Chapter 1512 - 209 - 215

Chapter 209: Giant Shark Gang

Wherever the large bearded man went, the water splashed all around him. If one looked carefully, they could see a giant shark underneath the large bearded man. The shark was formed from water energy and was incredibly quick in the water.

The ten ships were destroyed and over a thousand men had fallen into the water. This was a lot of a casualties.

The large bearded man's dark face looked up at the blue robed scholarly middle aged man. His feet were standing on a little tornado, with his sleeves fluttering in the wind. Floating in the air, he looked like a majestic god, but what was most important was that he could not see through his strength.

Although he didn't know who this person was, he knew that he wasn't an ordinary person!

"Your excellency has rushed into the lake gods' territory and injured many of my disciples!" The large bearded man coldly said, "Do you plan on not giving my Great Shark Gang an explanation?"

"Explanation?" The Divine Wind Marquis gave a calm laugh and the wind became stronger around them. This heavenly might was terrifying, shocking everyone, "The Four States Lake is the land of the Southern Summer Country's king, yet you dare to create a gang here. This marquis is speechless. However, after pillaging year after year and even attacking the shore, did you think no one from the Southern Summer Country cared?"

"You…..You are one of the eight Southern Summer Marquises!"

"Being able to control the wind, you must be Central State's Divine Wind Marquis!"

The large bearded man was shocked. The Divine Wind Marquis was a grand character in the Southern Summer Country!

The large bearded man had no hesitation. The large shark quickly turned around, creating a large wave before it ran away!

"Fifth master!"

The Giant Shark Gang members were all shocked. The fifth master had unparalleled might, but he was running without even fighting?

"Since you're here, then have a cup of tea with this marquis!" The Divine Wind Marquis' figure flashed and he blocked off the large bearded man. His right hand formed a several foot long giant hand and grabbed at the large bearded man.

"I'll go all out with you!"

The large bearded man took out his trident and released the power of his source spirit. Without any time to attack, the Divine Wind Marquis' palm attacked the trident. The violent strength sent the large bearded man back several meters and a mouthful of purple blood came from his mouth.

The Divine Wind Marquis crossed his hands behind his back as if it was very easy, "7th Awakened Soul Layer, haven't you just reached the True Soul Realm?"

"You dare to look down on father!"

The large bearded man gave an angry roar and released the full might of his source spirit which was a giant silver shark. The large bearded man raised his hands and the silver shark dived into the lake, releasing its might into the water.

The water around them began to boil with excitement.

Several hundred sharks broke through the surface of the water, each one being three-four meters long, with bodies made of water energy. They were shooting forth like arrows, flying through the air like they had wings. Each one had a terrifying strength that could swallow an Awakened Soul Cultivator.

"I'll let you see the power the lake gods granted me!"

Countless violent sharks charged right at the Divine Wind Marquis. The Divine Wind Marquis was shocked, he never thought that the large bearded man would be this strong. Just this one move, an ordinary True Soul Realm expert would not be able to block it.

But he wanted to compete with one of the Southern Summer Eight Marquises? Then it was too lacking!

"Wind and Cloud Sword Song!"

Countless wind blades appeared around the Divine Wind Marquis, scattering around him like a storm. Each giant shark was getting hit with two-three attacks each, breaking to pieces and turning into drops of water.

"It's not over yet!" The large bearded man angrily roared, "Lake gods! Bestow upon me your power!"

Countless water drops were frozen in the air and it condensed into a giant shark in the air. Even though the giant shark was made of energy, it was just like a real living being. That thick silver skin was very tangible. It angrily charged right at the Divine Wind Marquis.

The Divine Wind Marquis snapped his finger.

A giant sword qi charged forth.

The giant shark charging forth with shocking momentum was split in half and the large bearded man was sent flying. It was like a ball of water carelessly thrown away, falling several feet away.

"So strong!"

"No wonder he's one of the Southern Summer's Eight Marquises!"

"My Giant Shark Gang will remember this, just wait for me!"

The large bearded man dove into the water, wanting to run away through the lake.

"How could it be that easy!"

The Divine Wind sent a small tornado into the lake, stirring the lake water and creating a giant vortex. Several feet of water flew into the air, holding the figure of the large bearded man.

The Divine Wind Marquis waved his hand and the large bearded man flew over, being grabbed by the neck by the Divine Wind Marquis.

"Let me go!"

The large bearded man was a True Soul expert, but in the hands of the Divine Wind Marquis, he was like a little chicken trying to struggle free.

The Divine Wind Marquis poked several points on the large bearded man's body and used his spirit energy to seal the large bearded man's cultivation. This person's cultivation was not weak, so he must be a head. It would be useful to capture him alive.

"The fifth master has been caught!"

"This is a bad matter, let's call the other masters!"

The pirates all cried out in alarm before sinking into the lake water, disappearing after a while.

The Divine Wind Marquis was not interested in these small fries. He floated in the air and landed on the boat, throwing the large bearded man onto the deck.

Everyone was deeply shocked.

Everyone knew that the Divine Wind Marquis' cultivation was very high and he was very strong, but they never thought it was this terrifying. This fight had expanded their horizons!

The large bearded man revealed a look of panic, "If you dare to hurt a single hair on me, the Giant Shark Gang will not let you off! Are the Southern Summer's Eight Marquises that great? If you alarm my big brother and second brother, you will walk away with a loss!"

The large bearded man was a True Soul expert.

But he had just entered the 7th Awakened Soul Layer.

Therefore it didn't have to be said that he couldn't compare to the Divine Wind Marquis, he couldn't even compare with Chen Bingyu. However from his words, could there be an even stronger person in the Giant Shark Gang?

Nangong Yun couldn't help ask, "Then how much stronger is your big brother and second brother?"

"Nonsense!" The large bearded man was suddenly filled with energy, "The Giant Shark Gang has over a hundred thousand men and I'm only the fifth ranked. My big brother, second brother, third brother, and fourth brother are all above me! You have entered the forbidden area of the lake gods and have injured the aides of the lake gods! Once the lake gods become angry, you can wait to die!"

One hundred thousand people!

There were at least five True Soul Realm experts!

Nangong Yun and the others were all stunned!

The Divine Wind Marquis knit his brows, feeling a bit unhappy!

This fellow was this arrogant after being captured? It seemed like they wouldn't get anything from him, it would be better to kill him with a single palm!

But then again! What if this fellow did not lie? What if the Giant Shark Gang really had a hundred thousand members and even five True Soul Realm experts? This was a giant power.

The Divine Wind Marquis was not afraid of them.

The problem was their mission, so they did not have time to waste. If they really fought with the Giant Shark Gang, then it might not be easy to escape from them.

Peng, peng!

Explosions came from below the warships!

Several soldiers gave startled cries, "This is bad marquis! The ship's bottoms have been destroyed! Our ships are quickly sinking!"

"What?"

These wars ships were the fastest ships in the Southern Summer Country. If they were broken through and the ships sunk, the consequences would be unimaginable! Not to mention how the over a thousand soldiers would escape, Central State would fail to adher to the ruler's orders which was a very serious matter!

"Marquis!"

"There are some strange beings in front of us!"

Everyone looked into the distance and they saw several large turtles slowly swimming over. There were over a hundred people on the turtles' backs, even having giant crossbows prepared.

A thin middle aged man raised his sword and shouted with an angry face, "Let go of fifth brother! Otherwise we'll turn you into fish food!"

The waters began to stir all around them.

"Release fifth master! Release fifth master!" Several thousand of the Giant Shark Gang members appeared, raising their weapons high in the air as they shouted out, "Let them feel the wrath of the lake gods!"

"Over, it's over!" Meng Yingying's face turned white, "There are so many pirates! We've kicked the hornet's nest this time!"

"Ha, ha, ha, ha!" The large bearded man began to laugh, "This is the consequence of offending the lake gods!"

Damn!

A cold killing intent flashed in the Divine Wind Marquis' eyes.

No one had ever dared to threaten him like this. Since it was like this, he would just kill them all!

"Please wait marquis!" Chu Tian walked in front of the Divine Wind Marquis, stopping him from killing the fifth master, "It's more pressing to take care of the pirates. Leave this person to me!"

The Divine Wind Marquis' cultivation was deep, so even if the masters of the Giant Shark Gang came, they might not be able to beat him. However, this was the territory of the Giant Shark Gang, so how could he fight them alone?

The Giant Shark Gang had over a hundred thousand people!

From the troops sent, this seemed highly likely to be true.

These fellows had water attributed attacks and water attributed demon beast, so they could attack the bottom of the ships. For these kinds of sneak attacks, no one had a way of stopping them.

The Divine Wind Marquis was not here to stop the pirates. If a pile of trouble appeared here and the pirates caused trouble for them on their journey, wouldn't that be a large mistake?

The Calm Martial Ruler's rage was not a small thing!

"Alright, I'll leave it to you!" The Divine Wind Marquis knew that Chu Tian had many tricks and it was more urgent to fight off the pirates, so he ignored the fifth master, "Chen Bingyu, give me a hand!"

Chen Bingyu was friends with the Divine Wind Marquis, so she did not reject him. She jumped onto the lake without saying anything.

In an instant!

A powerful cold might was released.

The lake's water began to freeze and the pirates attacking the ships bottom were all trapped in the ice. The Divine Wind Marquis also made his move, creating a large storm of wind blades in the air.

With these two experts working together, the pirates were easily taken care of.

Chu Tian walked in front of the large bearded man, "Now, let's have a chat."

"Brat, who do you think you are? Do you have the qualifications to talk to father?" The large bearded man angrily stared at Chu Tian, "If you have the skills, then kill father! My hundred thousand brothers will take revenge for me!"

