Fey Evolution Merchant

Chapter 2886  Target: Scarlet Territory!

The Star Pirate Alliance had originally besieged Treasure City and treated it as their prey. The various pirate groups in the Star Pirate Alliance were all waiting for this grand harvest. In the perception of all the star pirates, the resources in Treasure City were exceptionally abundant on the eve of the Treasure Convention.

The upper echelons of the Star Pirate Alliance were originally quite nervous about taking action against Treasure City. Attacking a massive city under the control of Honor Absent Palace, especially for a newly formed Star Pirate Alliance, seemed incredibly reckless to anyone who heard about it. However, with the two experts' backing, the star pirate leaders were relieved.

Yet, star pirate leaders did not expect the Star Pirate Alliance would end up in such a predicament.

Liu Chen and Liu Yao had not communicated closely with the Star Pirate Alliance before. Their communication with them had always been one-way.

The upper echelons of the Star Pirate Alliance thought that Liu Chen and Liu Yao were behind the two glaciers that pierced straight into the void passageways, and the reason they did this was that they did not want these two pinnacle Class 3 dimensional rifts to transform into Class 4.

If an irreversible disaster was really caused, Honor Absent Palace experts would definitely trace the source and find out the truth. Ultimately, those who participated in this operation would inevitably face repercussions. Thus, the Star Pirate Alliance had been extremely confident from the beginning to the end, charging toward Treasure City without hesitation when the time came.

Amidst the clamor of battle, Li Feng methodically executed his plan to eliminate the factions that would affect the city's future development. Meanwhile, Liu Chen and Liu Yao followed Lin Yuan's orders and eliminated the star pirates that had invaded Treasure City.

As they were eliminating these star pirates, Liu Chen and Liu Yao noticed that they would often show signs of dependency, as if hoping that someone would come to their aid. From this, Liu Chen and Liu Yao understood that the people these star pirates were looking forward to were actually the two of them.

When the reinforcements from Treasure City arrived and completely suppressed these star pirates, this star pirate leader would inevitably reveal his and Liu Yao's existence. Even if the star pirate leader did not know of his and Liu Yao's identities, it would not deter Honor Absent Palace from spending more effort to find out the truth.

Liu Chen and Liu Yao were not afraid of trouble and did not believe that Honor Absent Palace would be able to find them. However, as Lin Yuan's subordinates, they were concerned about any potential impact their actions might have on him and how to proceed if their actions did affect him.

During this time, Liu Chen and Liu Yao contacted Lin Yuan and suggested that they get rid of all the star pirates and destroy their souls. It was the only way to ensure that nothing would go wrong.

After contemplating it, Liu Yuan agreed to Liu Chen and Liu Yao's suggestion. From his perspective, those star pirates deserved to die. Furthermore, Lin Yuan had just arrived and would continue to develop in the East Universe in the future.

Lin Yuan did not want to provoke a behemoth like Honor Absent Palace. He was using his true identity to travel outside, and he had also used Sky City's name. Naturally, he did not want Sky City to become the target of public criticism.

If there were any clues left after such a huge incident, Honor Absent Palace would definitely investigate thoroughly. However, getting Liu Chen and Liu Yao to not only eliminate all the star pirates but also clean up their souls would appear too conspicuous in the eyes of outsiders. It could raise suspicion of eliminating evidence.

While Liu Chen and Liu Yao could take care of these star pirates, it was better to let the City Lord of Treasure City arrange for people to clean up their souls.

While Li Feng arranged for people to clean up the souls of the star pirates, Lin Yuan could take the opportunity to let Rememberling absorb some soul fragments and extract the law power contained in them to strengthen the suitable white-clothed followers.

In order to extract the law power from the souls, he had to ensure that the souls were fresh. The souls of these star pirates that had just perished would be in the freshest state.

Li Feng would definitely be willing to help Lin Yuan, the guardian of Treasure City, just like how the latter supported Li Feng when he wanted to get rid of the disobedient factions. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

…

Soon, the first wave of reinforcements arrived at dawn.

Li Feng sent a request for help to the headquarters of Honor Absent Palace and the branch he was on at the same time. The first wave of reinforcements came from Floating Light City, which was adjacent to Treasure City.

There had always been a competitive relationship between the two cities, but when Treasure City encountered danger, they received orders from the higher-ups. The City Lord of Floating Light City had to arrange for people to rescue Treasure City.

