Chapter 180 – Stats Gem

Translator: Mr Voltaire

Editor: Modlawls123

While looking at these exquisite stone doors, Zhao Fu stretched out his hand and used his strength to slowly push them open. It was quite dark behind the doors, and Zhao Fu could only see about 5 meters ahead of him. It was completely silent ahead, and the region beyond gave him a sense of eeriness.

Just as Zhao Fu started to enter, a formless energy blocked him, surprising him.

Zhao Fu suddenly thought of the Gloomy Jungle command medallion. After taking out a command medallion, the formless energy in front of him instantly vanished.

Zhao Fu had already fused together 67 of these command medallions, and he distributed them to the Goblins, planning to bring them in with him. However, Zhao Fu found that the Goblins could enter without command medallions, so he took them back.

Zhao Fu led the Goblins and lit a few torches before entering into the s.p.a.ce beyond the doors.

At first, it seemed like a very long corridor, and everyone proceeded nervously with their guards up against any unexpected surprises.

After walking for a while, they arrived at a jungle within the castle, and it was quite dark inside. However, they could still make out some things. The trees here were incredibly lush, and they heard strange noises from time to time, making this jungle seem quite frightening.

Onwards!

Soon, Zhao Fu encountered a few Goblin Club-Wielders. These Goblins were different than the ones outside, as their skin and eyes were black. Moreover, apart from looking ferocious, they also gave off a sense of evilness.

In terms of strength, they were a bit stronger than normal Goblin Club-Wielders, but this wasn’t a problem as Zhao Fu’s Goblins were all Hobgoblins and Blue Red Goblins. Zhao Fu essentially didn’t have to do anything as the Hobgoblins went up to surround them and swung their sharp swords, reducing those Goblins to corpses in just a few moments.

Apart from dropping some command medallion fragments, they also dropped a type of gemstone that was about as big as a fingernail. These gemstones were all different colors and shapes. Some were rhombuses; some were squares; and some were irregular shapes. From their appearance, they at least seemed quite pretty. Zhao Fu picked one up and looked at its stats:

[Stats Gem – Red]: Grade: White, Stats: Strength +1, Description: Equipping this on any piece of equipment will apply bonus stats.

There were 4 types of gemstones: red ones increased Strength; white ones increased Intelligence; green ones increased Const.i.tution; and blue ones increased Agility.

“Is this the benefit of secret regions?”

Holding the gemstones in his hand, Zhao Fu stood there and thought about it, and he realized the value of this secret region. Blue grade equipment only gave one stat point and was incredibly easy to find, while these gemstones seemed quite rare. As such, these gemstones would be worth even more than normal Blue grade equipment.

When he thought of this, a trace of a smile appeared on Zhao Fu’s face – Great Qin had found yet another way to strengthen itself. However, in the next moment, countless terrifying figures flew out incredibly quickly from the side.

Immediately, cries of pain sounded out as a dark figure swept towards Zhao Fu as well.

Zhao Fu’s gaze became cold, and he drew the Sky Demon Sword in an instant, slas.h.i.+ng with it and sending out an arc of light.

Clang!

A metallic collision sound rang out as Zhao Fu’s sword was blocked by his enemy’s claws, allowing Zhao Fu to see what creature it was.

This creature was somewhat like a cat and had a humanoid physique. It was covered with fur, concealing its appearance and revealing only a mouthful of sharp teeth.

The name of this creature was displayed to be Cat Demon!

Zhao Fu’s sword continued to clash against the Cat Demon’s claws, and the arm holding the sword started to feel numb. After remaining in this stalemate for a few seconds, the Cat Demon leaped backwards and hid within the lush jungle.

Seeing this, Zhao Fu immediately yelled, “Hurry, retreat!”

From that single exchange, Zhao Fu found that these Cat Demons’ strength had reached Stage 2, and they were also incredibly fast. If they didn’t retreat, they would all die here.

Following this, Zhao Fu and his Goblins immediately started to retreat from this place.

Half an hour later, Zhao Fu and the Goblins escaped, but they looked quite wretched. Three of the Goblins had died inside, leaving only 29 now.

