Chapter 107: Stone Annihilation Alliance
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Stone Annihilation Alliance?
An independent alliance?
Su Jingxing was in thought.
He knew about the independent alliances. Almost every country had them.
Stone Annihilation Alliance. This name sounds very domineering too.
World Annihilation…
Hey, wait a minute!
Suddenly, an idea flashed through Su Jingxing’s mind. He stared at the words “Stone Annihilation Alliance” and repeated them.
“Stone Annihilation? Stone Annihilation? Stone Annihilation! Could it be…”
With these guesses, Su Jingxing who originally wanted to ignore and close the chat, didn’t follow through with the act.
Instead, he quickly typed a reply.
“Stone Annihilation? Destroy the Shi Family”
Beep beep~
The other party replied very quickly.
“That’s right! The members of our alliance have relatives who have been harmed by the Shi Family. Some of them are even the only survivors!”
“We know that relying on ourselves, we will never be able to do anything to the Shi Family. For this, we joined forces and formed an alliance. The purpose of the Stone Annihilation Alliance is to destroy the Shi Family!”
“Legend, you probably have a grudge against the Shi Family too? O(∩_∩)O!”
Do I have a grudge against the Shi Family?
It could be considered so.
However, compared to this, Su Jingxing was more curious about the existence of this Stone Annihilation Alliance.
There were actually people secretly working together to destroy the Shi Family.
Regardless of whether this goal could be achieved, their courage was commendable.
It was indeed difficult to destroy the Shi Family with just one or two people.
Even if a third-grade big shot was here, he could not guarantee that he would not miss a single one.
This was because the Shi Family was a martial arts family with a history of hundreds of years. They had many descendants in the direct and collateral lines of descendants. Qinghe City was just their headquarters. In the various functional towns, other cities, and even prefecture cities, there were active Shi Family members.
Annihilating the Shi Family could only be said to be eliminating the main members. At most, wiping out their local members.
Those who were scattered outside had to be given up.
This Stone Annihilation Alliance wishes to destroy the Shi Family. Were they very powerful?
Even killing the local Shi Family members in Qinghe City alone would still be quite difficult.
At this thought, Su Jingxing typed his reply.
“Do you have many people?”
Beep beep~
“We do have quite a lot of people, but we don’t have many martial artists. By the way, Legend, were you the one who rescued those girls who were captured by the Shi Family?”
Beep beep~
“I mean, did you do so personally? -_-||”
Beep beep~
“Sorry, sorry. I’m not doubting you. I’m just curious whether you and the fourth-grade expert are the same person?”
Beep beep~
“Huhu, did I offend you? I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to. I’ve always been bad with my words. I didn’t know why I said that.”
Beep beep~
“Huhu, Legend, if you want to blame someone, blame me. Don’t vent your anger on our alliance. We are all pitiful people. We were forced into a corner by the Shi Family, so we chose to form an alliance and depend on one another…”
No more?
Su Jingxing was enjoying the show. Why did this person suddenly stop?
Did the Internet get cut off or was this person called away?
Or perhaps this person realized that he or she had revealed too much information and hurriedly escaped?
Judging from the language, this person who suddenly contacted him was probably an innocent young girl.
Of course, it could also be a male pretending to be a female.
No matter who it was, the person was from the Stone Annihilation Alliance for sure.
They had many people, but not many martial artists.
From this description, one could determine that the Stone Annihilation Alliance might be quite influential, but their strength should be ordinary.
No matter how many ordinary people there were, since there were not many martial artists, while they could deal with ordinary people, destroying the Shi Family would be expecting too much.
Beep beep~
The notification sounded again.
“Greetings, Senior. I’m sorry that our little sister’s words were inappropriate and offended you. If possible, please send an account number to us and we will transfer you 100 million Great Yu dollars. We know that this amount of money is nothing to you, but it is a token of our sincerity. We hope that you can forgive us.”
Oh, another person now?
Su Jingxing’s interest was piqued. He read through the content, thought about it, and typed a reply.
…
On the other side. In a spacious office with windows that were tightly covered.
“Hu hu hu. What do I do? What do I do? Why do I have such a stupid mouth? Why do I never learn? I dare to say anything. It’s over now, it’s over now.”
A 16 year old girl with a bowl cut and a round face sat on a chair and wailed with a mournful expression.
“Enough.”
Beside her was an oval-faced woman with fair skin. Her long hair was tied into a ponytail and she had a heroic bearing. She consoled helplessly, “It has already happened. Frustration and regret are useless. What we need to do now is think of a way to make up for it.”
