Chapter 760: Chapter 3 My Wife is Sky Pride_1

…

Peace River, is one of the two most important rivers in Great Qian Land.

Its source is on the Western Sea Plateau. It passes through the Western Sea and the Northern Ridge Provinces, where several tributaries merge into it. Finally, it flows into the sea from Longzuo County after covering tens of thousands of miles.

As the dominant force of Peace River, the Jiaolong Gang has a vast sphere of influence. A nearly ten-thousand-mile-long stretch of the river, from Northern Ridge to the estuary, which is the middle and lower reaches of Peace River, all fall within the Jiaolong Gang’s territory.

To facilitate management, the Jiaolong Gang has set up a subrudder every thousand miles, each overseen by a Tianren Realm Cultivator.

Together with the Second Master “Crimson Jade Jiao” Jiang Yusong, Third Master “Slaughter Spirit Hand” Du TianGang, adopted son “One-Eyed Jiao” Zhao Wu Qing, who are always with Long Wuji, the whole Jiaolong Gang has over fifteen Tianren Realm powerhouses.

Among them, there are three or four masters in the advanced stage of Tianren Realm. Their strength is undeniably formidable.

The Lingbei Xianyu Subrudder in the midstream of Peace River.

This subrudder is located in Xianyu Ridge, the northernmost point of Northern Ridge Province. The ridge is backed by mountains and faces the river, and is just across the river from the capital of Great Qian Land. It is the closest place along the entire Peace River to the capital.

There is a sizable shipyard located by the river, where the Xianyu Subrudder is located.

In the shipyard, a man in white is leisurely discarding the froth from his cup of tea.

There is a chessboard crafted from spirit jade on a tea table in front of him. The chessboard is crisscrossed with white and black pieces, showing that the game has been going on for some time.

Across the chessboard, Ji Chen, the rudder owner of Xianyu Subrudder, who’s known as “Flying Sky Sculpture”, is holding a black piece and hesitating.

After a while, he put the piece down with a troubled look.

The man in white didn’t even lift his eyelids, he raised his fingertip and a white chess piece flew out of the basket and landed on the chessboard.

After focusing on the move, Ji Chen immediately broke into a cold sweat.

“You lost.”

The man in white had a sip of his tea and said calmly.

“Yes, yes, yes. I lost.”

Ji Chen wiped the sweat from his forehead. He pulled a face and pulled out a note from the gold tickets in front of him and put it in front of the man in white.

It’s unclear how long they have been playing, but Ji Chen’s gold tickets have dwindled to just a few, while there is a thick stack in front of the man in white. It’s easy to imagine how badly Ji Chen has lost.

Although the Jiaolong Gang has power comparable to that of a generic Purple Abode Prominent Family, Ji Chen is just a Tianren Realm Cultivator who only manages one of the ten subrudders of the Jiaolong Gang. The profit he makes in ordinary days is just enough for his own cultivation, he doesn’t have much savings.

Now, the pile on the table is almost all he has. If he loses any more, he will be on the brink of bankruptcy.

But there wasn’t an ounce of sympathy in the man in white.

He gestured casually, and the chess pieces on the board returned to their basket.

“Next round.”

“Another round?”

Ji Chen was already struggling, upon hearing this, he almost burst into tears.

He quickly clutched his golden tickets and pleaded, “Mr. Gong Yang Ce, playing against me is pointless even if you win. Why don’t we take a break? Or, once our Second Master arrives, you can play with him? He’s much better at chess than I am.”

As it turns out, this man in white is the Great Heavenly Proud from the Sacred Land, Gong Yang Ce.

“No need. Changing the person wouldn’t make much difference.” Gong Yang Ce looked at Ji Chen without concern, “make your move.”

With no other choice, Ji Chen picked up a black piece and looked at it with a distraught expression.

He had the feeling that his gold tickets would be cleaned out today.

Just then.

Outside the shipyard, a domineering and robust voice rang out, “Hahaha~ Mr. Gong Yang Ce, I am but an elderly person who couldn’t meet you far away. Apologies for the discourtesy.”

Along with it came an overwhelming forceful aura, surging like a tide, brimming with an indescribable sense of grandeur and dominance.

Ji Chen paused his move and looked outside quickly. He saw a brilliant glow enveloping a powerful aura hurtling towards them from the horizon. In an instant, it reached the entrance of the shipyard.

Soon, the glow dissipated, revealing a figure who strode into the shipyard like a dragon or a tiger.

It was a middle-aged man dressed casually in a white robe and knee-length pants. He had stubble on his chin and didn’t show the dignity expected of a powerful figure from the Purple Abode Realm. Instead, he exuded a strong wild air.

However, the overwhelming aura that still lingered around him clearly demonstrated his strength and majesty.

The man who had arrived was the boss of the Jiaolong Gang, Long Wuji.

“Boss, you’re finally here.”

Ji Chen sighed with relief like he’d been pardoned. He quickly put down his chess piece and went to greet him, respectfully offering his chair to Long Wuji.

Meanwhile, Gong Yang Ce also stood up, raised his hand and offered a courteous greeting, “Dragon Master.”

“Mr. Gong Yang Ce, you’re too kind.”

Long Wuji raised his hand in reciprocation. They both took their seats again after exchanging greetings.

Despite the difference in status, Long Wuji gave Gong Yang Ce some respect. As the Great Heavenly Proud of the Sacred Land, who would likely become a Divine Power Territory powerhouse in the future, Gong Yang Ce deserved it. Even though Long Wuji remained laid-back, his tone was unusually courteous.

After exchanging a few pleasantries, Long Wuji spoke about the main agenda, “Mr. Gong Yang Ce, someone of your stature must be busy with important matters, why would you bother with an old man like me? And sending someone specifically to invite me to meet?”