Standing outside the door, Zhao Fu let out a breath when he saw that they were safe now. Gloomy Jungle was not a place that they could explore right now; it was simply too dangerous.

The Cat Demons’ strength was at least at Stage 2, and they were ridiculously fast. What’s more, there were many of them, so he could only give up for now.

Zhao Fu closed the stone doors and gave out some recovery items to heal some of the injured Goblins. Zhao Fu had also received some injuries, but because they were all surface injuries, the three Flower Spirits were able to quickly heal him.

Afterwards, Zhao Fu sat on a large rock and started to think about what to do next.

Since he couldn’t explore Gloomy Jungle for now, he could only leave. He had already stayed here for half a month and had no idea what the situation in the Great Qin Town was like, so it was time for him to return. However, this required luck – he hoped that he would be able to find a village with a teleportation channel, but this was not something he could do by worrying.

He had a Teleportation Talisman that could allow him to teleport anywhere within 10,000 kilometers, but it was incredibly rare and could only reduce his journey by one-third. Even if he used the Teleportation Talisman, he would still be 20,000 kilometers away from Ninsun City. What’s more, Zhao Fu was quite reluctant to use this item, and he would only use it in a situation to save his life. Even in the battle against s.h.i.+ Jian, he didn’t use it because he knew that he would be able to survive if he went all-out.

However, before leaving here, Zhao Fu still had to do a few things. Because Gloomy Jungle could bring him a lot of benefits, he could not just leave it as it was in case something happened to it.

Zhao Fu decided to establish a village here to protect this place but also to make it easier for him to find this place in the future. However, Zhao Fu didn’t have a City Creation Stone right now, so after the Goblins had more or less recovered, Zhao Fu took them exploring.

Chapter 53 – Secret Hatred

The woman was Ji Qin, the person who had brought him here. Zhao Fu thought about it before opening the door and asking, “What is it?”

Ji Qin slightly smiled and said, “Mr. Zhao, Big Miss Xi has invited you to meet with her.”

Zhao Fu stared at her in surprise for a split-second. He knew who Big Miss Xi was. She was called Ying Xi and the successor of one of the Ying family’s 6 main bloodlines. Why did she want to meet him? It wasn’t because his ident.i.ty as the Great Qin Legatee had been exposed because no one could possibly know about that.

“Why does Ying Xi want to see me?” Zhao Fu realized that she might have heard about what had just happened and thought that there was value in using him.

Zhao Fu thought about it before nodding and leaving with Ji Qin and the security guards. They came to a beautiful garden where there was a beautiful young woman who looked around 23 or 24 years old. She was wearing a white dress and looked like a celestial G.o.ddess among the flowers.

“Big Miss Xi, I’ve brought him here,” Ji Qin respectfully said as she slightly bowed.

Ying Xi had just picked a small flower and charmingly smiled before looking at Zhao Fu and nodding.

When Ying Xi looked at him, he remained expressionless and calmly stood still.

“Come with me!” Ying Xi said before turning and walking away.

Zhao Fu followed behind her, and soon, they reached a pavilion within the garden. Ying Xi sat on an exquisitely-made bamboo chair and signaled for Zhao Fu to also sit. Zhao Fu nodded and sat down facing her.

“Do you know why I asked to meet you?” Ying Xi asked as she slightly smiled.

Zhao Fu thought about it, and even though he could guess why, he pretended not to know and shook his head.

Seeing this, Ying Xi asked in satisfaction, “Then do you hate the Li family?”

Just as expected, through what had happened, the Ying family’s higher-ups had found out about his ident.i.ty. Zhao Fu did not hide anything and truthfully replied, “I do!”

“If I help you take revenge, would you be willing to join my faction? Don’t worry; I’ll make sure you stay safe, and no one will be able to threaten your wellbeing.”

Ying Xi did not beat around the bush and directly made her intentions clear after seeing the hatred in Zhao Fu’s eyes.

“Help me take revenge?”

Zhao Fu knew that Ying Xi would not actually help him take revenge. Rather, she wanted to use him as a p.a.w.n to control the Li family in the future.

In the chaotic times to come, the world would be filled with war. Each of the large families started to make preparations, and the Ying family was no exception. If the Ying family wanted to deal with the Li family, Zhao Fu would be an important piece.

