Chapter 827 506 Attack
This chapter is updated by JustRead.pl
```Zi Liyuan, in order to ensure the loyalty of his core members, directly signed the Boundary Sea Contract.
You could say it basically guaranteed the loyalty of his subordinates.
At least, while mid- and high-level members might have various entanglements of interest and even factional disputes, betrayal was absolutely out of the question.
The strict Boundary Sea Contract was completely capable of ensuring the loyalty of core members.
Unless a core member's strength surpassed Zi Liyuan's, allowing them to break free from the constraints of the Boundary Sea Contract, unafraid of the Heavenly Punishment unleashed by the Sea of Realms.
However, such entities capable of ignoring Heavenly Punishment were either Great Emperors or Demigods, and even Deities and Demons beyond them.
Such beings wouldn't possibly sign a Boundary Sea Contract with him, would they?
The alien races summoned into the city's tavern through the Sea of Realms were generally of the Boss template, though the quality differed among templates.
But for Zi Liyuan and the others, they currently lacked people, so as long as it was a Boss template, the quality didn't matter.
Fan Yuer didn't say anything, waved her hand grandly, and dumped a large pile of resources to recruit over ten thousand alien members.
However, she did choose slightly, with the lowest being Green Elite Quality Bosses, and the highest being Purple Epic Bosses.
Without further ado, she made them sign the Boundary Sea Contract right away, pledging their loyalty to Zi Liyuan, of course.
She then immediately gave them the Heart of the Lord, making them become Lords right away.
Afterward, she provided them with some supplies and resources, leveling up the Lord's Mansion to LV10 to lift the rules restrictions of the Sea of Realms.
As for further upgrades to the Lord's Mansion, they could take their time.
Since they had pledged allegiance to Zi Liyuan and signed the Boundary Sea Contract, it meant they were his loyal subordinates, requiring focused cultivation as a certainty.
However, before focusing on their cultivation, he needed to learn a bit about them.
For example, their personalities and qualities.
He didn't want to nurture any troublemakers. The cautionary example of the Wild Boar Skin Dynasty was right before his eyes.
The over ten thousand lords recruited this time were handed over to those lords who had already pledged allegiance for training.
The plan was to send them to various places for training and then see if they were capable enough to be strongly promoted and become a real part of the management team.
When it came to managing territories and logistics, Fan Yuer and her three sisters managed everything in an orderly fashion, leaving Zi Liyuan and the others without worries.
At this moment, the remnants of the old witch's territory were under joint attack by the eight lords.
Especially with the support from Mo Yi and Liu Yiqing, one wave wiped out the suppression army sent by the old witch.
This dealt a heavy blow to the old witch's vitality, making her combat power even weaker than the eight lords.
Naturally, this caught the attention of some keen-minded people, especially a few ministers under the old witch.
Given the current state of the Wild Boar Skin Dynasty, how could these corrupt officials not know?
After all, wasn't it their diligent work that resulted in such a situation?
With fire and rebellion everywhere and the Wild Boar Skin Dynasty resembling a sinking ship riddled with holes, they naturally wanted to find a way out.
As a result, some ministers with vested interests began gathering in secret.
If others could rebel, why couldn't they?
Rather than waiting to die, they thought it better to save themselves by joining the great cause of rebellion, becoming one of those rebels.
In time, after pledging allegiance to the strongest one, their families could still make money, live prosperous lives, and even gain more power.
Why not?
As for why they didn't think of raising their own flag and becoming king themselves,
they had some self-awareness. With what they had done, the best outcome was to avoid being purged.
Expecting to become rulers? Those rebels wouldn't hesitate to unite and tear them apart and desecrate their ancestors' graves if they even tried.
Thus, these ministers, planning to flee, began using their positions to embezzle the old witch's resources.
Treasuries, mines, money... They intercepted them under various pretexts and secretly sent them to their family estates.
The excuse for the seizures was that with rebels everywhere, taxes, mineral transportation, and such were all being intercepted by the rebels.
Indeed, before the Wild Boar Skin Dynasty erupted into chaos, they skimmed off layer by layer, leaving only thirty percent of the original to enter the old witch's personal treasury.
What happened to the money in the treasury wasn't their concern; it was siphoned off by the old witch's trusted eunuchs.
Of course, those useless wretches knew which things they could take and which they couldn't touch.
Therefore, for over a hundred years, rare incidents occurred.
In the few cases when there were incidents, it was because the treasury's resources couldn't cover the accounts.
In such cases, they'd throw out some scapegoats and adjust the accounts using the missing treasury resources to balance them.
All of this naturally happened without the old witch knowing.
You could say, they had eunuchs without balls calming the old witch internally, ministers conniving and scheming with each other at court, and local military cooperating to block and transfer resources.
Layer upon layer, with explicitly clear practices of corruption and malpractice.
Through this process, less than ten percent of the old witch's territory's taxes truly reached her hands for free use.
However, being suppressed by Kang Mazi and Yongzheng from fully asserting herself or ruling the Wild Boar Skin Dynasty, the old witch had long been living a carefree, Buddha-like life like her nickname "Old Buddha."
