Catastrophic necromancer

Chapter 3238: My Trustworthiness is Unmatched Below the Great Dao

Although the insect race is very closed off, the Lufen Chamber of Commerce still has outposts within their territory. After all, the insect race still needs some resources, and the Lufen Chamber of Commerce is their best choice.

Lu Shudao asked with confusion, "Indeed we do. Does Mr. Lin want to go to the insect race?"

Lin Moyu shook his head, "Can you ask if the insect race has had any recent movements?"

Lu Shudao was suddenly startled, "Mr. Lin means to say, the insect race might take advantage of the dragon race’s vulnerability to attack their homeland?"

Lin Moyu said, "That’s one possibility. Another possibility is that the insect race may have already allied with the Buddhist clan, preparing to deal with the dragon race together."

Lu Shudao thought for a moment and realized this was very possible.

He immediately said, "I’ll contact our people there right away to inquire about the situation."

Lu Shudao quickly sent out a message, needing some time to get a response.

As he thought, he said, "If that’s really the case, the dragon race will be in big trouble."

Lin Moyu said, "If so, the Buddhist clan would achieve multiple goals at once. Not only could they successfully establish a Dragon Congregation and obtain many secret techniques and treasures from the dragon race, but they could also divide up the dragon race’s territory with the insect race."

"In the worst case, only the Buddhist clan’s Dragon Congregation would remain on the Origin Continent, with no more independent dragon race."

"Even if the dragons above found out, they wouldn’t be able to do anything for now."

Lu Shudao felt Lin Moyu’s words made a lot of sense.

Lin Moyu actually had more to say. Once the Buddhist clan succeeds, they would gain a lot of destiny.

The Buddhist clan’s destiny was already not weak. If they added the dragon race’s destiny, perhaps that Three Lives Buddha Patriarch could use this to impact the true Great Dao realm.

If he really succeeded, then the Buddhist clan would have someone above too.

As for what the Great Dao world beyond the sky was like, Lin Moyu didn’t know and couldn’t judge.

Thinking further, Lin Moyu felt that if the Buddhist clan really did this, their ultimate goal would be for the Three Lives Buddha Patriarch to impact the Great Dao realm.

"If that’s the case, it probably won’t be easy for me to get Little Mei’s reincarnation treasure back from Yellow Eyebrow Ancient Buddha."

"I may have to fight a good battle."

"The hell fragment I want is also in Green Lamp Ancient Buddha’s hands. He’s one of the Three Lives Buddha Patriarch’s three lives, combining into a pseudo-Great Dao realm being."

"If what the Three Ancestors gave me can’t be exchanged for the hell fragment, I may have to fight too."

Lin Moyu thought a lot and felt his matters might be troublesome.

Compared to Little Mei’s reincarnation treasure, the hell fragment might be easier to obtain.

After all, the hell fragment couldn’t be carried around, and whether to give it or not wasn’t up to Green Lamp Ancient Buddha alone.

Lin Moyu asked, "Senior Lu, do you know if Yellow Eyebrow Ancient Buddha has a cloth bag?"

Lu Shudao thought for a moment, shook his head slightly, and looked at the Dao Venerables behind him, "Do you know?"

A Dao Venerable immediately responded, "The bag in Yellow Eyebrow’s hand is called the Buddha Seed Bag. It’s an extremely powerful magical treasure, probably above the seventh-level Dao Venerable realm."

"It’s said to have been passed down by Yellow Eyebrow’s teacher. It can absorb all things. Once absorbed, they’ll be influenced by the Buddha Seed Bag and develop Buddha nature. Given enough time, they’ll be converted."

Lin Moyu nodded, "Thank you for informing me."

At this time, Lu Shudao received a reply from the Chamber of Commerce personnel. His expression changed slightly, "Mr. Lin, you were right. The insect race has indeed been active recently. Their strongest insect queens have all mobilized, but it’s unclear where they’ve gone."

Lin Moyu said, "The insect race should be working with the Buddhist clan to trap and destroy the dragon race here."

