Fey Evolution Merchant

1989 Official Opening of the Mystic Realm!

It seemed that the moment the storm truly broke out, all the factions in Sacred Forest City would be forced to make a choice. None would be excluded.

After Su Jian appeared, the lively conversation stopped and had not started up again.

It seemed that Su Jian’s reputation had long preceded him.

At that moment, the middle-aged woman who had been chatting with Ding Chengshuo said with a slightly worried tone, “Hopefully, the things we choose in the Sacred Wood Mystic Realm won’t coincide with those that Su Jian wants. Otherwise, he’ll force us to give them up when we come out.”

Ding Chengshuo did not reply. Instead, he instinctively looked at Lin Yuan.

Normally, he would be sharing the middle-aged woman’s concerns.

But now, he had become one of Lin Yuan’s subordinates.

If Su Jian tried to force Ding Chengshuo to give up his plant-type fey with the Sacred Wood bloodline in front of Lin Yuan, he would be openly insulting Lin Yuan.

It was unlikely that Lin Yuan would allow him to do so.

Thus, there was nothing for Ding Chengshuo to worry about. All he needed to focus on was finding a plant-type fey with the Sacred Wood bloodline that would be useful to him.

The time reached 8:30 a.m., and everyone realized to their shock that no one from the Yang family had shown up despite that family having the most representatives.

The Yang family was usually the most enthusiastic about entering the Sacred Wood Mystic Realm.

This year, the Yang family had not shown any mercy when they were fighting with the Su, Bai, and Yi families for seats on the council.

If the Bai family had truly decided not to enter the Sacred Wood Mystic Realm this time, there would have been no point in them fighting for so many seats on the council.

It was not only the Yang family that did not show up. The Yi family was also nowhere to be seen.

This was truly unusual.

Su Jian and Bai Dong’s expressions changed simultaneously, and both of them exchanged a look.

Lin Yuan had been keeping close watch over them and noticed this look.

The Bai family had indeed struck a deal with the Su family.

Lin Yuan was curious about how they had agreed to divide the benefits.

There could only be one family who eventually presided over the imperial court.

Lin Yuan already understood the Su family.

After Di Wanmi arrived at the Su family, they were willing to take on great risks just to keep her there. This was enough to show that the Su family was not going to treat their allies sincerely.

He had not been in Sacred Forest City for long but had already discovered the Su family’s true colors.

The Bai and Su families had been living in Sacred Forest City for decades and had been stopped by the Yang and Su families when they previously tried to attack the Yi family. It resulted in the Bai family losing a substantial amount of combat power to gain none of the Yi family’s resources.

Thus, it went without saying that they understood the Su family’s character better than him.

If the two families’ collaboration truly managed to take down the Yang family, it was certain there would be a huge dispute when it came to the division of profits.

Soon, Su Jian’s gaze calmed down.

Su Jian looked around at the members of the factions who were present before he circulated the spiritual power in his body and created a vortex of spiritual power that enveloped both himself and Bai Dong.

The vortex of spiritual power created by a thearch-class expert could perfectly block all exterior spying.

“Bai Dong, why are you so worked up just because the Yi family didn’t turn up? Ever since the Bai family attacked the Yi family and the Yi family’s elder died, they were left without any Immortal combat power.

“Even if they really run to help the Yang family, Yi Huailong and Yi Huailu are only thearch-class experts and won’t be able to make any significant waves. Moreover, the Yi family isn’t here. It’s likely after the Bai family killed the young experts sent by the Yi family during the last opening of the Sacred Wood Mystic Realm, they don’t want to suffer any more losses, and that’s why they didn’t show up to this opening of the Sacred Wood Mystic Realm.

“To be honest, you were too heavy-handed last year. Why wouldn’t they come this year if you hadn’t killed the Yi family’s juniors and taken all of the spoils last year?”

Bai Dong shot Su Jian a venomous look but forced his fury down.

The Yi family had indeed caused the Bai family’s power to drop precipitously.

There was no way that the Yi family would ever make it to the top of the hierarchy in Sacred Forest City.

But the Yi family had also caused the Bai family to suffer serious losses.

The Bai family used to have three Immortal experts. But the Yi family’s elder had sacrificed himself to take down two of the Bai family’s Immortal experts.

Because of this, the Bai family now paled in comparison to the Su family.

Otherwise, the Bai family would have one more Immortal expert than the Su family.

Although Bai Dong knew that Su Jian was a direct person and never ran his words through a filter before he spoke them, the Su family was now working with the Bai family. They would either bask in glory together or plunge into doom together.

Su Jian was not about to shoot himself in the foot.

However, Bai Dong did not agree with what Su Jian said.

Not long ago, there were rumors that Yi Huailong was going to personally lead a team into the Sacred Wood Mystic Realm.

This was why, during the Bai family’s operation, they sent him, the pinnacle thearch-class expert who had an edge over Yi Huailong.

The Yi family had been horribly bullied by the Bai family in recent years but had never lost their backbone.

The Yi family’s absence at the Sacred Wood Mystic Realm meant that they were giving up their pride in front of all the factions of the Divine Wood Federation.

There was no way that Yi Huailong was going to do such a thing.

Although he did not know why the Yi family was not in attendance, Bai Dong still agreed that the Yi family could not cause too much trouble for them.

There only seemed to be a small gap between Immortal experts and pinnacle thearch-class experts, but it was actually a world of a difference.

Nonetheless, Bai Dong still felt a tinge of perturbation.

He said to Su Jian in a low voice, “Su Jian, I think that we should report the Yang and Yi families’ absence at the Sacred Wood Mystic Realm to our families. Why don’t we—”

Before Bai Dong could finish speaking, he heard an exceptionally cold but also displeased female voice say, “The Sacred Wood Mystic Realm is officially opened! Everyone will remain standing where they are. You can enter the Sacred Wood Mystic Realm after I have checked you. Why are there fewer people here at the Sacred Wood Mystic Realm? Who will come and tell me the reason?”

When the woman’s voice rang out, Lin Yuan shifted his gaze from Su Jian and Bai Dong to the woman.

Visibly, the girl looked around 16 or 17 years old, slightly older than Chu Ci but not yet of age.

But according to the information Lin Yuan gathered, the Holy Lady had looked this way ever since she had appeared.

Decades had already passed since the Holy Lady first appeared.

In order to protect their position in the imperial court, the Yang family fought tooth and nail with the Su family for spots on the council.

Although they had lost to the Su family this year, they still had nine spots.

Only 100 people were given the right to enter the Sacred Wood Mystic Realm.

The Yang and Yi families made up 14 spots in total.

With 14 fewer people, this meant that the crowd had thinned by almost 1/6.

It was no wonder that the Holy Lady could immediately tell that the crowd was smaller.
