Chapter 2909 - Delegating Authority

Chapter 2909: Delegating Authority When she heard the analysis from her subordinates, Xi Yu’s face darkened. She was fuming, basically tempted to pull these people out immediately and reduce them to ashes.
All of these resources were the Tian Yuan clan’s private property, as well as the foundation that supported the development and strengthening of the Tian Yuan clan.
After all, the Tian Yuan clan could now be considered as a large undertaking. They had numerous people to support, which took up a tremendous amount of resources daily. Once they began falling behind with the resources, the consequences would be quite severe.
Yet, not only were these protectors that the Tian Yuan clan had recruited from elsewhere discontent with the bountiful benefits the Tian Yuan clan provided, but they even dared to take it further and secretly seize the private property of the clan, causing great losses to the clan. As a matter of fact, they were even connected to the disappearances of a few supervisors in the past.
In Xi Yu’s eyes, this was already a heinous crime.
However, as soon as she considered how they were Infinite Primes, Xi Yu felt a deep sense of helplessness.
Although she had temporarily taken over the Tian Yuan clan after Jian Chen left, her cultivation was low after all. The Infinite Prime protectors who joined the Tian Yuan clan were submissive before Jian Chen, all too willing to listen to him, but they did not show as much respect towards her, the vice-leader.
Even with her identity as the princess of the Xi Empire, it did not bear as much weight as she imagined it would in the eyes of these Primordial realm experts of the southern region. After all, this was not the northern region.

It’s a pity that senior Xu Ran ignores secular affairs and just spends her time in secluded cultivation. Otherwise, if senior Xu Ran were to step forward, this would be much easier to deal with,
Xi Yu said inside. She discovered that she really was hopeless as a vice-leader.

Who knows when Jian Chen will return. If he were here, all of the troubles the clan faces right now could be dealt with effortlessly.
At this moment, Xi Yu could not help but miss Jian Chen.

You’re the vice-leader of the Tian Yuan clan after all, an existence who stands above millions. You control the fate of the entire clan. Have just a few protectors made you so helpless?

At this moment, a voice that Xi Yu had been thinking about rang out. Jian Chen’s figure appeared silently in the main hall of the Watercloud Hall.
No one noticed when he had appeared. Only when his voice rang out did Xi Yu and her subordinates discover his existence.
The Watercloud Hall was a medium quality god artifact, but the artifact spirit had already yielded to Jian Chen, so Jian Chen had always been able to move around through it as he pleased.

Greetings, leader!
The subordinates in the main hall recognised Jian Chen with a single glance. They immediately showed respect and bowed excitedly.
Xi Yu stared straight at Jian Chen. A slight smile gradually appeared on her face, and she said,
You’re finally back, but I’ve still ended up letting you down. I’ve failed to manage the clan properly in your place, making the clan lose large quantities of resources.


These resources aren’t too important. With the clan’s current level of wealth, even if we lose this bit of resources, it won’t cause a great deal. The most important reason is you still lack some resolve as the vice-leader of the Tian Yuan clan,
Jian Chen said to Xi Yu sternly,
Xi Yu, you must remember that the structure of power in our Tian Yuan clan is different from other organisations. So far, our clan has no ancestors or great elders. The leader is the one with the greatest authority. As the only vice-leader of the clan, you obviously have authority over all matters, whether large or small, when I’m not around.


As for the Primordial realm experts who have joined the Tian Yuan clan, not only do you have the right to accept or decline their pledge of loyalty, but you even have the right to interrogate or remove them from their post when these Primordial realm experts do things that damage the clan’s interest. If anyone resists, you can make the other Primordial realm experts in the clan take action and forcefully restrain them.


The clan spends vast amounts of resources on a year-to-year basis to support them, even providing many god artifacts, There are even God Tier cultivation methods and God Tier Battle Skills as follow-up benefits. These resources aren’t for supporting a group of little brats that only know how to enjoy themselves without working.


Although the strength of Primordial realm experts is not used regularly, they need to do all that they can when they are used. Once someone is disobedient or feigns compliance, then you have all the right to remove all of their remuneration or expel them from the Tian Yuan clan as the vice-leader, as the clan does not need people like that.


B- but they’re still Primordial realm experts…
Xi Yu said in a rather troubled manner, as even in the Xi Empire, all Infinite Primes were figures of extremely high status. They were figures on par to elders at the very least, or even great elders.
In some ancient empires, Infinite Primes were even key figures who stood as ancestors.
Although the Tian Yuan clan had once purged its Primordial realm experts in the past, that was with Jian Chen behind it all.
But right now, Jian Chen wanted her to deal with this alone, or even directly expel these revered Primordial realm experts. In Xi Yu’s belief, this was completely crazy. She did not have the confidence to do that at all.

Forget about whether they’re Infinite Primes. As long as they haven’t reached Chaotic Prime, they’re all up to your whim.
With a wave of his hand, Jian Chen delegated all of his authorities as the clan leader to Xi Yu.
Jian Chen was very open-minded with this. He also understood that after the situation on the Cloud Plane had been reset, the Tian Yuan clan had always been rapidly swelling up at a rate far greater than what they could deal with. The Godkings that joined the Tian Yuan clan, regardless of their origins, could be described as countless. Even Infinite Primes amounted to two or three dozen. The various divine crystal mines and medicinal gardens under their control was extremely plentiful, basically spanning the entire southern region.
They were rapidly inflating in size, but they lacked the corresponding people, reserves, and heritage. Combined with the various underdeveloped and incomplete aspects along the chain of benefits and their feeble governance force, it obviously led to many parasites.
After all, basically all the Primordial realm experts of the Tian Yuan clan were outsiders. Far, far too few of them truly belonged to the clan. Moreover, he spent most of his time away from the clan, so he lacked deterrence. Tempted by the benefits, there would obviously be people who would give in.
At this moment, Jian Chen waved his hand, and the Immortal Devouring Orchid immediately flew out from the depths of the Watercloud Hall, shrinking to a beautiful flower that stood three inches tall in Jian Chen’s hand. It was extremely close with Jian Chen.

The Immortal Devouring Orchid has now grown to the level of a Fifth Heavenly Layer Infinite Prime. Xi Yu, I’ll make the Immortal Devouring Orchid completely obey you for now. It will obey any orders you give it. I’ll leave this Watercloud Hall to you too. As a medium quality god artifact, as long as they’re inside the divine hall, it can control any Infinite Prime. From now onwards, the artifact spirit will obey you too.


I’ll leave both the Immortal Devouring Orchid and the Watercloud Hall to you. You’re more than welcome to deal with everything regarding the clan without worry.
In the end, Jian Chen gave Xi Yu a list of the various resources required for refining Godking pills and told her to send people to collect them.
Afterwards, Jian Chen met with nobody else. Instead, he arrived on the highest floor of the Watercloud Hall and ordered the artifact spirit to prevent anyone from disturbing him. Then, he carefully moved Sacredfeather out of the divine hall he carried on him to the Watercloud Hall
