C595 Heavenly Decree List
Xue Youyan was the husband of Princess Chen Ke from the current Nebula Royal Family.
Hsi Mingshi, Artifact Forging Aristocratic Family's fifth ranking, true Immortal.
The two of them chatted merrily in the Xi Family Division.
"Did something happen?" Hsi Mingshi asked.
Xue Youyan laughed, "Isn't it all for the Qipan Mountain?"
Hsi Mingshi's eyes flashed, "The position of Xi Family Branch Head, was previously held by Fifth Grade Half-immortal's disciples. This time, our clan sent me to be Wuzi County's Head Manager, I was very surprised at first, but after I found out, Rann Family took the initiative to give us the Qipan Mountain's mineral resources. It's just that I don't know if saying that coming to Wuzi County has something to do with Qipan Mountain? "
Hsi Mingshi was curious. This was a matter of Artifact Forging Aristocratic Family. Xue Youyan saying such words in her royal capacity made Hsi Mingshi puzzled.
Xue Youyan said, "The Qipan Mountain mine's resources originally belonged to the Rann Family. There was a reason why some things happened and the Rann Family voluntarily gave the Qipan Mountain away to the Xi Family."
"What reason?" The main clan of Xi Family didn't give him these, they only asked him to be the main manager of the Xi Family division and be in charge of the Qipan Mountain transfer matters.
Xue Youyan did not say anything.
"All of you can leave now." Hsi Mingshi let the surrounding guards leave. Soon, only Xue Youyan and Hsi Mingshi were left in the hall.
"Someone has placed a bounty on the Heavenly Decree List, allowing Xi Family to acquire the Qipan Mountain's hidden resources." Xue Youyan spoke the truth.
Someone? Who was that person? Why did he need to send out Heavenly Decree List s? And why did he let Xi Family obtain the resources of the Qipan Mountain?
In Hsi Mingshi's eyes.
It was like a thunderbolt in a clear sky.
"Heavenly Decree List!"
"Someone is actually offering a bounty on the Heavenly Decree List. What treasure is this Qipan Mountain that's actually worth it?"
Hsi Mingshi was shocked. He sat on the chair and his emotions were oppressed to the point of being terrifying. The hand holding the teacup slightly trembled. It was obvious how complicated his mood was right now.
Hsi Mingshi originally thought that he had only become a steward because his position of Branch of Ran Family was overdone and he had replaced the position of a steward who had died earlier. But he didn't expect that there was actually such a huge secret hidden within.
Heavenly Decree List had existed since the birth of the Nebula Dynasty.
In the beginning, Heavenly Decree List were controlled by the royal family, but on the surface, some things that could not be done, the royal family placed a bounty on them. For example, a family that had offended the royal family, once they received the bounty of the Heavenly Decree List, they would be attacked by a group of people. On one hand, this was the prestige of the royal family, on the other hand, many families, in order to curry favor with the royal family, had no choice but to do so.
To anger anyone, you must not provoke the Imperial Family. This is a rule that many Powerful Family and Honourable Clan s follow in secret.
Later on, as time passed, perhaps the royal family felt that the existence of Heavenly Decree List was not as meaningful as before, and allowed some families to enter the list of Heavenly Decree List, possessing the qualifications to issue bounties.
By now, there were a total of 350 clans on the leaderboard, a total of seventeen special forces, and a total of nine Celestial Immortals.
A so-called honorary True Immortal was a True Immortal who had rendered meritorious services for the Nebula Royal Family, or who had received rewards from the Nebula Royal Family.
If the True Immortals on the rankings could be considered a power, then adding the Nebula Royal Family, there would be a total of 377 powers on the leaderboard.
Xi Family and Rann Family were both on the Heavenly Decree List's list and could be used to issue Heavenly Decree List bounties.
Hsi Mingshi couldn't understand, who was behind the scenes helping the Xi Family?
Or perhaps …
it was not helping Xi Family, but rather, borrowing Xi Family to do something.
