Chapter 1064: News that was Kept From the Hidden Moon Pavilion
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Lin Yuan’s words essentially saved Ji Feng.
Ji Feng was lost for words, but Lin Yuan went on to say, “In order to solve your problem, your body needs to become stronger, and you need to ensure that your soul remains alert for some time. This is the only way to chase it out of your body while still ensuring your survival. I’ll need to use a lot of my
resources and an important kind of power to heal you. Hence, before I start treating you, I’ll need to be sure of your loyalty and know what your secret is.”
Lin Yuan spoke loudly and sternly.
He took out a bottle of Silver Stamen Gold l.u.s.ter Ca.s.sia nectar. It was the best thing to raise the quality of Ji Feng’s body to its peak.
Lin Yuan also needed to use a large amount of Cold Snow Pine resin to nourish Ji Feng’s soul and keep it from collapsing due to pain.
Endless Summer also needed to use its Enlightenment World to wake up Ji Feng’s mind and spirit.
It was necessary for all three factors to be present, and each factor also represented a mountain of wealth.
None of these factors were easily accessible.
Additionally, Lin Yuan needed to use a large amount of faith power.
He was not unwilling to do good deeds and save others.
In fact, he often helped people out of sticky situations.
However, previously, he had not needed to put in much effort to help those people.
He was not an altruist. If he could not obtain Ji Feng’s loyalty and leam his secrets, all of Lin Yuan’s efforts and resources would go down the drain.
Lin Yuan had intended to wait for Ji Feng to think it over before giving an answer. However, the moment Ji Feng heard what Lin Yuan said, he did not hesitate to summon his Willpower Rune and swear to become Lin Yuan’s servant.
Ji Feng was well-aware of his situation. He was a pauper and could not offer anything other than his loyalty.
He used to put his freedom above all else but had been willing to swear three years of labor to Lin Yuan because he did not expect that Lin Yuan could cure him.
However, if Lin Yuan could truly cure him, he was even willing to be Lin Yuan’s servant for life.
After his short interaction with Lin Yuan, Ji Feng felt that Lin Yuan would stop him from doing ‘that’. There was even a chance that Lin Yuan would help him as well.
Ji Feng was going to say that he needed to get his revenge and explain how he had landed in such a state.
Now that he had sworn on his Willpower Rune, Ji Feng naturally addressed Lin Yuan as ‘Young Master.
“Young Master, have you heard of the Whale Ocean Commerce?”
Lin Yuan immediately knitted his brow.
Wen Yu had mentioned Whale Ocean Commerce and Ten Thousand Source Hall to him when they were on their way to the Creation Master a.s.sociation.
This was a serious matter as it concerned one of the top three factions in the Radiance Federation.
Could the strange plant in Ji Feng’s body be connected to the Whale Ocean Commerce?
Lin Yuan waited for Ji Feng to continue explaining instead of expressing his own opinion.
“Of course, I’ve heard of the Whale Ocean Commerce. Go on explaining.”
Ji Feng’s expression darkened as he said, “Then do you know how they became one of the top three factions?”
Lin Yuan shook his head. He was swamped with tasks every day. Although he had knowledge of the various top factions, he did not know anything about Whale Ocean Commerce’s specific history.
Lin Yuan tumed to look at Wen Yu questioningly, and she immediately said, “18 years ago, three mid-tier top factions decided to work together. The three factions were Ten Thousand Flags Trading, Sea Sky Nurture, and the Source Item Chamber of Commerce. The three united to form the Whale Ocean
Commerce.
“Ten Thousand Flags Trading controlled the sea trading routes and had Island Whales. Sea Sky Nurture’s role was Creation Masters. After they joined the Whale Ocean Commerce, they used all their Creation Master resources to nurture the Island Whales. Ten Thousand Flags Trading and Sea Sky Nurture
were close. Hence, there was a wall between them and the Source Item Chamber of Commerce.
“Apparently, the Ten Thousand Source Hall was started by the Source Item Chamber of Commerce a decade ago. Ever since the Whale Ocean Commerce was formed, they have been represented by Ten Thousand Flags Trading. It’s also said that Sea Sky Nurture often leaves for business and hasn’t made a
public appearance in close to a decade.”
As low-profile as the Whale Ocean Commerce was, they were still able to edge out Cage of Brahma Insects and Rhine Lifeform.
Even the people from Ten Thousand Flags Trading, who represented the Whale Ocean Commerce, only kept to themselves and focused on managing their wealth.
Other than when they created the Ten Thousand Source Hall a decade ago, there had been no more news regarding the Whale Ocean Commerce.
Lin Yuan nodded in acknowledgment.
After hearing Wen Yu’s explanation, Ji Feng’s hatred and sorrow intensified.
He was silent for a moment before saying, “Everyone in Sea Sky Nurture is dead. I only survived accidentally.”
Ji Feng’s words were like a bomb that exploded around Lin Yuan, Wen Yu, and Endless Summer.
Wen Yu furrowed her brow as this matter was not stated in the Hidden Moon Pavilion at all.
The Hidden Moon Pavilion always actively gathered information and invested in a large workforce to ensure that the information collected was comprehensive.
The Radiant Moon Palace also had staff members dedicated to collecting information.
The information about the various factions was reported by themselves on a yearly basis.
Thus, the Whale Ocean Commerce had neglected to report this internal conflict for a decade.
A thought struck Wen Yu, and she asked Ji Feng, “Your surname is Ji. I remember that Sea Sky Nurture’s direct descendants also have the surname Ji.”
Ji Feng nodded sadly.
“Yes. If Sea Sky Nurture was still around, I would be their Young Leader now.”
