Chapter 527: 499: Skillfully Diffusing Danger by Leveraging Power



The stone man then held him up, placing Li Fan in front of everyone present.

Li Fan scanned the dense crowd of cultivators with a solemn face and said, “Not long ago, I was favored by my seniors and given the position of acting island master, charged with the task of rebuilding Misthaven Elysian City.”

“In my nature, I prefer the leisurely life, yet was suddenly given such a significant responsibility, which I felt a tremendous pressure.”

“Nonetheless, I dare not let down the Immortal Alliance or the senior leaders, so I made a military pledge to Prince Jinglun that I would rebuild the city within six months.”

“The time is short, and the task is heavy. But I believe that with the unified efforts of us, the Misthaven Sea cultivators, we will undoubtedly achieve our goal.”

“A city of a state, being taken away by others, is something unheard of!”

Pointing to the giant hole below, Li Fan said: “Every day this ruin exists is an indelible disgrace on the faces of us, the Misthaven Sea cultivators!”

“I hope that everyone will join me in wiping out this disgrace!”

Having said that, Li Fan bowed deeply to the crowd.

The cultivators were all moved, whether sincerely or reluctantly, they returned the courtesy.

“Upon the completion of the city reconstruction, I will still be here to reward merits, punish misdemeanors, and celebrate with you all!”

Li Fan stood straight, saying this loudly.

His voice spread far and wide, the echo lingered, refusing to disperse for a long time.

Everyone looked at Li Fan, with various expressions on their faces.

“Gao Yuan!”

After a moment of silence, Li Fan suddenly called out.

“Here!” Gao Yuan, full of pride, flew out.

“Announce for me the personnel orders for the city’s reconstruction!” Li Fan instructed.

“Yes!”

Feeling triumphant, Gao Yuan scanned the surroundings, cleared his throat, pulled out a scroll from his Storage Ring, channeled his spiritual power into his voice, and began to read aloud with all his strength.

“He Zhenghao, Guard of Liuli Island is hereby appointed as Chief Inspector, to oversee and regulate all aspects of material allocation and consumption during the city’s reconstruction.”

“Pei Tuo, Guard of Haitong Island, is hereby appointed as Chief Commandant, responsible for overseeing the security during the city’s reconstruction.”

“Zhou Qingang, Guard of Taian Island, is hereby appointed as Chief Commander, to coordinate communications among various departments during the city’s reconstruction.”

As each personnel order was announced, the expressions of the cultivators present became somewhat curious.

Because they found out that the cultivators being named were precisely the ones who had stood up to greet Li Fan just now.

And so everyone realized,

you guys knew about Li Fan’s appointment as acting island master early on and pledged allegiance to him?

And this Li Fan, he plays favorites completely openly and unabashedly!

Look at He Zhenghao, Pei Tuo, Zhou Qingang, and others, they are at most Peak of Golden Core.

Their status even outranks those Nascent Soul Monks – is this appropriate?

Even though people were complaining internally, they also regretted that they had not taken action earlier.

After the reading of the list was completed, Gao Yuan returned to the crowd, and Li Fan smiled: “The reconstruction of Elysian City is a huge task. My consideration is certainly insufficient.”

“Besides, there are plentiful talents within Misthaven Sea. There may inevitably be omissions. Therefore, I have appointed Gao Yuan as Chief Eunuch. If there are volunteers willing to contribute to the reconstruction of Elysian City, they can all look for him.”

As soon as his words came out, the cultivators, who were somewhat discontented at missing out on an opportunity, suddenly perked up.

“Everyone!” Li Fan finally summarized.

“When the Five Elders Organization launched a surprise attack, Misthaven Sea suffered heavy losses.”

“On the island, the Governance Hall, Array Strategy Hall, Martial Arts Battle Hall…”

“Almost everyone was wiped out! This has left many positions vacant, and we in the Misthaven Sea can’t even handle normal affairs.”

At this point, Li Fan paused for a moment.

He sighed, looked at the crowd, and said with a hint of expectation, “I hope that with your efforts, the glory of Misthaven Sea will be restored as soon as possible!”

Whether or not Misthaven Sea had glory before was not clear to the cultivators, but the meaning in Li Fan’s words was crystal clear:

Due to the sudden attack of the Five Elders Organization, there are now many vacant positions on the island! The little over a hundred people under my command just can’t fill these vacuums! Whoever is capable, come quickly! Opportunities are rare! By the time the Immortal City is built in half a year, it will be too late!

People suddenly understood.

Yes, these current positions are all “nominal” positions created for the reconstruction of the Immortal City.

Titles like Total Commander, Chief Inspector sound impressive, but their authority exists only because of the “authorization” given by Li Fan as the acting island lord.

The day the Immortal City is rebuilt, these positions would lose value and meaning.

On the contrary, what Li Fan spoke about of “rewarding merit and punishing crime” is what truly matters.

If one could make a significant contribution during the process of rebuilding the Immortal City, and obtain an office within the structure of the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals…

Thinking of this, the heartbeat of the cultivators present suddenly sped up.

The difficulty of the recruitment examination is very high, and getting promoted after officially joining the Alliance of Thousands of Immortals is even more difficult.

Master Li is right, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!

At this time, many gazes were quietly looking towards Gao Yuan, they were silently contemplating how to deal with this favored person in front of Master Li.

After giving some more encouraging words to everyone, Li Fan then announced that the ceremony had been successfully concluded, and the reconstruction work of the Immortal City would officially begin tomorrow.

Seeing this, Dan Taixian on the Flying Boat didn’t wait for the crowd to disperse or greet Li Fan before he directly flew away with his Boat.

His expression seemed very gloomy.

But most of the cultivators were immersed in their fantasies of making great achievements, and this scene did not attract much attention.

Li Fan watched the departing figure of Dan Taixian with a sneer in his heart.

As the cultivators present had guessed, the Oracle Son, Jing Xuan, Guang Wu, Huang Fusong and others were all brought out by Li Fan using their contribution values.

But this rising star of the Dan Tai’s family had no relationship or even guilt towards him. He could not possibly be bought with contribution values.

The reason he came to congratulate Li Fan was naturally due to the contract he was forced to sign with Jiao Xiuyuan during the previous Universal Leisure True Leaf incident.

He agreed to fulfill three requests within his power.

So even if Dan Taixian tried to sabotage him secretly, he still had to come and congratulate Li Fan.

As someone as proud as him being outmaneuvered by Li Fan this time is something embarrassing, of course, he would not openly say.

So in the eyes of some people, Dan Taixian’s contradictory actions were very mysterious.

As for the relationship with Dan Taixian becoming even worse, Li Fan didn’t consider this at all.

After all, he was going to abandon the identity of a Heavenly Machine Sect cultivator sooner or later, and having more enemies was not a problem.

What’s urgent now is to get the Misthaven Elysian City built.

Although he had gained people’s hearts and solved the staffing problem by taking advantage of the situation.

There is still a fatal trouble.

Li Fan recalled Jiao Xiuyuan’s words, “The number of materials on the list is correct and is enough to successfully build a Floating Fairy City.”

“But…”

“That’s under the circumstance that there are no mistakes.”

“During the actual construction process, there will be material losses due to mistakes.”

“I can sell some things to you at low prices through some channels.”

“But some special materials are strictly controlled by the Alliance of Ten Thousand Immortals, and can’t be bought even if you have the contribution value.”
