Ambush, Reverse Scheme
In treasure yellow heaven, Tie Qu Zhong buys three thousand copper dragonfish and two hundred silver dragonfish to feed his rank seven edge Gu for now. Dragonfish are only a temporary replacement, so he wants a white steel extract resource point in his aperture, a huge project. White steel extract is a rank seven immortal material drawn from white steel, a rank six earth vein essence. Buying dragonfish repeatedly would incur huge costs and leave him making a loss. He and Shang Hu Zhang, both rank seven, are deployed by Southern Border’s righteous path to hunt Fang Yuan, searching the southeast on Lu Wei Yin’s suggestion. ch. 1600
Shang Hu Zhang agrees that Shang clan can assist with white steel extract, and Tie Qu Zhong grits his teeth and accepts a price that is not too low. He then offers to introduce Tie Qu Zhong to a Shang clan dragonfish stall, which sells ordinary and copper dragonfish but no silver. Tie Qu Zhong thanks him but is unmoved, because the prices remain quite high. ch. 1600
Fang Yuan killed Qin Bai He and You Chan and holds the number one spot in the dragonfish business. Fairy Zi Wei exposed this in treasure yellow heaven, so every Gu Immortal knows and envies him. The loss to his profits is marginal. Competitors’ copper dragonfish cost much more to produce, and silver dragonfish remain exclusive to him, a huge advantage. He opens many stalls to create the scene of many Gu Immortals replicating his silver dragonfish, selling them for huge profits every day. ch. 1600
His immortal essence stones dwindle rapidly because repairing Dang Hun Mountain costs far more than his aperture produces. The mountain is now sixty percent repaired and can produce guts Gu again, though terribly little, so he keeps repairing it. He is certain Heavenly Court will try to suppress him, and his dragonfish advantage will dwindle, especially once Heavenly Court obtains Spectral Soul’s food path inheritance by soul searching. He needs new income, but snow monsters and spirit snakes are not very profitable. He decides to try refining the time path Immortal Gu that time cutting edge needs, as the original move has incredible attack power and prospects. ch. 1600
Southern Border’s Gu Immortals appear and encircle Fang Yuan, and Xia Cha says coldly that he has finally fallen into her hands. Shang Hu Zhang laughs and praises Lu Wei Yin, while Tie Qu Zhong calls for the demon’s death. Heavenly Court’s spy Liu Hao readies fixed space Immortal Gu, which can block Fixed Immortal Travel in a certain area. Lu Wei Yin stays silent under his conical hat. ch. 1600
Fang Yuan laughs that they are too slow but came after all, so his planning was not in vain. Xia Cha takes it for a front. Fang Yuan answers that he did not sense their presence but did sense their deductions, and stayed in Southern Border on purpose, leaving clues. A formation activates with a loud sound. ch. 1600
