Chapter 1463: Chapter 1434: Bandit Guidelines
In the battle within the Enchanted World of the Devil Ruin Mountain, Li Chen seized quite a few rings, all of which originally belonged to the Xuanlian Comrce Chamber people.
And among them, Li Chen discovered such a magical brick.
No one knows whether it was out of boredom or a belief in its utility, but this brick had been refined to the grade of a Spiritual Artifact by its owner.
Earlier, the young man was still plotting how to sche against Li Chen, but before he could execute his plan, he was knocked out cold by a single brick strike from Li Chen.
“The feel is unexpectedly good, and what’s with this subtle thrill the mont the brick makes contact with the body?” Li Chen mused, rubbing the brick in his hand, beginning to understand why the original owner had refined such a Spiritual Artifact.
It’s truly satisfying when striking soone!
At this ti, Qin Qiang and a group of bandits also gathered around, all giving Li Chen a thumbs up.
“Amazing!”
“Young Brother Lin, strong!”
The bandits looked at Li Chen, expressions of admiration on their faces.
Because if it really ca down to a fight, facing such a Late Stage Envy Heaven Realm from a Four-Star Sect would be quite pressured, even for them. It wouldn’t be easy to handle and might even cost them one or two mbers.
Yet, Li Chen sohow gained the opponent’s trust and knocked him out with a single brick.
anwhile, the bandits couldn’t help but feel a wave of sympathy for the young man.
To think that even a dignified Late Stage Envy Heaven Realm powerhouse was knocked out by a brick; if this got out, he wouldn’t be able to show his face.
“It’s all thanks to you all, brothers; if it weren’t for you scaring him, how could I have succeeded so easily.” Li Chen humbly said.
“Hey! Young Brother Lin, that’s not entirely correct. Although we at Heisha Ridge are a group of scattered martial artists, we speak straight from the shoulder. This fat sheep was spotted and handled by Brother Lin, so you decide how to divide the loot!” Qin Qiang said, swathing his large sleeve.
He was also buying goodwill because Li Chen had just joined, and if he were to seize Li Chen’s things forcefully, even he wouldn’t be happy with it.
“Alright then, since Big Brother Qin’s so kind, I’ll gladly accept!” Li Chen said boldly.
After all, it wasn’t his belongings, so he wasn’t heartbroken dividing them. Yet, when he removed the young man’s ring and inspected it with his Divine Sense, Li Chen was shocked.
He found out that this guy was even wealthier than Houng.
When the items from the ring were revealed, even the bandits were stunned.
“This… is indeed a fat sheep! It’s more than what we earned in the past year combined!” a bandit murmured.
Li Chen not only extracted a large amount of Spirit Crystal from the ring but also various pills and Spiritual Artifacts. He even found a Vajra Talisman!
“These sect disciples are indeed wealthy!”
Ultimately, Li Chen only took Spirit Crystals and the Vajra Talisman, leaving the other Spiritual Artifacts and pills for Qin Qiang and the rest to divide.
Qin Qiang and company were also overjoyed.
It’s known that the combined value of these pills and Spiritual Artifacts far exceeded those Spirit Crystals.
However, since Li Chen was himself an Alchemist and had no demand for Spiritual Artifacts, he simply gave everything to them.
“Brother Lin, what should we do with this person?” After dividing the loot, Qin Qiang couldn’t help but ask.
By now, he fully acknowledged the value of Li Chen.
With soone like him joining, perhaps Heisha Ridge would indeed see a new dawn.
“We can’t act against a disciple of a Four-Star Sect for the ti being. Elder Qin, we don’t have a Higher Heaven Realm powerhouse at Heisha Ridge, right?” Li Chen asked.
“No, we don’t.” Qin Qiang shook his head sowhat helplessly; if they had a Higher Heaven Realm powerhouse, they wouldn’t need to be bandits at all.
“But now, the Big Leader is already at Mid Heaven Following Realm, and our plan is to establish a sect once he advances to Late Heaven Following Realm. Even if it’s just a Three-Star Sect, we should not need to be as we are now.” Qin Qiang said.
“Establish a sect? That’s a good idea.” Li Chen nodded.
He had initially thought about using this young man to extort that Four-Star Sect.
But quickly dismissed the idea; the Four-Star Sect was too powerful, not sothing he could get involved with currently.
If he really provoked the Four-Star Sect, he might end up suffering for it.
“Let’s strip him of his clothes and throw him into the nearest city.” Li Chen suggested: “Toss him close enough for the City Guards to see him, otherwise he might be killed by passersby, causing us trouble.”
“Alright!” Qin Qiang nodded.
“Oh, by the way.” Li Chen frowned as he thought of sothing: “When tossing him, it’d be best to change our appearance so we’re not recognized. And I think we shouldn’t use the na Heisha Ridge when conducting business in the future. It’s not that we fear trouble, but there’s no need to invite unnecessary problems.”
“Brother Lin makes sense!” The bandits agreed, nodding like hearing a saintly song. If they had doubts about Li Chen’s words before, the loot division showed them Li Chen was on their side.
“Ren Shu, your Art of Disguise is the best, we leave this to you.” Qin Qiang said to a sowhat lean Martial Artist.
“Young Brother Lin, co with us to Heisha Ridge first.”
“Alright.” Li Chen nodded in agreent since he had no place to go anyway. Seeking cultivation resources required a place to rest.
Heisha Ridge seed like a good place, providing him with an identity.
“To think the dignified King of the Netherworld would beco a Dog-headed Strategist for a bandit gang,” Li Chen muttered inwardly, but outwardly he acted increasingly chummy with the bandits.
Heisha Ridge wasn’t as ill-reputed as its na suggested. On the contrary, it was a place of verdant hills and lucid waters, rich in Spiritual Energy.
After all, Martial Artists require a large amount of Spiritual Energy to cultivate, so why would they stay in desolate and barren lands?
Li Chen was pleasantly surprised upon entering Heisha Ridge.
This place was much better than he imagined. It was even more enriched with Spiritual Energy than Baiyue City was, and compared to places like Auspicious Clear Town, there was simply no comparison.
“Elder Qin, Heisha Ridge is a treasure indeed.” Li Chen marveled.
“Yes.” Qin Qiang nodded, sowhat sentintal: “We decided to make this our base when we discovered it. And if the Big Leader breaks through to Late Heaven Following Realm, Heisha Ridge will be our sect’s foundation.”
Hearing Qin Qiang ntion establishing a sect again, Li Chen couldn’t help but have thoughts, and his eyes began turning.
