Chapter 859: Iron Nuggets

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

When Li Yunmu left the city lord’s mansion, Ashbi announced the matters of lower city’s residents forming Ground Clan as well as the division of territory throughout Asura City.

When the people of Asura City heard the two decrees, some rejoiced while some were worried. When the slum dwellers residing in the colosseum heard the name Ground Clan, all of them began to cheer. They would no longer be the lowest denizens of Asura City.

Instead, they would be descendants of the fifth clan of Asura City.

Li Yunmu would be their ancestor, and the true symbol of clan in their heart.

There were many comments about it within the four great clans. When the bottom layer descendants spoke the name of Chen Xiu, they gnashed their teeth with their faces filled with envy. Who had expected that a trifling branch descendant would become an ancestor of Asura City and divide the territory with City Lord Ashbi, thus becoming the ruler of half of Asura City?

When the elders of Morrow Clan, which belonged to the faction that wanted to get close to Chen Xiu, heard the news, they looked at the elders of the other faction to continue with their cold war. If they had joined Chen Xiu and become his subordinates, then not only would all the resources and power of belief belong to them, close to half of the city would also be under them.

Chen Xiu’s territory was much larger than what they had when the four clans controlled Asura City together.

After the four patriarchs returned to their respective clans, they divided their resource lands into two and marked the boundary on a map. They attached the maps to a letter and gave it to a messenger. Four messengers then quickly came out of the mansions, but were stopped by the god level elders of the clans.

The elders opened the maps to check the division of resource lands, and their expressions changed. Without saying anything, they properly folded the personal letters and returned them to the messengers.

Soon after, the branch family descendants of the four clans residing in the territory of Ground Clan packed their luggage and prepared to move to the clan residence. Within a short time, the territory of Ground Clan was completely emptied out, since everyone else was gathered in the colosseum.

Rat held a letter delivered by one of the four clans as he anxiously rushed to see Li Yunmu. He hadn’t thought that the four clans would be so fast in taking action and partition the resource lands so quickly.

The four sealed letters were very precious.

“Lord, lord, the four clans have sent the maps with the division of the resource lands.”

Rat stopped before the door while gasping for breath and knocked on it with all his strength.

“Come in.”

A clamorous sound came from the room.

When Rat heard the command to enter, he opened the door and walked inside. Once inside the room, he saw Li Yunmu wearing a large iron mask and rapidly beating a pile of iron with a weapon in his hands.

While he was doing so, countless dazzling sparks flew out of the pile of iron. They were followed by dense smoke.

Rat respectfully stood to the side and watched curiously with his tiny eyes. But the sparks flying out of the pile of iron were extremely dazzling and the smoke was somewhat suffocating, so he could not see what exactly was going on.

“Don’t look, or you will go blind,” Li Yunmu said through the iron mask.

After hearing that, Rat shuddered and anxiously closed his eyes.

After a long time, the ear-piercing sound disappeared. Rat could not hold back and opened his eyes slightly to take a look and saw that there were no sparks or smoke anymore. He opened his eyes wide then and took note of a dark and swarthy iron glove on Li Yunmu’s hand. It intrigued him.

It was a piece of battle armor, so why was Lord personally working on it? The dark and swarthy appearance also appeared excessively amateurish.

Without thinking much, Rat placed the letters delivered by the messengers of four clans in front of Li Yunmu and excitedly said, “Lord, the four clans delivered the maps marking the division of resource lands, so your distinguished self should take a look.”

Li Yunmu’s complete attention was on the dark and swarthy iron glove. When he heard Rat’s words, he spoke without paying much attention to him. “You open them and take a look at how the regions of resources were divided.”

“Alright.”

Rat took out one of the maps and began to look. When he saw the designated resource lands, his expression changed completely. The excitement from just a moment ago vanished without a trace.

After taking a thorough look at the map, he quickly opened the second and third letters.

He opened the letters from all four clans and placed them on the table. He then looked at the resource areas marked on the maps, and his expression grew dark.

He turned toward Li Yunmu and indignantly said, “Lord, you should see what resource areas the four clans handed over to us! They are repulsive. The four clans clearly want to send our Ground Clan descendants to death.”

Li Yunmu placed down the iron glove and looked at the resource areas marked on the map. They seemed kinda big and were distributed in all four directions out of Asura City.

The largest amount of resources was close to Asura City. The more outward the resources point was, the worse its quality. The area marked by the four great clans for Li Yunmu’s resources surpassed half of the total area.

But his resource lands were at the very edge of Asura City’s boundary and contained the lowest quality resources. The most important thing though was that they were close to the border with the territories of the other ancient gods.

In ordinary times, the borders were peaceful, but if war broke out, the first areas to suffer attacks would be the resource lands sent out to Li Yunmu.

When Li Yunmu saw that, a hint of a smile appeared on his lips. After he returned from the city lord’s mansion, he was aware that the four great clans would never let him obtain the resource lands which he wanted.

But in the end, he was still one of the rulers of Asura City, so the four clan patriarchs could not refuse him directly. Li Yunmu also did not mention which resource lands he wanted, so the four clan patriarchs naturally transferred the most dangerous and inferior resource lands to him.

Rat’s face was dark and his heart full of fury. When the city lord announced the two decrees and called the lower city’s residents the Ground Clan, he had become extremely emotional in his heart.

When he learnt about the division of resources, he became even more excited. Not only would they have their own clan, they would even get their own resource lands.

“I know that the four clan patriarchs harbor malicious intentions. Although the resource lands transferred by them are inferior and dangerous, the area is large, which is pretty good,” Li Yunmu said with a smile while inspecting the dark and swarthy iron glove inside out.

“Lord, the resource lands provided by the four clans are on the borders, so how will our Ground Clan manage them? Only half god level powerhouses can defend those resource lands, but the Ground Clan has only one god—you,” Rat said with hesitation.

Li Yunmu passed the dark and swarthy iron glove to Rat and said, “You try it out, see how are the results.”

What results? What sort of effect could an iron glove produce?

Rat disapprovingly put on the iron glove, waved it in the air, then said with a smile, “Lord, this iron glove doesn’t look good. If your distinguished self wants battle armor, you can ask other people to manufacture it. The workmanship of those people is very fine. I guarantee that it will be much better if they did it.”

Li Yunmu was startled. He then extended his hand and flicked Rat’s head with a smile. “Who said I want to create my own battle armor!”
