BXBX NOVEL Chapter 406 - 406: Killed in One Strike (1)
Whoosh.
Just as Shen Ping’s gaze shifted to the Snow clan cultivator who had walked out of the flying ship, he sensed an extremely powerful divine sense wreaking havoc. The An sisters and Jing siblings beside him felt their bodies turn cold in the face of this divine sense pressure. Even the magic power in their bodies seemed to be about to freeze.
He frowned slightly and released a fluorescent light from his body. It quickly formed a spiritual barrier that enveloped everyone around him. Only then did An Zhi, Jing Huilan, and the others feel much better.
On the other hand, the cultivators of the Snow Clan’s caravan paid no attention to Shen Ping and the others and directly stepped into the entrance of the Frost Wolf Swamp.
“It’s the Snow Clan’s Liluo Clan. The Snow Clan used to be a vassal of our human race. This Liluo Clan used to cling to our Jing Clan.” Jing Huilan said simply.
An Zhi sighed and said, “The former glory of the human race is gone. Even the Snow Clan can ignore our human race. I wonder how long such a life will last.”
The others did not say anything. As long as the Myriad Spirit Ranking was still around, the situation of the human race would become worse and worse. This was an indisputable fact. However, cultivators fought with the heavens to begin with. Everyone believed that as long as they fought for opportunities and cultivated diligently, they would be able to break free one day.
They waited at the entrance for about twenty minutes. The flying ship of the Black Fiend Valley’s human caravan appeared.
Soon, several elders of the An family and the Nascent Soul cultivators of the other families walked out one after another.
“Zhi’er greets Third Uncle.”
“Yue’er greets…”
Shen Ping and the others bowed. An Hongyu stroked his beard with a gentle smile and said, “There’s no need to be so polite.” His gaze landed on Shen Ping and he cupped his hands. “This must be Fellow Daoist Shen that Zhi’er mentioned. Nice to meet you.”
The other Black Fiend Valley cultivators could not help but look at Shen Ping. Some even secretly used their divine sense to investigate, but it was a pity that they were like clay oxen in the sea. They immediately felt that the person in front of them was not simple.
Shen Ping cupped his hands and said, “Senior An, you’re welcome.”
They exchanged a few simple pleasantries, then the group walked towards the entrance.
During this period, An Hongyu said, “Fellow Daoist Shen, the Frost Wolf Clan has impounded more than 100,000 spirit stones worth of resources for many caravans of our Black Fiend Valley this time. Although these resources are not small, they are still tolerable to us. But the Frost Wolf Clan’s main goal is not just these impounded resources, but to completely monopolize this trade route. This is what we can’t tolerate.”
The other cultivators of the Black Fiend Valley were mainly from the An family. However, when they saw this situation, they could not help but look sideways and secretly think about Shen Ping’s strength. He could actually make the An family talk to him in such an attitude.
Shen Ping said in a low voice, “Senior An, the Frost Wolf Clan is not strong to begin with. They probably have something to rely on to dare to do this.”
An Hongyu nodded. “That’s right. This is also the reason why we’re afraid. The Stone Tiger Clan in Gray Stone City didn’t show any attitude. We deduce that it’s very likely that the Stone Tiger Clan is secretly plotting this.
“The caravans of the other races will also come to negotiate. When the time comes, we’ll just act according to the situation.”
They had already arrived at the Frost Wolf Clan. Several huge Frost Wolf guards glanced at An Hongyu and the others coldly. “Cultivators of Black Fiend Valley, our Frost Wolf Clan’s Patriarch is receiving cultivators from other clans. Wait here for a while!”
And they waited for a few days. Caravans from other clans came in one after another, but the Frost Wolf Clan’s Patriarch didn’t have time to receive An Hongyu and the others. However, An Hongyu and the other cultivators weren’t in a hurry. Instead, they patiently sipped their tea and waited.
Five days later, a Frost Wolf guard led An Hongyu and the others to a spacious wooden hall. They had just entered when many gazes gathered. The cultivators of the Snow Clan, Ice Clan, and other clans looked at An Hongyu.
“So it’s the third son of the An family of the Black Fiend Valley. Tsk tsk, your An family is really at ease. They actually let a Nascent Soul cultivator like you come over to discuss such a big matter.”
An Hongyu quickly faced the leader of the Frost Wolves, who was sitting in the center. He bowed and cupped his hands. “My ancestor is in seclusion and can’t come. I hope you can forgive me.”
The Frost Wolf Clan’s Patriarch, who was more than three meters tall, smiled faintly and said, “It’s fine. Sit.”
Most of the caravans that came to negotiate this time were Nascent Souls. On the other hand, a few of the Snow Clan had Divine Transformation cultivators. This put a lot of pressure on it. As for the human race, it did not take them to heart at all.
The hall was very spacious. Even though there were so many cultivators from various races sitting together, it did not seem crowded.
As soon as he sat down, the Divine Transformation cultivator leading the Snow Clan said, “Clan Leader of Frost Wolf, the profits earned by the caravan are already very small. Another 30% increase in the fee is really too high. It’s very difficult for us to bear.”
“That’s right. You also have to consider our survival.”
“If you ask for too much, we can only stop the caravan.”
The cultivators of the other races also announced. If not for the fact that they were afraid of the Stone Tiger Clan behind the Frost Wolf Clan, the merchant cultivators of the various clans would not have taken them seriously at all. Not to mention anything else, just this ancestor of the Snow Clan’s Liluo Clan could destroy the entire Frost Wolf Clan.
Not to mention so many Nascent Soul experts present. However, the situation was better than the person.
Even though it was only one of the vassals of the Stone Tiger Clan, the attitude of the Frost Wolf Clan was very unyielding. The clan leader even smiled faintly and said, “Everyone, you and I are both clear about the interests of the trading path around Gray Stone City. It’s not a big deal for me to ask for this little fee. Of course, if any of you want to stop the caravan’s operation, you can do as you please. However, as long as you want to pass through the Frost Wolf Swamp, you have to do it according to the rules of my Frost Wolf Clan.”
All the cultivators from the various clans, including An Hongyu, frowned when they heard this..
