Chapter 136: The Jade River Exhange

The following day, the news about the Legendary Artifact continued to spread throughout the capital and beyond.

The closest city, Wuyu City, had caught wind of the news. Quickly, many of the powerful clans in the city had visited the Thousand Wealth Chamber branch.

Even their City Lord sent his trusted butler to enquire about the news. It took a lot of convincing for them to send the powerful clan and City Lord away.

However, everyone knew this was just a temporary solution.

All eyes were on the Thousand Wealth Chamber, every of their actions were monitored.

Most especially, they were searching for the master that made such earth-shaking artifacts.

At the Jade River Exchange, a group of people sat around a massive round table. At the center was an old man with grey hair.

He had a withered face, bony hands, and long white beard. But his eyes were full of vitality, sharp like an eagle.

"Have you found everything about them?" the old man asked, in a deep, eerie voice.

"Yes, master." A man with an ordinary look responded.

Without waiting for the master to ask, he continued. "We found out the Thousand Wealth Chamber had branches in all cities in the Southern Region." His voice was low, but everyone could feel the seriousness.

"Hmm?" The master tapped the table twice.

"But there is something more..." he continued.

All the elders looked at the man, waiting for him to continue. The master nodded, and the man continued.

"In the Purple Stone City, the Thousand Wealth Chamber sold a powerful artifact. This artifact was unlike any other artifacts. They are communication artifacts."

"Just like their Lightning Wind Carriage, it has three grades. The Common Grade, Standard, but instead of a Noble Grade, it is called Gold Grade."

"What is special about these communication artifacts?" an elder asked impatiently.

"Please be patient. I’ll get to it shortly." The man looked at the impatient elder and said casually.

The impatient elder snorted but did not continue to speak.

The master watched everything without any change in his expression. The man continued.

"Like the Lightning Wind Carriage, this was unlike any communication artifact we’ve ever seen. The communication artifacts were called Spirit Link. The Common Grade Spirit Link could allow ten people to communicate within the range of 5km as if they were face to face."

A gasp echoed in the quiet hall, and all the elders wore a look of disbelief. How could such a powerful artifact exist?

None of them believed it.

Even the Legendary Lightning Wind Carriage was still understandable, but this... this is impossible.

"Elder Shen, are you sure of what you’re saying?" a woman asked coldly.

Elder Shen turned to look at the woman, he had an unsightly expression on his face.

"Do you think I’ll dare sprout nonsense in front of the master?" His voice rose an octave. "I personally checked

everything myself. Besides, this is just the weakest of them. The other two..."

A deep sigh escaped his lips.

Watching his expression, the elders were stunned. Is it possible the other two grades were more terrifying than this?

Thinking of this, their hearts skipped a beat. The elders exchanged subtle glances and looked at the master.

The master maintained his unreadable expression.

Everyone turned their gaze to Elder Shen for him to continue.

Elder Shen cleared his throat. "Until I finish my report, no one should interrupt me again."

None of the elders replied, but their silence was enough.

"Alright. For the Standard Grade, it could allow one hundred people to communicate and its range was over 50km..."

Huh!

All the elders gasped, their eyes widening in disbelief. Even the master’s usually unreadable face faltered.

The weight of this revelation was overwhelming, leaving everyone stunned, unable to grasp the magnitude of what they had just learned.

How could a mere chamber create such a heaven-defying artifact?!

Elder Shen did not wait for them to recover from their shock as he continued. "For the last grade, the Gold Grade..."

He paused, and everyone could see the traces of disbelief on his face. Even though he had heard about it, he couldn’t help but be amazed every time he thought about such heaven-defying artifacts.

"For the Gold Grade Spirit Link, it could allow anyone to communicate throughout the Southern Region."

"Impossible!" an elder shouted.

He could accept the two lower grades, but an artifact that allowed people to communicate throughout the Southern Region was impossible.

How are they going to make it?

Elder Shen sneered. "For you it is impossible, but for those in the Thousand Wealth Chamber, it is nothing. Do you know what? I had the chance to see the Gold Grade Spirit Link..."

"It’s unlike anything I’ve ever seen. I’ll kill for it, alas..." He shook his head and looked at the master.

"As for anything beyond this, our agent could not find out. It’s like they popped out of nowhere." Elder Shen concluded his report.

For a moment, no one spoke as they were lost in thought, shock and disbelief evident on their faces.

The Jade River Exchange prided themselves as the master of intelligence, but what if they could control such an unrivaled artifact?

They would be unrivaled in this world.

"Master, we must deal with the Thousand Wealth Chamber immediately. I believe they must have a powerful ancient inheritance," an elder said, breaking the silence.

"Indeed. Without such a powerful ancient inheritance, there is no way they could continue to create such earth-shaking artifacts."

"We must act immediately, and I believe many other forces have the same intention as us."

Quickly, all the elders raised their voices, asking for the destruction of the Thousand Wealth Chamber.

The master tapped the wooden table twice before he spoke.

"This information about the Thousand Wealth Chamber must not be revealed. Is that clear?" His eagle-sharp eyes looked at everyone inside the room.

"Yes, master." The elders nodded.

"Good. Since they did not give us face, they won’t blame us if we destroy them."

When the elders heard, an evil smile crept up their faces.

"Start making preparations, join with other forces to destroy the Thousand Wealth Chamber."
