im. It was truly inconceivable.“Not only that, this person also has a set of sword formations yet to be deployed. According to my senior brother, this sword formation is called the Seven Star Sword Fo..."Spare me, young brother!" When Monk Wen and Wu Daoist heard the consecutive screams, their faces also changed drastically. Seeing Lu Xiaoteng chasing with his sword and Zhang Ba fleeing in panic, anyone could tell something had happened. Zhang Ba stumbled, looking no stronger than an ordinary martial artist. If the two of them stood by and did nothing, they would probably be in danger too.

"Venerable Wen, Master Wu Dao, save me!" Zhang Ba cried out in alarm.

"Take one more step, and I'll consider you all as accomplices with this man!" Lu Xia Tian said coldly.

Venerable Wen and Wu Daoist glanced at each other, then saw the menacing Lu Xiaoteng. Cold sweat broke out on their backs, and they simultaneously stopped in their tracks. Zhang Ba and his four disciples, who were all cultivators of great accomplishment, had been defeated in such a short time. Because of the thick black smoke emanating from Luo Yan Guo, even those fighting couldn't fully understand what was happening, let alone those standing farther away. Even if the two of them led reinforcements, the outcome probably wouldn't be much better. Moreover, after witnessing the fate of Zhang Ba and others, how could they risk their own lives!

"Spare me, spare my life! Young master, please spare my life, I'll do anything you ask from now on..." Zhang Ba saw that his old acquaintance was intimidated by Lu Xia Tian's might and didn't dare to come forward. He immediately cried for mercy, but before he could finish his plea, his massive head exploded off, flying several feet high, before rolling several feet away in the mine shaft.

Lu Xia Tian stopped, sheathed his sword and stood tall, glancing at the monks led by Master Wen and Wu Dao Ren. "From now on, this person's share will belong to me. Anyone who disagrees can come find me anytime."

Master Wen and the two miners twitched their mouths. Several who had been defiant were already lying on the ground, dead. In front of so many people, they were killed! The two mining leaders didn't even dare to take a step forward. They feared that after this battle, no one in the entire mine would dare to provoke Lu Xiaoteng again. At the same time, the two also felt remorse. They shouldn't have been complacent when Hu She died before. Now they were probably angering him, and it wouldn't be easy to get along with him afterward.

This was exactly the effect Lu Xia Tian wanted. He wasn't a bloodthirsty person; if these few people had come with an attitude of negotiation from the start, he wouldn't have wanted to waste so many talismans. After all, they were all bought with a lot of spirit stones, using some less or more. However, since Zhang Ba dared to speak up, and Venerable Wen and Wu Dao Ren also had a few points of probing, if he didn't show his power to shock these people again, I'm afraid these people would sooner or later come up with some crooked ideas. He wasn't afraid, but it was too troublesome. If they bothered him during his cultivation later, it wouldn't be worth it.

“You go talk to them about the ore distribution afterward. I want two shares, and I don't care about the rest.” Lu Xia Tian walked through the smoke to Ouyang Zhihan’s front and said.

"Yes, yes, Young Master Lu, I will definitely talk to him well."

After being shocked, Weng Zhihan nodded repeatedly. Just now, the screams were incessant, luckily Lu Xiaitian was still alive standing before his eyes, the fate of others was undoubtedly miserable.

With Lu Xia Tian's decisive actions, Wang Zhi Han and Wu Dao Ren, along with the monk, found their negotiations to be very smooth.

As for Lu Xiaoteng, they had no intention of interfering with his share. Wen and the monk also breathed a sigh of relief. After all, with the fight just now, even if Lu Xiaoteng made any excessive demands, they could only grit their teeth and accept it. After all, they couldn't beat him, and Zhang Ba had already demonstrated the consequences of losing too clearly. The two of them didn't suffer any losses, it was just a scare.

Here is the translation:

The three of them, Uncle and Nephew Ong, were naturally overjoyed. They received all sorts of benefits. As representatives of Lu Xia Tian, even some cultivators at the peak of the Qi Condensation stage and those in the later stages dared not show them any disrespect. The three of them felt a sense of pride and finally straightened their backs in this mine.

