843 Iâll Share Half of the Benefits With You (2)
If Yao Buqi had agreed without thinking about anything, it meant that he was not suitable as the ruler of demonic beasts.
If he wanted to become the ruler of demonic beasts, he had to be cautious.
âTheyâre right there. Go talk to them. Iâll see how theyâre doing. I might be able to prepare something for you.â Zhou Shu looked up at the top of the mountain.
After such a long time, Ji Lutian should have finished talking to the leaders of the grotto-heavens.
At this moment, a few streams of light flew into the sky. They were Zhang Jiping, Tang Qianluo, and the others.
Zhou Shu walked to the top of the mountain and found that Zheng Chengan hadnât left yet.
Seeing Zhou Shu walking up the mountain, his eyes lit up. âI knew it! Youâre definitely not dead!â
Zheng Chenganâs figure flashed, and he appeared beside Zhou Shu. He reached out and grabbed Zhou Shuâs shoulder.
âWhat are you talking about? Who are you? Do I know you?â Zhou Shu said speechlessly. This shouldnât be the case. My divine ability Myriad Transformations is clearly flawless. Why can everyone recognize me?
Is it because my temperament is too unique?
âKeep pretending!â Zheng Chengan said. âDo you want me to tell that bastard Tang Qianluo that the person who robbed his storehouse is here and that the one who died is his brother?â
Zhou Shu rolled his eyes. He was already certain that Zheng Chengan had recognized him.
He looked at Ji Lutian.
Ji Lutian spread his hands innocently. âDonât look at me. I didnât say anything. He discovered it himself.â
âHehe, I have sharp eyes. You wonât be able to deceive me. After all, weâre brothers who made a fortune together!â Zheng Chengan said proudly.
He patted Zhou Shuâs shoulder. âDonât worry. Iâve already dealt with the corpse. No one will notice anything unusual.â
Zhou Shu shook his head speechlessly. âLet me ask you. Who is Zheng Yongtai to you?â
âMy eldest nephew, do you know him?â Zheng Chengan asked curiously. âDid that kid offend you?â
Zheng Chengan immediately raised his guard. He wasnât afraid of what Zhou Shu would do to Zheng Yongtai. He was afraid that Zhou Shu would run to the Sima Grotto-Heaven and use the same trick as he had in the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven.
If Zhou Shu emptied the Sima Grotto-Heavenâs storehouse, he would die.
âIf he offended youâŠ
âIâll break his legs!â
Zheng Chengan said this without hesitation.
In the distance, Zheng Yongtai, who had received the order to evacuate the citizens of Great Xia to the Sima Grotto-Heaven, suddenly sneezed a few times. He rubbed his nose and shook his head in confusion. Why do I feel a little cold?
This shouldnât be the case. My cultivation is so high. Something must be wrong outside the grotto-heaven. Iâd better hurry back.
Zheng Yongtai said, âEveryone, speed up. Letâs go back to the Sima Grotto-Heaven as soon as possible. Let me tell you, the Sima Grotto-Heaven is a much better place. When we get there, youâll have a good life.â

On the Two Region Mountain, Zhou Shu shook his head at Zheng Chengan. âHe didnât offend me. I was just asking. Speaking of which, I forged his Seven Star Dragon Abyss Sword.â
âIs that so? Then weâre fated.â Zheng Chengan heaved a sigh of relief and smiled. âZhou Shu, I cooperated with Old Ji to get Tang Qianluo, Zhang Jiping, and the others to agree to move the people of Great Xia to the Sima Grotto-Heaven. Iâm very kind, right?â
âYes.â Zhou Shu gave him a thumbs-up, and his gaze landed on Ji Lutian.
Ji Lutian smiled. âFortunately, we didnât disappoint you. They agreed to our request. The people of Great Xia will migrate to the Sima Grotto-Heaven.â
He continued, âThey also agreed to let the Sima Grotto-Heaven forge the connate bloodline divine weapons. However, they also made a condition. After the connate bloodline divine weapons are forged, each grotto-heaven has to recieve some.
âTheyâre still selfish.â
Ji Lutian shook his head and smiled bitterly.
