“The smart ones will see the benefits of this decision and only the fools will do what their hearts desire!” Qi Changsheng said, “We won’t gain anything substantial by killing Yin Wuqiu in the name of revenge! It’s pointless to kill him! Bro Bei will lose his Ethereal Cultivation dog! That’s an actual loss! If you think of it that way, it’s pretty obvious that keeping him alive is the wiser option! Of course, even I cannot deny that Yin Wuqiu deserves to die! He deserves to die ten thousand times over for the kind of crimes he committed. But I urge you not to kill him! Let him live as Bro Bei’s dog, let him die for Bro Bei!”
What Qi Changsheng said seemed to make sense.
Out of selfishness, they could choose to kill Yin Wuqiu but they would not gain anything from it, and would perhaps even induce a loss at the end of the day.
If they were to act out of loyalty towards Chen Xiaobei, they should allow Yin Wuqiu to live out his life as a slave to Chen Xiaobei. That would be the most rational choice.
Chen Xiaobei’s eyes lit up at this. He could surely use a man like him! He would not have thought of saying something like that. Thank god for Qi Changsheng who helped solve Chen Xiaobei’s problem.
“Let’s not kill him! Let him live to serve Bro Bei!”
“Yeah! Let’s not kill him! Our strengths are limited, and we can’t do much to help Bro Bei. Keeping this strong dog could be beneficial to him!”
“Bro Bei! We won’t kill him! Don’t make things difficult for him! Let him show you some devotion. That’s more important!”
The men had completely changed their minds. It seemed that now, Chen Xiaobei stood at an irreplaceable position in their hearts!
These men would not just stop at giving up a chance for revenge, but they would also be willing to put down their hearts desire for the sake of Chen Xiaobei!
“Alright! Since everyone has decided, then I’ll let him live!” Chen Xiaobei nodded. To be able to keep an Ethereal Cultivation dog was an incredible achievement!
“Bro Bei! Let me bring you to the treasury! Everything in there belongs to you!” Yin Wuqiu said.
Not killing Yin Wuqiu was the right decision!
“Alright!” Chen Xiaobei’s heart did a little dance.
He had already had his eyes set on the treasury since he found out about it. Now that the problems had been taken care of, it was the season to harvest!
Everyone followed Yin Wuqiu to the Penglai treasury.
It was hidden deep underground, and the passage there was like a maze that was secured with all sorts of deviations and magical enhancements. If Yin Wuqiu had not led them there, they would have never been able to locate it.
Finally, they arrived at the door of the treasury.
Just like what Yin Wuqiu said, there was no keyhole. In its place stood a Talisman Rune.
Yin Wuqiu walked up to the door and placed his palm on it. There was a massive surge of energy very much like tides parting.
He was removing the Defensive Magical Formation on the door.
Crack!
Once the formation was broken, the door was unlocked. Yin Wuqiu pushed the thick, stone door open with one arm! Everyone was shocked when they saw what was inside the vault.
The treasury was a vast hall, and was at least 100 times bigger than the Zhuang family’s treasury.
The tens of thousands of wooden shelves that lined the dark pathways were stocked to the brim with all kinds of rare resources.
Yin Shaohua had peviously told them that this place held the abundant resources that Penglai Faction had collected over a period of hundreds of years. He was not exaggerating!
Herbal medicines. Those were the first thing Chen Xiaobei spotted. They came in all shapes, colors and sizes, and every one of them well-aged. There were also more than a hundred types of Spiritual-tier herbs among them!
Amongst them, Chen Xiaobei discovered herbs that could be used to concoct Skybreaking Cultivation Pills and Heavenly Dog Biscuits!
Even though the recipies were incomplete, to be able to get even a portion of it was already considered a sizeable yield.
Let us not forget how long, and how many Spiritual Stones it took Chen Xiaobei to collect a similar amount of herbal medicines.
This harvest was sizeable, and was of great value!
Chen Xiaobei’s eyes then wandered over to the collection of weapons and armor.
Swords, guns, knives, axes, armor; name it and they had it all. What’s more, they had all been crafted beautifully and were of excellent quality.
The weapons in the Zhuang Family’s treasury paled in comparison.
If these weapons were equipped and given to Xia Hanjiang and the others, their combat power could be greatly boosted.
As his eyes wandered across the room, Chen Xiaobei spotted the heap of martial arts manuals.
These things did not appeal much to Chen Xiaobei.
His martial art skills had come from the Three Realms Red Envelope group. And the skill that he was currently training was the powerful Scripture of Heaven and Earth. That was why Chen Xiaobei did not care too much about ordinary earthly martial arts manuals. But Xia Hanjiang and the others could barely hold down their excitement when they saw those manuals, looking at them as if it were printed in gold.
Even Liu Xuanxin was bursting with delight. Any martial arts manuals here were superior to all that Xuanjian faction had.
Chen Xiaobei was perceptive enough to let them collect whichever manuals they liked.
They were so excited they practically flew to the racks to make their selection.
Even Liu Xuanxin could not hold back. She wanted to pick out a few manuals as well.
Only Chen Xiaobei and Yin Wuqiu continued further into the treasury.
The deeper they went, the more invaluable the things were.
The first thing that caught Chen Xiaobei’s eye were pieces of top-notch jade stones.
Jade stones contained Spiritual Qis, a good ingredient for crafting Talisman Rune for Magical Formation. When Chen Xiaobei setup the Thunder Pool Formation, a lot of jade stones had to be used to craft the Talisman Rune.
There were about a dozen jade stones before him, and they were of much better quality than the ones that he previously used. Seemingly, Penglai Faction had spent a great deal of time and effort to collect all these jade stones.
With these jade stones, the next time Chen Xiaobei would not have to worry about not having enough components the next time he setup a Magical Formation. On top of that, the effects of the Magical Formation would be amplified as well.
After the jade stones, Chen Xiaobei saw some unusual looking pieces of metal.
“What are these?” he asked.
“Well, all these are crafting materials that we’ve accumulated over hundreds of years. Some of them were formed naturally, while some were acquired through a refining process. All of them were Spiritual-tier items regardless!
“They are all Spiritual Items?!” Chen Xiaobei’s eyes sparkled. “Spiritual Items can be acquired through refining too?!”
“Yes.” Yin Wuqiu nodded as he picked up a golden piece of metal. “Take this Heavenly Fire Gold Essence for example. We need 500 pounds of stainless steel to produce one gram of it! That being said, this piece of Heavenly Fire Gold Essence was crafted with 50,000 gross tons of stainless steel!”
“50,000 tons?!” Chen Xiaobei was very surprised to hear that. The amount of resources and manpower that Penglai Faction had spent on crafting this piece of metal was beyond astounding!
After they walked past these metals, they reached the end of the treasury, where a wooden rack stood.
Considering its location, the things on it were the most valuable in the entire treasury!
