Chapter 2222

Upon hearing the manager of San Shi San Lou's words, the Elder of Extreme Bliss Palace wanted nothing more than to slap him to death.

Translation: Hearing the manager of San Shi San Lou say that, the Elder of Extreme Bliss Palace only wanted to slap him to death.

We need to use glossary terms: San Shi San Lou, Extreme Bliss Palace, Elder. Also the term manager corresponds to that role; we can translate it as manager (generic).

Thus: Hearing the manager of San Shi San Lou say that, the Elder of Extreme Bliss Palace only wanted to slap him to death.

If it weren't for the fact that he temporarily needed to rely on the other party's strength in Boundless Immortal City, he would have already taken action.

Translation: If it weren't that in Wuji Xiancheng he temporarily still needed to rely on the other party's strength, he would have really struck.

Better: If it weren't for needing the other party's strength in Wuji Xiancheng for the time being, he would have already attacked.

We'll produce: If it weren't that in Wuji Xiancheng he temporarily still needed to rely on the other party's strength, he would have really struck.

Translation: "You mean I'm just going to give those treasures of Extreme Bliss Palace to that Ye-surname guy for nothing? I told you to kill him, not to give him money."

We need to use Ye Zhangqing? The line says "that Ye-surname person" which is "that Ye-surname person". Since we have Ye Zhangqing as the protagonist, we can translate as "Ye Zhangqing". But the line doesn't give full name; but we know it's Ye Zhangqing. According to rules, we should use the glossary name for the character when referring to him. So replace "that Ye-surname person" with "Ye Zhangqing". Also "those treasures of Extreme Bliss Palace" -> "those treasures of Extreme Bliss Palace". So translation: "You mean I'm just

I know, this isn't an accident, is it? Nobody wants this. Otherwise, let's temporarily give these treasures to that Ye, and later when I report to the master, I'll repay Extreme Bliss Palace.

Translation: After all, with such a large batch of treasures, a minor Elder like him couldn't bear the responsibility; if the sect investigates later, he'll also suffer.

We need to use Sect (from glossary). So: "After all, with such a large batch of treasures, a minor Elder like him couldn't bear the responsibility; if the Sect investigates later, he'll also suffer."

At this moment, the manager of San Shi San Lou being able to say this is indeed the best outcome.

Translation: After he left, the manager went again to that secret Dong Fu, and through the Grand Revelation Formation, contacted the behind-the-scenes master of San Shi San Lou.

We need to use Dong Fu, Formation. The term translates to "Grand Revelation Formation". We'll use that. Not in glossary but okay.

The formation is connected; within the light curtain remains that golden lake, its golden light blinding, making the opposite scene indistinct, with only a vague human figure flickering in and out of sight.

Translation: The Formation connected, and within the light curtain remained that golden lake; the golden light was blinding, making the opposite scene indistinct, with only a vague figure flickering in and out.

"Yes."

"Well done; continue like this from now on..."

Translation: Completely unaware of the situation at San Shi San Lou, the next day Ye Zhangqing had Bai Hua Xianzi bring Hongye and Huang Lao to San Shi San Lou to fetch the treasures.

We need to use Ye Zhangqing, Bai Hua Xianzi, Huang Lao, and San Shi San Lou. Also, Hongye is likely a personal name, so we romanize it as Hongye. Huang Lao is already in the glossary. Thus the translation is: "Completely unaware of the situation at San Shi San Lou, the next day Ye Zhangqing had Bai Hua Xianzi bring Hongye and Huang Lao to San Shi San Lou to fetch the treasures."

I had thought San Shi San Lou wouldn't be so straightforward, possibly leading to conflict, which is why I had Huang Lao come along as well.

"That's only natural; we accept the wager—San Shi San Lou wouldn't even lose over something like this."

Translation: "That's only natural; win or lose, San Shi San Lou can't even afford to lose this much."

San Shi San Lou can certainly afford to lose, after all most of these items belong to Extreme Bliss Palace and have nothing to do with San Shi San Lou.

Translation: San Shi San Lou can naturally afford to lose, after all most of the things inside belong to Extreme Bliss Palace, what does it have to do with San Shi San Lou?

Besides, this was the master's decision; what does a lowly manager have to feel sorry for? It's not his anyway—if the master nods, then we just move them.

Just thinking about all those treasures going into Ye Zhangqing's pocket makes me itch with envy, and yet this guy is clueless, showing up uninvited to tell me—you're sick.

However, the shopkeeper of San Shi San Lou paid no heed to the Ultimate Bliss Palace Elder's sarcasm.

He remained calm-faced, and even a trace of wisdom flashed in his eyes.

"No, I came here to discuss another matter with you."

"Another matter? What else is there?"

"Are you really willing to just give up like this? I have a plan that will surely succeed."

Huh???

Hearing that, the Ultimate Bliss Palace Elder finally showed some interest, turned his head, and asked with a burning gaze.

"Go on."
