# Chapter 2163: Getting Rich?
Jiang Chacha's eyes sparkled brightly. Had they finally arrived?
The two emerged from the Styx River, and what appeared before Jiangnan was none other than Mingzhu Xinggang!
And Jiangnan finally understood why it was called that.
What lay before him was a convergence of dozens of river channels. The Stygian waters were calm and tranquil, not turbulent at all!
The river's surface stretched several light-years across. Above it, a moon-white planet floated serenely, emitting a cool, clear glow!
Around its orbital path floated massive amounts of stardust and ice crystals!
Like a giant clam shell protecting the moon-white planet within!
It resembled a pearl nestled inside its shell!
Even Jiangnan, who had seen many grand sights, couldn't help but gasp in awe when he saw Mingzhu Xinggang!
The Starry Sky was vast beyond imagination, and wonders never ceased!
Mingzhu Xinggang was located at a crucial transportation hub, making it an extremely important resource distribution center for the Netherworld Race!
Not only did it store Stygian Crystals transported from Minghe Death Prison, but nearby life planets belonging to the Netherworld Race also sent their Stygian Crystals here for strategic reserves before redistribution!
The Stygian River Star Domain was so vast—how could they rely solely on prisoners to harvest it all?
The Netherworld Race itself had professions like Styx River Crystal Divers!
Jiangnan cackled with delight. This was perfect, wasn't it?
Ye Hua: "My Lord! Shall we go notify Mingzhu Xinggang immediately? Have them prepare!"
Jiang Chacha nodded but was about to speak when he suddenly spat out a large mouthful of black blood. He pulled a dull sack from behind his back and wiped the blood from his lips.
(|||≥3≤) "Puhwa... Ye... Ye Hua!"
Ye Hua's heart jumped into his throat. Just how badly injured was Bing Chacha?
(•́﹏•̀٥) "Hmm? What is it, My Lord? Speak! I'm listening..."
The moment he responded, the logo on the dull sack lit up!
Jiang Chacha exploded into action. While Ye Hua leaned in, he opened the mouth of the dull sack and slipped it over Ye Hua's head!
With a downward pull, he stuffed Ye Hua entirely into the sack. The opening tightened automatically!
Ye Hua's vision went black. What was going on? Where was he?
He had been stuffed into a sack by Bing Chacha?
Then he heard Jiangnan's sinister laughter:
(˵ಡಡ) "Thank you for bringing me here. Just stay put in there for a while!"
Ye Hua: !!!
Damn it! That was Jiangnan's voice? Not Bing Chacha?
He had brought Jiangnan to Mingzhu Xinggang? Hiss~
So this was Jiangnan? Then who was in Minghe Death Prison?
And how did he know the Netherworld's Eight Techniques?
In that moment, Ye Hua's heart and body turned ice-cold. He had been completely and thoroughly duped!
[Ye Hua's Resentment Value +1009!]
[Ye Hua's...]
(ꐦ°᷄益°᷅) "Just a broken sack? You think that can trap me? I can blow up planets!"
"Instant Step! Nail Punch! Elbow Cannon! Aaaaahh—let me out!"
"Jiangnan! I'll ~%?…;#*'!"
Ye Hua struggled frantically inside the sack, but no matter what he did, he couldn't escape!
The dull sack could even hold a Bose Body—what was a mere Netherworld Race member in comparison?
Jiangnan's eyes widened as he punched the sack twice!
(ꐦ°᷄д°᷅)و "Behave yourself! A prisoner should have some self-awareness! I'm a vicious criminal here! Be careful or I'll kill you!"
As he spoke, he transformed into Ye Hua's appearance, hoisted the sack over his shoulder, stepped ashore, and landed on the Starry Sky Dock of Mingzhu Xinggang!
Bug Right Hand exclaimed in surprise: "Wh-what kind of sack is this? It captured a Netherworld member just like that? He can't escape?"
