Cultivation: The Heaven's Fated Useless Genius-Chapter 79 – People die for wealth, birds die for food!

Upon hearing this, the ailing Ji Qin immediately summoned Ji Wenxuan to the White Tiger Cave, questioning him in front of Ji Xuanming and Ji Xuanyang whether the rumors were true.

Under Gu Feng's guidance, Ji Wenxuan skillfully navigated the crisis.

He presented a large batch of Spirit Stones to Ji Qin, claiming the rumors were true, but he had concealed the discovery to prevent chaos if the three major Witch's Villages found out.

His elder brother, Ji Xuanming, was not concerned with these details and was eager to seize control of the so-called Xinning Stream Spirit Stone vein on the spot.

As the saying goes, "Men die for wealth, birds die for food."

The impoverished Ji Xuanming feared Ji Wenxuan would monopolize this immense fortune and shamelessly demanded he hand over the vein.

At that moment, a timely war report arrived in Ji Qin's hands, detailing the advance of the three major Witch's Villages' armies towards the Xinning Stream border.

After multiple confirmations, the news of the White Tiger Witch's Village discovering a Spirit Stone vein caused an uproar at the Northern Wilderness border.

The chiefs of the three major Witch's Villages could no longer sit still.

Faced with such blatant temptation, they feared acting too late and letting the White Tiger Witch's Village reap all the benefits.

The Rosefinch Witch's Village dispatched eight thousand troops; the Basalt Witch's Village sent four thousand; the Orient Loong God Witch's Village deployed three thousand.

A total of fifteen thousand cultivation troops unprecedentedly united, declaring war on the White Tiger Witch's Village!

The White Tiger Witch's Village was in grave danger, and Ji Qin was at a loss, unable to even get out of bed, let alone lead troops into battle.

As for Ji Xuanming and Ji Xuanyang, upon hearing that the three major Witch's Villages had united, bringing fifteen thousand troops to bear down on them, they were so frightened they nearly wet their pants.

They were adept at revelry.

But going to war? Forget it!

As Gu Feng had predicted, everyone turned their eyes to the silent Ji Wenxuan.

With no other choice, they unanimously chose Ji Wenxuan as the best candidate to lead the expedition.

Ji Wenxuan had anticipated this outcome.

This time, he had the upper hand.

He made a bold demand: he would lead the battle, but only if all the witch soldiers of the White Tiger Witch's Village were placed under his command!

All ten thousand three hundred of them! Not one less.

Though Ji Qin was nearing the end of his life, he was still cunning and worried that if Ji Wenxuan took all the forces, his base would be left vulnerable.

After some bargaining, Ji Qin left a thousand witch soldiers to guard the White Tiger Cave, while the remaining nine thousand were handed over to Ji Wenxuan with a wave of his hand.

Ji Xuanming was somewhat annoyed, but the thought of risking his life on the battlefield, facing the combined forces of over ten thousand from the three villages, was something he would never agree to!

Why go to war?

Was the wine not good enough? Or were the women in the village not beautiful enough?

What he couldn't stop thinking about, besides the chieftain's seat that Ji Qin occupied, was the so-called Spirit Stone vein.

He naively thought that once Ji Wenxuan settled the conflict, he could reclaim military power.

Then he could eliminate this troublesome bastard, and both the chieftain's seat and the Spirit Stone vein would be his!

A perfect plan to kill two birds with one stone!

Little did he know, Ji Wenxuan had already made plans and would not give him any chance to turn the tables.

Gu Feng lay in the Evernight Cave residence arranged by Ji Wenxuan, listening to Hou Yixiao recount the scene.

He couldn't help but laugh out loud, shaking his head, and exclaimed, "The White Tiger Witch's Village folks really are 'Ji Wenxuan in times of trouble, Ji Xuanming in times of peace'! No wonder this buddy was so easily fooled by me, even willing to take out his own father and brother!"

"Exactly, it's thanks to your strategic planning, Sequence, that you have these bumpkins dancing in the palm of your hand," Hou Yixiao chuckled, nodding as he sat by the bed.

He casually picked up a piece of fine witch food brought by the witch servants. Gu Feng had grown fond of this local delicacy, made from finely ground and sun-dried witch rice, a specialty snack of the witch people.

The texture was much like the tiramisu he loved in his past life.

He tossed a piece to Hou Yixiao, savoring the witch food himself, and asked, "When is that kid Ji Wenxuan leading the troops out?"

"They'll set out early tomorrow morning. It's said that the armies of the three major Witch's Villages are already nearing the Xinning Stream area, and any delay might cause changes," Hou Yixiao replied quickly, biting into a piece of witch food.

"These fools aren't beyond saving just yet."

Nodding in satisfaction, Gu Feng was pleased with the White Tiger Witch's Village's efficiency. If this were in Heroic Spirit City, mobilizing the entire Imperial City cultivation army would take the Elders at least three to five days of discussion to reach a decision.

With this in mind, Gu Feng had a bold idea.

Once he captured that old bastard, the Nine Tribulations Witch King, he would return to Heroic Spirit City to deal with Gu Kun and the Elders.

He should emulate Ji Wenxuan and establish a centralized ruling system, preferably abolishing the bothersome Elders!

That would save him future trouble.

"Are you ready on your end? Will you be going with Ji Wenxuan tomorrow?" Gu Feng asked again.

Hou Yixiao was momentarily stunned but quickly replied, "Rest assured, Sequence. I convinced Ji Qin, saying I'd keep an eye on Ji Wenxuan for him. That old man immediately agreed, and I'll be joining the army tomorrow."

Feeling reassured, Gu Feng nodded. He had arranged for Hou Yixiao to go as a precaution, in case anything unexpected happened with Ji Wenxuan, who was far away. At least there would be someone he could rely on.

After some thought, Gu Feng added, "Tomorrow, I'll have Feixue go with you. She's experienced in battle, and her cultivation is top-notch. With her keeping an eye on things, we won't have to worry about Ji Wenxuan suddenly getting hot-headed and charging into a decisive battle with the three major Witch's Villages."

Hou Yixiao nodded silently at these words.

Gu Feng's biggest concern was Ji Wenxuan not playing by the rules.

Relying on his troops, he might get excited and think himself invincible, foolishly wanting to challenge the three major Witch's Villages.

If he died on the battlefield or was captured, all of Gu Feng's plans would go up in smoke.

With Fang Feixue's support, Gu Feng was much less worried in this regard.

After all, the overall level of the four major Witch's Villages at the Northern Wilderness border was clear.

Fang Feixue, being a former Governor of the Chen Long Army in the Imperial City, should have no trouble handling these barbaric savages!

Squinting his eyes, Gu Feng rested his chin on his hand and coldly said, "Next, we'll see when that old bumpkin Ji Qin breathes his last."
