Chapter 560 - 285: Relic? Not Even a Dog Would Go!

Absolutely not going!

Upon seeing Lin Chang’an’s firm refusal, Fairy Ni Chang let out a sigh of relief in her heart.

After all, Lin Chang’an joined later, and although they’ve gotten along well over the years, Fairy Ni Chang still couldn’t decide for Lin Chang’an.

Especially when it comes to matters of opportunity.

"Sect Leader, with such an opportunity, I’m sure that in the future, elixirs, talismans, arrays, and magical artifacts will all sell well. The Sect should prepare more array materials.

Especially those disciples of artifact refining and arrays in the Sect."

Fairy Ni Chang of the Profound Sound Pavilion also had no intention to take a risk, and Lin Chang’an didn’t want to go either; the two of them were in perfect agreement.

Then, Lin Chang’an brought up his status as an Elder and began discussing with Fairy Ni Chang how they could take advantage of this opportunity to make a fortune.

With his status as a Tier Three Array Master, he could really make a killing with the support of the Sect, and this could even be a long-term business.

He hadn’t forgotten that he also had the status of a Tier Three Alchemist, and with the chaotic situation, more and more outside cultivators were arriving.

This would also bring countless other resources, his Qi Refining and talismans could also earn Spirit Stones.

This was a heaven-sent opportunity.

If the chance arose, he could accumulate Spirit Stones and let them fight in the Secret Realm; if suitable treasures were found, he could entirely buy them.

"Mr. Lin, rest assured, I have already started procuring various materials, just waiting for you and Elder Wen."

"That’s great."

"By the way, Sect Leader, my Spirit Beast, the Cyan-Horned Bull, has finally felt a bottleneck after years of cultivation; I’m afraid it will need your support to break through."

After some discussion, Lin Chang’an mentioned his spirit pet’s breakthrough.

Upon hearing this, Fairy Ni Chang’s lips curled into a subtle smile, and her eyes sparkled.

"Let me congratulate you in advance, Mr. Lin."

"Fairy Ni Chang, you’re too kind. You know how lazy and silly that bull is; I just hope everything goes smoothly."

If Lin Chang’an’s spirit pet breaks through to Tier Three, the Profound Sound Pavilion would effectively gain a Tier Three Golden Core Realm Spirit Beast as a combat force.

Of course, Fairy Ni Chang was pleased to hear this.

As for usurping the nest, she wasn’t worried at all.

For one, Lin Chang’an himself was an ascetic, and she had enough confidence in her strength.

Secondly, both of them were from the Yue Kingdom.

If Lin Chang’an really wanted the position of Sect Master, as long as he was strong enough, she would’ve already wanted to step down and focus on stable cultivation.

Both being from the Yue Kingdom, she considered them her own people.

"Mr. Lin, rest assured. In this critical period, the Long Family or the Four Seas Commerce Association will know the severity of the situation and won’t act carelessly.

I will personally go, while Junior Brother Xu and Junior Sister Liu will keep watch over the market and the Sect."

Seeing the sincerity in Fairy Ni Chang, Lin Chang’an too smiled, nodded, and clasped his hands in gratitude:

"Thank you, Sect Leader."

I must say, for these few decades, staying in the Profound Sound Pavilion has been quite comfortable.

For one, he’s from the Yue Kingdom, so there’s a natural sense of familiarity in the Sect despite being away from home.

Moreover, he isn’t greedy for power and never meddles in Sect affairs, preventing any conflict.

"Mr. Lin, here is some freshly picked Cloud Mist Spirit Tea."

"Then today, I must accept your hospitality."

The two laughed leisurely, just like old friends in accord for many years, sipping tea and discussing the Dao.

Fairy Ni Chang held Lin Chang’an in high regard.

A loose cultivator who dared to be a reincarnation cultivator.

Now with the potential of an Upper Grade Golden Core, and with such ascetic perseverance.

Within the entire Sect, only this Mr. Lin could discuss the Dao with her.

Within the Sect, she was aware of Xu Lingfeng’s thoughts, but she could only shake her head, as he was too self-satisfied just after forming a core, which was indeed unwise.

As for Junior Sister Liu Ruyu, she was wholeheartedly loyal to the Sect, but unfortunately, her talent was limited, now dedicating herself entirely to the Sect.

Simply wanting to take her out of Sect affairs, allowing her to cultivate in peace.

...

"What, the Profound Sound Pavilion has a spirit beast preparing to break through to Tier Three soon!?"

The Pill Formation cultivators of the Four Seas Commerce Association, Zhu and Liang, both showed helpless expressions.

"The Profound Sound Pavilion really knows how to choose timing."

At such a critical juncture, if internal conflict breaks out, no one will be able to seize this heaven-shattering wealth.

Hence, after the Four Seas Commerce Association discussed the matter, the Pill Formation cultivators of the Zhu and Liang clans showed resignation.

Indeed, although the Four Seas Commerce Association seemed grand, in reality, it was full of people’s minds, where no one wanted to offend anyone, all thinking about interests.

In the end, the Four Seas Commerce Association grudgingly sent a gift to the Profound Sound Pavilion, wishing for a successful breakthrough.

But in their hearts, they probably hoped for a failed breakthrough.

...

The Long Family.

"Patriarch, now that the Four Seas Commerce Association and the Profound Sound Pavilion have overshadowed us, are we really going to miss this opportunity?"

The Long Family isn’t concerned about the Profound Sound Pavilion’s breakthrough of their so-called Tier Three Spirit Beast.

The Long Family’s focus is on the cave residence ruins.

After all, as the once dominant force, the Long Family sees not just the Spirit Stone interests at hand, but an opportunity to restore their family.

"Is our Long Family still capable of handling unrest?"

"But I’m not satisfied!"

Internal disputes arose within the Long Family over this matter, and they ultimately decided to deploy a team of Foundation Establishment cultivators.

When the prohibitions weaken and allow Foundation Establishment cultivators to enter, the Long Family wants to take their chances inside.

As for allowing Golden Core cultivators to enter, the Long Family could only say they would decide based on the situation then.

The Long Family was too preoccupied to care about the Profound Sound Pavilion’s spirit beast breakthrough.
