Chapter 437: 10 Billion a Month (1)
 

According to the information the Medicine God Sect had gathered about Zhu Wuan, Zhu Wuan was only in her nineties this year. Although she was a little older than her, she had only joined the Thousand Poison Sect’s Nine Dragon Mountain through the Nine Dragon Token in the past two years.

Before this, he was a cultivator from a sect in a remote place. When he joined the Thousand Poisons Sect, he did not have any resentment on him. Instead, he had a lot of virtue qi. It was obvious that he was a decent person.

Without the Nine Dragons Token, he might have joined the Sacred Flame Sect or the Medicine God Sect.

Even though he had joined the number one sect of the demonic path, Zhu Wuwan had never done anything outrageous. In the Dragon Flame Grotto, he was willing to help others, helping many alchemy apprentices break through and become a well-known teacher of his generation.

Not only did Zhu Wuyang fail to harm the Medicine God Sect, but she was almost killed by the traitor instigated by the sect. Speaking of which, Zhu Wuyang should hate the Medicine God Sect more.

After becoming the Successor Crown Prince, he had killed many people in the Endless Snake Marsh. However, even if the Medicine God Sect encountered cultivators who robbed their own resources, they would still be ruthless. Even Shu Fanruo had killed many cultivators who coveted the Fragrance Falling Plains.

Shu Fanruo could completely accept Zhu Wuyang’s actions of killing people in the Endless Snake Marsh.

As for what Zhu Wuyang had done to her and the Falling Fragrance Plains, it was just revenge. She was clearly the one who had made the first move.

Thinking about it carefully, Shu Fanruo suddenly realized that her hatred for Zhu Wuyang was really unreasonable.

Now, seeing how Zhu Wuan was willing to sacrifice so much for her and her child, power, status, resources, future…Shu Fanruo didn’t want it at all. Coupled with her deep guilt, the emotions in her heart suddenly exploded. She suddenly rushed into the arms of the somewhat dazed Zhu Wuwan and hugged him tightly.”I’m sorry for this period of time. I’ll keep the child. As for how to hide it from the higher-ups of the sect, I’ve already thought of a solution.”

“As for you, continue to be the Nine Dragons Prince. If … If you can become the sect master of the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect one day, you might be able to bring us back.”

“Take care of yourself. We’ll meet again if fate permits!”

Without waiting for Zhu Wuyang’s response, Shu Fanruo broke free from Zhu Wuyang’s embrace and disappeared into a stream of light. Zhu Wuyang quickly chased after her, wanting to know what Shu Fanruo was going to do and whether he could help.

He chased her all the way to the outside of the Fragrance Falling Plains, but was discovered by the ancient giants guarding Shu Fanruo, and had no choice but to return in a hurry.

That night, Zhu Wuan was a little restless. He immediately sent someone to inquire about the news. He wanted to sneak into the Fragrance Falling Plains again, but he was stopped by the Nine Dragon Mountain’s ancient tycoon who was secretly protecting him. He did not want to act rashly because the ancient tycoon beside Shu Fanruo was watching him outside the Fragrance Falling Plains.

Although he wouldn’t kill him, it was still possible for him to find an opportunity to teach him a lesson. With Zhu Wuyang’s current strength, he couldn’t resist at all.

It was not easy to wait until dawn, but she was shocked to find out from the hidden traitor in the Fragrance Falling Plains that Shu Fanruo had blocked all the location and tracking of the Drug God Sect last night and disappeared into the depths of the Endless Snake Marsh. No one knew where she went.

At the same time, Shu Fanruo left a letter saying that she would temporarily leave the Fragrance Falling Plains for a period of time to search for a more powerful poison. She would definitely suppress Wuwan Peak and Zhu Wuwan and would return within a year, so that no one would have to worry.

Zhu Wuyang was stunned. She immediately sent a message to Shu Fanruo, but she realized that she could not find the target. Shu Fanruo’s aura, spiritual sense, and Nascent Soul…They were all blocked by special secret techniques, so even he could not find them for the time being.

After a long silence, Zhu Wuyang sent out a large number of people to track Shu Fanruo and find an opportunity to attack her, searching for Shu Fanruo’s whereabouts in the Endless Snake Marsh.

However, Zhu Wuyan had specially instructed that she must be captured alive after she was found and that her life must not be harmed. Zhu Wuyan wanted to personally teach her a lesson and take revenge for the cultivators of Wuyan Peak who had been hurt by her during this period of time.

