Chapter 138: The Red Mansion

Chapter 138 – The Red Mansion
“Alright, you guys go down and do your work.”

When the Sovereigns present heard this, they all obediently arched their hands and bowed.

There was excitement in the bottom of their eyes, clearly not expecting Zhou Xuan to integrate all the clans in the Hengshan Domain, with the five major clans merging together into the Holy Land.

This was a huge piece of news for the Hengshan Domain, and at the same time, it was also a surprise for them.

Especially the two from the Divine Sound Sect, Wei Zhongtian and Wei Hongning, the couple had originally been about to despair and were ready to give up their heads, just to keep the Divine Sound Sect.

However, they did not expect that the darkness of the willows and flowers, the great sadness has not yet passed, the great joy came with it, if the mortals were so emotionally volatile, it is estimated that they would have to faint, but the two are cultivators, naturally, there is no obstacle.

Several patriarchs, with a respectful face, said goodbye, and then prepared to return to the Hengshan domain to do business.

“Patriarch Shi you stay for a moment.”

Just as Shi Jioyang was about to go out with everyone else, Zhou Xuan’s voice rang out, causing the eyes of the other Patriarchs to show realization.

Sure enough, Lord Saint Son would surely favor the Ten Thousand Swords Sect.

However, this was something that was taken for granted, and this was something that they did not have any jealous thoughts about.

After all, Lord Saint Son’s previous identity was a True Scholar of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, and the fact that the other party was able to come over to participate in the Great Election of the Passage to Heaven definitely had the Ten Thousand Swords Sect’s credit, which could not be erased.

After the others went out, Shi Jiunyang, who originally had a more complicated mind, calmed down at this moment.

Just now, he did have a bit of a complicated mind, after all, Zhou Xuan was previously a True Successor of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, and as a result, the other four sects were actually treated the same as the Ten Thousand Swords Sect, which made his heart a bit unbalanced.

But now, it seemed that it was he who was mistaken.

When he figured it out, Shi Jioyang gradually calmed down despite the excitement in his heart.

He laughed bitterly inwardly, although he was the head of a clan, his state of mind was still not cultivated.

If Zhou Xuan were to know, he would definitely smile and would not blame.

This was just human nature.

Especially since his status had changed so quickly, Shi Jirayang’s psyche probably couldn’t even keep up with the change in his status.

“Patriarch Shi, more words, I won’t say any more, when the Ten Thousand Swords Sect is merged into the Holy Land, you will serve as my chief administrator then.”

“Yes… yes!”

After spending a year in the Holy Land, Shi Jioyang had a very deep understanding of the positions of a giant building in the Holy Land.

At this moment, when he learned of Zhou Xuan’s appointment of him, he could not help but feel like a dream, even if he was at the Yuan Spirit Realm, he could not help but tremble and answer at this moment.

Among the giant building in the Holy Land, there were four positions that everyone tended to seek out.

The first one was the Chief Steward, generally three were established, all of them were in the heart of the building owner’s inner circle.

Second, the big steward, generally set up twelve, to help the owner of the building to lead the pavilion, in addition, there are downstairs city, also in their jurisdiction.

Third, the stewards, the number of stewards ruled by the big steward, depending on the number of things in charge of each big steward, to determine the number of stewards.

Fourth, is the deacon, this position in the first floor is the most, these deacons are middle management, they have the most things, but the power is not small.

There are various other positions, so I won’t go into detail one by one.

And among the first floor, the disciples in the pavilion can see is the deacon and steward.

Unless there is something important, otherwise the great steward and the chief steward are the dragon to see the tail and not see the head.

Of course, if something major went wrong, they would be the ones to take the blame. Even if the main responsibility didn’t lie with them, they still had to take the main responsibility.

Shi Jioyang knew that the fact that he could directly serve as the Chief Steward was Zhou Xuan’s reward for him.

Thinking of this, Shi Jioyang excitedly saluted, “Thank you, Lord Saint Son, for your regard.”

As for the other two Chief Stewards, they must have been recruited from the other four sects or directly from the Holy Land, and it was impossible to let all of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect’s people serve as Chief Stewards.