This was because Zhao Fu also had the Li family’s bloodline. Even though he was not much right now, if the Ying family supported him, he would be able to divide the Li family and control it while remaining as one of the Ying family’s pieces.

The Ying family had many collateral family members, so why would it choose to nurture Zhao Fu? It was because the p.a.w.n could not be too stupid, or the Ying family would be unable to control the Li family, and the p.a.w.n also couldn’t be too intelligent because he or she could turn against the Ying family.

Moreover, Zhao Fu’s ident.i.ty was also quite attractive. Controlling someone with the Ying family’s bloodline was much better than controlling a member of the Li family’s collateral family.

Zhao Fu had long since guessed Ying Xi’s goal, and everything she said was within his expectations. As such, Zhao Fu did not act too stupidly, nor did he reveal too much of his shrewdness.

Before coming here, Zhao Fu had wanted to expose his status as Great Qin’s Legatee. Even though the Ying family and Li family were both quite dangerous, he had no choice. If he did not reveal his status, he might be killed by the Li family, so he had to reveal himself to stay alive and hope to slowly deal with the Ying family in the future.

Zhao Fu’s current schemes were enough to make even some of the old foxes terrified and the strategists to be in awe. Zhao Fu had experienced many hards.h.i.+ps since he was young and seen much of the world. His experiences let him understand the nature of this cruel world.

Zhao Fu had been by himself most of his life, and loneliness was indeed something that could bring someone pain and drive a person to madness. However, it could also cause a person to mature and see through other people’s hearts, which was why Zhao Fu’s personality and intellect were like this.

Zhao Fu nodded and agreed to Ying Xi’s request. Since she would treat him as a p.a.w.n, he would use her to guarantee his safety for now. They were both merely using each other, and agreeing was in Zhao Fu’s best interests right now.

For now, Ying Xi could control him completely, so he would act as she wished. As for the Li family, he didn’t need anyone to help him take revenge – only by staining one’s hands with the blood of those who one hated could one be satisfied.

Ying Xi was delighted when Zhao Fu agreed. Zhao Fu was an important p.a.w.n in her plans, so she immediately ordered for Zhao Fu to be treated well and moved to an even safer place.

Bang!

Within a room in the Li family’s residence, Li Feng furiously slammed his palm on the table and yelled, “The Ying family has gone too far!”

Li Feng was this furious because the Ying family had sent a message, “If Zhao Fu dies, we will slaughter 100 people from the main family.”

The Ying family did not put the Li family in its eyes at all. The Li family was still quite a large family and had its own pride, so how could Li Feng accept such a thing?

“Hmph!” Li Feng coldly harrumphed as he said, “The Ying family is too arrogant. Do they think that the Li family has no talents and would fear the Ying family?”

When the butler saw that Li Feng was so furious that it looked like he wanted to start a war with the Ying family, the butler, who was beside him, quickly said, “Sir, please calm down. Acting against the Ying family right now simply isn’t rational. They haven’t found the Great Qin’s Legatee yet, so we should lay low for now. In the future, the Li family will definitely grow to be much more powerful than the Ying family, and it won’t be too late to deal with them then.”

Li Feng nodded, his anger receding slightly as he asked, “Have you disposed of the a.s.sa.s.sin? We can’t give the Ying family an opportunity to grasp onto us.”

The butler respectfully replied, “Don’t worry, sir, he has already been dealt with.”

Li Feng let out a sigh of relief. If the a.s.sa.s.sin had fallen into the Ying family’s hands, there would have been great trouble for the Li family. It would have been possible for the Ying family to say that the Li family had tried to kill an illegitimate child but failed, causing the Li family’s reputation to take a hit.

However, Li Feng felt that he had overlooked something. After that b.a.s.t.a.r.d joined the Ying family, he had sent an a.s.sa.s.sin after him. No matter how well he took care of that matter, the Ying family definitely knew that the a.s.sa.s.sin was sent by the Li family. However, if the Li family did not act now and allowed Zhao Fu to grow, dealing with him would become more and more troublesome in the future. If he had known that this would happen, he would have killed both the mother and the son back then.

Li Feng couldn’t help but hate Zhao Fu even more.