The round-faced girl rubbed her eyes and said with a sobbing tone, “Sister Qian, do you think the Legend will forgive me?”
“If he really is the fourth-grade expert who broke into the Shi Family’s secret base at Turtleback Mountain alone, killed all the guards, and rescued Han Min and the others, he would not be so petty as to get angry with you because of a few unintentional words.”
In a corner of the office, a middle-aged man with a calm demeanor and a shocking scar on his right face said in a deep voice.
“Yes, given that big shot’s character, how could he be so petty?”
A young man with messy hair rubbed his hands and said excitedly, “That expert is simply too suave. Not only is he suave, he’s also cool! He actually destroyed a secret base of the Shi Family. We never dared to imagine such a thing, yet he accomplished it alone. He’s simply too cool!”
“That’s right. Our alliance has been established for almost five years, but we’ve always been fighting small battles, only daring to cause trouble for the Shi Family in business.” Not far away from the young man, was a woman with completely white hair but a face that was still youthful. She looked exhausted and spoke softly.
“It’s not that we’re useless. Ya Ge, don’t always deny yourself. Who here doesn’t know how powerful the Shi Family is? In the entire Qinghe City, other than the Li family who dares to speak out and is stronger than them, which other person or faction dares to say that they can defeat the Shi Family?”
A man with a full beard said seriously, “We’ve already agreed from the start that we definitely must not make unnecessary sacrifices. Targeting the businesses was the countermeasure we’ve discussed from the start. As long as we have enough money, so what if we lack martial artists? We can totally hire a team of assassins to find trouble with the Shi Family!”
“That’s right. We don’t ask to destroy the Shi Family in one go. As long as we still have people alive and we continue to earn money and hire killers, the Shi Family will never be at peace!”
“That’s true, but the key is that the amount of money needed to hire an assassin group is massive. Which professional assassin would dare to accept the task without 10 billion dollars?”
“I’m just afraid that before we earn enough money, we will be discovered by the Shi Family and wiped out. The last time, Little Bing went to seek revenge on Shi Yankang in her recklessness. She almost exposed our whereabouts and allowed the Shi Family to find us.”
“I’m sorry.” The woman called Little Bing lowered her head and spoke softly.
“Little Bing, I’m not looking for trouble for no reason. I’m just trying to use this as an example to explain the situation to everyone. The route was earning ten billion dollars, and then looking for an assassin team to exterminate the Shi Family has now been proven wrong!” the man who spoke said with a serious expression.
The entire office fell silent.
That’s right, they had long discovered this problem.
However, they had no choice. Without relying on earning money to hire assassins and going to the Shi Family by themselves was completely courting death. Every person to go would die. It would be a meaningless sacrifice.
This had happened several times at the beginning of the Stone Annihilation Alliance’s establishment.
Thus, they agreed not to directly cause trouble for the Shi Family, only going by the side or the back. The best method was to hire a group of assassins.
The assassins only cared about money.
As long as they had enough money, they would even dare to assassinate the Li Family, the number one martial arts family in Qinghe City, let alone the Shi Family.
The problem was that the Shi Family was not an ordinary faction. They were a well-known martial arts family with a hundred years of history. If they wished to hire assassins to deal with the Shi Family, the price would be extremely high.
At least 10 billion Great Yu dollars!
Yu Nation was one of the safest countries on Earth Star.
As such, the purchasing power of their currency, Great Yu dollars, was very powerful.
Even a business under the Li Family, would take two to three years to make 10 billion dollars of profit.
It would take at least a few decades for the Stone Annihilation Alliance to scrape together the amount.
Decades. They could wait, but the Shi Family already knew of the existence of the Stone Annihilation Alliance and had always wanted to find them and eliminate them. Were they sure they could hold out until then?
No one in the office could guarantee this.
For this, no one had anything to say. They only felt deeply helpless.
The sheer size of the Shi Family made people feel helpless and hopeless!
Ding!
The computer’s notification beep sounded.
The round-faced girl immediately leaned over. The oval-faced woman also looked nervous.
“No need.”
“This is a small matter. It’s not offensive.”
“Haha, the Legend is the Legend. I knew it, why would the Legend blame me?” The round-faced girl cheered, clapping her hands as she stood up and walked in circles on the empty space beside her.
“Phew~”
The oval-faced woman let out a sigh of relief. Then, she smacked the round-faced girl sulkily. “You still dare to speak? Remember, be more mindful of what you say in the future, don’t spill everything.”
“Hehe, Sister Qian, don’t worry. I promise that I’ll ask you before I say anything in the future!” The round-faced girl hugged the oval-faced woman’s shoulder in a fawning manner.
