Moreover, Mo Wen was actually prepared to use all the wealth in the treasure trove to buy medicinal herbs! Zhou Honglu was a little speechless. Who knew how many years the Jiang Clan had been hoarding such a large amount of wealth? Moreover, it was under the circumstances of plundering the Dafang Sect. Yet, he was actually prepared to buy all of it as useless medicinal herbs. Even if the sect was in the medicinal herb business, it would not be like this.
If they could buy pills that could increase their cultivation and use them on the disciples of the sect, then the disciples of the sect would have a huge leap.
"Buy as many as you can. As long as they are precious herbs, you don't have to consider ordinary herbs."
Mo Wen nodded his head. To be able to use that useless gold to purchase rare medicinal herbs was simply worth it. If he could refine all those medicinal herbs into pills, then the value would increase by many times. It would be a profitable transaction.
Zhou Honglu's lips twitched a little, intending to dissuade Mo Wen. Although the wealth in the treasure trove had nothing to do with the three aristocratic families, they might not even get a share. But in his heart, he could not bear to see such a waste.
However, Mo Wen's expression was so determined that he swallowed the words that were on the tip of his tongue.
"Following the orders of the Sect Leader, I will order the disciples of the Sect to head to the trading market of the ancient martial arts world to purchase medicinal herbs."
Zhou Honglu laughed bitterly. Who would dare to refute such a powerful headmaster? The corpses of the Jiang Clan members were piled up like a mountain, and they had not been disposed of yet. The air was filled with the smell of blood. They were also afraid of following in the footsteps of the Jiang Clan.
He finally understood that this youth had no sense of belonging to the Dafang Sect at all. Even though he had become the Dafang Sect's Sect Leader, everything he did was done as he pleased. He did not care about the interests of the sect at all.
If it was someone from the three big aristocratic families who became the sect leader, they would definitely place the development and strengthening of the sect as their top priority. They would think about the entire Dafang Sect. However, this youth would not do so. He had casually abolished the various rules of the Dafang Sect, completely disregarding those precepts and sect rules. It was obvious that he had no regard for the ancestors of the Dafang Sect.
For a person without a sense of belonging to a sect to become the supreme leader of a sect, it would be a very terrifying thing.
"Yes, follow me well. I won't treat you badly."
Mo Wen nodded his head and patted Zhou Honglu's shoulder in satisfaction.
"We will obey the Sect Master's orders."
Zhou Honglu bowed slightly, but he smiled bitterly in his heart. 'Work hard for him …!' Why did the Dafang Sect seem to have become a bandit's lair?
"Your three great clans can take ten percent of the finished pills in the treasury, and the rest will be given as rewards to the sect disciples with meritorious contributions. If you make any outstanding contributions in the future, my treasury will always be open to you. "
Mo Wen waved his hand and said generously.
"Many thanks for the reward, Sect Leader!"
Zhou Honglu perked up when he heard that. His eyes were filled with joy, and his tone was especially energetic. The Jiang Clan had accumulated a treasure trove of elixirs for decades. Even if there were only ten percent of the elixirs in it, it was definitely not a small amount. It was probably more than the elixirs accumulated by any of the three aristocratic families.
Mo Wen had actually given them to them with a wave of his hand. With these pills, the disciples of the three aristocratic families would most likely be able to raise their abilities to another level. For the three aristocratic families, this was a benefit that they could not even beg for.
Immediately, Zhou Honglu's impression of Mo Wen changed greatly. At least this Sect Leader was very generous and did not seem to mistreat the three big clans.
Mo Wen smiled. Those crude elixirs were of no use to him, so he naturally did not mind using them to win over the hearts of the people. The emperor did not use hungry soldiers. When the people under him were full, they would naturally be able to do things quickly. With clear rewards and punishments, he would be able to properly manage the people under him.
Previously, although the people of the three aristocratic families did not stand on his side, it was not a big deal. It was just that their standpoints were different. In order for the three aristocratic families to work for him like diligent little horses, he naturally did not mind roping them in.
Although he had never been a Sect Leader before, he did not know about the art of managing people or the art of trickery. However, he knew that absolute ability and rich benefits could be like an invisible chain that bound the people under him.
In the next few days, almost all the disciples in the Dafang Sect were busy. Some were involved in the reconstruction of the main hall after the battle, while others were running around to other sects to purchase precious medicinal herbs. This was because the Sect Leader had instructed them to purchase those aged medicinal herbs regardless of the cost, especially those special medicinal herbs that could display strange phenomena. They had to be especially careful.
There was also a group of disciples who had started to go deep into the mountains to collect medicinal herbs everywhere. They had almost searched all the surrounding mountains, and some had even walked into the territory of other sects to search.
However, almost no one dared to say anything. Even if they saw it, they would just turn a blind eye and ignore it. This was because the ancient martial arts influences in the series of three big Mountain ranges all knew that the Dafang Sect had a terrifying young strong practitioner. He was known as the Revered Youth, and almost no one dared to offend him.
The Dafang Sect disciples had followed the youth's orders to go down the mountains to collect medicinal herbs. Who would dare to stop them? If there was a conflict, wouldn't it give the youth an excuse to swallow up their sect?
