God rewards hard work: Farming and cultivating immortality
Chapter 411: Disaster for the Duan family, Xiaoyao Sect changes its leader
Since its establishment, White Jade Immortal City has had many underlying rules.
One of them is that during wartime, everyone who is still in the city must cooperate with the recruitment of the city lord's palace and coordinate the defense.
Of course, the city lord's palace will also provide a lot of supplies in exchange for military achievements.
Almost everyone knows about this and basically acquiesces to this rule, including those families who have a foothold in the city.
If anyone cares, they will not come to this White Jade Fairy City to develop...
But after all, there are real people in White Jade Immortal City, and there are third-level spiritual veins. It has gathered a large number of monks and has developed commerce. It is extremely attractive to those casual cultivators who have no power and are alone.
Moreover, within the hundreds of years since White Jade Immortal City was established, wars had been rare, and they had occurred less than five times.
In this way, this unspoken rule can be exercised.
Duan Ren naturally knew the reason, but as a well-known foundation-building family, they also had advantages that casual cultivators did not have.
That's intelligence!
In the past, whenever there was a war, the Duan family would receive information, and they could urgently arrange for personnel to withdraw from the fairy city, preserve the family's power and supplies, and wait for the end of the war to revive the family.
This is what Master Bai Yu acquiesces to. After all, after the war, both the exchange of materials and reconstruction require the efforts of these families, so naturally some preferential treatment must be given to them.
Of course, not all the families will withdraw, but will stay with more than half of the clansmen to coordinate the defense. Some of them will also express their stance and serve as hostages.
If the whole family withdraws, it will mean a complete break with White Jade Immortal City, and they will be liquidated after the war.
This is the tacit understanding between many immortal cultivating families and White Jade Immortal City, and it is also one of the reasons why it still stands today.
However, this time, the Duan family did not receive any news.
This also means that most of the Duan family's wealth and personnel are in the city.
According to wartime rules, these materials and personnel can be mobilized by the city lord's palace!
If it were in the past, it wouldn't matter if he sincerely cooperated with the defense and gave money to others, Master Bai Yu would also take this into account and arrange a logistics position for the Duan family.
It can ensure the safety of Duan family members to the greatest extent.
At least nothing will happen to the Duan family until they are defeated and the city is destroyed.
But in the current situation, it is obvious that someone wants to take action against the Duan family, and in addition, Baiyu Immortal City is not the one who makes the decision now.
Whether past rules apply is also questionable.
This can be seen from concealing battle reports, secretly sealing off the city, and framing the casual cultivators.
Whenever such a situation occurs, it will be reported to the whole city and the monks will be given the freedom to choose whether to leave.
Those who are weaker and not good at fighting will leave Fairy City and come back when the situation is stable.
And those who are confident in their own strength will stay and make a fortune from the war!
Needless to say, there are many such casual cultivators. In the past few hundred years in the East China Sea, many of the famous foundation-building casual cultivators have achieved foundation-building by helping Immortal City kill enemies and receiving foundation-building pills in exchange for military exploits!
In this regard, the reputation of White Jade Fairy City was very good in the past.
Some casual cultivators heard that White Jade Immortal City was in trouble, and many of them came here to support them.
But once this incident is over, the reputation of White Jade Fairy City will probably not be the same as it was before. It is not possible to cry out loudly, but it is very possible to curse a few times in secret.
Duan Ren can't figure it out why White Jade Immortal City wants to kill the goose that lays the goose to retrieve the egg?
Obviously, according to the combat power of White Jade Immortal City at this time, with the five immortals and the third-level formation, it would be very difficult even if the True Monarch Nascent Soul came and wanted to break through.
And since the demonic invasion and occupation of the Jiuyang Sect's territory, it has never expanded outwards for decades. It is probably for the purpose of cultivating one's health and digesting the results of the war.
According to their estimates, it would not be a problem for White Jade Immortal City to remain standing for hundreds of years.