"You think you can be arrogant as a captive!" Nangong Yun kicked out, "This fellow is asking to be hit, so let me beat him up. I haven't hit a True Soul Realm expert before!"

"Nangong, don't cause any trouble!" Chu Tian waved his hand at Nangong Yun, "Have you prepared the thing I ask you for?"

Nangong Yun placed a bucket of lake water in front of Chu Tian, "Weird, why did you ask me for some water?"

Chu Tian lifted up the fifth master and placed his head into the water!

"What are you doing?"

"Chu Tian said to the others, "Look for yourself!"

Meng Yingying was the first to look over and she couldn't help being surprised, "Aiya, this is incredible. There are gills growing behind his ears!"

Everyone who was in disbelief looked over and were all stunned by this strange scene. Behind the large bearded man's ears, there were gills that were breathing for him.

"How could there be gills on a human's body?"

"Monster! This fellow is not a human!"

The soldiers felt fear from the bottom of their hearts.

"Lake god, there really are lake gods!" The old guide the Divine Wind Marquis invited trembled with fear as he muttered, "These people are the lake gods' servants and that's why they have this kind of ability. We are in big trouble! The lake gods will definitely be angered!"

Chapter 210: Deep in the enemy's nest

When Chu Tian pulled the large bearded man out of the water, the gills on his neck slowly disappeared.

Everyone gave a shocked gasp.

How did they have this ability?

This was definitely not something a cultivation technique could cause!

"I felt that it was very strange. The pirates could hide underwater for so long and even dig through the bottom of our ships!" Nangong Yun's wide eyes stared at the large bearded man as she shouted, "Tell us now, are you all monsters? Tell us the truth right now!"

"Monsters? Ignorant fool!" The large bearded man gave a wild laugh and said with a proud face, "This is the innate skills that the lake god bestowed upon us, how could mortals understand it! On these waters, there is no one that dares to oppose the Giant Shark Gang. Even if the Southern Summer Country's King came, he would still have to pay the price for messing with our Giant Shark Gang!"

After saying this, he revealed a look of disdain. Do as you wish!

These pirates were like fish in water on the Four States Lake. Even if the Southern Summer Country sent troops, it would be impossible to catch them all. Once the Giant Shark Gang retaliated, the Four States Lake would be blocked off and would cause a huge loss for the Southern Summer Country!

"Granted by the lake gods?" Everyone felt a chill run down them. Only Chu Tian spoke in a taunting voice, "From what I can see, it isn't an innate skill, but rather a curse!"

Curse? The lake gods' curse!

The large bearded man's face turned red and he angrily shouted, "You dare insult our great lake gods!"

"Stop pretending! What lake gods? Nothing but fiction!" Chu Tian had seen through everything already, "All you did was open up a hidden ancient inheritance from the bottom of the lake. However, what you never expected was that you would have to pay a terrible price after opening this inheritance! Am I right?"

"Nonsense!" The large bearded man angrily shouted, "The Giant Shark Gang has been blessed by the lake gods. We currently have over a hundred thousand members and the Four States Lake covering several thousand miles are now all our territory!"

"That's right, you have gained the sea race's abilities and can freely move through water, so you should be able to freely move around the Four States Lake. However once you leave the lake, can you still act so freely like you do now?"

"You….."

Chu Tian did not give the large bearded man a chance to talk, directly cutting him off, "The Giant Shark Gang has over a hundred thousand members and several True Soul Realm experts, if they were placed anywhere in the Southern Summer Country, they would be considered a first class power. However, all these years, the Giant Shark Gang has remained to plunder in the Four States Lake, not taking a step onto the land to steal territory. With the strength you possess, can you tell me why this is?"

The fifth master spat out.

"Of course you wouldn't admit it. The members of the Giant Shark Gang cannot leave the Four States Lake, right?"

Meng Yingying was like a curious child as her face filled with curiosity, "Why can't they live on land!"

"Because the Giant Shark Gang have opened a treasure from the sea race, obtaining their inheritance. However, can humans accept the inheritance of the sea race? So, forcefully accepting this inheritance has caused a mutation, making them suffer the curse of the ruins. As long as the leave the Four States Lake for a while, they will dry up and die!"

"By relying on this treasure to increase their strength, their bodies have been changed, like gaining gills, scales, or webs on their hands and feet. They will turn from humans into members of the sea race, finally dying from the rejection!"

The large bearded man went from disdain to anger, before finally being completely stunned.

Why? This was the Giant Shark Gang's secret! How did this brat know about it?

This was a very strange matter that seemed completely unbelievable, but from the large bearded man's expression, was it actually true?

Did such a strange ruin really exist?

Of course it did!

Chu Tian had seen it more than once in the ancient books before, of course he understood the power and situation of the Giant Shark Gang. Chu Tian found it very strange. With the Giant Shark Gang's strong power, why did the Divine Wind Marquis not know about them?

Were they indifferent to fame and fortune, surpassing human greed?

Then why would they be pirates? Killing and pillaging, hurting themselves!

With their strength, wouldn't it be better for them to do anything else!

As well as Chu Tian seeing the Divine Wind Marquis attack the Giant Shark Gang in the water, they were freely swimming around, dodging everything. Then adding in the purple blood, Chu Tian was certain that a mutation had occurred!

This era was not lacking in ruins, with ancient ruins scattered all around.

Chu Tian had already guessed everything, but he still experimented with the large bearded man just to prove his own guess. When he saw the gills appear on the large bearded man which was a characteristic common to the sea race, Chu Tian was certain of his guess.

"What kind of person are you!"

"It doesn't matter what I am." Chu Tian said to the large bearded man, "The most important thing is I can help you solve your curse!"

"Impossible!" The large bearded man's body trembled and his face filled with disbelief. Then he screamed with a face of rage, "Twenty years! No one can escape! You should give up trying to trick me!"

"Large beardy, you are really lucky!" Meng Yingying came over, "Chu Tian is the founder of Miracle Commerce. If he says he can do it, then he can do it!"

Miracle Commerce's Chu Tian?

Miracle Commerce has not began to ship their commodity, so there were many merchants that had marked onto Miracle Commerce. They bought large amounts of goods from Miracle Commerce to ship to other countries and sell them for a high price. There were a few ships that were stopped by the Giant Shark Gang, even one personally stopped by the large bearded man, so they had a bit of understanding towards Miracle Commerce.

This was clearly a brat that didn't even have a single chest hair yet, he was actually the founder of Miracle Commerce?

However, what did it matter if he was the founder of Miracle Commerce?

The Giant Shark Gang had benefited from the inheritance, but they had also been restricted by it. The inheritance made them stronger, but it also robbed them of their freedom. With gains, there are losses, this is something that cannot be changed.

"You don't believe me?"

Chu Tian took a small red bottle from the gourd's storage space.

"Nangong, have him drink that."

Nangong Yun pried open the large bearded man's mouth and forced the red liquid down the large bearded man's throat.

The large bearded man suddenly bent over, twisting in pain on the ground. His body released many pale blood red things.

"Hot! Hot! So hot!"

"Damn, what did you make me drink!"

The large bearded man could feel a strange warmth slowly begin to fill his cold blood. A kind of power that used to be in his blood began to slowly disappear.

This…..

How was this possible?

Chu Tian ordered, "Cut his hand and we'll see what effect it had."

Nangong Yun took out a dagger and slashed the large bearded man's palm. Blood fell to the deck, but the colour of the blood was not a strange purple colour and the colour of a normal person's blood.

The large bearded man stared at his slowly dripping blood for a long time.

The Giant Shark Gang had been established for twenty years, not a single person had escaped this curse!

This young man took out a bottle of strange medicine.

He had actually eliminated most of the power of the curse!

"You'll still keep your underwater abilities." Chu Tian felt a little pain. That was a bottle of diluted spiritual god blood that even he had not used yet. "The medicine has eliminated most of the limits. From now on, you are free!"

The large bearded man was completely stunned as he was fully convinced!

If this person could lift the limits of the Giant Shark Gang, freeing the over a hundred thousand members, then he would be their great benefactor!

The large bearded man fell to the deck, "Mister, please save us!"

Chu Tian calmly said, "Let your people leave!"

"Yes! Yes!"

The large bearded man took out a horn and forcefully blew into it. Several hundred people appeared around them, coming out of the water. They all had gills behind their ears.

"Fifth master!"

"Don't worry fifth master!"

"We will save you!"

"All of you scram!" The large bearded man suddenly gave a loud anxious and angry shout. The Giant Shark Gang had been trapped for twenty years and had finally met a saviour. If they didn't grasp this chance, would it come again? "Inform the boss that we have an honoured guest!"

The Giant Shark Gang members were stunned.

Honoured guest?

The Giant Shark Gang never allowed anyone in their waters, it was a great affront to the lake gods. However, the fifth master's actions today was very strange.

The large bearded man angrily shouted, "Are you all deaf? Why aren't you leaving!"

"Yes!"

"We obey your orders!"

The members of the Giant Shark Gang disappeared into the water and retreated.

The Divine Wind Marquis and Chen Bingyu were surprised, but they treated as it them scaring off the middle aged man. When they returned to the deck, they saw the large bearded man respectfully standing in front of Chu Tian, saying with a serious look, "I ask this mister to help the Giant Shark Gang to cure their problems!"

In just a few minutes, this fellow had already changed his personality?

"I can indeed help you solve the problem with the sea race's blood inheritance." Chu Tian paused before saying, "However, this costs me quite a large price. Tell me, why should I help you guys?"

"That's right!" Meng Yingying said from the side, "These people kill and pillage, so they must be bad! We have no reason to help villains! Otherwise, if they return to normal, it will cause disasters for many people!"

