Yin Huixuan nodded and said, “You have to make a trip there, so you go ahead first.”

With that, he couldn’t help but remind, “If you really find out something, don’t make a fuss. The imperial court is now powerful, and I cannot resist them. Even if they are indeed the ones who did it, as long as they don’t go too far next time, we will let it be.

The Iron Sword Sect, they’re just unlucky to have run into the guns of the imperial court.

I just hope that after letting off steam this time, the imperial court will calm down. Otherwise, my Liuyang Sect will have to fight to the death.”

At this point, Yin Huixuan had some regrets in his heart.

Had he accepted the imperial court’s invitation earlier, would he still be in such a predicament today?

Thinking like this, he sighed deeply in the end.

There’s no such thing as a regret medicine in the world, so now he can only take one step at a time.

The great expert at the second stage of the Inborn realm felt an unprecedented sense of powerlessness at this moment.

“Then, Disciple will go and prepare first.”

The disciple bowed and hurried away.

While Feng Bo and Yin Huixuan were worrying, Lu Yuan didn’t know that the Liuyang Sect, which had originally troubled him, had already admitted defeat.

Not only did they not dare to come looking for trouble, but they also took on a turtle-like, ostrich mentality.

The trouble that had been anticipated disappeared just like that.

If he knew about it, Lu Yuan would definitely be very happy.

However, even if he doesn’t know now, he is still very happy at this moment.

“Master, according to the statistics, we have taken the affiliated strongholds of the Iron Sword Sect, confiscated those industries, and obtained a total of more than 13 million current silver. In addition, there are countless treasures, calligraphy, and paintings.

Under coercion, the elders of the Iron Sword Sect also provided quite a bit of their hidden assets. After confiscating them, we also obtained more than 15 million silver taels. There are also a large number of treasures, calligraphy, paintings, and antiques.

The treasure trove of the Iron Sword Sect has also been found, and we have obtained more than 22 million taels’ worth of gold, silver, pearls, and treasures. In addition, we have collected over a thousand various martial arts manuals from the Iron Sword Sect.

However, the Divine Blood Elixir ordered by Master, had been used by Ding Xihua and others to restore their strength after the internal strife in the Iron Sword Sect in the past few years.

We have only obtained fifty-two pellets after reopening it.”

On the way back to Dongting County, Zhang You, who was in charge of coordinating the gains, presented the completed list to Lu Yuan.

Lu Yuan took the list and examined it carefully. After listening to his disciple’s report, he couldn’t help but nod in satisfaction and show a smile, “Not bad, not bad. Including the previous gains from wiping out the Iron Sword Sect’s main altar, we have now obtained a total of 6.7 million silver taels from the destruction of the Iron Sword Sect.

There are also various antiques, calligraphy, paintings, pearls, and treasures. These could be sold for another two or three million silver taels after being liquidated.

Adding it all up, the total gain this time is nearly ten million silver taels.

With this money, combined with the current treasury, it is enough to support an army of 100,000 soldiers for four or five years.”

Lu Yuan originally had more than 20 million silver taels stored in his treasury. Later, the Dan Ding Path funded another ten million silver taels.

After forcing the Five Poison Sect to submit, Lan Zhaoyun proactively contributed the remaining assets of Dongting County that he had collected over the years, totaling over five million taels.

Now, with the nearly ten-million-tael income from the destruction of the Iron Sword Sect, Lu Yuan has almost 27 million silver taels in his account.

According to a soldier’s salary of five taels per month and 60 taels per year, his 100,000 soldiers would require six million taels per year.

With 27 million taels, it would be enough to support a large army of 100,000 for four and a half years. Even if the army continued to expand later on, these funds would still be sufficient for another two or three years.

With such abundant resources, even if the future relationship with the imperial court sours and they cut off his grain and money, Lu Yuan will have enough confidence to wage a protracted war against the imperial court.

Having money in his hands and not feeling anxious at heart, Lu Yuan’s mood was naturally good at this moment.

Even the fifty-two Divine Blood Elixir pellets obtained from the treasure trove of the Iron Sword Sect seemed insignificant in comparison.

After all, including the Five Poisons Sect, he now had an Inborn Grandmaster, seven first-class masters and so the top-level combat power was not lacking.

As for the second-rate masters, there were over a hundred of them, including his own disciples, members of the Five Poison Sect, and those from the local prefectures and counties, such as the catch officers, inspectors, and the chief catch officer.

There were nearly five or six hundred capable third-rate masters as well.

With so many second and third-rate masters and skilled fighters, it was enough to fill the gap in his mid-level fighting power.

Add to that the 100,000 ordinary soldiers.

Thus, Lu Yuan had already perfected the three-tiered structure of his forces, with no obvious weaknesses.

Under these circumstances, the effect that the fifty-two Divine Blood Elixirs could bring was not as significant as before.

Of course, it is not to say that these Divine Acupuncture Elixirs are useless.

On the contrary, they are still very useful.

After all, if used properly, Lu Yuan could have six or seven more first-class masters.

However, it was a pity.

Although he tried to take as many apprentices as possible over the years, time was still too short.

In just a few years, the training could not catch up.

Many of the disciples’ mental states were not enough to support the strength of a first-rate, or even a second-rate master.

In this case, no matter how many Divine Blood Elixirs he had, he couldn’t make full use of them, because he couldn’t even find people to train.

However, if he didn’t look for his own disciples and sought others instead, Lu Yuan could not trust them.
