saint of humanity

These family stewards quickly saw through Lu Ye's intentions.

If there is only one item, there must be more than one family interested in it. However, at this juncture, the major families will not scramble for a treasure that will only be useful for a long time in the future, so business will be difficult to do.

But if there are three items, the situation will be different. If Lu Ye sells three items at the same time, he may suffer a loss, but he can raise a large number of Dao fish in a short period of time.

"Fellow Daoist Lu, could you allow us to discuss something?" Manager Liu asked inquiringly.

"Please do as you please!" Lu Ye gestured with his hand.

A dozen or so managers immediately began to communicate with each other through telepathy. Their eyes exchanged with each other, some nodded, some shook their heads, and it seemed that there were quite a few disagreements.

"Aren't you afraid that they will join forces to lower the price?" Chu Li's voice reached Lu Ye's ears.

Lu Ye turned his head to look, but saw that the commander had an unmoved expression, facing outside the island with a serious look in his eyes.

He couldn't help but smile and sent a message: "If you ask for help from others, you will have to pay a price."

The price will definitely be lowered, but Lu Ye has just arrived and there is no other way except to use this method to raise Dao fish.

“You’re quite open-minded.” Chu Li snorted.

It was obvious that the managers took a lot of effort to reach a consensus. After a full stick of incense, most of the managers said goodbye and left after saying goodbye to Chu Li. Only three people, led by Manager Liu, stayed.

Manager Liu looked at Lu Ye and said, "Daoist Lu, we have just discussed that these three treasures can be purchased by our three families. Each piece is priced at 1.8 million Daoyu. What do you think?"

Lu Ye pondered in silence.

To be honest, he didn't know the prices in the Source Realm, nor how much an elemental treasure would normally be worth, but one million eight hundred thousand was undoubtedly too low.

In the inner world, you can't buy a treasure even with millions, let alone more than one million. In the inner world, treasures are things that are priceless.

At the beginning, Lu Ye wanted Qin Feng to help him purchase the treasures in the battlefield, but even Qin Feng had no way to do it. This shows his ability.

"Let's round it up. Your three families don't need this little bit of fish. This business is profitable enough!"

While Lu Ye was still thinking, Chu Li's voice came from the side.

Upon hearing this, Manager Liu exchanged a glance with the other two, then simply nodded and said, "Since Commander Chu has said so, let's round it up! What do you think, Fellow Daoist Lu?"

Lu Ye nodded and said, "Yes!"

To make a round number, that would be two million each, and three treasures worth six million Dao fish, which would be more than enough for him to practice the secret method of inner world to the seventh level of perfection.

A plan in his mind could be put into practice.

Although this business is definitely a loss-making one, the three treasures are trophies themselves, captured after killing the enemy. Rather than keeping them to rot, it is better to sell some Taoist fish as an emergency measure.

No matter what kind of treasure it is, if it can play its due role, it is a real treasure, otherwise it is just garbage.

"Then fellow Taoist, please wait for a moment. We will ask the family to collect some Taoist fish and send them over." When Manager Liu saw that Lu Ye agreed, he also smiled.

While waiting, the three managers seemed to be getting close to Lu Ye and talked a lot.

After all, it is rare to find a cultivator who can obtain three treasures as trophies in the entire Source Realm. Whether this is a reflection of luck or strength, it is worthy for the families behind them to make friends.

Not to mention, Chu Li is on good terms with him.

Lu Ye also wanted to communicate more with them, and they were chatting and laughing for a while.

Not long after, cultivators from each of the three families delivered the Taoist fish. After Lu Ye finished counting them, Manager Liu and the other two took their favorite treasures and said goodbye and left.

Lu Ye took out a storage ring, took out 200,000 fish and handed them to Chu Li.

Chu Li tilted his head and looked over, smiling: "What's this for?"

Lu Ye said: "This matter went so smoothly, thanks to Brother Chu, I would like to express my gratitude with a small token of my appreciation." Chu Li's words enabled him to harvest an extra 600,000 fish, and he also helped to make the connections. Now that the matter is done, of course Lu Ye has to express his gratitude. Moreover, the plan he wants to implement later may still need Chu Li's approval, so it is natural to have a good relationship with him.

After all, Chu Li is currently his superior.

Chu Li raised his hand and pushed it away: "I introduced such a good business to them, they will pay tribute to you in the future, as long as you feel that you are not at a disadvantage."

"Other people's things are other people's things, and mine is mine. Brother Chu, please don't refuse." Having said this, he grabbed Chu Li's hand and stuffed the storage ring into his hand.

Chu Li smiled and nodded at him: "You are quite generous, so I won't be polite to you."

No one complains about having too many Taoist fish. Since Lu Ye insisted on thanking him, it would be unkind for him to refuse. He was also curious about and respected Lu Ye. With a great war imminent, he certainly did not want to have any rift with such a strong man under his command.

"Brother Chu, the war has not started yet. It looks like it will take some time. I am new here. Is it okay to walk around and take a look?"

