Changsheng Xiuxian: I can see through everything

Chapter 251: Handover Island (Subscription Request)

Two months after the wedding banquet, Chen Xuan took his third wife and his clansmen on the sect's airship, first to Jinyang Sect, and then to Pingyang County on the border of Song State.

From Pingyang County, we boarded a second-class top-grade warship and headed east.

Three days later, after braving the wind and waves, they arrived at Wolong Island.

This is the family dojo that Jin Yangzong exchanged for him.

Wolong Island is located in the western part of the Dongshan Islands of Song State. It is surrounded by the sea and is thousands of miles away from the nearest Pingyang County.

According to the sect's records, Wolong Island is about 800 miles long and 300 miles wide. It has a vast area and ranks third in area among the Dongshan Islands.

It was originally the territory of the Nangong family, a family of cultivators, with seven foundation-building cultivators and over a thousand Qi-cultivating cultivators, who governed millions of ordinary mortals.

The original small high-quality spiritual vein on the island has been upgraded to the best quality after thousands of years of unremitting cultivation by the Nangong family.

In addition, there are two small medium-grade spiritual veins and seven micro spiritual veins on the island.

The Nangong family's main sources of income are cultivating spiritual fields, opening markets, hunting sea beasts, and mining star stone mines.

Ordinary people make a living by farming, supplemented by fishing and hunting, and their lives are quite poor.

Wolong Island is vast. Like other islands, it is mainly composed of mountains and hills, which account for nearly half of the island's area.

Around the mountains and hills, there are widely distributed terraces and terraces of varying widths, accounting for another 40% of the area.

The coast is mostly covered with tropical rainforests and various coral reefs.

Only one-tenth of the plain area is suitable for cultivation.

This is the core area where the Nangong family monks and ordinary mortals live.

On the warship, Chen Xuan looked at the vast Wolong Island with a smile on his face, feeling relaxed.

"Master, is this the second-level top-grade dojo you exchanged for from the Jinyang Sect?"

Beside him, an old monk in purple robes asked softly.

"Uncle Ren, as you can see, this is the island."

This person's name is Zhou Shiren, Zhou Liqi's uncle, and he is a foundation-building cultivator specially sent by the Zhou family to support Chen Xuan.

In the early stage of foundation building, he was a second-level weapon refiner, accompanied by more than ten Zhou family cultivators, most of whom were weapon refinery apprentices.

It's not just the Zhou family.

Su Zhengming brought more than ten Su family cultivators, including three alchemy apprentices.

The Jiang family's patriarch Jiang Liguang personally led the team and brought all the elites of the clan, including Jiang Yingxing.

Jiang Liguang only has the eighth level of Qi training, and his profession is a spiritual plant husband. All the children in his family are spiritual plant apprentices.

Wulong Mountain is just a tiny spiritual vein, and the Jiang family lives a very difficult life.

Upon hearing that Chen Xuan was going to the island to establish the family business, Jiang Liguang only left behind a few old and weak members of the clan, and the few elite descendants in the clan came out in full force.

All the people including the three wives were interviewed by Chen Xuan.

Before coming, everyone had a private conversation.

Since I have followed him to Wolong Island, I must put the interests of the Chen family first.

If anyone betrays the Chen family, no matter their background, don't blame him for being ruthless.

If you can't do it, you can just quit.

More than a dozen people were replaced along the way.

In this way, he selected more than forty monks to follow him to develop the foundation of Wolong Island.

When Chen Xuan approached Wolong Island on a warship, the dock on the island was already full of people, who were the monks from the Nangong family who came to take over.

"Master Chu and Master Tian from the sect will be arriving soon. When they complete the handover with the Nangong family, this island will completely belong to the Chen family."

"However, this island is quite large, and I don't know if there are enough people."

The Nangong family has more than a thousand cultivators, but now following Chen Xuan are only more than forty cultivators from his three wives' families, and a few servants such as Wang Fugui and Chen Pingan.

Apart from Chen Xuan, there is only Zhou Shiren, a foundation-building cultivator.