Zhu Wuyan also wanted to find Shu Fanruo.

There was no need to talk about the Fragrance Falling Plains. Although Shu Fanruo had already left a letter, how could they be at ease? Almost all of their men were sent out to search for Shu Fanruo’s whereabouts.

The confrontation between Zhu Wuwan and Shu Fanruo came to a temporary end just like that. However, this outcome was something that Zhu Wuwan could never have imagined and was somewhat unacceptable.

However, without Shu Fanruo’s occasional disturbance, Wuyang City’s development in the Endless Snake Marsh was even faster. It was just that Zhu Wuyang’s rate of earning breakthrough stones was much slower.

The cultivators in Wuwan City could vaguely sense that Zhu Wuwan had become much quieter compared to three months ago. She had spent more time managing her forces and improving her strength.

The power of Wuyang Peak was rising day by day, but there was still no news from Shu Fanruo.

In the fourth month of operating the Endless Snake Marsh, the ticket revenue reached 5 billion low-grade spirit stones, the tax exceeded 8 billion low-grade spirit stones, and the business income also exceeded 1 billion low-grade spirit stones, creating a new peak.

In the fifth month of operating the Endless Snake Marsh, the ticket revenue reached 6 billion low-grade spirit stones, the tax directly exceeded 10 billion low-grade spirit stones, and the income from the industry directly doubled, reaching 2 billion low-grade spirit stones.

..

When the news reached the Thousand Poisons Sect, the entire Thousand Poisons Sect was once again in an uproar. Even though they had already thought that Zhu Wuyang would definitely be able to complete the Crown Prince trial this year and raise the annual tax to 10 billion low-grade spirit stones, no one had expected Zhu Wuyang to actually be able to raise the monthly tax to 10 billion low-grade spirit stones.

If this was the case every month, wouldn’t it mean that Zhu Wuyan would be able to earn more than 100 billion in taxes in the following year, ten times more than the Crown Prince trial?

At the thought of this number, countless higher-ups of the Ten Thousand Poison Sect sucked in a breath of cold air. They were once again shocked by Zhu Wuyang’s ability and methods. At the same time, the various mountain ranges of the Ten Thousand Poison Sect urgently had supplementary lessons to learn about the New Deal. They were also considering how to implement the New Deal in the resource lands under their jurisdiction.

However, these people didn’t know that the reason why Zhu Wuyang was able to collect so much tax this month was because the Endless Snake Marsh had just been developed.

Many resources and treasures had been accumulated in the Endless Snake Marsh for a long time. Cultivators who entered it could basically obtain a considerable harvest. In addition, in the past four to five months, the benefits and advantages of the Endless Snake Marsh had spread throughout the Thousand Poisons Sect and the Southern Wilderness.

At this moment, the cultivators who entered the Endless Snake Marsh to search for treasures could be said to have reached a peak. It was precisely because of this that Zhu Wuyang had been able to reap so much profit in the past few months.

However, as time passed, a large number of treasures in the Endless Snake Marsh were plundered. It would take a long time for them to grow and replenish. The number of cultivators who came to the Endless Snake Marsh to search for treasures would definitely decrease day by day, and the ticket revenue and taxes would plummet.

At that time, it would be good enough to maintain a tax revenue of one to two billion yuan per month. Zhu Wuyang might even cancel the tickets.

Therefore, the high income of the Endless Snake Marsh could only be maintained for one or two years, and then it would fall rapidly.

Zhu Wuan was already mentally prepared. However, just the income from these two years alone should be able to catch up with the total income of many legacy crown princes for more than a hundred years.

With the help of a large amount of money, Zhu Wuyang had also earned a lot of breakthrough stones. In particular, he had obtained a shocking number of heavenly and earthly treasures, spirit pills, waste pills, and so on. Most of these had yet to be consumed by Zhu Wuyang to become breakthrough stones.

However, even if it was only a small portion, it was enough for Zhu Wuyang’s strength to increase by a large margin.

Zhu Wuan did not continue to hide these breakthrough stones in his body or keep them. He basically used them to increase his strength.

After all, with his current strength, even the ancient giant who was secretly protecting him could not detect his true strength. Zhu Wuwan had also specially tested him.

Other than this person, there was no one else in the Endless Snake Marsh that he was afraid of. How could Zhu Wuyang continue to hide?

Therefore, compared to before, Zhu Wuwan’s Qi Refinement cultivation and Body Refinement cultivation had improved a lot.
