CHAPTER 35: CHAPTER 35: A SPIRIT STONE VEIN

The clan contribution points on the panel changed from zero to thirty.

However, Fu Changsheng’s face showed no sign of joy. Upon seeing his troubled expression, Fu Changren quickly stepped forward and asked a few questions. Fu Changsheng hesitated for a moment before revealing the assassination attempt he had encountered.

Upon hearing this, Fu Changren was filled with fear:

"Patriarch, do you know who tried to assassinate you?"

"The person who attempted to assassinate me had the totem of the Celestial Dragon Tribe engraved on their back, so it must have been someone sent by the Celestial Dragon Tribe."

Hearing that it was the work of the Celestial Dragon Tribe again.

Fu Changren was both angry and enraged:

"The Celestial Dragon Tribe seems to have their eyes on us and will not stop until one of us is dead!"

If they weren’t so weak, he would have already rushed to the Eastern Wilderness with a sword.

Fu Changsheng also felt that having an enemy constantly watching him was like a thorn in his side. He originally thought of waiting until he was stronger to take revenge on the Celestial Dragon Tribe, but if they kept sending people to assassinate him, even though he had many means to protect himself, his big brother and the others didn’t even have a single magical artifact.

The Celestial Dragon Tribe must be destroyed.

This can’t wait any longer.

Fu Changsheng took a deep breath:

"Big brother, inform the third brother and the others not to go out if it can be avoided in the near future."

"Patriarch, you must be careful too."

Fu Changsheng took out the Bailing Fish, and his big brother, Fu Changren, was momentarily stunned. Then the gloomy expression on his face finally faded, and he said joyfully:

"The Patriarch indeed has great blessings, to be able to catch even the Bailing Fish."

With these two fish.

After a few years of breeding.

The Fu Family will have an endless supply of Bailing Fish, which can be continually supplied to the marketplace. This is certainly a lucrative business.

Fu Changsheng gave a few more instructions, then got up and returned to the secret chamber where he took out his spoils. At that moment, a familiar sound suddenly echoed in his mind:

"Ding"

"You’ve provided the clan with a pair of Bailing Fish, earning twenty clan contribution points."

On the panel.

His clan contribution points had just accumulated enough to exchange for a random draw.

But this time, Fu Changsheng did not choose to draw a lottery but planned to exchange it all for intelligence in one go.

Now, to eradicate the Celestial Dragon Tribe, he could only rely on the intelligence system to provide useful information. Only then could he strategize from within.

He took a deep breath.

At once, he had no interest in viewing his spoils, and instead directly said:

"Exchange intelligence."

Buzz!

A massive amount of yellow light surged on the panel.

Then, lines of text emerged:

[1: Boss Liu of Hundred Treasures Pavilion in Nanyang Marketplace is planning to sell his shop and move his family to Cyan Cloud Marketplace because his daughter was selected by the Cyan Cloud Sect.]

[2: In the Valley of Ten Thousand Flowers, at the junction of the Celestial Dragon Tribe and the Niuteng Tribe, a low-grade spirit stone vein is hidden.]

"Stop exchanging!"

Originally intending to exchange all of his contribution points at once, Fu Changsheng’s eyes slightly narrowed when he saw the second piece of intelligence, and as his mind raced, a smile he couldn’t suppress finally appeared at the corner of his mouth.

The spirit stone vein in the Valley of Ten Thousand Flowers, if utilized well by him, could be a fatal talisman for the Celestial Dragon Tribe.

If he remembered correctly.

He recalled Shangguan Hongyu mentioning to him last time.

The Niuteng Tribe and the Celestial Dragon Tribe, who lived adjacent, are like the Fu Family and the Li Family, old nemeses. Once the spirit stone vein is exposed.

The two tribes will definitely fight to the death.

When they are both severely injured.

He would report to the Shangguan Family.

With such a remarkably rich spirit stone vein, the Shangguan Family would stop at nothing to seize it, leaving no chance of survival for the Celestial Dragon Tribe.

The heavy burden on his heart was instantly lifted.

The next step was to make the Celestial Dragon Tribe discover the spirit stone vein first:

"It seems I have to make a trip to the Eastern Wilderness!"

For the sake of eradicating the cancer that is the Celestial Dragon Tribe.

A trip to the Eastern Wilderness is indeed worth it.

In high spirits, Fu Changsheng finally turned his attention to the spoils acquired from Yasang. Ten flying needles were Tier One High-Grade Spiritual Artifacts, and they were perfect for sneak attacks.

Fu Changsheng was quite satisfied.

Next, he opened an ancient book whose pages had turned yellow with age.

On the cover of the ancient book, the words "Dragon Transformation Technique" were prominently written.

At the sight of this name, Fu Changsheng immediately thought of the Water Dragon Yasang had used at the end. Had he not laid traps beforehand, under the Water Dragon’s assault, he would undoubtedly have perished:

"This must be a superior offensive magic."

Opening it up.

He found that it only contained the first level.

Fu Changsheng was taken aback:

"The Dragon Transformation Technique actually has a second level?!"

If the first level was this formidable, the second level was unimaginable.

Fu Changsheng felt a surge of excitement.

He planned to learn this Dragon Transformation Technique before heading to the Eastern Wilderness. It would be an additional means of protection for him.

But before that.

He needed to head to the marketplace to buy Boss Liu’s shop.

Currently, a hundred barrels of Recovery Spirit Wine brewed by the third brother are stored in the cellar. In addition, there are talismans refined by Molan recently, surplus magical artifacts that would be refined by Runzhi in the future, and the Bailing Fish, all of which can be sold in the shop, making it significantly important for the Fu Family to own a shop.

Especially considering that the third brother would continue to develop different formulas of spirit wine, establishing the Fu Family’s spirit wine brand would be an everlasting asset to future generations:

"However, where will the spirit stones to purchase the shop come from?"

Feeling a bit troubled, Fu Changsheng pondered.

After thinking for a while.

He said:

"Cyan Cloud Marketplace is much larger than our Nanyang Marketplace. Since Boss Liu is also planning to open another shop, I could pawn the Yani Gang Stone Ore Vein, Yanyang Wood, and spirit wine to him, which should roughly cover the cost of a shop when added up."

Having made up his mind, Fu Changsheng left the secret chamber.

At the same time, he copied the Dragon Transformation Technique and placed a copy in the clan’s storage room.

As he was about to head to the marketplace.

That familiar sound echoed in his mind:

"Ding"

"You’ve added a magic spell to the clan and earned twenty clan contribution points."

The number on the panel had increased from forty-six to sixty-six.

Fu Changsheng’s eyes lit up.

In this way.

He could not only have another draw but also exchange for eight pieces of intelligence.

Without any hesitation, he said:

"Redeem the draw!"

Buzz!

The panel trembled, gathering yellow light.

As the panel’s clan contribution points decreased to sixteen, a box appeared in his sleeve. Although it wasn’t his first time drawing a lottery, every time he obtained a prize and opened the box, he couldn’t help but feel expectant. Taking a deep breath, he opened the box, only to see twenty spirit stones neatly packed inside:

"This...."

Fu Changsheng was dumbfounded.

He never expected.

The prize this time would be twenty spirit stones.

"Huh?"

Just as Fu Changsheng was about to put the spirit stones into the storage bag, his eyes brightened. He quickly took one out from the box, and upon sensing the abundant spiritual qi within, his previously disappointed mood completely turned around.
