"Zhao Tiehu is back? Hiss … Be gentle! "
The Golden Leaf Inn was the property of the Ye Family. In one of the rooms, Ye Jianxiao was being bandaged by a subordinate.
"Yes, Young Master. Last night, I saw Zhao Tiehu leading the Iron Tiger Sect's elites back. Their treasure ship is still docked at the North River Pier," a Ye Family martial artist reported.
Ye Jianxiao's expression was uncertain as he pondered.
The battle with the Shi Family lasted less than fifteen minutes. After all, the conflict was too sudden, and neither side was prepared.
The Ye Family had too few people, so they immediately retreated when they saw that the situation was bad. The Shi Family didn't pursue and attack. Both sides had their concerns, so they just said some harsh words to each other and ended the matter hastily.
But things wouldn't end just like that. The enmity between the two families had already been formed, and it would depend on their own methods in the future.
In the chaotic battle, Ye Jianxiao was hit on the shoulder by a Black Snakes sect martial artist at the fifth level of the Spirit Physique Level Five. He suffered some external injuries, which made him very angry.
What made him even angrier was that he actually lost two treasure chests in the chaos!
These betrothal gifts were all from the Ye Family's account. Now that the marriage wasn't completed, and he lost a part of it, he would have to pay for it from his own pocket in the future!
The door opened, and Ye Jianzhong walked in. He cupped his hands and said, "Young Master, another chest of betrothal gifts has been found, but the other chest hasn't been found yet."
"What's in the chest that hasn't been found yet?" Ye Jianxiao quickly asked.
"It's … vitality stones." Ye Jianzhong didn't dare to look at Ye Jianxiao's eyes.
Pa!
Ye Jianxiao's face was twisted with anger. He crushed the armrest of the chair and roared angrily, "Damn it! Poor mountains and turbulent rivers indeed have unruly people! A small Fish Dragon Town dares to touch our Ye Family's things, they don't know what's good for them! If I find out who did it, I won't forgive them! "
Ye Jianzhong continued, "Young Master, someone saw King Blackfish's son, Ling Feiyu, hiding under the carriage in the chaos. Then, the carriage was startled and rushed into the alley. At the same time, a mysterious person wearing a bamboo hat chased after the carriage. When our men caught up, the person and the chest were already gone. "
"The son of King Blackfish?" Ling Feiyu narrowed her eyes and snorted. "He's just King Blackfish. Does he really have the guts to go against the Ye family? First, send someone to give them a warning and make them hand over the Origin Stones. If they don't know what's good for them, then let them bear the consequences themselves! "
"Yes!" Ye Jianzhong bowed and left.
"Wait!"
Ye Jianxiao stopped Ye Jianzhong and said in a deep voice, "Zhao Tiehu has already returned. Prepare yourself, we'll make a move tonight!"
Ye Jianzhong frowned and said, "Young Master, isn't it too hasty? We just started a feud with the Black Snakes sect today. If we attack the Iron Tiger sect now, won't Shi Longhai cause more trouble? "
Ye Jianxiao raised his sword-like eyebrows and said resolutely, "It's precisely because we've become enemies with the Black Snakes sect that we have to act quickly. The longer we delay, the more disadvantageous it will be for us!
Before the Black Snakes sect can react, we'll attack the Iron Tiger sect with lightning speed, capture Zhao Tiehu, and quickly leave Fish Dragon Town after obtaining the Iron Fan Token!
Fish Dragon Town is the Shi family's base, so it won't be easy to attack them. But once we reach the river, hmph, let's see how I'll play them to death! "
"Young Master is wise! This subordinate obeys! "Ye Jianzhong said respectfully.
After returning home, Lin Xuan instructed the Lin family's disciples on the training field for a while, then hurriedly went to the underground training room.
This time, he had learned his lesson. He locked the iron door at the entrance, then carefully searched the entire training room. After making sure that there were no uninvited guests like Mu Qingxue, he began to count the day's gains.
Clang!
The big iron chest fell to the ground.
Lin Xuan broke the lock and opened the lid. In an instant, a bright object reflected the light, almost blinding his eyes.
"Hiss …"
Lin Xuan could not help but suck in a breath of cold air. His eyes flashed with a rich light of greed. The box was filled with neatly arranged primordial stones. With a rough count, there were about five to six thousand primordial stones!
"I didn't expect the Ye family to be so rich! Just one chest, and there are so many vitality stones! "
"With these vitality stones, it's enough for me to improve my strength in a short period of time and gain a firm foothold in Fish Dragon Town!"
Lin Xuan looked at the huge amount of vitality stones in front of him, his heart pounding with excitement.
Not long ago, he was still carefully calculating for a few dozen vitality stones. But now, he had a few thousand vitality stones in his hands, and he could use them freely.
However, he was only excited for a while, and he quickly calmed down.
Six thousand vitality stones seemed like a lot, but when he thought about the high prices of the artifacts and elixirs in the Ling-Bao Pavilion, it did not seem like a lot.
And this money could not be used openly. At least, before Ye Jianxiao left Fish Dragon Town, he had to keep a low profile.
He then checked Ling Feiyu's storage ring.
Compared to the huge gain of six thousand vitality stones, Ling Feiyu's wealth was a little shabby. His ring was only two square meters in size.
Other than the three hundred vitality stones, the most she had was some colorful women's underwear. It seemed that Ling Feiyu was a collector with a special hobby. Unfortunately, these things were not worth much.
But this storage ring alone was worth six to seven hundred vitality stones. In total, he had obtained more than a thousand vitality stones.
"Killing and looting make one rich. This saying makes sense. But it's fine to do this occasionally, but it's definitely not a long-term solution. I have to stay true to my heart."
Lin Xuan laughed at himself, and then a trace of determination flashed across his face.
In the past three years, he had not ignored the outside world and was only a human target.
On the contrary, when he was not working, he would often use the experience of two lifetimes to look at the path of cultivation of this world's martial artists.
He discovered that true powerhouses rarely relied on the path of plundering to reach the peak of the Martial Dao.
As the old saying goes, if you walk in the dark too often, you will eventually meet a ghost.
Plundering was not a business without capital. It required one to gamble with one's life. A person might succeed three to five times, or even ten times, or even a hundred times. But as long as one failed, they would be completely finished.
And if one wanted to go further on the path of martial arts, they had to learn how to manage their own martial arts.
Cultivating oneself and raising one's cultivation level while managing one's forces and businesses to obtain an endless supply of cultivation resources was the most reliable way to cultivate.
It was also because of this that there were so many gangs and forces on both sides of the Black Water River.
Thinking back on his cultivation journey for more than a month, Lin Xuan realized that he had experienced at least three life and death battles, and encountered all kinds of dangerous situations no less than ten times.
This might be unavoidable at the beginning of cultivation. But in the future, Lin Xuan decided to avoid such situations as much as possible.
Unfortunately, whether it was Shen Jianchuan, Fatty, or Lin Fan, Lin Hu, and the others, their cultivation levels were too low and could not help him. And Zhao Kun had to go undercover in the Iron Tiger Gang, so he could not leave in a short time.
