The Sword God of the Universe

Chapter 1072: Chapter 1072 The General Director’s Son

The region at the northwest border of Luojiu City is generally relatively impoverished. Large divine crystal veins are very rare here.

Otherwise, how could the Black Water Tribe, with only a One-star True God overseeing it, dominate this area? The Black Water Tribe in the Luojiu City wilderness is only somewhat known, but far from being a top tribe.

So when Chang Yan lost his composure and mentioned the newly discovered large divine crystal vein, Xiao Tian suddenly took it seriously and inquired about the crystal reserve of the vein.

”The exact reserves cannot be determined yet. However, based on the information I received, the value of this divine crystal vein is definitely no less than ten billion divine crystals, likely more.” Chang Yan said.

If the reserve exceeds ten billion divine crystals, it can indeed be considered a large divine crystal vein.

Hearing the number reported by Chang Yan, Xiao Tian’s entire aura slightly condensed, a gleam flashed in his eyes. He took a breath, pacing a bit anxiously in the room.

”Is this vein under the control of the Heavenly Origin Tribe?” Xiao Tian asked, holding his breath.

”Yes!”

”Chief, should we take action now? That’s a vein with reserves exceeding ten billion divine crystals. That little beast Jing Yan is only willing to hand over forty percent of the vein’s output to our Black Water Tribe and won’t let us interfere in the mining. If it were a regular vein, that would be one thing...” Chang Yan said gloomily.

If it were a regular vein, considering the face of the Luo Jiu Divine Palace, the Black Water Tribe would endure. But now, facing a vein with reserves exceeding ten billion divine crystals, the lure of wealth is irresistible!

”Are you sure there’s really a ten billion divine crystal reserve?” Xiao Tian confirmed again.

”No doubt, definitely over ten billion, possibly even reaching twenty billion. Currently, the Heavenly Origin Tribe is continuously buying slaves from the slave market to use as miners. I’ve seen it myself, and now the vein is bustling, with a large amount of divine crystals being mined.” Chang Yan said.

”Looks like something needs to be done.”

”I’ll make a contact! If we can seize this vein, it will be very advantageous for our Black Water Tribe.” Xiao Tian said, taking out his Communication Crystal Stone.

A message was sent to the Luo Jiu Divine Palace.

In the Sixth Palace of Luo Jiu Divine Palace, a young-looking male martial artist in a green robe was in a lavishly decorated room. A seductive female martial artist was sitting on his lap.

Sensing the unusual activity of the Communication Crystal Stone, the male martial artist’s face instantly darkened.

”Which bastard dares to interrupt my enjoyment at this time!” the male martial artist cursed intensely displeased.

”Brother Hua, don’t be like that!” the seductive woman coquettishly whined.

This seductive woman, with a Martial Arts Cultivation, was also at the One-star True God level. Yet, in front of the golden-robed male martial artist, she seemed like just a maid.

The golden-robed male martial artist, named Yin Hua, was also a martial artist at the True God level. However, he had an extremely revered status: he was the son of the Sky Wolf Department Director.

”Hold on, let me see which bastard is messaging me at this time.” Yin Hua gently patted the seductive woman’s thigh before taking out the Communication Crystal Stone.

”Xiao Tian? Is this bastard looking for trouble? Hmph, if he doesn’t give me a satisfying reason, I’ll destroy his Black Water Tribe.” Yin Hua sneered coldly, promptly replying to Xiao Tian with a message.

”Young Master Hua, did I disturb you?” Soon, the Communication Crystal Stone transmitted Xiao Tian’s fawning voice.

”What do you think?” Yin Hua’s voice carried a chill.

In the Black Water Tribe, Xiao Tian’s body trembled slightly, quickly laughing apologetically.

”What do you want? Quickly spill it!” Yin Hua asked impatiently.

”It’s like this...” Xiao Tian dared not pique curiosity, promptly informing Yin Hua about the large divine crystal vein matter.

Yin Hua’s expression shifted slightly, patting the seductive woman to stand up.

”Are you sure the reserves exceed ten billion?” Yin Hua’s tone noticeably took on a serious note.

”One hundred percent sure.” Xiao Tian immediately responded.

”Hmph, then what are you waiting for? Seize control, do I need to teach you?” Yin Hua barked.

”Young Master Hua, it’s not that I don’t want to do it, but we have a hurdle now. There’s someone named Jing Yan in the Fourth Palace Green Wood Department of the Luo Jiu Divine Palace, have you heard of him?” Xiao Tian replied with a wry smile.

”Jing Yan? That name... sounds familiar!” Yin Hua furrowed his brows, feeling he had heard this name somewhere.

”Brother Hua, I know this Jing Yan from the Fourth Palace Green Wood Department, he’s a newly emerging genius martial artist of our Luo Jiu Divine Palace. I heard he’s a native, hasn’t been in the God Realm long.” The seductive woman interjected.

When the seductive woman mentioned it, Yin Hua suddenly remembered.

Jing Yan’s fame in the Luo Jiu Divine Palace was indeed quite significant. Even someone of Yin Hua’s status had heard of this name.

”I know this Jing Yan, so what?” Yin Hua replied to the message.

”Young Master Hua, our current hurdle is this Jing Yan. That large vein is currently under the Heavenly Origin Tribe’s control, and this Jing Yan is the leader of the Heavenly Origin Tribe. Young Master Hua, you wouldn’t believe how arrogant this guy is, he doesn’t care about the Black Water Tribe at all.”

”I know this person is somewhat special in the Luo Jiu Divine Palace, so I haven’t dared to easily break ties, fearing major troubles. I had no choice but to bother you, Young Master Hua.” Xiao Tian conveyed continuously.

Xiao Tian himself didn’t dare rashly act against Jing Yan. But if Yin Hua dealt with Jing Yan, it wouldn’t be a big deal. Xiao Tian believed that for a vein with over ten billion divine crystal reserves, how could Yin Hua be willing to watch others grab this big piece?

As long as Yin Hua was moved and supported the Black Water Tribe against Jing Yan, there would be no issue.

Of course, once the Black Water Tribe seized the vein, at least half of the benefits gained had to be given to Yin Hua.

”This Jing Yan is indeed a bit tricky.” Yin Hua communicated, ”Someone in the Jidao Palace is watching him.”

”Young Master Hua, what do you mean?” Xiao Tian’s heart sank slightly; this Jing Yan was indeed out of the ordinary, even Yin Hua seemed to have some apprehensions towards him.

”Hmph, what else could I mean? Just seize it! Of course, you can’t kill this Jing Yan; if he dies, it’ll be a significant problem. As long as he remains alive, there’s no trouble.” Yin Hua’s eyes twinkled with malice.

”Young Master Hua, I understand, I’ll make arrangements to act.” With Yin Hua’s words, Xiao Tian had no more worries.

With Yin Hua supporting him, what fear would he have of a mere Jing Yan? Seize his vein, so what? If that brat dared to make trouble, a beating would suffice. As long as his life wasn’t taken, Young Master Hua could handle the matter.

Xiao Tian ended the communication with Yin Hua, eyes burning with fervor.