Although after Mo Wen had become the Dafang Sect Leader, every disciple had been busy, they didn't have any complaints. This was because after they put in the work, they would be rewarded rather well. Normally, only the core disciples were qualified to have the Practicing pills. Now, the ordinary disciples also had the opportunity to have them. Hence, everyone seemed to be on steroids and full of energy.
After annihilating the Jiang Clan, the Dafang Sect still had more than 3,000 disciples. However, most of them were ordinary disciples with low Cultivation. They made up more than half of the sect's population. These disciples were all recruited from the outside and had no direct relationship with the three big aristocratic families.
As for the people from the three big aristocratic families, they filled the management of the sect. Those who were presentable were almost all the higher-ups of the sect. This was because only the people from the three big aristocratic families could produce experts. Without additional resources, it was very difficult for the ordinary disciples to practice their Cultivation to a high realm. After all, not everyone was an ancient martial arts genius.
Among the more than 60 Qi Nucleation realm elders in the sect, more than 50 of them were from the three big aristocratic families. Among the ordinary disciples, there were only 11 of them. Moreover, under the circumstance that the Jiang Clan was eliminated, the proportion was too small.
Naturally, Mo Wen wouldn't let all the people from the three big aristocratic families occupy the important positions in the sect. To him, having too much power in the hands of the three big aristocratic families was not a good thing. Hence, he focused on nurturing the 11 ordinary elders.
Other than that, he started to nurture a large number of the ordinary disciples in the sect. He found some people with good talent and took special care of them.
Just as Zhou Honglu had said, he had to nurture a group of his own confidants. The Jiang Clan had been annihilated, the Wang Clan had no one left, and only the three aristocratic families were left.
Hence, in the next few days, he ordered the few ordinary elders to personally select a group of people with good talent from the ordinary disciples that they had recruited. They would be personally taught by the elders in the sect, and they would receive the benefits of resources.
In addition, the Dafang Sect had also started to recruit disciples. They had sent more than 10 teams to the outside world to recruit disciples with outstanding talent.
In the past, when the Jiang Clan was in charge of the Dafang Sect, they weren't very active in recruiting disciples. This was because there were five big aristocratic families in the Dafang Sect. Unlike other sects, the sect's focus had always been on nurturing the people from the five big aristocratic families. They didn't pay much attention to the disciples that they recruited from the outside. Even if they recruited disciples, they were at most just there to show off the facade of the big sects. They didn't put any effort into teaching them.
Now, Mo Wen naturally wouldn't follow the old path of the Dafang Sect. He was prepared to integrate this faction into the future Ming Cult to build a foundation for him to subdue the other factions that had split off from the Ming Cult.
However, his time couldn't be spent on nurturing the sect. Everything was handled by his subordinates. His focus was still on his own practice.
Five days later, Mo Wen posted a reward within the range of the series of three big mountain ranges. The content of the reward was to find a stalk of medicinal herb called the Three Shades of Green Flower. He was willing to exchange it with a ranked martial arts teaching. If anyone had this item, they could come to the Dafang Sect to exchange it.
Once this reward was posted, it immediately shocked the entire series of three big mountain ranges. Almost everyone knew that for a stalk of medicinal herb, the Dafang Sect was actually willing to exchange a ranked martial arts teaching of the Fine Grade level. That was an astronomical price, shocking everyone.
In the ancient martial arts world, ranked martial arts teaching was very rare. Even the four big influences in the series of three big mountain ranges might not be able to produce a few ranked martial arts teaching. Moreover, they were all regarded as the sect's most valuable treasures. Those ancient martial arts influences that weren't too big or too small basically wouldn't have ranked martial arts teaching, even if it was the lowest ranked martial arts teaching.
Moreover, for an ancient martial arts sect, martial arts teaching and techniques were all things passed down in the sect. They were secrets that couldn't be passed down. If someone outside the sect practiced the sect's martial arts teaching, once it was discovered, they would face the sect's pursuit until they killed the person and took back the sect's martial arts teaching.
Now that the Dafang Sect was actually willing to offer a ranked martial arts teaching as a reward, how could the ancient martial arts influences in the series of three big mountain ranges not be shocked? Almost all of the ancient martial arts influences were tempted. They were all looking for the Three Shades of Green Flower, hoping to exchange it with the Dafang Sect.
In particular, those ancient martial arts influences that weren't too big or too small were all very excited. Their sects didn't have ranked martial arts teaching. If they could have a ranked martial arts teaching as the sect's cornerstone martial arts teaching, the sect's ability would develop and strengthen to a large extent, far surpassing their previous opponents.
However, very few people knew what exactly the Three Shades of Green Flower was. Some ancient martial arts sects hadn't even heard of it. After a round of searching, there were actually no results.
It was no wonder that the Dafang Sect had issued a reward to find this item. Without even thinking, it was obvious that the Three Shades of Green Flower was definitely not simple.
At that moment, in the Ghost Physicians Hu Clan, far away at the border between Kuochang Mountain and Yandang Mountain, a few people of high status in the clan had gathered together. They were all of high seniority and high cultivation. Usually, they were seniors and experts who rarely showed themselves. Now, they were all sitting in a secret room. Each of them had a grave expression, as if they were discussing something. (To be continued.)
