"Brilliant! Truly brilliant!"
"Who would have thought that this young fellow, despite his youth, could achieve such a masterful stroke, bringing the dragon to life with a single stroke? The previous assembly was so dull, but now it's instantly vibrant."
"Indeed! Before, the major sects practically monopolized the Sacred Cult's rewards! Smaller sects had little chance to develop, but now it's better. Fair bidding and trading, everyone has hope!"
"I have a feeling that the position of Alliance Leader is destined for this kid!"
"Hiss, I feel the same! Apart from Elder Xingbei, he's probably the most suitable..."
Elder Xingbei!
The mention of this name brought a sigh from several elders. If not for a world-ending catastrophe, Elder Xingbei would not have emerged. Even now, with the corpse monsters rampant, Elder Xingbei remained peacefully in seclusion, showing no inclination to come out.
Looking at the scene!
The previously listless demon-slaying assembly had suddenly become lively. Seeing this, some people followed suit, setting up small stalls around them to sell trinkets.
Su Han did not stop them, allowing free trade!
The entire assembly instantly transformed into a marketplace.
And this, precisely, was Su Han's ingenious move!
In the past, the Sacred Cult always distributed secret manuals and rewards based on merit, but the scope was too small, and everyone's progress was slow.
For the Sacred Cult, it was also a huge burden!
Now.
Su Han planned to establish a black market for trading, attracting these experts to conduct their business here.
Furthermore, Su Han could collect a fee in the future, gather popularity, issue missions, and earn commissions!
This was infinitely more efficient than the previous model.
Thinking of the wonderful days ahead, Su Han felt that the most crucial thing was to win over Tang Xiyao first.
Only then could she wholeheartedly dedicate herself to him!
"Tsk tsk, I suppose in the future, this black market will require personnel from the Sacred Cult to work. So, Tang Xiyao, you'll be half the boss's wife... As for wages, the boss's wife doesn't get paid, it's all voluntary work, hahaha..."
As he pondered, Su Han immediately saw Tang Xiyao glare at him, as if sensing something.
Soon.
The day's trading concluded!
Su Han returned to Tang Xiyao's home, located on an island at sea, which was the headquarters of the Sacred Cult. The most luxurious villa there was where Tang Xiyao was staying.
Sitting on the spacious sofa, Su Han tallied the profits from selling goods today!
Beside him, Qin Shiya excitedly reported!
"Su Han, we've struck it rich! Guess how much cash we have?" Qin Shiya was full of excitement. Despite her extremely noble status as a Saintess, she was now stunned by the astonishing figures.
Su Han beside her said calmly, "Just tell me directly, I won't be surprised!"
"Trillions, trillions!"
Holding up three slender white fingers, Qin Shiya exclaimed, "Three trillion US dollars! My heavens, this money is enough for our expenses for over a hundred years!"
Su Han was also slightly surprised, as the main focus of this transaction was not cash at all!
He hadn't expected.
That after one trip to the secret realm, they would earn three trillion in cash alone.
But then again, it made sense!
Those who could come to this demon-slaying assembly were, without exception, powerful individuals representing vast forces. Normally, the Earth-grade secret treasures they purchased would cost billions, let alone now encountering top-grade Heaven-grade secret treasures, where the price was driven up by fierce bidding.
"Three trillion, hmm. If I go back and tell Su Muqing about this, wouldn't she go crazy immediately? With so much money, she'd probably marry me on the spot, hehe, never mind! She's just a woman who loves money. Next item!"
Su Han muttered.
Immediately, he heard Qin Shiya continue her report!
"Rare materials, weapons, and pills are all here, take a look yourself..." Qin Shiya handed a list to Su Han. There were simply too many items on it.
So many that her eyes were already dazzled!
At this moment, Su Han took the list and scanned it. The harvest this time was truly extremely rich. Perhaps everyone had never seen top-grade Heaven-grade secret treasures before, and they had overdone it, with each item being auctioned at an extremely high price.
The biggest gains were in pills!
Among these pills, some were refined by renowned alchemy families, representing the cream of the crop. Healing pills, strength-enhancing pills, and so on, were the most popular varieties on the market. The quantity was enough for Su Han to open a chain of pharmacies.
"Hmm? What is this Golden Dragon Pill?" Su Han asked in surprise.
As soon as he spoke, before Qin Shiya could answer, Tang Xiyao, who was beside them, spoke up.
"Oh, let me explain. There was an Elder Nie who wanted a piece of calligraphy and painting, and he offered some healing pills in exchange. I didn't agree, but he was too impatient and finally gave me a Golden Dragon Pill!" Tang Xiyao said.
"As for its medicinal effect, it seems to enhance... that aspect..."
By the end, Tang Xiyao's voice had become very faint, almost inaudible.
Su Han understood immediately!
He never expected such a miraculous medicine to exist in the martial world, and he quickly took it.
"Don't look at me like that. I'm just taking it back to test its effects on some elders in my family. I have no other intentions! Besides, I'm already so strong, do I need further enhancement?"
As he spoke, Su Han immediately tucked the Golden Dragon Pill into his chest, carefully safeguarding it!
He chuckled.
After putting away all the gains, Su Han looked at the two women beside him!
This time, for the two women to have survived this ordeal without him would have been a pipe dream... It could be said that Su Han had helped them greatly.
Moreover, he never helped for free!
With a chuckle, Su Han said, "Hiss... What did I say earlier? If we got through this difficult period, someone was going to give me some sweet rewards, right? Oh yes, Tang Xiyao, now that everyone knows you're a woman, you should take off that male attire and change into this!"
Immediately, Su Han took out a set of tight-fitting sportswear from his pocket. However, this sportswear was unusual; the middle section was very prominent, accentuating a woman's curves, belonging to a rather indecent type!
As expected.
Tang Xiyao glanced at it and her face began to flush, her cheeks turning as red as blood!
"Su Han, I don't want to wear this!"
Just as Tang Xiyao was about to struggle and refuse, she suddenly heard a voice in her mind.
"Agree to him, otherwise, this kid will end up with Qin Shiya!" Like a devil's whisper, Tang Xiyao, for some reason, felt as if she were possessed. Driven by an inexplicable impulse, she took the clothes...
