Chapter 580: Moon Tower Suffers Heavy Losses

After the Wangyue Tower Master finalized the strategy, he personally arranged for some trustworthy individuals to serve as the management for Wangyue Pavilion's various industries.

As for the position of Chief Brewer, it was still held by Elder Li, who had been replaced by Xu Chu.

The others were all newly appointed, and theoretically, these new executives should thank Xu Chu.

After all, if not for Xu Chu's actions, they would likely have waited decades, or even a century, without the opportunity to rise.

Especially Elder Zheng; if Elder Qian hadn't been poisoned and was still in critical condition, he wouldn't have been qualified to become the Wangyue Pavilion's Chief Butler even if he waited until his lifespan was exhausted.

Also, Elder Li; if Xu Chu hadn't come to retaliate against Wangyue Pavilion and deliberately pulled these stunts…

Elder Li's chances of winning against Xu Chu through a challenge would only grow smaller and smaller, until he would never have hope of returning to that position.

However, they naturally kept these thoughts to themselves and wouldn't voice them.

"Everyone, from now on, it's all up to you!" the Wangyue Tower Master said with a serious expression, looking at the crowd.

Although these people were trustworthy, their abilities still needed evaluation. However, there was no time for thorough assessment and selection now; they could only be forced into action.

Everyone quickly replied in unison, "We will certainly live up to your expectations!!!"

They also wanted to firmly secure their positions and even prayed inwardly that the six poisoned senior leaders would never wake up.

Thus, in the following period, Wangyue Pavilion's branches in various locations became busy.

First, they had to ascertain who bought the improved Spiritual Wine from each store, to prevent those trying to take advantage of the chaos to claim compensation from succeeding.

This was a very arduous task, time-consuming and labor-intensive.

Take Seven Kings City as an example.

There were at least tens of thousands of Cultivators from different factions who were swindled by Wangyue Pavilion's improved Spiritual Wine.

For instance, many guests at Xiang Qian's birthday banquet were affected.

Therefore, the butler responsible for Wangyue Pavilion in the East Continent, along with the innkeeper and a Quasi-Emperor Realm expert, personally brought generous gifts to Xiang Mansion to apologize for this matter.

This matter was neither big nor small. It was just Wangyue Pavilion; if it were any other weaker force, Butler Zhou from the mansion would have already dealt with them.

Since Wangyue Pavilion had given him enough Face and their attitude was very good, Xiang Qian naturally accepted the apology, and the matter was closed.

After leaving Xiang Mansion, their group continued to visit other factions.

Only factions of this caliber were worthy of having the butler bring an Emperor Realm expert to apologize in person.

For weaker factions, the butler would go with the innkeeper, but the Emperor Realm expert would not accompany them.

Finally, the remaining Loose Cultivators and some ordinary factions were invited by the innkeeper to a banquet where he offered apologies.

Truly distinguished Cultivators and factions did not care about compensation; they only needed a reasonable explanation and the appropriate attitude.

As for Cultivators and factions without status, even if they felt the compensation was insufficient, they lacked the courage and qualification to demand exorbitant amounts.

So, in the end, after Wangyue Pavilion paid a certain price and the butler and experts went through much effort, the matter was finally settled.

This allowed Wangyue Pavilion's branches in the ten surrounding continents, with the East Continent as the center, to reopen.

The situation was similar in other places.

It took about a month. After Wangyue Pavilion paid a sufficient price and showed sincerity, all branches finally reopened one after another.

Almost two months had passed since Wangyue Pavilion closed its doors, and its reputation had plummeted during this time.

So, after reopening, business had plummeted compared to before, with a significant difference.

Even with numerous discounts at various branches, not many customers were attracted back.

However, it was already good that these branches could reopen; it was much better than remaining closed indefinitely.

In the future, Wangyue Pavilion would need a long period of patient management to restore their business to its Peak.

However, no one could be sure how long this would take, and perhaps they would never return to their former Peak…

The Wangyue Tower Master gazed into the distance, his brow slightly furrowed, his mind racing with thoughts.

"Of Wangyue Pavilion's three problems, the most important one has been resolved. Two problems remain."

The second problem, which was treating the six poisoned Quasi-Emperor Realm managers, could not be solved for now because an antidote could not be found.

The Wangyue Tower Master subconsciously thought of the first problem again, and a strong murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

If he hadn't controlled himself, with his strength, this murderous intent alone would have been enough to annihilate thousands of Saint King experts.

He was like this because Xu Chu, the culprit who caused Wangyue Pavilion immense losses and the demise of ten management experts, had not yet been found.

Xu Chu not only made the entire Wangyue Pavilion run in circles but also caused them heavy losses.

This kind of incident, for anyone or any force, would be an unbearable insult.

"If I don't kill this person, my anger will be hard to quell!!!"

So, after a moment of thought, the Wangyue Tower Master waved his hand and once again assigned nearly 30% of Wangyue Pavilion's experts to search for Xu Chu's whereabouts across the Tian Yuan World.

Presumably, no one in the entire Wangyue Pavilion would have imagined that Xu Chu, whom they hated to the bone, was in the same continent as Wangyue Pavilion's headquarters, buried deep underground, in a state of suspended animation.

Xu Chu understood from the beginning that his actions would at most only cause minor damage to Wangyue Pavilion.

But he felt that this was enough; after all, he possessed infinite lifespan.

Since he was idle anyway, it was quite good to occasionally pop out and trick the Xu Family's enemies like this.

If once wasn't enough, then ten times. If ten times wasn't enough, then a hundred times.

With enough attempts, one day he could wear them down to death or disgust them to death.