Floating Light City's City Lord, Yu Zheng, had initially thought that rescuing Treasure City would be a challenging operation for Floating Light City. Unexpectedly, after he personally brought people to Treasure City, the battle there had already completely ended. They did not even require his help to wrap things up.

Yu Zheng was confused.

Yu Zheng and Li Feng were old acquaintances. He had always held a low opinion, and Li Feng looked down on Yu Zheng similarly. The two of them had fundamental differences in the concept of governing a large city.

Yu Zheng focused on improving the city's defense and recruiting experts, causing Floating Light City's economic situation to be extremely poor. A faction like Fortune Treasure Palace would not choose to establish a branch there.

Li Feng's shortcomings in managing Treasure City were revealed during the star pirates' siege. If Floating Light City were to encounter a similar crisis, even if they could not resist the Star Pirate Alliance, they would definitely be much more composed than Treasure City.

On the contrary, Yu Zheng did not believe that Treasure City possessed this ability. It was likely that there were ten extremely powerful existences among the people participating in the Treasure Convention, and they were willing to lend a helping hand to Treasure City.

Since Treasure City had already survived this storm, Yu Zheng did not let the experts he brought from Floating Light City enter the city again. Instead, he entered the city alone to meet Li Feng.

At that moment, Yu Zheng had no intention of taking advantage of the chaos to enter Treasure City to take his share of the loot. Firstly, Honor Absent Palace strictly prohibited such actions, and secondly, Yu Zheng did not want to become enemies with Li Feng.

The relationship between the two cities was competitive and cooperative. Both sides were pillars of support for each other, just like how Floating Light City would be the first to rush over to help when Treasure City was in trouble. The latter would also be the first group of helpers if Floating Light City were to face difficulties.

Thirdly, other factions under Honor Absent Palace would soon come to help Treasure City. Even if Yu Zheng really had any ulterior motives, he would not have the chance to fulfill them.

Treasure City had clearly just experienced a calamity, but Li Feng was full of energy. Although it was the darkest moment in Treasure City, it also welcomed the light.

At present, the happiest person in Treasure City was definitely Zhan Lu.

It could be said that Fortune Treasure Palace remained unaffected by this storm. Through this storm, Zhan Lu was also able to clearly comprehend how powerful Lin Yuan, a special honor guest who had just joined Fortune Treasure Palace through him, was.

More importantly, Zhan Lu had reached in-depth cooperation with Li Feng, giving him a chance to develop his branch in Treasure City and making it the most powerful faction there. This would allow Zhan Lu's status in Fortune Treasure Palace to increase exponentially.

Additionally, Zhan Lu and the three special honor guests had experienced life and death together, which greatly increased the bond between them.

…

Lin Yuan, the savior of Treasure City, seemed to have completely disappeared into hiding. However, Li Feng made sure to report Lin Yuan's achievements to Honor Absent Palace. When Honor Absent Palace verified the situation, they would reward Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan asked Li Feng to stabilize the situation in Treasure City before looking for him. After stabilizing the situation in Treasure City, Li Feng immediately went to look for Lin Yuan in the City Lord Manor.

Li Feng first expressed his gratitude to Lin Yuan before proceeding to explain the situation in Treasure City. He was about to invite Lin Yuan again to see if he was interested in attending the banquet in a few days, but Lin Yuan rejected him again.

If it weren't for the fact that the Bloodians were about to open the blood pool, Lin Yuan wouldn't mind staying in Treasure City for a while longer. However, it was obvious that the Bloodians' blood pool would be much more beneficial to Lin Yuan than staying there to attend the banquet.

Li Feng and Zhan Lu had ways to contact him. Honor Absent Palace had to go through a lot of procedures to verify the situation, and Lin Yuan did not want to waste time on these things. In any case, Li Feng would inform him about the rewards he would receive from Honor Absent Palace.

Lin Yuan was very curious about the kind of rewards Honor Absent Palace would offer him for protecting such a huge city.

After Lin Yuan communicated with Li Feng, he instructed Kani to inform Zhan Lu before leaving Treasure City.

Lin Yuan thought to himself that it was fortunate that he had made a large number of transactions in Fortune Treasure Palace after becoming a special honor guest. Otherwise, with the Treasure Convention being postponed, Lin Yuan would have wasted a lot of time in Treasure City.

