Cultivation Pet Shop

Old man Qiao said with a smile, “Alright, since you aren’t interested in selling to them, then I won’t contact them. As for the Alchemy King Hall, I’ll help you contact them and I’ll get back to you after reaching them.”

Lin Fan gave a nod and he didn’t say anything else.

After all, there was nothing else for him to say in this situation.

They had already paid for the pets and they had received their pets from him, so there wasn’t anything else to be done in this situation.

All Lin Fan had to do now was sit back and admire the amount of points that he had now.

He had to admit that selling pets really was a lucrative business.

The price that he had reached with the people who bought his pets was a million spirit stones for each Child Soul Realm pet and ten million for each Nascent Soul Realm pet.

The price hadn’t been set by the shop, the shop had left setting this price to Lin Fan since he was the one who obtained the pet eggs in the first place. Since he was the one who found the product, it was up to him to decide the price.

So Lin Fan decided to set the price for each pet at a hundred times his price for training.

After all, the price of training in his shop was already considered much more expensive than any other shop. If he were to multiply that by a hundred, it was surely a large price for each pet.

But what he didn’t know was that this price was considered cheap for the twelve great factions.

While a million low grade spirit stones was equal to a peak grade spirit stone, which was something that even the twelve great factions didn’t have many of, that didn’t mean that the twelve great factions didn’t have other kinds of spirit stones.

The twelve great factions controlled the Galactic Humanity Alliance, so that included most of the spirit stone mines in this upper realm. The spirit stones that came from those mines weren’t low grade spirit stones or even mid grade spirit stones, they were high grade spirit stones.

High grade spirit stones were mainly hoarded by the twelve great factions, so the price of high grade spirit stones was not an exact exchange. Most times, high grade spirit stones would be sold for much more than just ten thousand low grade spirit stones.

The twelve great factions had been in control of the Galactic Humanity Alliance for thousands of years, so not just the low grade spirit stones, even the mid grade and high grade spirit stones that they had gathered were hard to count.

To pay for these Child Soul Realm and Nascent Soul Realm beasts, it was like a hair off of nine oxens for them. It didn’t even make a dent in their overall wealth.

Of course, that was only the wealth of their organization. It would be hard for them to pay for these individually.

After they received their pets, the representatives from the various factions all exchanged looks before leaving.

It was clear that they would contact each other after this since they knew that it was their chance, so they wouldn’t waste it.

Lin Fan didn’t care about that since he had already expected this.

After what had happened in the Ancient Era Ruins, he already knew that there was no chance of reconciliation with the Thunder Sect, the True Spirit Sect, and the Assassins Association. Since that was the case, he would use the other factions to take care of them.

And then there was his personal grudge with the True Spirit Sect…

He had been keeping track of the True Spirit Sect through Xu Lin who had successfully made it to the True Spirit Sect. Since he was the disciple of one of the Nascent Soul Realm elders, he had been able to get more information than normal disciples.

Lin Fan had him keep an eye on his mother’s Yue Family to see if they would do anything, but after bringing his mother and sister back, it seemed like the Yue Family hadn’t made a single move.

Lin Fan was confused why the Yue Family wouldn’t do anything after their display on the Blue Star Planet.

Xu Lin had even reported that he had personally met Yue Qingrou and Lin Xue, which meant that they weren’t even being placed under house arrest.

This was even more confusing for Lin Fan since he couldn’t figure out what the Yue Family was thinking in the end, but at least he knew that the two of them weren’t in any danger right now.𝓞𝗏𝓵𝐞xt.𝒸𝐎𝓂

He still wasn’t strong enough to go to the Yue Family, let alone bringing his father there.

While he could rely on the factions that he was close with to do something, he didn’t want to do that.

He wanted to use his own strength along with his father to bring his mother and sister back.

Speaking of that, he remembered that he hadn’t checked on the Blue Star Planet recently because of everything that had happened.

He wondered, how strong was his father right now?

Could he bring him up to the upper realm yet?

Then there was Jiang Zhi Shu and his other followers…

It seemed like he had to find some time to check in on the Blue Star Planet.

But first, what he needed to do was sell the rest of these pets.

He still had a quota for his mission, so he still had to sell these pets. The only problem was that he didn’t know who to sell these pets to.

After all, it wasn’t just anyone that could buy Child Soul Realm and Nascent Soul Realm pets.

He would have to see how many he sold to the Alchemy King Hall before figuring out a way to sell the rest.

For now, he would just leave the rest in his storage until the time came.

It didn’t take long for old man Qiao to get back with Lin Fan about the Alchemy King Hall.

He came early the next day, but not too early since he knew about the morning rush in Lin Fan’s store.

After the morning rush, old man Qiao came to see Lin Fan at the counter of the store.

Lin Fan was surprised since he knew how slow it was for most factions to decide on something. It was a different case with the Tamers Guild, the Hunters Organization, and the rest since they already had some degree of relation with Lin Fan. This was what helped them make their decision faster.

But the Alchemy King Hall was a faction that had no relation to Lin Fan at all and shouldn’t have known anything about him that would have helped them make a decision faster, so it really was a surprise that they would respond this quickly.

However, what Lin Fan didn’t expect was what their answer really was about.

“They aren’t interested in buying any pets. In fact, they wouldn’t even listen when I tried to give them an explanation, they just hung up on me. It really was strange how quickly they decided that they weren’t interested.” Old man Qiao said with slightly knitted brows.

He had had contact with the Alchemy King Hall before, so he knew how they would act normally. When he contacted them this time, strange was the only word he could use to describe how they were acting.

Lin Fan knitted his brows as well and after a bit of thinking, he couldn’t help asking, “Do you have any ideas why they would be acting like this?”

Old man Qiao didn’t say anything at first, but then he said with a sigh, “These are just rumours that have been spread, but I’ve heard that the Alchemy King Hall is undergoing some internal struggles.”

“Internal struggles?” Lin Fan repeated in a confused voice.

Old man Qiao hesitated as if he wasn’t sure if he was supposed to say something, but in the end, he still said, “It’s a silly matter really…” He gave a sigh before continuing, “There was a new genius that was brought back from a lower realm by one of the elders and she quickly became one of the geniuses recognized by the Alchemy King Hall. It was said that even the Alchemy Master of the Alchemy King Hall recognized her as his future successor and his last disciple.”

Lin Fan knitted his brows as he asked, “Does that mean that there are elders that are against this and they are trying to take her down?”

Old man Qiao shook his head and said, “Nothing like that at all. Most of the elders have already accepted her talent and have already accepted that it is likely that she will be the next Alchemy Master. But that’s where the problem lies.”

Lin Fan knitted his brows even more as he asked, “What problem?”

Old man Qiao said, “Naturally all the elders want more power and the only way to seize that is the support of the Alchemy Master. Since they have already recognized her as the next Alchemy Master, they want to set up their disciples with her to ensure that they have a close relationship with her.” Old man Qiao shook his head as he said, “They’ve really taken it too far though, even openly fighting with one another over this matter.”

After another pause, old man Qiao said, “The Alchemy Master is currently away looking for some ingredients to help make a pill for his disciples and it is during this time that the elders are making their move. They’re all trying to get their disciples closer to her, so they don’t have any time for external affairs at all.”

Lin Fan had been in deep thought as he listened to this, but then he suddenly thought of something as he asked, “What’s the Alchemy Master’s disciple’s name?”

Old man Qiao said, “Song Shu.”
