Chapter 537: Splitting the Spoils

Chapter 537: Splitting the Spoils

Yu Hua revealed an entirely different side of him, leaving Xia Fei doubtful and suspicious. Just when Xia Fei was getting lost in some absurd ideas, a new development took place!

“I’m taking you two down with me!”

Jin Gu saw that his clan’s steward was dead, and in rage, he took out a black metal sphere from his ring.

This sphere looked like a grenade, its black surface gleaming.

“We’ll perish together!” Jin Gu brashly called out as he slammed the sphere on the ground.

Xia Fei instinctively felt danger. He wanted to charge up and stop Jin Gu!

“Hurry up and follow me!” Yu Hua pulled back Xia Fei, his eyes brimming with shock.

“This is a Law bomb! A destructive weapon the Jin Clan excels at making!”

*Bang!*

As he spoke, the bomb exploded.

Space rapidly shattered and collapsed.

A tiny bomb could be this powerful? Shattering the fabric of space? Xia Fei was stupefied!

Yu Hua pulled on Xia Fei with one hand while his other hand sliced through the air.

*Whoosh~*

A spatial door was forcefully opened, and Yu Hua, Xia Fei, Furball, and that meteor containing Darkness Metal vanished without a trace.

*Plush!*

Yu Hua vomited blood.

He had already expended much of his energy in that clash with the other two Law Emperors, and then had to use Law energy to tear through the Golden Bell Curtain, and adding the power of the spatial bomb, it all amounted to a fatal blow!

…

When sunlight reemerged, Xia Fei and Yu Hua were in an unfamiliar valley. Besides Furball and the meteor containing Darkness Metal, there was one of Jin Shuimin’s arms.

Yu Hua leaned against the side of a mountain and panted for breath, occasionally vomiting blood. This battle had clearly done significant damage to him.

He took a pill from his spatial ring and placed it in his mouth, and then he closed his eyes to rest. He said nothing, focusing entirely on healing his injuries.

Xia Fei sat on the side, still feeling some lingering fear from the power of that spatial bomb. If Yu Hua had not used his Law energy to block the shockwave, the consequences would have been unthinkable.

He felt somewhat grateful to Yu Hua, but he also felt somewhat uneasy.

Yu Hua felt unfathomable to Xia Fei. On the surface, he seemed like the usual unscrupulous businessman, even remembering the small sum Xia Fei owed him, but Yu Hua was also a very arrogant Great Law Emperor with a profound cultivation. He had just revealed his wild side, leaving Xia Fei to wonder what had made Yu Hua have such a major split in personality.

Xia Fei did not like people whom he could not see through. It made him feel like he was in danger.

He glanced at the meteor next to him. Darkness Metal was immensely valuable, and it was right in front of him, so he could not help but be tempted. Jin Shuimin’s severed arm was also sporting a flashing spatial ring. As a Law Emperor, he had probably been carrying around a lot of valuable things with him.

Yu Hua’s breathing gradually stabilized, and his complexion began to improve.

Xia Fei suddenly had an idea. If he killed Yu Hua, then both the Darkness Metal and Jin Shuimin’s spatial ring would be his.

Yu Hua was heavily injured. This was a chance for Xia Fei!

His eyes chilled, but he quickly gave up on the idea.

Xia Fei knew very well how powerful Yu Hua was. Alone, Xia Fei did not have the power to fight a Law Emperor. He would be taking on an enormous risk.

Moreover, Xia Fei did not know where he was. Even if he was lucky enough to kill Yu Hua, if he ended up being trapped in here, he would still be in a dire situation.

Seating himself across from Yu Hua, Xia Fei began to meditate. He took out a grade 3 Origin Crystal from his spatial ring and began cultivating the Space law. He was only a bit away from reaching level 5, and Xia Fei would never give up on an opportunity to improve himself.

The Darkness Metal and that tempting spatial ring were right in front of him, but he pretended not to see.

If Xia Fei had a Law Sovereign’s cultivation, he would definitely try to kill Yu Hua and take the treasure for himself, but he did not do it now, for the risk was far too great. In the end, strength reigned supreme. If he had been strong enough, the result would definitely have been different.

Yu Hua saw that Xia Fei was focused on cultivating, and he furtively smiled.

“Quite the smart one.” Yu Hua quietly noted.

…

Xia Fei quickly entered a meditative state, the allure of the Darkness Metal swept away. He had seemingly forgotten his existence as he engrossed himself in cultivating Laws.

The fifth pattern in his brain region was finally completed, and an indescribable joy filled his heart.

Opening his eyes, he saw Yu Hua smiling at him, a look of pleasant surprise in his eyes.

The Darkness Metal and Jin Shuimin’s spatial ring were still in their original positions. It could be seen that Yu Hua had not touched them.

“You advanced again?” Yu Hua asked with a smile.

Xia Fei nodded. “Mm. I just reached level 5. Is your body okay?”

Yu Hua said, “Level 5 after only half a month? You’ve set a new record. I’ve seen people advance quickly, but not this quickly.

“I’ve taken a hard shock from the Space law, but there’s no need to worry. I only need a few days of rest to recover.”

Xia Fei asked, “How exactly was that spatial bomb made? Its power was absurd.”

Yu Hua shook his head. “The Sunglory Jin Clan is an illustrious family in the circle. Besides spatial defense arts, they have a top-class artificer, Jin Yanke. He is the one who made both the Golden Bell Curtain and that incredibly powerful spatial bomb. Casa is probably in a complete mess right now. When a spatial bomb explodes, everything within a hundred kilometers will be flattened, the fabric of space shattered. No one could have survived it.”

