Chapter 1248: Chapter 1245: Sothing Feels Off
Three months later, Southern Domain, at the Transmission Channel entrance within the Lingxiao Sect’s territory.
The marketplace transaction day, scheduled once every five years with Earth, has arrived once again.
Shang Daocheng, Situ Yao, and Huang Yuankui have been stationed here for five years.
Five years in the Southern Domain is equivalent to fifteen years on Earth.
Originally, only Shang Daocheng, a Core Formation Master, was stationed here. But ever since Lingxiao Sect established a deep cooperation with Earth, they have stationed Situ Yao and Huang Yuankui here to ensure the secrecy of Earth’s supply of Genetic Liquid dicine doesn’t leak.
With these three Core Formation Masters from Lingxiao Sect stationed here, unless there are urgent matters, no one is usually allowed to travel between the Southern Domain and Earth.
"Hai Mo, Yan Wei, pay respects to the three martial uncles and martial aunts."
Hai Mo and Yan Wei, responsible for coordinating with Yang Fei, once again beca the key figures in this transaction with the Earth Cultivation World. The two led more than ten Lingxiao Sect disciples here and respectfully saluted the elders stationed here.
Shang Daocheng and the others gave them a quick glance without saying much.
Shortly after, the teams from the Fla Moon Sect, Great Dao Sect, Sunset Island Zhong Family, Fengtai Feng Family, and Qingchuan He Family arrived one after another.
Shang Daocheng and his companions glanced over the disciples of these sects and families, suddenly showing a slight change in expression.
This ti, the Fla Moon Sect was led by Li Yang Fairy and her disciples.
Also, Ying Wujiu from the Great Dao Sect was present.
In the last two transactions on Earth, these two sects didn’t send Core Formation Masters as escorts. Why have Li Yang and Ying Wujiu appeared again this ti?
The most important thing is that the number of disciples from the Fla Moon Sect and Great Dao Sect going to Earth has increased significantly, especially many Foundation Establishnt Stage disciples.
Because of the secrecy of the Genetic Liquid dicine, the three Core Formation Masters from Lingxiao Sect were quite cautious about this sudden abnormal situation from the Fla Moon Sect and Great Dao Sect.
Shang Daocheng greeted Li Yang and Ying Wujiu, then glanced at the disciples behind them, asking, "Fellow Daoists, are all these disciples behind you heading to Earth?"
Li Yang replied, "Yes, they heard about the recent Spiritual Energy Revival on Earth. Coupled with the fact that our three disciples from the Fla Moon Sect who stayed on Earth have returned to attempt the Core Formation Realm, these disciples hope to seek opportunities there too."
Shang Daocheng glanced at the dozen or so disciples from the Fla Moon Sect behind Li Yang. Among them, there were thirteen Foundation Establishnt Stage disciples, most of whom were at the Peak of Late-stage Foundation Establishnt.
The situation was similar for Ying Wujiu; behind him were eleven Foundation Establishnt Stage disciples, seven of them at the Late-stage Foundation Establishnt, and the other four at the Peak of Middle-stage Foundation Establishnt.
Among the disciples of the other three families, the number of Foundation Establishnt Stage disciples was also several tis more than those who went for the marketplace transactions on Earth the last two tis. Together, the three families had as many as twelve disciples.
In comparison, the Lingxiao Sect only had five Foundation Establishnt Stage disciples heading to Earth this ti, mostly at the Foundation Establishnt Early Stage.
Shang Daocheng, Situ Yao, and Huang Yuankui looked serious, sensing that sothing was amiss.
Huang Yuankui couldn’t help but say, "Everyone, our Southern Domain has already achieved a peaceful consensus with Earth, coexisting quite harmoniously. From the previous two transactions and the continuous tribute of top-grade spirit stones from Earth over the years, it is essential for us to maintain peace between the two realms."
Li Yang snorted lightly, saying, "Huang Yuankui, what do you an by this? In what way are we disrupting the peace between the Southern Domain and Earth?"
Ying Wujiu chuckled, nodding, "Indeed, Fellow Daoist Huang, don’t be nervous. Both Li Yang Fairy and I have co personally this ti to explain this matter face-to-face to the three of you.