"It's enough."

Chen Xuan was not worried about this.

"Uncle Ren, don't worry. There are quite a few independent cultivators living on the island. We can recruit some of them when the time comes."

"The Patriarch is right. There's no need to rush."

There are not only cultivators from the Nangong family on Wolong Island, but also independent cultivators working for the Nangong family, totaling more than 3,000 people.

The Nangong family definitely doesn't want to relocate with so many independent cultivators.

As for the security on the island, Chen Xuan was not worried at all.

For a period of time after the handover, there were two Jindan Zhenren in charge of Wolong Island.

The third-level formation master Chu Zhenren led his disciples to expand it into a third-level protective formation, and Zhenren Tian from the Battle Formation Hall led his disciples to maintain public order.

In fact, Chen Xuan knew very well that Master Tian came to protect Master Chu.

Relatively speaking, formation masters are not good at fighting.

And Master Chu is the only third-level formation master in Jinyang Sect.

For at least three months, Chen Xuan doesn't have to worry about the security of Wolong Island.

"The number of cultivators is increasing, but the number of new spiritual veins is decreasing. With Wolong Island as my family base, where I can farm, hunt, and accumulate resources, I can continue to improve and eventually condense the Golden Core."

Chen Xuan smiled and said, "Don't worry, Uncle Ren. Since I chose this island, I have my own plans."

"That's right. The Patriarch is the top of the Seven Sects Competition."

Zhou Shiren replied with a smile.

In order to safely survive the infinite demonic calamity and the great war between Taoism and demons, Chen Xuan had to make preparations early.

In the world of cultivation, wealth, friends, land and law are all indispensable.

Now, he used the magical seven-colored jade ring to exchange for the Wolong Island to make up for the last shortcoming of "land".

Instead of fighting openly and secretly with others in the sect, it is better to jump out of the circle, form your own system, and walk out a brighter path.

When you reach the foundation-building stage and have a certain level of strength and territory, you can start to put into practice a lot of knowledge and ideas from your previous life.

The warship docked and the head of the Nangong family led the clansmen to greet them in person.

With the Zhou family's reputation as the City Lord's Mansion and the title of being the top of the Seven Sects Competition, the cultivators of the Nangong family have great respect for Chen Xuan and others.

In fact, they were not disgusted by Chen Xuan's arrival, but were very happy about it.

The Jinyang Sect used Tianmu Mountain, a similar second-level top-grade spiritual land, to exchange this island with them.

Compared with Wolong Island, Tianmu Mountain has much greater development potential.

That night, the Nangong family hosted a banquet to entertain Chen Xuan and others. After the banquet, the head of the Nangong family and Chen Xuan met secretly to discuss the matter.

The two signed a family alliance agreement and a document to support each other.

The head of the Nangong family hopes that Chen Xuan will treat the collateral relatives and secular relatives who remain on Wolong Island well.

After they have established themselves in the new territory, they will take in their collateral relatives and secular relatives in batches depending on the situation.

Chen Xuan had no objection to this.

He frankly said that he would never target the Nangong family members and secular relatives.

Except for some core positions, all are retained.

In the future, if there is an opportunity, we will trade with the Nangong family and support each other.

The Nangong family sees Chen Xuan's potential, and Chen Xuan hopes for a smooth handover.

There was no conflict of interest between the two companies, so this alliance went quite smoothly.

A few days later, Master Chu and Master Tian arrived riding on spiritual weapons.

In front of the two real people, the Nangong family handed over Wolong Island's money and grain accounts, household registration, case files, warehouses, classics, geography and many other matters.

In fact, these are irrelevant.

The most important thing is the recognition of Jin Yangzong.

In front of the two real people, the Nangong family handed over the jurisdiction of Wolong Island, and Chen Xuan signed in approval.

Afterwards, more than a thousand monks from the Nangong family left the island and went to Tianmu Mountain to start a new life.

The protective formation of Wolong Island is temporarily under the charge of Master Chu, while public security is under the charge of Master Tian.

