Chapter 908

"Furthermore, from a certain perspective, I did not lie to them; it is simply that they did not press for more details."

"Besides, if this matter succeeds, looking across the entire Shushan, I will be the most elite prodigy..."

"As long as it is beneficial to Shushan, the Sect Master will not hold anyone accountable."

Beidou shook her head.

"Do as you please. In any case, after this, the favor I owe you will be repaid. Don't come to me with such dangerous matters in the future."

"Dangerous? What is dangerous about it? Moreover, even if it were truly dangerous, it wouldn't be dangerous for you."

Ningguang’s eyes flickered, and she said calmly:

"At this point, can you still not see it? Although cultivators go against the heavens, talent is indeed what constrains the upper limits of a practitioner."

"If one wishes to reach the summit of the myriad worlds, top-grade spiritual roots, special constitutions, and even divine bodies are not enough."

"Since we have embarked on the path of cultivation, what a pity it would be not to charge toward the highest peak of Taiyi?"

Yelan shook her head helplessly.

"You certainly dare to dream..."

"If I didn't dare, I wouldn't be who I am today."

Ningguang pursed her lips into a smile, waved her hand, and said:

"In short, this matter is settled. Afterward, I will trouble you both to keep an eye on things for me. The remuneration I promised you will not be lacking."

The two remained silent, simply sitting by the long table, quietly sipping tea.

Meanwhile, Ruan Mei and Kafka, having left Ningguang’s cave dwelling, exchanged a glance.

"Do you truly believe she told us everything?"

Kafka said with a smile:

"As the master of the Jade Chamber, who controls the largest industry in the Shushan world, if she truly dared to open her heart to us, she would not have reached where she is today."

Ruan Mei nodded slightly.

"I understand, but... what does that have to do with us?"

"She has what she wants, and we have what we need right now."

"It is a mutually agreeable transaction; there is no need to know every single detail."

932. The Interastral Peace Corporation Enters the Myriad Worlds

As the Star Rail universe joined Shushan, they were constantly familiarizing themselves with the various aspects of cultivation.

The exploration of the Nine Nether Secret Realm three months later also became a new direction and phase for Shushan's development.

The undercurrents of competition hidden within Shushan became increasingly vigorous.

On the surface, the Shushan world became more and more prosperous.

First, after the Corporation recognized the situation, the corporate representatives, led by Aventurine and others, decisively paid a visit to Ningguang.

By combining the Corporation's various industries with the business of artificial defective spirit stones, they became a large cross-boundary group under the Jade Chamber.

However, the Corporation's business could not truly take off in the Shushan world.

After all, as the top-tier cultivation world, the scraps the Corporation could offer were simply too pitiful.

Never mind cultivators; even the martial artists of the Shushan world might not look twice at them.

However, as the largest shareholder of the Corporation, Ningguang did not wish to see such a behemoth of a company cowering in a single world.

Coupled with her long-standing plans, the next day, Ningguang had her subordinate Baiwen act as a go-between, allowing the Corporation's people to meet with the Five Spirit Clans.

From then on, the Corporation's tentacles reached out toward the many minor thousand worlds and small worlds under the Shushan world's jurisdiction.

A cross-boundary group finally began to march toward the development of the Shushan myriad worlds.

First, they established branches in the primary worlds chosen by the Five Spirit Clans.

The Great Jean minor thousand world of the Peng Bird clan.

At this moment, in Xianyang City, which had expanded to accommodate hundreds of millions of residents, near the Imperial Palace.

Ying Zheng, who had been in seclusion for a long time, led his ministers out of seclusion, while Fusu followed behind with his own team.

At this time, Ying Zheng was chatting and laughing with someone dressed in a peculiar style, clearly not from the Great Jean world.

Seeing this, Fan Xian, who was behind Fusu, was somewhat puzzled and leaned toward Fusu, whispering:

"Young Master, who is that person speaking with His Majesty..."

