Summoners: One Golden Term per Level

At the same time.

In Gouchen Heaven.

Inside the Human Emperor Palace.

In the Fuxi Territory belonging to the Celestial Emperor Lineage, Shen Fei appeared within it, realizing that he had begun to touch the core interests of the Taiyi Dao Lineage.

He knew it was time to leave the Taiyi Dao Lineage.

When he first joined the Taiyi Dao Lineage, it was fine; back then, Blue Star was indeed an aid that the Taiyi Dao Lineage needed.

But now, everyone within the Taiyi Dao Lineage who could be converted to a Professional has already been converted.

The Taiyi Dao Lineage no longer needs Blue Star as much or relies on it; instead, they want to completely control Blue Star.

Even though the Taiyi Dao Lineage had treated Blue Star well before, money moves people’s hearts.

Shen Fei had always said he would never fully trust the Taiyi Dao Lineage.

Previously, within the Taiyi Dao Lineage, although he was considered to be on the fringes of the Divine Dynasty, some inside the Divine Dynasty’s remnants still planned to target him.

But due to the overwhelming momentum, they were ultimately suppressed.

But this also showed.

What influences people’s decisions is never factions but interests.

When the benefits are significant enough, even those within the same faction may turn against each other.

So.

Shen Fei had secretly been pondering this issue; perhaps an ordinary remnant of the Divine Dynasty might be tolerable for the Taiyi Dao Lineage.

But Blue Star was too unique, not to mention the Professional wave had already risen, and as the source of the Professionals, Blue Star had already caught the attention of many.

When the benefits Blue Star could provide no longer satisfied them.

They thought about swallowing Blue Star whole or at least thoroughly controlling it.

Sometimes, even if there’s a possibility of Venerable Fu Xi supporting Blue Star, it doesn’t matter.

After all, as long as the benefits are significant, not even Venerable Fu Xi is immune.

They’d even want to go toe-to-toe with Wa God.

At the very least.

They said that Venerable Fu Xi was protecting Blue Star, but there were already voices within the Taiyi Dao Lineage asking why, if Venerable Fu Xi was indeed with Blue Star, he hadn’t shown up despite the fierce battles in the Abyss, Void, and Dao Realm.

After perceiving this information.

Shen Fei contacted the Celestial Emperor Lineage early on.

At least for now, the Human Emperor Palace had some need for Chi You.

And before he left.

He instructed Luo Ran to directly detonate the space channel connecting Ba Yuan.

After Little Pu advanced to Human Immortal, he secretly returned to Wu Xia to set up the prior connection to Ba Yuan.

As long as it’s shattered with the power post-Dimensional Ascension of a True Immortal, the space channel can be detonated.

Even the passage from the Age of Gods was detonated.

Only the space channel connecting Dragon Abyss to the East Sea Dragon Race was left intact.

And these measures were learned by Shen Fei from his experiences in the Witch Realm.

The Human Emperor Palace naturally welcomed Shen Fei with great enthusiasm.

Although there were some previous conflicts between the Ji Family and Shen Fei, compared to the Fire Cloud Heavenly Grotto, these were minor issues that could be set aside.

Moreover, the current Ji Family, formerly the Fang Family of Blue Star, didn’t hold high positions in the Human Emperor Palace, as the most powerful among them might have gone to Yu Jiang, now known as Ji Wujue.

He held a favorable opinion of Shen Fei.

As for the former leaders of the Fang Family, within the actual Ji Family, they were nothing, especially among the true high ranks of the Ji Family.

The significance of Chi You was far greater than these clansmen.

And the current Vein Master of the Celestial Emperor Lineage even met Chi You personally, thus fully backing Chi You, and the reason Chi You left the Taiyi Dao Lineage became known to the Celestial Emperor Lineage.

The Human Emperor Palace immediately condemned the Taiyi Dao Lineage, considering this to be a betrayal.

In other words.

Now, the South Pole Heaven, in dealing with the Abyss, had gained much more ease, all thanks to the contributions from Blue Star; it could be said that the power of an entire realm had changed how South Pole Heaven copes with the dilemma of the Abyss.

Yet, the Taiyi Dao Lineage committed such an ungrateful act.

The Taiyi Dao Lineage naturally couldn’t admit to it; instead, they retaliated against Shen Fei, claiming he had breached the alliance contract and that it was inappropriate for someone with Chi You’s strength to hold frontline positions.

They also asserted that they had never stripped Shen Fei of his rights within the Taiyi Dao Lineage.

Ultimately, it wasn’t a matter of right or wrong; the Taiyi Dao Lineage wanted a compliant Blue Star, not one that continued to grow stronger.

If Blue Star was willing to pledge allegiance to a Golden Immortal within the Taiyi Dao Lineage, it might still remain within.

But instead, Blue Star seemed to waver between the two factions of the Taiyi Dao Lineage.

Previously, as the Professionals were still developing, neither faction wanted to offend Blue Star, but after the saturation of Professionals.

Things were different.

And soon.

The Taiyi Dao Lineage realized that without the elixirs and equipment crafted by Shen Fei, they had no significant advantage over other Dao Lineages that also had Professionals, even though they were already training their own.

Upon discovering this situation, the tense atmosphere from the Taiyi Dao Lineage began to ease, and they sent Jiang Xue and Daoist Chonghe to negotiate with the Celestial Emperor Lineage.

They wanted to invite Shen Fei back, but Jiang Xue was expelled by people from the Human Emperor Palace without even meeting Shen Fei.

However, it was said that those seeking elixirs and equipment could come to the Human Emperor Palace to buy them.

As for the pricing, it was already comparable to the market rate.

Additionally, many disciples of the Taiyi Dao Lineage found that the cost of purchasing elixirs, Talismanic Water, and equipment had doubled compared to before.

Originally, internal prices were lower by 20 percent, and while acquiring Shen Fei’s elixirs, the Taiyi Dao Lineage would also suppress costs, as they, too, needed funds to operate.

The net result was that Taiyi disciples buying the same elixirs saw prices shoot up to twice what they were six months ago.

This caused an uproar among the disciples of the Taiyi Dao Lineage, especially since nearly seventy percent of them were now Professionals, forming the backbone of the Taiyi Dao Lineage.

One might empathize with not having something from the start.

Clearly, Shen Fei was part of the Taiyi Dao Lineage, and they had long enjoyed low-cost elixirs, walking outside with more prestige than Professionals from other Dao Lineages.

At least many elixirs were unobtainable for Dao Lineages outside.

”Now, the Taiyi Dao Lineage must have a headache.”

In Fuxi City.

An elder, smiling, looked at Shen Fei sitting opposite; in his eyes, Chi You was indeed essential to the Human Emperor Palace.

But to him, Shen Fei was the one chosen by Venerable Fu Xi.

Moreover, Shen Fei was someone who had truly met Venerable Fu Xi.

”It doesn’t matter,” Shen Fei said, taking a sip of tea. The elder before him was named Feng Yi, a descendant of the Feng Family.

The Feng Family itself was left by Fu Xi, and whether they were descendants or disciples, no one knew; the Feng Family claimed to be descendants of a mortal incarnation left by Venerable Fu Xi.

And the Feng Family was intermarried with both the Jiang and Ji Families, with the Earth Ji Family originating from the union of a disciple from the Feng Family and the Ji Family.

They even identified the Ji Family ancestor, who was the progenitor combining forces with the Fang Family’s ancestor.

His seniority could be compared to the current Profound Immortal of the Ji Family.

”How much longer until you become a True Immortal?”

Feng Yi asked.

Shen Fei shook his head, ”Who knows, but killing seven or eight True Immortals should about do it.”