About three months later, Master Chu will be able to upgrade the Wolong Island defense formation to the third level, which is enough to defend against attacks from third-level sea beasts and Jindan masters.

For the rest of the matters, please keep the old rules.

Chen Xuan and others moved into the Longxing Villa built by the Nangong people on Wolong Island.

The best rooms were assigned to Master Chu and Master Tian.

That night, Chen Xuan gave a gift to each of the disciples led by the two masters.

One thousand spirit stones per person.

Afterwards, he went to meet the two real people.

"Chen Xuan, why do you insist on having an island?"

After taking the third-level spiritual tea handed over by Chen Xuan, Master Chu asked.

"It's a vast territory, rich in seafood, and has no external threats except for sea beasts. It's relatively isolated and easy to manage."

Chen Xuan said calmly.

"Also, some of the inheritances from the ancient immortal sects can be put into practice here. If successful, they will be donated to the sect in exchange for merit."

Master Chu nodded.

Anyone who can take the top spot in the Seven Sects Competition and obtain the inheritance of the ancient immortal sect can definitely not be a fool.

However, this kind of island has a vast area, but there are not many spiritual fields available for cultivation and few mineral veins. If one wants to make a big splash, the upper limit is obviously not high.

The Nangong family has put in all their efforts to cultivate a small spiritual vein to the second-level top grade.

It is basically impossible to go any further.

The monks from outside are even more unwilling to live on this island.

"Just think about it."

Master Chu didn't ask any more questions.

A third-level formation master focuses all his attention on the formation and doesn't bother to care about human relationships and worldly affairs.

Chen Xuan is a peerless genius among the younger generation in the sect, so he said a few more words.

Master Tian is a sword cultivator with outstanding combat abilities, but he is a quiet person who rarely speaks.

The next day, Chen Xuan arranged the duties of the monks who came with him.

Zhou Shiren is the elder of the clan and is responsible for weapon refining.

Jiang Zhengming is the elder of the clan and is responsible for alchemy.

Jiang Liguang is the elder of the clan and is responsible for matters concerning spiritual plants.

Wang Fugui is the chief steward of the Chen family, in charge of all financial and diplomatic affairs.

Li Ping'an is the head of the family guards and he selected a group of young monks to take on the guard duties.

All the original staff of Wolong Island were retained.

All policies remain unchanged for the time being.

In addition, there are some temporary jobs.

For example, Jiang Zhengming temporarily assigned some manpower to build artificial swamps and bamboo forests according to the Feiyunling model to cultivate red-eyed green bamboo snakes and golden dart frogs.

Zhou Shiren secretly raised more than a dozen Thousand Mile Wind Chasing Beasts and made an antidote for the strange insects.

Cultivating exotic insects is extremely profitable. Now that he has the land and manpower, Chen Xuan naturally will not give up.

He has no grudge against Lingshi.

Next, Chen Xuan settled his strange insects and chose a habitat for them in Longxing Villa.

Especially the Jade-faced Queen Bee, after her last mating, she began to produce new species of poisonous bees continuously.

As long as there is enough monster meat and insect spirit essence, an army of 100,000 poisonous bees can be quickly established.

Moreover, this swarm of poisonous bees is obviously stronger than the last one.

Inheriting the excellent qualities of the Black Shield Demon Bee, each poisonous bee is born with insect patterns, and its defense and speed are greatly improved.

The cooperation with the Five Poison Sect is also progressing smoothly.

Every ten days, the Five Poison Sect would send about 50,000 poisonous insect corpses.

After Chen Xuan condensed it, the venom essence was returned in full to the Five Poison Sect.

Part of the insect spirit essence is used to make insect-raising spirit pills, which are taken back by the monks of the Five Poison Sect to feed the strange insects.

Most of it was intercepted and used by him and the strange insect in his hand for meditation.

The Five Poison Sect is quite sincere in this cooperation.

Every ten days, when the corpses of poisonous insects were delivered, a certain commission would be offered, ranging from three to five thousand to more than ten thousand spirit stones.

This also made Chen Xuan, who was in financial trouble, feel relieved.
