Long Term Investment
"What's the matter, kid?"
Just as Ye Xuan was caught in a dilemma, the green-bearded old man Du Wenxuan had recovered from his shock. He walked from the cage that had lost its pillars to Ye Xuan and patted him on the shoulder. "I don't care how you did it, but I wasn't wrong about you! Tell me what's troubling you! "
"Alright, don't pretend you didn't get what you wanted. Now that you can leave, you should leave …"
Ye Xuan chuckled wryly and said nothing more. He only urged Old Man Lu to leave. "But you better keep this a secret for me when you get out, old man. It's not appropriate for news of this situation to spread."
"So that's what you're worried about!"
Although Ye Xuan had only mentioned it casually, Old Man Lu was a shrewd man. He immediately understood and laughed heartily. "I say, what are you worried about, kid? You've got the entire Black Mosquito Bastion in your hands, what's there to worry about? Who would've thought it was because of something so trivial … "
Ye Xuan's eyes lit up. "What do you mean?"
"These ten thousand Federation elites are indeed a problem. Too many people, too many mouths. Once they're released, they'll be a huge threat to your secret of the Black Mosquito Bastion."
Old Man Lu nodded slightly. As he spoke, he had already raised his hand and pointed to the surroundings. Then, he continued, "However, these are more than ten thousand elites of the Federation after all. To be able to be captured and imprisoned here by the demons with great effort, all of them must have extremely outstanding achievements or advantages in a certain field, or perhaps they are people with extraordinary backgrounds."
"For the Wan Luo Federation, this is definitely a huge talent resource!"
"It's one thing for the demonkin to be in charge of the Black Mosquito Bastion, but now that it's in your hands, are you really going to harden your heart and ignore the Federation's influence?"
"Of course, it would be an exaggeration to say that these ten thousand people can affect the general situation of the Federation. They can't even affect the general situation of an Empire. But have you heard of this saying? It's called the butterfly effect! "
"And who can say that after they are released, one day in the future, one of them won't play a crucial role in the war between the Myriad Net Federation and the Heaven's Legacy Race?"
"Therefore, you must release the experts of the Federation!"
"However, this doesn't mean that you have to risk exposing your secret and sacrifice yourself for a righteous cause. That would be too fake, and this old man can't say it."
"If you want them to keep a secret, it's actually very simple. Just make them swear a Dao Oath one by one and hand over a Dao Oath Brand to you. If anyone wants to reveal this secret in any way, including being forced to confess or having their soul searched …"
"Then, you'll be able to sense the Taoist Oath Brand they handed over immediately. Because this oath is related to the Great Dao of the Universe, you'll be able to sense it instantly, no matter if you're in the Third Universe or the First Universe. At that time, you'll only need a thought to destroy that person's soul and primordial spirit under the backlash of the Taoist Oath!"
"In addition, there's another advantage to this method, and that's that you can use it against them!"
"Even if they don't break the Taoist Oath Brand in their entire life, as long as the Taoist Oath Brand is not taken back, their Dao heart will never be able to reach perfection. It doesn't matter if their cultivation is weak now, but in the future, once their cultivation rises, this flaw will become extremely important. It may even affect how high their final accomplishments on the path of cultivation will be."
"In other words, as long as you have these ten thousand Taoist Oath Brands in your hands, then in the future, if a few of these people become peak existences of the Federation, such as the Lord of the Capital or the Imperial Advisor of the Capital, you'll have struck gold."
"Once they reach that level, they'll definitely do everything they can to redeem the Taoist Oath Brand that belongs to them from you. Moreover, they'll have no choice but to use the Taoist Oath Brand honestly. They won't be able to use any other schemes, because you can decide their life and death with a single thought."
"Once they reach that level, these guys will clearly be even more afraid of death and won't take the risk …"
Before Old Man Lu could finish speaking, Ye Xuan's eyes lit up, and they grew brighter and brighter!
Not only would he be able to obtain tens of millions of Federation Contribution Points, but he would also be able to obtain a large amount of cultivation resources and various treasures. More importantly, this was equivalent to a long-term investment, and the investment would all be in excellent stocks with potential. When he really did reap some benefits in the future, even if only one percent or even one thousandth of these ten thousand potential stocks would take the initiative to repay him, the benefits would be unstoppable.
After all, those who would take the initiative to repay him were definitely existences that had already reached a certain level. Even if Ye Xuan's level might already be higher than theirs by then, who would complain about taking the initiative to repay such a good thing?
Not only would he obtain immediate benefits, but he would also be able to make a long-term investment. There was no better thing in the world than this.
The moment he thought of this, Ye Xuan became excited. He immediately spread his voice throughout the entire Myriad Catchment Prison, "You all heard what Old Man Lu said just now. It's not that I don't want to let you go, but there are too many people and too many mouths. This matter is too big of a threat to me, so I must make an oath.
"Moreover, because this plan was something that Old Man Lu helped me come up with, in order to prevent all of you from harboring any grudges, when you make the oath and hand over a strand of the Dao Oath Brand, you must add a sentence: Never scheme against Old Man Lu in any way because of this matter."
"My request is that simple. If you can accept it, you can make the oath now. After you hand over the oath brand and I verify that it's correct, the pillars around you will immediately disappear.
"Of course, if you feel that the conditions are too harsh and you can't accept it, I won't force you. You can continue to stay in this Myriad Catchment Prison. I, Ye Xuan, also guarantee that things like lynching will never happen again, but that's all!
"Of course, in addition to the oath, you must more or less leave some money to buy your lives. After all, I spent a lot of effort and almost died many times before I finally took down the entire Black Mosquito.
"Under such circumstances, there's no reason for you to sit back and enjoy all the benefits while I bear all the risks!
"Making an oath is only a guarantee for this Ye's inherent interests, but it doesn't reflect that you've shared the slightest bit of the risks this Ye had to bear … Therefore, this Ye's suggestion is to take out seventy percent of all the cultivation resources and various treasures on you!"
"I risked my life to do this, but you only took out seventy percent of the resources and treasures after it was done. You've profited greatly from this deal …"
