My Fury Will Burn The Heavens Chapter 705 - Selling Thunder Stones

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

"Big business! 100 million merits in two years?"

Jiang Yi's body shuddered. Someone of Big Sister Bell's status naturally wouldn't be giving false information, which meant that this was the real deal.

Merits were hard to obtain. A hundred million merits meant 100 million thunder stones. Even if Jiang Yi was to collect all the thunder stones in the thunder ridges, it would probably amount to over 100,000 thousand.

A single thunder mountain would erupt with a few thousand thunder stones, but most of them were collected by the subordinates while he could only get a 10% cut. It would mean that he could get 500 thunder stones in a single day, 15,000 in a month… close to 200,000 in a year. In order to obtain 100 million thunder stones, he would need to rule over Sky Thunder City for more than 500 years.

Human experts had very long lifespans, but Jiang Yi didn't know how long he could live for. Even if he could, how long could he live for? Even if he could acc.u.mulate so many merits to enter the G.o.ds Bestow Island, would Su Ruoxue still be alive after 500 years? What meaning would there be for him to go to the East Imperial Continent?

Of course, this was just a casual calculation. The thunder ridges had been constantly struck by thunderbolts for many years, and no one knew the exact number of thunder stones in there. Even if he was to finish collecting all the thunder stones, he would still be able to collect more in the future. Right now, Niu Deng had also occupied one of the thunder stones, which would further increase his thunder stone income. However, no matter what, it was still impossible to collect 100 million thunder stones in a century.

Jiang Yi originally just thought about it as it was already good enough to enter the G.o.ds Bestow Island with one million merits. Residing in G.o.ds Bestow City was just a dream!

However, right now…

Big Sister Bell said that she could help him get 100 million merits in two years. If this wasn't said by Big Sister Bell, Jiang Yi would already have given a slap and asked her to wake up.

Jiang Yi swallowed his saliva and forced himself to calm down gradually. He looked at Big Sister Bell with radiating eyes and said, "Big Sister, say it. As long as I don't have to sell my sons and daughters, I will do anything…"

"Pfff!"

Big Sister Bell was amused by Jiang Yi and was laughing heartily and so violently that her b.r.e.a.s.t.s were like surging waves, causing that string of bells to jingle non-stop. She reached out her hand and hammered on Jiang Yi's shoulder twice and said, "You bad egg, are you trying to make your Big Sister laugh to death? Hahaha!"

"Hehe!"

Jiang Yi laughed foolishly for a moment and asked with a serious tone, "Big Sister, say it then. How dangerous is this big business?"

"En."

Big Sister Bell gasped twice to stop laughing and sent a look at Jiang Yi. She struck out a stream of light to activate the barrier and scouted with her divine senses before speaking, "The higher the profits, the higher the risk. If this matter is exposed, you will suffer an all-out pursuit by the Lu Clan; and you will no longer be able to stay in the G.o.ds Bestow Tribe. Furthermore, if they were to activate the Nine Dragons' G.o.d-Extinguis.h.i.+ng Array, you wouldn't even be able to escape and would have to wait for your death."

"Uh!"

Jiang Yi's expression turned heavy as he had already expected that this matter was going to be dangerous, but he didn't expect it to be so such an outrageous degree. The Lu Clan was a giant, and in the G.o.ds Bestow Tribe, they were of no difference when compared to the Nine Thearchs Clans. A mere Sky Thunder Island already had two overseeing Heaven Monarchs from the Lu Clan. The White Dragon City definitely had an existence that was absolute close to a G.o.d. If they were to activate the Nine Dragons' G.o.d-Extinguis.h.i.+ng Array, Jiang Yi wouldn't be able to escape and could only wait for death obediently.

There was no such thing as a free meal in this world.

Jiang Yi quickly calmed down and asked in a deep voice, "Big Sister Bell, what exactly do I have to do? Kill? Smuggle goods? Commit arson? Or to sneak into the East Imperial Continent to kidnap a princess from the Nine Thearchs Clans?"

"Pfff!"

Big Sister Bell was amused again. She sent an angered look at Jiang Yi and said, "We are discussing something serious. Can you behave properly?"

Jiang Yi nodded and pulled Big Sister Bell's hand to one side before getting her to sit and pouring her a cup of tea. He poured himself a cup of tea before sitting by the side and waited for Big Sister Bell's explanation.

