After Fu Li escaped, he gathered dozens of remnants from the Fellowship Alliance.
These people weren't particularly loyal to the Fellowship Alliance, but in the current Cultivation World, it was hard to survive alone.
Fu Li hid with these people and refrained from drawing too much attention. Every time they killed and plundered, they did so discreetly, secretly recruiting members and strengthening their power.
When Luo Zhongjie pursued the remaining Fellowship Alliance cultivators, over two hundred Treasure Hunters at the mouth of Mountain Valley were bleeding from every pore. The most eerie thing was that these people hadn't died yet; they wore satisfied smiles on their faces.
The cultivators lurking on the peaks around, watching the battle, shivered at the sight of these Treasure Hunters' gruesome deaths.
More than three hundred people came to attack Mountain Valley, and they had already lost two hundred without even seeing the enemy's figures. Their deaths were inexplicable.
Facing such opponents, who would dare to provoke them in the future? When encountering the East Zhou Trading Caravan outside, it was best to keep as far away as possible.
Wang Hong ordered a few of his subordinates to ingest antidotes in advance, then went to the mouth of Mountain Valley to remove the Storage Bags from the bodies of the cultivators.
They also took off various equipment worn by these cultivators, including defensive spiritual armor, robes, boots, and hundreds of other items.
All the items that Treasure Hunters could wear were high-quality treasures.
The cultivators watching from the peaks above looked down at the various treasures piled up on the ground at the mouth of Mountain Valley, treating them like garbage.
The Storage Bags taken from the Treasure Hunters were also casually piled on the ground.
For these cultivators who had made a living by killing and plundering for decades or even centuries, they felt that their treasure-hunting careers had been in vain.
However, just moments ago, they had witnessed the immense strength of the East Zhou Trading Caravan. Even if they were given ten times the courage, they wouldn't dare to be greedy.
These Treasure Hunters made up their minds not to provoke the East Zhou Trading Caravan again in the future and quietly retreated, avoiding feelings of inferiority.
As for whether they would encounter other cultivators on the way back who would engage in killing and plundering, only time would tell.
The group transported all these items back to the valley and spent several days organizing them.
These Treasure Hunters had plundered far and wide, essentially gathering the wealth of many sects and families in the surrounding area into Wang Hong's hands.
The various Spiritual Objects they had acquired last time hadn't been used up yet, and the trading caravan had earned even more now.
Luo Zhongjie had to build two more massive warehouses to store all these Spiritual Objects.
"East Master, all these Spiritual Objects have finally been organized. Here are the accounts; please review them," Luo Zhongjie said, having spent several days organizing the accounts.
"Hmm, there are so many!" Wang Hong casually glanced at them and couldn't help but be shocked by the amount.
No wonder there were so many; it turned out that even the cultivators who had been diligently cultivating had recently joined the ranks of Treasure Hunters.
"All these Spiritual Objects piled up in the warehouses are of no use. Items have value when they are put to use. You arrange for the new Foundation Building members to continue refining second-tier items. The finished products will still be sold by the trading caravan," Wang Hong instructed.
He had originally planned to select some talented individuals and allocate resources for their intensive training. However, in the face of these large warehouses filled with Spiritual Objects, such a plan was no longer necessary.
"Understood, I will arrange it. Currently, all the members in the first-tier stage have mastered their respective skills. Some Alchemists can achieve a Pill Success Rate of seventy to eighty percent when refining first-tier pills. Other skills like refining tools and talisman making are also at a similar level."
Reaching such a level meant that they were already quite outstanding in their respective fields, and profitability was inevitable.Chapter 320: Spoils of War

Reaching such a level meant that they were already quite outstanding in their respective fields, and profitability was inevitable.
It could be predicted that after some time, the warehouse would once again become packed with items acquired solely for profit.
"Good! Excellent! Next time our trading caravan goes out, we can trade all first-tier Spiritual Objects for Spirit Stones. For second-tier Spiritual Objects, we can select a portion to sell for lower-grade Spirit Stones," Wang Hong instructed.
Other forces might be reluctant to exchange second-tier Spiritual Objects for lower-grade Spirit Stones, but he always needed lower-grade Spirit Stones.
Shortly after Luo Zhongjie left, Yang Tiezhu and Ling Xue entered together.
"East Master!"
"Uncle Wang!"
They both bowed upon entering. When Ling Shuai left, he entrusted Ling Xue to Wang Hong's care. Wang Hong arranged for Ling Xue to stay in Mountain Valley because there were more people her age here, and she felt more comfortable.
Surprisingly, the delicate Ling Xue had the best relationship with the burly Yang Tiezhu.
"East Master, do we still have those heavy melee Spiritual Weapons that can be exchanged? These Spiritual Weapons are too light for me to handle," Yang Tiezhu asked.
She had successfully reached Foundation Building not long ago, and among the one hundred cultivators of the same batch, she was the only one who had not learned cultivation techniques. Influenced by Luo Zhongjie and others, she had even started practicing body refinement. However, she also knew that despite exchanging for a Resplendent Visage Elixir, she hadn't developed bulging muscles on her face. Her face remained smooth and deceptive.
"How heavy are you looking for?" Wang Hong asked with interest.
"At least two to three hundred pounds! These ones are too light; they feel like feathers in my hands," Yang Tiezhu replied while clenching her fist, her slender fingers making a cracking sound.
Among their spoils, there were no close combat weapons suitable for body cultivators.
After thinking for a moment, Wang Hong rummaged through his Storage Bag and found a Wolf Fang Club.
It was the one he had obtained by killing a lurking Demonic Beast at the Blackstone Valley Market. At that time, he had sensed that the quality of this Wolf Fang Club was good and had kept it.
"Try this one. How does it feel?" Wang Hong handed the Wolf Fang Club to Yang Tiezhu.
As soon as Yang Tiezhu held it, she felt a weight in her hand and tried swinging it. It felt slightly heavier, but her strength had been steadily increasing, so a little extra weight was actually preferable. She could handle it for a long time.
"East Master, I'll go outside and try it!" Yang Tiezhu accepted the Wolf Fang Club and was eager to test it out.
"Let's go! We'll head to the training ground outside."
As they walked out, they reached a spacious area in Mountain Valley, the ground fortified with sturdy formations. This place was used for daily practice and various magical arts exercises.
When they arrived at the training ground, they found many people already practicing.
Yang Tiezhu wielded the Wolf Fang Club and practiced for a while, feeling that it suited her well.
"Big Brother Zhang, Big Brother Li, I've got a new Spiritual Weapon. Would you like to spar with me?" Yang Tiezhu asked two cultivators not far away who had been recruited at the same time as her. They often practiced together.
Hearing Yang Tiezhu's request, the two of them wore awkward expressions. If Wang Hong hadn't been there, they would have fled long ago.
They had sparred with Yang Tiezhu many times before and were always on the receiving end.
Nowadays, everyone knew that Yang Tiezhu was a battle maniac. Beneath her delicate appearance, she hid a wild heart.
