The Sacred Land Is Going Bankrupt, I Invented a Mobile Phone!
Chapter 174: My Turf, My Rules! (2)The elders of Great Mystery Sacred Land thought they were smart for exploiting a loophole, even entertaining thoughts of competing with the Heavenly Origin Sacred Land for business.
Now, it seemed laughable in retrospect.
The Great Mystery Saint Master’s face turned extremely dark.
His eyes burned with flames, and his terrifying Nascent Soul aura burst forth, causing the Great Mystery Holy Son to continuously retreat.
“What kind of joke is this?
“The trending topics we manipulated are only worth a thousand top-grade spirit stones at most.
“How dare your Heavenly Origin Sacred Land ask for one hundred thousand top-grade spirit stones?
“You have humiliated my Great Mystery Sacred Land like this, can you bear the consequences?”
The Great Mystery Saint Master was completely enraged.
Meanwhile, the voice from the Heavenly Origin Little Communicator of the Foreign Affairs Elder sneered, “Great Mystery Saint Master, if my Heavenly Origin Sacred Land says it’s one hundred thousand, then it’s one hundred thousand!“Pay it if you want, or don’t use it!
“As for the consequences? Heh, it’s nothing but war!
“On this matter, I can reply to your Sacred Land on behalf of my Sacred Land. If you want war, then bring it on!”
With that, the communication was directly terminated.
Listening to the busy tone after the call ended, the Great Mystery Saint Master’s face alternated between blue and white.
His killing intent was overflowing.
The Heavenly Origin Little Spirit Communicator of the Great Mystery Holy Son instantly exploded.
The words of the Foreign Affairs Elder were simply too arrogant.
“Arrogant, extremely arrogant!
“War, war!
“Heavenly Origin Sacred Land, how dare you insult us like this, I will definitely make you pay.”
The Great Mystery Saint Master roared with bloodshot eyes!
The hearts of the Elders were also deeply humiliated.
As sacred land elders, they had never been treated so arrogantly.
But war?
Everyone understood that the Great Mystery Saint Master was just venting his anger.
The Heavenly Origin Sacred Land now had unimaginable resources.
Engaging in war would inevitably lead to a protracted conflict, and their side would suffer greatly.
Furthermore, the other two major Sacred Lands were watching closely.
So unless absolutely necessary, war was impossible.
The main hall fell into silence.
After a long time, the Elders of the Great Mystery Sacred Land hesitantly spoke up, “Saint Master, should we… compensate the Heavenly Origin Sacred Land?”
“Compensate? What a joke!” The Great Mystery Saint Master glared at the Formation Elder, “My Great Mystery Sacred Land is high and mighty, when have we ever compensated anyone?
“If we compensate, wouldn’t that mean my Great Mystery Sacred Land is bowing down to the Heavenly Origin Sacred Land?
“I absolutely cannot accept it!”
“What if we can’t use the Heavenly Origin Little Communicator?”
The Great Mystery Saint Master couldn’t bear such humiliation.
But the Elders of the Great Mystery Sacred Land, upon hearing this, all had changed expressions.
They also felt extremely humiliated to compensate.
But if they couldn’t use the Heavenly Origin Little Communicator…
It wasn’t just a matter of inconveniencing them in contacting friends.
The most important thing was…
Their courses in the Immortal Net Cloud Classroom were ruined.
Nowadays, all the Elders of the Great Mystery Sacred Land had courses in the Immortal Net Cloud Classroom.
Each class earned them hundreds of spirit stones, and sometimes even thousands.
It made them extremely wealthy.
It’s easy to become extravagant, but hard to become frugal.
They had become accustomed to the high income from hosting online classes.
If they were forced back to relying on the annual offerings from the Sacred Land, no one would be willing!
The venerable Alchemy Elder sighed, “Saint Master, in my opinion, we were indeed at fault in this matter!
“Not only did we exploit a loophole, but we also attempted to compete with the Heavenly Origin Sacred Land for business!
“Anyone would find that intolerable. So it’s better to pay the fine and let it go!”
The Great Mystery Saint Master’s face changed at the Elder’s words.
He didn’t dare to anger the highly respected Achemy Elder.
But he couldn’t believe that all the Elders were now agreeing to bow down.
All the Elders, at this moment, had expressions of approval on their faces.
It was clear that they all, like the Alchemy Elder, were willing to compromise.
This…
The dignified Elders of the Great Mystery Sacred Land are high and mighty.
When did they start reasoning and reflecting on their mistakes?
When did my Great Mystery Sacred Land care about right and wrong?
The Great Mystery Saint Master was truly astonished.
The Elder in charge of planting sighed, “Saint Master, I know you don’t want to!
“But all of us make considerable income from the Immortal Net Cloud Classroom. Each of us may earn tens of thousands, or even hundreds of thousands, every year!
“If we are banned, the spirit stones will be earned by other powerful cultivators!
“By then, it will be a zero-sum game, and our Great Mystery Sacred Land will be at a loss.
“Compared to the loss of not being able to teach classes, the fine of one hundred thousand top-grade spirit stones is really nothing!”
All the Elders nodded.
They didn’t disregard their dignity.
It’s just…
The income from the Immortal Net Cloud Classroom was simply too much!
At this moment, the Great Mystery Saint Master fully understood.
His Elders had been completely corrupted by the spirit stones from the Heavenly Origin Sacred Land.
For the sake of a few spirit stones, they were willing to disregard the dignity of the Sacred Land.
But even as the Saint Master, he couldn’t go against the will of so many Elders.
The Great Mystery Saint Master sighed helplessly, “Since all the Elders insist on this, then let’s do as you say! Send someone to pay the fine later!”
With that, the Great Mystery Saint Master didn’t want to linger any longer and left desolately.
Having his account banned and his posts deleted were already a waste of effort.
Now, he had lost face as well.
It was extremely humiliating to compensate the Heavenly Origin Sacred Land with one hundred thousand top-grade spirit stones.
The Elders watched the desolate figure of their Saint Master and felt a bit reluctant.
They also felt humiliated.
But no one could say they shouldn’t compensate or try to confront it head-on.
The annual income of tens of thousands of top-grade spirit stones from the Immortal Net Cloud Classroom was something no one could give up.
The Immortal Net Cloud Classroom provided too much!
Compared to that, losing a bit of face really didn’t matter!
