Chapter 269: The General Is Lying
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
When Su Wen said that he would give Ao Jing 10% of the benefits, everyone’s expressions changed.
No one was a fool. They knew very well how huge the profits were.
When they heard that 10% would be handed over to Ao Jing, some people’s eyes immediately turned red.
However, even though they were envious, no one objected. The reason was very simple. Ao Jing was the only 9th Grade Heaven Rank expert in the human world, and he was formidable. So, speaking at this moment would offend him!
Furthermore, even if they dared to speak out, it would be difficult for them to snatch all the 10% of benefits from Ao Jing.
In the end, it was better for the management fees to fall into Ao Jing’s hands than to fall into the hands of other humans!
After all, they were only vicious beasts!
Therefore, these people were only unhappy in their hearts, but did not speak.
On the other hand, Ao Jing was overjoyed!
He never expected Su Wen to make such a decision! To give him such a huge sum of benefits!
Su Wen looked at Ao Jing and said with a smile, “However, Senior Ao, you can’t take the fees for nothing! When the time comes, you and your subordinates will still have to protect the transactions that happen between the Human and the Demon Realms!”
These words were indeed true. When the time came, when it involved a large number of creatures making transactions, there might be people who would be jealous and cause trouble.
Someone had to protect them.
As for Ao Jing, he was clearly a good candidate for this role.
Ao Jing was also very willing!
To put it bluntly, he also wanted to break through. He also wanted to reach the Saint Rank.
The benefits of having Merit in one’s cultivation was self-evident.
Ao Jing patted his chest and said, “Don’t worry, leave this to me!”
His gaze towards Su Wen was filled with gratitude.
Because he knew very well that Su Wen was surrendering the benefits to him!
To put it bluntly, even if he was not present, Su Wen could still find a way to take control of the remaining 10%.
Or he could give it to someone else.
With the support of a Saint, Su Wen could completely do such a thing. Furthermore, Su Wen’s strength was not weak either!
But Su Wen naturally had his own considerations.
No matter what, the situation in the human world was too terrible, he had to think of a way to increase his strength as soon as possible. If he could help Ao Jing break through to the Saint Rank, at the very least, they would be able to have a true advantage on the battlefield.
At the same time, he was the one in charge of this matter. If he did this, Ao Jing would definitely remember his favor. It wouldn’t be to say that he would feel indebted, but at the very least, their relationship would be much closer than before.
It was very simple. No matter if it was in the company or as a freelancer, who wouldn’t be happy if their salary was increased?
The current alliance army of the human world was the same. They were in a community of shared benefits, but they also had their own thoughts and schemes.
Su Wen swept his gaze across everyone and said with a smile, “It’s settled then. If everyone doesn’t have any objections, we’ll start with this. We’ll first breed the pigs and plant the grass seeds in the various cities and hand them over to the public to raise them. Once the number of seeds increases, we’ll then bring them back to be traded. Does anyone have any objections?”
Everyone remained silent.
What else was there to disagree about?
At the very least, on the surface, it was already extremely fair.
A grand international pig farming exercise had begun.
Soon, the other side of the demonic realm also brought away the Giant Strength Rat and Longevity Grass.
In the beginning, internal affairs were the most important to be settled, followed by subordinate tribes.
The two sides fell into a state of relative calm, but while there were no major conflicts, there were constantly minor conflicts that sprang up here and there, since there were too many creatures from the Demon Realm who wanted to go to the human world to take a look.
Both sides continued to have participants who fought and killed!
Furthermore, not everyone was willing to breed Strength Rats.
In the defense line of the endless wilderness…
A demon with wings on his back and a green face sporting sharp teeth grinned.
He successfully passed through the guards of the human world.
He simply picked a random direction and soared into the sky. With a flap of his wings, he shot towards the human realm!
He was not the first, nor the last.
Soon, news that the human world was under attack by the demons spread.
Of course, most of these demons were unable to achieve much, and only those brainless people would be directly killed.
After all, there were still some experts in the human world now, so it was not a problem to deal with these scattered demons.
However, it was inevitable that they would manage to kill some people!
In the Nine Nether Island, some of the Heaven Rank experts could not stay still any longer.
This was especially true of the Heaven Rank experts from the various families. Both realms were currently in a stable situation, and had nothing much to do. Other than searching for a few scattered devils every day to kill, they could only cultivate.
The problem was that Su Wen asked the commoners to farm mountain rock pigs.
But no matter what happened, those commoners would not give them the things they raised.
