Cough… Alright, alright, no more praise.”
“Keep praising me and I’ll start floating.”
“By the way, YueXi, how’s the investigation of the surrounding islands going?” Zhou Sui quickly steered the conversation elsewhere.
He couldn’t handle being showered with compliments by his own wives, as if they continued, he might not be able to control himself.
After all, he knew his own aptitude and it was only average.
If it weren’t for the aid of the Gu Divine Bowl, he wouldn’t be able to reach his current state.
The coward that he was in his previous life, as an otaku, was not apt for conflict.
Therefore, he’s always been careful, cautious, like walking on thin ice, afraid that one misstep could ruin their good situation.
“In this month’s time, our three major sects have sent out disciples to scout for information.”
“We did get quite a few pieces of useful intelligence.”
“Our current location, the Tri-Star Island Group, is actually in a remote area controlled by the Wuji Alliance.”
“Far from Wuji Alliance’s main island, Wuji Island.”
-So, this sea territory is not very safe, you could say it’s full of all sorts – a real mixed bag.”
Leng Yuexi said in a profound voice, relaying the information she’d managed to collect over the days.
“Oh, how come?”
“Isn’t this a sea territory controlled by the Wuji Alliance? How can it be unsafe?”
Zhou Sui frowned.
This matter concerned his own life, if it were truly unsafe, then he’d have to get ready to run.
After all, he’d run away before, not just once or twice.
Even though there was a fourth stage Spirit Vein here, it couldn’t compare to his own safety.
Although this is indeed a sea territory ruled by the Wuji Alliance.”
“But, the sea territory ruled by the Wuji Alliance is really too big, surpassing several billion kilometers.”
“Such a vast sea territory, they can only manage the core areas effectively.”
As for the peripheral areas, they are willing but unable.”
‘We, as the peripheral members of the Wuji Alliance, basically all reside in these peripheral sea territories.”
“These sea territories house a large number of Loose Cultivators, robbers
family Cultivators and small sect Cultivators.”
Due to the lack of absolute rule, no one acknowledges anyone.”
“Even if a robbery or killing incident were to occur and was reported to the
Wuji Alliance, they wouldn’t be able to manage.”
“They would only issue a bounty if there were too many Cultivators being killed, causing public outrage.”
“Of course, the Wuji Alliance’s control over us peripheral members is quite relaxed.”
“As long as we pay enough management fees each year, they won’t bother us.” Leng Yuexi said in a deep voice.
She knew that living in such a place, they could only rely on their own strength.
Fortunately, they had three Golden Core Masters, so they weren’t scared of these threats.
“I see.”
Zhou Sui nodded, he now understood the situation of the Tri-Star Island Group.
It was somewhat similar to when he was living in Misty Cloud City.
The inner city was naturally very safe, that’s where all the family Cultivators resided.
The outer city, on the other hand, was far less safe, rampant with Loose Cultivators.
As for the city’s outskirts, it was a lawless place.
If you weren’t strong enough, you simply couldn’t survive there.
The place where they were now living was somewhat similar to city outskirts, it was in an area where everyone fended for themselves.
To protect oneself, they could only rely on their own strength.
Fortunately, he was now different from before.
He was already a Cultivator at the late stage of Foundation Establishment. Together with the three Dao companions in the Golden Core Realm, even in the chaotic sea territory, he could survive.
They had no fear of being attacked by other enemies.
“The dominant powers in this sea territory are mainly Golden Core families.”
“For instance, the Yu family, they have five Golden Core Masters. They are one
of the dominant forces in this sea territory.”
“The Yu Family’s Island is also widely famous, with the city built on it attracting many Cultivators for trade.”
“It can be considered a renowned trading city in this sea territory.”
‘Aside from the Yu family, there are also the Dai family and the Song family, and others. Their families also have three Golden Core Masters.”
Leng Yuexi continued to share the information she knew.
“A single family with five Golden Cores? Isn’t that a bit exaggerated?”
Mu Ziyi was quite astonished.
After all, based on the situation at Immortal Mist Island, a Golden Core family only had one Golden Core Master. Two Golden Core Masters were considered invincible, while three Golden Core Masters was simply unimaginable.
She never thought that the so-called Yu family would have five Golden Core Masters, it was simply inconceivable.
“Indeed, it’s quite exaggerated.”
“But in this sea territory, it’s quite a common occurrence.”
“Because the resources here are really rich, much richer than our Immortal Mist Island.”
“Although the number of Golden Core Masters in this sea territory is rare it’s not unheard of.”
“The probability of achieving a Golden Core is several times higher than
staying on Immortal Mist Island.”
“Compared to this, our Immortal Mist Island is indeed a backwater.”
Leng Yuexi revealed a hint of lament.
She finally understood why the Golden Core Masters of Immortal Mist Island wanted to leave and venture into the deep sea in search of fortune.
Because resources on Immortal Mist Island were indeed scarce.
It couldn’t compare to the prosperous islands in the Canglan Sea.
In this sea territory, Foundation Establishment Cultivators were numerous.
Golden Core Masters were not an uncommon sight.
Only a Nascent Soul Ancestor could become a dominant force.
“Why are they all Golden Core families? Aren’t there any Golden Core Sects?”
“Could it be that in this sea territory, the power of the sects is weaker?”
Ji Bingyu picked up on this.
After all, on Immortal Mist Island, the power of the sects was much stronger
than that of the families. The families couldn’t match the sects..
