Chapter 187: Death For The Sake Of Wealth

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Apelo did not know the exact location of the Nanxiang Gathering Place.

But he could fly…

He could fly high and see far.

Soon, Apelo found his target.

He landed in the desolate ruins of the ancient city, looking for traces of life everywhere, but could not find any signs of life.

Apelo was silent for a long time before suddenly speaking.

“Search! Find them!!”

“Even if they’ve escaped to the ends of the earth, you have to find them!!”

It was no wonder that Apelo lost his composure on the spot.

Everything started with this Nanxiang Gathering Place…

Because the Black Feather Tribe knew of the existence of the Nanxiang Gathering Place, they sent their troops here, which ultimately provoked the Blood Flesh Mother Tree.

The Blood Flesh Mother Tree then traced back to Black Feather Mountain and wiped out the entire Black Feather Tribe!

He originally thought that with the support of the Giant Clan, he could take revenge.

But little did he know that his allies and his greatest enemy would become entangled with each other during this time.

During this period of time, Apelo had undoubtedly experienced the most emotional turmoil!

He was extremely unlucky…

And now, when Apelo wanted to take advantage of an opportunity, he found that the opportunity had slipped through his fingers.

His pent-up anger erupted in an instant!

“I’m not just pursuing the qualifications to ascend to the heavens! I also want to vent my anger!”

“Wait till I find you! I’ll definitely tear you into pieces to vent the hatred in my heart!”

If Lu Ming was at the scene, he would surely say, “Brother, you brought this upon yourself. If you had been honest and straightforward, you wouldn’t have so many problems.”

However, Apelo clearly could not accept such reasoning….

In the Black Mist Zone, this was the way things were. The strong bullied the weak, and Apollo did not see anything wrong with it.

Soon, his subordinates found traces left behind by the Nanxiang people during their relocation.

Apelo thought briefly and had his answer.

“They’ve fled towards the Hundred Thousand Mountains!”

Then, with a wave of his hand, he commanded,

“Chase after them!”

Beside him, an old Black Feather Tribe member spoke softly, trying to persuade him,

“Chief, as the saying goes, don’t chase after a desperate enemy. We’re still serving in the military. Once we waste too much time on these tribulation transcenders, I’m worried that we won’t be able to explain ourselves to Hao Lie.”

Apelo angrily shouted, “Are you teaching me how to do things?!”

“Hao Lie and I are sworn brothers! So what if I disobey a military order?!”

Obviously, he was a little obsessed…

His subordinate no longer tried to persuade him and simply obeyed him, flying speedily towards the Hundred Thousand Mountains.

On the same day, in Archean City.

Due to the incident involving the Flame Clan ruins, Archean City had become quite lively recently.

A large number of low-level explorers flocked to the Hundred Thousand Mountains, dreaming of getting rich overnight.

But the matter of the Flame Clan ruins did not cause much disturbance to the upper echelons of Archean City.

This was because they knew very well that it was just a smokescreen released by the Heaven Saber Gang, shrouded in uncertainty.

Moreover, to the higher-ups of Archean City, there was another matter of great importance before them.

That was the position of the City Lord of Archean City!

As the only channel to the outside world for the Hundred Thousand Mountains, the interests in Archean City were immense!

However, due to various factors, the management of this place was in disarray.

Archean City was not limited to any specific tribe; it was a place where numerous tribes coexisted.

The ones who ruled Archean City were two gangs and one individual.

The two gangs were the Heaven Saber Gang and the Divine Dao Gang.

The strongest experts in the two gangs were both level nine Physique Realm experts!

And the individual was the former City Lord of Archean City, Roda!

Roda’s tribe was unknown. It was said that he had risen from obscurity and obtained opportunities in the Hundred Thousand Mountains to become a Spirit Realm expert!

In this small corner of Archean City.

A Spirit Realm expert was like a prehistoric giant crocodile!

Thirty years ago, Roda ruled Archaic City with the strength of the Spirit Realm. His overwhelming martial strength made everyone in the city submit to him!

