Fey Evolution Merchant

Chapter 3026 Species Ranking Target!

Lin Yuan had maintained communication with Yi He all along. Usually, Yi He would ask Lin Yuan about Sky City through the ramet of the Fantasy Crystal Birth Stone Flower.

Lin Yuan was willing to tell a Grade 5 Creator like Yi He about the situation.

Yi He would ask Lin Yuan about Zhong Zhiyu. Every time he talked about Zhong Zhiyu, Lin Yuan could sense Yi He’s indistinct hostility toward him.

Lin Yuan knew that Yi He treated Zhong Zhiyu as his potential opponent as his Creation Master abilities were stronger than Yi He’s. It wasn’t a bad thing for Yi He to regard Zhong Zhiyu as a competitor because it would help the latter improve his abilities.

Lin Yuan trusted Zhong Zhiyu enough, but he was unwilling to let Zhong Zhiyu become the sole decision maker in the entire Creator team. There might not be any problems in the short term, but in the long term, Zhong Zhiyu’s authority in the Creation Master team would not be able to be controlled. If Zhong Zhiyu made any mistakes in his decision, it would have a serious impact on Sky City.

Yi He’s hostility toward Zhong Zhiyu would not only encourage himself to grow, but also allow Zhong Zhiyu to grow.

“Senior Yi He, I’m going to the Scarlet Territory in the next few days. The academic exchange should be completed in five days, right?”

Yi He hurriedly said, “Apart from a Grade 5 Creator, Young Master, everyone else is here. The meeting can be held once this Grade 5 Creator arrives. This Grade 5 Creator is called Si Xue. She’s a female Creator. We’re old acquaintances. She is late because she went to capture an extremely special fey. She contacted me yesterday and said that she would arrive this afternoon.

“Calculating the time, it should be within an hour or two. Every time the academic exchange is convened, discussions on the topics often span several years. However, three to five days are enough for you to achieve your goal, Young Master.”

Upon hearing his words, Lin Yuan asked, “Senior Yi He, you will be the one to lead this academic exchange. Will it affect you if I do this?”

Yi He hurriedly waved his hand when he heard Lin Yuan’s words. “Young Master, the impact, of course, will be there. However, as long as we strive to ensure that they all submit to Sky City, the impact will be minimal. At first, I didn’t think it was a good idea to attack these Creators, but now, I don’t think it’s necessary to only recruit Creators with limited lifespans under Sky City. Other Creators can also be encouraged to join Sky City. Otherwise, if we miss out on this opportunity, it will be difficult to bring together so many Creators again!”

After saying that, Yi He said to Lin Yuan, “Young Master, the reason why so many people are here, including Si Xue, is because I said that I want to share my method to increase my lifespan.”

Yi He had not told Lin Yuan about this before, so now he was revealing them to him to give him a pleasant surprise. Yi He was showing his value to Lin Yuan before returning to Sky City. With more Creators joining Sky City because of him, it would be more convenient for him to compete with Zhong Zhiyu.

Upon hearing Yi He’s words, Lin Yuan was a little moved. Yi He had tried his best to gather the Creators together. Furthermore, Yi He had used his own lifespan restoration as bait. It was indeed difficult to recreate such an opportunity once it had been missed.

After pondering for a moment, Lin Yuan asked, “Senior Yi He, how many Creators did you send to participate in the academic exchange this time? Apart from Si Xue, you said that everyone else has arrived. I think you must have done some statistics.”

Yi He lowered his voice. “Originally, there weren’t many people, but ever since I put out the announcement about increasing lifespan, not only those in the East Universe, but the Creators I know in other universes also chose to go to the East Universe.

“There are 32 Grade 4 Creators. Including Si Xue, there are 5 Grade 5 Creators. Four of them are low Grade 5 Creators like me, but Si Xue has reached pinnacle intermediate Grade 5 and is only a step away from high Grade 5.

“Young Master, if Si Xue can join Sky City, I hope you can let her be a vice leader like me and join the Creator team of Sky City.”

