Conceited Meridians God - C146
The range of the continent was vast, and there were a large number of people. The resulting value also increased with the progress of society. In the current continent, there were thousands of cities, an uncountable number of people, and even tens of thousands of sects that had undergone cultivation.
With a crowd gathering, there would be the poor and the rich. No matter when, there would always be more people without money than the rich! The imbalance between the two would always lead to many conflicts between rich and poor.
In a certain period of time on the Invigorated Meridian Continent, those rich people who did not have much status or power became the target of many poor people. The bloodshed during this period of time had always caused the majority of the rich to become cautious for a long period of time.
Most of the rich men with silver were low-key. They cherished their lives, afraid that they would suddenly die before their lifespan ran out. They had so much money left over but no way to use it.
They were living in a normal environment, and the quality of life they showed was almost the same as that of the commoners. These people seemed to belong to the lowest class of society, just like the rest who had no money.
But in reality, they were secretly grasping an unimaginable and enviable enormous wealth. For example, before Yan City had settled down in the Zither Sound City, they had relied on their own intelligence to earn tens of millions of silver taels. Later on, because they had hidden away from their enemies, Yan City had retired to the Zither Sound City and settled down in peace.
However, this kind of person couldn’t escape Mu Xinshu’s clutches. The Green Forest Sect now had seven to eight hundred members, and many of them were lackeys that grew up within the Qinyin gang. These hoodlums were more clear than anyone else about the majority of the rich and powerful people living in seclusion in Qinyin City! However, it was because they were weak and the hidden rich were usually equipped with high level cultivators as bodyguards that no one noticed.
Mu Xinshu, Long Chu, and the others were completely shocked by the results of the Qinglin gang’s planned kidnapping these past few days! If they didn’t check, they wouldn’t know, but if they did, they would be shocked. In the entire Zither Sound City, there were tens of millions of rich and powerful people living in seclusion. There were even hundreds of millions of super rich people!
“Alright, if you guys were to say that we have the strength to buy the entire Clear Moon Sword Sect, I will believe it!” Qi Lin’s eyes were bloodshot as he looked eagerly at Mu Xinshu, the Great Heavenly King, and the others in the hall. His breath was heavy, and his face was flushed red.
“There won’t be any problems, right?” However, Qin Xiu De frowned, his expression clearly worried. “The rich and powerful people we kidnapped these days were mostly influential figures in other places! Not just their bodyguards, but also their friends! Most people were related to large sects of cultivation from various places! We’ve almost taken half of them, these people definitely have some grudges in their hearts! Moreover, there were several times that we attacked in the name of the Azure Forest Tri-Sect! ”
Speaking of this issue, Qi Lin, Lin Yan and the others all looked at Mu Xinshu and Long Chu beside them. Lin Yan sighed and said with a sigh, “That’s right! Weren’t our actions these days too eye-catching? I keep having the feeling that my eyelids are jumping nonstop! ”
Long Chu’s expression was indifferent, with a face full of confidence, “No worries!” I’ve already thought about these things, so, other than four or five times making a move, it’s to let people know that our Azure Forest Branch is the one who did it! The other times I took action, I specially instructed them to do it in the name of a gang in the other parts of the Zither Sound City! When we kidnapped the three hundred million strong tycoons, we did it in the name of the disciples of the two sects, the Water Sword Sect and the Sky Dragon Sword Sect! When doing this, they would wear the attire of a Heavenly Dragon Sword Sect disciple! Some of them were not wearing any clothes, but from those words, one could tell who they were! “Don’t worry, these matters, those victims will not blame our Azure Forest Tri-Sect!”
Long Chu’s words made Qi Lin and Lin Yan, as well as Qin Xiu De, all gape with their mouths wide open as they looked at Long Chu in disbelief!
The Great Heavenly King nodded slightly, his face full of shock. “Yes!” Although Dragonomer Long’s move seemed very simple, it wasn’t. However, it was extremely technical and not something that an ordinary person could do! Not just that, but in just a few days, the Zither Sound City would become a complete mess! I think that the Aquatic Sword Sect, Heavenly Dragon Sword Sect and other cultivation sects will have a hard time escaping!
Qi Lin, Qin Xiu De and the rest all nodded. If one were to think about it carefully, it was exactly as the Great Heavenly King had said! Even with these two things, they could already feel that the entire Zither Sound City was in chaos!
It was all because of these past few days that those rich and hidden families in the Zither Sound City had been frequently kidnapped and threatened. There had even been several cases of these hidden rich and powerful people being killed! Moreover, the finger envoys behind these kidnappers were all different. Each clan’s forces were involved, and there were even Heavenly Dragon Sword Sect and Aquatic Sword Sect who had just arrived in the Zither Sound City.
Long Chu smiled and said to the crowd, “To be honest, I feel that it would be best if we ran away now! Otherwise, if this matter is brought to light sooner or later, the consequences for our Green Forest Sect will not be too tragic! Because our operation these days has earned us over a hundred million taels of silver in total! Just thinking about it makes me feel terrified! ”
“Wow!” Gasps could be heard from the surroundings. Naturally, Qi Lin, Qin Xiu De and the rest did not need to be mentioned. Luan City and the Wanderer were already standing there dumbfounded! Even Mu Xinshu was shocked as he looked at Long Chu. He knew that Long Chu had led the Azure Forest Branch in many things these days, and he was also involved. However, he didn’t expect that their gains would be so great!
Moreover, Mu Xinshu also knew that the total wealth they had obtained from the kidnapping was 300 million silver taels! Whereas the price he paid was only the deaths and injuries of less than 40 or 50 Azure Forest Branch members.
Those invisible rich men seemed to be accustomed to living a comfortable life. They did not pay much attention to their own safety, and the bodyguards that accompanied them were few in number! Furthermore, because they lived in seclusion, their daily lives were not very spectacular. It was very easy for someone with a mind to grasp the rules! Coupled with the fact that there were many new experts in the Azure Forest Branch and they had so many members as spies, it was very easy for Long Chu and the others to command a group of Azure Forest Gang members and complete the kidnapping they wanted to do.
Long Chu’s face was still full of smiles, “Our next step is to isolate the Aquatic Sword Sect and the Heavenly Dragon Sword Sect! We even have to make them offend the other ten great sects in the Zither Sound Mountain Range! “