Zhou Xuan nodded, “The next step is the Martial Election, I still have confidence in the Martial Election, you help me find someone to make some reagent tubes.”

Reagent tubes?
Shi Jioyang was just about to inquire, when Zhou Xuan told the other party what reagent tubes looked like.

After learning about it, Shi Jioyang did not ask Zhou Xuan why he wanted these, as a beloved, the owner commanded, he just had to do it.

Zhou Xuan did not keep Shi Jioyang.

He left the other party face to face, in fact, the main purpose was to tell the other four clans that the Ten Thousand Swords Sect was special in his heart, but also to let Shi Jiuyang know that he had not forgotten the favor of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect.

And the position of Chief Steward was his trust and return to the Ten Thousand Swords Sect.

As for commanding the other party to build a reagent pipe, it was just a matter of doing it in passing.

And after doing all of this, Zhou Xuan exhaled, he planned to take a good rest and participate in the Martial Election a day later.

As for how to rest?

Great Dao Mirror, activate!

A year has passed, and I don’t know how the Red Mansion has developed.

And as soon as he entered the Great Dao Mirror, he realized that only those lords of power had left him messages, all of which were pleasantries.

He knew what these lords of power meant, apart from wanting to recruit him, it was also because he could take a perfect and flawless evaluation of the Foundation Establishment Realm, so what about Dragon Transformation? Wasn’t it also possible?
Even if there was only a sliver of a chance, these Lords of Power wouldn’t let it go.

Of course with his popularity in the Great Dao Mirror, even if a year had passed, he wouldn’t slip much. After all, cultivators had a different concept of time than mortals.

But the messages from ordinary cultivators were all directly blocked by him.

Other than that, it was Myriad Jade Divine Monarch and Shangguan Ling’er who left him messages.

Both of them were talking about the Red Mansion.

A year was naturally short for this group of Divine Martial Realm cultivators, but short didn’t mean that things were slow.

There were many messages from Shangguan Ling’er, and Zhou Xuan glanced at them.

“Lord Zhou, I’ve already recruited hundreds of female officials of the Mortal Martial Ten Realm from the Six Shang Great Realms to join the Red Mansion, when will you come over to take a look at the situation and screen them?”

“Lord Zhou, Divine Monarch Myriad Jade said that she is also joining the Red Mansion, is this matter true?”

“Lord Zhou, since you are away, Divine Monarch Myriad Jade is in charge of the Red Mansion, and I didn’t dare to disobey her orders, and brought thousands more female officials from the Six Shang Great Realms to join the Red Mansion.”

“Lord Zhou, come back and take charge of Divine Monarch Myriad Jade, she asked me to bring people from the Six Shang Great Realms again. Although His Majesty promised you, I’m afraid of being scolded for recruiting too many outstanding female officials.”

“Lord Zhou, where are you?”

“I brought back tens of thousands more female officials.”

“Come back quickly, Lord Zhou, Red House can’t do without you!”

“According to His Majesty’s orders, I’ve brought many more female officials into the Red Chamber.”

What did Goddess Miao Yu do? Why does it always feel like Shangguan Ling’er is about to cry.

Moreover, why do you need so many female officials?

Zhou Xuan was dumbfounded, he had initially thought that the Red Mansion would recruit those high-end female cultivators and just let them have a quiet environment to communicate.

People don’t need to be many, but they all need to be elite, plus he practiced a membership system, and it was still the old with the new model, he estimated that the number of people in the early stages would not be too many.

After all, if you want to become a member of the Red House, you have to pay a sum of money.

What had this Myriad Jade Divine Lord done?
Zhou Xuan then looked at Myriad Jade Divine Lord’s message.

“Where is everyone? Still not back after so long? It’s only a bit of spiritual light, so if it’s dead, it’s not in the way.”

“It won’t leave a psychological shadow, right? Come back soon, I promise I’ll put on a show next time and let you enjoy the joy of conquering the Tai Chou Goddess.”

“Alas, the days are like years, how can I live without you?”

“The Red House is open, I greeted many old friends over, they are all interested in you, remember to contact me when you return to the Great Dao Mirror.”

“This red building of yours feels too small in scale, I helped you expand it.” “There are too many people, the red building is too small, and expanded it for you again.”