"For this matter, you do not have to kill or commit arson. In fact, as long as this matter isn't exposed, you will have no risk. Of course… if this matter was exposed, you will have to bear all the consequences!"

Finis.h.i.+ng her words, Big Sister Bell took a sip of tea and spoke softly, "It is actually a simple matter. That is… secretly selling thunder stones!"

"Selling thunder stones?"

Jiang Yi s.h.i.+vered as he vaguely understood. Selling thunder stones would allow him to earn a large number of celestial stones which could be used to buy merits. The Sky Thunder Island belonged to the Lu Clan, and the thunder stones naturally belonged to the Lu Clan as well. If the Lu Clan got to know about this, the upper echelons of the Lu Clan would definitely be infuriated; and Jiang Yi would be pursued until his death.

However, who was he going to sell the thunder stones to? How much celestial stones would the thunder stones be worth? A single thunder stone could be exchanged for one point of merit. In other words, one merit would require 1000 celestial stones. 100 million merits would mean 100 million thunder stones. Wouldn't that mean 100 billion celestial stones?

"Something isn't right… Big Sister Bell!"

He knitted his brows and asked with doubts, "If I want to obtain 100 million merits, I will need 100 billion celestial stones, right? Wouldn't I have to sell 100 million thunder stones? How am I going to get so many thunder stones in two years?"

"Silly fool!"

Big Sister Bell knocked on Jiang Yi's head and spoke speechlessly, "If you are to exchange for merits at the city lord residence, you will certainly need 1000 celestial stones. How could the Lu Clan not try to cheat you when you look for them to exchange for merits? In fact… the tribe's black market's merits are very cheap. Ten celestial stones would get you one point of merit. So you just need to earn one billion celestial stones will do."

Jiang Yi rubbed his nose and asked as he still couldn't understand, "Even if so, I still would have to sell plenty of thunder stones? Furthermore, if I was to go and sell the thunder stones, the price wouldn't be at 1000 celestial stones, right? The things on the black market are cheaper, isn't it?"

"You are wrong…"

Big Sister Bell shook her head and said, "There is no selling of thunder stones in the black market. If anyone dares to sell thunder stones in the G.o.ds Bestow Tribe, they will definitely die when discovered! After all, these things belong to the Lu Clan, and if anyone was to report, all the clans would step in to investigate…"

"No selling on the black market? Then who am I going to sell the thunder stones to?"

Jiang Yi was confused as his mind suddenly flashed with an idea. He exclaimed, "Could it be to sell them to the people over there?"

"That's right. Sell them to the merchants on the East Imperial Continent. Furthermore, a single thunder stone could be sold for… 5000 celestial stones!"

Big Sister Bell nodded solemnly and said, "Now do you understand how serious this matter is? Secretly selling thunder stones is already a sin punishable by death, but to collude with the people on the East Imperial Continent? If this matter was discovered, the 13 Clans would all chase you down! Once they activate the Nine Dragons' G.o.d-Extinguis.h.i.+ng Array, you would still have to die even if your strength was limitlessly close to the G.o.ds…"

"Hehe, I understand!"

Not only was Jiang Yi not afraid, but his eyes were also glowing with brilliance. He looked around and suddenly lowered his voice. "Big Sister Bell, for this business… the City Lord is involved in it, right?"

"Shus.h.!.+"

Big Sister Bell reached out one finger to press on Jiang Yi's lips and spoke in a serious tone, "Remember, this matter has nothing to do with the city lord. The one who is taking care of you in the city lord residence is Commander Lu Feng. The only one you communicated from start to finish is also Commander Lu Feng. Even if you are exposed and caught, you must insist that it was Commander Lu Feng. Understand?"

"Yes, yes!"

Jiang Yi grinned. Commander Lu Feng? Who were they trying to cheat?

If the city lord didn't give the approval, who would dare to sell thunder stones in such a large scale? A tiny commander would die without knowing what happened. Jiang Yi even suspected that all the other commanders were also involved in this. At least, they were given some compensation. For Commander Lu Di and Lu Han to be suddenly transferred away, it was probably because the City Lord was making arrangements behind the scenes.

Jiang Yi then inquired some more things to Big Sister Bell and quickly arranged his thoughts while he understood the reasons why he was involved in such a big business.

He mulled over it for 15 minutes before gritting his teeth and saying, "G.o.d d.a.m.n it! Humans die for wealth, and birds die for food! In order to enter G.o.ds Bestow City to cultivate, I will do it!"
