Chapter 2368 Frustrating Politics Of The Secular Worlds

Lin Mu's words echoed in the minds of everyone and they couldn't help but think that it was correct.

All the incidents had been happening for a long time, and only because Yao Changying had not done anything yet was why the Black Fin Island had managed to go unnoticed. Though there was another thing in common that had helped them.

Almost all the assassination and other 'jobs' that had been taken by them seemed to be for the Nobles of various regions. It wasn't just the Huiqing Empire either.

There were nobles from the Holy Topaz Dynasty, and also the Dao Wind Empire, that had made use of them without truly knowing. Finally, there was the Eight Kingdom Alliance that had the biggest use of them. It turned out that about half of the total incidences that Qiao De had in his register were all from the Eight Kingdom Alliance!

And these were only the ones that were known by the Black Candle Pavilion. There were bound to be several more that they had not discovered yet.

After all, the ones they knew of were mostly the incidents involving major cultivators with well known identities or ones that were impactful. The smaller incidents that might have involved the Black Fin Island members likely went unnoticed, as there was no 'value' in keeping track of them.

"How much fortune do you think they would have managed to accumulate by this?" Crown Prince Feng Shun questioned.

"Mm… that is very hard to say. Considering that they had done most of the things without notice, I don't think the payments were officially recorded anywhere. For such covert operations, the cost is usually higher and they would most certainly charge a premium price with the 'quality' of their services.

I estimate it should be at least… a couple billion High Grade Immortal Stones worth or even more." Qiao De said after calculating in his mind.

"A couple of billions!?" It was certainly a massive number for everyone here. Even for the two royals, the number of Immortal Stones was something that would be enough to run the empire for decades, if not a century!

And if it was considered as personal wealth, a sole individual would be able to use this amount right from the time they were a False Immortal all the way to the Seventh Tribulation Stage of the Immortal realm and still have excess left over.

It was simply a massive amount.
