Chapter 551: Greed

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

The old king had sustained his life through dark magic, but at this moment, the dark magic backfired.

Xu Yuan raised an eyebrow.

After the gods lost their power, it was certain that the old king would pass away. This was the plan he and Nami had made.

Regardless of whether the dark magic backfired or not, the result would be the same.

He no longer needed the backup now.

“Notify Archduke Qing You to secretly enter the Holy Kingdom along with the other three dukes,” said Xu Yuan.

They had planned to enter the Holy Kingdom without causing much commotion. They would secretly gather and neutralize opposing forces. The plan was to make more friends and fewer enemies.

After the old king’s passing, they would all support the third prince’s ascension to the throne.

The specific details of how to proceed would be clearer to the dukes. The dukes were powerful. They weren’t simple. They hadn’t reached that kind of position by being foolish, after all.

Xu Yuan might not even need to take action. With the combined efforts of the few, they could certainly achieve what they hoped for.

The struggle for the throne wasn’t about the rightful heir. It was about the forces that drove the particular heir.

With their support, the third prince would eventually become the king.

“Understood” Timo was excited.

The heir to the throne was about to initiate reforms in that kingdom. And the one ruling the kingdom would be none other than the third prince, who had been despised just a few months ago.

Supporting someone so despised to ascend the throne felt like a tremendous accomplishment.

This had been possible only because of Su Wan and Xu Yuan. They were only seen as messengers, but they were satisfied with the outcome.

Timo reported to Xu Yuan and Su Wan about other matters.

“The sale of the Magic Music Box has reached new heights. Through the sales networks of the Qing You Pavilion Chamber of Commerce and the Lavender Business Guild, it’s starting to spread to the peripheral cities.”

So far, there were almost no competitors! Everyone expressed wild enthusiasm for the Magic Music Box.

For the poor natives, getting a Magic Music Box for just 1000 units of rare resources was a blow.

“According to Mestre, the Dark Elves have become well-known stars. Whenever the Lavender Business Guild releases new sound tapes by them, it gets sold out quickly. Many arrive to ask about the music boxes and are willing to reserve a Magic Music Box at a high price if they are out of stock.”

“Now we can proceed with the second phase of the Magic Music Box plan,” Xu Yuan said. “Print the customized pictures of the Dark Elves into magic art books. Price them at fifty times that of the Magic Music Box and begin selling them. Simultaneously, mass-produce small items like Dark Elf statues and ornaments.”

The prices of ordinary items should be affordable, while the prices of high-level items like magic art books should be higher. They needed to not only accumulate resources but also continue expanding their influence!

In the era of the fall of gods and shattered beliefs, Xu Yuan hoped that the Dark Elves would become the hope of this world.

Timo looked even more eager. He bowed and pressed his hands to his chest in respect.

“How is the development of the Dark Sect?” Xu Yuan asked.

“Following your and Lord Su Wan’s instructions, we have designated a special area for the Dark Ancient Tree Sect’s missionary activities,” said Timo.

After months of refining doctrine and improving the methods of preaching, the believers had grown to over ten thousand. Half of those had become devout followers.

“Select core members to continue expanding the missionary team,” Su Wan said.

“We hope that within three months, the Dark Sect’s followers can surpass a hundred thousand. I will complete the mission even at the cost of my life!” Timo’s tone was resolute. He knelt in respect.

“Is there anything else?” Xu Yuan nodded and motioned for Timo to rise.

“President Mestre has sent a message. The ruler of the Frostwolf Clan, the legendary Grand Duke Frostwolf, has sent Lady Tristana to Canglan City to cordially invite you and His Majesty Xu Yuan to visit the Frostwolf Territory.” ‘Lady Tristana was in Canglan City?’ Both Xu Yuan and Su Wan felt a bit sentimental. It had been too long since they had last seen her.

He had planned to visit the Ice Empire with Su Wan, but they had to deal with too many things and hadn’t found the time.

Even the Frost Ore vein obtained through trading the Flame Spider Silk remained unclaimed.

The Tasiria Plane had become an undisputed trading center and attracted not only the attention of Lords but also the natives.

For safety reasons, the Tasiria Plane only allowed Lords to enter. This left many native factions miffed.

Currently, only the Qing You Pavilion Chamber of Commerce had received Xu Yuan’s permission to enter the plane.

Although many noble factions consisted solely of Lords, ensuring access wasn’t an issue for them. But this restriction was still irksome, and it hampered many of their operations.

At this moment, the status of the Tasiria Plane was of great importance. No one could overlook it.

Many factions attempted to mimic Xu Yuan’s operations. Even after the opening of the dimensional gate, they still couldn’t form a substantial presence. The Tasiria Plane remained firmly in the top and had to be carefully considered.

“Send word to Mestre that until the situation settles, I and Su Wan cannot leave the territory. If possible, we can instead invite Grand Duke Frostwolf to visit our territory,” said Xu Yuan.

If an ordinary Lord were to say such words, outsiders might think they were insane.

But for Timo, this was something common.

The territory was so strong that it didn’t make a difference if some legendary people were miffed. Archduke Qing You was powerful, but he still respected Su Wan and Xu Yuan.

They were now collaborators and equals.

Even the God of Lies and Deception was protecting the death swamp for the territory. The legendary figures of the Ice Empire weren’t that important to them.

Timo departed proudly.

Being able to follow a leader like this was the best decision he had ever made in his life.

Xu Yuan watched Timo leave. He realized that he was now in a position where he could refuse legendary figures without coming off as offensive.

He was even certain that no one dared to go against them even if they were offended.

Xu Yuan felt proud of his territory.

No one could stop the passage of time. The gods had completely vanished without a trace.

Some forces couldn’t resist and began seizing the high-quality assets of the sects.

Most of the sect’s power had already been lost.

The sect’s remaining army was devoured by the greedy Lords. They couldn’t even put up much resistance.

These forces had initially been worried about going after the benefits. However, when they realized that no one was pushing back, they became bolder. Their greed knew no end.

They gradually shed their worries and charged in boldly..