The Divine Marquis coldly said, "The Giant Shark Gang has committed many crimes throughout the years. After the Thunder State matter, this marquis will personally cleanse the Four States Lake. How could we still allow them to act this wild?"

The large bearded man quickly said, "We had no other choice!"

"No need to be anxious marquis." Chu Tian could confirm the Giant Shark Gang's inheritance, so he could understand their situation. He said to the large bearded man, "How about this? I will personally go to your nest and have a chat. What do you think about that?"

"Of course you can!"

"Brother Chu!" Feng Caidie came forth, "This group of pirates are fierce, so you'll be in danger!"

The Divine Wind Marquis also did not want Chu Tian to be in danger.

"It'll be fine just having Chen Bingyu protecting me. You can stay outside and monitor the situation." Chu Tian confidently said, "Relax, I can take care of this matter!"

There were many members of the Giant Shark Gang. If he didn't have a method of dealing them, then it would not be easy to go past them. When the Divine Wind Marquis saw that Chu Tian was this confident and calm, he did not try to stop him.

With the Divine Wind Marquis as personal deterrence, what could they do?

Chu Tian brought Chen Bingyu alone and with Old Fifth Yu, they took a small boat to the Giant Shark Gang's headquarters.

Chapter 211: Boss Yu

There was a large archipelago in the center of the Four States Lake.

The archipelago itself was not very big. It was like a torn piece of paper thrown into the water, covering an area of over one hundred miles.

The largest island there was as big as Central State City. Because it looked like a skeleton, it was named Skeleton Island.

Skeleton Island was the headquarters of the Giant Shark Gang!

Chu Tian, Chen Bingyu, and Old Fifth Yu were sitting in a small boat, passing by the archipelago.

Every island had a trace of human civilization. For example, crude buildings, or fish nets filled with seafood drying.

Although the Giant Shark Gang was strong, they did not have a source of income. With their large numbers on top of that, their lives were very hard. It was a good thing the Four States Lake was rich in sea life, otherwise the hundred thousand people might have died. With only seafood to live on, it was impossible for them not to rob merchants for extra money, but they were still very poor.

The little boat arrived at Skeleton Island.

Old Fifth Yu jumped into the water. Because the Giant Shark Gang did not need a pier, he personally pulled the water to shore, "Two guests, please follow me!"

Chu Tian walked in front with Chen Bingyu following her. They saw a large group of white stone stacked into a giant gate and behind the gate was a paved stone path, leading up a mountain in the middle of the island. There was a small open plaza there with several serious lake god statues standing there.

For many years now, the Giant Shark Gang had not let anyone in.

There were no strangers who were allowed on the archipelago, not to mention the core Skeleton Island. So when Chu Tian came, it immediately attracted the attention of many people and they came over with their weapons.

"The fifth master is back!"

"I already said, how could the fifth master be captured?"

"Fifth master, are these two people sacrifices for the lake gods?"

The Giant Shark Gang members were all dressed strangely. Their clothes, vests, and boots all seemed to be made of sharkskin. Their clothing was very tattered, making them look like shipwrecked sailors.

Chen Bingyu was a little confused. Although they had this kind of strength, they lived like beggars. This was rarely seen in the Southern Summer Country!

Among the members were old people, women, and even children.

The Giant Shark Gang was created around twenty years ago, it was impossible for them to have all these members from the beginning. They should have been added on later.

How did they join?

There was no need to guess!

The Giant Shark Gang attacked ships and villages, capturing people along with their goods. The reason why the Giant Shark Gang liked to kidnap people was that it was a way of stopping them from bringing trouble, and it would also allow them to expand the Giant Shark Gang.

These captives were given the power of the inheritance, gaining the innate talents and bloodline of the sea race. At the same time, they were cursed to never be able to leave the Four State Lakes again.

They finally had no choice but to join the Giant Shark Gang.

Escape? It was impossible! Once a Giant Shark Gang member escaped to land, they would dry up within one-two days before dying.

"Scram!"

"Everyone scram!"

Old Fifth Yu disperse most of the crowd gathering around. Bringing Chu Tian halfway up the mountain, he led the way into a moist, deep cave. This deep cave was where the high level experts of the Giant Shark Gang lived and only branch lords or above could enter.

"Old fifth! How did you come back!" A skinny middle aged man wielding two blades was meditating inside. When he saw Old Fifth Yu walk in, he immediately revealed a look of pleasant surprise, "Did those damn Central State people let you off? Did they do anything to you!"

Old Fifth Yu cupped his hands, "Thanks for fourth brother's concerns. I'm fine….."

"Old fifth!" Old Fifth Yu did not even finish before a hoarse and severe voice came from the deep dark cave, "Why did you bring outsiders here? Did you forget the rules?"

Chu Tian looked into the abyss.

There was a natural pool in the center of the cave. Waves suddenly appeared and a stooped figure slowly appeared from the water. He was covered in water and droplets continued to fall to the floor. A terrifying and cold aura slowly filled the cave, making everyone feel a chill.

"Big brother! Please listen to my explanation!" Old Fifth Yu respectfully cupped his hands, "This Central State Person can cure the curse that has plagued us for many years!"

"How bold! Old fifth! You dare slander the lake gods!" A gray haired, tall, and large man walked out. His face was filled with rage as he roared, "Do you even know what you're doing!"

Old Fifth Yu anxiously said, "Second brother, I didn't….."

"Lake gods? Ha, ha, ha, ha!" Chu Tian did not want to listen to them and immediately broke out in laughter. A clear voice rang out through the deep cave, "To rule this archipelago and over a hundred thousand people, you invented the lake gods for people to worship, right? The funniest thing is that the creator of the lie is actually forcing themselves to believe it!"

Where were there lake gods?

The Giant Shark Gang was a special school at best!

For the Giant Shark Gang to better rule their school, they created the mysterious lake gods. They wanted to rule over people's faith, firmly ruling over the general members, making them devote themselves to the lake gods and in term them.

Otherwise.

It was hard to explain this very strange strict restriction placed on them.

The large gray haired man angrily said, "Insulting the lake gods! Seeking death! Sacrifice him to the lake gods!"

"Tarnishing the lake gods' name, death!"

"Kill him!"

The Giant Shark Gang high level members were all filled with rage as they released a terrifying killing intent.

Chen Bingyu's brows tightly knit together. This cave was too dark and there was close to no light here, so it was hard to see everything. However, from the aura and killing intent released, it seemed like there were quite a few experts in the Giant Shark Gang. Or at least more than she imagined.

Chu Tian's expression did not say as he said, "If my guess isn't wrong, you've picked up a sea race treasure that should be an ancient sea race altar that strengthens bloodlines. The ritual requires a sacrifice ceremony that stimulates the hidden potential in one's blood. This was something that only the sea race possesses, but you foolishly took it and used it to increase your own strength."

"However, what you didn't know is that human bodies cannot withstand the sea race's sacrifice rituals. If you forcefully use the ritual, there will be a mutation and you will slowly change into a member of the sea race. The fish gills are merely initial changes. Once the mutations start, you will not have a way of stopping it. You will not be able to leave water or stop offering sacrifices, otherwise in a day, your bodies will dry up and you will die!"

"Of course, you can continue offering sacrifices, maintaining the active state of the sea race blood inside of you, making your blood closer to the sea race's! Your bodies will have more and more of the sea race's characteristics. You will become a monster that isn't human or fish. When your human blood is not enough to suppress the foreign blood, you will die of blood rejection!"

"Whether it is giving up the sacrifices or continuing the sacrifices, it is a dead end. Am I right!"

These forceful words reverberated through the cave, stunning all the angry Giant Shark Gang members into silence!

"Ke, ke, ke!" That white haired old man in the pool slowly stood up. In a cold and hoarse voice, he said, "Which saint is this sir?"

"I don't dare, this one is Chu Tian..."

The white haired old man was very tall, but he was stooped over right now. There was an old fish mask on his face and a fish bone cane in his hand.

Chu Tian did not even finish speaking!

The white haired man gently snapped his finger and a drop of water flew right at Chu Tian.

So fast!

Chu Tian did not have time to dodge. When the water drop was in front of him, it suddenly expanded, forming a giant water net. It wrapped around Chu Tian and it suspended him in the air.

This water net seemed weak, but it was actually very strong.

With Chu Tian's current cultivation, he could not break out.

The white haired old man had a pair of strange purple eyeballs that were releasing killing intent, "Do you think with the Divine Wind Marquis backing you, you can just walk into my Giant Shark Gang? Even if the Divine Wind Marquis came in, this old man would still fight with him, not to mention a little brat like you!"

Chen Bingyu's eyes revealed a sharp gaze.

A cold qi came from her palm, attacking the white haired old man with her palm.

The white haired old man released another water drop that shot at Chen Bingyu. She knitted her brows and released a white light, instantly freezing the water drop.

"Humph!"

The white haired old man gave a cold snort.

The ice bead shattered and a strong power filled every corner of the cave, making everyone here stumble.

The expressions of the Giant Shark Gang high level members changed.

This girl's cultivation was very high. Even if it was a bit inferior to the boss', it was not inferior to the second master's.

Chen Bingyu was forced back several steps and her expression sunk a bit…..This old monster was stronger than she imagined, even she might not be his match.

The white haired old man was surprised.

This woman's age was not high and her cultivation was only a bit weaker than his. Adding in the fact that the Divine Wind Marquis was here, this person visiting the Giant Shark Gang was not a simple person!

Old Fifth Yu was afraid something bad would happen, "Big brother, stop! You can't kill him!"

Chu Tian was still trapped in the water net. Although he couldn't move, he wasn't afraid at all because the old man did not have any killing intent.

