Chapter 1423: Occupying the Nest

Translator: Law Editor: Hitesh_

Elders from the non-humankind families, which would raise slave-hunting troops to hunt human slaves, were definitely not free from corruption.

The attraction of a human marquis' territory to these Yu Clan people surprised Yu Mu and Feng Xing. More and more noble elders rushed to the castle of the Glowing Gold Chamber of Commerce, drank the poisoned tea, then fell to the ground one after another, foaming at the mouths without any vigilance or preparation.

'Liang Zhu City is peaceful and safe'… This fact turned these elders into tender flowers in a greenhouse, almost ending up being killed by Yu Mu, Feng Xing, and their people, who were like a cruel hurricane.

Very 'amicably', Wuzhi Qi and a group of his children communicated with these elders five times in the dungeon. All kinds of clubs whipped on the bodies of these weak, thin noble Yu Clan people, causing muffled swishing noises. Soon, these elders became the most loyal 'guides'.

Hundreds of types of magic curses were cast at these elders, and the eggs of tens of kinds of fierce Gu bugs were buried inside their bodies. Then, a trace of each of their souls was forcibly drawn into the Disease God Streamer. After all this, one needed not worry that they might betray them.

As appendant families of the Piji Family, Pi Family, Ji Family, and Chi Family owned broad territories, right around the huge mansion that belonged to the Piji Family, surrounding the territory of the Piji Family.

A large group of carriages lined up straight, heading towards the Chi Family's garden. Running rumblingly on both sides of the carriages were troops of heavily armed human warriors, whose faces were covered in masks. They guarded, or escorted the carriages to proceed ahead.

Inevitably, on the way back to the Chi Family garden from the castle, the troop would pass the mansion that belonged to the Piji Family. Before a giant arch, a group of energetic Jia Clan warriors guarded in a straight line, vigilantly scanning across every living creature on the road.

A luxuriously dressed Yu Clan young man held his hands behind his body and lazily stood under the arch. Seeing the troop, his eyes shone as he slowly waved his hands.

A few Jia Clan warriors immediately rushed up, spread their arms, and forced the troop to stop.

Chi Li hurriedly came out from a carriage and walked to the Yu Clan man with a humble smile. From about a hundred meters away from him, Chi Li laughed exaggeratedly and said, "Dear Childe Piji Xing, it's been a while! The hurricane gold falcon I let my people send to you the last time, did you like it? That was a top-grade one!"

"Just so-so, tasted rather delicious, but too skinny!" Piji Xing lazily greeted Chi Li and said, "I heard you went out with your slave-hunting troop, right? How was it? So many of you rushing back, the harvest must be good, right?"

Chi Li's face twitched intensely. He spent great efforts to get the hurricane gold falcon for Piji Xing, the most famous playboy in the Piji Family, because he wanted to leave a good impression. But, Piji Xing actually ate the falcon, which could serve as a top-grade battle beast! A hurricane gold falcon, a top-grade fierce bird, it could even become a peak-Divine-Magus-level, an enormous spirit creature, when it matured! Piji Xing was indeed the most well-known playboy in his family. How could he eat such a precious animal?

"Only a noble being like you can enjoy a dish like that!" Chi Li bowed to Piji Xing and said, "Thanks to you, the harvest this time is indeed not bad. The family will earn a huge profit!"

Piji Xing's eyes shone immediately. He chuckled and said, "A huge profit? Perfect! Let me advance my share! Damn it! The old dudes in the family all left with all warriors for the war. The treasury is sealed. Now, I can only have a poor little allowance each month. How can that be enough?"

Piji Xing made a few steps to Chi Li, directly reached out his hand, and said, "See, I'm lucky, that I ran into you. Let me advance my share. Let me see, it should at least be a million…No, ten million jade coins, right? Ah, give me my father's share too. Without a billion jade coins, he would be unhappy!"

Chi Li gave an embarrassed grin.

Piji Xing was the worst, but the most powerful playboy in the Piji Family. He was the younger brother of Piji Nu, the Red Sun Emperor, and was favored by many elders. In Liang Zhu City, one would rather offend Piji Nu than Piji Xing, because, if one offended Piji Nu, he would punish strictly according to the laws of Yu Dynasty. But, if it were Piji Xing who one offended, he would destroy one's entire family and kill them through all illegal methods. Piji Xing was evil, and he had done many dirty things.

Grinning honestly, Yu Mu carried ten large bags and sauntered to Chi Li.

Before Yu Mu said a word, Piji Xing impatiently grabbed over all ten bags and opened one to look in it. He saw a hill-huge pile of raw gems, large pieces of jade, and tons of crystals, all of which made his eyes sparkle. Even his breath paused for a second.

Raising his head, Piji Xing smiled brilliantly and said, "Chi Li, as I thought, you are the most loyal minister of the Piij Family. I think you can carry an even more important responsibility. Just wait till my father and old brother return. You will be rewarded. You deserve rewards."

Rolling up his eyes, he threw a sideways glimpse at Yu Mu, then twisted his nose and sneered scornfully, "It's just, your taste is so weird. Is this your new slave? So fat…How much food does he eat in a day? Why don't you get yourself a few young and pretty girls? Well…Alright, you are indeed lowlier than us. I can understand your weird taste."

Carrying the ten bags, Piji Xing left, without glancing back.

Chi Li grinned again embarrassedly. Helplessly shaking his head, he said, "So, Childe Piji Xing, if you have the time, I'll find a day to bring you some interesting gifts."

Piji Xing waved and laughed, "Gifts? I like the idea! Tomorrow then, bring the gifts to me tomorrow."

The few Jia Clan warriors who stopped the troop returned to the arch and smirked. The troop moved along, past the tremendous mansion and garden of the Piji Family, through a small land of woods that separated the two territories, finally arriving in front of the gate of the Chi Family mansion.

A few Chi Family elders walked out and ordered the guards to open the gate. Then, Chi Li and the other core family members led the way themselves, guiding the human warriors into the mansion. Most of the warriors had been taken away, and now was the weakest period of the Chi Family. Without spending much of efforts, all guards left in the family were captured, all vital areas were occupied, and all defensive formations and seals were taken over by human Maguspriests.

Within a quarter of an hour, the Chi Family mansion, which was as large as a small city, and broad enough to accommodate one hundred thousand people, fell into the hands of Feng Xing and Yu Mu.

A super-long-distance teleporting formation was quickly built in the mansion.
