Chapter 263: Tallying The Spoils Of War

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

An Lin, Da Bai, and Xiao Chou stared at the storage rings in their hands with anxious expressions.

It was like each of them had a few lottery tickets that were guaranteed to win a prize, but they did not know what the prizes would be.

“Who wants to go first?” An Lin looked toward Xiao Chou and Da Bai.

Both of them turned their gazes upon An Lin.

An Lin shrugged. “Alright, I’ll go first then.”!.

He suspended the ten storage rings in the air before him and refined them one by one. He then decided to assess the contents of the storage rings from the eight Hall of Seven Sins’ disciples first, leaving the two best storage rings for last.

He emptied all the contents of the first storage ring.

Clatter…

A mound of stuff piled up into a small mountain before him, causing everyone’s eyes to light up.

There were thirty-five thousand spirit stones, three intermediate rank magic tools, one high-rank magic tool, five spirit medicines, a bunch of spirit pills, and some tool refinement materials.

It was a pleasant surprise to see there was so much stuff in just one storage ring.

The Hall of Seven Sins’ cultivators… they sure were rich!

Immediately after this, An Lin emptied the other seven storage rings to find that their contents were quite similar to that of the first storage ring, with one storage ring being particularly noteworthy as it contained an elementary rank spirit tool, which was quite a pleasant surprise.

After emptying the eight storage rings, it was time for the epic finale, the storage rings of Xu Yongnan and Xu Tong!

An Lin picked out Xu Yongnan’s storage ring first and emptied its contents as well after refining the ring.

Clatter…

Everyone gasped at the mountainous pile of treasures that appeared in front of them.

An Lin laughed. “Capitalism sure is evil! Look at the wealth gap between the leader and the disciples…”

Three hundred and ten thousand spirit stones, two elementary rank spirit tools, one intermediate rank spirit tools, around a dozen spirit pills, and a huge amount of exotic plants and minerals…

Just this one storage ring contained treasures comparable to the other eight storage rings combined…

Xiao Chou and Da Bai all looked on with envy. F*ck, the disparity was simply infuriating!

Next up was Xu Tong’s storage ring, the contents were just as shocking.

Three hundred and fifty thousand spirit stones, two intermediate rank spirit tools, a vast amount of spirit pills, exotic plants, minerals, and even a ninth-grade immortal pill—Azure Yang Pill! An Lin only discovered this after using his Divine Inspection Technique. The pill was an extremely potent regenerative medicine which was able to help its consumer recover from the most grievous injuries as long as they weren’t actually dead.

In this battle, An Lin obtained nine hundred and fifty thousand spirit stones, three elementary rank spirit tools, three intermediate rank spirit tools, a few dozen spirit pills, countless exotic plants, and minerals as well as tool refinement materials, with a ninth-grade immortal pill as the icing on the cake.

An Lin was extremely content and gifted all the impotence pills to Da Bai as a gesture of goodwill.

Da Bai accepted the pills with mixed feelings. On one hand, they were useless to him and quite frankly a bit of an insult, but on the other hand, at least he could sell them for about ten to twenty thousand spirit stones.

Next, Xiao Chou emptied his seven storage rings and tallied a total of over two hundred thousand spirit stones, countless exotic plants, and minerals as well as spirit medicines.

Da Bai also eagerly emptied his storage rings to find close to two hundred thousand spirit stones and a lot of valuable exotic plants and minerals, with a large number of impotence pills to cap things off, making the experience a bittersweet one.

“Our spoils of war have finally soothed our aching hearts.” An Lin looked up into the sky with a satisfied smile.

Da Bai and Xiao Chou nodded in agreement. They too were very happy with the rewards they had reaped.

“Ah, wait, I have a storage ring too!

“I haven’t had a chance to look at the storage ring Big Sister Shen Yin gave me…”

Xu Xiaolan had clearly been inspired by everyone else and stroked the intricate ring on her hand with a dainty smile.

An Lin and the others unanimously raised their hands in protest. “Don’t do it!”

However, their yells came too late.

The storage ring flashed, and all its contents were emptied onto the ground.

Then, there was an earthquake…

Boom!

With their mouths agape, everyone stared at the mountainous pile of treasures in front of them as the ground below them trembled and quaked.

“Holy f*ck… there’s so much!”

An Lin was completely dumbfounded. The treasures laid out in front of everyone was like a cake with defined layers.

The base of the mountain was built up by spirit stones, of which there appeared to be a few million; the middle layer was filled with all type of tool refinement materials, all of which emitted powerful energy, clearly indicating that these were all materials of a very high caliber; near the tip of the mountain, there was a huge mound of rare medicines, spirit fruits, and immortal fruits; at the very tip of the mountain lay countless spirit pills and immortal pills, as well as a bunch of weapons… The whole “cake” glistened with a dazzling light under the sun, presenting a marvelous spectacle to behold.

Xu Xiaolan stuck out her tongue sheepishly. “There’s a little more than I expected. Can you guys help me tally it all…”

An Lin’s lips twitched with heartache. Tallying someone else’s wealth was not a good feeling, especially when there was so much. It was bound to be an exhausting and saddening task…

There would be no heartache if there was no comparison. Da Bai and Xiao Chou had just rediscovered a shred of consolation and dignity, but all of it was instantly squashed into pulp under the mountain of treasures before them, giving them a sense of asphyxiation.