Fusu gave Fan Xian a look and lowered his voice:

"Use sound transmission, don't speak aloud."

Having said that, Fusu quietly pointed to the sky.

"I heard from Father that they are people from above..."

"Above? The Primordial Realm?"

Fan Xian was somewhat puzzled.

"Even higher, the one at the very top..."

Suddenly, Fan Xian and Chen Pingping, who was beside him, felt a chill in their hearts.

"The Shushan world?"

Fusu nodded slightly.

"But... didn't that Supreme Being say that people from the upper realm are not allowed to descend to the lower realms at will?"

Fan Xian looked at Fusu in a daze, and the latter shook his head.

"That rule restricts the myriad spirits of Shushan and the myriad spirits of the myriad worlds; Shushan is not included in that list..."

"Shushan... are those people from Shushan?"

Chen Pingping was somewhat surprised, and Fusu said helplessly:

"Not exactly... or rather, one cannot say they are entirely not."

"The other party has a massive background. In the Shushan world, there is a monopolistic commercial association called the Jade Chamber, and their industries monopolize all economic activities in the Shushan world."

"The master of the Jade Chamber is Ningguang, legendary as one of the earliest core disciples of Shushan and a favorite of that Supreme Being."

"The Jade Chamber's influence is vast; even the Five Spirit Clans are terrified when they see them."

"It is rumored that the actual beneficiaries behind the Jade Chamber range from the Shushan Outer Sect Elder Council up to the various heads and elders of Shushan."

"Even the Sect Master's most beloved direct disciple, the legendary little princess of Shushan who is below one person but above ten thousand, the future Sect Master, is a beneficiary among them."

"There are even rumors that the two Sect Master’s wives also hold shares in it."

"Therefore, the Jade Chamber's influence is immense; even an ordinary employee within it is someone the Five Spirit Clans dare not provoke."

Hearing this, Fan Xian and the others widened their eyes in disbelief.

"No way... such a behemoth sent people to us? What for!"

"They are not direct descendants of the Jade Chamber; otherwise, let alone Father, even our Ancestor would have to personally accompany them."

Fusu shook his head and said softly:

"It is said that they are people from the Interastral Peace Corporation, a branch that recently joined the Jade Chamber system."

"The Jade Chamber mainly does business in the cultivation world; they don't look down upon worlds other than the Shushan world."

"But the Shushan myriad worlds are now as numerous as the sands of the Ganges, and naturally, they will not let go of this profit."

"Thus, the Interastral Peace Corporation, perhaps having just entered the Jade Chamber system and being desperate to achieve results, took the initiative to take on the work and pilot it in the myriad worlds."

"The person who came to us this time is also a supervisor from the Interastral Peace Corporation who will be stationed here in the future."

"Although they are not a cultivator, they are a powerhouse at the peak of Shattering the Void. Father received the Ancestor's order to come and receive them, accompanying them to select a site to build the Corporation's branch."

937. The Corporation's Plan, Myriad World Communication

Shushan.

The Interastral Peace Corporation entering the myriad worlds is not considered an earth-shattering event for the Jade Chamber.

For the people of Shushan, it is even less so.

In fact, as Shushan developed, the myriad worlds under its jurisdiction became increasingly prosperous and their numbers surged. Naturally, Ningguang and the others could not wait until the people of the Star Rail universe joined Shushan to discuss this matter.

The Jade Chamber is now very large, possessing an extremely vast chain of interests, which also symbolizes that the Jade Chamber must possess sufficiently massive revenue to maintain it.

Relying solely on the Shushan world, although they earn a lot, but cultivation, after all, who would complain about having more resources?

Long before the Interastral Peace Corporation, many corporate groups had already acted as subordinate institutions of the Jade Chamber, extending their tentacles into the myriad worlds.

However, these forces were calculated on a world-by-world basis.

For example, after Diluc joined Shushan, he brought his Dawn Winery and reached a cooperation with the Jade Chamber.