"Giant Shark Gang's Boss Yu is really powerful, even being a step higher than Chen Bingyu." Chu Tian said in a casual manner. Without the consciousness of a captive at all, he said, "However, you are the one with the deepest sea race inheritance. If I'm not wrong, your body should have changed. You hands and feet should have webs, your body should have scales, and your skeleton structure should have changed."

The Giant Shark Gang members were shocked.

The boss never took off his mask and always tightly covered up, could his body really have undergone a mutation?

The white haired old man was silent.

"I'm certain that you won't live past half a year!" Chu Tian shouted, "It's fine if you die by yourself, but will you risk the lives of the Giant Shark Gang members and your brothers who have gone through life and death with you?! Or do you want to see your brothers that have gone through life and death with you turn into monsters?!"

The white haired old man's body trembled.

"Big brother!" Old Fifth Yu quickly came forward, "Mister Chu Tian can really help us. The power of the curse on my body has already been dispelled. If you don't believe me, have a look!"

The white haired old man gripped Old Fifth Yu's wrist.

The pair of purple eyes became more serious before it was filled with shock. Finally it revealed a look full of disbelief and wild happiness.

It was really…..dispelled?

Chapter 212: Father has money

Boss Yu could not help but tremble slightly.

This was simply unbelievable. It seemed like a dream.

Boss Yu was the one who benefited most from the treasure. He was once an ordinary Awakened Soul expert without many resources, but now he was at the 9th Awakened Soul Layer. If they were fighting in the water, even if it were a super expert of the Southern Summer eight marquis level, Boss Yu still had the confidence to fight them.

Boss Yu was also the one suffering the most from the treasure. Because his curse was the deepest, Boss Yu's transformation was the highest. He had already not set foot on land for a whole five years. Even if he soaked in a pool all day on Skeleton Island, his body dried up very quickly, putting his life in danger in just ten hours.

The most terrifying thing was that as Boss Yu's body changed, his temperament and nature changed as well. He became something that wasn't a human or a monster. There was also a cruel pain that required him to use large amounts of anaesthesia to stop. If his transformation became faster, it would be a risk to his life.

Boss Yu did not have any hopes.

However, no one expected a miracle to appear in front of them.

Boss Yu was shaking Old Fifth's hand, "You…..You really cured it!"

Old Fifth Yu also let out tears as he forcefully nodded, "This mister really has a method!"

The water net broke and Chu Tian regained his freedom, falling to the ground. Chen Bingyu went forward to hold him up, but Chu Tian waved his hand, indicating everything was fine.

The white haired old man's purple eyes stared right at him, "Can you really help us?"

Chu Tian revealed a faint smile of confidence, "After a final analysis, this is a special kind of curse. I have a method of to solve every kind of curse, even one embedded in one's bones! Although I don't dare say that anyone else on the continent has the same method, I can say that I am the only one in all of the Southern Summer Country!"

The five Yu Brothers revealed looks of disbelief.

The white haired old man quickly stood up and shouted in his hoarse voice, "Mister benefactor! Please save our Giant Shark Gang!"

"There are no free meals in this world. Just like how you wanted the sea race's power but suffered the backlash of the sea race." Chu Tian's eyes turned sharp as he swept over the high level members of the Giant Shark Gang. In an emotionless voice, he said, "I can indeed break the blood curse restraining you, but it would cost me a high price to do so. We do not have any relations, so I have no reason to help you."

The meaning of this was: You want me to save you? I can! First, show some sincerity!

The white haired old man was silent for a few seconds before saying in a hoarse voice, "The Giant Shark Gang is poor and has no money."

"The hundred thousand members of the Giant Shark Gang is its value!" Chu Tian directly said, "You want me to save you? I can do that! However, I want the Giant Shark Gang to work for me!"

With this one statement!

Everyone revealed a look of anger!

Trying to be this greedy, aren't you afraid of choking?

The Giant Shark Gang had been developing for twenty years, finally reaching over one hundred thousand members. There were five True Soul experts, and several Illustrious Soul experts, with some even being at the peak of the Illustrious Soul Realm!

This brat wanted to swallow this kind of strong power?

He was dreaming!

Even if he had the skills to do so, the Giant Shark Gang would not agree.

The Giant Shark Gang was a faction that could be considered a school with a special lineage. They had their basic pride!

"Even if you really break our restraints, we would just fall under another restraint. Doesn't your excellency think your demand is a little excessive?" The white haired old man said in a low voice, "The Giant Shark Gang has its pride, we will not bow down to anyone!"

"That's right!"

"You brat and your wild ambitions, you're clearly trying to swallow our Giant Shark Gang!"

"Even if our Giant Shark Gang cannot freely move on land, we still have the Four States Lake to run around in. Why would we bow down to a brat who hasn't grown a single chest hair yet!"

In the end, Chu Tian was too young!

The Giant Shark Gang had many experts, how could they submit so easily?

The Giant Shark Gang's protests were not strange at all. Gangs would have their own seniority and now this young brat was coming over and asking their great gang to submit to him. Wasn't this a giant dream?

"Don't be in a hurry to reject!" Chu Tian revealed a confident smile, "First, listen to what I have to say."

Boss Yu said in a hoarse voice, "No matter what condition you add, the Giant Shark Gang will not degrade itself to become a tool!"

"To work for me, you don't have to give me your loyalty." Chu Tian emphasized, "We will have a cooperation and not a subordinate relation. Like this, do you understand?"

Chu Tian was very aware of this matter.

Miracle Commerce did not have the strength to swallow the Giant Shark Gang.

The gray haired Old Second Yu asked, "Don't mix words, is there a difference?"

"It's a big mistake if you think of it like this!" Chu Tian sharply said to Old Second Yu, "Cooperation is a parallel relation, so there are no up and downs. The Giant Shark Gang will work for Miracle Commerce and the Giant Shark Gang will be paid. It's just like this, how could there be anything different!"

Old Third Yu asked, "Then what can your Miracle Commerce give us?"

Chu Tian looked right at Old Third Yu, "What do you think you lack the most? Money! Reputation!"

The Giant Shark Gang members looked at each other in blank dismay. The Giant Shark Gang was indeed poor and they had a pirate image that was hard to cleanse!

"Miracle Commerce will directly invest one hundred million gold coins in the Giant Shark Gang!"

Beginning with one hundred thousand. This kind of rich manner completely shocked everyone!

Old Fourth Yu said in a somewhat dissatisfied voice, "The Giant Shark Gang has over a hundred thousand people, how is one hundred million enough!"

"That's also right!" Chu Tian revealed a faint smile, "Then let it be two hundred million!"

Everyone was silent. This brat had too much money!

"Still not enough? Then four hundred million!"

Everyone took in a shocked gasp. Without even blinking, this brat doubled it twice!

"With the Giant Shark Gang's situation, four hundred million will take care of your urgent matters." Chu Tian then said, "However, as long as we cooperate properly, I will represent Miracle Commerce in saying that we will invest one billion gold coins into the Giant Shark Gang in half a year!"

What?

Investing one billion!

Even for the Central State Four Great Families, this would be equivalent to several years of income!

The Giant Shark Gang was smacked silly with this golden stick. Even Boss Yu was deeply shocked, "Are you serious?"

"Father has money!" Chu Tian confidently said, "I will do whatever I say! We can have the Divine Wind Marquis notarize this right now. If Miracle Commerce does not have enough money in half a year, the contract will break and the Giant Shark Gang will regain their freedom, as well as keeping everything paid beforehand as a breach of contract fee!"

They were just a group of robbers!

Their main source of income was from robbing merchant ships and small towns. How much income could they have in total?

The resources that they harvested, not only did that have to use them for sacrifices, they also had to use them for their own needs. They were really tight on money!

This was one billion gold coins!

This was enough to completely make the Giant Shark Gang dizzy!

If Miracle Commerce kept their word, 95% of the members would not have any problems!

"Not only will Miracle Commerce take out one billion as an investment, we will also help the Giant Shark Gang with their reformations and pave a new path to the future for you. Of course, we will need 50% of the Giant Shark Gang's stocks, but it is for enjoying the dividends. We will not interfere with your management and you will have complete independence!"

Good brat, treating the Giant Shark Gang as an investment target.

Was the Giant Shark Gang really worth that much?

Was he not afraid of wasting this kind of giant investment?

"Finally, if you are willing to take up an office in Miracle Commerce, we will also give you a yearly salary." Chu Tian paused before saying, "I can guarantee that a True Soul Realms cultivator's salary will not be below fifty million per year!"

The Giant Shark Gang was once again slapped silly!

Chu Tian's words were stressing a single meaning. Father had money, father had a shocking amount of money. You will live a good life if you follow father!

From the expressions on these bumpkins' faces.

Chu Tian could tell that he had already fooled them.

Miracle Commerce's finances were actually a little tight, unable to take out one billion gold coins. However, with Miracle Commerce's explosive expansion, even if they had to bet it all to buy this power, it would be an investment of great significance!

The Giant Shark Gang was very strong.

This was a very strong force.

Just based on how much the Giant Shark Gang would increase Miracle Commerce's might, the benefit could not be measured with just one billion gold coins!

What was most important was that the Giant Shark Gang had the advantage in water. The Four States Lake reached four counties and went through various states through lakes, arriving in many different cities.

Once Miracle Commerce grasped the Four States Lake, they would have a large distribution network. Meng Qingwu had planned to spend money on a large fleet, but now it seemed better to directly invest that money in the Giant Shark Gang instead.

This was also a large opportunity for the Giant Shark Gang!

First, Chu Tian could cure their curse, which was the largest attraction for the Giant Shark Gang.

Next, with one billion gold coins, the Giant Shark Gang could escape poverty. Moreover, a person who could easily take out one billion gold coins and was related to the Divine Wind Marquis was just the power the Giant Shark Gang needed to expand themselves!

The brothers' days were too bitter.

