Fey Evolution Merchant (Web Novel)
chapter-2150

An expert who did not distinguish themselves could never lay eyes on a Class 5 Creation Master.

Meanwhile, Lin Yuan had met more Class 5 Creation Masters than he could count on one hand.

Aside from the Moon Empress, Chef Supreme, and Bamboo Monarch, Lin Yuan also had Di Wanmi and Yi Huailu as his subordinates.

The Goddess of Mercy and Fifth Page Truth had not had their eyes on Lin Yuan.

One of them had been killed by him.

Lin Yuan was acquainted with enough Class 5 Creation Masters to support seven large federations.

When Lin Yuan killed Fifth Page Truth, he had thought about taking control of Fifth Page Truth's body using the Tongue of Relinquish.

Alas, Red Thorn made it clear that it could not take control of experts who had unlocked their spirit attribute. Otherwise, Lin Yuan would not have instructed Begin Lady to burn Fifth Page Truth's body to ashes.

But no matter how many Class 5 Creation Masters Lin Yuan was acquainted with, he would never be able to leverage his personal Class 5 Creation Master power in a critical situation like Fifth Page Truth had done.

In a society where Class 5 Creation Masters were scarce, every Class 5 Creation Master could carry their own arrogance.

Lin Yuan hoped that Fifth Page Truth's Class 5 Creation Master would not be too puffed up on arrogance.

If they were too full of themselves and had not awakened their birth horoscope, Lin Yuan did not mind bestowing the same existence on the Class 5 Creation Master as the one that Di Wanmi was experiencing.

A puppet with no potential would be more beneficial to Sky City than a recalcitrant living person.

…

Jin Qianxun relaxed when he received Lin Yuan's response.

Now that he was at ease, Jin Qianxun continued as his old self. He played it safe as he waited for Lin Yuan to come and help.

The Jin family did not have many members, but with Jin Qianxun's earnest protection, they had more direct and collateral members in total than the other secret aristocratic families who had participated in the scuffle for resources.

Jin Qianding was dead by the time Fifth Page Truth died.

Jin Qianxing had been killed by Jin Qianding when he voiced his opposition.

Jin Qianxun used his seniority and status to seat himself as the head of the Jin family with no competition.

While Jin Qianxun was playing it safe, in a tent far away, a white-haired elderly man with a hunched back was sighing over a failed crystal bottle of spirit fluid.

Next to him, a young man wearing plain clothes said, "Master, you're unfocused! You taught me that it's always a struggle to successfully concoct spirit fluids when unfocused!"

The elderly man sighed and pushed the crystal bottle into the young man's arms.

"You sure are daring now to have the courage to try and give me advice! I might not be at peace, but it's still a Grade 4 spirit fluid. Store it away! When the other side arrives, offer up the spirit fluids on my behalf."

The young man tugged at his hair distractedly as he reluctantly said, "Master, why are we giving away spirit fluids all of a sudden? You're a Class 5 Creation Master—"

Before the young man could finish speaking, he was interrupted by the elderly man. "After working all my life, all I want is peace. I don't want to fight anymore! How can I put on airs as a Class 5 Creation Master in front of someone who managed to kill Fifth Page War?

"Baochuan, I have been teaching you Creation Master skills. Today, let me teach you that true talent recognizes their circumstances. After I offer up my sincerity, I'm sure the other side won't disappoint me!"

After the last word fell from his lips, the elderly man realized that he felt slightly calmer.

He took out another set of exactly the same spiritual ingredients as before and started the concoction process.

Next to him, the young man looked thoughtful. He seemed to be mulling over what the elderly man had said.

At the same time, he was curious about the kind of person who had managed to kill Fifth Page Truth.

While the young man was ruminating, the elderly man placed the newly concocted potion into the young man's hands and said, "Look, Baochuan. Haven't I calmed down now? Go and call over the leaders of the secret aristocratic families. I won't be able to express my sincerity by just handing out potions. We can prepare another gift before the other side arrives."

The young man seemed to only partially take in what the elderly man said. But he still left to gather the leaders of the secret aristocratic families.

But he did not feel a hint of embarrassment. Rather, there was a genuine sense of self-importance.

Normally, the leaders of secret aristocratic families would do anything to earn an audience with his master.

The young man did not understand why the leaders of the secret aristocratic families had to be called over when they offered up gifts to the conquerer.

It did not take long for the leaders of the secret aristocratic families, Jin Qianxun included, to arrive nervously at the elderly man's tent.

Previously, the elderly man had been a legend in the Truth Association. Only the now-dead previous clan leaders had been able to meet with the elderly man.

Given that Jin Qianxun had only taken up his position recently, he had not had the chance to participate in such meetings before.

Before he came, Jin Qianxun sent a message to Lin Yuan.

Frankly, Jin Qianxun did not want to come to the elderly man's tent.

His hope was that everything would remain calm until Lin Yuan arrived because even the smallest of waves would jeopardize his safety and plans.

Nonetheless, Jin Qianxun dared not ignore the elderly man's summons.

The elderly man looked at the group of family heads standing in front of him and sighed. "There are so few familiar faces this time. I called you over because I have something that I need you to do."

The elderly man's voice was kind and friendly. Yet, his words caused anxiousness to rise within every member of his audience.

All the leaders of the secret aristocratic families had guessed the reason for being called over.

On the one hand, they were afraid that the elderly man would make requests that they could not fulfill yet could not turn down.

The Hou family was currently the strongest secret aristocratic family and the family participating in the internal fight with the most vigor.

The Hou family's bid for power had already affected the other factions.

The Hou family's current leader, Hou Meng, had long aimed to enter the Great Lush Federation's imperial court.

Hou Meng knew that setting an example at such a time would encourage the other family leaders to acknowledge him.

"Elder Weng, what do you want us to do? If it's something achievable, just say the word, and we will definitely do everything we can!"