“Expanded it again.”

“Xue Xiuyu came over, presumably Shangguan Ling’er this little girl complained to go, you come back to teach this girl a good lesson. I and Xue Xiuyu argued with reason, she promised me to continue to expand the Red House for the last time, and recruited many more female officials.”

“Now the members of the red building all want to see you, all are female cultivators with stunning looks, you will definitely like it, see the message remember to look for me oh.”

Zhou Xuan fell silent.

Now how big the Red Mansion had expanded to, he no longer dared to think about it.

But judging from the Myriad Jade Divine Sovereign’s message, it had been expanded four times in a little over a year, so the scale was presumably very large.

“Alas! The Martial Election isn’t even over yet, and I’m thinking about it seven times, I’m still too conceited.”

After muttering to himself for a while, he had wanted to go to the Red Building to take a look and visit his foundation within the Great Dao Mirror.

But when he thought that the martial arts election was about to begin, Zhou Xuan wanted to slap himself, but the literary election was just the first, so rampantly proud, what if the martial arts election flopped?
The first time I saw you, I was so proud of you, and I was so proud of you, and I was so proud of you, and I was so proud of you, and I was so proud of you.

Wine and color hurt the body, Tongtian election period or all quit again, to be Tongtian election after the end, he then come to meet a bit of this universe within the female cultivators.

There is also the Myriad Jade Goddess, he must let the other side know that the first win does not count as a win, this big battle since it is opened, naturally, can not be easily ended.

However, just as Zhou Xuan was about to go offline, a burst of hot air came from his ears, “Xuan’er, you’re finally back.”

Zhou Xuan was startled and took a step back, fixing his eyes, but he saw Myriad Jade Divine Sovereign looking at him with a smiling face, she then could not help but be surprised, “Haven’t seen you in a year, you seem to have become stronger, come over here and let mommy take a look.”

“Mother Myriad Jade, I’m just going into the Great Dao Mirror to hang out and soothe my mind, I still have to participate in the Grand Competition tomorrow, I don’t have the time to stay for too long.”

“Wow.” Myriad Jade Divine Sovereign drifted off, “I thought you were dead, so it turns out you went to participate in the grand competition.”

This thing, the Great Competition, was found in every great realm, and was used to screen for celestial pride, and belonged to the rare and commonplace.

Some great competitions lasted for a long time, some great competitions lasted for a short time. A year’s time wasn’t considered long or short.

“Since you’re participating tomorrow, then you’re returning to the Great Dao Mirror, so you should want to take a rest.”

Speaking the word rest, Divine Lord Myriad Jade aggravated her tone.

And at this moment, Zhou Xuan also knew that getting off the line was impossible now, and he knew that he could wimp out on anything, but not that aspect.

“Not bad.” Zhou Xuan smiled calmly, “I was just reading the messages from Shangguan Ling’er and you, Divine Monarch, and I realized that the Red House seems to have expanded several times, how is the Red House now?”

“Package you like.”

Myriad Jade Divine Monarch’s eyes were flirtatious, then she pulled Zhou Xuan, and in a flash, she soon arrived at a building area.

There was a building in this area that rose straight into the sky, taller than even the Qi Tian Building of the Violet Sun Holy Land.

However, there were no clouds within the Great Dao Mirror, so that magnificent sight could not be seen.

But there was no sea of clouds churning, and when Divine Lord Myriad Jade led Zhou Xuan to the topmost floor, the scenery in front of him was enough to shock people.

Looking around, the sun, moon, and stars were within reach, and the starry river in the distance was like a flowing ribbon, decorating the entire sky like a dream.

Countless stars blossomed with their radiance, and under the curtain of the night sky, the river of stars was brilliant and picturesque, like countless brilliant diamonds set on the deep dark background.

The light flickered as if it was telling of the vastness and unknown of the universe.

“What a view!” Zhou Xuan was surprised, “I’m afraid this building isn’t tens of thousands of meters tall?”

“Just a hundred thousand meters.” The Myriad Jade Divine Monarch stood aside, not surprised, she had seen this kind of scenery too many times, but seeing Zhou Xuan surprised made her heart happy.

“This is the result of your expansion?”