Perhaps…..They truly needed the improvement.

"My words end here." Chu Tian naturally turned around and then walked outside with Chen Bingyu following him, "I will give you guys some time to consider this offer. I'll be back in a few days, I hope that I can receive a positive response."

Chu Tian left!

He swaggered out of the cave!

No one from the Giant Shark Gang stopped him because everyone was deep in thought.

When they watched this brat's leaving figure, they were silent for a long time. Even though this man was young…..he was still immeasurably deep!

"Big brother, we have already attracted the attention of the Divine Wind Marquis!" Old Fifth Yu said with a serious expression, "If you don't take this chance, the Divine Wind Marquis will not let us off!"

The Divine Wind Marquis was just passing by, not launching a raid against the Giant Shark Gang. However, they had offended the Divine Wind Marquis and he would not allow their force to expand across the Four States Lake.

The Giant Shark Gang had no hope of fighting against the Southern Summer Eight Marquises.

Not to mention Boss Yu's cultivation being below the Divine Wind Marquis', so what if he defeated the Divine Wind Marquis? The Divine Wind Marquis was only one of the Southern Summer Eight Marquises. If he cooperated with the four states, creating an army to suppress the pirates, there would be at least four marquis present. Could the Giant Shark Gang escape this?

If they alarmed the Three Rulers, that would be a disaster.

Boss Yu ordered, "Old fifth will follow them and see what they're up to. Old fourth will bring people to Central State and investigate Miracle Commerce, seeing if they're a power worth cooperating with."

This matter was very important, so it was best to be careful!

Chapter 213: Thunder State

The five war ships had just been patched up.

"Chu Tian is back!" Meng Yingying was very excited as she noticed that Chu Tian was back. She immediately waved with her small hands, "Chu Tian, did you really go to the pirate's nest? What is that place like? Is it fun!"

Everyone was speechless. This Meng Yingying was a person who knew no fear.

Chu Tian entering the nest of the Giant Shark Gang was a very dangerous matter.

Nangong Yun quickly asked, "What about your discussions?"

"I'm 90% confident." Chu Tian revealed a mysterious smile and said to Yingying, "Just wait and see. Your canned food will be sold to half the Southern Summer Country, perhaps the entire country."

The Divine Wind Marquis' eyes flashed.

He knew what this meant!

This kid had only gone in for a while and had already came to a conclusion with the vicious pirates? If it really were like this, it was a good thing! Otherwise, the Divine Wind Marquis would not have tolerated them and would have definitely taken care of them.

"There is an urgent task, so it's not convenient to slow down." Chu Tian said to the Divine Wind Marquis, "The pirates won't bother us anymore, let's hurry to Thunder State."

The Divine Wind Marquis nodded, "Let's head out immediately!"

The five war ships began to move at once, flying over the calm waters, navigating across the vast lake.

Other than the Giant Shark Gang, they only ran into small troubles. There were a few attacks from water demon beasts, but they did not run into anything big.

On the dusk of the next day, the ships reached the Thunder State docks.

The reason why Thunder State was named Thunder State was because of its special environment. Thunder and rain frequently fell, and even meteorites sometimes dropped. Chu Tian guessed that the space above Thunder State was not stable and this was probably one of the reasons why the plane crack appeared.

"Everyone, disembark!"

The warship's decks opened and the cavalry rode their horses onto land.

The strongest cavalry in Central State were all in the Body Refinement Realm. They rode level one top class demon beasts, the "Azure Storm Colts". They each had a horn on their heads and an azure qilin's body. Not only did they have explosive endurance, they could also use wind blades to attack enemies.

This was the standard cavalry mount for the Southern Summer Country. It could accelerate itself with the wind, reaching a speed of three hundred kilometers per hour with ease and a speed of four hundred kilometers per hour if it went all out.

At this high speed, a normal person would find it hard to breathe, let alone brandish a weapon to fight. So the recruitment standards of the Storm Cavalry were very strict. One had to be at least at the 7th Awakened Soul Layer and train a suitable spear martial art. Even if they were a thousand miles away, they could quickly charge into battle.

They were truly worthy of being known as a high mobility blade.

When the one thousand mounts came ashore, they lined up and charged out as fast as lightning.

Meng Yingying was also given a Storm Colt. She was high spirited as she sat on the horse's back, pointing at a towering city with the horse whip. She excitedly called out, "Chu Tian, Chu Tian, I can see Thunder State's main city!"

The Thunder State Main City was like the Central State Main City. It was constructed on the bank of the Four States Lake, making it easily accessible by boat.

Thunder State Main City was currently filled with a serious atmosphere. The city gates were tightly closed and full of soldiers. There were also many bumps on the ground in front of it, signifying a very fierce battle.

The pastures were already destroyed. The farmland, medicine fields, and fruit trees were all polluted by something, turning the crops yellow. It seemed like very serious damage was dealt.

The Central State people were shocked!

Even the Main City was affected by this?

The seriousness of this disaster was greater than they had expected!

When they arrived at Thunder State City, they saw holes in the ground everywhere and even dents in the wall. There were some soldiers wearing Southern Summer Country armour carrying corpses, piling them in a large hole outside the walls.

There were a total of six holes!

Each hole held around three or four thousand corpses, forming small but tall mountains.

Everyone was completely shocked. When had they ever seen such a terrifying image? Especially for pure people like Feng Caidie and Meng Yingying!

This was truly terrifying!

They had never seen people's bodies be thrown away like trash before. Seeing this pile of corpses piled together, it seemed like a demonic picture being painted in front of them. With the sulfur smell in the air and the strong burning smell, their stomachs turned and they almost vomited on the spot.

Meng Yingying was completely shocked, "These…..These are the people who were injured?"

"It should be!"

Chu Tian looked at the corpses. He saw that each one was withered with hollowed eyes. They were burnt black like they had been affected by a kind of cultivation technique. The little fox excitedly stared at the corpse and forcefully sucked in, as if it could feel the dark attributed energy that it loved.

"When the Abyss Demon crossed through the plane crack, it should have brought a large amount of abyss aura with it. This abyss power should be polluting the people of the city, letting the Abyss Demon control them, turning them into demon soldiers controlled by the demon!"

Feng Caidie couldn't hold it back, "Now that many people have been demonized in Thunder State, Chu Tian…..can you think of a way to save them? They are all innocent people who were turned this way by the disaster, it would be too cruel to kill them!"

"That's right!" Meng Yingying quickly said to Chu Tian, "You're so resourceful, you should be able to think of a method to help them!"

"You should understand that it is impossible to reverse a life form after it has been demonized. Even if there is a solution, we cannot accomplish it with the resources we currently have." Chu Tian laughed bitterly, "Every demonized life form has their body changed, their spirit smashed apart, and their souls deeply polluted. In a sense, they have become demons…..For demonized life forms, it would be best to immediately exterminate them to help relieve them of their endless suffering."

The Thunder State soldiers had already filled the holes with oil and they set fire to the thousands of corpses.

Meng Yingying and Feng Caidie silently watched the six fires burn for a while.

They could not believe this cruel scene in front of them.

"Don't feel sad." Chu Tian patted Yingying's shoulder, "Didn't we come to Thunder State to help them?"

Meng Yingying nodded.

She realized once again that strength was important!

"Divine Wind Marquis, you're too slow!"

At this moment, the city gates opened and two middle aged men walked out. Their auras were very strong, not being inferior to the Divine Wind Marquis'. These two should also be Southern Summer Marquises.

One person was wearing golden armour and had black and rough skin, making him look like a general. He had a decisive temperament and a dragon shaped long bow on his back. His aura being released was as sharp as arrows.

Feng Caidie whispered, "This person should be the Golden Arrow Marquis!"

The other person was a middle aged person with graying hair. He seemed to be around fifty years old with a square face and a tall nose, making him look extraordinary. He was wearing a dark gold robe made of an unknown material and holding a black spear in his right hand. This should be the Western Marquis.

The Golden Arrow Marquis said, "Brother Feng, brother Shangguan, this Jiang thanks you for helping Thunder State. Please come this way!"

"What, the Western Marquis is surnamed Shangguan?"

"What bad luck!"

Chu Tian's face sank and the others all felt helpless. They just hoped that the Western Marquis did not know about what happened in Central State!

Thunder State City should have been as lively as Central State City, but with this disaster, Thunder State City firmly closed its gates. The stores were closed and there were barely any people on the street. The streets only had soldiers patrolling.

The cavalry was stationed in the suburbs.

Meng Yingying led the mercenaries to bring in the canned food donated to the army.

The others all went to the Golden Arrow Marquis' palace. There were already sixth youths waiting inside the palace. Out of the six youths, three were from Thunder State and three were from Southern State.

The Thunder State's talents included, the Golden Arrow Marquis' successor, Jiang Shan, Thunder State grand general's son, Lian Pojun, and Thunder State large family successor, Lin Changge.

The Southern State talents included, the Western Marquis' successor, Shangguan Zhenfei and the other two were called Wei Long and Wu Yang, who were from large Southern State families.

Jiang Shan and Shangguan Feichen were both at the 5th Awakened Soul Layer.

Lian Pojun, Lin Changge, Wei Long, and Wu Yang were all at the peak 4th Awakened Soul Layer!

The Golden Arrow Marquis Jiang Xionglong gave a quick laugh, "Central State is filled with talents and the Four Young Masters are well known. There is the famous Chu Xinghe, arrogant and sharp beyond compare. Why is he not here today?"

"Chu Xinghe, Luo Xianglong, and Ye Tianlang were all injured, so they had no way of coming." The Divine Wind Marquis gave introductions, "The Central State Purple Lightning Young Master Yun Yao is the leader this time."

