“So, we need to think about what we should do next.”
Upon hearing this, Gongsun Yi and Du Yulin immediately regained their composure, their eyes becoming serious and their hearts filled with urgency.
Indeed.
If the Lunar Palace chooses to go to war with the Taixu Immortal Alliance, then forces like the Yunjian Sect might all take action concurrently.
At that point, they might not be able to withstand the pressure.
They needed to carefully consider their next moves, aiming to preserve their lives and find the Golden Cicada method.
The Yunjian Sect.
The inner sect’s main peak, the Hall of External Affairs.
Su Yu, Luo Qianyu, Yu Ke’er, Su Zhi, and Tie Mengzhu welcomed the arrival of Taoist Friend Shuhai. Apart from his first visit accompanied by Taoist Xiuyu, Taoist Friend Shuhai was alone in his subsequent visits.
Su Yu handed him a Qiankun Bag, saying, “Inside are this year’s talismans; seventy-five third-tier lower-grade illusion moon talismans, two hundred second-tier top-grade talismans, three hundred second-tier middle-grade talismans, and five hundred second-tier lower-grade ones.”
Taoist Friend Shuhai accepted the Qiankun Bag and checked its contents with his divine sense, a smile blooming on his face.
Taoist Friend Shuhai looked at Su Yu and said, “I must say, the power of your illusion moon talismans is truly remarkable. With them, my Lunar Palace can handle the threat from the Taixu Immortal Alliance with a lot more ease.”
With that, he took out another Qiankun Bag and handed it to Su Yu, saying, “Here are four thousand one hundred and fifty middle-grade spirit stones and materials for the talismans.”
Taoist Friend Shuhai looked at Su Yu with a touch of envy, “In just one year, you could earn over four thousand middle-grade spirit stones. To be honest, seeing you, I somewhat regret not learning the talisman way.”
Upon hearing this, Su Yu gave a bitter smile, “You don’t know how much resources I’ve put into these talismans.”
“At the auctions in Leiting Market, Lunar Dark Market, and at our Su Family Head’s wedding banquet, I put all our resources into these talismans.”
“Only then did I barely manage to improve the success rate of these talismans.”
“You’re only looking at the spirit stones I’ve earned, but you haven’t considered how much effort and sacrifice I’ve had to make for these talismans.”
Upon hearing Su Yu’s words, Taoist Friend Shuhai was taken aback before finally understanding.
Indeed!
Nothing was as easy as he’d thought!
He had a rough idea of the transactions Su Yu had mentioned and indeed Su Yu had invested a lot of resources.
At the time, even he had been terrified by the scale of it.
For a talisman crafter to improve the success rate of his talismans, had to invest heavily at the beginning, with most materials being consumed without guaranteeing outcomes.
Who knows how many resources one would have to burn through before seeing any returns?
The higher the tier of the craft, the more resources it consumed, like a bottomless pit.
Naturally, Taoist Friend Shuhai understood all this, but his head hadn’t been quick to catch up earlier and he hadn’t thought it through. He turned solemn and quickly apologized, “Please forgive me, Taoist Friend Su, I was momentarily irrational.”
After a brief chat,
Luo Qianyu turned to Taoist Friend Shuhai and asked, “Taoist Friend Shuhai, how is the relationship between the Lunar Palace and the Taixu Immortal Alliance lately?”
Taoist Friend Shuhai pondered for a moment before saying, “This past year, the Taixu Immortal Alliance has still been testing the Lunar Palace’s response. The only time the Taixu Immortal Alliance tried to seize a resource of the Lunar Palace, we launched a counteroffensive.”
“That battle cost the Taixu Immortal Alliance a Core Formation cultivator and nearly two hundred other cultivators.”
“This was the biggest loss for the Taixu Immortal Alliance since they started provoking us.”
“As for what the Taixu Immortal Alliance will do next, we still don’t know.”
Luo Qianyu furrowed her brows and asked, “So are you saying the Lunar Palace is just going to let the Taixu Immortal Alliance behave so audaciously?”
Taoist Friend Shuhai replied, “The Taixu Immortal Alliance can’t harm the Lunar Palace, but for cases like these, we can’t act impulsively. It’s better to carefully consider and cautiously deal with the situation.”
He looked at Luo Qianyu and said, “Just like with the Yunjian Sect. Isn’t the Red Alliance occupying the Golden Jade Fairy Gate ruins in Ba Yao Ridge? You chose not to act.”
“If you truly acted, the so-called Red Alliance would probably crumble in an instant under your control.”
Luo Qianyu didn’t bother to hide her intentions, “I’m waiting for the Lunar Palace to make a move.”
Taoist Friend Shuhai:
So, they were all thinking the same.
Facing a major power like the Taixu Immortal Alliance, with the potential threat of the Jiu Hun Demon Palace and Feng Luo Mansion in the cultivation world, the Lunar Palace could hardly trigger a conflict recklessly.
Of course, they would need to be cautious and thoughtful.
For now, everyone was waiting for the right opportunity.
The Lunar Palace was, the Yunjian Sect was, and probably the same for other major forces in Lunar City, such as Bai Yue Immortal City.
Taoist Friend Shuhai hesitated for a moment, then slowly shook his head, “Lunar Palace, it’s not my place to decide.”
Not long after,
Taoist Friend Shuhai took the talismans and quietly left.
After Taoist Friend Shuhai left, Su Yu’s face darkened slightly, and he frowned, “The Lunar Palace has started using the illusion moon talismans against the Taixu Immortal Alliance. Henceforth, we all need to be cautious.”
He turned to Su Zhi and said, “Sister, send a message to our clan and ask them to prepare for any unexpected incidents or changes.”
His words were met with the attentive gazes of Luo Qianyu, Yu Ke’er, Su Zhi, and Tie Mengzhu.
Su Zhi’s face changed slightly, “Are you worried that the Taixu Immortal Alliance will take notice of you?”
