Chapter 2358: Carl’s Beautiful Dream

Dadun felt very good, confidently believing that yesterday’s arrangements would definitely succeed.

As long as today passes, Source Stone City and the nearby mines will all belong to him.

The Xue Keke Clan Leader’s throne will also belong to him.

Last night, he and Carl held a celebration banquet to celebrate his imminent status as the master of Source Stone City.

“Excuse me, is this where Master Carl and Master Dadun reside?”

A man’s voice came from outside the courtyard.

Dadun, who had just drunk a sobering soup, raised his eyebrows. They had drunk too much last night, which resulted in him still feeling a bit tired.

With a simple stretch, Dadun waved his hand, and two slaves opened the courtyard door.

Feng Shendao and several guards from the Feng Family walked in from outside.

Seeing that it was Feng Shendao, Dadun’s eyes narrowed. His gaze swept over Feng Shendao’s guards, and then he smiled and stood up: “Isn’t this the Family Head of Feng? What brings you here so early?”

“Hahaha, Master Dadun, the finals of the Immortal Craftsmen competition are being held at the Central Trading Market today. I came specifically to invite you and Master Carl.”

Feng Shendao made a respectful gesture that Source Stone City would have for all Immortal Craftsmen.

Dadun flashed away: “Oh, I’m not worthy. You are the Family Head of the Feng Family and an Immortal Craftsman yourself. How dare I accept such respect? Please, Family Head Feng, have a seat. Someone, serve tea. I’ll tidy up a bit and come right back.”

Seeing Dadun leave, killing intent flashed in Feng Shendao’s eyes. He naturally knew that Dadun was going to give instructions to his subordinates.

After all, the Immortal Craftsmen competition could not be directly commanded.

But Feng Shendao was unaware that Dadun had a great talent in forging, and he felt that forging was sacred.

Massacre was a way to conquer Source Stone City, and winning the Immortal Craftsmen competition was the same.

Therefore, his purpose this time was simple, not only to win the competition but also to kill everyone in Source Stone City.

According to Dadun: “Let those lowlifes inside Source Stone City die with conviction.”

“Family Head Feng personally came to invite us. It really surprises me a bit. But it’s fine. It also means he takes us very seriously and hasn’t considered us as enemies of Source Stone City.”

Dadun looked at the people beside him and then spoke.

These Xue Keke Clan elites all nodded. They had also drunk a lot yesterday, but for their strength, drunkenness was actually an enjoyment.

After all, if they use their strength, getting drunk is quite difficult.

“Young master, rest assured, we’re waiting for your return before we act. We won’t move hastily.”

The one-eyed man stood up, grinned, and said.

Dadun nodded, not because he didn’t trust the one-eyed man but because he felt slaughter disrupted forging, a profane act.

Moreover, if he wasn’t personally directing, his prestige within the family would be greatly reduced.

The Clan Leader would surely reward the one-eyed men group. Rewards falling on Dadun would be far less.

This battle achievement was a rare opportunity for Dadun.

“Yes, although the battle achievements won’t heavily favor you, I won’t treat you unfairly. Once I become the Clan Leader of the Xue Keke Clan, you will be the most powerful Elders under my command.”

Dadun’s lips curled slightly, seemingly thinking of himself ascending to the Clan Leader’s throne.

Surrounding Xue Keke Clan powerhouses all nodded, they were all from Dadun’s side.

Shared glory and shared defeat, they understood.

Although people of the Blood Ancestor Clan love luxury, they also love slaughter.

After all, individuals from the Blood Ancestor Clan need Blood Food to become stronger.

Massacre represents Blood Food, represents Tribute to the Blood Ancestor, represents becoming stronger.

They aren’t afraid of Dadun not fulfilling his promise.

Because each has an Elder backing them, those Elders would demand justice for them.

Feng Shendao led Dadun, Carl, and Sedno to the Central Trading Market, crowded with people.

Almost everyone in Source Stone City who was idle gathered here.

And families like Feng and Jin seemed to have mobilized a large number of guards to cope with the audience.

Dadun was not suspicious. After all, with so many people, someone needs to maintain order; it’s all normal in his view.

But Carl raised his eyebrows, coughed, and looked at Feng Shendao beside him: “Family Head Feng, why are there so many private soldiers today?”

“Master Carl, you may not know, today’s final artifact refining is the most difficult and the most valuable in the first Immortal Craftsmen competition, because you five masters who are in the top five will use Treasure Ore to refine Treasure within the Immortal Artifacts.”

Feng Shendao’s voice was full of pride.

Carl and Dadun exchanged glances; their eyes were bright.

“Treasure Ore? Is this true? Surely Family Head Feng revealed his family treasures?”

Carl swallowed.

In truth, Dadun had already dispatched troops, about to act inside Source Stone City. Everything in the city will belong to Dadun.

And at this time, Feng Family intended to use Treasure Ore for forging, implying these ores and the crafted Treasures would become Dadun’s Treasures.

Dadun himself surely couldn’t use all the ores; refining Treasure Ore is time-consuming and exhausting, plus Dadun’s forging skills not as strong as his own.

Carl could even foresee benefiting from these ores, becoming elevated even if his power wasn’t formidable.

But by crafting Treasures from so much ore, his family would grant him an Elder position.

Feng Shendao’s lips curled into a bitter smile; Dadun and Carl indeed showed just as Tang Ming expected, revealing this excited expression.

“To be frank with you both, this time the Treasure Ore isn’t solely provided by my family. Treasure Ore is precious; mostly mine is used for sale, inventory isn’t abundant. This time, several families from Source Stone City, along with City Lord Tang Ming, contributed. So, I ask both masters not to waste the powerful force of the Treasure Ore.”

Feng Shendao mentioned this point with a bit of pain. Though those families also contributed ore.

But as the host, Feng Family provided the most, simply hoping to vanquish these Blood Ancestor Divine Sect members without bloodshed this time.