Hsi Mingshi was puzzled.
It was no wonder that Rann Family would hand over the resources stored within the Qipan Mountain. It was probably because they were intimidated by the Heavenly Decree List and had obtained certain benefits at the same time. Otherwise, if Rann Family handed over their resources, if Rann Family reported this matter to the imperial family, the power behind the bounty would instead be surrounded and annihilated by the imperial family.
Xue Youyan said, "You've thought it through?"
Hsi Mingshi nodded, "I will do a good job in handing over the Qipan Mountain Stones."
Xue You Yan was here to supervise this matter. This meant that the powers behind the bounty might also be involved by the royal family.
The matter was becoming more and more mysterious.
Hsi Mingshi didn't say anything else.
Xue Youyan revealed a smile, "Honored official, you can go and complete the transfer of Qipan Mountain now."
"Alright, follow me."
Finished speaking, Hsi Mingshi brought the Xi Family disciple and Xue Youyan with him as they rushed towards the Qipan Mountain.
He was currently in the Qipan Mountain.
The Rann Family disciples were at the entrance of Little Pan Mountain. Their expressions were resolute, incomparably resolute, as if they were determined to face death.
Ran Yingloong, Ran Feng, and Gui Shufeng were waiting for him.
Zhang Haorann was beside him.
"I believe that soon, the people from Xi Family will come and take back their Qipan Mountain. No matter what, we have to defend the mines that belong to Rann Family." Ran Yingloong said in a deep voice.
All the disciples responded in unison.
Ran Yingloong was satisfied, most of these Branch of Ran Family disciples were from outside the First Grade Half-immortal. At this moment of crisis, these people did not leave, but instead had a imposing manner that shot into the sky like a rainbow.
At this moment, Ran Feng's Shadow Recording Stone lit up.
"Huh?" Ran Feng was stunned, he was surprised by the name that was displayed on the Shadow Recording Stone.
"What's wrong?" Zhang Haorann looked over.
"Master Zhang, there are three people bound to my Shadow Recording Stone, one of them is my childhood friend, he is in charge of gathering information at Native Ran Family's investigation division, and the information on the Shadow Recording Stone was sent by him." Ran Feng said.
"Let's see what it is." Zhang Haorann said casually.
Ran Feng nodded.
On the Shadow Recording Stone, an image appeared. On the Native Ran Family, a young Rann Family disciple carefully held onto the Shadow Recording Stone and arrived at a remote area.
The Rann Family disciple opened his mouth and said:
"The Native Ran Family Investigation Division has received news that someone is placing a bounty on the Heavenly Decree List, wanting it to occupy the Qipan Mountain's mineral resources. As a result of our Native Ran Family, we have no choice but to give up our Qipan Mountain and give our Qipan Mountain to Xi Family. Right now, ordinary True Immortal Hsi Mingshi has gone to the Xi Family branch and become the manager of our branch.
The faces of the Rann Family s protecting the Qipan Mountain were all filled with shock. They had never thought that the Qipan Mountain resources behind them would actually be related to the Heavenly Decree List.
"I've heard of the existence of Heavenly Decree List but I've never seen such a bounty before. I thought that someone was exaggerating on purpose."
"So the Heavenly Decree List was real."
"Just which power has set their eyes on Qipan Mountain? Why are they being taken over by the Xi Family? "
When the relationship between the Qipan Mountain and the Heavenly Decree List, the hearts of these Rann Family disciples that were surging with passion, gradually cooled down.
Ran Yingloong's face was slightly pale, obviously he did not accept the Heavenly Decree List's Qipan Mountain reward.
"In the past, Heavenly Decree List s were exclusive to the imperial family, but later on, many powers joined the Heavenly Decree List s list, and they could also put up bounties. Once a bounty was placed, there would definitely be other powers who would complete the mission for the sake of the bounty at all costs, is Qipan Mountain that really that important?"