After the five Foundation Establishnt Stage cultivators we left on Earth last ti returned, they all gained the qualification to attempt the Core Formation. Hence, all our families believe that allowing Foundation Establishnt Stage disciples to remain on Earth for cultivation and training might expedite their progress and benefit their Core Formation prospects. Therefore, these disciples with potential for Core Formation from our sects want to spend so ti on Earth."
They won’t be heading to White Jade City on Earth, so Yang Fei likely won’t even see them. They’ve also been reminded not to cause trouble on Earth under any circumstances, much less disrupt the two realms’ harmony."
The three Core Formation Masters of the Lingxiao Sect fell silent after hearing Ying Wujiu’s explanation.
Li Yang, seeing their noncommittal expressions, beca sowhat angry: "Hey, both sides agreed initially on free travel. Now, our disciples want to go for training, and the other side of Earth won’t have objections. Yet, you at the Lingxiao Sect are raising nurous questions. Are you intending to prevent our families’ disciples from training on Earth? Earth’s Plane World isn’t exclusively owned by the Lingxiao Sect; just because the passage is within your sect’s territory doesn’t make Earth’s space your private property, does it?"
Situ Yao snorted, "Li Yang, are you trying to sow discord between the Lingxiao Sect and the other factions with those words?"
Li Yang coldly replied, "I’m rely speaking the truth."
Ying Wujiu quickly attempted to diate, chuckling, "Hahaha, let’s not argue, fellow Daoists. Harmony brings wealth."
He looked at Shang Daocheng and asked, "Taoist Shang, are our families’ disciples not allowed to go to Earth?"
Shang Daocheng felt sowhat conflicted.
Instinctively, he felt it was odd for several families to suddenly send thirty-six or seven Foundation Establishnt Stage disciples to Earth, but he lacked any evidence that they would cause trouble once they got there.
According to the rules, he indeed couldn’t prohibit these people from traveling to Earth.
But he was genuinely worried that so many Foundation Establishnt Stage cultivators might cause trouble once they arrived on Earth.
If the existing peace between the two realms is destroyed, and the Lingxiao Sect loses its supply of Genetic Liquid dicine, the Sect Leader would surely hold him accountable.
As he hesitated, preparing to consult the Sect Leader using a Communication Talisman, he heard Li Yang say, "To my knowledge, Earth now has dozens of Foundation Establishnt Stage cultivators who have the ho advantage, along with a formidable Defense Array and an Ancient Divine Beast on guard. Even if our disciples wanted to confront them, they probably wouldn’t benefit much, would they? Moreover, doesn’t the Lingxiao Sect have quite a few disciples heading there too? Plus, the Lingxiao Sect has six Foundation Establishnt Stage disciples who have long resided on Earth. So, your disciples can train and practice there, but ours can’t?"
Shang Daocheng was left speechless.
After pondering for a mont, he nodded, "Master Li Yang has a point. Our duty in guarding this place is to ensure smooth interactions between the two realms. Naturally, we beco suspicious when you suddenly decide to send so many top-grade Foundation Establishnt Stage disciples to Earth. But you are right; Earth’s strength is quite formidable now, and if your people genuinely intend to cause trouble, they likely won’t gain any advantage. Also, let
be clear: if they disrupt the peace and harmony we’ve established, the Lingxiao Sect will demand a larger share of the spirit stone tribute from Earth in the future."
Upon hearing this, Li Yang smiled and said, "Rest assured, they’re just going there for training and won’t disrupt the peace between the two realms."
Ying Wujiu also addressed the disciples of the Great Dao Sect behind him, "Did you all hear that? Once you reach Earth, do not engage in conflict with the Earth cultivators, understood?"
"Yes! Disciples shall not dare!"
Shang Daocheng waved his hand and said, "Go ahead."
Li Yang and Ying Wujiu were inwardly ecstatic but maintained a calm deanor outwardly.
Lingxiao Sect had been enjoying the unique benefits for years, and now it was ti to share Earth’s true secrets with other factions from the Southern Domain.
