Chapter 556

Within the Dark Spirit Realm, the Xi God smiled without speaking in response to the Fortune God’s question.

After a long while, he finally said slowly, “To pull off something this earth-shattering, of course there are more than just a few of us.”

“Fortune God, think carefully about how much benefit there would be if we could control the reincarnated disciples of the sects, or even turn them into our followers?”

“Just consider the wealth they secretly hide for the sake of reincarnation—that’s an incalculable, terrifying amount of resources.”

“Not to mention that after we infiltrate the sects through them, how much more benefit could we gain? How many of the sects’ resources could we get our hands on?”

“Beyond that, we can also take control of the Ambrosia Lord. From then on, the Dark Reincarnation Realm will bow to us. No matter which reincarnation passage they take, as long as they want to avoid the Five Taxes of Heaven and Man, we’ll have a stranglehold on it.”

“We can obtain the reincarnation lists of countless sect members from past and future, along with their tax evasion evidence...”

When Fuji heard this, her heart suddenly pounded uncontrollably. She thought to herself, “Once they’re discovered, their first reaction will be to crush you all dead.”

“These youngsters are way too bold.”

“Are evil gods all this aggressive nowadays?”

But seeing the other party’s confident expression, Fuji thought again, “Is he just bluffing?”

Fuji recalled the scenes when she used to describe projects to the Evil God King and her other colleagues—she’d exaggerate just the same, turning a phone scam into a Celestial Court destruction plan and a phishing website into the ultimate spirit world weapon.

“Damn... could this guy be deliberately painting me a big picture just to rope me in?”

Judging others by herself, Fuji thought the possibility was not small.

But aside from that, there were other possibilities.

“There might be an even more powerful evil god above him, maybe even an Evil God King pushing this whole thing, and they’ve already infiltrated some sect members and built up a faction inside the sect.”

Thinking this, Fuji’s greed flared up fiercely. Just imagining finding the hidden wealth of those reincarnated great beings made her itch to take a slice of the pie.

Fuji had to admit that the other party’s plan was too tempting. The potential profits were so high she couldn’t resist wanting to get involved.

At the same time, Fuji also understood that as an evil god, what he said could never be one hundred percent the real plan.

“The target is definitely the reincarnated great beings and the Ambrosia Lord — that’s probably eighty percent correct.”

“But stuff like infiltrating the sects and controlling the Dark Reincarnation Realm? Who knows if that’s true or false.”

“Only they themselves know what their real ultimate goal is.”

Meanwhile, as Zhang Yu listened to what the Xi God said, he was also shaken to the core, but it also roused a strong sense of vigilance.

“Is this something we can get involved in?”

Seeming to sense Fuji’s hesitation, the Xi God said, “No need to be so tense. We’re not going to declare war on the sects tomorrow.”

“Locking down the reincarnated great beings, finding evidence of tax evasion on the Five Taxes, obtaining the Ambrosia Lord’s ledgers, controlling the Ambrosia Lord, controlling the reincarnated great beings… all of this is a long-term process, a grand plan, one that requires extreme patience.”

“Every single step might span years or even decades. We need to lay our groundwork from afar, wait patiently, and reap slowly.”

“For example, collecting information on the Nascent Soul Dharma Relics at Ten Thousand Laws University — we’re prepared to spend several years on that.”

“In the long course of this entire plan, Fortune God, you can join at any time and also choose to drop out whenever you wish.”

Upon hearing this, Zhang Yu said thoughtfully in his heart, “Fuji, what do you think?”

Fuji nodded slightly in her heart: “What he said about that is indeed true. This plan is too long. The final profits are far beyond what we can consider right now. It can only be described as a banner to rally evil gods.”

“On the other hand, during the long process of executing the plan, through trade and mutual assistance with them… we can get plenty of tangible benefits.”

“Besides, here in the Dark Spirit Realm, they can’t trace my roots anyway.”

After some discussion between the two in their minds, Fuji finally said, “Alright, count me in for now.”

“Tell me what kind of help you want from me.”

The Xi God said, “We want you to help us steal a set of data from the Finance Department.”

Fuji thought to herself, “How am I supposed to do that?”

But aloud she said casually, “Oh? The Finance Department’s security isn’t low. If you want me to help with that, what can you offer?”

The Xi God said, “No need to take too big a risk. Our man had already successfully retrieved the data, but he got trapped inside during the retreat.”

“However, before he was caught, he hid the data in a secret location.”

"I just need your people to retrieve the data from there."

Looking at the location the other party provided, Zhang Yu frowned. "The Spirit World Information Center at University City? Could it be the data they stole while attacking University City last time? But they couldn't get it out smoothly?"

Fuji spoke, "Information Center? This place is heavily guarded. Sending someone in to steal things is too dangerous."

Xishen said, "It's not really stealing. Just have your people go retrieve the item."

After some bargaining, Xishen agreed that upon completion, they would provide technology related to Spirit World hijacking.

Fuji had already been extremely envious of such technology when she last saw the demon cult hijacking University City's Spirit World. Although this time they were only giving a small piece of technology, it still greatly piqued her interest.

Now the only problem was how to accomplish this task.

A few days later.

At the construction site.

Zhang Yu took a few detours, and his figure disappeared from the cameras.

Picking up a relic that had fallen into a gap in the spiritual mechanism circuit, Zhang Yu thought to himself, "Is this it?"

The reason Zhang Yu could come here so easily was that with the start of the great infrastructure era within University City, a large number of facilities damaged in battle were being repaired or even rebuilt.