Hence, they were anxious to go back and let their families start breeding the pigs as well.
But at the same time, the moment they wanted to return, then the Royal Family experts would definitely not be able to sit still.
If these Heaven Rank experts returned and no one from the royal family followed them, wouldn’t the Royal family suffer?
Hence, these people started to look for Gongsun Shi every other day, wanting to return.
How could Gongsun Shi let them leave?
The pressure on the defense line was already big enough, and no one knew when the Demon Race would turn hostile, so he still forced them to stay.
After a few months, the scale of the breeding was completely expanded.
Soon, the first transaction began.
On the human world’s side, the spiritual masters had built a large number of airships!
This was the aircraft that they had developed under Ni Hongxiao’s lead.
However, the speed of this thing wasn’t very fast. Alright, that was only relative to Heaven Rank experts…
For the ordinary people, it was a much more convenient form of transportation.
Su Wen and Mo Youhan stood in the air and watched as a large number of mountainous pigs were transported from the human world’s airship!
Their eyes flashed with the light of getting their harvest.
As for the demons, their transport methods were more primitive. After all, living things could not enter the spirit artifacts.
They could only place the Giant Strength Rats in the cages and slowly transport them using the carriages pulled by some demonic creatures.
Compared to the efficiency of the human world, it was still quite lacking.
Mo Youhan looked at the transaction between the two of them and smiled. “This is only the beginning. According to your instructions, we have already left enough Giant Strength Rats to nurture. This thing is produced extremely quickly, and it won’t be long before we can produce a second batch.”
Su Wen smiled and remained silent.
The mountainous pig’s reproductive ability was naturally weaker than the Giant Strength Rat.
The difference could not be seen in the short term, but as time passed, the number of Giant Strength Rats would definitely surpass the Mountainous Rock Pigs.
When the time came…
However, they were in the early stages now, and he had to account for the benefits of the whole population.
In this first transaction, both sides were relatively satisfied.
They left with their spoils of war.
When they returned, they would divide the spoils according to the ratios they had fixed.
To the commoners of these countries, they did not need much benefits. They only needed enough food and water.
A strange scene thus happened, where there were Giant Strength Rats everywhere in the human world!
Su Wen was no exception. After separating the benefits that belonged to him, a sea of flames filled the sky and incinerated hundreds of thousands of Giant Strength Rats!
A large amount of Heaven Earth Merit surged into his body!
Su Wen was secretly delighted!
This felt too good!
His plan was indeed a success.
This was only the beginning.
The scale of the first transaction was not too big since the breeding was still ongoing.
However, Su Wen had already obtained so much from the commission.
The accumulation of hundreds of thousands of Strength Rats was equivalent to killing half of a Demon Race Heaven Rank expert.
Su Wen could predict how much Heaven Earth Merit he would gain when the scale of the transactions expanded and the entire human world was pulled into the national cultivation plan.
While he obtained his benefits, the rest of the wartime personnel also obtained their own benefits.
Although they did not get a lot, everyone knew that this was only the beginning.
Most importantly, there was no risk!
There was no risk at all in doing such a transaction.
How good was that?
On the demons’ side, Chu Xun also killed many mountain pigs!
He didn’t take 20% of the profits for himself. Instead, he only took 10% and gave the rest to his subordinates.
A satisfied smile appeared on his face!
“Good! Not bad! It’s a good start. Pass down the order! We must nurture the Giant Strength Rats on a large scale.”
Chu Xun was very happy. He could even see that his cultivation had greatly increased and that he would soon have the potential to unite the Demon Race.
Perhaps this would take some time, maybe a decade, or maybe even two.
However, for someone who had lived for a long time, this was nothing.
The lifespan of a Saint Rank cultivator had far exceeded the imagination of ordinary people.
Moreover, during this period of time, the Giant Strength Rat’s ability to reproduce had been fully displayed.
It was shockingly fast!
Perhaps there were originally only a few dozen, but after a month, there would be hundreds, and after another month, there would be thousands!
The Longevity Grass was extremely suitable as a breeding material.
That thing could grow to the height of a person in a short period of time.
After it was cut off, it would regrow in less than 15 minutes.
There was no need to worry about the cost of raising a large number of rats.
Even the many slaves of the Demon Race did not have to worry about food after planting the grasses.
Even if they were raising it for the elders and the masters, they would not be able to discover it even if they secretly ate a few.
At the same time, this news had already spread within the Demon Realm!
