Fey Evolution Merchant (Web Novel)
chapter-2333

Instead of searching for the big source fruit sprout, they were going to invade another world?

It was not Evil Source's style to give up the benefits at hand in favor of indirect benefits.

Moreover, were there really benefits to be obtained from trespassing into another world?

There were also experts who were stronger than her from the other world, and she could not be sure how many of them there were.

Invading another world was already dangerous in itself.

Unfortunately, she had lost the bet to Lin Yuan and had been bumped down to the last seat.

If they launched a crusade into another world, she would receive the smallest piece of the pie when they were dividing up profits.

Evil Source had long decided on her short-term goal. She would first deepen her relationship with Lin Yuan and trade for sufficient source-type power. Next, she would use the source-type power to rapidly increase her power and declare war against Carnage Source and the rest to further strengthen herself.

As such, Evil Source was unwilling to become part of the collaboration.

Evil Source looked around and believed that she was not the only one thinking this way.

After all, they had all been secretly fighting against each other for so many years and were all concocting schemes of their own. Thus, there was no way that they would be able to truly work together on the same side.

Evil Source could not be sure, but given Carnage Source's state, he would never be willing to join the team because he would end up doing all the menial and hard labor!

Evil Source said in a profound tone, "Eternal Source, I might be sitting on the last seat, but I'm not much weaker than you even without my book! I'm definitely much stronger than Carnage Source and Mountain Ridge Source! I suggest that they send subordinates into the alien world first to scout it out!"

The moment Evil Source spoke, Carnage Source and Mountain Ridge Source's countenances darkened.

Eternal Source sensed this and was about to say something to mediate the situation when he heard Hornless Dragon Source say, "I agree with this suggestion to have Mountain Ridge Source and Carnage Source send subordinates into the other world first to investigate the situation. We'll decide what to do next once they return with information.

"After all, we don't know anything about the lifeforms from the other world. If there aren't many useful resources in the other world or they are too powerful, we will be able to change our tactic from going on the offense to defense instead!"

Evil Source looked satisfied when she heard what Hornless Dragon Source said. Although she remained silent, she sat back and waited to see how the situation changed.

Evil Source knew that Hornless Dragon Source was the most careful of the seven and least willing to take risks.

Thus, Hornless Dragon Source would definitely agree to send out Mountain Ridge Source and Carnage Source, who were the weakest of the lot!

Evil Source's words already did not sit well with Carnage Source and Mountain Ridge Source. But after hearing what Hornless Dragon Source said, the two of them spoke up.

"If Mountain Ridge Source and I are sent to the other world first as scouts, you will be sending us to become cannon fodder. Will you make up for our losses?"

"You're right! If this is what you mean by working together, I will immediately back out and begin searching for the big source fruit sprouts!"

Now that they were both at risk of losing profits, Carnage Source and Mountain Ridge Source had formed an alliance and decided to back out together.

A sly expression appeared on Hornless Dragon Source's face when he heard what Mountain Ridge Source and Carnage Source said.

Hornless Dragon Source was very cautious, but he did not mind sending a few other experts out instead of putting himself in danger.

Samsara Realm Dictators could recruit as many subordinates who were Apostles as they wanted. If any died, they could be easily replaced!

Hornless Dragon Source had agreed to have Carnage Source and Mountain Ridge Source send subordinates into the other world as an advance team and had even intended on convincing them to go with the team of subordinates because he, Mountain Ridge Source, and Carnage Source had all joined Lin Yuan's alliance.

If both of them left, he would be the only major player in the alliance and could take advantage of the opportunity to deepen his relationship with Lin Yuan and trade for more resources.

Alas, his plan had fallen through before he had a chance to implement it. This greatly displeased Hornless Dragon Source.

Vine Source, who sat on the second seat, was furious by how the group had all drawn their swords so quickly. He shot Eternal Source a look of displeasure.

Vine Source expected they would not divide the profits evenly if they worked together. Those of higher ranks would receive larger shares.

There was already so much conflict before they started working together. The conflict would only grow once they actually started working together.

If they did not have a way of ameliorating disagreements, they would be better off working on their own.

The seven of them were not the only ones who knew about the big source fruit sprout.

Would Eternal Source compensate them if someone else managed to find the big source fruit sprout while they were gathered there?

Although Vine Source agreed that Eternal Source was powerful, he had always been too soft-hearted and did not possess resolution.

If Evil Source dared to oppose him, Vine Source would have already eliminated her!

Ever since Hornless Dragon Source spoke, Eternal Source had been silent.

But now that the situation had morphed into such a state, he let out an explosion of powerful aura.

The aura surprised Vine Source. After getting a detailed sense of Eternal Source's aura, Vine Source said in disbelief, "Your power has advanced!"

The other five had similar expressions. However, Evil Source's expression also included fear. It was as though Eternal Source would come after her now that his power had increased.

Eternal Source turned to look at Vine Source and said calmly, "I have increased my power, but not to a significant extent. I still haven't broken past the Samsara Realm. You can come to me for help in the future. Although I can't give you source-type power, I can guide you on how to break through! I'm sure my advice will be useful!"

Eternal Source's words caused Vine Source's heart to skip a beat.

Although advice was not as practically useful as source-type power, he believed that advice was even more useful than source-type power!

Eternal Source turned his gaze sharply to the rest and said, "Since I've decided to stay here as a leader, I hope you'll listen to what I have to say. With regard to profits, I can guarantee that everyone will be allocated profits according to their contributions. None of you will be at a disadvantage when we're investigating the foreign world!"

Since Eternal Source's power had grown, even Evil Source, who was always indignant of Eternal Source, decided against opposing him.
