Chapter 500: Chapter 496: Show Loyalty

If the Void Stomach was exposed, conflict would be almost inevitable.

Confronting the business alliance or a powerful family could be decided upon without much thought.

This was the reason for Cui Dayou choosing the Ye Family and weaving lies, but it didn’t mean that elders of the Du family could understand.

“A businessman,” Du Ting disdained, glancing contemptuously at Cui Dayou.

“Master Cui really is a good friend.”

Even if the Ye family coveted the Void Stomach very much, the head of the Ye family considered Cui Dayou to be someone he could confide in. Du Ting would never choose to confront a family where his good friends were if left with no option.

What would happen to his friend if he just walked away?

Such a complete villain! Du Wei and Du Ling also curtly turned their heads away, looking disgusted about associating with such.

Yet, Cui Dayou seemed unperturbed, smiling and saying, “I am the steward of the Tang family first, and then a good friend of Brother Ye. Moreover, this is not to harm the Du family. The cash in the seniors’ hands is enough to buy these foods and grains. What do the few seniors think?”

This statement drew a cold hum from several elders of the Du family. The three people left the center of the granary and walked towards the granary door, not even deigning to glance at Cui Dayou.

Cui Dayou seemed utterly unaffected by the contempt in their attitudes, and instead respectfully said, “I am grateful for the effort of the seniors in guarding the gate!”

While Du Ting and the others were arguing with Cui Dayou, Du Sha had been watching Tang Luo who was collecting the grains. Although the speed at which the Shadow of the Heavenly Dragon was transporting grains was astonishing, it was still somewhat inadequate compared to the mountainous grain pile.

“If the Ye Family discovers…” Du Sha was worried, but was cut off by Cui Dayou halfway through the sentence.

“If we are discovered, I will go out and negotiate to buy us some time,” Cui Dayou laughed. “It is only a matter of knocking out two stewards, it will not cause much of a disturbance in the Ye family. At most, the attendant here will come to seek justice. Within a maximum of nine hours, Minister Luo will be able to finish collecting these millions of bags of food and grains. At that time, the seniors just need to escort the Minister to leave, no need to worry about

me.”

“I understand.” The warrior, who sat down like a stone Buddha, gave Cui Dayou a profound look and said softly.

Ye Family’s Residence, Da Lin City

The steward of the Ye Family, who had hurried back riding hard, was stopped at the gate. He initially wanted to get angry, but seeing the cold glint in the steward’s eyes, he could only plead softly, “My name is Ye Wu, one of the stewards of the South Warehouse. Please let the steward inform the family head and tell him that I have an urgent matter to see him.”

“Several clan leaders of the alliance are discussing ‘aid’ for the Lingjiang flood with the family head. If there is anything important, you can tell me. If it genuinely is urgent, I will convey the message.

The words from the steward made Ye Wu’s heart skip a beat. It was like a pillow to someone sleepy, the family head had just been considering how to get involved in the Lingjiang situation, and he got a big order from Xiling. It was truly heaven on his side.

Ye Wu was even more respectful. He said to the steward, “The matter involves Xiling City, located in the middle reaches of Lingjiang River. One of my close friends is currently the steward of the prominent Mi Clan in Xiling City. This time he came to Da Lin City to place an order, and the first order alone has six hundred million bags. I’m not certain about the appropriateness of this, so I especially came to ask the clan leader for a decision.”

Thinking that once he clarified his intentions, he would be given due regard, at least enough to make the lofty steward change his expression, Ye Wu had not expected that the steward would just take a big gulp of tea and spit it on the ground.

“Pah! If you need the family head for such petty matters, what use are you stewards?” The steward said expressionlessly, wiping his mouth. “There are more than a thousand stewards in the Ye family. If every one of them needs the family head’s decision every time they receive a large order, the family head wouldn’t have time to do anything else in a day. Go away!”

Ye Wu’s face turned white with shock, and he said repeatedly, “Please discern carefully, steward, this is not a common order, but an order worth more than ten billion gold pieces. Didn’t you say that the family head is currently discussing the Lingjiang issue with several clan leaders?”

“Idiot!” The steward shouted at the steward in front of him. “The family head’s discussions and the orders should never be conflated!”

The strong aura of a Fierce Realm expert burst out, and Ye Wu thumped down to his knees, begging, “Please calm down, steward, please calm down. It was all my slip of the tongue.”

“Hmph.” The steward withdrew his aura, looked at the trembling Ye Wu who had knelt down and said indifferently, “But an order of over ten billion gold pieces is indeed rare, although it is not urgent, it is impressive enough. Wait here, after the clan leaders leave, I will bring you to see the family head. Get

up.”

“Thank you, steward, thank you, steward.” Ye Wu got up excitedly and stood respectfully waiting to enter the clan land.

Originally thinking that he would see the family head shortly, he had been waiting for a whole day. The sun was shining when he came, and now the sky was full of stars and the moon. Ye Wu was becoming anxious, but the steward sat calmly in the gatehouse, drinking tea and eating cakes.

It wasn’t until the next day’s dawn that Ye Wu finally saw the Ye family head, but he didn’t know, the Xiling order he had been longing for was wreaking havoc in the grain silo.

After a relentless nine hours, the grey giant placed ten million bags of grams into the Endless Void Stomach. Nine hundred and ninety-nine Void Stomachs were filled to the brim.

This was the first time since he awakened this power that Tang Luo felt overwhelmed. It was as if there was a stone in his stomach, making it difficult even to breathe.

The two stewards from the Ye family woke up halfway, and when they saw the empty grain silo, they passed out again.

Things had gone far smoother than they imagined. Cui Dayou placed a “cash note” next to the two unconscious stewards and excitedly said to Tang Luo, “Minister, there is no problem now, next is how to escape from this grain silo.” Before he entered Da Lin, Cui Dayou had already hidden the Cloud Piercer Beast and the Explosive Flame Deer in a secret forest. Now it seemed that, even before coming to Da Lin, the steward had thoroughly thought things through. Tang Luo thought to himself.

“If only we could create some chaos,” Cui Dayou said, thinking back to the well-organized grain silo when they first arrived. He said to Du Ting and the others, “Do any of the seniors have some method to create chaos without causing serious damage?”

The moment they heard the word ‘chaos’, the three senior members of the Du family all turned to look at Du Sha. Cui Dayou was left confused, but remembering the file he had seen about Du Sha, Tang Luo laughed, “Mr. Du Sha, creating chaos is your task.”

There wouldn’t be a better person suited to create chaos than a Du Sha, a warrior possessing the Stone Heart Bloodline at the Earth Level seventh rank.

The warrior who sat like a stone Buddha nodded, his body radiating a milky white light. As he sat cross-legged and gently placed his hands on the ground, to Cui Dayou’s astonishment, in the empty grain silo, countless stone animals and sculptures started to rise..
