Chapter 108: The Ignorance of the Purple Stone City.

Boss Kun stood before Mo Jian with a bittersweet smile. Who would have expected things would turn out like this?

He had to lower himself and plead for the Thousand Wealth Chamber to take him in.

Previously, he sat on his high horse looking down on the Thousand Wealth Chamber, but who would have expected in less than a week—

Everything would change.

His power and influence meant nothing without the Long clan supporting him.

He was nothing but a mere dog.

In the past decade, under the serving of the Long clan, he had made many enemies, and now, the clan was not going to support him any longer.

His only hope was this new power.

Unknown to Boss Kun thought, Mo Jian looked at him and shook his head. "Why should I accept you?"

"Young Master, I know you’re not from this city, and if you want to establish your chamber, you need people who understand the ins and outs of the region," Boss Kun quickly responded.

"What I know about the city and the surrounding area, only a few could know more than me."

"I’m loyal and have a dedicated force under me. I grew the Western district from nothing to what it is today."

"I believe I can help you in one way or the other. Please, accept me under your wing," he pleaded.

’Hmm!’

Mo Jian did not respond as he tapped the small wooden table calmly.

’With him, I can transport the Misty Silver ore and the Redsteel ore to the Western Region without anyone knowing.’

’Besides, with him, I can slowly expand my influence.’

Although the Western Region was growing stronger every day, his acquired asset in the Purple Stone City needed to be protected.

With such underlings working in the shadows, many things could be accomplished.

After giving it a thought, he raised his head and looked at Boss Kun.

"For me to accept you, you must prove your worth."

"Young Master, anything. I’ll do it immediately," Boss Kun responded as a light smile crept up his lips.

His gamble had paid off.

"Good." Mo Jian nodded and gave him a paper which contained his first mission.

Meanwhile, on the surface, the black market was bustling with gossip and rumors, while also, the prestige of the Thousand Wealth Chamber rose once again.

With the destruction of the Mo clan and the powerful warriors under the Thousand Wealth Chamber—

Everyone knows, the Thousand Wealth Chamber is one of the strongest forces in the city now.

Quickly, the news of the Mo clan’s destruction spread like wildfire.

"What! The Mo clan has been destroyed!"

"How is this possible?"

"What happened?"

"I heard they attacked the Thousand Wealth Chamber only to be destroyed."

"What! Is the chamber that powerful?"

"Idiot! If they are not powerful, how could they destroy the Mo clan?"

Early in the morning, everyone had heard of the destruction of the Mo clan, which shocked everyone.

"Is this true?" the Qing clan master asked in disbelief.

"Yes, Clan Master. Their mansion has been razed to the ground, leaving a few old and young children."

The Qing clan gasped in shock. The Mo clan had been an archrival of his clan for many decades, but who would have expected they would be destroyed in a single night?

"The Thousand Wealth Chamber is not as simple as we thought," he muttered.

Any chamber that dares to sell such rare artifacts won’t be ordinary.

In the Long clan, the clan master wore a look of disbelief as he also learned of the news.

"I heard that dog Kun went against the chamber?" he asked, looking at the elder.

"Yes, Clan Master. He attacked the chamber twice but failed," the elder responded.

"Immediately cut every tie with him. We do not want him to bring our clan to its ruin."

"I’ll get to it at once."

Inside the City Lord’s mansion, a bright smile appeared on the City Lord’s face.

"Haha. Who would have expected the arrogant Mo clan would be the first clan to be destroyed?" he laughed and sipped his Spirit Tea with relish.

"Ha! How I wish I had enough tea leaves," he mused, grinning happily.

With the destruction of the Mo clan, one of the turmoils in the city had been removed for him.

"Seize all the properties of the Mo clan and give half of it to the Thousand Wealth Chamber."

With the death of the Mo clan, many who did not know of the Thousand Wealth Chamber got to know of it.

Just as the news was spreading throughout the city, servants from the Thousand Wealth Chamber were visiting all the powerful clans in the city.

A one-time invitation to buy the Standard Grade Spirit Links, and also a VIP card for an auction that would be held tomorrow.

Quickly, the powerful clans were excited and rushed toward the outer city.

Unlike ordinary black market stores, the Thousand Wealth Chamber could operate anytime they wanted.

Although the Standard Grade Spirit Link cost one hundred thousand middle-grade Spirit Stones, they could afford it.