Duan Ren couldn't figure it out himself, so he told Du Xi about his doubts. With one more person and one more perspective, he might be able to analyze something from it.
"I'm afraid that the real people have already planned to give up on this White Jade Fairy City. Before leaving, they plan to make a big fortune at the end..."
Du Xi lamented, somewhat feebly.
"Huh? How come?!"
"This place is already the last third-level spiritual vein in the East China Sea. The rest are under the control of the devil. If they abandon this place, where will they go?!"
"Wait, could it be..."
Duan Ren seemed to have thought of something, stood up and looked at the East China Sea...
"In that sea area, let alone the islands with third-level spiritual veins, we have even heard of two fourth-level spiritual islands!"
Du Xi took over the conversation and continued to explain.
"If there weren't a large number of dangerous monsters in the sea, and beast tides would break out from time to time, those spiritual islands in the sea would indeed be an extremely suitable place to establish a sect."
After all, their Xiaoyao Sect is located on an offshore island.
If that place wasn't hidden and there were monsters blocking the way, the humans might have discovered and occupied it long ago.
At the beginning of the establishment of the sect, they spent a lot of effort, united with the Duan family, used their huge financial resources to issue tasks, and gathered manpower to eradicate the demon clan and open up the sea route.
Otherwise, the Xiaoyao Sect will be trapped in a corner, and there will be no development.
"That makes sense..."
Although this matter is still Du Xi's guess, in Duan Ren's opinion, it is almost certain.
After thinking about the matter, he bowed deeply to Du Xi who came to report the news, "Thank you very much, Master Du, for informing me of the details. Before the wartime notice is issued, Master Du should go back and take charge of the sect as soon as possible. I will also go and give instructions." "
Duan Ren stood up anxiously and said this to Du Xi. At this time, his mind was already occupied by this news and the hopeless future of the Duan family, and he had no intention of thinking about other matters.

For example, why did Du Xi come in person? He could just send a confidant...
Seeing Duan Ren like this, Du Xi replied with a helpless smile, "I'm afraid I can't go back..."
Duan Ren was stunned and hurriedly asked, "What do you mean?"
Du Xi spoke bitterly...
It turned out that just 500 miles away from the small island where the Xiaoyao Sect was located, there was a group of third-level spiritual islands!
There were three third-level spiritual islands, forming a triangle, supporting each other.
Although there were powerful third-level monster kings living on them, with the combat power of five Jindan real people in Baiyu Xiancheng, there was still a high probability of taking them down!
The terrain of the archipelago was excellent, and there was a shallow offshore beach behind it. The monsters would not be very strong, so there was no need to worry.
Further back is the outer continent of the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range, where the monsters basically never enter the sea, let alone worth mentioning.
If you occupy that spiritual island, you only need to face the powerful sea monsters coming from the inland sea, and the defense pressure will be much easier than that of an isolated island hanging overseas.
If it really doesn't work, you can retreat to the mainland and make plans...
And the reason why the spiritual islands were discovered by the real people of Baiyu Xiancheng is also thanks to the sea route opened by Xiaoyao Sect for development!
In the past, people focused their attention on the mainland and rarely explored the sea area. They only knew the ancestral teachings of their ancestors that there were many monsters in the sea and it was not easy to survive...
Now, Baiyu Xiancheng has a third-level spiritual vein that is completely insufficient to satisfy the five Jindan real people's practice and development of power.
In addition, there are demons outside, so they naturally want to seek changes. The emergence of Xiaoyao Sect also makes them focus on that sea area.
With the help of the sea route opened by Xiaoyao Sect, they sent people to expand outward and finally found that archipelago.
But if they want to attack and occupy that archipelago, they need a lot of manpower and material resources, and before they occupy it, they can't give up the only third-level spiritual vein in Baiyu Xiancheng.
They always have to leave a way out for themselves, in case of failure?
After thinking about it, they need a barracks for them to carry out the military campaign.
Naturally, the closest and most convenient Xiaoyao Sect Spirit Island was chosen...