Yun Yao did not dare be rude, "This Yun Yao has seen the two marquises. These are Feng Caidie, Nangong Yun, and Chu Tian."

Chu Tian?!

Shangguan Hong's eyes flashed.

"What!" A voice sound, "I was wondering why the quality of the Central State people was so bad. It turns out Chu Xinghe isn't here! I wanted to test my strength with the Central State geniuses!"

This was a man wearing a vest, revealing two sturdy arms with red muscles. His name was Wu Yang, one of the geniuses brought by the Western Marquis.

This person was at the peak 4th Awakened Soul Layer, with a similar style to Central State's Luo Xianglong. However, his might was not below Luo Xianglong's and he was also a top class genius.

Yun Yao's face sunk.

This fellow was clearly provoking them.

Nangong Yun flew into a rage, "You dare say that we aren't good enough?"

"Isn't it true?" Wu Yang gave a cold laugh and said, "How about we have a match if you're not satisfied?"

Nangong Yun rolled up her sleeves and took the giant hammer from her back, "Come! Let's have a match!"

The Divine Wind Marquis knit his brows, "Don't cause trouble! You can't forget the mission given to us!"

The Western Marquis Shangguan Hong smiled and said, "Divine Wind Marquis, young people are strong willed. Competing with one another is a good thing, otherwise how can we improve ourselves? The Calm Martial Ruler arranged for the young ones to come to Lei Zhou to allow them to gain experience, letting them try their luck and see how high the heavens are. Talents like these rarely meet, so we should let them compete."

Shangguan Feicheng proposed, "I agree with my father's thoughts, but if one's cultivation base is too high, it would be hard to control and there will be injuries. How about we nominate the weakest person among us to fight this match?"

"That's good!" The Western Marquis Shangguan Hong did not give them time to reject, "Wei Long, your defense is the highest and your attack power is not strong, we'll have you compete with Central State's Chu Tian."

Chu Tian!

Everyone understood as soon as they heard this!

After circling around for a while, this fellow was just making trouble for Chu Tian!

Chapter 214: Instantly killed with a fist

The Western Marquis had a rough idea of what happened in Central State City. Shangguan Ming had been ruthlessly taught a lesson by Chu Tian in front of several thousands, even having his little eggs crushed.

This was a member of the Shangguan Family!

Even if it were trash or a good for nothing, how could an outsider teach them a lesson?

A monkey that did not know the height of the mountain dared to throw mud at the tiger's butt?

The Imperial City did not make any moves because it was mainly Shangguan Ming who was at fault. As a special envoy sent to Central State from the Imperial City to complete a secret mission, he had exposed his identity in the Central State Main City, which was a violation of his Imperial City orders. Then there was the fact that he tried to steal the Central State hidden treasure by using the status of the Imperial City's envoy, which was forbidden!

The Shangguan Family had blocked off this information and only a few people in the Imperial City knew of this. If things became too big, it would be given attention to and would hurt the reputation of the Shangguan Family. So it was hard for them to take revenge right now.

Moreover, the Divine Wind Marquis had even gone to mediate the situation. They had to give face to one of the Southern Summer Eight Marquises, so they let go of the matter.

The Western Marquis, Shangguan Hong, was an important branch member. Although he did not have relations with Shangguan Ming, as a member of the Shangguan Family, he had a strong sense of pride in his family. This brat Chu Tian dared to go against the Shangguan Family's name, so how could he let him off?

He would have forgotten about it if they had never met.

Since they ran into each other, he would not let him off!

Shangguan Hong did not believe that the Divine Wind Marquis would go against another marquis just for a junior.

At this moment, a giant man came out. He was like a little mountain in front of Chu Tian, making others feel a strong pressure!

Wei Long was also a super genius of the Southern States large families like Wu Yang, but in comparison, Wei Long was a little weaker. Shangguan Feichen had used his words to make everyone mistake that since his defense was high, his attack power was a little weak.

This was not the case in reality.

Wei Long was indeed a defense expert, but even though he trained his defense, it did not hinder with his attack power. The two of them did not contrast with each other!

The Southern State's Wei Family had a several hundred year old cultivation technique named the «Mountain Moving Art», which had fame that did not lose to that of the Chu Family's «Soul Sword Secret Art». Practicing it to the peak, one had the might to move mountains, shake oceans, and crush cities. It was an incredibly powerful cultivation technique!

Shangguan Feichen said with a faint smile, "In Southern State, Wei Long is the third ranked genius!"

Wei Long did not speak much and his eyes flashed with a cold light. Coldly staring at Chu Tian, he said in a rough voice, "You, do you dare to fight with me!"

Wei Long's skin was black and his body was bulky, not losing to Wu Yang's. However, compared to the explosive Wu Yang, Wei Long was like a rock that no one could move.

The Divine Wind Marquis was a little hesitant…..Chu Tian should be able to win.

Wei Long was a little stronger than Central State's Luo Xianglong, but Chu Tian could beat Luo Xianglong and Ye Tianlang by himself without paying a heavy price, which meant Chu Tian had increased his strength by another step. Now it all depended on if he accepted this match or not.

Chu Tian looked over at Nangong Yun.

Nangong Yun had been with Chu Tian for a long time and her thoughts had attuned to his, she could tell just what he was thinking. With a smile, she looked at Wei Long, "Large block, do you want to challenge our weakest member?"

"Of course!" After Wei Long said this, he felt it was inappropriate. Then he added, "We'll start from the weakest!"

"Alright, just wait here. I'll call someone!"

Nangong Yun left the marquis' palace.

Chu Tian explained with a faint smile, "Since you want to fight the weakest person, we'll call the weakest person over right now. Once you beat the weakest person, it won't be too late for you to fight me, the second weakest."

"Chu Tian! What did you call me for?" After a few minutes, a beautiful girl wearing green clothes came in. She looked to be around fifteen-sixteen years old and had a childish appearance. With a face of complaint, she said, "I am the one responsible for selling canned food to the three states, don't you know that I'm very busy?!"

"This large block is the third ranked genius of Southern State." Chu Tian pointed at Meng Yingying and said, "This young miss of ours is called Meng Yingying. She was born to a small family in a small Central State city, not even being able to enter the top one hundred."

Wei Long thought he was being insulted, "What do you mean by this?"

"Humph, does Central State's Chu Tian no have the courage to fight, so he's letting this little girl send herself out to die instead?" Shangguan Feichen said in a voice of contempt, "If this were known by others, it would stain Central State's honoru! Little girl, your beauty is not bad. You should be with this successor instead of that useless, cruel fellow."

"Pei!" Although Meng Yingying did not understand what was happening, she would not allow anyone to insult Chu Tian. That was basically like insulting herself, "What do you plan on doing?"

Chu Tian looked at Meng Yingying with a dazed expression and said, "This blockhead wants to test your defense, so how about you go and play with him?"

"Say it earlier! Then come already!"

Meng Yingying was skilled in the «Starlight Immortal Body» cultivation technique. Even if her attack power could not compare to a normal person's, in terms of defensive might, not even someone at the 4th Awakened Soul Layer could hurt her.

"Did I hear wrong!" Wu Yang broke out in laughter, "You want to compete with Wei Long in defense? With this delicate little girl? Why not just give up if you can't compare? I'm feeling shame for you!"

Damn!

Daring to look down on me!

Meng Yingying flew into a rage and activated the Starlight Immortal Body. Starlight flowed out of her body and that originally white as jade skin suddenly became transparent, turning into the texture of diamonds.

Countless streams of spirit energy appeared above her head, finally forming a mirror source spirit.

"You want to challenge Chu Tian? Then get past me first!"

Wei Long gave a cold snort before a mountain like pressure came from within him. After his source spirit condensed, a giant mountain formed behind him. In front of Wei Long, countless pieces of stone condensed.

Mountain Source Spirit?

No wonder he had such strong defense!

A trivial little girl at the peak 3rd Awakened Soul Layer, how could she compete with well renowned super genius Wei Long? Wei Long roared angrily, and his right arm was covered in stones, becoming six-seven times larger, making it look like a giant club.

Not only did the Mountain Source Spirit give a strong defense, it also gave the might of a mountain!

Wei Long was not a man who was kind to women.

This little girl was courting death, so he would give it to her!

That Chu Tian had to be taken care of, that was the order from the successor, which was probably the Western Marquis' orders. If he could complete it perfectly, perhaps he would even receive a reward from the Western Marquis.

Not all the Southern Summer Eight Marquises were indifferent to fame and wealth like the Divine Wind Marquis.

This was the case with both Thunder State's Golden Arrow Marquis and Southern State's Western Marquis. Not only were they protectors of their county, they were also Main City Mayors, controlling both the military and government. So in Thunder State and Southern State, half of the resources were controlled by the marquis' family. With only a single super family, the other families all had to curry favour with them.

The two marquis' successors both already reached the 5th Awakened Soul Layer, having quite a higher cultivation compared to Chu Xinghe's.

Of course, even if their cultivations were higher, that did not mean that they were stronger than Chu Xinghe. Chu Xinghe already had a rare talent and also obtained an ancient sword inheritance. Even at the 4th Awakened Soul Layer, against these two successors, he still had a large chance of victory.

"Roar!"

Wei Long gave a wild angry roar!

The right arm covered in rock armour turned into crystal stone, becoming as black as obsidian, being covered in yellow runes.

Landslide Fist!

As the name suggested!

Once this fist technique was released, it contained the power of a landslide, incredibly overbearing power that was hard to imagine. If a normal Awakened Soul Layer Cultivator were hit by this, they would be crushed into a meat patty!

Nangong Yun's face turned a little dark.

She never thought that Wei Long's strength would be this great. If she knew this earlier, she would have personally gone up. Even Meng Yingying with the Diamond Body might be injured by this fist.