Lin Yuan was rather surprised. Yi He really had a lot of tricks up his sleeve. He had actually caused such a huge commotion. Six Grade 5 Creators including Yi He and 32 Grade 4 Creators were an unimaginable force even for Lin Yuan and it was indeed a little difficult to recruit these Creators. However, where there was a will, there was a way. Lin Yuan would certainly make an effort.

Apart from Winter, Lin Yuan felt that he had to bring Autumn along. With Autumn and Winter, it would be easier for them to hold their ground.

“It’s remarkable how you have created such a huge scene. All these people have come for the method to restore lifespan. It might be somewhat challenging to handle if you don’t reveal this method. When the time comes, I’ll assess the situation and decide how to proceed. You just stick to the original plan and host the meeting as planned. You mentioned Si Xue just now. I believe you must have a good relationship with a Grade 5 Creator like Si Xue.”

Upon hearing his words, Yi He chuckled. “Young Master, she and I have been friends from a young age. At this moment, she doesn’t have much lifespan left. I’ve already sent her an invitation. She’s willing to join Sky City. If there’s an emergency that arises, Si Xue and I can help out!”

Lin Yuan looked at Yi He’s expression and roughly understood the relationship between Si Xue and Yi He. Even if they weren’t lovers, they must have been close friends for many years.

Since Si Xue had decided to join Sky City, Lin Yuan did not have to invite her again. “Senior Yi He, I will remember your kindness in bringing a Grade 5 Creator to Sky City. Since Senior Si Xue will arrive in an hour or two, why don’t I go with you to welcome her? Coincidentally, I’ll send another person over.”

Lin Yuan took out the Fantasy Crystal Birth Stone Flower and sent a message to Autumn.

Autumn gave Fu Mi and Yun Qingyang some instructions, indicating that the two of them should lead the hunting team to the Scarlet Territory first.

Autumn came to Lin Yuan excitedly. Compared to leading the hunting team, Autumn was more willing to follow Lin Yuan.

Zhong Zhiyu had only met with Winter before but not Autumn. He couldn’t see through Autumn’s aura, just as he couldn’t see through Winter’s aura. The tall and handsome man was most likely an expert whose strength far exceeded his own like Winter. It was already extremely rare to have one such expert, but Lin Yuan had two such experts by his side.

When Zhong Zhiyu was communicating with Lin Yuan, he had already noticed Chu Ci, who was standing beside him. Chu Ci’s lifespan was comparable to Lin Yuan’s. In just a few decades, she had advanced her strength to the Divine Kingdom level. Yi He was a little curious about what kind of faction could nurture so many young prodigies.

As he looked at Chu Ci, Lin Yuan noticed the surprise in Yi He’s eyes.

Humans, like those feys, were intelligent species. However, their body compositions were much weaker than those beast tamers. However, the probability of a spirit contractor appearing among humans was extremely high, far higher than other beast tamers.

In addition, it was very easy for humans to increase their strength through the resources as if there was no upper limit. To a certain extent, humans had very great potential and it was not something other species could compare to. If there was a chance in the future, Lin Yuan could even bring humans to break through to the Species Ranking.

It was said that every time the Species Ranking changed, the species ranked at the top would obtain immense benefits. In particular, the leaders of the species could benefit by the providence of the Species Ranking. At the same time, they could choose resources of different levels according to their ranking in the Species Tower.

Lin Yuan had learned about the Species Ranking’s topics from fragments of ancient books. However, Lin Yuan wasn’t too sure about the Species Ranking’s rotation, and he had no intention of inquiring about it at the moment. If Lin Yuan wanted to lead the humans to break through to the Species Ranking, it would not be an easy task and would require long-term accumulation to achieve.

Yi He brought Lin Yuan to the top of Green Rock Mountain and waited. Autumn and Winter stood behind Lin Yuan, while Chu Ci stood beside him and surveyed the scenery around Green Rock Mountain.

While viewing the scenery, Chu Ci could not help but exclaim. The environment on Green Rock Mountain was simply too beautiful. It was even better than the environment in Chu Ci’s dream.

Upon hearing Chu Ci’s exclamation,Yi He smiled. “Miss, the environment here is not bad, right? I’ve occupied Green Rock Mountain for tens of thousands of years. When I first came here, this could only be considered decent. I brought my servants to modify this place. Now, the environment here is already comparable to an ordinary blessed land.