Xu Xiaolan was the biggest winner after all!

The spirit stones were easy to tally, they were all the same anyway, so one could get a rough estimate of their quantity through the use of divine sense.

Hmm… There are 5.7 million spirit stones…

An Lin didn’t know how he was going to tally the tool refinement materials and exotic medicines. He tried using the Divine Inspection Technique, but the resulting information was difficult to interpret. These were all ancient treasures with indeterminate values. In the end, he just decided to calculate them by mass; there was a total of about two hundred and eighty thousand kilograms there…

There were thirty-eight spirit fruits, ten immortal fruits, two hundred and twenty spirit pills, seven immortal pills, thirty-nine spirit tools, and one immortal tool…

The immortal tool was especially worthy of note. It was named Divine Flame Bead and appeared to be an artifact left behind by Dongfang Ming…

After tallying up these treasures, An Lin felt like his heart was about to give out.

He had thought that his wealth had expanded alarmingly in a short span of time, but Xu Xiaolan absolutely put him to shame…

An Lin couldn’t help but glance at her to find that she seemed to be very happy, with an alluring smile on her face that made her appear particularly beautiful. She probably knew that she was filthy rich too…

If anyone was to marry her, they could probably live off her wealth for many lifetimes.

Xu Xiaolan clapped her hands together as she looked at the mountain of treasures before her. “Alright, now it’s time to split this stuff!”

An Lin, Da Bai, and Xiao Chou all looked at her with confusion. “What?”

“Without your help, I wouldn’t have been able to receive the inheritance nor these treasures.”

“Hence, it’s time for me to give something back to you guys!” Xu Xiaolan wore a genuine smile on her face, but her expression was very determined as if she had made up her mind long ago.

An Lin, Da Bai, and Xiao Chou all trembled at her words. They didn’t expect Xu Xiaolan to make such a kind gesture.

She cast her gaze on the pile of spirit stones first and stroked her chin in thought. “Hmm… I don’t have a desperate need for spirit stones. An Lin, you still owe Chang’e a debt, so you can have all the spirit stone stones.”

Xu Xiaolan’s words immediately had An Lin and the others rooted to the spot in shock.

“You… you’re giving me all of it? You’re not joking, are you?” Even though An Lin had thick skin, a gift of such preposterous magnitude was something that he struggled to comprehend.

This wasn’t just a few hundred or a few thousand; this was 5.7 million spirit stones! This was a vast amount of money comparable to the wealth of a large Immortal Sect and Xu Xiaolan was giving it to him just like that?

“No… I can’t take so much…” An Lin shook his head before Xu Xiaolan had a chance to reply. The treasures in the storage ring were all left by Shen Yin for Xu Xiaolan. Even if he did have thick skin, he couldn’t accept all of the spirit stones.

Xu Xiaolan’s face fell slightly. “Just take it, I don’t want you to owe Chang’e a debt for so long. I don’t have a need for them anyway, so what’s wrong with giving them to you so you can repay your debt? If you refuse to accept the spirit stones, then you and I are no longer friends.”

An Lin was startled by her words and immediately agreed. “Fine! I’ll take it!”

He stowed the 5.7 million spirit stones into his storage, fighting back tears all the while. How blessed was he to have such a good friend…

With the addition of Xu Xiaolan’s spirit stones, he had a rough total of fourteen million spirit stones in his storage ring, which should be enough to repay the debt he owed to Chang’e.

Xu Xiaolan’s expression lightened a little, and she turned her gaze to Da Bai.

“Da Bai, you have the Heavenly Wolf bloodline with you and mainly cultivate in the Dao of wind, so I’m giving you these two Wind Pupil immortal fruits. On top of that, this Divine Vitality Condensing immortal pill will not only increase the size of your sea of vital energy, it can also assist you in breaking through to Spirit Nurturing Final Stage, so I’ll give this to you as well.” Xu Xiaolan gifted the most valuable spirit fruits and immortal pill from her collection to Da Bai without any hesitation.

Da Bai was reduced to tears by her kindness and immediately expressed his wish to stay by Xu Xiaolan’s side. In other words, he wanted to betray An Lin and become Xu Xiaolan’s beast pet! After all, all An Lin gave him were impotence pills, whereas Xu Xiaolan only gave him the very best…

However, this was obviously impossible as divorces could only take effect with an agreement from both sides. Hence, Da Bai received another beating from An Lin.

Lastly, it was Xiao Chou’s turn.

Xu Xiaolan looked at Xiao Chou in deep thought. She was at a loss and didn’t know what to give him…

Xiao Chou was already at Half-Step Soul Formation Stage and specialized in the Dao of fire. There didn’t appear to be any immortal pills or immortal fruits that would be suitable for him. Perhaps she should give him the Divine Flame Bead?

Xu Xiaolan brought out the Divine Flame Bead, but to her surprise, Xiao Chou refused to accept it no matter what.

The Divine Flame Bead was the most valuable item in the storage ring, he simply didn’t have it in him to accept such a valuable gift!

Xu Xiaolan stowed the Divine Flame Bead back into the storage and continued to grapple with her dilemma..