Raising the Giant Strength Rat would allow one to trade with the people in the human world for Mountainous Rock Pigs.
One had to know that many demons raised a great amount of Giant Strength Rats and obtained a large number of Mountainous Rock Pigs to kill in return. Not only did they have meat to eat, they could also obtain a lot of blessings from the heaven and earth.
For ordinary demons, this was the best thing that could happen.
Originally, it was very difficult for ordinary demons to obtain the blessing of the heaven and earth.
Who could guarantee their own survival if they fought a large-scale battle with humans?
Even Heaven Rank experts would die, let alone ordinary cultivators.
But now, one could obtain such an opportunity by eating meat and raising rats at home. Who would be unhappy?
Although they had to give a cut of their profits to the Demonic Tribe, it was enough to make these ordinary demons happy.
Under this kind of atmosphere, the trade between the two worlds began to go on track!
The scale also grew with each trade.
Be it in the human world or the Demon Realm, raising and trading creatures became what many people hoped for.
As time passed, many people in the various countries in the human world began to specifically breed Mountainous Rock Pigs.
Many influential families even did not have enough people to take care of them.
Thus, they handed the pigs over to the commoners to breed. As commoners, they were too easily satisfied. Just giving them a few pigs in return for their services would send them over the moon.
The royal family was even more so. Xiang Feiyan directly distributed the piglets and grass seeds to the commoners.
“Take care of it, you can just turn over a portion of it to the Royal Court.”
Hence, in this feudal society, the freedom to rear and make meat was activated.
This fully illustrated the principle that technology was the number one at raising productivity.
Ni Hongxiao used her epoch-making invention to improve everyone’s lives.
At the border of Great Chu, Yan Ze was leading a group of people to patrol!
Their job was to clean up the Demons that crossed the border!
During this period of time, he had encountered such an incident more than once.
Some of the demons were very cunning! They would not directly attack the strong.
Instead, they hid in the forest and would attack the commoners the moment they had the chance!
It was extremely difficult to deal with them.
The only positive part was that there were no Heaven Rank experts present on the enemy side.
After patrolling for a while, he did not find anything, thus Yan Ze dismounted.
“General, what are we having for lunch today? Roasted pork legs? Pig Whip? Pig intestines? Or a pig head?” The guard came up and asked.
Yan Ze sighed when he heard this, “I’ll be a vegetarian today…”
He had been eating too much meat recently.
“Hahaha!” The guard laughed loudly. “If the General wants to be a vegetarian, so will all the brothers. They’ve been eating too much greasy food recently.”
Indeed, happiness came too suddenly.
Meat had become the most worthless food in Chu right now.
The guard sighed, “This Saintess Ni is too powerful, to actually be able to do such a thing. Now, many places have already established the Saintess Temple to pray for her! Such a person must not get into trouble at the front line.”
Yan Ze thought of the woman who held herself with such an aloof posture.
He could not help but shake his head.
With Su Wen around, how could he let anything happen to her?
Now, Ni Hongxiao’s reputation had truly risen.
As the person who nurtured the Mountainous Rock Pigs and the Billion Cluster Grass, she had become a Saintess in the hearts of countless people.
This was unlike Gongsun Shi, who was high up in the sky yet unknown to the public eye…
In the hearts of the people, Ni Hongxiao, who could let them eat their fill and eat their meat, was a true saint.
Yan Ze did not put on any airs at all with his men. While he said that he would be a vegetarian today, he didn’t intend to strictly stick with that diet as well.
The soldiers prepared some biscuits and rations before using wild vegetables, vegetables, and pork to stew them all together.
No one really paid much attention to cooking when they were outfield.
To be honest, many ordinary people before this would not even be able to eat such food during the new year.
A group of people surrounded Yan Ze, and someone couldn’t help but ask, “General, you must have seen Saintess Ni before, right? Is she especially beautiful?”
Everyone knew that Ni Hongxiao came from Zhou Country with Yan Ze.
That was why the soldier asked this question.
Yan Ze thought for a moment and nodded. “She’s indeed beautiful!”
Everyone immediately chorused with praises for her.
“I knew that this Saintess Ni would definitely be beautiful. She’s so kind and cares for everyone under the heavens, how can she not be beautiful?”
“That’s right. Appearance comes from the heart. For her to do such a thing to benefit the people, she must be very beautiful.”
“General, is Saintess Ni usually very approachable in life? Is she especially kind?”
The soldiers all looked at Yan Ze.