…

While Lin Yuan, Spring, Winter, Jin Chen, and Kani headed to the Scarlet Territory, Yin Ruo was very depressed. As the princess of the Silver Blue Fairy Sharks, she rarely took the initiative to befriend others.

Previously, Yin Ruo had been worried about Treasure City's safety. If Treasure City could not successfully resist the Star Pirate Alliance that was wreaking havoc, even with two Holy Spirit combatants on her side, it would be very difficult for her to escape the Star Pirate Alliance's persecution.

At such a critical juncture, Yin Ruo did not have the enthusiasm to befriend Lin Yuan. However, after the Star Pirate Alliance was completely wiped out and the incident in Treasure City came to an end, Lin Yuan had actually left without a word, depriving Yin Ruo of the opportunity to initiate friendship. This left Yin Ruo feeling regretful.

Even if Yin Ruo was not aware of Lin Yuan's arrangements behind the scenes, in Yin Ruo's heart, Lin Yuan was the hero who protected Treasure City. Had Lin Yuan's experts not destroyed the two pinnacle Class 3 void passageways, Treasure City would not have been the only one to suffer the calamity.

Putting aside Yin Ruo's favorable impression of Lin Yuan, just the powerful strength that Lin Yuan had displayed alone was enough to prompt Yin Ruo to take the initiative to befriend him.

Yin Ruo sighed. She hoped that she could find another chance to befriend Lin Yuan in the future. Lin Yuan heading to Treasure City at this juncture meant that he was interested in the Treasure Convention. When Treasure City achieved its revival and the Treasure Convention was rescheduled, Lin Yuan would most likely return. By that time, she could create an opportunity to reunite with him.

…

Fan Lou had been reporting the situation to Lin Yuan along his way to the Scarlet Territory. With Fan Lou's permission, the Dark Pufferfish envoys agreed to the request to invite the Bloodian clan Fan Lou was with.

The Dark Pufferfish and the Bloodians began cooperation. The envoys mentioned the Four Species Overlords of the Lonely River were also interested in participating.

This Bloodian clan was quite delighted with this development, as it meant that their own strength would significantly increase.

With the support of the Four Species Overlords of the Lonely River, the Bloodian clan would be able to obtain a certain amount of support when competing with other Bloodian clans or fighting against the mermaids.

The overall strength of the Bloodians was extremely powerful, but the competition between the various Bloodian clans was also very intense. If one clan was not careful, the resources of their clan would be greatly deprived, and they might even lose their inheritance.

Lin Yuan knew very well that he did not have much accumulation or many connections that he could use in the Sky Beyond the Clouds. This made many of the projects difficult to implement. However, these situations were only temporary. As long as Lin Yuan was given more time, he would definitely be much more composed when carrying out certain plans in the future.

…

While Lin Yuan was out acquiring resources and expanding Sky City's resources, Sky City had also developed extremely quickly. The development of the faith country could be described as changing day by day.

The Land Imps that Lin Yuan had brought from the main world were extremely useful. They could easily adapt to the new environment and had a huge advantage in that they reproduced at breakneck speed.

Previously, the Moon Empress had been suppressing these Land Imps' reproduction. But now, she had given them the opportunity to reproduce freely and provided them with many resources to help them reproduce.

Once the faith country was established, the population would definitely increase greatly. Apart from being a safe haven for those weak lifeforms, the faith country would also be the source of faith for Sky City.

As the faith country continued to develop, it became very difficult to hide it from its neighbor, the Spinning Wings White Falcons.

The lone survivor of the Spinning Wings White Falcon envoys should have brought the news back. The Spinning Wings White Falcons would definitely respond soon. Since the Crimson Heaven Falcons had sent them on the mission to the King Blood Jackals' territory, the Spinning Wings White Falcons' attitude was not important. What was important was the Crimson Heaven Falcons' attitude.

If not for the fact that she could not contact Lin Yuan, given the rapid development in the faith country, the Moon Empress would have proposed to proactively engage with the Crimson Heaven Falcons and completely gain control of the entire North of the Lonely River. Without this potential enemy, Sky City's development would be much smoother than it was now.

The resources in the King Blood Jackals' territory were too scarce. Relying solely on its resources to build the faith country would greatly impact the living standards of the people living in it.

Although the living standards may be considerably better compared to what these lifeforms in the faith country were accustomed to, as they had always lived in the barren wilderness, if she could use the resources in the Spinning Wings White Falcons' territory to build faith country, the speed at which faith was produced would definitely increase exponentially.