After the negotiations, under the lead of Weng Zhihan and Zhang Ba's original subordinates, Lu Xia Tian arrived at Zhang Ba's former residence. It was a cave ten or so meters square, with a pleasant temperature.

"Master Lu, Zhang Ba and Hu She, those two villains, had amassed a considerable sum of spirit stones. They should be hidden somewhere in their residence's secret cave. The two also each have several concubines. Master Lu, what do you intend to do with them" A wiry, middle-aged cultivator named Bi Guanghai, who had reached the peak of the Qi Refining stage, obsequiously informed Lu Xiaodao.

"A concubine" Lu Xia Tian was slightly puzzled. Most of these miners were exiles, so they should not be concerned with such matters.

"Lu Gongzi, you may not know this, but occasionally a small number of female cultivators are also exiled to the mine. Furthermore, the Blackwater Village mine has been operating for thousands of years. Although the number of female cultivators is small, there are still some who are quite beautiful. They are usually taken by the most powerful mining foreman. According to the rules within the mine, once Hu She and Zhang Ba die, their property naturally belongs to Lu Gongzi."

A man in his fifties, Bi Guohai, spoke and clapped his hands twice. Two men then led six or seven women into the room. The older ones were around thirty years old, with graceful figures. The younger ones were only fifteen or sixteen years old, but beautiful to look at. They were all female cultivators at the early and middle stages of Qi refinement. Because they spent their days in the mine tunnels, their skin was white and fair, indeed quite alluring.

But Lu Xiaoxian wasn't interested. He said, "I don't need these. Sooner or later, I'm going to leave the mine anyway. Let them disperse on their own."

“My nephew, Shuqiu, has reached middle age and is still unmarried. He asks that you bestow a wife upon him.” Wen Zhihan hurriedly bowed and requested.

“If they are willing, you can arrange things yourselves.” Lu Xia Tian waved his hand.

"Thank you, young master." Although Lu Xia Tian did not directly agree, he did not deny it either. Weng Zhihan was overjoyed and quickly thanked him.

“All of you, leave now. From now on, no one is allowed to approach the cave within twenty paces without my order. If anything happens, just shout outside. Also, Daoist Weng, please have Su Qiu and Master Bi go on a trip to find the spirit stones that Hu She has hidden and bring them to me.” Lu Xiaotian suddenly said.

In Bihai Kingdom, Wang Zhihan and others were taken aback. Several cultivators in the cave were rummaging through the spirit stones Zhang Ba had left behind. Unexpectedly, Lu Xiaoteng directly issued an order to evict them. Although they didn't know why, everyone was very afraid of Lu Xiaoteng and obeyed his words, retreating outside.

“As a friend, you have earned the trust of Master Lu. In the future, I hope you will continue to help him.” After they came out, Bi Haiguo bowed to Weng Zhihan and said.

“I dare not. Daoist Bi has profound magical powers, and in the future, I will rely on Daoist Bi greatly. I hope that Daoist Bi will not refuse when the time comes.” Weng Zhihan replied with a bow.

"If Senior Wong has something to say, I will certainly go through fire and water for him." Bi Haiguo patted his chest and said.

“Uncle, this Bi Hai Guo has profound magical powers. If he is willing to help us, we will have a lot less trouble in the future.” After watching several people leave, Weng Sujie said.

"You don't understand," Wong Zhihan snorted. "This person is fawning over Gongzi Lu, you need to be wary of him! Otherwise, this person's cultivation level might be higher than ours, and because he used to work with Zhang Ba, he knows the mine better than we do. If he gains Gongzi Lu's trust, he'll become our biggest threat!"

Wang Sujie's complexion paled and he said, "What should we do then"

“Don't worry too much, I have my own plan.” Wang Zhihan’s face was hesitant, clearly thinking about something.or a moment. He was unwilling to be stagnant at his current cultivation level.>“Just say what you want to exchange from me, don’t beat around the bush. Within a radius of hundreds of miles, I want oth...