Ran Yingloong's entire body was ice-cold, why did Native Ran Family give up on Qipan Mountain? It turned out that Qipan Mountain had a bounty on them by the Heavenly Decree List, if Rann Family stubbornly protected Qipan Mountain, he would definitely be surrounded and annihilated by other forces, so Native Ran Family took a step back into the air.
The hearts of some of the Rann Family disciples began to loosen.
"Manager, I have seniors and juniors, I worked as an ironworker for twenty years in Branch of Ran Family, it's my honor to serve you, but now …"
A Rann Family disciple hesitated, not daring to look at Ran Yingloong, and even more so at Zhang Haorann.
"Sorry Head Supervisor, I have to go. I really can't protect this Qipan Mountain."
Some disciples ran away.
It was like a torch.
One by one, the disciples turned and ran.
They were First Grade Half-immortal to begin with, so when it came to matters involving Heavenly Decree List, what was the difference between their protecting Qipan Mountain and being like a praying mantis trying to stop a chariot?
When Zhang Haorann saw this scene, he sighed: "The reason the Dapan Mountain in the Qipan Mountain is protected by an intermediate Magical Formation is because there are Natural Melting Furnace in the Dapan Mountain."
Natural Melting Furnace!
Hearing this news, the Rann Family disciples ran even faster.
The seven great Artifact Forging Aristocratic Family occupied the seven Natural Melting Furnace s of the Nebula Continent, and they relied on the Natural Melting Furnace s to carry out large-scale artifact forging.
Right now, there was a Natural Melting Furnace inside the Qipan Mountain, if anyone could occupy it, they could use it as a new Artifact Forging Aristocratic Family!
This was already something that the Rann Family disciples did not dare to imagine, and it made them even more determined to escape.
Zhang Haorann smiled disdainfully, as if he had already guessed the actions of these people. He didn't say anything as he watched them escape.
Very quickly, only a few people remained within the Qipan Mountain.
Ran Yingloong, Ran Feng, Gui Shufeng.
As for the other three Rann Family disciples, their wills were firm, and they did not run away like the others.
Zhang Haorann nodded. The ambition of these people was indeed out of the ordinary.
"Ran Feng, what is the reward for the Heavenly Decree List?" Zhang Haorann asked.
"Let me ask." Ran Feng obtained the information through the Shadow Recording Stone and Native Ran Family scouting division.
He quickly obtained an answer.
"The reward is astonishing." Ran Feng's tone was complicated, "Whoever makes a move to have Rann Family give up its resources will become the guest of honor for the five great sects, enjoying the rights to travel within the five great provinces, and will also be honored as an esteemed guest of the imperial family."
Master Zhang, the distinguished guests of the five great sects that I mentioned earlier, as well as the distinguished guests of the royal family, these are all the envy of Half Immortals and True Immortals because they represent status. To be able to obtain these honors, even if the Half Immortals meet true Immortals, their imposing manner will not lose out to them.
The more Ran Feng spoke, the softer his voice became. It was hard to imagine which power behind the scenes had released such a shocking reward.
Out of the tens of billions of people in the Nebula Continent, only the strong were insufficient to stand out from the crowd.
One still had to have status!1
"Oh." Zhang Haorann nodded. "Understood."
"Master Zhang, in the past few days, you have helped us so much, but those fleeing Rann Family disciples have disappointed you. How about you just leave, don't drag us into this, my clan has our own rules, once we discover the Natural Melting Furnace, my clan will protect you with my life. Since my clan is so useless, I must stand out and protect you."
At this point, Ran Yingloong was in high spirits and was not afraid at all. At this point, Ran Yingloong did not run away but stayed there unflinchingly.
Zhang Haorann pointed to the front, but did not say whether he would leave or not. He just smiled and said:
"I'll help you deal with those people first."
Ran Yingloong and the others looked over.
Their gazes narrowed.
Sure enough, there were people rushing over. They gathered their auras and came with ill intentions.