“Tsk, how many times have you said that?” The young man with messy hair rolled his eyes at her. Then, he looked at the oval-faced woman and said excitedly, “Qianqian, try asking this IT master if he’s the fourth-grade expert who destroyed a secret base of the Shi Family?”
“No.” The bearded man said unhappily, “Little Yue, can you not add to the trouble? How can we casually ask such a question?”
“I’m just curious.” The young man smiled awkwardly. “If the two of them are the same person, that would be even cooler. They would be unbelievably charming. A fourth-grade in martial arts, with godly IT skills. If such an expert joins us, then we have a chance of revenge. We don’t have to wait decades!”
As soon as he finished speaking, he looked at everyone in the office and whistled. “Hehe, don’t tell me you people don’t have such thoughts!”
“Cough cough.”
“I don’t. Don’t spout nonsense.”
“Right, when did I say something like that?”
“…”
When the others heard this, they all shook their heads and expressed that they were being wronged.
“Come on.”
When the young man heard this, he looked at everyone in disdain and grinned. “Is it fun to deceive yourself and others? I was wondering why the atmosphere has been so weird for the past two days. So you guys were thinking of this idea to attract this fourth-grade expert to join us! Hehe, you guys are really bold with your ideas, but I’m even bolder! Not only do I want this big shot to join us, I also want to acknowledge him as my master!”
“Tsk!”
The crowd, who had been embarrassed at first, started jeering when they heard the last sentence. They looked at the young man with disdain.
Become his disciple?
Wishful thinking!
Dream on, no, it’s impossible even in a dream!
“Stop fooling around, the Legend has replied again.” The round-faced girl suddenly shouted.
“Do you dare to take a big gamble?” The round-faced girl finished reading the contents word by word and asked doubtfully, “What does this mean?”
The oval-faced woman was also puzzled. She typed a reply, “You mean?”
…
“Wiping out the Shi Family, of course!”
Su Jingxing replied, “Don’t all of you have a feud with the Shi Family? Do you dare to pay with your lives just to take revenge on the Shi Family? Take a big gamble!”
Beep beep~
“Legend, do you have any good ideas?”
Still didn’t understand?
Su Jingxing pursed his lips and typed a reply. “Let me ask, do you people dare to sacrifice yourselves to destroy the Shi Family?”
“Yes!”
That’s it.
Su Jingxing chuckled and continued to reply, “That’s good. I have a way to make the Shi Family suffer heavy casualties and destroy their foundation. But the risk is huge and you might die any time.”
Beep beep~
“Senior, please feel free to speak your mind. From the moment our alliance was established, everyone was prepared to be sacrificed. We just don’t want to make unnecessary sacrifices. If we can destroy the Shi Family, we are willing to die for it.”
Gutsy!
Su Jingxing smiled and was about to reply when suddenly, more than ten web pages popped up on his computer. On each webpage, a post had popped up forcefully. On them were eye-catching titles.
Jin Mushen’s Treasure Is Hidden Underground of The Sky Water River Bank!
Qinghe City’s Treasure That You Don’t Know About!
Shocking! Turns Out There Is A Hundred-Year-Old Treasure Buried Beneath The Qinghe City!
Breaking News! Breaking News! A Hundred-Year-Old Treasure Has Appeared! Everyone, Go and Pick Up The Money!
…
The headlines were very eye-catching and people couldn’t wait to click on them.
Su Jingxing could not be bothered to discuss a plan with the people of the Stone Annihilation Alliance. He clicked on these posts and quickly read through them.
Once he did, he realized that on the southern bank of the Sky Water River Southern District, under the mud flat, a corrupt official named Jin Mushen had a tomb.
Inside the tomb were countless treasures that Jin Mushen had collected when he was alive.
Martial arts, money, weapons, jewelry, elixirs…
There was all kinds of good stuff.
Most importantly, pictures spoke the truth, there were many pictures in the post.
In the pictures, a few people had picked up several precious antiques on the mud flat. One of them even picked up a treasure weapon!
Although it was a treasure weapon with a chip, it was still a treasure weapon. Even if it was chipped, it was still worth more than a million dollars.
Apart from this, the post also introduced Jin Mushen’s life.
This fellow was a high-ranking official of the Changyang Prefecture more than 200 years ago. He was most greedy.
He had plundered countless treasures when he was still alive, but after his death, they were nowhere to be found.
Through the clues, words, and pictures, the post clearly pointed out that the treasure left behind by Jin Mushen was under the mud flat on the bank of the Sky Water River!
“Treasure of a corrupt official? Bullsh*t, it’s clearly a diversion!”