Xia Fei firmly nodded. A spatial bomb could tear apart space, so the people within that space would naturally be torn apart as well.

“But this is actually a good thing. No one will know that we killed members of the Jin and Liu families. They’ll think that all the Law Adepts on site died together,” Yu Hua indifferently said.

He had particularly emphasized the word ‘we’, his meaning obvious. He was reminding Xia Fei that, if this matter got out, there was no way he could plead innocence.

“The risk was big, but so was the harvest.” Yu Hua pointed at the Darkness Metal and Jin Shuimin’s spatial ring. “Alas, we left in such a rush that I didn’t get a chance to grab Liu Hanzong’s spatial ring. He was also a Law Emperor, so he probably carried a lot of good things.”

Unmoved, Xia Fei continued to listen to Yu Hua speak.

“Come, let’s split the spoils.” As Yu Hua spoke, he looked at Furball. This fellow was slumbering in Xia Fei’s bosom, completely free of worries.

“How should we split it?” Yu Hua stroked his chin and muttered. “Xia Fei, do you have any good ideas?”

Xia Fei smiled. He knew that Yu Hua was testing him.

“It was all due to your efforts that we could get all this. You have the right to decide how we split it.”

Yu Hua smiled and nodded. “Darkness Metal is very valuable, or else I wouldn’t go through so much effort to get it.

“How about this: I’ll give you two options and you choose one?”

Xia Fei expressed his agreement, and Yu Hua continued. “If you don’t want Darkness Metal, I can give you Jin Shuimin’s spatial ring. He was a Law Emperor, and his clan produces spatial weapons. There are probably many valuable things inside it.

“If you like Darkness Metal, I can give you one-third of it, together with this spatial ring, but everything inside the spatial ring will be mine. From the size of the meteor, we should be able to get fifteen kilograms of Darkness Metal from it.”

Yu Hua’s meaning was obvious. He had pointed out that Jin Shuimin’s clan specialized in the production of spatial weapons to tempt Xia Fei into giving up on the Darkness Metal and choosing the ring and its contents.

Xia Fei hugged Furball and made an exception in feeding him a grade 3 Origin Crystal. Furball was delighted and nuzzled Xia Fei with even greater affection.

“This meteor is very strange, so just give some for me to research,” Xia Fei nonchalantly said.

Frowning, Yu Hua asked, “You want to give up on the contents of the spatial ring and choose the metal?”

Xia Fei smiled. “I’ve been a collector of strange and curious objects since I was a boy. Besides, since the Jin Clan’s Law weapons are produced by Master Jin Yanke, they presumably carry his mark. Any high-ranked artificer will have a habit of placing their mark on their products. If someone finds out that I have one of the personal weapons of the Jin family, I might have to suffer the consequences. At my level of cultivation, I dare not to be rash.

“But that spatial ring appears rather inconspicuous. If I take it, no one will recognize it. Thus, no matter how much I want a spatial weapon, I can’t choose the option. I can only take option two.”

Yu Hua felt sullen. He had used the high-class products in the spatial ring to tempt Xia Fei, but he had forgotten a most basic problem. While those were excellent products, their origins were easily exposed, so the gains did not make up for the losses.

Looking at Furball, Yu Hua smiled. “It’s settled, then. Once we get back, I’ll personally refine Darkness Metal. Once it’s done, I’ll give you one-third.”

Xia Fei harmlessly smiled. “I’ll leave this to you.”

After moving the contents into his spatial ring, Yu Hua threw the golden ring over to Xia Fei. “It’s got quite a lot of space, around ten thousand cubic meters.”

Xia Fei was astonished. Ten thousand cubic meters? That was ten times more than his current ring!

He stroked a finger across the ring. Sure enough, Yu Hua had actually given a conservative estimate. This ring was able to hold at least twelve thousand cubic meters!

“Yu Hua seems like a rather decent person. Anyone else would’ve just killed you, and there’s no need to split anything with you. What a nice guy! After all, this is a spatial ring with twelve thousand cubic meters of space!” Phantom said into Xia Fei’s ear.

Xia Fei indifferently said, “Let’s wait and see. Even if he means me no harm, it will be best to be on my guard. I don’t like people whom I can’t see through.”

Phantom pursed his lips. “I think that Yu Hua’s rather nice. Don’t forget that it’s because of him that you could come to the Law Realm.”

Xia Fei lightly petted Furball. This fellow was in an excellent mood after eating a grade 3 Origin Crystal, vigorously nuzzling his chest.

“Because of Yu Hua or because of Furball? It’s hard to say,” Xia Fei muttered to himself. He was beginning to feel more and more certain that Yu Hua and Yu Jiang had invited him because of Furball. After all, his seventh brain region had been severely damaged, and he had essentially been trash. Great Law Emperors like Yu Jiang and Yu Hua had to have known this.

Waving his hands, Yu Hua said, “I still need to rest for a few days. Use this time to try for the level 6 threshold. That one is very difficult”, Yu Hua mysteriously said after changing the topic, “but with my help, that puny threshold is no problem at all. I have a trick that can accelerate your breakthrough. Do you want to know?”

Xia Fei was stunned. A trick to accelerate his breakthrough? If there really was a trick, it would be far too valuable to a Law Warrior!

Level 6 was incredibly difficult to reach, with many adepts going their entire lives without success, and Yu Hua was planning to tell that secret to Xia Fei?!

“Well? Didn’t I say that Yu Hua means you no harm? He even wants to teach you a trick to reach level 6!” Phantom smugly said.

Xia Fei frowned, muttering to himself, “Could Yu Hua really not mean me harm? Am I really being too paranoid?”