He hoped to hear something more about Ni Hongxiao from him.
Yan Ze’s expression however was a little twisted at this moment!
After all, he had gone inside Ni Hongxiao’s laboratory and saw what she did…
It was during the time when they were all in the Flame God Sect…
The room was filled with eerie corpses…
That woman… was indeed beautiful!
But about her being kind… approachable…
Even if you beat Yan Ze to death, Yan Ze would not be able to associate these two words with Ni Hongxiao.
Yan Ze was not a tactful person. He directly told the truth, “She’s not like what you think. She’s usually very cold and doesn’t allow anyone to approach her laboratory. She’s always doing experiments and her methods are quite ruthless…”
As Yan Ze spoke, he realized that the others were looking at him strangely.
No one bothered him anymore as they lowered their heads to eat.
Everyone dispersed after dinner.
Yan Ze could faintly hear other people’s discussion.
“I didn’t expect General Yan to be such a person.”
“That’s right, how could Saintess Ni be like what he said?”
“Saintess Ni must be kind… Maybe there’s some conflict between the two of them!”
“Sigh… now that you mention it, I remember. I have a cousin who said that Saintess Ni also lives in the Nanli King’s Residence…”
“Yo, yo, yo… No wonder. Little Commander Yan is the wife of the Nanli King. General Yan naturally doesn’t like Saintess Ni!”
Yan Ze was furious.
“Bullsh*t! Do I need to be unhappy with her?”
He directly cursed out loud!
He was angry! Why? Was it wrong for him to tell the truth?
When the soldiers saw that he had heard them, they hurriedly laughed and ran away.
They all knew that although Yan Ze had a bad temper, he usually did not put on airs and could joke around.
However, they still believed in what they thought, instead of what he said.
To them, Saintess Ni was beautiful, approachable, and extremely kind.
On the other side, in the Flame God Sect…
Dongfang Ju was about to go crazy!
Su Su had gone missing!
Disappeared!
Little Su Su had disappeared from the sect at some point in time.
In terms of cultivation, Little Su Su was not weak!
In the past few years, she had grown extremely fast in the Flame God Sect.
At this moment, she had already reached 6th Grade Earth Rank.
The speed at which her cultivation increased was completely incomprehensible to Dongfang Ju.
According to the previous agreement, Su Su could take over as the Sect Master.
However, the problem was that Su Su was too young!
Therefore, it was impossible for him to hand over the position of Sect Master to her now.
The problem was that everyone knew that Su Su was an absolute privileged person in the Flame God Sect.
Usually, when Su Su was at the sect, she would do whatever she wanted.
Dongfang Ju would not even tell her to cultivate more.
After all, Su Su’s speed of improvement had completely exceeded his understanding.
Hence, he did not really care about Su Su.
However, this morning, Dongfang Ju realized that Su Su had not come to cultivate with him. At first, he did not think much of it.
After all, Su Su might just have gone off to play somewhere.
The problem was that he did not see Su Su until the evening. However, when he went to ask the maidservant who served Su Su, he heard that Su Su did not return the night before.
This time, Dongfang Ju exploded. “What are you thinking? If the Lady didn’t come back, why didn’t you report to me?”
The maid said in an aggrieved tone, “Miss Su Su doesn’t have to go anywhere usually. Sometimes at your place, sometimes at the Wu residence. Especially recently, she often goes to Madam Ni’s laboratory to stay… We don’t dare to go there…”
Upon hearing this, Dongfang Ju was stunned. He remembered that Su Su had mentioned looking for Su Wen and Ni Hongxiao several times recently.
Of course, he rejected it immediately.
But now that he thought about it… Su Su might have gone down the mountain herself.
Well, he was not wrong.
At this moment, a five or six-year-old girl was carrying a Tiber doll and wearing a princess dress. She flew in the sky and headed straight for the north!
It was Little Su Su…
This time, Ni Hongxiao and Su Wen went down the mountain and did not return for four years straight.
Little Su Su actually missed them a lot.
After all, she was just a child.
Over the past few days, her longing for them had only intensified.
That was why she went to Ni Hongxiao’s laboratory many times.
“Daddy, Mommy, where are you… don’t you want Su Su anymore?”
The wings on Little Su’s back flapped, and she flew even faster.
She did not know where Su Wen and Ni Hongxiao were.
However, she could sense their general direction.
His terrifying spiritual perception allowed him to sense the links between her and Su Wen’s bloodline even from tens of thousands of miles away.
