Chapter 36: Preparing to Return (2/2)
But before they left, Little Fatty suddenly called out to the both of them and said, “What do you think we should do with the 5 element mine?”
“Do you still need to ask? Of course, we’ll keep it to ourselves! When we have no more spiritual stones, we can come and dig out more of it!” Monkey immediately replied.
“En, that’s right. I also think that we should keep the mine a secret and leave it for ourselves!” Han Ling Feng replied in agreement.
“Both of you have this opinion?” Little Fatty rubbed his head, laughed bitterly and said, “The both of you, we just offended the Blood Ravens on the Blood Raven Ridge. It is fortuitous that we can escape this round, yet you still want to come back to dig for spiritual stones? I say, do you guys think that the Blood Ravens do not bear a grudge?”
“Ah~” After hearing what Little Fatty said, both Han Ling Feng and Monkey both cried out in enlightenment. They then remembered that the place they were at was like a forbidden area to them.
However, Han Ling Feng immediately said, “Since you can send us out, can’t you send us back as well?”
“Right, right, as long as Fatty bro help us, it would be fine!” Monkey hurriedly said.
“The both of you, in order to bring the both of you out, I would need to exhaust a large amount of 5 elements pure essence. Do you guys know how much the 5 elements pure essence is worth? This is an important ingredient to refine high-grade elixirs. The 5 element pure essence is rare in nature and is definitely insufficient for use. Normally, large sects would use enormous amounts of spiritual stone and use precious artifacts to refine 5 elements pure essence. However, such a 5 element pure essence is not of a high grade, but it very expensive. Every drop is worth thousands of spiritual stones. When we escape, this time, I will at least have to drink about half a catty worth. That is worth over a few hundred thousand spiritual stones!” Little Fatty then laughed bitterly and said, “Spending so much money just for all of you to dig tens of thousand of spiritual stone? To make such a loss, how stupid must the both of you be in order to think of something like this?”
“This~” Han Ling Feng and Monkey were rendered speechless.
“I would say that this spiritual rock mine is not much use to us!” Little Fatty then added, “That pond of 5 elements pure essence belongs to the 3 of us. The both of you have also stored quite a bit. If you go out and sell that, it would definitely be enough for you to spend for the next few decades. Why would the both of you need to come here and dig for it on your own? Don’t tell me the both of you really love digging the mine so much?”
“Who likes to dig in a mine?” Han Ling Feng hurriedly said, “But if we don’t dig it, then are we going to throw it away? Such a big mining area, if we dig it all out, it would be worth tens of millions of spiritual stone or even more!”
“Yeah, such a large fortune, we can’t possibly throw it away right?” Monkey also said indignantly.
“Of course, it isn’t good to throw it away. But it is also not practical for us to dig it out. After all, it is a public place in the vast mountains. There will occasionally be people who will pa.s.s by here. If it is found out, will we be able to keep this place? Besides, to dig a mine is such a large project. With just the 3 of us without an organisation for support, we will not be able to finish digging it even if we die from fatigue.” Little Fatty said.
“Then what do you think we should do?” Han Ling Feng said.
“If I were to say, let us give this mine to the sect!” Little Fatty said happily, “Although the lower cla.s.s disciples in the Mystical Sky Yard is corrupted, but the upper echelons still care about their reputation. It is, after all, a righteous sect! With such a large contribution, you would definitely be admitted into the inner court. As for the both of us, we would definitely receive some attention. As long as we are able to enter the sights of the upper echelons, we do not need to be afraid of people who wants to harm us!”
