Chapter 993: Wild Ambitions

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Brother Yun, do not fret. All the resources required will be collected by us, the General Commerce League.”

A sense of urgency seeped through Lang Fantian’s jolly expression.

“As a matter of fact, we’ve gathered plenty of resources and the quality of those treasures is much higher than the last time… The focal point now, instead, is whether or not Brother Yun can bring us the Qi of vitality.”

“I really dare not guarantee this. The value of the Qi of vitality has exceeded my expectations, I -”

“Brother Yun! You must help us!”

Lang Fantian was now clearly desperate. “Other gems are secondary, but the Qi of vitality is compulsory for Elder Li to recover his cultivation base… The future of the General Commerce League… depends on this.”

“Why is it so serious?” Yun Yang was surprised.

This was not the case that had been presented previously. Yun Yang had said that he was rather confident of obtaining another stream of the vital energy, but he had never said that it was certain. The situation now… were they not regarding him too highly? Or, were they forcing him to act upon their wishes?

“The General Commerce League… cough… After the higher-level management discussed among ourselves, we think that if both heralds could partner up and do battle, our odds of winning the upper-class Celestial Luck Banner will increase another twenty percent from the initial odds. Furthermore, they’ll be our secret weapon, taking the enemy by surprise, so our chance of winning will be quite high…”

Lang Fantian spoke hesitantly, the meaning to his words ambiguous. However, smart as Yun Yang was, he understood it immediately.

The General Commerce League probably already possessed the faculties to compete for the upper-class Celestial Luck Banner and even had the confidence of up to fifty percent chance of winning. It was due to a lack of ace combat force that they dared not risk an attempt, thus taking a hiatus from it.

The episode at the Residence of Nine Supremes, however, had helped one of their ace forces to return to youth and they were hopeful to rejuvenate another as well! This would be adding two ace Supreme Saint experts to their fighting force at once!

The delightful surprise jolted the General Commerce League’s higher-level management awake instantly. This was a God-given opportunity!

If the Heaven Sword and Earth Saber could recover their prime prowess before the banner match, the General Commerce League would have a boost in their overall combat force. The upper-class Celestial Luck Banner would no longer be a fifty-fifty chance, but a highly probable acquisition.

This was concerning the longevity of the General Commerce League. Since there was hope, why would they simply give up on it?

Therefore, the General Commerce League decided promptly - they had submitted their application and registered to compete for the upper-class Celestial Luck Banner. The decision was sudden, a spontaneous one.

It was also this unforeseen decision that caused Lang Fantian, the Vice Chief, to be caught at a loss, at sixes and sevens. The key to the entire situation… lay on Yun Yang.

Yun Yang’s timely supply of the Qi of vitality had roused the General Commerce League’s wild ambitions that had long been in hibernation. It was necessary that they obtain more of the energy during this point of time to recuperate Li Yixin, so that both Zhang and Li Elders could partner up in the battle as the league’s ace forces.

Lang Fantian’s trip this time was to execute the glorious mission of sustaining the General Commerce League’s eternal operations. The pressure he felt was immense, an arduous challenge for him to tackle.

“Is it too late to say that I’m not actually confident and dare not, at all, to guarantee anything?” Yun Yang shook his head insistently as he emphasized his reluctance.

“We can enter the second time if we fail once, or thrice if we fail twice! Brother Yun mentioned that you were quite certain. Can’t it work with more attempts?” Lang Fantian’s gaze was fervent.

What he said allowed Yun Yang to understand the scenario completely. The resources that Lang Fantian had brought along this time was not only better than those that he had previously entered the Spirit’s Grave with, but they were also sufficient to handle a handful of entries to the grave. There was a massive amount of items.

Comprehending the purpose, Yun Yang could not help but ponder.

Awkwardness filled the air then. After some moments of awkward silence, Yun Yang spoke through gritted teeth, “I’ll… try my best.”

His expression, however, was like the dead water, dark and murky.

Yun Yang’s reaction was not feigned. It was utterly natural. Although the Qi of vitality came easily to Yun Yang, like a piece of cake, it must not be known to others, including the eight other Supremes, Little Fatty Qian Duoduo and the other Residence of Nine Supremes’ higher-level management - not even a hint of such a secret could be disclosed!

Prior to this, Yun Yang had tried to overestimate the power of the Qi of vitality and possible scenarios as much as he could, but it seemed like he had still undervalued the energy’s attraction.

The General Commerce League knew that there were substantial limitations to Yun Yang’s entrance to the Spirit’s Grave. The current decision posed an absolute disadvantage in the long term, but they had still insisted on urging Yun Yang, to convince him that repeated entries were within their consideration. It was apparent that their personal gain was too irresistible that everything was deemed insignificant!

There were uglier thoughts that sprouted in Yun Yang’s head. Considering what he had said about the pros and cons of entering the Spirit’s Grave, the General Commerce League’s determination and insistence on maintaining their decision was no different from exploiting him and he felt like a bottomless jug they were trying to fill.

Of course, the actual state was a total contrast. The more transactions there were, the happier Yun Yang was to see them happen. In spite of it, there was an essential distinction to who the dominant party was. The profit arising from the relationship between them was significant. With Yun Yang’s intelligence, he knew well about the boons and banes involved.

Seeing that Yun Yang had agreed, Lang Fantian was overjoyed, as he continuously thanked the former.

“Thank you, Brother Yun. Thank you for your assistance.”

He then introduced his colleagues who had come with him to Yun Yang. Other than the usual handful of men from the General Commerce League, there were eight more men who were the league’s Eight Golden Guards who came forward to greet Yun Yang respectively.

The meet and greet was supposedly common and was irrelevant to their discussion, but Yun Yang felt inexplicably unsettled when he met the fifth Golden Guard, Xiao Jianghu.

Xiao Jianghu was muscular, with a refined air about him. He worked hard to look cautious and like an underling when they interacted, but the individual temperament did not match what he showed.

“This is… Xiao Jianghu?” Yun Yang smiled and complimented the man, “You have a great name. Xiao Jianghu (homophone to laughing at the martial world), overlooking the martial world with a laugh. What name, what innate reverence, being able to laugh while facing the martial arts world wielding a blade - what a brilliant name!”

Xiao Jianghu replied, “Leader Yun has sung too high a praise. A name is only an address. Everything else is merely a coincidence.”

Yun Yang laughed and answered, “There are good names and bad names. It’s normal. However, some people are able to bear the weight of their names while some can’t. This depends on the person’s destiny as well.”

“Ah, I’ve not studied this,” Xiao Jianghu replied with a chortle.

Lang Fantian, standing by the side, chuckled and cut in. “How are there so many references to a name? Such details are not worthy of discussion. Brother Yun, we don’t know what you need for this entry to the Spirit’s Grave but are we proceeding with the previous quotation?”

Even as he spoke, it was clear that he was trying to divert the topic back to more important matters!
