YM778.TV Chapter 484: Clear Rewards and Punishments_1
Hand in hand, Qin Changqing and Yunyan simultaneously activated the Realm Order.
The Realm Order dissolved at once, dissipating into thin air.
In other words, this Realm Order could only be used once.
With the disappearance of the Realm Order, Qin Changqing and Yunyan appeared above the main structure of the Immortal Alliance’s capital.
There was still no one around.
“I’ll ask and see if there’s any record of wandering immortals in the Holy Land,” said Yunyan.
She took out a Communication Stone, engraved the image of the wandering immortal inside it, and prepared to inquire with the Purple Gold Holy Land.
Then, the two of them began their return journey.
A few months later, Qin Changqing and Yunyan returned to Crouching Dragon Mountain.
However, they returned in silence, without alarming anyone.
Because Yunyan was visibly pregnant and she didn’t seem ready to let anyone else know about this.
Respecting her decision, Qin Changqing took her quietly to the Qin Mansion, arranged a secluded peak for her, and plenty of maidservants to serve her.
On the way back, Yunyan also received a response from the Purple Gold Holy Land.
An elder of the Purple Gold Holy Land had searched all the records related to wandering immortals within the Holy Land but found none matching this particular immortal.
Although behind every Holy Land there are one or two wandering immortals, there are many in the Spirit Realm and the Holy Lands are not fully aware of many of them.
Becoming an immortal is difficult, but becoming a wandering immortal is also not easy.
To become a wandering immortal, one must first reach the Mahayana stage, then ascend. If the ascension fails, one is forced to become a wandering immortal.
Just think how frightening the Five Declines of Heaven-Man are, how difficult would it be to overcome them and achieve the Mahayana stage?
And yet, the number of wandering immortals is potentially higher than those in the Cultivation Realm who have reached the Mahayana stage.
The reason is simple, the lifespan of wandering immortals is too long.
Even though wandering immortals face repeated Heavenly Kalpas, the time between their Heavenly Kalpas is much longer, and some wandering immortals might have even found ways to hibernate.
As a result, even old Holy Lands probably can’t figure out how many wandering immortals are there in the Spirit Realm.
There are also wandering immortals who may not appear for tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of years and then suddenly reappear.
This man in white might belong to this type of wandering immortal.
He seemed to have never heard of the Purple Gold Holy Land.
But it’s also possible that this man in white was pretending, with some other motives in mind.
Qin Changqing won’t blindly trust him just because he is a wandering immortal and even gave them a cultivation technique.
This technique was not cultivated by Yunyan, nor by Qin Changqing.
Qin Changqing planned to wait until Tao Yao finished her retreat and then ask her.
Tao Yao was a very powerful figure among immortals, and she could see through any problems at glance.
Having returned to Qin Mansion, Yunyan started to rest and nourish the fetus while also working with Qin Changqing to inspect and allocate the gains of their journey.
“Qin Changqing, according to the Holy Land, you can choose half of the items here,” said Yunyan.
In front of them, in the large square, spirit stones and various materials were piled up like a mountain.
The Heavenly and Earthly treasures were still being cultivated in specialized bags.
They spent nearly three years this time and brought back an enormous harvest.
Just in terms of the number of spirit stones, if all were converted into lower-tier spirit stones, there would be more than one hundred million, perhaps even exceeding two hundred million.
The exact number is still unknown, as the spirit stones are all in large chunks, not yet cut up.
Cutting spirit stones takes a lot of time.
The largest spirit stone mine is a strip of more than ten miles long and over a mile wide. There must be a significant number of mid-tier and top-tier spirit stones in such a large mine.
There might even be top-tier spirit stones, spirit crystals, and spirit essence.
Now, this spirit stone mine was also brought out by Qin Changqing and placed in the square.
This trip, they could say they came back fully laden.
The resources in a small spirit realm could indeed create more than half of a Holy Land.
With these resources, the resources for the cultivation of many descendants of the Qin family, as well as Qin Changqing’s many vassals, would be ensured.
Yunyan proposed that Qin Changqing should choose half first, and the rest would go to the Purple Gold Holy Land.
After pondering for a moment, Qin Changqing started choosing.
He did not simply choose the best ones, but the ones he needed.
Seeing Qin Changqing’s actions, Yunyan’s impression of him improved even more.
“Qin Changqing, you can take more,” she said.
Though she only said these words, her meaning was clear.
She wanted Qin Changqing to take more; after all, she had the final say on how much was harvested from the small spirit realm.
Although Yunyan had not yet agreed to marry Qin Changqing, she was already leaning toward him.
Seeing Yunyan like this gave Qin Changqing hope for a second entrance into her palace.
Of course, it was impossible at the moment given her growing belly.
He would revisit the matter after the child was born.
In a few more months, Yunyan should be giving birth. The child was already showing some unusual signs, making Qin Changqing confident about the child’s extraordinary fate.
Qin Changqing felt better.
“Yunyan, these things are enough for me,” he said.
After several days, back in Qin Mansion, Qin Changqing had finally finished allocating all the items.
He did not take excessive amounts.
He took half in accordance with their previous agreement.
Of course, it was not exactly half, and since he selectively chose, he was definitely the one getting the better end of the deal.
This trip was a deliberate overture from the Purple Gold Holy Land, and they gave Qin Changqing a big favor.
Naturally, Qin Changqing would not intentionally take advantage of them.
As a system host and a strong being who had already overcome three declines, even though these resources were abundant and precious, Qin Changqing would not take advantage of them.
He still had his principles and standards.
Seeing that Qin Changqing didn’t take much, Yunyan didn’t insist. Looking at him, her admiration grew stronger.
After dividing the items, Qin Changqing planted all the spiritual grasses and medicines obtained this time on the Spirit Medicine Peak in the Qin Mansion.
The rest of the items were stored in the family warehouse.
The family warehouse was divided into two parts.
One part was for the descendants, and the other for Qin Changqing’s concubines.
The warehouse in the inner court was managed by Qin Changqing’s concubines in rotation, and each person was given a sufficient quota each month.
The descendants were treated the same way.
The more outstanding the descendants, the more resources they received.
Even if these descendants could receive resources from other Immortal Gates, as long as they were outstanding, they could also receive additional rewards from the family.
In any case, the Qin family had a clear system of rewards and punishments.
Besides, there was another warehouse that only Qin Changqing could access, which contained items that needed extensive processing.
After placing all the items properly, all the gains from this trip to the small spirit realm were finally settled.
Qin Changqing checked on Tao Yao’s situation. Finding that she was still in cultivation, he chose not to disturb her.
His daughter, Qin Xue, was also still in cultivation.
Yunyan began to peacefully nurture her fetus.
“My Lord, have you been away these past few years? Xiaoxiao has not seen you” a voice came from Su Xiaoxiao’s dwelling.
In these three years, Su Xiaoxiao had not seen Qin Changqing.
Her fourth decline was approaching, so she was somewhat anxious.
Once the fourth decline arrived, she would surely be exposed in front of Qin Changqing.
