Chapter 903: A Sincere Collaboration

Shi Wuchen was befuddled!

Why did he feel that he could relate to what he was seeing now?

Although Shi Wuchen was a Saint level cultivator, he had never come across the Ethereal Amethyst. Other than fretting about exposing themselves, he worried about Yun Yang's condition; it was a matter of course that he did not think to connect these dots during these past few days.

When Yun Yang had retrieved ten pieces of the crystals, he had sold them right away, so Shi Wuchen had only a glimpse of the highly coveted gems. However, these Ethereal Amethysts were either with him or placed on the table in front of him for these two days. He felt things begin to fall into place.

'Could the formation that boss made the other day with one hundred and eight energy crystals all be these Ethereal Amethysts?'

The possibility grew even more plausible as Shi Wuchen thought about it as if the reality was so. Then...

'What boss said earlier, ninety percent of them has to be false, if not all...'

'Being able to take only ten pieces out at one time... You could already set up a formation with them...'

Shi Wuchen's eyes went blank, as he suddenly thought about the one hundred and eight Ethereal Amethysts that were buried in the guarding formation of their sect, tossed away by Yun Yang like they were bits and pieces of trash...

With a "huh", Shi Wuchen passed out in blissful oblivion. Before he lost consciousness, he heard Yun Yang rejecting the group's offer, "That can't do... My sect has to fight independently in order to gather the providence. If you fellows help, it simply can't work. No, no way."

"Including the resources that we exchange after this, I can't take them for nothing. They have to be from exchanges. This rule must be fixed now and no one can change it."

Lang Fantian laughed and said, "Alright, alright. We'll go according to what you say, Brother Yun. However, you can sell the stolen goods here to us when you rob in the future. We're in the black market business. I promise you that we'll take whatever you rob in the future and fence them at a good price!"

What he thought, however, was the opposite.

'What valuables could these two children steal? Besides, they're so weak in their capabilities. What if they meet someone tough and it's instantly the end of the line for them?'

'If they die, this path is broken. As such, they can't even be harmed, let alone die!'

'There are still so many gems have yet to be retrieved from the Spirit's Grave!'

On the other side, Xiao Yushu and Gu Jiuxiao's eyes glowed as they spoke simultaneously, "It's fine. We think that the name, Raiders of All But God, is quite domineering. We quite like it. You can go on being bandits and develop your sect to strengthen your forces. As your ally, it'd be great if we offer your protection, wouldn't it?"

"That's right! It's just robberies... Who hasn't been robbed before, some more than others in fact, while roaming the martial world? Could one be called a martial artist if he has not been robbed repeatedly? Fret not. Once you have the loot, come here to us. We'll give you whatever you need. It's fair trade, a win-win situation! We help each other!"

"Yes, that's right. There shall be no free takeaways lest those with ulterior motives plan things. That'll affect your sect's growth too... This rule is excellent!"

Feng Guohao said thoughtfully, "Why not station someone at Yun Yang's sect to receive the resources at any time and quicken our transaction processes? Won't that be better?"

He gave Lang Fantian a look, the latter understanding and saying, "I'm afraid that person will have to stay with Brother Yun's sect for a long time. If so, who'd be willing to go?"

"I am!"

Feng Guohao, Xiao Yushu and Gu Jiuxiao spoke up in unison. Swiftly, the three of them looked at each other, the flickers of flame in their eyes clashing and jabbing at the others.

What a good opportunity it would be! They could see whatever gem arrived instantly! First come, first served!

This would be a chance of a lifetime. All of them were not young anymore, they needed the resources more than ever.

Lang Fantian rolled his eyes thinking, 'Damn you all! If I weren't the Vice Chief, I'd go too!'

'Do you three old folks think I don't know what you fellows are thinking about? Are you fellow so eager to hit the jackpot?'

'How can I fulfill this wish of yours?'

"Why not all of you go together?" Lang Fantian decided promptly. If two went, they could team up; if it were three, however...

The perspectives of two Protectors and a keeper were contrasting.

"Then I'll send two more people as a rotation." Lang Fantian added after giving it another thought, yet he still found himself troubled.

Feng Guohai pondered and replied, "I don't think it's enough. I'm afraid the Vice Chief will have to give it some thought. When we transport the goods in the future, the route will surely be noticed by ill-intentioned ones sooner or later. By then, we're too weak..."

Lang Fantian glanced at Feng Guohai in appraisal and said, "Elder Feng is far-sighted and meticulous indeed. Let me request to come personally with the Eight Vajras and be stationed at Dongye City from the Chief upon returning."

"The significance of this matter is enormous, relevant to the General Commerce League's longevity. I suppose I must toil for it," he said sighing softly.

The other three elder men rolled their eyes.

He was the Vice Chief for sure, being able to transform his ulterior motive to such righteous and bright determination as if he had made a lot of sacrifices...

'It's not our business who comes over after you go back, though. We're here now in charge of Yun Yang's safety and that's enough. A waterside pavilion gets the moonlight first anyway.'

'As for whether you, our dear Vice Chief, can secure this task and return here... it boils down to how good you are.'

'After all... there are six more Vice Chiefs who are equal to you...'

As the discussion came to a conclusion, all that was left was execution, thus relieving the group of any further tasks.

Lang Fantian turned around and finally noticed, exclaiming, "Here now - how did this fellow faint? When did he pass out?"

Yun Yang glimpsed at Shi Wuchen who was passed out on the floor and could not help pursing his lips.

'This fellow has been passed out for half a quarter of an hour and you four experts have only realized it now. I feel bad for my Supreme Sword - how non-existent he must be feeling...'

Under everyone's watchful gaze, Yun Yang and Shi Wuchen poured everything that they had plundered from their spatial rings. They watched as the large warehouse Yun Yang had requested earlier being filled up by things that were gradually piling up. Then, they watched the various categories of items accumulate and each pile grow bigger and denser before the variety grew even more diverse...

When the first warehouse was filled, they moved to the second one, then the third...

Lang Fantian, Xiao Yushu, Gu Jiuxiao and Feng Guohai could not help the twitching of their lips as they witnessed what unfolded before them.

These two fellows certainly lived up to their reputation as the Raiders of All But God indeed!
