Chapter 818: A Woman''s Heart is the Most Vicious
Sin Ind was very big but was too small inparison to the East Imperial Content. The East Imperial Continent had 108 regions, and the total surface area of Sin Ind wasnt even the size of a single region. The overallbat strength wasnt even enough to match any single one of the Nine Thearchs ns. Without the Nine Dragons God-Extinguishing Array and without the demon race from the Endless Deep Sea, the Sin Ind would have been eliminated a long time ago.
Therefore, Sin Ind had no choice but to constantly defend, and they had never thought about counterattacking. Unless someone like the Mystic Thearch appears among their midst, allowing them to sweep across the East Imperial Continent with one man and one saber. Was that possible? Since a million years of the Stersky Domain, there had only been one Mystic Thearch.
The 13 ns from Sin Ind had never once thought of counterattacking and had only thought about how to defend, how to amplify the Nine Dragons God-Extinguishing Array, and how to secure the rtionship with the demon race in the Endless Deep Sea.
There had always been East Imperial Continents spies that managed to infiltrate Sin Ind, and the 13 ns knew it clearly. They also knew that the East Imperial Continent was constantly thinking of ways to destroy Sin Ind. Because every day Sin Ind existed, the Nine Thearchs ns would feel humiliated for one more day.
Actually, the 13 ns also had spies in the East Imperial Continent, but they were spies that scouted out some simple information of the East Imperial Continent. Information like major incidents. Otherwise, they might not know what happened when they perished. They knew of information like the Mystic Divine Pce appearing on the Mt. Mystic Divine, or how Jiang Yi humiliated the Nine Thearchs ns, or if the Nine Thearchs n had a youth generation experts. All these were information that could be easily obtained.
However, if they had to rely on those people to overturn the rule of the Nine Thearchs ns, it would certainly be a pipe dream. In fact, all those more detailed information were very hard to scout. The East Imperial Continent was too big, and the Nine Thearchs ns were too massive. Their puny number of people werent even enough to fill the gap of their teeth.
It was why Qian Wanguans n had shocked the 13 ns so much. Apart from the Situ n, the other ns didnt believe it; but they simply wanted to gain some profits with the Situ n.
Just as Qian Wanguan said if they could earn money on East Imperial Continent, they would be earning money from the Nine Thearchs ns. They could then buy more elixirs, more treasures, and more artifacts from the East Imperial Continent, making the 13 ns even stronger. What was there to go against?
The Lei n, the Nangong n, the Lu n, and two other ns were strongly against it as they felt that the Situ n were trying to go against the tide. Doing business with the enemy? Delivering the treasures from the Endless Deep Sea and Sin Ind to the East Imperial Continent? Wasnt it just giving the enemies their advantage?
If they were to have long-term dealings with the East Imperial Continent, wouldnt that allow for more spies to infiltrate easily? If that happened, before they could even enter the enemys interior, the Nine Thearchs ns might enter their interior instead. In fact the Lei n even vaguely inquired if Jiang Yi and Qian Wanguan were spies sent by the East Imperial Continent?
The various ns didnt believe the final point of argument as Jiang Yi had too deep a grudge with the Nine Thearchs ns. They even sent people to assassinate Jiang Yi inside of Gods Bestow City. If it wasnt for Lei ns Patriarch interference, Jiang Yi would already be dead.
Moreover, Qian Wanguan had stated clearly that the important materials of Sin Ind must not be sold to the East Imperial Continent, materials like thunder stones or the peculiar treasures of the Endless Deep Sea. He even formed a supervisory team where it wouldprise of members from the eight ns. The members of the supervisory team had to been changed every year, and the eight ns would decide who to send. This way, they wouldpletely avoid the possibility of anyone colluding with the enemy.
Qian Wanguan even said that the other five ns might not be involved, but they could also send members into the supervisory team. With everything going ording to the rules, it would make the business even more open and fair. This way, the Lei, the Nangong, the Lu, and the two other ns wouldnt have anything else they could criticize, allowing the new Soaring Dragon Merchant Association to be officially established.
After the Soaring Dragon Merchant Association was established, Situ Ao wasnt able to sleep for half a month.
This wasnt merely a merchant association; it wasnt merely earning money, but an alliance! With this merchant association, the eight ns were tied up to the same war chariot with Situ n as the leader. If this merchant association could constantly bring in profits, the eight ns would get stronger and stronger. Wouldnt it mean that the seven other ns would have to tightly gather around the Situ n? No matter how powerful the Lei n was, were they able to go against the eight major ns?
Qian Wanguan mentioned that he would make the Situ n the no.1 n in five years, and it wasnt empty talk.
