Chapter 664: Scheming was a Form of Underestimation Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios Lin Yuan was confident that the third step alone was enough to send the Sea Bliss Clan to its doom. He would give his partner Gao Feng the honor of delivering the final blow. Shortly after, the blue-robed man returned and said to Lin Yuan, “I’ve received my instructions. However, every gestating Bronze/Flawless Angelfish of Bliss is an asset to the Sea Bliss Clan. What happens if the evolution fails?” Lin Yuan patted down the stray hair behind his head. He wanted the evolution to fail. However, with the Mountain River Eternal Life Carp’s Place of Life, the evolution could not fail even if Lin Yuan wanted it to. “I’m willing to compensate five normal Bronze/Epic Angelfishes of Bliss for every failed evolution.” The elated smile returned to the blue-robed man’s face. “Then, let’s make the collaboration official. Let’s swear on a Willpower Rune—” Before the blue-robed man could finish, Lin Yuan cut him off. “Swearing on a Willpower Rune won’t be enough guarantee for a collaboration like this. If the Sea Bliss Clan is willing to cut you off, the oath will become useless. We can sign a contract that the Spirit Guards will process. If any issues arise, neither party will need to be worried because the Spirit Guards will step in to settle the matter. As a sign of sincerity, Sky City is willing to cover all the Spirit Guards’ processing costs.” Lin Yuan’s words made the blue-robed man extremely awkward but also assured. There was nothing more secure than the matters handled by the Spirit Guards. Once they confirmed the collaboration, the blue-robed man was about to leave. He anticipated being received with praise when he returned to the Sea Bliss Clan. He did not expect to be halted by Lin Yuan. “Does the Sea Bliss Clan have the Aurora Morning Glory?” asked Lin Yuan. The blue-robed man’s thoughts were focused on the praise that awaited his return and replied without much thought, “What’s so good about the Aurora Morning Glory? It takes a year to produce pollen. It’s just a lot of effort without much reward. Not to mention that it produces very little pollen each time, and the market already sells it. The Sea Bliss Clan has no need to bother with the Aurora Morning Glory.” Lin Yuan’s lip curled into a smile. Once Lin Yuan sealed the deal with the Sea Bliss Clan, the people present started seeing him in a different light. Initially, they were just astonished by Sky City’s decorations. But now, Sky City had formed a collaboration with the veteran faction Sea Bliss Clan. The people now viewed Sky City as having the same level as the veteran faction Sea Bliss Clan. As for Sun Ningxiang, she could tell from Lin Yuan’s words that he had an ulterior motive for collaborating with the Sea Bliss Clan. However, she could not figure out what Lin Yuan had in mind from the short discourse. She thought back to Lin Yuan’s question about the Aurora Morning Glory and made the Aurora Morning Glory linger on her mind. Although some things had happened to Condense Fairy Orchard, it was still a top faction. The strong would never be truly crushed. Condense Fairy Orchard was still a leading institution when it came to plant-type feys and the spiritual ingredients that came from plant-type feys. Condense Fairy Orchard had planted numerous Aurora Morning Glories. Actually, a third of the Aurora pollen was produced by Condense Fairy Orchard. Sun Ningxiang glanced at Peach Witch and said, “Go and pay attention to the Aurora Morning Glory and Aurora pollen in the market. Also, stop all of Condense Fairy Orchard’s sales of Aurora pollen for this year.” Peach Witch did not understand why Sun Ningxiang wanted to do this, but she would not question Sun Ningxiang’s decision. “Yes, Miss. When I get back, I’ll instruct people to pay attention to the Aurora Morning Glory and Aurora pollen situation on the market and send out your order to the orchards. If anything strange happens to the Aurora Morning Glory and Aurora pollen markets, I’ll let you know immediately.” Apricot, who was dressed in a yellow skirt, looked between Sun Ningxiang and Lin Yuan. She seemed to understand the meaning behind Sun Ningxiang’s decisions. However, she felt that Sun Ningxiang was being slightly sensitive. Apricot whispered, “Miss, I know I told you that Sky City is a rising faction. But now I think that at the very least, Sky City has to be a veteran faction like the Sea Bliss Clan.” Sun Ningxiang nodded silently. From the way Lin Yuan interacted and spoke with the Sea Bliss Clan with a hint of slyness, Sun Ningxiang knew that Sky City definitely had as much power as the Sea Bliss Clan. It might even be stronger than the Sea Bliss Clan. Not every person was capable of scheming. Sometimes, scheming was a form of underestimation. It was just like how the Miao family’s Connected Beast Park was trying to entrap Condense Fairy Orchard. Lin Yuan checked the time and did not plan on waiting for other factions to arrive. “Since everyone has been here for some time, I’m sure not all of you are gawkers. Some of you must have come to support us after seeing our announcement about Sky City’s role. As such, these real supporters can go and pick a Fate Letter from the 108 constellation wheels. Every constellation wheel has a Fate Letter hanging on it. Amongst these 108 Fate Letters, only one of the cards inside is white. The rest is black. “Each Fate Envelope can be bought for 300,000 Radiance dollars. The person who picks the white card will pay three source-type lifeforms and order a custom Bronze/Epic fey that will be compatible with a Willpower Rune. 1 “The winner will not need to provide any spirit ingredients because it will all be provided by Sky City. However, once the transaction is made, the person or faction that is ordering the Bronze/Epic fey will need to make an oath of exchange on the Oath Lily of the Valley. 1 “As per the market price, Sky City is willing to trade for any fey of spirit ingredient of yours.. The oath of exchange will be terminated once the deal is completed.”
