Chapter 626: Getting Rich Overnight!
The Miao Family martial practitioners who came over in such a hostile manner ultimately retreated in defeat. They weren’t able to take even a blade of grass away from Black Cloud Palace.
“Carry the spirit stones and crystals up the fire phoenixes. Quickly! We should leave this place as soon as possible!” Hong Bowen returned to the Flowing Gold Fire Phoenix and fell silent once more.
The Gold Sun Island martial practitioners continued to busy themselves, continuously going in and out of all the mines. They began looting Black Cloud Palace’s many palaces en masse.
When he saw that the situation was safe once more, Qin Lie smiled and prepared to return to the fire phoenix.
Seeing that he was about to leave, the sexy Gold Sun island beauty couldn’t help but put on an inviting appearance and give him a bold hint. “My name is… Yi Man. Remember to come look for me.”
“Sure!” Qin Lie laughed loudly.
Looting Black Cloud Palace took Gold Sun Island a whole eight hours. It was only when morning came that the martial practitioners finally finished with their work after going back and forth on the crystalline war chariots.
The fire phoenixes finally left Black Cloud Palace at sunrise and entered the clouds, returning to Setting Sun Islands.
On the way, most of the Gold Sun Island martial practitioners busied themselves with sorting out the goods they’d seized. Among them were three island envoys, Hu Yun, Liu Qin, and Fang He.
Out of the three, only Hu Yun had come into contact with Qin Lie while he was still known as “Xing Lie.”
At the time, all three envoys thought that Qin Lie was young and inexperienced. They had treated him with indifference even though Xing Shengnan had instructed them to guide Qin Lie in the cultivation of his realm.
In fact, Liu Qin and Fang He had immediately found excuses to push their responsibilities on Hu Yun and escape.
Hu Yun, on the other hand, had earned some soul crystals from Qin Lie.
Right now, Qin Lie was someone who could stand toe to toe with Xing Yumiao. This would be the source of great regret for Liu Qin and Fang He when they encountered Qin Lie once more.
“Why don’t you tell us about our spoils, Hu Yun,” Qin Lie asked with a smile.
“Young Master… Qin.” Hu Yun was all smiles as he flipped through the ledger and excitedly declared, “We’ve obtained a total of six hundred thousand Earth Grade spirit stones from Black Cloud Palace! There are seventy eight Profound Grade spirit artifacts, nine Earth Grade spirit artifacts, and thirty five bottles of all kinds of spirit pills. We also got three thousand Fate Crystals, twenty six hundred Aurora Stones, and four hundred and fifty Thunder Sand Jades! Aside from that, we also got twelve spatial rings filled to the brim with all sorts of spirit materials and more than three hundred bundles of spirit plants!”
Qin Lie’s eyes were shining.
When he first departed from the Scarlet Tide Continent and arrived in the Land of Chaos, he only had five Earth Grade spirit stones with him.
The amount of spirit stones he had to pay to ride a spirit eagle from Spirit Eagle Island to Sea Moon Island already cost him five Earth Grade spirit stones. Then he needed another eighteen of them to travel from Sea Moon Island to the Heavenly Wither Continent.
Earth Grade spirit stones were the standard currency in the Land of Chaos. A single Profound Grade Six or Profound Grade Seven spirit artifact could cost up to one or two thousand Earth Grade spirit stones, not to mention that using the intercontinental teleportation formation cost a thousand spirit stones per use. Qin Lie and his companions had used up a total of nine thousand Earth Grade spirit stones travelling from the Heavenly Calamity Continent to the Heavenly Fissure Continent.
In the end, their lack of spirit stones even forced them to stay at Black Jade City for a time.
Qin Lie never thought they would earn more than six hundred thousand Earth Grade spirit stones in one go just by robbing Black Cloud Palace. They also obtained a multitude of spirit artifacts, spirit pills, spirit materials, and crystals.
This amount of profit made Qin Lie’s eyes blaze with emotion. He sighed on the inside, thinking, “Robbery really is the fastest way to accumulate wealth!”
Xing Yuyuan laughed loudly and yelled, “Black Cloud Palace deserves its name! They truly are a Copper rank force! Even if we’ve completely offended Green Moon Valley and we end up fighting them in the future, this trip was worth it!”
“The spirit stones, spirit artifacts, and spirit materials we obtained today is equivalent to what Gold Sun Island would get after thirty years of normal development, and this… is just what we got from Black Cloud Palace.” Hu Yun also smiled.
Xiang Xi, Xu Changsheng, and Xu Jiadong had taken their forces to Heavenly Sea Pavilion with another Nirvana Realm expert as escort.
Heavenly Sea Pavilion was also a Copper rank force like Black Cloud Palace. Logically speaking, the spoils over there shouldn’t be much less than Black Cloud Palace’s.
The total loot Gold Sun Island would obtain from this split operation was bound to be an extremely shocking amount
“Qin Lie, I heard that you need spirit stones and spirit materials of the six great attributes, metal, wood, water, fire, earth, and thunder. Is that correct?” Xing Yuyuan suddenly asked.
Qin Lie nodded.
“When we return to Gold Sun Island have done our calculations, Xiang Xi and I will give you a portion of the loot that fit those attributes,” Xing Yuyuan promised.
Qin Lie’s eyes lit up. With a pleased smile on his face, he said, “That would be great!”
Guo Yanzheng sighed. A trace of regret could be heard in his voice as he said, “If the elders of Black Cloud Palace and Heavenly Sea Pavilion hadn’t hidden most of their respective force’s wealth after Zheng Zhihe and Jiang Hao died, our rewards might have been several times bigger than what we got today!”
“It’s fine,” Xing Yuyuan said indifferently. “These spoils are already beyond our imagination!”
