Chapter 331: Chapter 330: The Master of Our Sect and Yun Zhi of Seek Dao Sect Have Comparable Cultivation Levels_1
Shi Huagu was greatly shaken, even Huo Huashen, who had always played the role of a silent expert, could not maintain his facade any longer.
Everyone witnessed the thriving business of the barbecue restaurant, the demand exceeding supply, it was almost as quick as robbing money.
Customers were queuing outside until the shop closed, the popularity was evident.
As a Great Power at the Unification Stage, Shi Huagu had tasted all sorts of delicious food on the earth. He had eaten foods far better than skewers, the ingredients of which were so hard to obtain that not even Spirit Stones could guarantee a taste.
Unlike the barbecue shop, where ingredients can be easily bought from the market.
The ingredients were ordinary, yet they could sell for sky-high prices, the profits were more than geometrically overflowing.
The profits of a barbecue restaurant alone would not be enough to mobilize those at the Divinity Transformation Stage or the Unification Stage.
What if the barbecue shop were to be expanded all over the Central Continent?
That profit would be massive, it would tempt anyone.
Of course, there is one more crucial point, he carries a debt of one billion. If he doesn’t pay back the money, he’ll be struck by lightning every month.
This is just the time when he needs money!
Fortunately, Shi Huagu was mature and stable, he did not seem overly excited. Suppressing his inner excitement, he said, “The business of your sect’s barbecue shop is indeed excellent. My Nine Nether Sect does have some industries, but compared to this shop, they are far inferior.”
Whether it’s smuggling or running a zoo, neither can rival the barbecue shop in terms of windfall profits. This is a profit margin several dozen times larger.
The most critical part is that they are a legitimate business, not afraid of investigation. Unlike their Nine Nether Sect, which barely has any regular industries the only regular industry they have is the funeral industry.
But the funeral industry is also dangerous. Once, a high-ranking member of the Nine Nether Sect, who was skilled at refining corpses, had the ridiculous idea of digging up the customers’ buried corpses for refining.
No one knows how, but the customers somehow found out and reported them.
Luckily, the Nine Nether Sect resolutely pushed out this foolish member and severed all ties with him.
“I just don’t know how it can be promoted throughout the continent? I’ve tasted a fair share of barbecued food, none of which compares to what I had today. I suppose your sect must have unique barbecue techniques and recipes, as well as the crucial Yang Invigorating Secret Method. Can these be promoted as well?”
Master Shi’s vision is very sharp, he quickly pointed out the difficulties of promoting it throughout the country.
Lu Yang chuckled lightly: “Our barbecue recipe comes from ancient times, so it’s normal that Master Shi has not tasted it before.”
“Please follow me.”
Lu Yang rose to his feet, leading Shi Huagu to the backyard where he showcased the automatic barbecue rack and the Skewer Array Method, leaving Shi Huagu astonished.
No wonder he’s the Junior Master of the Heavenly Court, he was really well prepared.
“The automatic barbecue rack was forged by the Guardian Multi-treasure, as for this Skewer Array…..” Lu Yang revealed a meaningful smile.
“Where does this Skewer Array come from?”
“This array was forged by several Unification Stage Ghouls under the command of our sect’s Master.” Lu Yang disclosed a piece of shocking news to Shi Huagu.
Shi Huagu’s pupils contracted slightly.
A Unification Stage Ghoul was the highest cultivation level Ghoul known.
Only having one major level higher could refine a Ghoul.
This suggested that the ‘Master’ Lu Yang was referring to was a Great Power at the Transcendance Tribulation Stage!
So, the Heavenly Court does possess those at the Transcendance Tribulation Stage!
“I wonder who the Master of your sect is….”
Instead of answering directly, Lu Yang laughed and said, “I wonder if Master Shi has heard of Yun Zhi from the Seek Dao Sect?”
Shi Huagu had secretly gathered a lot of information about the Five Great Immortal Sects, including Yun Zhi, who surpassed all the other sect masters.
According to his estimation, Yun Zhi of Seek Dao Sect had already cultivated to the late stage of Transcendance Tribulation. At such a young age her Cultivation Level has reached this realm, creating a major obstacle for others to attain Immortality in the Great Era, she is a formidable adversary!