This bastard was so fierce, being this heavy handed against a young girl!

Meng Yingying was in no rush. She activated her Demon Mirror Source Spirit and produced a reflection of the Mountain Source Spirit, embodying its strength. Meng Yingying instantly felt power filling her body, changing the nature of her spirit energy, making it vigorous and strong.

"Watch my move!"

Meng Yingying loudly shouted as a rock layer quickly appeared on the surface of her body!

"Copying source spirit?"

The Divine Wind Marquis, the Golden Arrow Marquis, and the Western Marquis were all shocked. This girl who no one cared about possessed a rare talent.

"No!"

"It's not just the right arm!"

"Even the martial art has been copied!"

When Meng Yingying raised her right hand, that delicate white wrist was actually covered in a layer of crystal stone. When this fist shot forth, it also had the power of a landslide behind it!

Landslide Fist!

How could she also use the Landslide Fist?

This was the secret martial art of the Wei Family!

Wei Long's face turned sinister. What did it matter if she learned it, it was just an empty mold, "Die!"

Whether it was the size, power, momentum, or speed, they could not compare, but they were still destined to clash.

Meng Yingying's «Starlight Immortal Body» was not weak and she had 60-70% of the power of Wei Long's Mountain Source Spirit!

When the fists clashed.

The rock armour formed by Meng Yingying's copied Mountain Source Spirit shattered. After the black crystal shattered, the shiny diamond skill was revealed, perfectly blocking the power of the landslide fist that followed!

Double layered defense!

This was using two layers of defense at once!

"Hong!"

Wei Long's strength was reflected back and Meng Yingying's strength also hit his body.

The rock layer on his skin shattered and his right fist made several bean popping sounds. He looked up as he vomited blood while being sent into the wall of the Marquis' palace, fainting on the spot.

"How is this possible?!"

Everyone revealed a shocked expression.

Even Chu Tian was surprised. How could this happen?

Even if the Starlight Immortal Body had a strong reflective strength, the strength reflected could not be this strong!

The little fox curled its lips, revealing a knowing look.

Meng Yingying looked at her own fist in a daze as she muttered, "God, how is my fist this powerful!"

She suddenly thought of something and took out the ancient little bronze mirror from her chest. The mirror's surface dimmed a little, as if a bit of its power had been used.

"I know now, it was this mirror being used!" Meng Yingying excitedly held up the mirror, "This mirror can increase the effect of the reflective might. Thanks for giving me such an easy to use gift little fox!"

The little fox curled its lip and waved its hand, signifying that it was only a little gift!

No one had expected this result.

Chu Tian had called out Meng Yingying, but he never expected her to win against Wei Long. He was expecting a tie at best, with neither being able to do anything to the other. No one would have expected that Meng Yingying would actually waste Wei Long with a single punch. This was truly a shock that no one had expected.

Especially those Southern State fellows who all had pale looks on their faces.

Wei Long was the third ranked genius of Southern State.

This little girl who was only in the 3rd Awakened Soul Layer had no reputation at all, being an unknown person. A genius of Southern State had been beaten by a single fist from an unknown girl, this made the people from Southern State lose all their face!

Chapter 215: Fighting Wu Yang

The Shangguan father and son combo revealed sinister looks. The respected Wei Long had lost to a silly girl, this was truly a great insult to the talents of Southern State. If this news passed through Thunder State, what face would they have left?

"Can I go now?" Meng Yingying anxiously scratched her head, "I still have more canned food to ship!"

"There's nothing left for you here." Chu Tian nodded, "Go ahead!"

Wei Long had lost by accident. With Meng Yingying's duplication ability and martial arts, she used her spirit energy very quickly. As long as Wei Long took his time, Meng Yingying would not have had a chance to win.

No one expected Wei Long to be so vicious, using his strongest attack right away!

In the end, he was the one who hurt himself by having his strongest attack being reflected with Meng Yingying's strength added in, instantly collapsing Wei Long's strong defenses. He had suffered heavy injuries that could not be healed in a short period of time.

The Golden Arrow Marquis Jiang Xiong gave a few loud laughs, "Strong! Strong! The Divine Wind Marquis has truly broadened this Jiang's horizons!"

The Divine Wind Marquis' face lit up, "My luck is just good."

Wei Long was a famous genius and had lost to the unknown Meng Yingying which made everyone surprised.

The Golden Arrow Marquis' successor Jiang Shan clapped his hand, "Central State is full of amazing people. Even though three of the Four Young Masters did not come, their lineup still cannot be underestimated!"

Lian Pojun and Lin Changge both nodded.

They also noticed another strange thing.

Although Chu Tian's cultivation base was not high, whether it was Yun Yao at the 5th Awakened Soul Layer, Nangong Yun with her fiery personality, or even the Divine Wind Marquis' daughter Feng Caidie, they were all centered around him. On the surface, the leader of the team was Yun Yao, but the actual leader was Chu Tian.

This man was definitely beyond the others.

"I'm not satisfied!" Wu Yang stood up under Shangguan Feichen's suggestion, "Wei Long was too proud and hadn't used his true strength. How could the Southern State's talents be below those of Central State?"

"I, Wu Yang will rectify Southern States name!" Wu Yang pulled out a sword and shouted at Chu Tian as he pointed the sabre at him, "If you're a man, then don't run away. Fight me in a fair and square battle!"

The Divine Wind Marquis was a little dissatisfied, "Does the Western Marquis want to play until the end?"

The Western Marquis revealed a helpless look, "Actually, Southern State encourages them to compete, so I never interfere with matters between juniors and let them make their own decisions."

The Golden Arrow Marquis also knit his brows.

The Western Marquis was clearly targeting this youth.

Although he didn't know what grudges they had, nobility shouldn't act in this kind of manner.

However, the Golden Arrow Marquis did not want to offend the Western Marquis right now because Thunder State required the Western Marquis' strength. The youths were here for experience only, so they wouldn't be much use. It was fine if they were injured because it wasn't important.

"Alright." Chu Tian unsheathed the Netherworld Sword as he walked out. The blue and white flames danced on the sword's blade, "I will accept your challenge!"

The Divine Wind Marquis gave a sigh when he saw this.

He wasn't worried about Chu Tian being injured, but rather this situation becoming even more complicated!

"Listen closely, my inherited «Heaven Burning Sabre Art» cultivates spirit flames. It is renowned in Southern State for having infinite might!" Wu Yang revealed a fierce look as his sabre released red flames, "My sabre contains an Earth Spirit Flame that can even instantly melt iron, even Wei Long's defense cannot stop it. Because it is very strong, it is hard to hold back. If you accidentally die or become wasted, then don't blame me."

Chu Tian revealed a look of confidence, "Then let's see if your sabre or the sword in my hand is stronger. Whether your Earth Spirit Flame or my Netherworld Flame is sharper."

"Since you're so arrogant, then die!" Wu Yang had already finished condensing his flames and he suddenly released his Source Spirit. His power instantly increased as he released his strongest move, "Burning Heaven Dance!"

The blade seemed like it summoned the flames of hell that had the power to exterminate the entire world.

"Good move!" Chu Tian's Netherworld Flame was also fully condensed as he escaped into the netherworld, releasing a single giant burning sword glow – Netherworld Raging Flame Slash!

Dang!

The two flaming weapons clashed and the walls of the marquis palace were shattered. The sabre and sword qi clashed, its might flew out unhindered. The two different kinds of strength seemed to be equally balanced.

Wu Yang was shocked. This fellow could block his full strength attack?

Chu Tian was also a little surprised because even Luo Xianglong had not been able to block this. This Wu Yang's strength was higher than he imagined!

They seemed to be equal, but Wu Yang was a bit stronger. The moment the sword collided and the flames exploded, there was a part that hit Chu Tian. If it wasn't for the Starlight Immortal Body, Chu Tian would have lost.

This move was not weaker than the Raging Flame Slash!

Wu Yang also had a top class soul weapon!

Chu Tian's source spirit's enhancement was stronger, but Wu Yang's cultivation was much deeper!

"Ha, ha, we're even in this one move!" Wu Yang's long sabre lit up once again, "But how will you block the second attack?"

Wu Yang was clear on his superiority, he would use his cultivation base to suppress him!

Comparing the 3rd and 4th Awakened Soul Layers, not only was there a difference in spirit energy strength, there was also a difference in condensing speed. So, Wu Yang was able to release another "Burning Heaven Dance", but Chu Tian could not condense another attack so quickly.

No one expected that when Wu Yang half condensed his attack, the bead in Chu Tian's chest would release a glow and spew out large amounts of Netherworld Flames, which instantly entered his sword.

"What?!" Wu Yang revealed a look of panic as Chu Tian's sword approached, "Wait, I give up!"

Too late!

The flaming sword glow shattered the long sabre!

The slash pierced through Wu Yang's body protecting spirit energy and countless streams of sinister Netherworld Flames entered his meridians. Wu Yang gave a pitiful cry as he fainted.

They lost again?

And they had lost in such a clean manner!

Two geniuses at the peak 4th Awakened Soul Layer actually couldn't fight two people at the peak 3rd Awakened Soul Layer?

Shangguan Feichen used his spirit energy to stabilize Wu Yang's injuries. With a simple inspection, he flew into rage as he said, "Wu Yang's meridians and visceras are all heavily injured. Perhaps even top class Sacred Medicine will not be able to heal him!"

"Despicable!" Shangguan Hong looked at Chu Tian will a face of rage and killing intent, "This was just a match of comparing notes and Wu Yang clearly gave up at the end, but why would you ruin a person's future to then end? How could there be such a sinister person in Central State!"

"If I didn't show mercy, then he would have died already!" Chu Tian sheathed his sword, "Next time you send someone over to cause trouble, think over your own actions. Don't slap yourself with your own hand."

