Chapter 637: A High-Level Earth Grade Spiritual Artifac

Translator: Storm in a Teacup
When Yan Jiu and Wu Chong were having a talk, Ye Lingyue did not take a rest.
She sent out a master crane.
This crane soon landed in the hands of Yan Che and others.
After Ye Lingyue left the Xia City, Yan Che and L’ai Gu moved the base camp of the Ghost Sect to the Ancient Forest.
Several days after receipt of the letter, the continent was filled with the news that Long Baobao, the weapon-making talent of the Long Family in the Cang State, unfortunately died in an accident.
One night several days later, Long Sixuan who had been eagerly waiting for the reply of the Bloody Castle was right now staying in a luxurious bedroom in the Cang State.
Inside the room there was a legendary luminous pearl whose shape was perfectly round. It was giving off rays of dim light.
Long Sixuan was a good-looking middle-aged man in his thirties.
He exactly looked like an ordinary intellectual. He had tender skin and even showed a sense of gentleness. But his greedy eyes exposed the nature of a crafty man.
Several days had passed since the Bloody Castle started taking action.
Long Sixuan could not eat or sleep well. Even his eyes turned red due to poor sleep. Even so, he had not received the final reply.
After Long Baobao left the Cang State, Long Sixuan ordered others to hunt the boy all the way. Long Baobao was favored by good luck and evaded the attacks over and over again.
In this case, Long Sixuan followed others’ suggestion and made contact with the Bloody Castle.
The Bloody Castle was said to be a secret force second only to the Underground Palace. Xue Long flatly asked for the remuneration of 5 million liang of gold.
If Xue Long had not promised to take the money after getting the head of Long Baobao, Long Sixuan would have been reluctant to give such a big sum.
Fortunately, the Bloody Castle always lived up to its reputation.
Two days ago, Long Sixuan got the news that Long Baobao was killed and that the old creature Steward Huang showed loyalty by dying together with his master.
But Long Sixuan was paranoid. Before he really saw the head of the little creature, he could not rest at ease.
At this time, there suddenly appeared in the room a ghost-like figure. It was a kid.
When seeing the kid, Long Sixuan was obviously relieved, since it was the head of the Bloody Castle Xue Long.
Strangely, Xue Long liked appearing in the form of a child. It was simply unnecessary sometimes.
Just like what he did when meeting Long Sixuan for the first time, Xue Long changed into a boy this time.
“Xue Long, how come you are so slow? Did not you promise to take the little creature’s head back right after killing him?” Long Sixuan questioned extremely impatiently.
“Why are you in a rush? The little creature has found some extremely powerful mercenary soldiers as his helpers. Our Bloody Castle even lost dozens of members. We made arduous efforts to accomplish the task.” Xue Long seemed annoyed and then threw a box to Long Sixuan.
Long Sixuan could not wait to open the box. As expected, there was a child’s head inside.
Obviously, a number of days had passed since the head was cut off. The blood had already changed its color.
The color of the head saw some slight changes. But it was possibly from a very cute child.
After looking at the head roughly, Long Sixuan was sure that it was from his nephew Long Baobao. Instantly, he became overjoyed.
‘Long Baobao, you are finally dead. From now on, the Long Family will be dominated by me!’
“Since you have got what you want, what about the money?”
Xue Long grew impatient.
“Head Xue is reliable as expected. The money is here.” Long Sixuan was full of joy and took out the money. After handing the notes, he suddenly realized something wrong.
He wanted to take back the notes but it was already too late. All was blamed on his excessive joy.
“Head Xue, it isn’t right. You have promised to give me the head of my nephew and the bag with him in exchange for 5 million liang of gold.” Long Sixuan got a little nervous.
Long Sixuan always believed that he should be the undisputed heir of the Long Family.
But he had to admit that Long Baobao was the most talented weapon-maker of the Long Family in the past hundreds of years.
This fact was realized by Long Sixuan when he taught Long Baobao to make spiritual artifacts for the first time.
Even though it was the first time for the 4-year-old boy to do it, he successfully made a spiritual artifact. Even though it was only a yellow grade spiritual artifact, such an achievement was already unmatched on the whole continent.
Of course, there was another person. Ye Lingyue possessed the cauldron breath and successfully made the Star Yan knife when she did weapon-making for the first time. But this was not known by Long Sixuan.
It was said that Long Baobao had made an extremely powerful spiritual artifact for the World’s Top Weapon-Maker this time.
Exactly speaking, it should be a high-level earth grade spiritual artifact.
Such an artifact was a rarely seen precious item even within the Long Family.
Earlier, Long Sixuan had his own wishful thinking. He planned to claim the spiritual artifact after killing Long Baobao. Then he could use the artifact to participate in the World’s Top Weapon-Maker in his own name. Afterwards, he would enter the contest and relied on his hidden trump card to win the first place.
In this case, the old creatures in the family would help him become head of the Long Family and all the members would acknowledge his status.
Exactly for this reason, Long Sixuan was willing to give a big sum as remuneration.
“You still want the bag? Master Long, do you really treat me as a fool? It is a valuable Qiankun Bag and the spiritual artifact a high-level earth grade one. Whatever you say, the artifact should be worth more than 100,000 liang of gold on the continent. Moreover, it was made by the young master of the Long Family. It is said that the young master is quite good at the method of spiritual melting. So the value of the spiritual artifact can only be higher. If you don’t pay 1 million liang of gold, I will never give you the spiritual artifact.” Xue Long snorted.
“Xue Long, don’t go too far!” Long Sixuan’s face turned red with anger.
For a life, 5 million liang of gold was already a sky-high price.
If Long Sixuan had to take out another 1 million liang of gold, he would use up all the money he had embezzled from the Long Family these years.
If he did not give the money, he would have no time to make a high-level spiritual artifact above the earth grade since the World’s Top Weapon-Maker was coming near.
“Master Long, why do you haggle with me, an outlaw, over the small sum of money? As soon as you become head of the Long Family, you can quickly get the money back.” Xue Long reminded Long Sixuan.
Long Sixuan looked gloomy and pondered for a while. Finally, he found Xue Long’s words reasonable and took out 1 million liang of gold from his private vault with clenched teeth. Long Sixuan then gave Xue Long the money extremely reluctantly.
This time, Long Sixuan became much more cautious. He required Xue Long to present the spiritual artifact first.
It was a jade fan made of colored glaze and showed streams of powerful spiritual energy. Sure enough, this was a high-level earth grade spiritual artifact.
“I just like doing deals with forthright people like Master Long. Put away the spiritual artifact. I will not stay here any longer. See you then.” After taking the notes, Xue Long gave a few laughs and then vanished in a weird manner.
