Chapter 211: Chapter 5 Business Opportunity [Seeking monthly ticket!]_1

"Shu Mountain is now divided into three parts, Silver Sword is exhausted. In my opinion, why not form an alliance with Jiang to resist Xu, and slowly figure it out. Wait until we are fully prepared and the time is ripe, then strike swiftly and fiercely, by then, domination can be achieved."

On the small hill of Silver Sword Peak, the Mountain God Sacrifice Team gathers once again, with Henchman A leading the discussion, waving a feather fan majestically.

"That makes sense," Chu Liang nodded lightly, "as long as we unite and work together, we will surely achieve good results."

"We will spare no effort, even if it means sacrificing our lives." Henchman A asserted.

"Alright, stop being so poetic." Lin Bei pulled him down and said, "In my opinion, both Senior Sister Jiang and Senior Brother Xu are good, no need to offend either side. We can just stroll between the two parties and get benefits. Build high walls, accumulate food, and slowly claim royalty."

Coming from Jade Sword Peak, naturally, he did not want to oppose Xu Ziyang.

"That also makes sense." Chu Liang nodded again.

"It’s not easy to get the best of both worlds, my Lord, don’t listen to his nonsense!" Henchman A anxiously retorted.

"Who do you say is spreading nonsense?" Lin Bei glared at him.

"Obviously, it is you!" Henchman A responded.

"You are talking nonsense!"

"You’re the one talking nonsense!"

"..."

"Enough, enough," Chu Liang smiled helplessly, stopping the two of them, "I’ll decide on what to do, just adapt to changes at the time."

"They’re here!" Shang Ziliang pointed into the distance.

Several Sword Auras arrived swiftly, the team from Jade Sword Peak and the team from Biluo Peak approached from two directions and landed at the same time.

Today was the day agreed upon for the three parties to negotiate, and the venue was set on Silver Sword Peak. It’s unavoidable to have many eyes on other peaks.

There’s none of this trouble on Silver Sword Peak.

"Senior Sister Jiang, you’re here!" Chu Liang greeted her, then nodded lightly to Xu Ziyang, "Senior Brother Xu."

"Take out your things." Xu Ziyang did not bother with pleasantries and spoke directly.

"Okay." Chu Liang and Jiang Yuebai took out their respective scrolls.

Chu Liang held two scrolls, which he had studied carefully before. Although the pictures on them depicted landscapes, the ink was layered so much that nothing could be discerned from them.

Under the witness of everyone, the three of them placed their four scrolls together. The pictures were similarly inked in gold, layered on top of one another, depicting a vaguely discernible landscape, but the specific scene could not be seen clearly.

"I still can’t tell where it is." Xu Ziyang declared.

Soon, their respective teams had copied the pictures. It was not difficult for the cultivators to reproduce the details of a picture completely from memory, let alone copying directly from it.

However, even copying didn’t make much difference.

Because they simply couldn’t understand the content.

They had thought that when the clues from the second stage were put together, they would obtain a map, but who knew that this picture was another riddle.

Chu Liang looked at the picture and pondered, "Then, let’s go back and think about it respectively. The trade is completed. Who can find the answer afterwards depends on their abilities."

Jiang Yuebai agreed.

They came in a hurry, and they left in a hurry, all going back to study the scroll painting.

Before Jiang Yuebai left, Chu Liang secretly stopped her and told her about the Lunar Sect’s pursuit of Immortal Qi Jing.

She was extremely calm, nonchalantly nodding her head, seemingly undisturbed.

...

After the people of Biluo Peak and Jade Sword Peak left, Chu Liang immediately gathered his team together.

"Come on, I have something to explain to you," Chu Liang beckoned.

"Big brother! Do you have an important discovery?" Shang Ziliang asked excitedly.

"Yes." Chu Liang nodded, then said, "I have discovered... a business opportunity."

"Huh?" The group was taken aback.

"There were more than a hundred teams who joined the Mountain God Festival on Shu Mountain, but there were only three of us that got the second stage clues. If this were in previous years, the other teams would have been eliminated during the first stage," Chu Liang said.