“Not bad.” The Myriad Jade Divine Monarch laughed, “Other than that, looking down from this, everywhere you look around is the Red Mansion’s territory.”

“The scale you had back then was really too small, how many female cultivators are there within the Great Dao Mirror? It was as many as the stars, how could the tiny Red Tower you were trying to establish at the time possibly contain it all?”

I didn’t fucking want to open a red building of that magnitude.

Zhou Xuan looked downwards, and for the first time felt that his cultivation was too low, at 100,000 meters he couldn’t see the ground at all, and could only rely on his divine sense to sweep downwards.

Seeing a construction area around the red building, this is too big.

Zhou Xuan then thought of something and could not help but suck in a breath of cool air.

One must know that as long as one was a member of the Red Building, there were invisible benefits.

What benefits? Those who know it all understand.

How many members are there now, he doesn’t know, but it’s been expanded to this extent, so how can the number be less? Guess he didn’t have to do anything for these three times, a few hundred years to deal with these female cultivators wouldn’t be enough time, right?

But on second thought, the number of members, is not the Taoist money received soft.

He couldn’t help but say excitedly, “How many members do we have in the Red House?”

“I don’t know, this matter Shangguan Ling’er that girl management, but the last time I looked, it seems to have been millions.”

“So few?”

He thought it was a lot.

“If you think it’s too little, you can let the limit go.”

“Limit?”

“Not bad.” The Myriad Jade Divine Monarch said with an exasperated look on her face, “It was still that girl, Shangguan Ling’er, who ran off and complained to Xue Xiuyu, and then I discussed it with Xue Xiuyu.”

An Immortal Court Empress, a cosmic socialite, sat at a table to negotiate for the Red Tower.

There’s the picture.

“If it expands indefinitely, with the number of female cultivators in Huan Yu, I’m afraid that the size of this Red Mansion will grow bigger and bigger, and if it comes down in countless years, it’s likely that it’ll metamorphosize into a major Huan Yu power, so the number of people must be limited.”

Damn, why didn’t I think of this point?
But on second thought, even if he had thought of it, it would be impossible for him to make such a plan.

Because it was nothing more than a game, how could he have spent so long planning for it?

Everything that was going to be consumed with a lot of time, no matter how great the benefits would be when it succeeded, would be abandoned by him.

“Xue Xiuyu directly stipulated the number of members in each realm, so this way down, the number of members in the entire Red Mansion is set in stone, and the upper limit is just ten million, right?”

Ten million, that’s a lot alright.

In reality, these ten million people could establish a daughter kingdom.

Thinking about this, Zhou Xuan suddenly realized, “Is it because of the issue of the female officials of the Six Shang Great Realm?”

“Xuan’er is so smart.” The Myriad Jade Divine Sovereign wrapped her arms around Zhou Xuan and rewarded the other party with a cleanser.

“If the more members there are in the Red Mansion, then the number of maids in demand is also large, which is why that girl Shangguan Ling’er ran to complain.”

The Six Shang Great Realm was, after all, the female emperor’s forbidden domain, and for every expansion of the Red House by Divine Monarch Myriad Jade, she had to let Shangguan Ling’er go to woolgather the Six Shang Great Realm.

That was why Shangguan Ling’er was so frightened every time she brought someone back.

In the end, there was really no way out, if His Majesty knew about it, Shangguan Ling’er knew that she would definitely not be able to eat, so she could only cry and complain.

Thinking about this, Zhou Xuan could not help but hold his tongue.

Just then, Divine Monarch Myriad Jade took out a booklet and handed it to Zhou Xuan, “You still have to participate in the Grand Competition tomorrow, and you came to the Great Dao Mirror today, surely you intend to take a rest, this booklet is full of female cultivators of the Foundation Establishment Realm, because of your performance in the Great Dao Mirror, all of them are your admirers, and upon learning that you opened the Red Mansion, all of them have become members of the Red Mansion, so you can pick one.”

The one who knows me, Myriad Jade’s mom.

Zhou Xuan cried, his fearful heart could finally be put down.

If Goddess Myriad Jade wanted to fight him, for the sake of a man’s face, he definitely wouldn’t refuse.

But the consequences, everyone understands.
