While both shi mingxi and Shi Yixue were busy. cultivating inside there room. The shi clan elder were hosting emergency meeting.
Meetings in shi clan are very rare but now the situation require the meeting. After all they have no idea how many manual they will be provided by the girls.
"This matter is extremely important we need to gather all kids from 5 to 10 who are at best age to start cultivating."
"We also don't know how many manual there are."
"Not only that we have no idea how the girls such huge amount of money."
"I think child like them have no idea how to spend money why don't we keep the money for them to prevent them from reckless spending"
"Shameless, since when our shi clan had interfere with the management of any child money. You just want to chest money from the you girls"
The one who suggest keeping the money is 47 year old man already married and have three kids, he known seventh elder.
The one who rebuke him was 69 year old women and she also the one responsible for disciplining the kids, she never married and called third elder.
Seventh elder face burned from the embarrassment. But he still don't give up on the girls money.
Second elder "third elder is right we have no right on how they spend there money. Our clan main motive is to provide safe space to young one and let them grow safely."
First elder "we should be grateful that they are willing to provide the shi clan with the manual. If they want to they would have just keep quite about it."
Forth elder "at most we can give them suggestions nothing more."
Fifth elder "but the question still remain how they manage to get money to provide the shi clan with the manual. What if they are of unknown channel."
Sixth elder "right right I think it's better to ask them about the origin. If they can't explain it then it's better for us elder to take the money and search for it origin."
Seventh elder "no matter what we shi clan members are honest people we can't expect stuff from unknown origin."
Clan head "I can see where are you going. You want to take the money yourself and enjoy your life. But remember this as long as we are here no one can touch there money."
Third elder "although they are greedy. But I'm uncomfortable from using anything brought from unknown origin."
Clan head "once they emerge from the room. We will ask about the money origin. If it money gained by robbing or anything we will not use the money."
Half of the elder were satisfied with the meeting and half were left fuming in anger. After the offical meeting another unofficial meeting was held by two group.
One that's want to take away girls money. The other who don't want to do that but were forced to think of a solution.
Clan head "I'm afraid those three will seek help from outside." Everyone had grim expression on there faces.
First elder "why don't we just send them away somewhere they can be safe" he raised his question.
Forth elder "and put them on risk of being tricked by other people. For heaven safe they are ten and eleven year old."
Second elder " although letting such young kids live on there own is risky. But atleast they will be free."
Third elder "I'm more afraid that they will target the bloodline. Do you remember the news of big family kids being kidnapped and there bloodline getting stolen."
Clan head "that's the worse case scenario what if they are just after money" he try to little positive.
Third elder only give him disappointed look with her sharp eyes "yet they are still after someone else money"
Second elder "I still don't know how they even become elder of our clan." Everyone slowly turn toward the clan head.
Clan head "don't look at me. They are best at handling budget, teaching history and handling the kitchen I have no other choice. Who would had thought they were so greedy."
Everyone turn there head away not wanting to see grown man pout like a child. When they were arguing and thinking about solution.
In another room, three equally greedy man were seating around in circle discussing how to take over the girl money under the nose of others.
Fifth elder "I don't think so we can get our hand on the money as long as those people are here." He spoke irritatedly.
Sixth elder "pah stupid old bones don't understand how much benefits it will bring to the clan"
Seventh elder "fifth is right. If we want to take over the girls money. We need to bring help from strong people who can handle these old bones easily"
As they were cooking up evil plans together against the girls.
The two were busy with cultivation. Shi Yixue with her high magic talent was able to sense the spiritual energy in air.
And she did in just one day. Then she focus on introducing the spiritual energy inside her body to actually step on path of cultivation.
As for shi mingxi her magic talent is 7 and she took five days to sense the spiritual energy present in the air.
Both literally spend a whole month inside the room without stepping out. They consume the fasting pill to provide their body with nutrients.
Shi Yixue was the one who came out of the room first it was still dark outside when she came out.
Everyone were sleeping. Unknown this actually end up helping her and shi mingxi to escape from here early.
Then she leave the clan and went to the Heavenly Treasure Pavillion. Sometime people arrive here under the cover of dark to protect themselves from the eyes of thief.
She also arrived here to exchange some of her currency. After all she can't walk around using high grade Spirit jade.
She exchange 1 high grade Spirit jade for 80 midgrade spirit jade, 1000 low grade and 10,000 blue jade mark.
