Chapter 2968 - 2968: Deal with the Palace Master of Fortune Treasure Palace!

Lin Yuan’s stance toward Ling Muzhuo was even clearer. The main point of Lin Yuan’s words was that he would only become good friends with Ling Muzhuo if he satisfied his needs. This showed that the relationship between the two was determined by supply and demand.

Ling Muzhuo wanted Lin Yuan to obtain many resources from Fortune

Treasure Palace because this would encourage him to help him in the future.

As the leader of Sky City, Lin Yuan did not need to be overly polite when communicating with the leaders of any faction. The Sky Beyond the Clouds was a place that did not care about relationships at all. In the Sky Beyond the Clouds, relationships were determined by strength. Lin Yuan and Ling Muzhuo had interacted because they needed each other.

Of course, Lin Yuan’s words also revealed information related to him.

Lin Yuan’s mention of his arrival led Ling Muzhuo to suspect that he wasn’t from the East Universe. This puzzled Ling Muzhuo, leaving him unable to determine Lin Yuan’s true identity. Despite his desire to uncover Lin Yuan’s background, Ling Muzhuo found himself at a loss.

Given the resources Lin Yuan possessed, Ling Muzhuo could never have imagined that Lin Yuan had only arrived in the Sky Beyond the Clouds less than a year ago.

Ling Muzhuo laughed out loud when he heard Lin Yuan’s words.

“I’ve long heard from Zhan Lu that you’re a straightforward person. Now that I’ve seen you today, you really live up to your reputation! It doesn’t matter if you haven’t heard of me. In our future dealings, I believe that you will treat me as a friend.

“I’ve already asked Zhan Lu to mobilize Fortune Treasure Palace’s inventory to complete the transaction immediately for the supplies on the orders you brought this time. If Zhan Lu were to trade with you, he would need to spend at least a few months to gather these resources. In the future, we can carry out resource transactions according to this speed.”

Lin Yuan, who was hidden in the starlight, said with a smile, “Then I’ll thank you in advance. I have no lack of Creator resources, but I really lack all kinds of other resources to build my own faction!

“I will try my best to ensure that the supplies traded from Fortune Treasure

Palace are paid through Creator resources. I think this is also the key to why

Fortune Treasure Palace is so willing to trade with me.”

That was indeed what Ling Muzhuo had in mind. He had even intentionally made such a suggestion. However, Ling Muzhuo was afraid that this hint would affect the friendly relationship he had just formed with Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan had recently traded numerous rare resources with Fortune Treasure Palace, their value akin to Creator resources. Additionally, Lin Yuan traded for basic resources available elsewhere.

What set Fortune Treasure Palace apart was its capacity to supply vast amounts, meeting Lin Yuan’s requirements. Utilizing Creator resources for such basic supplies would be wasteful.

There was nothing wrong with Lin Yuan taking the initiative, but if Fortune Treasure Palace asked him to do so, it might seem like they were treating him as a fool.

In the end, Lin Yuan brought up the topic himself without needing any hints. To some extent, his actions resembled showing off his skills. His words confirmed his abundant Creator resources and his lack of fear in using them—he simply aimed to gather enough resources.

Fortune Treasure Palace loved wealthy guests like Lin Yuan the most!

Ling Muzhuo said in a serious tone, “Young Master Lin, you’re a special honor guest of Fortune Treasure Palace. You know how we have always treated special honor guests. Apart from taking the initiative to befriend you because our faction can obtain many Creator resources by trading with you, it’s also related to the strength of the experts under you.’

Since Lin Yuan had communicated with him in such a frank manner, Ling Muzhuo was unusually frank.

After a slight pause, Ling Muzhuo continued. “I think you should be able to understand one thing, which is that there are thresholds for cooperation and communication. No one is willing to waste time on weak and irrelevant forces.

I think you should be the same. I hope we can work well together in the future!”

Fortune Treasure Palace indeed had connections with Creators nearing the end of their lifespans. Among them were Grade 6 Creators.

These Creators chose to become special honor guests of Fortune Treasure

Palace. They were not only interested in gathering resources from Fortune Treasure Palace but also sought after spiritual ingredients to prolong their lifespans.

Such spiritual ingredients were exceedingly rare, making it difficult for Fortune Treasure Palace to amass them even with their best efforts over the span of a year. Additionally, certain experts within Fortune Treasure Palace required these resources, making it imperative for the faction to prioritize their distribution among their own ranks.

Should Ling Muzhuo miss this opportunity, he might deeply regret it and feel compelled to approach Lin Yuan once more to secure it.

Lin Yuan had subtly sensed Ling Muzhuo’s hesitation and uncertainty in his earlier, reserved response. This prompted Lin Yuan to explain the advantages Fortune Treasure Palace stood to gain from the transaction, ensuring transparency and preventing any undue advantage for his faction. Though he was indeed extending assistance, he recognized the need to offer supplementary benefits in return.

But in the end, this favor fell on Fortune Treasure Palace, which had already benefited greatly.

Ling Muzhuo’s tone toward Lin Yuan was much warmer than before.

“Haha, thank you for thinking of Fortune Treasure Palace! We have the contact information of those Creators whose lifespans are about to end. We will tell these Creators about the spiritual ingredients in your hands.

“I am very curious about the spiritual ingredients that you mentioned. I wonder if you can trade some of them with us? As long as it’s a resource that Fortune Treasure Palace has, feel free to mention it!”

Lin Yuan helped other creatures obtain endless lifespan through the Lifespan

Mice. Once this coveted resource was exchanged, ensuring that the formidable Creators of Fortune Treasure Palace didn’t uncover its secrets was impossible.

Even with a slim chance, Lin Yuan was determined to prevent any leakage of information. The Lifespan Mouse would remain firmly under Lin Yuan’s control!

Lin Yuan said directly, “I apologize. These lifespan-enhancing ingredients are foundational resources for me. They can be exchanged for premium Creator resources and secure a steady supply of high-grade materials. Thus, I’ll only trade them to esteemed Creators. I trust you won’t bring up this matter again, as I value our ongoing relationship.”

Lin Yuan’s declaration effectively closed off any discussion of trading these resources with Ling Muzhuo.

Understanding Lin Yuan’s stance, Ling Muzhuo felt a pang of regret.

Fortunately, Fortune Treasure Palace possessed its own stock of lifespan-extending spiritual ingredients. These not only sufficed for the faction’s experts but also provided trading opportunities with outsiders.

If Fortune Treasure Palace really did not have such resources that were linked to survival, they would most likely shamelessly ask Lin Yuan for them even if Lin Yuan rejected Ling Muzhuo.

Lin Yuan could sense that Ling Muzhuo truly wanted to befriend him. Thus, he would definitely do his best to introduce him to a high-grade Creator.

It would not be long before the resources of Sky City’s high-grade Creators were replenished.

The link formed by the Star Vastness Peony in space was subject to the same limitations as those of the Astronomical Parliament. This restriction stemmed from the fact that maintaining the link depleted the energy within the Star Vastness Peony’s body.

Having conveyed his message, Lin Yuan concluded his meeting with Ling Muzhuo. Now, all that remained was to prepare for the reception of these Creators and take them under his wing!

Recently, Su Yiren and Luo Lan had sought out Lin Yuan on two occasions to inquire about the gathering of faith in the faith country.

Su Yiren and Luo Lan were not the type to persistently trouble Lin Yuan over matters he was already aware of.

Their return to Lin Yuan was prompted by the exceptional beings in the faith country who, through their remarkable talents and abilities, had garnered the respect and affection of their peers, thus beginning to harness the power of faith!
