Chapter 1505: I Can’t Afford to Gamble! Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios The hand formed by the Night Empress slapped the other side of Di Wanmi’s face. This time, she did not have backup batteries to take the blow for her, and she was thrown into the wall. She coughed but was unable to climb back to her feet. Night Leaning Moon looked at Di Wanmi and sneered. “You hate others, but sure treat yourself well. In order to defend my attack, you even used the pinnacle Immortal Dark Lightning Pierce Shield as a shield. You know about the effort that one has to put in in order to survive. “Didn’t the Creation Masters you absorbed want to live too? You plan on joining Tower Canon and becoming a substitute for the Eight Pages. How dare you still call yourself a member of the Radiance Federation? The Sin Cleansing Pool is for the Radiance Federation’s criminals. What right do you have to enter it?” The Night Empress’ killing intent was more evident with every word she spoke. Di Wanmi finally managed to climb to her feet after a hard struggle. Although she still had feys that she could summon, she no longer had the courage to summon them after the Night Empress’ two slaps. She decided to make a final attempt. “As long as the Radiance Federation continues to supply me with Creation Master resources, I will eventually be able to reach 6 Stars. I’m willing to become the Radiance Federation’s puppet and work for the Radiance Federation for the remainder of my life. The Radiance Federation is so powerful that it should not be difficult for it to steal the Creation Masters from the other federations. I can swear on this promise.” The Night Empress lifted her hand and pointed at the thousands of Creation Masters behind her before she asked Di Wanmi in a demanding tone, “Aren’t the Creation Masters from other federations also lives in their own right? “Creation Masters make up the culture of spirit qi professions. They are the foundation of the era of spiritual power. In a fight between federations, we never attack the other party’s Creation Masters unless it is a matter of life and death. “Will the Creation Masters standing behind me approve of me letting you live? You have to compensate for the lives of all the Creation Masters of Sea Sky Nurture, Four Beasts Territory, and those who did not belong to any faction at all. Hence, you have to die, and you deserve to die.” Night Leaning Moon gave Di Wanmi a final ultimatum. The words Night Leaning Moon said showed what it really meant to be a member of the Radiance Federation’s royalty. Night Leaning Moon could have agreed to Di Wanmi’s request and forced her to swear on her promise. This would allow her to gain a Class 5 Creation Master as a servant. However, Night Leaning Moon’s actions were not only based on gains and losses but also on her duty as a member of the Radiance Federation’s royalty. She felt this responsibility weighing on her from the day she became a Radiance Envoy. The Night Empress was in no rush to punish Di Wanmi. Instead, she turned to Lin Yuan and asked, “Little Yuan, how do you think Di Wanmi should be punished?” Night Leaning Moon was not trying to test Lin Yuan. Since the Moon Empress was locked away to train, Lin Yuan represented her in this situation. He was the first to discover this plot, and Night Leaning Moon had promised Mystic Moon she would cooperate with Lin Yuan. Hence, Lin Yuan could take the lead in this circumstance. Lin Yuan was silent for a moment before he said, “I noticed that something was off about Whale Ocean Commerce because I met the Young Leader of Sea Sky Nurture Ji Feng by chance when I released a trade message on Star Web. I found out about the dark underbelly of Whale Ocean Commerce from Ji Feng. “Whale Ocean Commerce did not report this to the Hidden Moon Palace, which gave me an even worse feeling about them. I came to investigate because Whale Ocean Commerce was trying to recruit way too many Creation Masters. “I couldn’t afford this gamble! Even if there was only 1% of chance that my guess could be right, I had to come and take a look. The first victims of Ten Thousand Flags Trading’s scheme are Sea Sky Nurture. I propose calling Ji Feng over so he can end all of this.” Night Leaning Moon nodded and replied, “Little Yuan, since you have a plan, go ahead and carry it out.” Night Leaning Moon did not immediately send the thousands of Creation Masters away. Di Wanmi’s death would be compensation to them. It did not take long for Ji Feng to arrive at Whale Ocean Commerce’s residence after receiving Lin Yuan’s notice. Ever since he joined Lin Yuan, his thoughts had consisted of how he could repay Lin Yuan and get revenge for his family. At first, Ji Feng wanted to stay by Lin Yuan’s side for three years to repay him before he left to get his revenge on Whale Ocean Commerce. But Lin Yuan went on to help him time and time again, and Ji Feng felt that he would never be able to repay Lin Yuan no matter how long he stayed or how hard he worked. Ji Feng eventually gave up on his idea of leaving in three years to take revenge on Ten Thousand Flags Trading. Yet, Lin Yuan had fixed everything for Ji Feng without him needing to say anything. Moreover, Lin Yuan even allowed Ji Feng to land the final killing blow. This was enough for Ji Feng to feel blessed that he had joined Lin Yuan. Lin Yuan was a person who was worth Ji Feng following him forever. Ji Feng walked over to Di Wanmi, who was trapped by night power, and summoned the Karma Sword Lily. He used the Karma Sword Lily that had been nurtured by his father and stabbed Di Wanmi, killing her. Now that the matter was settled, the Night Empress waved her hand and used night power to move the Creation Masters to the entrance of Whale Ocean Commerce’s residence before they even had the chance to thank her. As she stared at Whale Ocean Commerce’s impressive residence, He Ji felt as though the past hour had been a dream. She had clearly been in a life-and-death situation and witnessed the charisma of a member of royalty and the bravery of a young man. Night Leaning Moon glanced at Ji Feng and nodded at Lin Yuan. Lin Yuan knew that Night Leaning Moon needed to speak to him, so he said to Ji Feng, “Ji Feng, return to the mansion before me! Ten Thousand Flags Trading might not be as close with Ten Thousand Source Hall, but they have never laid a hand on them. Ten Thousand Source Hall definitely has Creation Masters of their own. “Chief Guard Ye will investigate all of this, so we only need to wait for her news. Once Ten Thousand Source Hall has been investigated, you should return to take over your rightful place as the Young Leader of Sea Sky Nurture.” Ji Feng hurriedly said, “Young Master, I’m fine with staying by your side. I—” Before Lin Yuan could speak, Night Leaning Moon turned her eyes onto Ji Feng and looked as though she was looking at a silly man and said, “If there is something wrong with Ten Thousand Source Hall, they will meet the same end as Ten Thousand Flags Trading. If you really want to help your Young Master in the future, you should take over Whale Ocean Commerce and pick up the pieces.”