“Furthermore, I have raised many cute little fellows on this mountain. Miss, if you like such an environment, I can help you create such an environment when I reach Sky City!”

After learning that Chu Ci was Lin Yuan’s younger sister, Yi He observed Lin Yuan’s attitude toward Chu Ci and was very respectful to her. He directly addressed her as Miss.

Apart from Chu Ci’s identity, the reason why Yi He called her that was also because of her likable personality. Chu Ci had manners similar to Lin Yuan. Under normal circumstances, the younger generation nurtured by more powerful species tended to be more arrogant. However, the faction behind Lin Yuan and Chu Ci not only put importance on strength but also their character, which was truly remarkable and rare.

“For me, Grandpa Yi, just appreciating the scenery is enough. Besides, the environment in Sky City is already good enough, so there’s no need for you to trouble yourself for me.”

Just as Chu Ci and Yi He were conversing, a few soft sounds were heard. Lin Yuan saw that the sky outside suddenly lit up with multicolored hues. Nine agile birds with a dozen colors on their bodies soared by, and each of them had a long zither-like tail. Every time the end of the zither swayed during the flight, it would play a pleasant tune. The nine gorgeous birds with zither-like tails were riding on a fey carriage that was embedded with a large number of blue gems.

Lin Yuan recognized the blue gems on the fey carriage. They were the Eternal Life Crystal Jade and the Grand Sea Tourmaline.

These two things were hard to find outside. The Eternal Life Crystal Jade could keep a seriously injured person alive. It was an item that could prolong one’s life and was equally effective for Holy Spirit experts.

The Grand Sea Tourmaline was a holy object for water-type cultivators. It had the effect of absorbing the surrounding water-elemental energy and purifying the surrounding water-elemental energy. It was a waste to embed these two precious items in the fey carriage as decorations.

However, this was just enough to show the handiwork of a top Creator. It was likely that the Creator Si Xue, who was at the pinnacle of Grade 5, was sitting in this fey carriage. When they got close, the door of the fey carriage opened from the inside, and a pretty woman with long snow-white hair walked out.

Although this woman’s attire wasn’t as exaggerated as Yi He’s, the magnificence of her attire was the same as Yi He’s.

When Lin Yuan saw this, he roughly understood how these Creators and the others dealt with things in the Sky Beyond the Clouds.

In the Sky Beyond the Clouds, the Creators tended to conduct themselves in a highly conspicuous manner. They did it not only to show their strength and status, but also to intimidate others. This behavior had nothing to do with their personality, but was influenced by the environment of the Sky Beyond the Clouds. Lin Yuan thought to himself that it seemed necessary for him to conduct himself in a more high-profile manner in the future.

Previously, Yi He had engaged in a very serious and detailed conversation with Si Xue. Upon seeing Lin Yuan, she did not put on any airs and instead bowed deeply to him.

“Mr. Lin, I’ve heard a lot about you. We’re finally fated to meet today. I’m old friends with Yi He. I accepted Yi He’s invitation to join Sky City. I wonder if Mr. Lin is willing to accept me?”

Since she had decided to join Sky City, Si Xue no longer put on airs in front of Lin Yuan. Given her relationship with Yi He, it was highly unlikely that his earnest invitation to join Sky City would be misguided.

Yi He’s mouth was very tight. No matter how she asked Yi He about the solution to her lifespan, Yi He remained silent. He only told Si Xue that as long as she joined Sky City, she would not have to worry about her lifespan in the future. Yi He’s respect for Lin Yuan made Si Xue certain that Lin Yuan had a powerful background. Otherwise, given Yi He’s personality, why would he show such an attitude?!

When Lin Yuan heard Si Xue’s words, he quickly expressed his goodwill and sincerity, “Senior Si Xue, it is Sky City’s great fortune that you are willing to join us. I heard from Senior Yi He that you’re also busy with your lifespan problem. Now that you’ve joined Sky City, the issue of your lifespan will no longer trouble you. I’ll help you resolve it after this exchange. No matter what decision I make at the exchange, I hope Senior Si Xue can cooperate with me!”