Jiang Huazi grinned slyly: "You wouldn't know about this! It can catch not just Netherworld members—it can even catch you! Want to experience it later?"
(꒪ั◊꒪ั*) "Ohohoho~"
Jiang Huazi gritted his teeth. When she couldn't argue, she pinched! Bah!
Climbing onto the Starry Sky Dock, Jiang Huazi didn't act immediately. Instead, he crouched down and pulled out the Ox Horse Pen to draw!
Mingzhu Xinggang, as an important resource distribution center for the Netherworld Race, had decent defensive forces!
And since Netherworld members could all use mental power, with so many eyes around, it wouldn't be easy to act!
Sure enough, a squad of Netherworld warriors quickly spotted Jiang Huazi crouching suspiciously on the dock!
(ꐦÒ益Ó)☛ "Hey! You with the sack on your back! What are you doing? Who allowed you here? Show me your identification!"
Just then, Jiang Huazi's pen tip touched the ground, and a treasure chest he had drawn instantly materialized!
Jiang Huazi scooped it up, hugging it tightly to his chest!
He turned and stumbled forward, coughing blood as he ran!
(#ᵒ̶̶̷̀ཀ˂̶́) "Identification, my ass! The situation's already critical, and you're asking for identification?"
The squad leader's eyes bulged:
゙=͟͟͞͞(Ŏ口Ŏ‧̣̥̇) "Holy crap? Brother Huazi? Aren't you supposed to be at Minghe Death Prison with Lord Bing Chacha, skimming off the top and living it up?"
"Why did you come personally? Hiss—those injuries?"
Jiang Huazi chuckled inwardly. Familiar face? That made things easier!
He wiped blood messily across his face: "Skimming off the top, my ass! I nearly lost my life!"
"I barely escaped to get here! Hurry! Notify the brothers at Mingzhu Xinggang—go support Minghe Death Prison!"
"That Bloody Miracle Yakeli has escaped! He's running rampant in the prison, killing everyone! No one can stop him! Lord Bing Chacha and Lord Jiulan are nearly done for! I don't even know if they're alive or dead!"
"We absolutely can't let Yakeli keep running wild! If he gets out, the reputation of our Netherworld Race and Minghe Death Prison will be destroyed! Go support him immediately! Send as many people as possible!"
As he spoke, Jiang Huazi used Instant Step, staggering deeper into Mingzhu Xinggang!
The Netherworld warrior squad was stunned. Minghe Death Prison was in chaos? Yakeli had escaped?
Both deputy wardens couldn't hold him? The situation was that serious?
Jiang Huazi turned back and glared:
レ(⚆益⚆;)ヘ "What are you standing around for? Move! Are you waiting until everyone's dead to go support?"
"Every second you delay could mean more brothers dying!"
Inside the dull sack, Ye Hua struggled wildly, thrashing his limbs and shouting at the top of his lungs!
٩(๑థ口థ)۶ "Rambo! Is that you? Don't trust him! He's a big liar! That's not me! I'm in the sack! Come save me!"
"Don't go to Minghe Death Prison! If you go, you'll fall right into his trap!"
Ye Hua's voice was nearly hoarse from shouting, but not a single sound escaped!
Jiangnan had tricked him into bringing him to Mingzhu Xinggang—his goal was painfully obvious!
He was after the Stygian Crystals!
If all the guards here ran off to support Minghe Death Prison, Jiangnan could do whatever he wanted here!
When Rambo heard this, he immediately recognized the urgency. Although he was very curious about the writhing sack Jiang Huazi was carrying, he assumed it contained some important prisoner and didn't press further!
"Brothers! Move out quickly! Sound the highest alert at Mingzhu Xinggang!"
"Notify the Dock Master! Send the Netherworld Legion stationed here to support and suppress!"
Under Rambo's orders, the squad immediately jumped into the river and swam at top speed toward the Minghe Death Star!
