Therefore, with a large army protecting the surrounding area, he no longer needed the close protection of Yan Wangqiu.

Yan Wangqiu’s temporary departure only meant that he lost an Inborn Combat Power, and it was not a big deal as long as it didn’t attract the attention of the court and outsiders.

On the other hand, if he could persuade the Nine River Sword Sect to form a secret alliance, it would bring even more help.

As Yan Wangqiu was taking action on his side, Lu Yuan also quickly started his move here.

“With this letter, head to Jiangxia County of Liang Kingdom. In the county’s government office, there is a Five Lakes Business Association. Hand over the letter to the owner of the Business Association, and tell him it’s from an old friend of Anqiu True Person, and he’ll know what’s going on.”

Lu Yuan exchanged a registered disciple of his own and handed over a letter he had just written, carefully instructing the other party.

“Yes, I will definitely deliver the letter,” the disciple bowed and took the order and turned away.

Looking at the departing figure, Lu Yuan couldn’t help but nod.

When Anqiu True Person found him and presented the Taiping Dao Book at the Inescapable Meeting, he had once mentioned:

If Lu Yuan was prepared to practice the Taiping Dao Book, he could send someone to deliver a letter to the Dan Ding Path, and they would provide financial support to help him succeed.

Now that he was preparing to face off with the court, he was in desperate need of accumulating strength.

Maintaining an army is really expensive.

Although Lu Yuan’s current soldiers and horses were temporarily supported by the court, he didn’t have to worry about military pay before they officially turned against each other.

But since he’s planning to recruit more troops and continue to strengthen his own strength, it’s inevitable that he’ll have to face a new expense.

The court won’t support these extra soldiers and horses that he recruited.

Previously, to cope with the emergency, the court reluctantly supported Lu Yuan’s troops. At this time, why would they spend their own money to help this local Army Leader expand his strength?

If they have spare money, wouldn’t it be better for the court to recruit more soldiers and horses?

So if Lu Yuan wants to expand his troops, he can only think of ways to raise money himself.

Even after turning against the court in the future, when they cut off military pay, he will still have to think of ways to raise money to support the current fifty thousand soldiers.

Although the previous conquest of the southern three prefectures earned Lu Yuan over 8 million silver tales, 5 million of them were already promised for restoring the local area under Sun Siwen.

There are only 3 million silver tales left, which can be used for military expenses.

Although the money is a lot, it can only support fifty thousand more soldiers and horses for a year at most.

It’s clear that Lu Yuan’s financial situation is far from enough for his future expenses.

Therefore, in order to avoid having no money to support the army in the future, it is necessary to take advantage of the present and get more silver before turning against the court.

And looking at all aspects, the best candidate to do so is the Dan Ding Path, which had once promised him and also has enough strength to draw funds from.

If he can get financial support from the Dan Ding Path, there is no doubt that it would alleviate Lu Yuan’s urgent needs and give him more financial leeway.

“After all, the Dan Ding Path is the largest Dao Vein in Liang Country, and its status in the Daoist Path is not inferior to the Ziyun Dao

Since they want to find me and conduct experiments to help them verify the Immortal Techniques, they can’t be stingy.

I don’t ask for tens of millions of silver tales in support, but a couple of millions should be easy for them to take out.

At any rate, I am an Inborn Grandmaster, and I am worth this price.

As long as I can get 5 million silver tales, it will be enough for one hundred thousand soldiers for a year’s expenses.

With this money, I’ll have more confidence when it comes to turning against the court.”

Lu Yuan murmured to himself with a smile on his lips.

Actually, he had never thought of revealing his practice of the Taiping Dao Book to others.

Otherwise, by the time he practiced the Taiping Dao Book, his Lifespan would not be reduced, and it would be difficult to explain.

So this time, asking Dan Ding Path for assistance is essentially deceiving them, making it a one-time deal.

If the Dan Ding Path sends someone to investigate, just directly lead them to the secret altar that Sun Siwen is currently building.

With such an altar there, it’s enough to deal with the Dan Ding Path and deceive them into providing aid.

By the time the silver arrives, and the Dan Ding Path asks why he hasn’t gone to practice and sacrifice yet, there will be plenty of excuses.

But no matter what excuse, Lu Yuan will never admit that he practiced the Taiping Dao Book.

After all, with his position in Jiangnan, in control of a strong army, and as an Inborn Grandmaster, wouldn’t he be untouchable as long as Dao Master of Dan Ding Path doesn’t take action?

And for the sake of just a few million silver tales, could it be that the Dao Master of the Dan Ding Path would travel thousands of miles to find trouble with Lu Yuan? That’s just making a big fuss over a small matter.

Therefore, considering all aspects, this business of deceiving aid is practically risk-free.

Even if Dan Ding Path found out they were being deceived, they could only suffer the loss.

Of course, just because he couldn’t reveal the fact that he was practicing the Taiping Dao Book doesn’t mean Lu Yuan couldn’t demonstrate Immortal Techniques in front of others.

For example, his newly acquired Five Thunder Book is very good.

Complete inheritance, no drawbacks, great power, and it can be brought to light as a cover.

“I can secretly practice the Taiping Dao Book, draw Immortal Spirit Qi from the Heavenly Pillars, and then use this Spirit Qi to practice the Five Thunder Book.

In this way, on the surface, I won’t have much to do with the Taiping Dao Book, but I am a legitimate practitioner of the thunder technique.

Moreover, the origin of the Five Thunder Book is easy to explain.

Brother Sun and I are old family friends, and his great-grandfather Sun Qingyi was accompanied by the former Dao Master of Ziyun Dao to ascension.

These are all things that can be checked, and maybe even Elder Daoist Zhen Xuan knew Sun Qingyi.

Therefore, my obtaining the Five Thunder Book from Brother Sun has a foundation and origin, and it won’t raise suspicions from others.

And with the superior Immortal Technique of the Five Thunder Book, people can easily understand that I would not want to practice the life-shortening Immortal Technique of the Taiping Dao Book.”

Maybe I can even use this as an excuse to stall for Dan Ding Path, saying that I got a new Immortal Technique halfway and didn’t want to practice the Taiping Dao Book anymore.

To answer where I got the Immortal Spirit Qi to practice the Five Thunder Book, I can just present the Immortal Fate Jade Plaat as the best evidence. 𝔣𝖗𝔢𝔢𝔴𝖊𝖇𝖓𝔬𝔳𝖊𝔩.𝔠𝔬𝖒

Sun Qingyi left behind an Immortal Fate Jade Plate for his descendants, which I got and used the stored Immortal Spirit Qi to set foot on the path of Cultivation, which is logical.”

Lu Yuan happily thought so in his heart and couldn’t help but give a compliment to his own wit.

With one ring after another, layers of covering would make it impossible for outsiders to guess that the Heavenly Pillar Altar was real, and he practiced the Immortal Technique of the Taiping Dao Book, with his Lifespan being reduced.

Outsiders will only see a lucky person who got an Immortal inheritance left by his predecessors and miraculously embarked on the Cultivation path.

Then, this lucky person, upon discovering that the path to immortality was broken, began to pursue the expansion of his power in the mundane world, wanting to become a king and emperor.

All the truths will be hidden under the fog created by Lu Yuan.

And his secret to longevity will be concealed forever.

Everything is perfect.
