Protect Our Clan Leader

She could only praise, “The boss is generous”!

“Actually, our Wang family gained more from this battle.” Wang Shouzhe said with a smile, “I hope the senior doesn’t blame us.”

“Why would I blame you?” Sacred Supreme Water Moon naturally knew what he meant, and stated earnestly, “This time, I was merely hired to join forces with two fellow Daoists to deal with the Green-Skinned Sacred Supreme, and I got sixteen Chaos Spirit Stones. I’m already more than satisfied with this reward.”

“As for the Wang family earning even more, I wouldn’t be envious. After all, you were the organizers of this battle, bearing the expenses and risks. Frankly speaking, if this mission failed, the Wang family would not only lose soldiers but also face the risk of bankruptcy. Whereas for us in the Water Moon Heavenly Abode lineage, if danger arose, at most, we’d just retreat voluntarily!”

Saint Qingyuan also said with a smile, “The senior is right. We workers got a high salary from you for doing our job, and naturally, we only take what’s ours. As for whether you, Shouzhe, as the boss, made a profit or loss in this battle, we don’t care, nor should we care. Being able to invest a huge sum to organize and command this battle, and make huge profits, is your ability and skill. If you asked me to invest and manage this, I really wouldn’t have the courage or capability.”

The thought of just giving out the extra reward of 30 Chaos Spirit Stones already made him feel a pang in his heart.

Holy Maiden Water Moon also waved her hand and said, “Shouzhe, don’t be pretentious, we understand the rules. Considering we are good friends, at most, I would ask for more bonuses if you made more money, and if you made less, I’d take less pay. But I wouldn’t get envious if you made more. Not to mention, you gave double the bonus! If there’s another chance to make money like this in the future, don’t forget to call me~~”

Wang Shouzhe laughed and said, “That’s certain. In the future, if there’s something good, I’ll continue calling everyone together.”

Actually, he should have also included Holy Maiden Water Moon in his family’s tribute team and settled rewards according to contribution points. However, considering she was a Holy Maiden from the Heavenly Abode and his master was present, Wang Shouzhe felt embarrassed to do so.

“With this money, the days in the Water Moon Heavenly Abode will be much better.” Sacred Supreme Water Moon said happily, “I plan to use some connections to acquire a few Immortal Scriptures, so that we can create a few more Immortal Palaces in our Water Moon Heavenly Abode. By the way, Shouzhe, can you exchange a couple of those Level Thirteen and Level Fourteen Atana Inheritance Crystals with us? With them, a disciple with good aptitude might even become a True Immortal, and in the future, might transform into an Immortal Scripture.”

“Senior.” Wang Shouzhe shook his head with a bitter smile, “You know a bit about the situation in our Divine Martial World now. We severely lack Immortal Scriptures and Codices, please don’t make it difficult for us.”

“Exactly, senior Water Moon, you’re the master of the Heavenly Abode, and have wide connections in the Sacred Domain. It’s easier for you to acquire Immortal Scriptures than for us.” Yun Tiange also said, “I even want to pay you to help purchase some Immortal Scriptures, Codices, and Divine Power Inheritance Stones.”

Sacred Supreme Water Moon hurriedly refused, “It’s not easy to buy Immortal Scriptures; the quantity available in the market is too limited. Tiange, you better go to the Sacred Domain yourself and try to find some. Ideally, talk to those Immortal Clans who have two or three Immortal Scriptures but are already on the decline~”

In the past, Sacred Supreme Water Moon might have been willing to help search for Immortal Scriptures, earning a bit of a hard bargain in the process. But now, she and her disciple were holding over twenty extra Chaos Spirit Stones, and naturally wanted to expand their facade.

“By the way, An Qing, what about your five Chaos Spirit Stones?” Sacred Supreme Water Moon thought of this and suddenly focused on her disciple, “Come on, hand them over for me to keep and invest them in the construction of the Heavenly Abode.”

…

Holy Maiden Water Moon looked bewildered.

She just got her Chaos Spirit Stones and now they were going to be confiscated? She planned to do a few more jobs, save up some Chaos Spirit Stones, and buy a Sacred Artifact later.

“What are you looking at?” Sacred Supreme Water Moon said angrily, “With your personality, if you keep a fortune with you, you’re bound to become conceited. In the future, you’ll inherit our Water Moon Heavenly Abode, even my Sacred Artifact will be yours. Aren’t you willing to part with a few Chaos Spirit Stones?”

Clearly, Sacred Supreme Water Moon knew her disciple very well and had little trust in her financial management skills.

“Master, please let me keep them a few more days.” Holy Maiden Water Moon was almost in tears.

If she had known it would end like this, she would’ve invited other Sacred Supremes to come and work.

She hurriedly signaled to Wang Shouzhe for help.

Wang Shouzhe coughed twice and diverted the topic for Holy Maiden Water Moon, “Senior, there are a few questions I would like to ask you.”

“Please speak, Shouzhe, I will answer without reservation.” Sacred Supreme Water Moon was very polite to Wang Shouzhe.

“I want to build a Super Space Shift Array and its complementary Super Spatial Communication Array to solve the problem of remote space, where communication and transportation are inconvenient.” Wang Shouzhe personally poured more tea for Sacred Supreme Water Moon and earnestly asked, “I wonder if the senior has any connections in this regard? Rest assured, we will pay you an introduction fee.”

The so-called “Super Space Shift Array” is similar to the Super Space Corridor type of space array. It can open a space channel between two space nodes, allowing void ferries like the Immortal Palace and Moonlight Palace to travel through, instantly crossing vast space distances and greatly reducing the time spent on travel.

There are quite a few such space arrays in the Sacred Domain, and he used them multiple times when riding the Heaven Void Cloud Boat to the Tianrui Saint Dynasty, which was very convenient.

It was since then that he started to have this idea about the formation.

“It’s a small matter, the introduction fee is waived, and our Water Moon Heavenly Abode has already gained a significant advantage this time.” Sacred Supreme Water Moon also said earnestly, “I have a friend, a Sacred Master of Formations, with a mild temperament and straightforward dealings. Introducing him to construct the Super Space Shift Array won’t be a problem. However, the cost… I’m afraid it will be over a hundred Chaos Spirit Stones.”

Over a hundred Chaos Spirit Stones?

Even for Wang Shouzhe, as wealthy as he was, he drew a breath of cold air.

“Shouzhe, don’t misunderstand.” Sacred Supreme Water Moon hurriedly explained, “To build a Super Space Shift Array and communications array suitable for this place is a large project, which would take two to three hundred years to complete, and the material cost is the main expense. Over a hundred Chaos Spirit Stones is already a very fair price.”

“Our Sacred Domain is vast, with many places connected by Super Space Shift Arrays. These are high-end transportation facilities, and though expensive to build, once completed, they are endlessly beneficial.”

Wang Shouzhe’s expression was slightly solemn, but he didn’t hesitate at all and directly agreed to this price, “Then please, senior, assist with this.”

He naturally understood Sacred Supreme Water Moon’s meaning.

The presence of a Super Space Shift Array is like a highway. While expensive to build, once completed, it will provide endless benefits in the future.

He plans to construct a space base in this area of Star Fragments Beach for mining, smelting, and primary metal processing operations, utilizing the subspace and the countless floating star fragments.

But this plan must be based on convenient transportation between the two sides, allowing for prompt support in case of any issues.

If a large-scale Super Space Shift Array isn’t constructed, this explored space would become an enclave!

To avoid such situations, the answer is clear—build it, even if it means selling everything to do so!