Meanwhile, alarms blared across Mingzhu Xinggang as wave after wave of Netherworld Legions and garrison troops leaped into the river!
Heading to support!
The entire Mingzhu Xinggang sprang into action. Jiang Huazi, clutching his treasure chest, used Instant Step to charge forward!
Like a salmon swimming upstream, he ran deeper into Mingzhu Xinggang!
Rambo called out urgently: "Brother Huazi? Where are you going? Come back and support us!"
Without even turning his head, Jiang Huazi raised his treasure chest high: "This contains a large quantity of Stygian Crystals I collected from the Minghe Death Star!"
"I was afraid they'd fall into the hands of prisoners or Yakeli in the chaos, so I risked my life to bring them out!"
"You go on ahead. I'll put these crystals in storage first, then come back to support. That way I can rest easy! Hurry, hurry!"
The style of the treasure chest was identical to the ones used every time the Minghe Death Prison sent deliveries!
Jiangnan had just drawn it with the Ox Horse Pen!
Rambo didn't suspect a thing and immediately jumped into the river!
Using the need to support Minghe Death Prison as an excuse, large numbers of Mingzhu Xinggang's garrison troops had been lured away!
For Jiangnan, this was the perfect opportunity!
The defenses and protection at Mingzhu Xinggang weren't actually that extreme to begin with!
After all, this was their own star domain, and the Netherworld Race was certain that no foreign race would dare venture this deep into the Stygian River Star Domain!
Their defenses were just adequate—mainly for maintaining order!
The Stygian River Star Domain itself was a natural defense. They only needed to guard against their own people!
Or perhaps it was the long period of peace that had dulled the Netherworld Race's vigilance!
Meanwhile, Bug Right Hand relied on his connection to the locating bug to guide Jiangnan toward the storage warehouse!
Charging all the way, nobody suspected anything was wrong with Jiangnan's identity. The ease was almost frightening!
Thus, he arrived at Yanshan Grand Vault!
All the Stygian Crystals delivered from nearby life planets were stored inside, along with strategic reserves!
The vault contained not just Stygian Crystals, but also other spirit materials, ores, and other important resources!
But Jiangnan's goal was clear: he was after the Stygian Crystals!
Under normal circumstances, Jiangnan could teleport in with one move. But now he had to obediently go through the proper procedures!
In the Yanshan Grand Vault's receiving room, Jiang Huazi slapped the treasure chest onto the table!
"Crystal delivery! Hurry up! I'm in a rush!"
The Netherworld race vault keeper on duty quickly stood up!
(*゚口゚) "Brother Huazi? Hiss—you're really badly injured. Did something really happen at the Netherworld Death Prison?"
Jiang Huazi rolled his eyes:
(꒪ัཀ꒪ั#) "No duh! You think I gave myself all these injuries?"
The vault keeper's expression turned serious: (ಠĹ̯ಠ˵) "Brother Huazi! Don't worry about these crystals. I'll handle the storage myself. Since you're in a hurry, leave the rest to me—I'll take care of it!"
Jiang Huazi: !!!
Leave it to you? Then how the hell am I supposed to get into the vault?
"Bullshit! Don't think I don't know what you're planning! At a time like this, you're still trying to skim a little off the top?"
"These crystals barely made it out with my life! I need to see them go into storage with my own eyes to be at ease!"
"Hurry up! Don't delay me from getting back to support!"
As he spoke, he grabbed the vault keeper by the collar and forcefully pushed forward!
The vault keeper was sweating profusely, clearly caught red-handed, his face full of awkwardness!
(´-﹏-`‧̣̥̇) "Yes! Brother Huazi, you're absolutely right!"
Just like that, he led Jiangnan through with all the green lights, arriving smoothly at the vault entrance. After completing the biometric gene verification and unlocking...
Under Jiang Huazi's expectant gaze, the massive alloy doors of the treasure vault slowly slid open!
Jiangnan's eyes gleamed with excitement. Was this really going to be this easy?
