Chapter 586: 438, Elf Clan High Priest, Divine Camel Clan Trading Company
The reactions from the outside world were all within Xu Gu’s expectations.
But Xu Gu did not care.
With the Human Clan and Champion Marquis as his backing, some dissatisfaction from the natives didn’t matter at all.
Of course, he was also very clear that even if he was special and the hope for the Human Clan’s future, if he kept troubling those kings of the Human Clan, it would inevitably lead to their dislike.
So, he chose the Bursting Gold Coins method.
As long as the benefits were substantial enough, those kings of the Human Clan would naturally not have any complaints and might even be overjoyed, ecstatic.
On that account, Xu Gu didn’t feel any loss.
If you want a horse to run, how can you not let it graze?
Moreover, this was only proper. The kings of the Human Clan help him, he reciprocates to the kings of the Human Clan, as is right and proper.
"Of course, distinctions between intimacy and formality still have to be made.
"The Champion Marquis and Eternal Sword Saint were the kindest to me, so the gifts for these two seniors should naturally be the best.
"As for the Sun Family, Zhao family, Chen Family, etc., they are secondary. As for the others, depending on the strength and power, let the Champion Marquis and Eternal Sword Saint decide."
Thinking up to this point, Xu Gu couldn’t help but laugh:
"I really am brilliant and virtuous!"
Although the Car Servants did not know why Xu Gu suddenly laughed,
after hearing Xu Gu’s words, they were all taken aback.
Brilliant and virtuous.
This matter seemed to have little to do with you, didn’t it?
...
"The 3rd Star has some unique qualities. It was discovered by other powers long ago and even excavated for a while.
"At the time, no one knew it was the Thunder God’s Relics.
"Therefore, the scope of activities is limited to the 3rd Star!
"Of course, after the 3rd Star accidentally got thrown out, it was cut off from the contact with other stars. Those creatures, even if they wanted to explore outside, were powerless."
Long Shi delivered the latest news to Xu Gu.
But, the news was of no use.
Because Xu Gu had already set foot on the 3rd Star.
These pieces of news, with just a slight listen, could be heard. People were discussing it everywhere on the streets.
"The Human Clan’s infiltration outside their territory is too weak. Their intelligence network is ridiculously poor." Xu Gu slightly shook his head: "We must conquer a native race from the Divine Domain Continent as soon as possible."
"The Qingqiu Fox Clan is not bad. Although they are from the Mechanical Sea Clan, their operations in the Divine Domain are not weaker than those of their native superpowers," Long Shi suggested.
"Moreover, the Saintess of the Qingqiu Fox Clan, or their chieftain, are both top-notch."
Witch Clan Saintess Lin Xuanji said:
"These bitches always act so high and mighty, thinking themselves as natural-born Elves, but in reality, they are more unruly than anyone! Master, you must definitely put them in their place!"
There was quite a bit of resentment in her speech.
In the Mechanical Sea, where the power of the Witch Clan was significant, not many forces dare to oppose the Witch Clan, yet the Qingqiu Fox Clan was one of them.
They were mutually displeased with each other.
Xu Gu casually said: "We’ll see if they know what’s good for them. If they don’t come forward with sincerity to apologize, of course, they’ll have to pay the price."
He was someone who held grudges.
Qing’er of the Qingqiu Fox Clan set him up for a fall. Such a thing could not just be let slide.
"I think they won’t apologize, and they might even take actions against the master," Lin Xuanji said after a moment of silence, truthfully stating her guess.
This was not out of resentment towards the Qingqiu Fox Clan stirring up trouble, but her actual conjecture.
Then, there was a hint of worry.
The Qingqiu Fox Clan’s influence was so great in the Mechanical Sea that they could be called a hegemon!
If they were to target Xu Gu, it would be difficult for Xu Gu to counter them lightly. The main problem was that Xu Gu had provoked too many enemies.
She feared that Xu Gu might not be able to cope when the time comes.
"If they don’t apologize, they die. It’s that simple," Xu Gu said nonchalantly and with composure.
Then, his gaze shifted forward, closing the topic.
The entire 3rd Star was bustling with activity.
Unlike the 2nd Star’s false hustle, this liveliness was genuine.
Because the 3rd Star was discovered early, some powers had been active there for a long time, and even built quite a few structures, planning to make this star their territory.
This made Xu Gu deeply distressed.
"Damn it, who discovered this star in advance? So much of my treasure has been taken away."
While thinking this way, suddenly a profound bell sound echoed in the distance.
"To all the genius talents with astonishing potential, all the mighty figures with overwhelming power, many treasures on the 3rd Star have already been mostly excavated by our Divine Camel Clan.
"This was our fault.
"To apologize, we will sell all the excavated treasures at a discounted price. Some precious and rare treasures will be auctioned off at a discount!"
Xu Gu’s eyes flickered slightly.
The Divine Camel Clan, as the name implies, is a group of camels. Of course, these are camels that have been touched by divine auras, extraordinary and possessing Extraordinary Power.
In the Divine Domain Continent, they can barely count as a major power. There is an Upper King presiding over them.
Whether there is support from the descendants of the Divine in secret, it is unknown to the public.
Their function in the Divine Domain Continent is similar to that of the Earth Dragon Envoy, though their status is certainly not as high as Earth Dragon Envoys.
They primarily run trade across the entire Divine Domain Continent.
Belonging to a neutral force.
Because they are able to travel quickly, store treasures, and are a neutral force, in the entire Divine Domain Continent’s business activities, their position is nearly irreplaceable.