“Our sect’s Master has crossed hands with Yun Zhi of Seek Dao Sect, their Cultivation Levels are on par.”
“What?!”
Shi Huagu’s eyes widened in surprise, the Master of the Heavenly Court Sect really possessed superb Cultivation Level.
Probably only a Cultivator of such level would qualify to be the Sect Master of the Heavenly Court.
Originally, Shi Huagu thought that the Heavenly Court, having numerous sleepers and decaying power, was not as it used to be, but his meeting today completely overturned his previous estimation.
Perhaps the power of Heavenly Court does not surpass the ancient Heavenly Court, but it is definitely stronger than their Nine Nether Sect.
Choosing to make contact with the Heavenly Court was indeed a wise decision!
“Also, this kindling flame, is a new type of True Fire, researched and developed by our sect, not only does it improve the taste of the skewers, but it also has Yang Invigorating effects.”
Lu Yang held up a wisp of flame, the integration of the Three Flavored True Fire and the Pure Yang True Fire.
Shi Huagu used his Spiritual Sense to carefully observe the flame, and found this to be a whole new True Fire, not part of the hundred and eight True Fires, but merely a shadow of the Samadhi True Fire and the Pure Yang True Fire.
The Pure Yang True Fire doesn’t have Invigorating Effects.
Apparently, the Heavenly Court, seemingly inactive, had been quietly setting up a series of moves, just waiting for the final piece to fall.
Otherwise, how could the Heavenly Court have developed a new kinda of True Fire solely for barbecuing?
“Junior Master, these things should not be shared with outsiders. This was originally our Heavenly Court’s tool for expansion and the basis for our intelligence network!” Fifth Elder advised with a frown.
Lu Yang did not approve of Fifth Elder’s comments, he countered: “It doesn’t matter, during ancient times, there was a strong connection between the Heavenly Court and the Nine Nether Sect, so it is reasonable to assist them in regaining their former glory now, even if the Master and my Mentor were to know about this, they would not blame me.”
“Moreover, the Heavenly Court sect has few members, even if all of us are mobilized, how many barbecue restaurants can we open?”
With no more word from the Fifth Elder, since the Junior Master was willing to bear the responsibility, he, as the protector of the Heavenly Court, couldn’t say much.
Shi Huagu was very moved, never expecting to have such a rich relative in the Nine Nether Sect.
This Junior Master holds high moral integrity, even risk being scolded by the Master and Bean Tianzun, he is willing to help the Nine Nether Sect.
Lu Yang turned his head, putting on a smiling face, as if there had been no conflict with the Fifth Elder just now, he said: “Master Shi, as you heard, though I am a disciple of Tianzun, on some things, I still cannot make the final decision. However, this does not affect our cooperation.”
“I can give the barbeque seasonings and the Array Method of the skewer to your sect for free.”
One scan with the Spiritual Sense, he could roughly deduce the principles of the barbecue seasoning and the Skewer Array, so Lu Yang didn’t really need to conceal it. He might as well offer the Nine Nether Sect a favor and give it straight to them.
“The automatic barbecue grill and the fire seeds, I can provide them to your sect regularly and in specific quantities, but our Heavenly Court requires 60% of the profit.”
The automatic barbecue grill has a prohibition placed by the Fifth Elder, it can’t be cracked.
The fire seed needs to be operated by him and Meng Jingzhou.
Afterall, proposing to start a barbecue restaurant was an initiative by the Heavenly Court, they should definitely get a larger share of the profit, which Shi Huagu could assure.
However, considering his status, he couldn’t simply agree to Lu Yang’s proposal: “You get four, I get six!”
“Our Heavenly Court sect will get 60%.” Lu Yang dryly said.
“Let’s go fifty-fifty!”
“Our Heavenly Court sect will get 60%.”
Lu Yang held firm, giving Shi Huagu no room for negotiation.
Realizing that he had no advantage in this aspect, Shi Huagu gritted his teeth. He didn’t negotiate further and accepted the profit-sharing method proposed by Lu Yang.
The two discussed some details and quickly settled on a contract.
“It’s a pleasure working with you.” Lu Yang said, shaking hands with a beaming smile.
