‘We seem to have gotten wind about something amazing!’
‘Whatever it is, it’s – it’s something incredible!’
‘The Celestial Amethyst Qi? That’s an absolute necessity to accomplish Dao. Forget about actually possessing it, just being able to lay a finger on it is like touching the gate to Dao itself! Do you think it’s important or not?’
‘The air of vitality? Legends say that it can eliminate everything negative in the body, including the battle scars earned since the beginning of one’s cultivation journey, down to the remaining and hidden illnesses left in one’s physique… Everything can be completely erased! Having a gush of air of vitality is basically akin to recovering one’s entire physical and innate form!’
‘Do you think it’s significant? Is it not precious?’
‘There’s more to the power of soul and the force of divine sense but they need no explanation! Everything is blatantly obvious!’
‘There’s also the Youth Recovery Pill that can take an old man back to his youth within a night… It’s logic-defying!’
‘How about that Seal-Breaker Pill that can break through any realm’s bottleneck? The legends have it as well, but it has been missing for at least over ten thousand years…’
‘And – and…’
The breathing of the four elders quickened as their eyes glowed. Like famished wolves zeroing in on fresh meat, their gazes were locked on Yun Yang’s fine face.
“How do we obtain them? Do tell, Brother Yun! No need to be wary, you can speak freely!” Lang Fantian asked in a hurry.
If he did not know about Yun Yang’s significant background, he would actually have considered holding this child captive to make him stay by his side forever, lest he met others! It was simply too precious to share!
“It’s difficult!” Yun Yang chuckled dryly and said, “To all of you, I seem to be exceptionally blessed, possessed of incredible fort.i.tude and my cultivation journey seems smoothly laid out before me. No one knows that I’m utterly lost about what lies ahead of me – I’m helpless!”
Exceptionally blessed – that was about right. Even Lang Fantian felt that Yun Yang’s luck was over the top in regards to his encounter.
To be innately gifted was rare, but talent was not the core of cultivation in a place like the Bound of Universe; luck was. Although Yun Yang was marvelously gifted, possessing the vacant spiritual physique that was not seen since eons, he was, at most, a precious talent. It did not mean that he was not irreplaceable or that he could not be disposed of!
“This time included, I’ve failed my mission twice in a row,” Yun Yang heaved a deep sigh, “That’s why the venerable deific sense increases his requests, several times more than the past. How can I possibly complete them with my current state?”
“The upper cla.s.s and even divine cla.s.s spiritual jade pieces, among the other requests, are only the most basic and compulsory items. There are plenty more things, many more requests. There’s even one that puzzles me – providence.”
Yun Yang looked helpless.
“Providence! How can I find something so vague like providence?”
Lang Fantian asked, “Providence? What the senior requires includes providence?”
“Yes. The lord didn’t elaborate on what he meant when he mentioned providence. He only said that whether it’s providence from sects, empires or geography, they’re all acceptable. He can absorb them.”
“However, how can this realm’s providence be obtained so easily? Even when I’ve poured out all my a.s.sets and established a sect, how can I acquire more Celestial Luck Banners? If I don’t have the Celestial Luck Banner, how do I even begin to collect providence?”
Lang Fantian’s brow knotted into a deep frown as he listened to Yun Yang. He stayed silent for some time.
This was indeed a challenge.
The General Commerce League itself only possessed the middle-cla.s.s Celestial Luck Banner. Hope was only beginning to glimmer for them after all these years of effort and additional experts. They were hoping to get the upper-cla.s.s Celestial Luck Banner in next year’s compet.i.tion and that would already be their limit. This was also a time where they needed providence, so they could not and did not intend to give any of it to Yun Yang.
After all, the commerce league was a commercial organization. It was not a super sect.
Despite the league possessing many experts whose cultivation base were very high, so much so that a portion of them could even leap across the upper-cla.s.s Celestial Luck Banner sects and compare to the pillar forces of the Golden cla.s.s Celestial Luck Banner organizations, many of these experts came from the mentioned sects or the Golden cla.s.s palace. They were only working in the league and did not belong to the league’s combat forces. Once their originating sects were involved, they could rebel at any time!
Therefore, while Lang Fantian could specifically relate to Yun Yang’s difficulty, he did not have a solution to it. Naturally, he was left bewildered, unable to come up with any help.
“To ensure that the fort.i.tude lives on, I had no other choice but to set up my own sect.”
Yun Yang chuckled bitterly and said, “Unfortunately, there are only the two of us right now in the sect. Oh, there’s a majordomo who’s not in charge of battling… the little fatty who exposed the Ethereal Amethyst in the market previously.”
Lang Fantian rolled his eyes, feeling speechless as he stared at Yun Yang and s.h.i.+ Wuchen. He honestly had no reply for the boy.
‘Brother… we are truly speechless about your situation. Other than that, we’re powerless as well. We feel helpless for you and we… feel your pain!’
‘Do you think we wouldn’t have checked your background, given how significant this matter is? We’ve already gone through the origin of the few of you!’
‘How dare you call yourself a sect when your minuscule sect doesn’t even live up to a sect’s façade? Forget about being a sect, any group in the martial world has more people than you fellows do…’
“As for the resources…” Yun Yang straightened up and gritted his teeth as he said, “To be honest, other than robbing… we have no other options left to us.”
“Robbing…” Lang Fantian and subordinates had nothing to say but Feng Guohai’s eyes lit up.
“You two are indeed…”
“That’s right – we are the fanatic bandits, Raiders of All But G.o.d!” Yun Yang cut him off.
“Raiders of All But G.o.d?”
Lang Fantian and the other two elders had just arrived in Dongye City, thus they had no clue what the name meant. They only thought it to be rather famous.
Feng Guohai chortled without humor and explained the origin of the name Raiders of All But G.o.d as well as the other popular nicknames Black and White Ruthless Duo, Feathers-Off-A-Swallow and more.
“Hahahaha…” Lang Fantian guffawed to the point of shedding tears.
“What are you laughing at? We are forced to do it. If it weren’t for the fact that we had no choice, would we have taken even a few pieces of lower cla.s.s spiritual jade?” Yun Yang tried retorting but his tone gradually weakened to melancholy and he finally fell silent, looking glum and sorrowful.
“How about this? Why would we expose you, now?” Lang Fantian said as he slapped the table, “Don’t worry, it’s just robbery. How serious can it be? If needs be, we can send people to help you fellows commit robbery!”
s.h.i.+ Wuchen was speechless. His superior had casually dissolved their hugest risk, just like that. Furthermore, it seemed that they would have a specifically secure selling channel in the future. It also looked like they had strong support and a safer transaction course now…
Such strategy and such a reaction… how had his superior even thought of them?
‘Why are you calling yourself Supreme Cloud with this mind of yours – call yourself Supreme Wit!’
Glancing at the ten pieces of Ethereal Amethysts placed on the table, s.h.i.+ Wuchen abruptly recalled something. He felt as if his head had been struck by a flash of lightning, almost fainting from the shock.
He finally remembered the hundreds of pieces of purple crystals Yun Yang had casually tossed when he set up the formation…
