Eternal Beast Taming Family

At this moment, it wasn't just Chu Qinhui who broke through in both dynasties; spiritual radiance flickered and the laws of the Dao trembled throughout the dynasties.

In a short period of time, many families broke through from the eighth rank to the seventh rank, and from the seventh rank to the sixth rank.

Some sixth-rank families with deep foundations even tentatively sent their king-rank seeds to attempt to break through to the king rank, hoping to become true fifth-rank feudal royal families.

However, these things were naturally done in secret. Although the Chu family always appeared to support the advancement of the family, and even bestowed treasures upon some families when they were promoted, the Chu family always did so.

However, at that time, all promotions were to lower ranks, and no family had ever been promoted to royalty.

At this time, the rules of heaven and earth are abundant. If a family were to truly ascend to the status of a royal family, no one would dare to speculate on the Chu family's true intentions. If the Chu family were to secretly obstruct them, these low-ranking families would have no power to resist.

Regardless of the circumstances, the tides of spiritual energy and Daoist aura did indeed spread across the territories of the two dynasties, and all the contract masters gained considerable benefits to varying degrees.

Within the territory of the Mortal Dynasty, those ancient dynasties and imperial forces that wanted to emerge from the dead end due to the great changes in the rules of heaven and earth, upon sensing this energy tide, unanimously ceased all their actions.

An ancient, somewhat frail body stood swaying at the valley entrance, its expression inscrutable as it gazed at the surging tides between heaven and earth, and let out a soft sigh.

"The great changes in this world have only just begun. Within this dynasty, there have already been beings of the Radiant Rank who have fallen. These two dynasties... are very complex. We should postpone our plans to leave the valley."

A fully armed soldier beside him bowed and clasped his hands in greeting, "Yes, sir."

Within a crack suspended in the sky, numerous kings gathered before it, their expressions equally grim as they gazed at the surging energy tides within the heavens and earth.

"A king has fallen, but his name has not been spread. He must have come from beyond the heavens."

"If someone from outer space could be attacked and killed within this dynasty, wouldn't that prove that this dynasty is even more terrifying?"

The extraterrestrial rulers were far more powerful, a fact almost universally acknowledged by these ancient races.

But now that one of them has perished here, these kings are even more horrified.

"So what's next? Should we proceed with the original plan to create Tianhen?"

"Let's go back and report to His Majesty for further discussion. It seems the plan to go out will have to be postponed."

"A life has fallen from the heavens just like that. I wonder if the Heavenly Venerables will do anything about it? Hehe."

Of course, there were also some kings who just wanted to watch the show, and one of them couldn't help but chuckle softly.

These two Jedi factions weren't the only ones with similar thoughts. All the other Jedi factions within the Mortal Dynasty that had previously been active quietly ceased their actions after this energy tide was triggered.

Instead, they quietly dispatched many skilled spies from within the Jedi to infiltrate the Mortal Dynasty undetected.

However, they sent out spies, unaware that the current Fansheng Dynasty was completely different from any previous powerful dynasty, because every person in the Fansheng Dynasty had their identity documented.

Without proof, they could not enter the city, and even if they forged documents, they would not pass the detection of the Dream Spirits in the Dream Realm. They were almost discovered as soon as they started to impersonate the city and were then captured by the soldiers guarding the city.

In the capital city, in the grand hall where matters were discussed.

Chu Shengfan made a rare appearance on the throne; he almost never appeared here. Therefore, the ministers in the hall were somewhat tense, their expressions unusually solemn.

No one wanted to make a mistake in front of the King.

Chu Shengfan remained silent, his expression indifferent, acting as a silent listener as the ministers discussed their solutions to important matters within the dynasty, which were then voted on in a unified manner.

"In recent days, many families in various cities and regions have been promoted in rank, and numerous rewards have been distributed like water. The national treasury is being rapidly depleted. If this continues, I'm afraid it won't last much longer. I wonder if any of you have any good solutions?"

The one who spoke was Luo Bingyang, the minister in charge of the national treasury. He was originally a servant in the Chu family and was assigned to work by Chu Shengfan's side.

Later, Chu Shengfan did not return home for a period of time, and she continued to manage Chu Shengfan's small courtyard. Only after Chu Shengfan returned after advancing to the King rank did she have more affairs to do.

He was then promoted all the way up, and now, having just entered the Domain Realm, he manages the national treasury and finances of the entire Mortal Dynasty. In other dynasties, this position would definitely be held by a member of the dynasty's clan.

It's just that the Chu family has few members, and the fact that he's being appointed to this position is enough to show the Chu family's trust and favor towards him.

His experience serves as a template for many aristocratic families who want to send their children of marriageable age to the Chu family to serve as maids or servants. If such a person were to emerge, wouldn't the prosperity of the family be a piece of cake?

Even if they don't reach that level, judging from the other maids and servants of the Chu family, they all hold important positions in various cities, and their future prospects are definitely not bad.

As Luo Bingyang finished speaking, the other ministers frowned slightly, pondering their next move.

An elderly man in purple robes spoke softly, "Could we try reducing the rewards?"

Just as the purple-robed elder spoke, a middle-aged man in indigo clothing spoke up beside him.

"No, simply reducing the rewards would go against the dynasty's founding principles. However, we can convert some of the material rewards into honorary ones."

For example, one could exchange source beast eggs of the corresponding rank for admission without examination to the dynasty academy of their respective city, or implement certain conveniences, such as tax-free policies that reduce taxes, etc.

Upon hearing his words, the other elders pondered for a moment, and many of them nodded slightly.

"This measure is not bad, but the tax cuts, whether in terms of percentage or time, must have a clear limit. They cannot be for too many years, otherwise it will be detrimental to the development of the dynasty."

The young man who had remained silent until the very end unexpectedly spoke up at this moment.

"I think that's not advisable. Our Mortal Dynasty has always promoted a policy of equality among contract masters. If we open up exemption quotas to them just because their family ranks have been promoted, what will become of them?"

Isn't that a bit unfair to the other hardworking contract master students? Using public resources as rewards seems unreasonable to me.

The other cabinet members looked at this young man who rarely spoke in meetings, and this time he spoke, directly opposing the policy that most of them agreed with.

Their gazes inevitably fell upon him, and they then recalled the young man's identity.

Thinking back, he suddenly remembered that the reason he was able to stand here at this age and level was because the Chu family had directly arranged for him to come.

I heard that he is a member of the Shen family, a subordinate family of the Chu family, named Shen Yuanxin.

Most members of the Shen family are engaged in education or work in research institutes; very few are directly involved in politics.

When he first arrived, the elders took him seriously for a while. However, he rarely spoke in meetings, as if he were there to learn and improve, so they gradually overlooked his presence.

Unexpectedly, he chose to voice his opposition while the Venerable King was present. Was he eager to prove himself in front of the Venerable King?

The senior officials couldn't help but frown slightly.
