Within minutes of the Ten Great Families" recruitment announcement, hundreds of players began commenting on it, and word spread like wildfire through the mouths of tens of thousands of individuals.

"Hey, did you see the latest post on Cultivation Online"s forum?"

"Not yet. What does it say?"

"You probably won"t believe it until you see it yourself, but the Ten Great Families have joined forces for a recruitment drive."

"The Ten Great Families are working together? Now that"s something you don"t hear every day. In fact, this might be a first. What kind of recruitment is it?"

"I"m not exactly sure. They mentioned something about "Exiles", but I have never heard of this term until today."

"Let me check it out real quick."

The recruitment post shared by the Ten Great Families on the forums was an attention-grabbing declaration:

[Approved and collaborated by— Xiong Family, Wilson Family, Chen Family, Li Family, Zheng Family, Huang Family, Harris Family, Gu Family, and Walkers Family.]

The recruitment notice, posted on the Xiong Family"s official account, carried the signatures of all the other families, confirming its undeniable legitimacy.

"Holy s.h.i.+t… These rewards are insane! Heaven-grade treasure! 15 million dollars! And arguably the most valuable reward— the Ten Great Families" recognition and support!"

The enticing rewards offered by the Ten Great Families triggered a flood of inquiries from Cultivation Online Players. However, a significant portion of these individuals had no understanding of what an Exile was, and as a result, they were swiftly disregarded.

There were some who tried to fake having an Exile, but they were also quickly rooted out with a few questions that only those with an Exile would know.

As the day drew to a close, Xiong Lu a.s.sessed the number of players who might possess an Exile and couldn"t help but smile with satisfaction.

"Twenty-six Players and it"s only the first day," Xiong Lu remarked with a sense of antic.i.p.ation for the days ahead.

Over the course of the next several days, hundreds of thousands of players reached out to the Ten Great Families. By the week"s end, a rigorous screening process had narrowed the field down to 81 players who had successfully pa.s.sed all initial inquiries and were now eagerly awaiting their in-person interviews.

"Eighty-one Players… Even if only half of them have an Exile, it"s still a lot…" Xiong Lu"s hands trembled in excitement as he saw the numbers.

"We can do it! We can take down Yuan! I cannot wait to see how useless you"ll become without your Exile, Yuan! Hahahaha!" Xiong Lu couldn"t hold his excitement and started laughing out loud.

Meanwhile, inside the Demon Sealing Faction"s headquarters, a meeting was in session, attended by all of its members except for Yuan.

"This is about the Ten Great Families" recent movements, correct?" w.a.n.g Ming asked as he looked at Meifeng, who called for the gathering.

"Indeed. I don"t know what this Exile business is about, but I do know that it"s related to Yuan," she acknowledged.

"I"ve never heard of it, either. What about you guys?" s.h.i.+ Lang asked everyone there.

Everyone besides Chu Liuxiang and Meixiu shook their heads.

"Allow me to explain." Meixiu raised her hand and said.

"In Cultivation Online, there are these people known as an "Exile". They are essentially criminals that had been banished from the Nine Heavens because of a crime they or their family had committed."

"Exiles possess something known as the Supreme Heaven"s Legacy. I"m not privy to the specifics, but it"s a means for them to regain their freedom. One of Yuan"s companions, Xiao Hua, happens to be an Exile."

So the Ten Great Families are gathering these Exiles... But for what purpose?" w.a.n.g Bingbing inquired.

Meifeng then revealed, "I had initially intended to wait for Yuan"s return to share this information, but it appears that the Ten Great Families are specifically targeting Yuan and his Exile."

"What?! These dirty b.a.s.t.a.r.ds are working together to target Yuan?! Unacceptable!" w.a.n.g Ming slammed the table in anger.

"Honestly, I"ve been antic.i.p.ating their move, and it took them longer than I expected," Hong Xiuquan remarked.

"However, I didn"t antic.i.p.ate them collaborating, given their historical rivalry," he added.

"That just goes to show how much of a threat Yuan poses to them, particularly in terms of their Legacy Ranking," Xi Murong shrugged.

"What should we do? We can"t simply stand by and allow the Ten Great Families to target Yuan," Chu Liuxiang inquired with a slight frown on her face.

"Do we truly need to take action? After all, this is Yuan we"re discussing," Li Jinxi stated, and went on, "He"s already attained a level that"s beyond our comprehension. I doubt even the Ten Great Families, if they ama.s.s their forces, could pose any real threat to him."

"That"s a valid point..." No one could dispute Li Jinxi"s a.s.sessment, and a contemplative silence filled the room.
