Chapter 408: Chapter 404: Mi Chu’s Judgment

Translator: 549690339 |

“Either hand over a hundred billion, or leave Young Master Chu behind, tell me, what is your choice?” Tang Luo asked calmly, arms crossed over his chest, giving the choice to Mi Jing.

He had never faced such a difficult situation before. Mi Jing’s face darkened considerably. He had no authority to agree to a ransom of a hundred billion, and he certainly couldn’t leave Mi Chu behind.

Even though he was a powerhouse of the Fierce Realm and the lord of a branch of the Mi Clan, he had been serving in the Martial Hall since he ascended from the Mortal Realm. He was a pure warrior. Had Tang Luo not brought it up, he would not have known why the Elder Council valued Mi Chu so much.

He had originally thought it was because of Mi Chu’s talent. It now seemed that, apart from his talent, the investment that the Mi Clan had made in Mi Chu alone had already reached the standard of five Fierce Realm powerhouses, and this investment was still increasing.

He used to not understand what it meant to be important in the future, but now he knew. It was a matter of hundreds of billions, so it couldn’t be taken lightly!

Although he did not know how the clan’s upper echelons judged whether these investments were worthwhile, Mi Jing had made a calculation in his heart. Mi Chu’s life was worth more than his own.

But facing Tang Luo across from him and his old fierce competitor beside him,

Mi Jing felt exceptionally tricky.

At that moment, the silent Mi Chu suddenly burst into laughter he could no longer suppress. “Heh…Hahaha…Haha!

This sudden madness drew everyone’s attention. The pale-faced Mi Chu raised his head to look directly at Tang Luo, his eyes filled with excitement and pleasure. “I understand now. All of this was designed by you!” “Oh?” Tang Luo raised an eyebrow, a half-smiling expression on his face. He sneered, “Wasn’t the challenge letter sent to the Tang Clan1 s headquarters by you? How did it become my design?”

“It was Elder Xu Yin who told you, wasn’t it!” Mi Chu spoke with full conviction on his pale face. “The Xu Sheng family, known for their profound research on bloodlines, must have noticed, despite my best efforts to conceal it during the competition. Otherwise, why would you be so afraid?!”

Tang Luo is afraid? Has Mi Chu gone mad? The spectators who heard this looked at each other, not knowing what to say.

But Mi Chu looked at the silent Tang Luo and thought he had guessed correctly!

It was not surprising for the Tang Family’s Wind Media Department to know that the Mi Clan had increased their order for spirit beasts ten years ago. It was incredible, however, for Tang Luo to say that these spirit beasts were not put into the South Ridge Beast Valley of the Mi family, but were instead devoured by him!

This was a secret known only to the Elder Council, and the Wind Media Department of the Mi Clan was located in South Ridge Beast Valley. It was impossible for the Tang Clan to monitor the movements of dozens of spirit beasts in the valley every year.

The question then was, how did Tang Luo know this secret? He had been pondering this ever since Tang Luo made his statement.

The conclusion he came to was Xu old Winner, who had competed with him in the arena. The Xu Sheng family had fully exposed his secret to Tang Luo!

Why was he so unwilling to accept that Xiao Ziyu is known as the top ranker in Xiling after ascending from the Mortal Realm? Because he had used only 70% of his power in the competition with Xu elder Winner. The amazing part of the beast’s soul bloodline was not fully displayed, all because he was afraid that Xu elder Winner would see his secret of owning thousands of beast souls.

But now it seemed, even though he concealed it deeply, he was still seen through. The Xu Clan from Yuanzhou, deserving of its reputation! “What rank is your transformed bloodline? Fourth grade, or fifth grade?” Mi Chu’s eyes lit up with madness. Since his secret had been discovered, he was going to expose one of Tang Luo’s secrets to seek revenge, making everyone know that it was not his lack of skill, but that the Tang Family had invested more resources in Tang Luo!

“How many spirit medicinal herbs has the Tang Clan used to enhance your bloodline to that level? Eight hundred thousand, or… a million?!”

With Mi Chu’s question that echoed in all directions, the onlookers were once again in an uproar. Their eyes focused on the young man dressed in black, and they looked even more shocked.

Tang Luo’s question undoubtedly confirmed Mi Chu’s statement, but it greatly shocked everyone’s minds. It took an investment of fifty billion a year for ten years to create a top-ranked Young Master Chu, and yet Tang Luo, who had only ascended the Mortal Realm for two years, had used a hundred billion…

Was the gap between people… really that huge?

Although what Mi Chu said was not entirely correct, it was basically true. Therefore, Tang Luo had nothing to deny. Whether it was the secret arts enhancement or bloodline enhancement, the end goal was to make himself stronger. So, Tang Luo tilted his head in confusion and asked, “Is this your last word?”

Regardless of how shocked the onlookers were, the conversation between the two young masters continued.

“Your last words??” Mi Chu seemed to regain his confidence, a proud and complacent look on his face. “No, no, no, I just realized some things, and understood why you would go to such lengths to kill me, even at the risk of exposing your biggest secret!”

“Oh?” Tang Luo looked somewhat curious, but his heart was also taken aback. The Tang Clan had been very secretive in its preparations for war. At present, only the Elder Council and a few leaders knew of the imminent major war. If this secret were exposed because of his actions today, it would be a loss greater than gains.

Thinking about this, although Tang Luo’s expression remained calm, his heart felt somewhat anxious. Yet, he knew that anxiety could not solve any problems, so he observed Mi Chu’s expression even more calmly, noticing some details.

If Mi Chu truly knew that Tang Luo wanted to kill him because the Tang and Mi Clans were about to go to war, he would not be talking so much right now. He would certainly announce it loudly so that everyone could hear it. As there were still many members of the Mi Clan in the Jianglin area, along with their guards and warriors, a great battle would inevitably attract people from the city. Without a doubt, the Tian Yu Camp of the Mi Clan would arrive faster than the Tang Family’s Martial God Army!

It could therefore be inferred that what Mi Chu figured out had nothing to do with the war between the two clans.

If Mi Chu had not discovered Tang Luo’s real intention, then Tang Luo wanted to know: just what had Young Master Chu imagined?

Indeed, before he could ask, Mi Chu, looking complacent, pointed at Tang Luo and shouted, “Your bloodline, it has been strengthened to its limit, hasn’t it?!!!”

“????” Tang Luo was confused, not understanding what Mi Chu was talking about at all.

But Mi Chu, who believed he held the truth, did not stop. He mistook Tang Luo’s confusion as shock at having his secret discovered, and continued loudly, “Whether it’s your silver giant form, or Tang Qingshan’s ancient demon form.” Mi Chu stretched out his hand and shook it around his waist, his eyes full of scorn “The extent to which the transformed bloodline can reach is just there. Elder Xu must have told you the power of the beast soul bloodline, which is why you are so eager to kill me!”

“Because only at this moment do you have a chance to defeat me. As time goes on, the gap between you and me will only get larger! By the time we reach the Fierce Realm, I won’t even need to lift a finger. I could just command the savage beasts and they would tear your giant form into pieces!”