He knew very well why the various grotto-heavens wanted connate divine weapons.
Logically speaking, as long as people used the connate bloodline divine weapons, it didnât matter who used them. But since the grotto-heavens wanted some, they definitely wanted to take the opportunity to control some demonic beasts.
The human race was indeed too scheming.
There was still a long way to go before humans and demonic beasts could coexist peacefully.
Ji Lutian was still struggling in his heart. He had never really started to implement his idea of making there be no Grotto-Heaven realm experts in the world.
âItâs fine to give them some, but not for free. As long as they pay, sell some to them,â Zhou Shu said casually. âCharge them a high price. Anyway, they have plenty of money!â
In the past, Zhou Shu didnât care about using connate divine weapons to earn money. But these bastard grotto-heavens actually wanted to give him to the demonic beasts of the Demon Realm. If he was polite to them, it wouldnât be his style.
He decided to increase the price of connate bloodline divine weapons by ten times to sell to these grotto-heavens!
âHeh, Zhou Shu, youâve given our Sima Grotto-Heaven a lot of business. How should I thank you?â Zheng Chengan chuckled.
âYouâre mistaken,â Zhou Shu said. âI just want to borrow the Sima Grotto-Heavenâs name. Youâre not thinking of snatching my secret forging formula, are you?â
âWhat do you mean? Are you kicking me to the curb after Iâve outlived my usefulness?â Zheng Chenganâs eyes widened.
âHow am I kicking you to the curb?â Zhou Shu shook his head. âIâve never promised you anything. Isnât it your idea to move the citizens of the Ten Nations into the grotto-heavens? Even if the people of Great Xia donât go to the Sima Grotto-heaven, they can still go to other grotto-heavens.â
âIf they go to other grotto-heavens, they can only work like slaves!â Zheng Chengan said indignantly. âOn account of the big business you sent to our Sima Grotto-Heaven, Iâve given Great Xia a large area in the Sima Grotto-Heaven. If you say that now, Iâll have to go back on my word.â
Zhou Shu smiled. He wasnât in a hurry and said calmly, âWhy are you in such a hurry? I havenât finished speaking.
âCoincidentally, I want to discuss a business deal with your Sima Grotto-Heaven. Your Sima Grotto-Heaven has forgers. I can teach them the forging method of connate bloodline divine weapons, but I have a condition. You have to give me half of the profits of the connate bloodline divine weapons you sell!
âLet me give you an example. If the cost of making a connate bloodline divine weapon is a hundred taels of gold, then the price of selling it to the Xu Ling Grotto-Heaven is two thousand taels of gold. The profit of one thousand, nine hundred taels of gold has to be split between us.
âOf course, they might not be sold for gold. Iâm just giving an example.â
Zheng Chengan opened his mouth. This example was so simple that he naturally understood it. Selling them to the Xuling Grotto-Heaven for 20 times the cost? He liked this idea very much.
But he didnât understand why Zhou Shu would get half of the profits.
âI have no problem with you wanting a share of the profits, but isnât half too much?â Zheng Chengan said.
âItâs not too much.â Zhou Shu shook his head. âIâve even taught you how to make a livelihood. Iâm already very kind by only taking half the profits. Connate bloodline divine weapons are my unique secret technique. No one else in the world knows how to make them. This is a secret technique that your Sima Grotto-Heaven can pass down. All things considered, Iâm the one at a disadvantage. If I donât teach you the secret technique, the benefits of forging connate bloodline divine weapons will all be mine!â
Zheng Chengan frowned. What Zhou Shu said seemed to make sense. If he didnât share his secret technique, the benefits would all be his.
But why did he feel that something was wrong?
Ji Lutian smiled bitterly and shook his head. He didnât explain it to Zheng Chengan. In any case, Zheng Chengan wouldnât suffer any losses in this matter.
âIf you donât want to do it, there are plenty of people in the world who do. Your Sima Grotto-Heaven will only contribute a little, and you will obtain a secret technique and half of the benefits for nothing. Where can you find such a good deal?
âIf you donât want to, I can find someone else.â