Chu Li frowned and said, "Although the war has not started yet, the entire Changyun Island is on defense. Unless it is urgent, everyone must stay at their own defense line to prepare for the war and are not allowed to move around at will."

Lu Ye was a little disappointed when he heard this. If that was the case, then his plan would be difficult to implement.

Seeing him like this, Chu Li said again: "How about this, you wait for a moment."

Having said this, he took out the musical note and sent out a message.

Upon seeing this, Lu Ye's brows immediately raised, knowing that the 200,000 fish he had just sent had played a role. If it weren't for those 200,000 fish, Chu Li would definitely not have bothered with this matter.

After waiting for a while, a figure flew over, came in front of Chu Li, clasped his fists and saluted: "Commander Chu, this is the inspection order!"

Chu Li took it and the monk flew away again immediately.

Chu Li turned around and handed the so-called inspection order to Lu Ye: "I have requested an inspection order from the island owner. With this order, you will be the wartime inspector, responsible for inspecting Changyun Island and monitoring the defense lines for loopholes and negligence."

Lu Ye was delighted when he heard this and took the inspection order happily: "Thank you, Brother Chu."

Chu Li said: "You are not familiar with this island, so just walk around and take a look. Don't interfere with the situation of the defense lines at will. There will be other inspectors responsible for supervision."

"I saved it." Lu Ye nodded.

“Go ahead.” Chu Li waved his hand.

Lu Ye immediately hung the inspection order in a conspicuous place around his waist and rushed in one direction.

After a while, he found an uninhabited place on the island and sat down cross-legged.

At present, all the cultivators in Changyun Island who are capable of fighting are basically gathered at the edge of the island, and those cultivators who do not have much fighting power are placed in the inner island, so such a remote and uninhabited place is still easy to find.

After making sure that there was no one around, Lu Ye immediately took out a large number of Taoist fish, spread them around him, and then activated the power of the talent tree to begin devouring them.

Invisible roots spread out and penetrated into the fish. Pieces of the fish were visibly turned into powder.

After the talent tree transformed again, his efficiency in daily practice and swallowing the Dao fish has been greatly improved compared to before. So the scene of Lu Ye swallowing the Dao fish at this moment is like a large piece of snow melting beside him under the high temperature.

If other people saw this bizarre scene, they would probably be shocked.

No cultivator has ever been able to refine the Dao Fish so quickly.

There was not much Dao Power left in the talent tree. After the previous practice, Lu Ye only had less than 100,000 Dao Power left. After a series of battles, only tens of thousands of Dao Power were left.

At the moment, the reserves of Tao power are increasing at a very fast rate. The most obvious sign is that the large patches of golden light on the talent tree are becoming more and more dazzling and more and more intense.

Two hundred thousand, five hundred thousand, one million...

Before the transformation, the talent tree's maximum reserve of spiritual power was one million, but now this limit has undoubtedly been broken.

Two million...

three million……

Until tens of millions!

Lu Ye still hadn't noticed any signs that the Dao Power reserve of his talent tree was approaching saturation, which undoubtedly meant that tens of millions of Dao Power was not the limit!
But it should be enough for a short period of time. Relatively speaking, what consumes the most of his energy right now is undoubtedly the practice of the secret arts of inner world.

The addition of each Dao Mark consumes tens of thousands of Dao Powers.

The entire talent tree at this moment looked like a ball of golden light, or a burning golden flame. Even the three fruits on the tree were reflected in gold.

Lu Ye stood up slowly, divided his mind, and while carving the Dao marks in the inner world, he flew towards the edge of the island.

A moment later, he arrived at a defense line on the edge of the island. The monk in charge there saw him coming and just glanced at his waist. After confirming his identity as an inspector, he ignored him.

There is more than one wartime inspector named Lu Ye. There are about twenty people with this status in the entire Changyun Island. These inspectors will move around and investigate the situation at each defense line, so the monks are not surprised by Lu Ye's arrival.

But soon, something happened that puzzled them.

When other inspectors arrive here, they will check their defense arrangements and find out the gaps. If anyone is lazy or slack, they will be reprimanded and punished.

Lu Ye ignored all this, but stared outside the island and slowly drew out the Panshan Knife from his waist.

Under the puzzled gazes of many monks, he suddenly swung his sword forward. The huge sword light was like a crescent moon, sweeping across and directly penetrating the island's protective formation and slamming into the blood river surrounding the island.

A protective formation is always used to defend against the outside, not the inside.

The attack from outside will be blocked by the solid light curtain, but the attack from inside will not be affected at all. This is the common feature of all defensive formations. Only in this way can the many formations arranged on the island play a role in resisting the enemy.

But in the absence of any enemy, no one is willing to waste their energy on such a thankless task.

The blood river was surging, and many enemies were hiding in it, so such an attack would have no effect.

But after Lu Ye slashed with his sword, the sword light continued. (End of this chapter)
