“I want the thrill of victory! I pretended to be unable to fight back, but in the end, I want to win. You making me lose directly is really humiliating for me! I want to write the legend of invincibility, the tale of never being defeated!”
Brother Tiger protested angrily.
However, Chu Yang completely ignored Brother Tiger's resistance.
His only response was a single line: “Amethyst! Do you still want to eat or not? I don’t have much left!”
The implication was clear: if you don’t listen to me, then don’t think about eating.
It was a blatant threat, an overt coercion!
Brother Tiger was itching with frustration, but he knew the situation was stronger than the person and could only yield to someone’s intimidation...
In Purple Cloud City, the stock of Amethyst from others was far inferior to Chu Yang's. If Chu Yang was a gold mine, the Amethyst that others stored could at best be considered merely a piece of gold.
For Brother Tiger, who was eager to regain his strength, this was undoubtedly a rare benefactor!
During this time, Chu Yang was also busy recruiting troops and building his power; many people in Purple Cloud City showed interest in following the rising star of the divine doctor.
However, the conditions for Chu Divine Doctor to recruit subordinates were very strict: at least a ground-level cultivation level!
This requirement was a bit too high. Which ground-level expert wouldn't prefer freedom? If they reached that level of cultivation, why would they bother to serve as a servant?
You yourself are only a ground-level, after all...
After three days, not a single ground-level expert was recruited.
Thus, Chu Imperial Seat had to do as he did some time ago, recruiting a large number of youths, as well as some homeless beggars and young children; all gathered in another large courtyard he had bought, collectively trained...
Among these little ones, the oldest was only about fifteen or sixteen, while the youngest looked to be just two or three years old. King's Blade temporarily became the head of the children, leading these kids.
It was called training. In reality, most of these little ones were just playing.
As for when they would be useful, that was a matter of personal opinion.
Under the premise that Chu Yang was reluctant to use the Ninefold Pill and distribute spiritual medicine extensively, it was possible that they might not acquire any cultivation level or become strong for their entire lives.
Cat Teacher had truly become a teacher during these two days.
He was sent by Chu Yang to teach these little ones.
Cat Teacher was very displeased with this. But with one sentence from Chu Yang, he obediently complied: “Hey... you’re eating my food and living in my place; you won’t help me with this small task? How did I save your life back then...”
When Cat Teacher heard this for the first time, he seemed a bit guilty, a little embarrassed.
But when he heard it seventeen or eighteen times in two days, he couldn’t take it anymore...
“You’re too obvious in your gratitude; others give kindness without expecting anything in return. What about you? You give kindness but expect repayment...” Cat Teacher exploded with rage.
And Chu Yang's response was another line that made Cat Teacher's ears wear out: “Hey... so this is the attitude of a teacher from the Cat Clan towards a lifesaver; today really opened my eyes...”
At this point, Cat Teacher was utterly defeated, sniffling with tears as he begged Chu Yang: “Brother, if there’s anything you need, just say it; I’ll do it. Anyway, there’s nothing else to do. But please, don’t say those two sentences again... I’m afraid I might really lose my temper and hit you. If you’re not afraid of being hit, feel free to say...”
Chu Yang knew the limits. Naturally, he was haughty, withdrawing his forces, waiting for the fruits of victory.
As for Yan Rushan, Chu Imperial Seat certainly wouldn’t let this super expert idle around.
Though this great expert could barely stand and still couldn’t move freely, and was heavily injured, Chu Yang still drafted him.
