Chapter 427A – Super Storm Flow

The curtain dropped on the gambling fight at Heavenwait Temple . Grandmaster Yao had ended up being the one smiling at the end, and Jiang Taishou had faded into ashes . The entire Black Demon Sect was filled with sorrow and mourning . According to those responsible for statistics, on this day, several dao companions and families became bankrupt and turned to enemies . As for lovers who broke up, the number was simply uncountable .

And the chief culprit of all of this was actually receiving the largest speculative gains of his life .

“Greetings, Grandmaster Yao . ” A fat middle-aged cultivator said with a smile, his face jubilant and pleasant . He lifted a jade box with his hands . “This is the winnings that grandmaster made from the betting ring . There are a total of 857,250,000 spirit stones . I made a decision on my own end to collect a full 860 million spirit stones for grandmaster . I ask grandmaster to please look through it . ”

Qin Yu’s heart leapt in his chest, a stunned expression on his face . Although he knew his gains would be incredible this time, he never thought it would be such a terrifying number .

A compensation rate of 1:5 . Even if it rose five times over again, it would still be far from reaching this number .

“Grandmaster Yao, is something wrong?” The fat cultivator tensed up, bitterly regretting that his expression of respect wasn’t enough and that Grandmaster Yao wasn’t happy enough with him . But, this was already the limits of his authority . If he wanted to show even greater sincerity, he would have to send a request to the higher ups .

Qin Yu regained his composure and waved his hand . “It’s not a problem . I was just thinking of something else . Since this is the case, I will accept it . ” Inside the jade box were nine pitch black cards . They were covered with runes that shimmered all over them and they released a mystical and majestic aura . This sort of spirit stone card was released by the Demonic Path and had absolute authority throughout the entirety of the Land of Divinity and Demons . It could be drawn out and used anywhere; it was the most convenient kind .

Looking through with his divine sense and seeing that there weren’t any problems with the amount of spirit stones, Qin Yu smiled . With this terrifying amount of spirit stones, it would be much easier to purchase high level monster beast souls and blood in the future .

The betting ring cultivator seemed simple and honest, but his thoughts were insightful and shrewd . He quickly said his goodbyes, “Grandmaster Yao, our trade is already cleared . If there is nothing else, I will excuse myself first . ”

“Be careful . ” Qin Yu played with the excellently crafted jade box for a moment and then placed it on a nearby table . “Tuba, come in . ”

Tuba walked in and fell to his knees . “Your Highness . ”

“Is this great amount of spirit stones because of you?”

“Yes, Your Highness . ”

“Where did they come from?”

Tuba said, “Your Highness knows that our titan tribe cannot use spirit stones . Through the many years we lived in the Infinite Realm, we slowly saved them up . The great priest bid me to bring them with me and give them to you in a time of need . Since there happened to be a betting ring this time, this subordinate acted on his own . I ask Your Highness for forgiveness . ”

Qin Yu smiled . “These spirit stones will indeed be useful to me in the future . I owe your titan tribe a favor . ”

Tuba was overjoyed . “Thank you, Your Highness!” Before he left, he had been given a reminder by the great priest to have His Highness develop a favorable impression of the titan tribe . This was the best way to save their tribe . Moreover, he was not to mention anything else, because that would only create pressure on His Highness and make him feel bothered instead .

Qin Yu knocked on the table and his eyes flashed . “Tuba, there is something I need you to do . ” A moment later, a puzzled Tuba flew out from the palace and directly soared towards Jiang Taishou’s residence .

Although he didn’t know why His Highness decided to give shelter to those who were with the surname Jiang, he didn’t inquire because he knew that His Highness must have a reason for doing so .

Qin Yu put away the jade box . He leaned back against his chair and closed his eyes, muttering, “It seems that the Black Demon Sect hasn’t come to a decision on how to carry out the agreement . But, this actually gives me a chance to understand the truth . ”

Three days later, as Qin Yu was cultivating, Tuba came in to report that the sect’s Elder Xu had arrived . He opened his eyes, his eyes flashing . This was the reason he hadn’t gone into seclusion .

“Have him wait in the main hall for a moment . I will tidy up and then come . ”

After a moment when Qin Yu finished washing up, he stepped into the main hall and said, “Elder Xu, I wonder what your reason for visiting today is?”

His attitude was a bit cold but at least he was calm and not aggressive or menacing . This caused Xu Song to relax a little . “Greetings, Grandmaster Yao . I came here today in hopes of having a discussion with you concerning the matter of the spirit plant material transactions . ”

Qin Yu nodded . “I already expected this . But, let’s not be in a hurry . Let’s have some tea before we continue speaking . ” He clapped his hands and two pretty maids walked in with bowed heads and small steps . They served up cups of hot tea .

Xu Song didn’t know just what plot this surname Yao was scheming, but he maintained his composure and took a sip . Then, he commented with approval, “What great tea!”

Qin Yu said, “The tea isn’t bad, but to have such flavor, I must thank these two maids . Their tea steeping method is excellent . ”

Xu Song had already put away his disdain of Yao Bin . He knew he wouldn’t say these things without reason . He glanced towards the two maids .

Soon, the hand carrying the teacup slightly trembled and there was a trace of gloominess in Xu Song’s eyes .

Qin Yu smiled . “You may leave . ” After the two maids left, he continued to say, “It seems that Elder Xu appears to know those two . ”

Xu Song slowly said, “Those two maids, I seem to recall that they used to serve at Grandmaster Jiang’s side . ”

“That’s right . At the gambling fight at Heavenwait Temple, Grandmaster Jiang lost his life . I often feel guilty when I think about this and find it hard to be at peace . Unfortunately, since things went that far, it is impossible to turn back . I could only give shelter to some of Grandmaster Jiang’s old disciples and workers so that they aren’t humiliated by others . ”

Xu Song was silent for a long time . He said, “Grandmaster is wise . I think you must have already guessed my real goal for coming here today . I wonder if grandmaster has an answer ready or not?”

Qin Yu laid down the teacup . “We will do as it’s usually been . I will agree to the conditions that Jiang Taishou had in the past, and I can also give the Chief Elder an additional 10% of the profits . ”

As he spoke, his hand flashed and a card appeared in his hand . He placed it on the table . “This is just a bit of my sincerity . I hope that Elder Xu can accept and speak some kind words on my behalf . ”

Xu Song hesitated for a moment . He ruefully smiled, “Grandmaster Yao has such amazing methods; I am in deep admiration . I believe that the sect can accept this result . While I am here, I wish grandmaster good luck and great wealth in the future . ”

He casually received the card and swept through it with his divine sense . Seeing the amount, he was much more satisfied . It seemed that this surname Yao wasn’t someone who didn’t know what proper actions to take .

After speaking some more words, Qin Yu stood up and personally saw Xu Song out of the temple .

He turned back around and took a seat, continuing to drink tea . His eyebrows furrowed as he fell into contemplation . He had managed to temporarily suppress the matter of Jiang Taishou dying . But he knew it was a fact that because of this matter, he had offended the Chief Elder as well as a number of other people .

Compared to those people, he was still too weak . He should find some way to increase his strength . That way, even if some accident occurred in the future, he would have something he could rely on . Qin Yu didn’t believe that he could rest without worries after the gambling fight event at Heavenwait Temple . In front of a genuine powerhouse, the strength he displayed wasn’t anything at all .

Qin Yu’s eyes flashed . He left behind a message that he was going into seclusion and then entered the training chamber . He turned his hand and took out the storage ring . With a f
