The Sword God of the Universe-Chapter 1069 Somewhat Naive

Turning over seventy percent, the Black Water Tribe wouldn’t possibly accept that.

In the northwest border, there are at least a hundred tribes like the Yushu Tribe that pay protection fees to the Black Water Tribe. The mining output ratio given by these tribes is basically set at eighty percent, so how could it easily change? If the Heavenly Origin Tribe pays less, the other tribes would surely be dissatisfied.

Moreover, this Jing Yan says they discovered a large Divine Crystal Vein and will mine a large amount of Divine Crystals. In that case, it’s even more impossible to easily change the collection ratio.

Chang Yan slightly raised the corners of his mouth, sneering in his heart. This Jing Yan, perhaps he is relying on his identity as a member of the Fourth Palace of the Luo Jiu Divine Palace, thinking the Black Water Tribe would show him some respect?

How naive!

"The Heavenly Origin Tribe, turning over thirty percent of ore vein revenue to the Black Water Tribe?" Chang Yan smiled at Jing Yan.

He repeated it just to see if Jing Yan made a slip of the tongue.

"That’s right, the Heavenly Origin Tribe will turn over thirty percent of ore vein production to the Black Water Tribe. I think that’s acceptable. A higher ratio would be burdensome. After all, the Heavenly Origin Tribe also has more than a thousand brothers." Jing Yan said with certainty.

This time, Chang Yan’s expression truly turned contemplative.

He stared at Jing Yan intently.

This Jing Yan, how audacious is he? On what basis does he have such confidence and guts?

Want to challenge the Black Water Tribe?

"Leader Jing Yan, it seems... you’re not very sincere!" Chang Yan’s voice was low, with a hint of coldness.

"Chang Yan Think Tank, my sincerity is already considerable. Now, I am the leader of the Heavenly Origin Tribe. I am willing to turn over thirty percent of the tribe’s ore vein income to the Black Water Tribe, as a show of respect to the Black Water Tribe and to Leader Xiao Tian." Jing Yan still smiled.

"It seems that this matter can’t be negotiated. Leader Jing Yan, how much do you know about the Black Water Tribe? Leader Xiao Tian’s temper is not very good. If the Heavenly Origin Tribe insists on proceeding like this, it may become impossible to scrape by in this region in the future. Leader Jing Yan, you should think clearly!" Chang Yan said with a cold smile.

"Is Think Tank Chang Yan trying to threaten me?" Jing Yan laughed.

"Alright!"

"Forty percent! At most we’ll turn over forty percent of the ore vein revenue. That’s my bottom line. Nothing more needs to be said. If Think Tank Chang Yan can’t decide, then discuss it with Leader Xiao Tian. When you have a result, send someone to the Heavenly Origin Tribe to give me the message."

"Then I won’t disturb you any longer, farewell!" Jing Yan stood up and walked out.

Chang Yan remained seated and did not see Jing Yan off. He watched coldly as Jing Yan’s figure disappeared through the doorway. The chill in his eyes grew increasingly intense and icy.

Chang Yan didn’t plan to detain Jing Yan; not because he hadn’t thought of it, but because Jing Yan’s identity in the Luo Jiu Divine Palace made him apprehensive. If Jing Yan wasn’t a member of the Luo Jiu Divine Palace, just based on what he said today, he certainly wouldn’t let him leave the Black Water Tribe alive.

Many people would know about Jing Yan’s visit to the Black Water Tribe. If Jing Yan died there, how could they explain it to the Luo Jiu Divine Palace? Even if they could resolve the matter, it would require a great deal of resources. The identity of a member of the Fourth Palace of the Luo Jiu Divine Palace is not something to be overlooked.

"Humph! Ignorant brat!" After sitting in the reception room for a moment, Chang Yan stood up and cursed darkly, then walked out.

In front of Leader Xiao Tian.

"Hahaha... quite interesting indeed!" Xiao Tian laughed loudly after hearing Chang Yan’s report.

"Chang Yan Think Tank, where do you think this kid gets the confidence to challenge my Black Water Tribe? Is he a reckless youngster? Or does he truly have such a big background that our Black Water Tribe dares not act rashly?" Xiao Tian laughed, but the killing intent in his eyes had already boiled over.

"Leader, let’s not act for now. Finding out the truth isn’t difficult. All you need to do, Leader, is contact someone in the Luo Jiu Divine Palace and inquire. If this kid has no powerful background, it won’t be too late to act then." Chang Yan said, squinting his eyes.

The Black Water Tribe naturally also has connections within the Luo Jiu Divine Palace.

"The Think Tank is right, I’ll inquire." Xiao Tian nodded.

Jing Yan truly infuriated Xiao Tian, who wanted to kill him. However, there was no rush to kill Jing Yan right away. First, determining if Jing Yan indeed had a powerful background and support in the Luo Jiu Divine Palace, before deciding how to handle him, was not too late.

Immediately, Xiao Tian took out his Communication Crystal Stone and contacted an associate in the Luo Jiu Divine Palace for inquiries.

After a brief exchange, Xiao Tian’s expression became even more sullen.

"Leader, what did they say?" Seeing Xiao Tian’s expression, Chang Yan was uncertain and thus asked.

"This Jing Yan is an aboriginal from a low-class world." Xiao Tian said.

"An aboriginal? A mere aboriginal dares to be so arrogant? Even if he ascends to the Fourth Palace, so what? He’s really courting death!" Chang Yan was also surprised to hear Jing Yan was just an aboriginal, then immediately sneered.

"This aboriginal is somewhat extraordinary."

"He ascended from a low-class world to the God Realm and joined the Luo Jiu Divine Palace in just over a decade." Xiao Tian said, taking a deep breath.

"Only ascended a decade ago?"

"How...how is that possible? An aboriginal, merely ascended for a little over a decade, how could he rise to the Fourth Palace? To advance into the Fourth Palace, one must at least have a Void God level of cultivation, right?" Chang Yan was quite astonished.

"That’s why I said he’s extraordinary."

"This little brat, while having no special background, possesses incredibly astonishing Martial Arts Talent. According to information from the Luo Jiu Divine Palace, some high-level figures are paying attention to his potential, believing that he might become a True God in the future." Xiao Tian said with a reluctant tone.

"Become a True God?"

"Haha, becoming a True God is not so easily achieved! Even within powers like the Luo Jiu Divine Palace, how many True Gods are there? Throughout the Divine Domain, those who achieve the level of Nine Stars over ten thousand years appear from time to time. Yet how many actually reach True God in the end?" Chang Yan remarked dismissively.

Achieving True God status is exceedingly difficult, indeed. Even top Martial Arts Geniuses often get stuck at the Nine-Star Void God Level. To cross over to True God Level requires not only talent but also opportunity. Talent without opportunity won’t overcome that celestial barrier.

That’s why Chang Yan was skeptical.

"This Jing Yan, ranked sixty-eighth on the Celestial List, and he hasn’t even reached two hundred years old." Xiao Tian shook his head, "Looks like this time, our Black Water Tribe will really have to swallow our pride!"
