The Sword God of the Universe-Chapter 1066: Fat Meat

Wang Chunlin and Xing Kong were not overwhelmed by the discovery of a rare large Divine Crystal Vein. Although they were excited, they were also clear-minded; they knew that relying solely on the strength of their two tribes would not be enough to safeguard this large Divine Crystal Vein.

The vein was indeed located within the territory controlled by the Yushu Tribe. Previously, the Yushu Tribe could assert control, but once the news of the Divine Crystal Vein spreads, could they still maintain that control?

Absolutely impossible!

Therefore, the two planned to involve Jing Yan, using Jing Yan’s strength to gain some benefits from the vein. While Jing Yan eats the meat, they would settle for the soup. The two tribes would only receive ten percent of the vein’s output resources, which might seem small, but considering the vein’s vast amount of Divine Crystals, even ten percent was enough to be exciting.

Jing Yan glanced at the two and contemplated before speaking, "Has the vein been surveyed? Approximately how many Divine Crystals are there?"

"It has been surveyed a few times, but the vein is truly vast, and the amount of Divine Crystals deep underground is hard to ascertain. However, the Divine Crystals already surveyed are worth over ten billion first-grade Divine Crystals." Xing Kong said slowly, holding his breath.

"Ten billion?" Upon hearing the figure, Jing Yan was indeed quite shaken.

Jing Yan knew that Xing Kong would not lie to deceive him. If Xing Kong dared to state the vein was worth ten billion Divine Crystals, it was unlikely to be extensively inaccurate.

If there are ten billion Divine Crystals, it’s certainly an immense fortune for Jing Yan. With ten billion Divine Crystals, Jing Yan would be able to reach the True God Level. Moreover, perhaps the Colorful Cloud Sword could upgrade to a High-Level Divine Artifact, and Level 4 Body Source Power could easily evolve to Level 5 Source Power.

With these thoughts, Jing Yan’s eyes brightened.

Such a huge piece of meat, how could one possibly abandon it without eating?

"Lord Jing Yan, although this vein is richly stored, extracting it is certainly not an overnight matter. Even if the Yushu Tribe and Heavenly Origin Tribe try their utmost to mine it, it would perhaps take hundreds of years to complete." Wang Chunlin remarked.

"I understand that." Jing Yan nodded, "It seems we need to find a way to increase the mining speed of the vein."

"Lord Jing Yan, there is another point." Wang Chunlin said hesitantly, "The majority of the resources from this large Divine Crystal Vein, we can’t keep."

"Can’t keep the majority? Why?" Jing Yan inquired.

"Our Yushu Tribe, above us, there’s another tribe called Black Water Tribe. This Black Water Tribe is also quite renowned in the Luojiu City Wilderness. The leader of the Black Water Tribe is a terrifying expert at the True God Level."

"In the past, from the resources we extracted from the veins we controlled, eighty percent had to be sent to the Black Water Tribe. Hence, this time, the newly discovered large Divine Crystal Vein’s output might still require sending eighty percent to them." Wang Chunlin said with a helpless expression.

"This is also something unavoidable. To survive in this wilderness, violating the rules today might mean being extinguished tomorrow." Wang Chunlin sighed.

Jing Yan furrowed his brows, "Since you need to send eighty percent of the output to the Black Water Tribe for safety, why contact me?"

"Lord Jing Yan, there’s something you might not know. This vein is too large, and I’m worried that even if we send eighty percent of the resources to the Black Water Tribe, it might not ensure safety. From my knowledge of the Black Water Tribe, they might directly take over the vein, leaving us with nothing, and might even extinguish us."

"We contacted you, Lord Jing Yan, hoping to make the Black Water Tribe compromise, still work according to the previous rules. Eighty percent of the vein goes to the Black Water Tribe, and we keep twenty percent ourselves. Of course, of this twenty percent, ninety percent would go to you, Lord Jing Yan, and the remaining ten would be split between myself and Leader Xing Kong." Wang Chunlin explained. freēnovelkiss.com

After Wang Chunlin finished speaking, the room fell silent.

Jing Yan, too, was contemplating.

After a while, Jing Yan spoke, "How strong is the Black Water Tribe overall?"

"The leader of the Black Water Tribe is a terrifying True God-level individual. Besides, within the Black Water Tribe, there are numerous elders at the Nine-star Void God Level. Altogether, the tribe has tens of thousands of members. In the wilderness of the Northwest Border of Luojiu City, no tribe can rival the Black Water Tribe." Wang Chunlin immediately replied.

"Hmm, they indeed seem pretty strong." Jing Yan nodded, "What is the specific realm of the Black Water Tribe’s leader?"

"It’s said to be a One Star True God." Wang Chunlin replied.

"A One Star True God, it’s worth negotiating with." Jing Yan smiled slightly.

Though he was just an Eighth Star Void God, his combat strength was on par with an ordinary One-star Void God. Plus, with his status from the Luo Jiu Divine Palace, negotiating with the Black Water Tribe on the division of the large vein should not be problematic.

However, if he represented the Heavenly Origin Tribe and Yushu Tribe to talk with the Black Water Tribe, he couldn’t do it casually; he needed a reason.

After contemplating briefly, Jing Yan spoke again.

"Leader Xing Kong, Leader Wang Chunlin, I have a suggestion for you to consider." Jing Yan looked at the two.

"Please go ahead, Lord Jing Yan." They both looked at Jing Yan.

"Here’s my proposal: Yushu Tribe and Heavenly Origin Tribe form into a single tribe, still named Heavenly Origin Tribe. I would be the leader of the tribe, while you two serve as deputy leaders. Of course, my role as the leader is nominal; management and other affairs of the tribe would remain under your charge, and I won’t interfere much." Jing Yan said slowly.

If he were to become the leader of the unified tribe, negotiating with the Black Water Tribe over the vein division would naturally be justified.

Xing Kong and Wang Chunlin were slightly taken aback by Jing Yan’s suggestion. They hadn’t considered merging the two tribes.

Especially Wang Chunlin, who was somewhat unwilling to accept. The newly formed tribe would still be named Heavenly Origin Tribe, which essentially meant that the Yushu Tribe would cease to exist.

Wang Chunlin’s expression turned slightly unpleasant, as he internally resisted the suggestion, yet dared not refuse Jing Yan.

"Leader Wang Chunlin, you don’t seem very agreeable?" Jing Yan chuckled.

"Well..." Wang Chunlin forced a smile.

"Actually, merging the two tribes and appointing me as the leader benefits you greatly. If I become the leader, negotiations with the Black Water Tribe would be justified. Furthermore, I don’t plan to send eighty percent of the vein’s resources to the Black Water Tribe. What I intend is to give at most fifty percent to them. The remaining fifty percent, I’ll only take eighty percent, and the New Tianyuan Tribe can keep twenty percent." Jing Yan said with a smile.
