Chapter 3727: Cooperation Beyond the Realm

"I should think about how to sense that single strand of qi luck!"

Ye Liuyun immediately stopped worrying about those bothersome matters and began pondering how to see that qi luck.

He suddenly remembered that Long Nv's black pupils could see energy, and promptly summoned her. He didn't rush to tell Long Nv what was inside; he just let her look.

Sure enough, Long Nv could also see the energy within the crystal stone of the stele.

"I think this is a kind of energy inside the human body. It's just that I don't know what it is; some people have a lot of it, some have little," Long Nv told Ye Liuyun.

In fact, Long Nv had been able to see this kind of energy for a long time, but she didn't know what it was, and had become accustomed to it, no longer finding it strange.

She had previously thought it was an energy that could affect one's temperament. People with abundant such energy generally have a better aura than ordinary folks. Beyond that, she hadn't noticed any other effects.

"What about me?" Ye Liuyun quickly pointed at himself.

"You have more of that energy inside you!" Long Nv said she could tell without even looking.

"Is it flowing inside my body?" Ye Liuyun asked Long Nv again.

"It flows, permeating the whole body, like a mist inside you," Long Nv told Ye Liuyun.

Ye Liuyun thought for a moment, extracted a strand from the crystal stone, and handed it to Long Nv, "Absorb a bit and try it, see what it feels like."

"Alright! But what is this?" Long Nv first agreed, then asked Ye Liuyun.

"It's qi luck!" Ye Liuyun told Long Nv, also gesturing for her to sit down and feel quietly.

Long Nv sat down to sense for a while, but felt nothing, thinking it had already been refined by herself. After scanning her own body with her eyes, she searched carefully for a long time before finally locating the strand of qi luck she had just absorbed.

That strand of qi luck was at her dantian, being enveloped by her own qi luck and undergoing refinement,

After watching for a while, she told Ye Liuyun, "It's at the dantian. I don't need to control it; it will be wrapped and refined by the qi luck already in my body. Though it's just a single thread, it still seems hard to refine, perhaps it will take some time!"

"Alright, take your time refining it, and see if you can feel its refinement process without using your eyes!" Ye Liuyun let Long Nv sit quietly, handing her this torturous task.

But suddenly, his Transmission Talisman vibrated again. It was a message from Li Chengfeng: "The Dream Clan Leader says it's not about past matters, but about cooperation beyond the realm."

"Cooperation beyond the realm?"

Ye Liuyun was puzzled, not knowing what the Dream Clan was up to.

"I'm busy now; if he wants to see me, let him come to my camp to find me!"

Ye Liuyun also wanted to see what purpose the Dream Clan's persistent pursuit served. If they intended to lure him out and set a trap, he wouldn't mind showing them a bit of his colors.

To his surprise, before Long Nv finished refining that strand, Yu Xiaofeng in the camp informed him that Meng Cangxuan had arrived.

"Huh? Coming over so quickly?" He hadn't expected the Dream Clan to be so eager.

"Since they're here, let's meet. I'd like to see what they actually want!" Ye Liuyun agreed to the meeting, having Yu Xiaofeng escort them to his residence.

His camp tent was set up very simply, with only a few floor cushions. Since he would immediately retreat into his Space World upon returning, he never stayed outside, so there was essentially no decoration.

Thus, when Meng Cangxuan and Meng Fei entered, they were stunned. They hadn't expected such a prominent figure to have such a humble dwelling.

Seeing their expressions, Ye Liuyun awkwardly explained, "I don't often stay in the camp, and I'm usually training, so I didn't bother to arrange anything. Please excuse me, just sit wherever you like!"

"Alright, alright!" Meng Cangxuan quickly agreed, leading Meng Fei to sit on the cushions.

After they were seated, Ye Liuyun also proactively asked, "Dream

Clan Leader, why are you so eager to find me? Is there something urgent?"

Meng Cangxuan saw that he had no airs and spoke straightforwardly, and said directly, "Our Dream Clan was previously arrogant and offended Young Master Ye.

Although we were spared by Young Master Ye's mercy and he didn't strike at our Ye family, I must first, on behalf of the Dream Clan, apologize to Young Master Ye! At the same time, we promise never to be enemies with Young Master Ye in the future!"

Ye Liuyun saw his attitude was good and said pleasantly, "The matter is over, no need to bring it up again. Since you've made a promise, we will wait and see.

However, these matters alone aren't enough to make the Dream Clan Leader travel so far...

Meng Cangxuan also cooperated, saying, "Young Master Ye is indeed clever. Since you asked, I'll be direct."

He saw that Ye Liuyun spoke directly and guessed he didn't like beating around the bush.

"The business association our Dream Clan added operates in this star system only sparingly, accounting for less than ten percent of our family's trade; ninety percent of our business is outside the realm, spread across eight star systems.

We've already witnessed Young Master Ye's abilities, so we wish to invite you to cooperate with us, jointly developing business in the out-of-realm market. Do you have any interest, Young Master Ye?"

Ye Liuyun was taken aback by his words, not expecting them to actually come to discuss cooperation, and that it was an out-of-realm business association.

But he also had some doubts: "Why does the Dream Clan Leader want to cooperate with me? What can I possibly help with? I know little about the out-of-realm situation; I'm just a Martial Cultivator from the Mortal Realm. Can I even catch the Dream Clan's attention?"

He asked very directly. Of course he wanted to explore the out-of-realm. If he could get some out-of-realm information from the Dream Clan in advance, that would be ideal.

But the Dream Clan didn't really know him; they had even tried to hunt him down before, so this sudden change also struck him as odd.

Seeing that Ye Liuyun didn't outright refuse, Meng Cangxuan vaguely sensed there might be a story.

"Young Master Ye, there are things you don't know: the martial cultivators in out-of-realm star systems vary widely in strength. Of the eight star systems we currently control, five have cultivators whose strength is comparable to or weaker than ours. But three have cultivators far stronger than us.

The distances between these systems are vast, making cargo transport between them under great strain. Even when we send strong escorts, we often encounter bandits in the starry sky.

However, with a large army escort, the situation changes. Basically, no bandit would dare to intercept a massive force. Even soldiers of the first or second Void Rank aren't ones bandits would easily provoke.

Our Dream Clan judges not by birth but by strength. Since Young Master Ye can contend with the God King and commands a large army, we naturally hope to cooperate with you.

Cooperation, for our Dream Clan, can turn enemies into friends and promote our business association's development, and for Young Master Ye, it adds a stable income to support the army—it's a win‑win.