To the Heaven Saber Gang and the Divine Dao Gang, it was fortunate that Roda was not someone who coveted power and wealth. After becoming the City Lord, Roda did not implement sweeping reforms but instead delegated a significant portion of his power to the two gangs.

He chose to focus on his own cultivation, repeatedly entering the Hundred Thousand Mountains in search of further opportunities. In other words, he was a martial maniac.

He only cared about cultivation and nothing else.

In the past few years, Roda would occasionally appear in Archean City, showing his face.

However, in the last decade, Roda had rarely been seen in public.

In fact, in the past three years, no one in the city had seen any trace of Roda. It was rumored that he might have died deep within the Hundred Thousand Mountains!

Due to Roda’s strength, the Heaven Saber Gang and the Divine Dao Gang initially avoided discussing this matter.

However, now the three-year deadline was up.

The higher-ups of the Heaven Saber Gang and the Divine Dao Gang were naturally tempted and coveted the position!

At the headquarters of the Heaven Saber Gang.

The gang leader, Jing Yi, was drinking tea and playing chess with his son, Jing Cong.

But neither of them had their minds on the chessboard.

It was not until the end of the round that the young Jing Cong was the first to lose his cool and asked, “Father, I don’t understand.”

Jing Yi asked calmly, “What don’t you understand?”

“I don’t understand why you fabricated a lie about the Flame Clan’s ruins, Father!”

“For these groundless Flame Clan ruins, our Heavenly Saber Gang spent a lot of time and effort. We even took out our trump card, the Great Scarlet Flame Saber!”

The Great Scarlet Flame Saber was a Spirit Realm Source Power Skill. It was a secret technique of the Heaven Saber Gang.

There was a hint of questioning in Jing Cong’s tone, but Jing Yi did not get angry.

He merely asked in a strange tone, “How do you know that the matter of theFlame Clan’s ruins is baseless?”

Jing Cong opened his mouth and was about to say that because of this series of news, he had been asked to do a series of things. However, he saw Jing Yi smile and wave his hand.

This made Jing Cong not say anything else.

Jing Yi was at level nine of the Physique Realm. Most importantly, he was as cunning as a fox.

Ever since he took over, the Heaven Saber Gang had defeated the Divine Dao Gang several times under his lead. Now, they had already vaguely suppressed the Divine Dao Gang and became the number one faction in Archean City, under the rule of City Lord Roda.

The atmosphere changed and became somewhat silent.

Until Jing Yi spoke again, “How many people have probably entered the Hundred Thousand Mountains?”

Jing Cong replied in a subdued tone, “No less than a hundred thousand.”

Jing Yi pondered for a moment and said, “In that case, it’s probably enough…”

Looking at his son’s confused expression, Jing Yi smiled, but a cunning glint flashed across his eyes.

He continued, “City Lord Roda has been missing for three years without a trace. This has caused unrest within Archean City, and we have been in constant conflict with the Divine Dao Gang!”

“If I want to sit on the throne of the City Lord or break through to the Spirit Realm to suppress the Divine Dao Gang— the tribulation to reach the Spirit Realm is incredibly difficult!”

“So, I can only seek an alternative, forcibly drive the Divine Dao Gang out of Archean City using the power of our faction!”

However, the strengths of both sides were evenly matched…

Jing Cong listened as Jing Yi added, “A few months ago, I encountered a merchant of the Undead Clan and bought from him a secret technique of the Undead Clan.”

“This secret technique can turn living creatures into zombies and make them obey my commands!”

Jing Cong grew increasingly astonished as he listened, until Jing Yi smiled and said, “If our Heaven Saber Gang has an additional hundred thousand Undead Soldiers, wouldn’t it be a breeze to go to war against the Divine Dao Gang?”

Upon hearing this, Jing Cong immediately looked at his father with admiration.

“Father, you’re truly a genius!”

This made Jing Yi laugh heartily and wave his hand.

“Go do your work.”

As Jing Cong obediently left, little did he know that Jing Yi was watching his retreating figure with a faint smile, and there seemed to be a different charm in his smile..
