Beside Xia Yumo, several Sendai Gakuin students couldn't help but laugh.
If it was something else, they might be able to help, but how could they do it when dealing with a group of weak villagers?
"Don't look at me, this has nothing to do with me." Meng Qi was the first to shake off his hand. He didn't want a group of villagers throwing rotten eggs and leaves at him.
"Xia Yumo, it's time to test you," Luo Qiu said solemnly. "This is the price you have to pay for being Empress Xia. You must hold on!"
"These villagers are really stubborn. Don't they feel that we're good to them?" Bai Chen couldn't understand and couldn't help but sigh.
Beside him, Xue Ji didn't know what to say. Although she was also from this world, she had been in contact with Xia Yumo and the others for a long time and gradually came into contact with the thoughts of people on Earth. Just like now, Xue Ji also felt that the villagers outside were unreasonable. Xia Yumo had brought wealth to this village and taught them the cultivation method of immortality. The villagers should be grateful, not shouting to drive Xia Yumo away.
Xia Yumo didn't say anything, but her expression was extremely ugly.
She felt that she was too kind and treated these villagers too well, causing them to lose their fear of her.
So sometimes, using kindness and coercion was the way to do things. Blindly showing kindness would make the other party feel that you were easy to bully and even take everything for granted.
After Xia Yumo came to her senses, she directly opened the door.
Outside, more than a hundred villagers were holding tools in their hands, looking very fierce.
Xia Yumo secretly felt gratified. There were only a hundred people, much less than she had imagined. It seemed that there were still many people who knew how to repay kindness. Everything she did wasn't in vain.
"Immortal, if you don't pay tribute to the Quicksand Sect, they will definitely vent their anger on us. At that time, you can leave, but where can we go? So, please leave our village. We don't want to die because of you. " A leading villager shouted. This villager was the son of the village chief and was also a candidate for the next village chief. But ever since Xia Yumo came here, not to mention the next village chief, even the current village chief only existed in name.
At this time, the others also roared in an aggressive manner.
At this time, Xia Yu Mo couldn't help but laugh. Her laugh was very cold. "It seems that you're afraid of Quicksand Sect, but not me? If the people from Quicksand Sect are Ascendant Immortals, then am I not Ascendant Immortal? If the people of Quicksand Sect can kill you, then why can't I? Quicksand Gate makes you pay tribute every year, exploiting you like this, but you still protect them like this. On the other hand, I brought you wealth and the hope of longevity, yet I have to be blamed by you. What a joke. "
Following Xia Yu Mo's words, the surroundings suddenly became cold.
The leader was so scared that his body trembled and his face turned pale. "What do you want? Don't come over!"
Xia Yu Mo's face was cold, and she really wanted to kill him. "Today, I'll tell you that you can't offend High Immortals. If it weren't for me, you would still be ordinary people for the rest of your lives, and so would your descendants. Quicksand Gate will also harvest you like harvesting leeks, until you have no more value. But I brought you the hope of longevity and wealth. Just based on this, you should be grateful to me and thank me profusely. "
At the end of her words, Xia Yu Mo waved her sleeve, and the man was sent flying dozens of meters away, his head bleeding.
The people around him were trembling.
At this time, Xia Yu Mo looked at them coldly, and all the villagers lowered their heads in shame, not daring to breathe.
Meng Qi and the others nodded repeatedly. Sure enough, when dealing with these ignorant villagers, they couldn't be too merciful. Otherwise, they would take a mile after taking an inch.
"Get out of here!"
Xia Yu Mo snorted coldly, and all the villagers fled in fright. No one dared to say anything.
Xia Yu Mo could send the village chief's son flying with a slap of her sleeve, and he fell half to death. If they dared to say anything, they would be killed immediately.
At this moment, the villagers seemed to understand that Ascendant Immortals were Ascendant Immortals after all.
The next day, everything was calm and peaceful.
Not only that, Xia Yu Mo opened a tofu workshop in the Hidden Immortal Village.
Originally, in this world, not to mention tofu, there weren't even beans. However, Xia Yu Mo found a plant that was similar to soybeans, and according to the method of making tofu, she really did make it.
"Ascendant Immortal, this tofu will definitely sell for a high price." Xue Ji said excitedly.
"Tofu and other products are just a means. What I want is to connect the surrounding hundred miles into one." Xia Yu Mo said indifferently. "The market in the west will be completed soon. When that time comes, people from the surrounding hundred villages will come to the market to buy and sell things. This will greatly increase the circulation of goods, and also quickly establish the prototype of this world's commerce. The outdated trading methods of the past will be eliminated sooner or later."
"Oh." Xue Ji seemed to understand, but not completely. This was too profound for her.
At this moment, a commotion suddenly came from outside.
"Ascendant Immortal, not good, the people from Quicksand Sect are here." A young man hurriedly ran over. "The village chief has brought a dozen villagers to welcome them. They will definitely slander you."
"They really came at the right time." Xia Yu Mo said indifferently. She immediately sent someone to inform Bai Chen and Luo Qiu to gather at the village entrance.
At the village entrance.
Four men in their twenties carried swords on their backs, bossing people around.
The village chief trembled and said with a sobbing tone, "The village chief of Hidden Immortal Village greets Ascendant Immortal. Ascendant Immortal, you must uphold justice for us!"
The other villagers also kowtowed, begging the people from Quicksand Sect to uphold justice.
The leader of the group asked curiously, "Your Hidden Immortal Village is under the protection of our Quicksand Sect. Who dares to cause trouble here?"
The village chief's son said emotionally, "Ascendant Immortal, you may not know, but a female Ascendant Immortal came from nowhere. Not only is she spreading witchcraft in the village, she also won't let us pay tribute to you. Yesterday, I went to reason with her about this and was actually beaten up by her. I still have a few bruises on my body. "
The four men looked at each other, all of them furious.
One of the men said directly, "How impudent. She dares to cause trouble in our Quicksand Sect's territory. She must be tired of living."
The man next to him laughed, "I don't know where this ignorant rogue cultivator came from. I've seen many people like her. She's an idiot who doesn't know the immensity of heaven and earth."
The other two men couldn't help but laugh. They looked down on rogue cultivators from the bottom of their hearts.
Hearing that the Ascendant Immortal of Quicksand Sect had come, the other villagers also hurried out. Gradually, there were close to a thousand people around them.