"That’s right," Shang Ziliang concurred.

He too felt a pang of emotion. If he didn’t ride on Chu Liang’s coattails, they might have been eliminated in this stage too.

"If someone told them that they could buy a complete set of the second clue for fifty Sword Coins, do you think they would buy it?" Chu Liang asked.

"Huh?" Lin Bei said, "Of course they would buy. That’s equivalent to each person in a team contributing ten Sword Coins to rejoin the game. But... which of the teams that have already gotten the hint would be dumb enough to sell it at a bargain? Wait a minute..."

He looked at Chu Liang’s smile, seeming to understand his intentions.

"Boss, you’re not planning to sell this scroll, are you?" Henchman A looked slightly surprised, "Isn’t that just allowing more people to compete with us..."

"Can you figure out the secrets hidden in this scroll?" Chu Liang asked in return.

"I... I can’t," Henchman A replied quietly.

"If you, with your wisdom, cannot decipher the mystery, how could those who lost to us in the first stage surpass you?" Chu Liang looked at him with bright eyes.

Henchman A’s eyes flashed with surprise, then as if ignited by Chu Liang’s stare, he heavily bowed his head and said, "Indeed!"

"But..." Shang Ziliang still seemed to feel something not quite right.

"No need to hesitate, just listen to me," Chu Liang patted his shoulder and reassured, "You all set off immediately, separately look for the team leaders for a secret negotiation. Say ... say that you stole this secret from inside our team without my knowledge and sell it for fifty Sword Coins a piece. I bet not many teams would refuse. We could at least make several thousand Sword Coins from this deal."

This was no trivial sum.

And it almost cost them nothing.

"But what if other teams also start selling it?" Lin Bei asked.

Chu Liang responded, "That’s why I told you guys to act quickly and discreetly. Finish the deal before the news gets passed around. After all, who would want to increase their competitors for a bit of change?"

Upon finishing, he saw that everyone was looking at him with odd expressions.

"..." Chu Liang gave an awkward laugh, "This isn’t chump change for me, this is big money!"

Shang Ziliang is well aware of Chu Liang’s love of money. His own monthly expenditures were still being deducted by over half by his father until he had saved up five thousand Sword Coins. He could be considered one of Chu’s victims.

In fact, Chu Liang doesn’t really lack money now, but how could he miss an opportunity? Nobody would say no to more Sword Coins. Especially after arriving at the Earth Barrier, the Fourth Realm, Fifth Realm, Sixth Realm...they were all resource-sucking, saving more is always right.

Under Chu Liang’s urging, everyone quickly got moving.

...

But Chu Liang himself did not join in, instead returning to his cabin. Not that he let his little brothers do all the work while he lounged around, but he had other things to handle.

Back in his room, he set up the large scroll he had been sketching out in a circular manner, placing it in correspondance with the cardinal directions. The flags on Sword Sheath Peak that day had had specific orientations, he couldn’t mess that up.

After arranging the four scrolls, Chu Liang placed a candle in the center, making it look like a lantern. Then he blocked all light from the doors and windows, lightly lit the candle.

Whoosh.

The fire projected onto the wall through the scroll, the complicated patterns on the four sides became clearly visible despite their disorder. The patterns extended out, as though a real jungle was being projected.

The jungle was dense, with strange shaped rocks indicating that it surrounded a lush valley surrounded by green mountains.

There was such a mystery hidden inside.

How could he possibly sell it before he deciphered the second clue?

In fact, when Chu Liang saw the unorderly pattern even after the four scrolls were pieced together, he realized this couldn’t just be an ordinary map, he needed to think more intellectually. He had once watched a kind of 3D movie, and this now reminded him of it.

The sketched painting still wasn’t quite the same as the original, if it were the pattern on the flags, a complete projection could produce a kind of immersive magical experience.

The design was really tricky.

Chu Liang looked around, even though it was somewhat blurry, but he was still able to roughly identify the location of this mountain valley.

He had been to this place before!