Lin Moyu felt the insect race wouldn’t take advantage of the dragon race’s vulnerability to attack their clan territory, because there was no benefit in that.

Even if they conquered it, so what? As long as the dragon race’s fighting force remained, they couldn’t hold onto it.

The best method was to eliminate the dragon race’s fighting force.

The Buddhist clan used establishing a Dragon Congregation as an excuse to actively provoke conflict with the dragon race, attracting most of their forces. Then cooperating with the insect race, they would ultimately destroy them in the Western Paradise of Ultimate Bliss.

As long as their plan succeeded, the dragon race’s power would be greatly weakened.

Then the two races would join forces to attack the dragon race, dividing up their territory and seizing their destiny.

Lu Shudao had no reaction to this idea of the Buddhist clan’s.

In his view, the life or death of the dragon race didn’t actually have much impact on the Lufen Chamber of Commerce.

After all, the dragon race’s business accounted for a very small proportion in the Lufen Chamber of Commerce. He was just here to watch the excitement, with no intention of getting involved.

Lu Shudao thought Lin Moyu was also here to watch and asked with a smile, "What made Mr. Lin think of coming to the Western Continent?"

Lin Moyu said, "I originally planned to come find Green Lamp Ancient Buddha."

Suddenly, Lin Moyu’s expression changed as he thought of something.

He changed the subject, "Senior Lu, can you contact the Three Ancestors from here?"

Lu Shudao nodded, "Yes."

Lin Moyu said, "I’d like to speak privately with the Three Ancestors for a moment."

Lu Shudao had no questions and directly led Lin Moyu into the warship. In a room inside the warship, he activated a formation, then withdrew himself.

The formation operated, and after a while, the Three Ancestors’ voice came through, "Shudao, what matter do you have for this ancestor?"

Lin Moyu said, "Three Ancestors, it’s me."

The Three Ancestors’ tone changed, losing the previous majesty, "Oh it’s you, kid. What’s the matter?"

Lin Moyu quickly explained what was happening here, then asked, "Three Ancestors, what do you think?"

The Three Ancestors said, "I’m a merchant. I don’t act without profit."

The implication was that he wouldn’t do anything without any benefit. The Buddhist clan and dragon race fighting to the death was their own business, unrelated to him as a merchant.

No matter who won, he was only responsible for making money and doing business.

Lin Moyu of course understood what kind of person the Three Ancestors was. "I have a business proposition here. I wonder if the Three Ancestors are interested?"

The Three Ancestors said, "For me, there’s only unsuitable prices, no business that can’t be done."

Lin Moyu said, "Two things. First, relay the situation I just described truthfully to the new emperor of the Eastern Spirit Empire."

"Second, personally go to the dragon race. Not to deal with the insect race and Buddhist clan, but to keep an eye on the Netherworld race and the Hundred Herbs Alliance."

"If these two races try to make a move against the dragon race, please help block them. Whatever method you use to block them is fine, just don’t let them invade the dragon race."

After Lin Moyu finished speaking, the Three Ancestors fell silent.

He had said there was no business that couldn’t be done, only unsuitable prices.

Lin Moyu had already stated his requirements. Now it was up to the Three Ancestors to name his price.

After a moment, the Three Ancestors said in a low voice, "One ice-fire dao stone."

Lin Moyu agreed without hesitation, "Deal!"

The Three Ancestors exclaimed in surprise, "You’re not going to haggle?"

Lin Moyu said, "I think this price is very reasonable. No need to haggle."

The Three Ancestors immediately cried out in frustration, "It seems I quoted too low a price."

Lin Moyu smiled, "Actually it’s not low. Just to pass on a message and make a trip, this price is quite high. After all, the Netherworld race and Hundred Herbs Alliance may not necessarily act."

"And even if they do act, you only need to step in to block them, not necessarily fight."

"So this price isn’t low at all."

"You won’t go back on your word, will you?"

The Three Ancestors snorted, "My trustworthiness is unmatched below the Great Dao. Once I agree to a deal, I’ll do it even at a loss."
