quickly accumulate disciples. Since you are accumulating disciples, then the disciples can definitely do tasks and brush resources.

The more disciples you have, the faster you can complete tasks and the stronger you will be. This is actually a gamble on development. Once the passage to all races in the heavens is opened, you don't want to fall behind other sects, right?
At that time, who can reach the top of the myriad clans will depend on the strength of their subordinates, that is the hard truth. "

After hearing this, Mu Qingrou's eyes gradually brightened.

She thought carefully about Li Chen's words and felt that they made sense.

The emergence of a sea tribe has already caused many sects to expand their enrollment.

If myriad races appear, won’t that mean more resources and more disciples?

Taking out a loan is a risky method, but it is worth a try.

It can not only quickly expand the sect, but also prepare for future battles and seize the initiative.

Mu Qingrou pondered for a moment and said seriously: "Your Majesty is right, this model can indeed be tried, but I am worried that other sects will have similar ideas, and the competition will be even more intense at that time."

Li Chen smiled, with a bit of confidence in his tone: "Competition is a good thing. If the sect is strong, doesn't it mean that the human race is strong? Then the myriad races should be afraid of us."

Is the sect afraid of competition?

Haven't you all been competing since childhood?

However, this time the competition is not an internal fight, but a competition of development and conquest over all races in the heavens.

There must be benefits for Li Chen to do this. As the Emperor of Man, as long as he controls these sects, won't his status be higher?

This kind of investment is rewarding. Not only does it bring interest, but it also makes these sects listen to him and be willing to work for him.

In this way, everyone is willing. I won't force you if you don't want to take the loan. But if others take the loan to become stronger, and then open the dungeon of all races in the world, don't cry to me if you fall behind.

Seeing Mu Qingrou's moved expression, Li Chen knew that she was persuaded.

Which force doesn't want to become bigger and stronger?

As long as the steady Mu Qingrou thinks it is okay, Li Chen can make a judgment. The leaders of other sects are even crazier.

Especially those who are at the saint level are far-sighted and very confident.

Many people might be afraid of opening a dungeon of all races in the heavens, but those who are at the Saint level are definitely not afraid.

How could someone who could break through to the Saint realm have such high levels of cultivation if he wasn't ruthless?
Those who are afraid of death dare not break through.

They knew better than anyone that in the future war between the myriad races, if they didn't treat the myriad races as food, they would be treated as food by the myriad races. However, this was just Li Chen's idea now. Later, Li Chen would definitely discuss the interest rate with the ministers, and the loan of resources was not given casually.

The imperial court will examine the sect’s credit and background, and also require collateral.

If repayment is not possible, the collateral will be seized.

Of course, they can also redeem it, but the price will be higher.

As the court that lends money, it is definitely not a loss.

And what is credit?

Isn’t credit determined by whether these sects listen to the imperial court? Only when they listen can they be credited.

Wouldn't this solve the sect problem that has plagued the Tiance Dynasty for thousands of years?

Li Chen didn't even have to use powerful force to suppress them to make them obey.

Once this model is successfully implemented, it may allow millions or even tens of millions of practitioners to work for Li Chen.

Perhaps the sea clan and all other clans did not expect that Li Chen did not even treat them as human beings, but just treated them as cultivation resources.

In the future they will understand why human cultivators are so cruel. It turns out they learned it from the Human Emperor.

While Li Chen was discussing these things with Mu Qingrou, his identity was already spreading like wildfire outside.

At first, Zhen Yanqing, the saint of the Bi Yue Immortal Sect, wanted to come to Ziyun Pavilion to visit Li Chen, but was rejected by Liu Tang of Ziyun Immortal Mansion.

The two started arguing outside Ziyun Pavilion.

Although Zhen Yanqing felt a little resentful, she did not dare to force her way into Ziyun Pavilion.

After all, the mansion lord Mu Qingrou is still in there. He is a powerful saint and few dare to mess with him.

Seeing that he couldn't get in, Zhen Yanqing took a step back, with a bit of unwillingness in his tone: "Liu Tang, tell me, what is the identity of that Mr. Cheng?"

How could Liu Tang dare to reveal Li Chen's true identity? He could only make a few excuses: "Fairy Zhen, Master Cheng is just a distinguished guest of our Ziyun Immortal Mansion. His specific identity cannot be disclosed."

After hearing this, Zhen Yanqing became even angrier.

She felt that Liu Tang was obviously just trying to get her to accept her request, and that Li Chen's identity must be something more than simple.

So all kinds of rumors spread from her.

This is actually the first time it has appeared here, and the rumors are not as exaggerated as the actual situation.

Because it is widely rumored that Li Chen is the son of God of a hidden sect, and some say that he is an ancient freak who has unlocked the seal of his dormancy.

Even though this is outrageous, it is not impossible considering Li Chen's strength.

But the truth is, this person is an emperor at the Saint level, and they couldn't guess it no matter how hard they tried.

Son of God and Ancient Freak are both titles for people with extraordinary strength.

But Li Chen, with his own strength, raised the status of the Human Emperor to a terrifying level.

It is a taboo that these practitioners dare not mention.

It can also be said that they have great respect for the Human Emperor Li Chen.

Because she was busy with the expansion of enrollment, Mu Qingrou left first.

The next day, in the Tianxian Palace, the moment Li Chen appeared, he attracted everyone's attention.

Liu Tang and Le Li, the two contestants on the Heavenly Immortal Ranking, were like Li Chen's bodyguards, guarding him on the left and right, asking people around them to make way and maintain order.

Surrounded by the crowd, Li Chen came to the assessment area.
