Chapter 37 Low Tide

Guan Yunwu laughed bitterly. “If this gets to the capital, we’ll be reprimanded.”

Shi Yang raised his head and said indifferently, “What are you afraid of? I brought back such a huge amount of cultivation resources. How could anyone dare to speak anything bad about me!”

Shi Yang turned to look at the group of martial artists in front of him and said coldly, “Get lost, all of you. How dare you take advantage of me? Do you not know how the word ‘death’ is spelled?”

His voice was like a thunderclap that exploded in every martial artist’s ears.

A few others were hoping to sneak around to the other side of the giant whale.

Shi Yang narrowed his eyes, reached for the hilt of his sword, and swung rapidly.

The sword was unsheathed. Like a bolt of lightning, it pierced halfway into the ground behind their legs.

The two people who had moved wailed and fell to the ground. Although their thighs were not yet cut off, there was a big open wound and blood gushed out.

Since then, those martial artists completely gave up and left resentfully.

Since there really was no way to take advantage of Shi Yang, there was no need to sacrifice their lives for this.

The third day.

The heat wave that covered the entire Silver Belt Sea finally subsided. Even the dark clouds in the sky dissipated.

The tide subsided completely at noon on the third day, and the water level returned to normal.

The tide this time lasted for two and a half days. Compared to previous years, it was not considered long.

However, the number of sea beasts that surged up was quite astonishing. This time, almost all the martial artists who survived made a killing

Just the corpses of some small sea beasts picked up from the ground could be sold for a lot of money.

If one was lucky and obtained a green-spotted snake or a higher-level sea beast treasure, he would become rich instantly.

The biggest crisis this time was undoubtedly the Dragon Whale that had come ashore. In comparison, even the previously terrifying ghost-faced four-legged fish was nothing.

The few that came ashore later were even crushed by the Dragon Whales which came ashore at the same time.

The wisest thing Lu Pan did this time was to apply for support from the capital in time. From there, he transferred Shi Yang, the one-star captain of the capital, to help the island town tide through this crisis.

After a few more days of this, four large airships passed through the mist and slowly came in.

The airship bore the insignia of Nance’s military headquarters. This was a military airship.

They did not delay for long. After the handover with the local guardian, Lu Pan, the four airships bound the huge bodies of the Dragon Whale and headed for the capital.

Shi Yang and Guan Yunwu also went.

Meanwhile, a group of reconnaissance personnel was left behind to help Lu Pan investigate if there were any volcanic disasters near the Silver Belt Sea.

However, this had nothing to do with Wang Yu who had returned to the dojo.

After the tide, Wang Yu had enough precious ingredients to eat as much as he wants almost every day.

It was not as calculated as when he had eaten the blood pork previously.

As a result, his proficiency in every Body Tempering Technique increased exponentially.

Ever since he heard that practicing martial arts could prolong one’s life and that Blood Ignition Warriors could live for three hundred years, he was ever more motivated to practice martial arts.

It was as if he was on steroids all day.

In a flash, it was the year 773 of the Blue Star Calendar.

After nearly a year of mining the Purple Coal Mine in the Southern Hill, this mini mineral vein was about to be hollowed out. The vigorous mining work was also coming to an end.

That night, on a mountain not far from the mine.

A group of people with knives and sticks were dressed in asphalt-colored work pants and short shirts. They looked like savages. The leader was a burly man with a black scarf tied around his head. His ape arms were extremely thick and his eyes were fierce.

“Big Brother, just as the information said, it’s not Sun Chengshan who’s in charge of the mine tonight. It’s his disciples. There’s nothing to worry about.” A lackey chuckled.

“Are you sure?” Zhao Yong looked at him. The invisible pressure made his subordinate’s expression stiffen and hurriedly nodded.

He was afraid that if he responded too slowly, he would make his boss unhappy.

“There’s nothing special about those disciples. Most of them are at the second level of the Body Tempering Realm. The slightly stronger one is a little brat called Wang Yu. He’s quite talented and has already cultivated to the fourth level of the Body Tempering Realm.

“However, since you’re the one taking action this time, no matter how powerful a genius is, he will still die in your hands.”

The lackey did not forget to flatter him.

A sinister smile appeared on Zhao Yong’s face. “I like geniuses. I feel a sense of accomplishment after killing them.”

“Yes, yes, yes. Big Brother is invincible. From now on, we’ll follow Big Brother and live a good life!” The lackeys flattered him one after another, making Zhao Yong feel even better.

Waving his hand, Zhao Yong shouted, “Don’t worry, after we snatch this batch of ores, everyone will get a share of the money we earn!”

All the lackeys’ eyes lit up like hungry wolves as they laughed coldly.

At the mine, in some of the mines, the sound of hammering continued, but it was no longer the scene of work that had been in full swing.

“In about half a month, this purple coal mine will be completely hollowed out,” Second Brother Meng said.

He looked at the low mountain that was originally his home. At this moment, it had almost been dug to the ground, and the rubble had piled up into several small mountains.

Wang Yu nodded. “Uncle Meng, you’ve worked hard for more than a year.”

Ever since Sun Chengshan began to break through to the sixth level of the Body Tempering Realm, the management of the mineral vein was mostly handed over to Second Brother Meng.

He would usually send disciples to take turns to help take care of them. He would only step in to settle some troublesome matters. “It’s not hard work. It’s all thanks to you that I can have everything I have today.” Second Brother Meng smiled.

Compared to a year ago, he had changed a lot.

He became more at ease and more confident.

Apart from this mine, Second Brother Meng had also taken the money in his hands and started other businesses in the island town. Now, after a year, he had improved a little.

It could be said that even if this purple coal mine was dug up, Second Brother Meng would still have the ability to continue earning money. He would not just sit around and eat his money.

Even after Wang Yu found out about Second Brother Meng’s actions in the past year, he could not help but sigh at how such a talented businessman was almost buried.

“Looking at the time, your wife should be giving birth soon.” Wang Yu changed the topic.

“Hehe, soon, soon.” Second Brother Meng also looked happy when talking about his second child.

For an ordinary person like him, if his life was good, the first thing he wanted to do was to spread his roots and allow the Meng family to continue and prosper.

There was no family planning rule in town. As long as they could afford it, the more the better.

Wang Yu congratulated him.

Second Brother Meng was chatting happily and said happily, “I plan to name the second child Meng Xieyu[2.Xie: to thank]. Let him remember our benefactor.”

“Uh…” Wang Yu looked helpless. It seemed like the name had been decided long ago.

Second Brother Meng seemed quite satisfied to be able to think of such a cultured name.

Just as the two of them were chatting, a shout suddenly came from outside.

Wang Yu could tell that it was Iron He and the other disciples. Something seemed to have happened.

Outside the mine, seven or eight Shadowless Fist Dojo disciples were fighting a group of masked men.

The other party did not look like ordinary people either. They were all very well-trained and clearly had cultivation.

In particular, the long-armed burly man in the lead easily injured two disciples of the Shadowless Fist Dojo with his ferocious fist technique.

His strength shocked the other disciples.
