Chapter 1899: Illustrious Master

Chapter 1899: Illustrious Master

Lu Yun finally understood why Lu Feng was so rich. Whenever someone offended him, he didn’t think of how to get revenge. Instead, he brainstormed how to make them cough up money for the transgression. While he wasn’t the richest person in the chief worlds, he was certainly among the top ten and someone who could smash enemies to death with pure wealth.

Of course, this was all due to personal strength. Lu Feng was once an incomparably mysterious grand supreme and commanded many heavyweights under his banner. Although he was a newly ascended grand supreme, he ripped apart many peers with his bare hands when creating the Wind and Cloud Pagoda branch of Darkstar.

Thus, while the pagoda was an uncultured upstart in many people’s eyes, it was an upstart who killed anyone it set eyes on. Even more respect was cast their way after Lu Feng’s identity as a spacetime traveler was revealed.f?e??e???ѵe?. c?m

Peculiar times reigned in the chief worlds as most of the realm’s preeminent powerhouses were preoccupied with exploring the tomb of the empyrean supreme. That left the rest of the chief worlds nursing the same thoughts as Lu Yun—they could do as they wished since there were no adults around.

Thus, a Rising Sunriver high supreme had come calling. If it’d been any other time, people would’ve had to wait outside the Wind and Cloud Pagoda even if the public enemy of the realm hid inside.

……

The divine nation of Rising Sunriver was thrown into disarray. Their current ruler was undoubtedly a powerhouse among grand supremes. While he was far beneath someone like Yun Yi, he absolutely possessed the ability to explore the tomb of the empyrean supreme.

Although this was when the tomb was the most dangerous, whoever dared enter it now would also reap the greatest gains. Therefore, the Rising Sunriver ruler had gone to the tomb. Despite there being another grand supreme filling in for his liege, his eyes and thoughts were fully on the tomb as well.

Who would’ve thought that Rising Sunriver would send people to kick in the doors of the Wind and Cloud Pagoda, and that two grand supremes would jump out as a result!

Thirteen hundred ancestral veins of heaven and earth, would the divine nation pay up or not?

If they didn’t, it would be the two grand supremes demanding payment next time. The current Rising Sunriver absolutely could not withstand grand supreme fury.

Thus, thirteen hundred veins were delivered in a neat bundle. When she received them, Luo Qian’s eyes creased into crescents from the force of her smile.

“If we had ten thousand veins, I would be able to have Nightmare deploy the might of a high supreme—no, a grand supreme in the Dark World. There won’t be any repercussions for her either!” Luo Qian merrily caressed a ring on her finger.

Just about to laugh at her for being so greedy, Lu Yun sharply jerked his head up.

“Ten thousand ancestral veins of heaven and earth will turn Nightmare into a grand supreme in the Dark World?”

“Yes,” Luo Qian nodded. “Many cultivators don’t understand what money is. Enigma stones? Ancestral veins of heaven and earth? That is the wealth of the chief worlds, and wealth means strength!

“Ten thousand veins can turn a ghost cultivator into a grand supreme when operating in a Dark World. That is the power of money!

“It’s a pity that ten thousand is too much though. The boss wrung us dry when he went to the tomb,” Luo Qian concluded with resignation.

With the Wind and Cloud Pagoda’s wealth, it wasn’t a tall task to take out ten thousand veins. Especially after the Resurrection Talisman came to be, the various factions of the chief worlds bid on talismans with ancestral veins.

But as soon as the empyrean supreme’s tomb opened, Lu Feng emptied the pagoda’s treasuries and made his way to the tomb alongside Chen Xiao, Qing Buyi, and a few other pagoda grand supremes.

The thirteen hundred veins that Luo Qian had just extorted was the current total sum of the pagoda’s wealth. She even had the new idea of sending Lu Yun and Nightmare into the public eye a few more times. When they attracted more enemies to their doorstep, she could earn a few more ancestral veins.

Just as much as Lu Feng loved money, so did Luo Qian adore money. Everyone in the pagoda sought to accumulate wealth because they subscribed to the notion that money was power.

“I have ten thousand ancestral veins,” Lu Yun thought for a moment.

He hadn’t claimed his share of the ancestral veins from the first talisman auction; Lu Feng had taken them all to the tomb with him. But he’d also extorted ten thousand from Yun Yi’s three concubines and placed them in the World of Immortals. They were meant to connect Fairylands to the world of immortal dao sequence, but Lu Yun accomplished it through other means later on.

After receiving the army of hundred million supremes from Tailong, he incorporated their great daos into hell and fortified the World of Immortals. Thus, the realm’s orders were spontaneously complete and the world of immortal dao sequence became the celestial world of immortals through the efforts of Fuxi and the others. It was thus the perfect counterpart to Fairylands on the ground.

That meant there was no use for those ten thousand ancestral veins of heaven and earth. They still remained in the vaults of the Dao Academy at Mount Xuanhuang.

Yun Yi is a woman, so why does she have concubines? Does she like women instead? Lu Yun suddenly wondered.

“If you really do own that much, I can turn Nightmare into a grand supreme in the Dark World. But, illustrious master, are you sure Nightmare will wholeheartedly help you?” Luo Qian asked without reservation, despite the ghost cultivator being right by them.

Luo Qian was strictly loyal to Lu Feng and thus viewed Lu Yun as the pagoda’s master in an extension of those sentiments. However, she didn’t trust Nightmare.

“No worries, she’d do it right now if I told her to off herself, wouldn’t you?” Lu Yun winked at Nightmare.

She blinked furiously back at him, expressing her dissatisfaction.

“Then that’s fine,” Luo Qian nodded. “A Dark World opens after its world heart is fully formed. There’s roughly a month left until then, which gives us ample time to prepare.

“When it opens, I will send our various genius sequence cultivators to help the illustrious master. You should forsake the Zhu Lingyan name,” she suddenly proposed. “The illustrious master of the Wind and Cloud Pagoda must have a status and identity greater than a disciple of the Myriad Spirit Grand Supreme. Not to mention, the illustrious master isn’t the supreme’s disciple at all.”

“Err, by the way, could you stop calling me illustrious master?” Lu Yun chuckled ruefully. “It sounds… weird.”

The Myriad Spirit Grand Supreme was his martial uncle, after all, and it was more convenient to borrow the man’s reputation when traveling through the chief worlds. But Luo Qian’s words also made him think of other considerations.

If the Wind and Cloud Pagoda blatantly allied with the World of Immortals at this point, it would give pause to many factions in the chief worlds. They’d all witnessed the pagoda’s domineering style for themselves.

However… While Lu Yun trusted Lu Feng, he didn’t dare trust the pagoda with complete lack of reservation. Though he could sense Lu Feng’s emotions, everyone had their own motives. Luo Qian might not nurse other thoughts, but that wasn’t necessarily true for others in the auction house.

Lu Yun was Lu Yun, he wasn’t Lu Feng.

“Understood, illustrious master,” Luo Qian nodded. “Then I will make preparations during the next half month, most venerable master. Luo Ming’s replica will come to oversee things. But ah… eminent master, just don’t butt heads with him.”
