Chapter 893: Do You Know About God’s Grave?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

As the main person in charge of the General Commerce League’s franchise, Feng Guohai’s was a man with a prominent status. He was not someone whom anyone could simply meet at their own time and convenience.

The reason he had emerged so quickly this time was mainly due to the emergence of the so-called robbers of the century, the Raiders of All But God. He suspected that the pair were the culprits, thus, he had come out to meet them.

After all, the offered fortune was tempting. The loot was in possession of the Raiders of All But God. If they could be captured, it was definitely a significant amount of income to the local league. This statement was no exception for the main person in charge of the General Commerce League’s franchise.

What was better was that money would not even be needed if the goods were taken from these two men..

In spite of confirming that this pair was not the infamous duo, Feng Guohai was not disappointed in the slightest, because the value of the Ethereal Amethysts was far greater. It did not pale in comparison to the loot and could potentially be even more valuable.

Based purely on their value, the market price of a piece of Ethereal Amethyst was three thousand upper-class spiritual jade pieces in addition to being high in demand.

A sole piece of the purple crystal was already lofty in value. Furthermore, Yun Yang had stated explicitly that he had a few pieces of them. The total value would definitely be an exceptionally huge number. It was honestly hard to determine if the Raiders of All But God’s loot was worth more or less than this.

After all, the stolen possessions were only items of practitioners belonging in the Honors level and below, despite the large quantity and variety. If everything were to be summed up, it was difficult to imagine that the amount would be worth all that much.

Furthermore, Keeper Feng was more interested in the Ethereal Amethyst compared to the massive amount of loot. Even though the General Commerce League was a large organization, it did not have many pieces of Ethereal Amethyst in circulation.

To some extent, this man’s unexpected visit was akin to filling in the General Commerce League’s shortcomings; such gems were a force to be reckoned with, even if they were not sold immediately and were merely kept in the league.

Without giving himself away, Feng Guohai’s attitude took a big leap forward as he spoke amicably, “Brother Yun, don’t be off put by my serious words despite our fresh acquaintance. Even if our shop is not the best in terms of reputation in this realm, it’s still second to few. I’ll ask you without guile - how many do you have with you? I’ve heard that your brother took out quite a number the other day..”

Feng Guohai was friendly when he spoke, but the content, of his speech, was straight to the point, hinting that both sides were equally interested in this transaction and it was better to get to the crux quickly. Explicitly, it was like he was saying “Our shop won’t try to harm you just because you have such gems with you. You can state the number of goods and the deal can proceed as soon as possible. That would be for the best!”.

Yun Yang chuckled awkwardly.

“Of course I know about the General Commerce League’s reputation. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have come here right as I arrived in the black market. It’s just that.. I really do have plenty of these Ethereal Amethysts with me, but I wonder what sort of price would the General Commerce League offer.”

Feng Guohai sat up straighter immediately. The message in Yun Yang’s words was basically telling him “It’s up to how much money you fellows can offer”, thus meaning “I have an abundance of them!”

His reply was crucial.

Could this mean that the number of Ethereal Amethyst this youth had with him was much more than expected?

“Can I have a look at the goods first?”

Out of a businessman’s caution, Feng Guohai requested to have a glimpse of the Ethereal Amethysts.

The truth would be what the eyes could see. No matter how convincing Yun Yang sounded, a long-established buyer like Feng Guohai would never expose his intentions too early before actually seeing the item.

“Definitely. This is but a matter of course.”

With a flip of his wrist, four to five pieces of crystals which exuded violet energy appeared on his palm.

The spiritual Qi in the room increased and intensified abruptly as if simmering in a boiling pot.

Feng Guohai breathed in deeply and with a wave of his hand, a wave of mystical Qi spread and engulfed the room.

Shi Wuchen was stunned.

A quiver of Qi to cloak - the prison of heaven and earth!

This was a trick only Saint level masters could unleash, and it was the greatest distinction between cultivators of Saint level and above, and lower level cultivators.

In addition, watching how casually Keeper Feng executed the technique, it seemed like an insignificant action to him. It demonstrated the fact that he must be above the Saint level!

Yun Yang was inwardly startled as well, feeling an inexplicable wave of emotions surge through him.

It came as a surprise to him that even a franchise keeper of the General Commerce League was an expert like this as well.

The General Commerce League was indeed the top commerce association in the world!

Feng Guohai himself was not overly affected like it did not require any effort and was not worthy of mention. His gaze had already traveled to the Ethereal Amethysts on Yun Yang’s palm; his eyes were unblinking for a long time and finally, he inhaled deeply and commented in a rather shaky voice, “Exquisite treasure!”

He then looked up with a burning gaze and asked hungrily, “Are these all you have?”

There was a total of five pieces on Yun Yang’s palm now.

Yun Yang sighed and replied, “There are only ten pieces for now.”

Ten pieces!

This was already a surprising number - a large number, actually. After all, a piece of Ethereal Amethyst could supply a hundred years of cultivation to the cultivators. The total value of ten pieces was basically equivalent to that of the common schools that had the black Celestial Luck Banner!

However, Feng Guohai’s attention was focused on two other words - for now!

What did ‘There are only ten pieces for now’ mean?

Could there be more?

“What you mean by having only ten pieces for now..” the old man repeated softly, “I don’t quite understand that. May I ask what do you mean by that?”

“I mean that I can acquire more Ethereal Amethysts,” Yun Yang answered, cutting to the chase.

“You can acquire more Ethereal Amethysts?”

The reply was incredibly significant.

Feng Guohai sat up straight and said, “If what young brother says is true, do speak of whatever you need, and don’t be shy about it!”

At the same time, there was an extremely sharp glint that flashed across his orbs. Then, another sliver of reluctance flickered in his eyes.

A commerce league was a commerce league. A commerce league was not a bandit! They could not do lawless things, or else only celestial punishment awaited them.

Selling the treasures one has in his possession and selling the loot from robberies were opposing concepts. The latter was grounds for execution based on that factor once evidence was found, and the goods pocketed, while the former was protected from celestial punishment. They could not be compared to each other.

In spite of this, who could suppress the budding greed in the face of such overwhelming profit? The feeling of forcefully killing any budding thoughts was insufferable.

Yun Yang hesitated before he lowered his voice and asked, “Has Keeper Feng heard of God’s Grave?”

“Of course I have. Could it..” Feng Guohai replied, nodding after suppressing the waves of emotion that curled and crashed within him.

“Strictly speaking, it’s a long story. I’ve mentioned that I’ve just recently ascended to the Bound of Universe just now with the Ethereal Amethysts I have on me.. They came from an accident where I was pursued and was at the brink of death, bleeding profusely and wounded all over. I fell into a deep valley a hundred thousand feet deep. I thought I was going to die, but instead, I hovered in midair.”

Feng Guohai raised a single eyebrow as he questioned the story, “The God’s Grave?”