It had been many years since someone dared to provoke the Western Marquis.

The Western Marquis was still one of the eight Southern Summer Marquises

The Golden Arrow Marquis looked at Chu Tian with admiration. The current youths found it hard to block the pressure the marquises released. However, this youth named Chu Tian not only dared to provoke the Western Marquis, he even showed his pride in front of the Western Marquis' pressure.

"You're going too far!" Shangguan Feichen angrily stood up, "I'll fight with you!"

Shangguan Feichen was the Western Marquis' successor and hopefully the future Marquis. The resources invested into him was not something an elder like Shangguan Ming could compare to. So, Shangguan Feichen's strength was far above Shangguan Ming's, and could even compare to the shocking Chu Xinghe.

The Divine Wind Marquis was afraid Chu Tian would do something crazy.

Chu Tian should have used his full strength to deal with Wu Yang, so he will not be able to fight this Shangguan Feichen who could compare to Chu Xinghe!

"That's enough!" The Divine Wind Marquis was already angry, "Does the Western Marquis really want to go this far? How about I compete with you instead!"

The Divine Wind Marquis was truly angered.

The Shangguan Family did not need to fear the Divine Wind Marquis with their background, but they weren't willing to provoke the Divine Wind Marquis over a small person like Chu Tian.

"Brother Feng is too serious." Shangguan Hong said in a fake reprimanding tone, "Feichen, you are still my successor, how could you degrade your status by fighting a low cultivation person like this? Wei Long and Wu Yang were weaker, so they lost. The competition ends here!"

Shangguan Feichen gave a cold snort.

The Golden Arrow Marquis shook his head with a bitter smile, "We're all here to help Thunder State, so how could we let it go this far? Jiang Shan, you will introduce the talents of the two states. I will discuss the strategy of how to eliminate the disaster with the other two marquises."

Jiang Shan walked over with the Thunder State geniuses, "The Thunder State wine is very famous, I ask everyone to come and enjoy it!"

"We'll pass!" Shangguan Feichen had a look of rage, so how could he remain here with Chu Tian, "Wei Long and Wu Yang have been seriously injured and I need to give them treatment, so we won't come with you."

After saying this.

He left without looking back.

Nangong Yun said in a voice of disdain, "Small hearted and small minded, really not a true man!"

Jiang Shan did not wish for conflict, so he quickly led them away.

Jiang Shan's group of three and Chu Tian's group of four went to find a tavern.

"Brother Chu's strength is quite impressive!" The Golden Arrow Marquis' successor, Jiang Shan sat down and began to laugh, "To be honest, I am also dissatisfied with those from the Shangguan Family. Isn't he just relying on his background to be so high and mighty? Ever since they came to Thunder State, they had been looking for faults with me and my father, acting in a high and mighty manner! This time, you really taught them a lesson, ha, ha, ha, ha!"

"I never thought that Brother Chu would be able to defeat Wu Yang!" Lian Pojun had a full bearded face and although he was only twenty six-seven, he looked like he was around thirty-forty years old, "If I fought him, I would have only had a 50% chance of winning. My cultivation has already reached the peak 4th Awakened Soul Layer, but Brother Chu is only in the Void Soul Realm, it really is incredible!"

Lin Changge gave an emotional sigh, "The Chu Family has a Chu Xinghe and now another Chu Tian, they will truly shake the land. Central State is not simple! Central State's Chu Family is not simple!"

"Wrong!" Nangong Yun corrected them, "Chu Xinghe is Chu Xinghe, Chu Tian is Chu Tian, they're not related at all. Moreover, although Chu Tian is surnamed Chu, he is not related to the Central State Chu Family at all."

Jiang Shan, Lian Pujun, and Lin Changge were all shocked.

Chu Tian was so powerful, but he wasn't from the Central State Chu Family?

Feng Caidie simply explained the matter, "To be honest, Chu Xinghe, Luo Xianglong, and Ye Tianlang not being able to participate is all related to Chu Tian."

"Fuck!" Lian Po Jun directly blurted out, "Did you cripple the three of them?!"

Lin Changge was also stunned for a while before raising a thumb and said, "Strong! You really are too strong!"

"No wonder the Divine Wind Marquis places so much importance on Brother Chu! I really look forward to the day when I can rush to the northern battlefield with Brother Chu and fight the spirit beasts together!" While Jiang Shan was speaking, he heroically picked up a jug of wine, "I, Jiang Shan admires heroes the most. It is fate that we met today, so let's become friends. No need to be polite, drink up!"

The Golden Arrow Marquis was considered an extraordinary person in the Southern Summer Country.

Although he was born in a small family, he had extraordinary talent. With a chance encounter, he received an ancient bow inheritance. Spending half his life, performing many merits, he was finally given the title of the Golden Arrow Marquis. He was given power by the country, turning Thunder State into his territory!

Although the Golden Arrow Marquis no longer walked the battlefield, in the battlefront against the spirit beasts to the north, around a third of the soldiers were trained in Thunder State. In terms of military knowledge, the Golden Arrow Marquis could not compare to the Southern Summer Country's War God, the Calm Martial Ruler, but he was still extremely skilled in military training.

The Golden Arrow Marquis had his own personal training method and the troops trained by him were all elites of the Southern Summer Country. The people of Thunder State all regarded entering the army as an honour, so they all worshipped heroes. Jiang Shan, Lian Pojun, and Lin Changge were all officers of the army, serving in the military and living life with the troops, so they had a high prestige in Thunder State.

Jiang Shan had the esteemed position of being the successor, but he did not have the arrogance of a noble.

Lian Pojun and Lin Changge were all from aristocratic families, but they did not have an arrogant disposition.

These people were worthy of befriending.

"You are all here!" When they were close to finished drinking, Meng Yingying came panting in. Following her were Lin Mu and Fang Han who she was giving control of, "We have given a hundred cans of food to the soldiers of the three states and everyone was full of excitement and welcoming! There's still a few left for you to eat!"

Jiang Shan was very curious, "What are these cans?"

"Easy to store cans of food invented by Central State's Miracle Commerce!" Feng Caidie gave the three of them a can each, "I'll also tell you that Brother Chu is the Chairman of Miracle Commerce. If you like them, then you can ask him for them!"

"Miracle Commerce?" This was Lian Pojun's first time hearing about it, "Little Brother Chu's company? Ha, ha, this is quite refreshing! Brother Chu is this young and he's already starting a business!"

Chu Tian helplessly said, "I didn't live a life in a large family, having the family train me. Cultivation costs a lot of money, so I have to start a business."

After saying this, the three of them opened the cans.

"Yi? It's demon beast meat!"

Meng Yingying confidently said, "Have a taste, the flavour is quite good!"

The three of them had a bite in a doubting manner. They had never eaten source energy cooked food before, so how could they know how delicious demon beast meat was?

"This..."

"This is incredible!"

"When did demon beast meat become this delicious!"

Lian Pojun and Lin Changge revealed looks of disbelief.

Jiang Shan excitedly asked, "How long can this demon beast meat be stored for?"

Meng Yingying revealed a slightly embarrassed smile, "With Miracle Commerce's current technology, it can be stored in normal environments for around a year!"

"What? A year!"

This was canned meat!

This was meat that could last a year!

Jiang Shan realized the importance of this canned meat to the army. A cultivator required large amounts of energy, so they required a large amount of normal food. A normal Awakened Soul Cultivator could eat an entire roasted sheep, so while they were marching, it was required to bring along a large amount of food. It would be better to just bring along some demon beast meat!

The demon beast meat was very tough and hard to cut even with a knife. It was very hard to eat and one couldn't eat a lot of it or they would have digestive problems.

This canned meat was not the same!

A single can of food would be enough to meet the food requirements of an elite soldier for an entire day. Body Refinement Cultivators could eat level one cans and Awakened Soul Cultivators could eat level two cans. Cultivators of different realms could eat different grades of demon beast meat. This would be a large help to the efficiency of the army.

"This stuff is really good!" Jiang Shan was full of praise, "Brother Chu, I will represent my father in talking with you. How many cans of food can you make every year?"

Chu Tian revealed a faint smile, "You have to ask Yingying."

"Miracle Commerce has two canned food factories open right now and there will be over ten in the future. With our current situation, a single factory can make close to twenty-thirty thousand cans per day."

The production line is quite good!

Jiang Shan's eyes lit up revealing a clear excitement!

"From the popularity of the canned foods, our supplies have fallen short of our demand." Meng Yingying thought about it, "We can provide Thunder State with three hundred thousand cans of food every month. Because there is a grade difference between level one demon beasts and it is being used for the military, then the beast meat must be at high quality, which should cost ten-fifteen million gold coins!"

The prices of these cans were not cheap!

After all, there was the worries of shipping between counties.

"Three hundred thousand is too little!" Jiang Shan did not even think about it before saying, "How about six hundred thousand for forty million every month?"

This price was not bad.

When he saw Meng Yingying hesitate, Jiang Shan quickly said, "The Jiang Family will not store the canned food and these cans of food will be directly sent to the northern battlefront, being considered as contributions to the kingdom. We will not resell these cans, so Miracle Commerce can still trade with the merchants of Thunder State.

Of course, the kingdom would also give them money.

Central State had troubles directly sending the goods to the battlefront and Thunder State had the topographical advantage. If they sold the canned foods, then they could easily make ten-twenty million per month. The kingdom will not care about this small amount of money because the canned food would increase the battle strength of the army.

"Alright!" Meng Yingying made her decision, "We'll give you six hundred thousand!"

Meng Yingying had already taken a large order as soon as she came to Thunder State. With the order of the Thunder State Jiang Family, Miracle Commerce would be able to make twenty-thirty million gold coins per month!