"No wonder they would choose to deal with the harvest from this star at a low price." Lin Xuanji suddenly understood.
The Divine Camel Clan conducts business throughout the realm, always needing to maintain a neutral identity, and also maintain friendships with other races and forces.
An innocent man is guiltless; possessing jade makes him guilty.
If they didn’t hand over the harvest, would other creatures and strong beings agree to it?
Envy is inevitable, and fighting is also inevitable.
Compared to the minor treasures on Star #3, it is obviously more worthwhile to continue maintaining a neutral identity and continue commerce across the realm.
"Shall we go in?" the Earth Dragon Envoy asked.
"Let’s go, take a look." Xu Gu’s expression was cold.
He wanted to see who dared to covet his treasures.
It’s not that he was being overbearing.
It was because the Thunder God’s daughter was right by his side, these treasures should naturally be his!
Thinking this, Xu Gu’s gaze fell on the Thunder Sparrow.
At this time, whether the Thunder Sparrow was the Thunder God’s daughter or not, she was the Thunder God’s daughter!
Xu Gu couldn’t help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly with a smile.
"Huh?" Feeling Xu Gu’s smile, the Thunder Sparrow didn’t know why, but she felt an ominous feeling, involuntarily shrinking her neck, her face full of confusion.
Is it an illusion?
He looks so handsome when he smiles! How could there be an ominous feeling?
...
The merchant hall built by the Divine Camel Clan was incredibly exquisite and beautiful.
It was even more opulent than the Qingqiu Fox Clan’s holographic projections or magical illusions, looking like the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, with a bit of the flavor of the Egyptian pyramids, giving an ancient ambiance upon entering, with much of the charm of Human Clan architecture.
Xu Gu even saw a touch of Atlantis in it.
"This is a divine architectural style."
An older Golden Beast explained, "After the Human Clan and various other civilizations, the divine beings’ architectural style has borrowed quite a bit from the style of past Cosmic Sovereigns.
"This Divine Camel Clan has probably done a certain level of restoration on the architecture of the Thunder God’s Relics."
After saying this, the Golden Beast, looking at those luxurious decorations, couldn’t help but say:
"The Divine Camel Clan is really rich! These decorations are all SS-grade materials, worthy of being merchants across the realm."
Xu Gu silently noted the name of the Divine Camel Clan.
Geniuses and powerhouses from all directions gathered here.
"Eh, that one is the Elf Clan’s High Priest, said to be the Elf King’s lover. Originally, when the Elf King betrayed and suppressed the Elf Queen Leanna, it was her who instigated him from behind.
"I thought the Elf King went missing after being hunted by the Night Owl Queen, causing the Night Owl Queen to vent her anger against the entire Elf Clan, and this High Priest was killed.
"Who would have thought she’d appear here?"
Some of the local geniuses and powerhouses saw a figure wrapped in a white robe, covered tightly but still unable to conceal her perfect body and exquisite curves, and couldn’t help but say:
"Rumor has it, she is stunningly beautiful, enough to make one fall head over heels at first sight! Speaking a single word with her makes you feel as if you’re floating in ecstasy. There were Upper Kings who asked for her hand in marriage, but she refused them all. It’s said that in this life, she only loves the Elf King."
"Should we strike up a conversation with her? With the Elf King gone and the Elf Clan gone too, she’s at her most down and out, so she should be easy to approach."
"Are you mad! Her strength is not less than that of an ordinary Intermediate King! Strictly speaking, she is actually an elder of the Elf King and Elf Queen."
"This time coming here, could it be that she’s seeking revenge against Xu Gu? It was Xu Gu that led to the Elf King’s disappearance and the Elf Clan’s near-extinction!"
The surrounding creatures buzzed with discussion.
"Is that the old hag? The wet nurse of the Poison Son? Said to be the Poison Son, whose identity is also very special! A bastard of some big shot, and can only be raised by the old hag!"
"Seems like the Poison Son also died at the hands of Xu Gu?"
The crowd marveled.
Then, they roughly understood something.
As the deeds of Xu Gu were revealed, some big forces and super big forces on the Divine Domain Continent, ultimately due to face or fear of the Champion Marquis, a powerful demigod, did not dare to use too strong of forces against Xu Gu.
While people like the old hag, who were alone and had few considerations, seized the opportunity.
Just right, Star #3 was connected to the outside world, with fewer restrictions for entry.
As everyone was discussing.
Suddenly, a fragrance drifted over.
Causing countless creatures to exclaim in surprise.
From the void, flowers rained down, and two figures, a man and a woman, appeared.
Among them, the male creature was radiant and gleaming, adorned all in precious Holy Gold, causing countless female creatures to exclaim.
Exclaiming how handsome he was.
"What’s handsome? Isn’t he just a bit richer? Even my dog at home looks better!"
Some men said displeased.
What made the male creatures exclaim, of course, was the woman.
Wearing a transparent gown, revealing an incomparable figure and delicate curves that attracted the eyes of countless male creatures around.
As for her looks, she was delicate and pleasing, making countless men short of breath and intoxicated.
They were the golden boy and jade girl of the Divine Camel Clan.
Responsible for most of the Divine Camel Clan’s public-facing work.
It’s said that the Divine Camel Clan’s golden boy and jade girl are not actually members of the Clan, but are selected based on their outstanding looks and temperament from among all races and creatures on the Divine Domain Continent, and raised from a young age.
