Chapter 1074: Adding Insult to Injury
The massacre began and ended in the time it takes to drink a cup of tea.
The miners, overseers, and management of the Heavenly Origin Tribe numbered between seven hundred and eight hundred. However, in the end, fewer than a hundred escaped alive.
The scent of blood wafted through the air with the wind. Many of the slain left no remains, reduced directly to dust.
"Leader, some members of the Heavenly Origin Tribe have escaped. Shall we pursue them?" the Black Water Tribe elder, Hu De, approached Xiao Tian.
This Hu De, with the realm of a Nine-star Void God, was also an elder of the Black Water Tribe and extremely loyal to Xiao Tian.
"There’s no need to chase them, they’re just small fry, insignificant whether they’re killed or not. Elder Hu De, order someone to clean up the battlefield and then start mining," Xiao Tian said with a wave of his hand.
"Yes!" Hu De responded and left.
After the battlefield was cleaned, the miners of the Black Water Tribe began to wield their tools and work. Meanwhile, Leader Xiao Tian and Think Tank Chang Yan probed the scale of the Divine Crystal Vein.
"Think Tank, this is indeed a large-scale Divine Crystal Vein as you mentioned. The reserves here are at least ten billion Divine Crystals. With a vein covering such a large area, if the depth reaches ten thousand meters, twenty billion Divine Crystals could be extracted," Xiao Tian said spiritedly.
If the reserves truly reached twenty billion Divine Crystals, even if he gave Yin Hua fifty percent, his Black Water Tribe could still acquire ten billion Divine Crystals.
If he hadn’t seized this vein, although he could have gotten forty percent from the Heavenly Origin Tribe, who knows if the Heavenly Origin Tribe would secretly keep some of it to themselves? This large-scale vein isn’t like ordinary ones, where small and medium veins can be easily inspected for total reserves, but large ones are not so simple.
Moreover, giving such wealth to Yin Hua would naturally strengthen their relationship in the future. Hence, offending someone like Jing Yan would be of no consequence?
