If the common people flocked to Mo Zhu Mountain and became its disciples, or dedicated their fields to the monks of Mo Zhu Mountain, who would the court tax anymore? Who would the powerful landowners rob then?
Thus, Mo Zhu Mountain, a faction managed by the Immortal Registry and a major tax entity of Li Country, fundamentally bore irreconcilable contradictions with the Li Country court represented by the Censorate.
So as long as Mo Zhu Mountain remained a loose cultivation sect, its disciples and their families were still not part of the 'tax-exempt' quota, yet they were also productive, wealthy, and equally capable of rebellion. They were the root of chaos in the world.
But now things were different, Mo Zhu Mountain had joined Xuanmen, the Xuanmen of Cloud Platform Peak! They had become masters of their fate!
To put it bluntly, the disciples of Mo Zhu Mountain could finally rightfully avoid paying taxes to Li Country!
