Chapter 1417 - 861: They’re All My Brothers

"During work, you are an elite Soul Cultivator with extensive experience and professional knowledge."

"Outside of work hours, you forget all work memories, leave behind all work-related worries, frustrations, and boredom, becoming a free soul that has never worked before!"

...

Looking at the content in the live broadcast room, Vice President Xie Lanyin was shaken: "Law Realm? They’re secretly preparing to use Law Realm technology to influence the soul repair industry in the Old Graveyard?"

"All along, the Joint Venture’s secret preparations have concealed the news of Law Realm technology support, clearly intending to catch us off guard when it officially opens."

Xie Lanyin quickly thought to herself: "The Wanfa Sect wants to take this opportunity... to expand the Law Realm here?"

"The Reincarnation Immortal Emperor agreed too? To rectify the internal factions of the Sky Demon Sect, he is willing to personally seize the soul repair industry’s profits and support the Ten Thousand Laws Immortal Emperor’s Law Realm expansion?"

At this moment, Xie Lanyin’s heart rang alarm bells.

Because she realized... from this moment on, the intensity of the Taoist struggle in the Old Graveyard was escalating again.

If, originally, it was just a confrontation between High Intelligent Artifact Spirits and Soul Cultivators, and internal competition among Soul Cultivators, then from this moment on... the Taoist struggle related to the Law Realm was inserted, even watched by the Ten Thousand Laws Immortal Emperor and the Reincarnation Immortal Emperor.

Looking at Zhang Yu who was still eloquently speaking in the live broadcast room, Xie Lanyin thought to herself: "This kid... really isn’t afraid of death, actively involving himself in such an intense Taoist struggle."

The next moment, Xie Lanyin immediately contacted Xiao Yunhe to find out his attitude towards this.

"Chairman Xiao, has your Sky Demon Sect internally decided to support the Wanfa Sect in expanding the Law Realm here?"

However, Xiao Yunhe’s face showed no surprise or disturbance, calmly saying, "Vice President Xie, as for the Joint Venture and the support of Law Realm technology... while we don’t support it, we also can’t directly oppose it."

Regarding the intrusion of Law Realm technology, although Xiao Yunhe was also surprised, he was not completely unprepared.

Upon learning of the Joint Venture’s news, Xiao Yunhe had already considered all the worst possibilities, including the Law Realm, given the current situation of the Sky Demon Sect.

"Our sect’s Immortal Emperor... even supports the Law Realm, seemingly determined to change the structure of the Soul Cultivation Dao and suppress the Immortal Venerable Duoe."

"But to block my Immortal Road, so what if he’s an Immortal Emperor? Should I avoid his edge?"

"Since I am supporting the Taoist inheritance of Immortal Venerable Duoe, I believe Immortal Venerable Duoe should be the Master of the Sky Demon Sect and become the new Immortal Emperor."

Looking at Zhang Yu in the live broadcast room, Xiao Yunhe’s mind conjured the image of Bu Yingshu.

He wondered what gave a Level 4 Sect Affairs Officer like Zhang Yu the courage to participate in such a level of Taoist struggle? He might not even understand the significance of his actions.

This kind of responsibility and courage to preside over the escalation of the Taoist struggle, in Xiao Yunhe’s view, could only be attributed to Bu Yingshu backing Zhang Yu.

"Bu Yingshu, since you all want to escalate the Taoist struggle, let’s add fuel to the fire and see who’s the first to break."

...

In the live broadcast room, Zhao Tianxing said beside him, "Boss! There’s still the First Day Mode."

"Right, we need to highlight this," Zhang Yu said seriously: "The so-called First Day Mode is a key project I’ve been focusing on in the company, stemming from some of my experiences, which has made me consistently aware of the health, psychological status, and mental risk of the Soul Cultivators."

"I’ve always considered every Soul Cultivator under me as my brother."

"Just like Zhao Tianxing by my side, as well as Mo Tianyi, Hu Yuntao..."

As images of various Soul Cultivators appeared, Zhang Yu introduced their backgrounds: "They all come from the Kunxu Second Floor, or even the First Floor, they are all my good brothers."

"The reason I was able to climb to this position today is inseparable from the support of these good brothers."

"The reason I always keep them by my side is that I will never give up on any brother. Of course, those who don’t work hard and fight together are not my good brothers."

While speaking, Zhang Yu thought that if these words were said on Earth, he might be criticized by many people.

But when said in Kunxu, it is taken for granted by everyone.

After all, to these Kunxu Cultivators, those who don’t work hard or fight hard don’t even deserve to live, let alone be called brothers.

Zhang Yu continued: "But after long-term high-intensity work, many of our brothers are at risk of mental collapse."

"Back when I was on the Kunxu Second Floor, I saw employed Soul Cultivators fall into the risk of mental collapse due to long-term high-intensity work, eventually having to put themselves into sleep... From then on, I hoped that one day, I could change the survival environment of Soul Cultivators."

"Therefore, upon establishing the Joint Venture, I immediately sought out experts in Immortal Dao Technology from Wanfa Sect and Sky Demon Sect, and ultimately developed the First Day Mode..."

...

In the Spirit Realm, countless Soul Cultivators watching the live broadcast were shocked.

For many Soul Cultivators, this was the first time in years they heard a Sect Affairs Officer openly acknowledge the contributions of Soul Cultivators, even recognizing them as brothers in a live broadcast.

On the other side, watching Zhang Yu’s storytelling, Su Lingyou from the Sky Demon Sect thought to herself: "Telling stories?"

But considering the feedback from the Spirit Realm and seeing the support rate for Soul Cultivators approaching 35%, Su Lingyou had to admit that this rhetoric was very effective on Soul Cultivators.
