Ye Luo’s things, giving them to you, is a sign of respect and Ye Luo’s own willingness. Want to take them by force?

Not that easy!

Ye Luo sat down, ready to continue reviewing the memoranda, but suddenly stood up!

"This is bad!"

Ye Luo was startled. Although he knew that once those Dao Spirit Stones were extracted, they would be immediately transferred and never exceed a hundred before being sent to him.

But the Water Realm Master wouldn’t know that, so Ye Luo had no doubt that the guy would definitely target the mineral veins!

"Someone, quickly bring Senior Ao Long and Yun Liancheng over!"

Ye Luo shouted loudly.

Yun Liancheng was now being roped into hard labor by Ye Luo, handling the affairs of Tangyue City. After all, Yun Liancheng always showed up just when Ye Luo needed him; why not make use of him!

As for Ao Long?

Speaking of which, Ao Long is indeed the chief in charge of the Great Wilderness development.

However, like Ye Luo, Ao Long also preferred being a hands-off shopkeeper.

Both of them quickly came over, knowing well that if Ye Luo wasn’t in a bind, he wouldn’t summon them so easily!

Once they arrived, Ye Luo wasted no time and directly said to Yun Liancheng, "Brother Yun, I’ll leave this to you here. If there’s anything you need, contact Nalan Rou and Feng Ling directly! Senior Ao Long, come with me back to the Great Wilderness; someone is targeting the Dao Spirit mineral veins!"

Yun Liancheng was unaware of what the Dao Spirit mineral veins entailed, but he never refused Ye Luo’s instructions.

Instead, Ao Long was slightly stunned, "Targeting the Great Wilderness, who has such audacity?"

Indeed, wasn’t it audacious? Nowadays, the Great Wilderness had already become the place Ye Luo cared most about, heavily garrisoned and completely sealed off!

Ye Luo didn’t have time to explain as he dragged Ao Long outside while saying, "It’s people from the Eighth Region!"

The Eighth Region!

No wonder, Ao Long didn’t refuse and immediately joined Ye Luo on the Suspending Venerate, leaving quickly. Using the Transmission Array, they soon arrived at the Great Wilderness.

Fortunately, although the Water Realm Master might also use the Transmission Array, he couldn’t directly teleport over like Ye Luo, so when Ye Luo arrived, the Water Realm Master hadn’t yet reached there.

The two quickly arrived at the Dao Spirit mineral veins!

In reality, even though the yield of this Dao Spirit mineral vein might not seem high!

But in fact, it’s not just the Ninth Region but in both Ninth and Eighth Regions, this one Dao Spirit mineral vein could indeed be called an absolute rich mine!

For reference, the estimated extraction could exceed a million pieces!

A million pieces could forge at least tens of thousands of sets of Dao Spirit equipment!

How could such a mineral vein not be termed a rich mine?

Ye Luo had invested a lot of manpower here, but mining Dao Spirit stones was not so straightforward.

This kind of extraction wasn’t just about digging; it required using Spiritual Power combined with a special potion to slowly dissolve the impurities around the Dao Spirit minerals to retrieve them!

So the speed wasn’t actually fast!

Ye Luo was not worried about anyone competing with him, which is why he opened up fifty mine paths, with over one hundred thousand people mining simultaneously, focusing on spots where Dao Spirit was more concentrated, achieving this kind of speed!

Yet despite this, from the start of the Great Wilderness development until now, several months had passed, and Ye Luo had obtained less than ten thousand Dao Spirit Stones!

As soon as Ye Luo and Ao Long arrived, they immediately ordered the craftsmen to temporarily leave!

Ye Luo knew well that a battle might break out soon, and keeping these craftsmen here might only drag them into undesired trouble!

The large-scale withdrawal began quickly, and though the people didn’t know what Ye Luo intended to do, no one dared disobey his orders!

However, before the withdrawal could even complete, seven people flew in from the sky!

Backup!

Ye Luo was slightly puzzled, seemingly this Water Realm Master hadn’t just started focusing on Ye Luo!

But naturally, since Ye Luo had become quite the influential figure now, the Water Realm Master and his group couldn’t possibly ignore him within the Great Tang Empire!

"Oh, you move pretty fast, got some quick thinking. But kid, here’s a piece of advice: you’d better be sensible and hand over the Dao Spirit Stones. We only want ten thousand pieces, or else, don’t blame us for being impolite!

Hmph, your Magical Treasure might be powerful, but you can only attack once in a short time. Even if you dispatch one of us, the remaining ones can still easily take you down!"

The one speaking was precisely that Water Realm Master, evidently somewhat surprised Ye Luo had arrived so quickly, yet still threatening Ye Luo!

Dare to threaten me?

Ye Luo sneered lightly, saying calmly, "Is that so? Rest assured, if I were really to blast someone, it would definitely be you!"

Just one sentence from Ye Luo caused the Water Realm Master’s face to change drastically, and the other six even subtly distanced themselves from her!

Ye Luo disdainfully gazed at that Water Realm Master, daring them to see who would be threatening whom!

Even the Water Realm Master was somewhat apprehensive; after all, he knew the power of Ye Luo’s Magical Treasure well, and he had no confidence in withstanding Ye Luo’s attack.

But to just give up now was evidently something he couldn’t stomach!

Yet she dared not speak anymore, knowing Ye Luo dared say it, he would certainly do it!

They weren’t stupid; Ye Luo, who jointly ruled over Da Yue and the Great Tang, had caused more than his fair share of bloodshed. Besides, a ten-thousand-man army had once been obliterated in this guy’s hands! 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

The Water Realm Master couldn’t guarantee that Ye Luo, in a fit of rage, wouldn’t wipe him out with one shot!

Besides, even if Ye Luo killed him and then offered the Dao Spirit Stones to others, probably nobody would care about her!

Moreover, each of the seven was envious of Ye Luo’s handgun, so perhaps the remaining six were actually eager for Ye Luo to fire at and kill the Water Realm Master. That way, they could not only obtain the Dao Spirit Stones but also seize the powerful Magical Treasure from Ye Luo!

Of course, Ye Luo wouldn’t be so foolish. Speaking aloud was one thing, but he knew clearly that one reason the seven hadn’t acted was his handgun.

They had miscalculated one thing: Ye Luo’s gun, given a sufficient cooldown, could fire twice consecutively.

But facing seven opponents, whether it’s one or two shots, doesn’t make much difference!

These people weren’t mere soldiers but formidable experts with several tricks up their sleeves.

Ye Luo was well aware that if the battle erupted, he didn’t have much confidence in defeating them!

Using the Clairvoyant Eye, Ye Luo could see clearly that among these seven, the lowest was at the Sixth Rank Spirit Martial Realm!

Plus, with their unique Cultivation Techniques, Ye Luo feared that if a battle broke out, it would be his loss!

After all, beside him, he only had Ao Long!

"If you want the Dao Spirit Stones, it’s not impossible, but it depends on what you offer in return!"