Most importantly, Qian Wanguan was conspiring openly and in a way that no one could castigate. Even if the Lei n were unhappy, it would be useless. Would the Lei n dare to go against the eight ns? Was the Patriarch of the Lei n truly invincible?
The business world was just like the battlefield while Qian Wanguan could use both hidden and open conspiracies. He would use them without any conventional reasoning, making it impossible to guard against. Qian Wanguan had recently be a mighty figure that no one dared to underestimate as he had be the esteemed guest of all the eight ns, allowing him to have prestige which surpassed Jiang Yi. There was something that Qian Wanguan didnt know if he shouldugh or cry. Among the members of the supervisory team, four of the ns had sent out their most beautiful youngdies who surrounded Qian Wanguan the entire day. They would supervise Qian Wanguan in name, but everyone knew of their intentions.
Qian Wanguan? I didnt expect that wretched fatty to be so capable? I have truly made an error in judgment. This person is truly a talent.
In the Sin Hall of the North Thearch Citys Wu Castle, Ji Tingyu was looking at thetest updated information while her charming face was filled with praise. She had some impressions of this fatty as he was the Young n Head of the Qian n and was also the most loyal little brother of Jiang Yi.
There were many members of the Wu n who had been purged out. The information that were sent back was all very vague. The information about the Soaring Dragon Merchant Association was kept in absolute secrecy, which Ji Tingyu didnt obtain any information about. She simply knew that Qian Wanguan was very popr now and had helped the Situ n earned a lot of celestial stones, and his status now was high and mighty.
Wu Ni had been secluding himself as he rejected all invitations to the banquets and had been either cultivating or reading the various information in the Sin Hall. This was Ji Tingyus advice, to climb back up where he fell. It didnt matter if he could climb back up; he had to put on the attitude. He had been kneeling in the Sin Hall for the recent days, which caused the dissatisfaction from the elder hall to be lowered to the minimum.
When he heard Ji Tingyu sighing with surprise, he knitted his brows and said, Ji Tingyu, you still have the mood tough? If Qian Wanguan is doing better, Jiang Yi would be safer, making it even more difficult for us to deal with him
Ji Tingyuughed lightly and shook her head. Young Master Ni, we have to face our enemy squarely, and we even have to respect our enemy. Qian Wanguan is truly a talent, and this is something we must admit. If we do not view our enemy properly, how are we going to analyze them properly? How are we going to find their ws and kill them in a single blow?
One had to admit that Wu Ni had a strong point, and it was that he was willing to listen. After Ji Tingyu finished talking, he mulled over it and nodded. You are right. I have been blinded by hatred. We really have to view our enemy properly.
Young Master Ni is progressing in the correct direction. I think if your fatherthe North Kingheard this statement, he would be really happy.
Ji Tingyu got up and smiled. In fact, it is simply too easy for us to kill Qian Wanguan and Jiang Yi. The better Qian Wanguan is doing, the more danger he and Jiang Yi would be in. So much so that I can use despicable methods to kill them easily!
Wu Nis eyes glittered as he asked, What despicable methods?
Ji Tingyu looked towards the west and said, Qian Wanguan has a father and nsmen in Stersky Continent. We can capture them and coerce Qian Wanguan to betray Jiang Yi effortlessly. They would then be killed by the Situ n. Of course this is a backup n.
No way!
Wu Ni shook his hand resolutely and said, The sin is not on the family members. This is the n rules of the Nine Thearchs ns. If the Nine Thearchs ns are going to battle, we will fight with honor. Otherwise, when the news spread out, our Wu n will be the enemy of all people.
Ji Tingyu nodded and spoke softly, Hence, I said this is the backup n as it is the most effective n. Since Young Master doesnt agree, we will use the proper n. However, it will require some time.
Time isnt a problem. I just need to win this battle with properly. Wu Ni nodded and said, Recently, I have realized that I am over-eager for sess, and my mindset isnt stable enough. I am preparing to go into seclusion for a period of time and immerse myself in cultivation. The matters of the Sin Hall shall be given to you with full authority.
Great!
Ji Tingyu was truly emotional as she spoke, Young Master Ni is growing very quickly. I am sure when the timees, you will be the new generation North Sovereign and the North Thearch. Young Master, dont worry. In less than two years, Tingyi will turnover Sin Ind. Jiang Yi and Qian Wanguan will then have to die without any burial grounds!
Wu Ni felt an ineffable chill in his spine when he looked at Ji Tingyus passionate eyes. He suddenly recalled a statement. A womans heart was the most vicious.
