Protect Our Patriarch

Book 2: Chapter 105: I want that Spirit Artifact



Wang Shouzhe was well aware of the significance of organizing and distributing the spoils of war.

Many noble families that were once on good terms had fallen out due to mishandling of interests, leading to the collapse of their relationships.

This time, the collection and tallying of the spoils were mainly overseen by the two Ancestors, Zhong Xiangyang and Xu Beichen, with Fang You'an listing the inventory. Each item was clearly detailed.

"The biggest prizes are Yin Yuzhe's top-grade storage ring and the magical treasure, the Yin Sha Demon Blade," Fang You'an said, his mood slightly buoyant. After all, that was a genius of the heavens.

Such geniuses were highly valued by all forces and were usually not sent on extremely dangerous missions that could lead to their demise. In fact, during some perilous training missions, they would often be secretly protected by teachers and elders.

Of course, this is not to say that geniuses never fall, but the probability is smaller.

Yin Yuzhe, as a genius, met his end here due to his overconfidence, wanting to monopolize the benefits of this Blood Nest base. Had he been more cautious and invited one or two peers of the same level, the outcome might not have been so dire.

"Inside the storage ring, there are 'Top Gold' coins amounting to a hundred thousand, and the imprinted versions of the 'Extreme Yin Xuan Sha Technique' Lingtai Chapter and Tianren Chapter." When it came to the Extreme Yin Xuan Sha Technique, Fang You'an sneered, "Yin Yuzhe really had the audacity to imprint even the sect's profound techniques and carry them with him. He must have been planning to cultivate his own power in secret."

Sect secrets were always closely guarded. Yin Yuzhe's actions, if known by the Yin Sha Sect, would surely lead to severe punishment.

Upon hearing this, Wang Shouzhe's eyes lit up, "Brother You'an, what would be the consequences if I were to cultivate this Extreme Yin Xuan Sha Technique?"

"You're not..." Fang You'an started to say but stopped abruptly, coughing after glancing at Long Yan, "This Extreme Yin Xuan Sha Technique is one of the top techniques of the Yin Sha Sect. If not of the Yin Sha bloodline, one usually needs to start cultivating from a young age and gradually alter and strengthen the Yin Sha bloodline. Moreover, a proper cultivation environment and guidance from the sect are needed, otherwise, it's very easy to encounter problems."

"Actually, within the sanctum of the Xuegong Academy, there are also imprinted copies of the Extreme Yin Xuan Sha Technique. However, the academy only uses them for reference, and they're not of much use. But if you were to rashly cultivate it, you might attract the hostility of the Yin Sha Sect."

With these words from Fang You'an.

Xu Beichen and Zhong Xiangyang, who were somewhat tempted, immediately dismissed the idea. They couldn't afford to provoke a behemoth like the Yin Sha Sect.

"It's fine, I'm just taking it for reference," Wang Shouzhe said with a smile, "After all, I have a great dislike for the Yin Sha Sect, and who knows, we might become enemies one day. It's good to learn their methods for precaution."

"Taking it for reference is fine," Fang You'an nodded, "After all, our Daqian is at odds with Daqin, and you are also a direct disciple of the Xuegong Academy. As long as you keep it private and not widely known, it should be fine. I doubt those big shots from the Yin Sha Sect would dare to blatantly enter their territory to cause trouble. After all, there are also people from their side studying the secrets of our Zifu Xuegong Academy. Of course, you should be aware that the imprinted copy might not be complete, and you can only pick some useful parts to digest."

In fact, Fang You'an was well aware that it wasn't Wang Shouzhe who needed this, but his junior sister Long Yan. However, Long Yan's main cultivation was the "Xuan Bing True Technique," and if she were to also cultivate the Yin Sha, she wouldn't need to practice the Extreme Yin Xuan Sha Technique from start to finish, but only absorb its essence.

If it were anyone else with such a request, Fang You'an would most likely refuse. However, there was no issue with junior sister Long Yan, even the master Bing Lan had already promised her that she could cultivate a bit of the Yin Sha.

Then, Fang You'an enumerated the treasures within Yin Yuzhe's storage ring, all rare and precious natural treasures, which together were worth hundreds of thousands of Top Gold.

Thus, just the items on Yin Yuzhe alone amounted to over a million Top Gold. Not to mention the coffin that contained the Yin Sha Xuan corpse and the corpse itself.

"Truly worthy of being a direct disciple," Wang Shouzhe also sighed, "Indeed wealthy!"

Then his eyes began to wander over Fang You'an.

Fang You'an felt uncomfortable under his gaze and swallowed hard, "Junior brother Shouzhe, don't look at me like that, I'm poorer than Yin Yuzhe."

"Brother You'an is too modest," Wang Shouzhe chuckled, "Don't hide your wealth, I won't rob you."

Fang You'an shook his head helplessly. This kid indeed wouldn't rob him, but when it came to wealth, who could compare to the peace and prosperity of Wang's Clan? Even some sixth-rank noble families might not have an income comparable to the Wang's, right?

Afterward, Fang You'an began to introduce other treasures. Four low-grade spiritual weapons, two mid-grade spiritual weapons, two mid-grade storage rings, and various resources within the storage rings, this batch added up to tens of thousands more.

Moreover, the most valuable were the seven Bridal Blood Gu and two Bridal Blood Gu Kings. If used well, these could potentially bring a rise to one's family.

Whether it was Xu Beichen or Zhong Xiangyang, their breathing became a bit rapid.

"Of course, besides these, the most valuable is this floating island," Fang You'an said seriously, "This island is founded on two top-grade spiritual veins of Xuan Ice and Yin Sha. Once cleaned up, it can cultivate high-grade spiritual plants of both attributes. Just now, junior sister Lu Wei has already calculated that with sufficient investment in manpower and resources for development and cultivation, there will be at least a few hundred thousand in annual yield, and with long-term management, it could be even more..."

A few hundred thousand in annual yield? Possibly even more?

The faces of Xu Beichen and Zhong Xiangyang turned a bit red. Even for a Tianren noble family, such a figure was hard to control.

"However, because of those Blood Nests on the island, as well as some of the technical data from the Blood Nest base," Fang You'an said gravely, "these must be handed over to the Xuegong Academy, as the academy will not allow such dangerous technical data to leak out."

"No problem at all," Xu Beichen and Zhong Xiangyang hurriedly said, "It's only right for the Xuegong Academy to reclaim those evil techniques, we won't try to touch them.""In that case, our academy is willing to allocate more floating island shares to everyone," Fang You'an nodded in satisfaction, pleased that everyone was still quite sensible.

"Hold on!" Wang Shouzhe interjected, "What about the talking Spirit Artifact?"

"Spirit Artifact?" Fang You'an frowned slightly, "Such things are always to be reclaimed by the academy."

"I'll take that Spirit Artifact," Wang Shouzhe declared.

"?" Fang You'an looked puzzled, "What do you want with a Spirit Artifact? It's a standard-issue Spirit Artifact from the Blood Nest base, containing a wealth of Blood Nest technological data, which we can't just hand over to you."

"The technological data can be transferred," Wang Shouzhe chuckled, "Just give me a blank one, but keep its intelligence intact."

In Wang Shouzhe's view, this kind of Spirit Artifact was somewhat akin to artificial intelligence. He wasn't coveting much, just wondering if it could be loaded with a system or something...

After all, always simulating a system with a little notebook was just too undignified.