One after the other, the various clans purchased the Standard Grade Spirit Link.

"Hahaha. The Qing clan thought they were special, but they were nothing," the Long clan master laughed happily.

He had been considering giving the Qing clan fifty thousand middle-grade Spirit Stones, but who would have expected the chamber would change their mind?

Now that his clan had the Standard Grade Spirit Link, they were not any weaker than the Qing clan.

"Husband, what are we going to do?" Madam Qing asked.

"There is nothing we can do." The Qing clan master shook his head. They had missed such a rare chance because of their greed.

Therefore, there was nothing they could do but accept it.

Madam nodded. "What do you think of the auction?"

"From what I’ve seen so far, it will be special, and you must not miss it."

Since they did not have to worry about the Standard Grade Spirit Link, they focused their attention on tomorrow’s auction.

While the Qing clan was preparing for tomorrow’s auction, that could not be said about the other clans.

The thrill of using an artifact that allows them to communicate with hundreds of members within and outside the city was exhilarating.

Within a day, the trend of using a Spirit Link had risen sharply. Any clan in the inner city without the Standard Grade Spirit Link was looked down upon.

It became a symbol of status.

Thus, under the huge pressure, many clans that could not afford the one hundred thousand middle-grade Spirit Stones were pushed to desperation.

They would not be under huge pressure if they could buy the Standard Grade Spirit Link anytime they wanted.

But according to the Thousand Wealth Chamber, they only have today to buy the Standard Grade Spirit Link.

As from tomorrow, they won’t have the chance.

Thus, how could they miss such a rare chance?

"Young Master, please help my clan," an old man said, looking at Mo Jian. "If you can extend the period to three days, my clan would have the money."

Mo Jian shook his head. "I can’t change the rule. But this is what I can do for you."

"Do you have anything of equal value? Like mines, lands, cultivation techniques? For you not to think I’m exploiting you, the chamber would buy at 20 percent of its market price."

"Really?" The old man widened his eyes in disbelief.

"Yes." He nodded calmly.

"Hahaha. My clan has a few hectares of land in the city and also, there are a few stores in the central district." A bright smile appeared on the man’s face.

"Young Master, please wait a moment."

Mo Jian nodded.

Under the guise of buying the Standard Grade Spirit Link, the weaker clans sold their assets at 20 percent higher than the market price while also receiving the Standard Grade Spirit Link.

While Mo Jian was dealing with a clan master that could not afford the one hundred thousand middle-grade Spirit Stones, Zhao Tian was dealing with another thing.

"Young Master, these are the powerful loose cultivators in the city that I could convince," Boss Kun said respectfully.

Zhao Tian nodded. He looked at the dozens of rogue cultivators with a light smile on his face.

"I won’t try to convince you. But if you want to change your future and have a chance to break through to the Golden Core Realm, don’t miss this chance."

The rogue warriors looked at Zhao Tian in shock. How could he talk about the Golden Core Realm as if it was easy to achieve?

Even Boss Kun could not believe his ears. His ambition was to become a Peak Core Refining warrior, but not a Golden Core Realm.

Did the chamber have the means?

Looking at their skeptical gaze, Zhao Tian smiled. "Why do you think we have so many Peak Core Refining warriors among us?"

"This is because we have the ability to cultivate Golden Core experts. I won’t say more than this."

"You decide. My time is limited." Zhao Tian placed both his hands behind his back.

"How do we know you’re telling the truth?" a middle-aged man with a deep scar on his face asked.

"Because you’re going to sign a soul contract," Zhao Tian responded and brought the Blood and Soul contract.

"With this, you can be assured we won’t go back on our promise. Besides, the moment you sign the contract, you will receive an Earth Grade technique that would allow you to break into the Golden Core Realm in the future."

When they heard this, their eyes shone brightly.

"Young Master Zhao, please let me sign the contract immediately," Boss Kun said with a bright smile, unable to hide his joy.

"Good." Zhao Tian nodded and gave him a Blood and Soul Contract.

With Boss Kun taking the lead, the others quickly followed after him. The allure of a Golden Core Realm was just too good to miss.

Unknown to the powerful clans and the City Lord, the Thousand Wealth Chamber was slowly capturing the major assets in the city while also growing their force.

To others, the Southern Region was a brutal and dangerous place, but to Mo Jian, it was a land full of riches.
