Since ancient times, there had been cases of deserted islands reviving and spiritual islands dying in the Vientiane Sea. However, for those spiritual islands that were revived for unknown reasons, they were at most promoted to a high-class spiritual island. Furthermore, there were only a handful of such cases. There had never been a case of a deserted island being promoted to a top-class spiritual island after being revived.
This was the first time in history that Matchless Island had become a top-class Spiritual Island. There were only a handful of top-class Spiritual Islands in the entire Wanxiang Sea. When the news spread, which force would not be tempted?
One should know that a top tier Spiritual Island was equivalent to a top tier Realm. Both of them could produce Spiritual Jade mineral veins. The only difference was the quantity. A top tier Realm might have more than one Spiritual Jade mineral vein, but a top tier Spiritual Island only had one Spiritual Jade mineral vein. Even so, many people were tempted to take action.
Everyone knew that Matchless Island was not very powerful on the surface. However, due to Chu Shen's background, it was not easy for the external forces that coveted Matchless Island to make a move.
It was not easy for the external forces to make a move, but the local forces had less to worry about. In fact, when the Unparalleled Island had been promoted to a high-class Spirit Island, many local forces had wanted to get a piece of the pie from Chu Shen. This was because, on the surface, Chu Shen only had Jiu Yan as his backer. However, at the end of the day, Chu Shen was a cultivator from the Wanxiang Galaxy. Behind him stood the entire galaxy's Sunshine.
Those Rizhao did not care about small profits. However, when the profits were huge enough, they could not help but be tempted. They were willing to let Chu Shen use them as his backer. Naturally, they had the right to get some benefits from Chu Shen.
Therefore, some people wanted to arrange for some people to enter Matchless Island. Those people included not only Xingxiu but also Yue Yao. They said that Matchless Island should have the ability to protect itself now that it had grown. However, in reality, they wanted to use this method to achieve their goal of controlling Matchless Island.
If Peerless Island really belonged to Chu Shen alone, perhaps he would have agreed. He was not an unreasonable person. He also knew that he had unknowingly borrowed the prestige of the many sunshine in the galaxy, so it was understandable for him to share some of the benefits.
However, Matchless Island did not belong to him alone. Moreover, he knew that Lu Ye would bring a group of people with him when he returned to his homeland. When the time came, those people would definitely be arranged to stay on Matchless Island. Naturally, this would strengthen Matchless Island's ability to protect itself.
If he arranged for enough people now, what would happen to the people Lu Ye brought with him when he returned?
He would not be able to answer to his big brother then. Therefore, Chu Shen could only refuse. Although this made many of them unhappy, they couldn't really make things difficult for a junior because of Jiu Yan's reputation.
Until the news that Matchless Island had become a top-class Spiritual Island spread. Nichiterasu could no longer sit still. Although the Vientiane Sea was in the Vientiane Galaxy, the galaxy had only ever controlled one top-grade spiritual island, the Vientiane Island.
It wasn't that the Wanxiang Galaxy didn't want to get more top-grade Spirit Islands. It was just that the other forces that occupied the top-grade Spirit Islands all had powerful backgrounds.
Now that he finally had the chance to occupy the second top-grade spiritual island, how could he miss it? ............................................................................
..................................................
................ . Some things could not be stopped just because Jiu Yan disagreed. Jiu Yan was only one person. She could not represent the entire galaxy. Hence, it was decided that Rizhao would take back Matchless Island and make it part of the Wanxiang Galaxy.
... After that, cultivators from the Wanxiang Star System came to Chu Shen. They tried to reason with him … Chu Shen did not reject them. Instead, he pretended to be polite. He wanted to drag it out until Lu Ye returned. Even if he had to lose Matchless Island, he could not let it fall into his hands.
However, those who coveted Matchless Island gradually lost their patience. Seeing that Chu Shen was not sincere, they could only threaten him with force.
Anyway, on the Wanxiang Sea, attacking Spiritual Islands was a common occurrence. It was not rare. The attack and defense of a Spiritual Island began!
Unfortunately, Matchless Island was too weak. Even though Lu Ye had spent a lot of money to set up a defensive array, it could not stop the enemy.
With Matchless Island's strength, many forces could take it down. However, no one dared to do so. It was a slap in the face to the Wanxiang Galaxy. Who would want to make a living here in the future?
However, if they took over the Wanxiang Galaxy, it would not be a problem.
"Matchless Island is lost just like that. The profits from these few years are also gone." Chu Shen's expression was gloomy. The battle that day was not too intense. Chu Shen did not suffer any attacks. He was only captured alive by Yue Yao.
Most of the cultivators recruited by Matchless Island knew the truth of the battle. In fact, they did not resist. Only one person resisted fiercely. That person was Tang Jun!
Old Tang knew that Matchless Island was a foothold for the Jade Conch Galaxy cultivators. If Matchless Island was lost, even if the Jade Conch Galaxy cultivators came, they would not have a good future. Therefore, he fought with his life in that battle. He did not care about his own life. He was not fighting for his own pride. He was fighting for the future of the Three Realms!
"I've never seen Elder Tang like that …" Chu Shen sighed. All along, Elder Tang had always given him the impression that he was an amiable person. Usually, he would drink and make merry on Matchless Island, living a carefree life like a rich man. Who would have thought that at the most critical moment on Matchless Island, this old man who usually did nothing would fight the fiercest!
Unfortunately, he was not strong enough. Several of his magic treasures were broken. He was also seriously injured. The enemy would not make things difficult for Chu Shen. However, why would they care about an old Yue Yao like Tang Jun who did not have a strong background?
Many people died on the Wanxiang Sea every year. It did not matter if Tang Jun was there or not. Especially when Tang Jun looked like he was going to fight with his life. It aroused the enemy's killing intent.
Under Tang Jun's influence, Little Dumb, Crooked Tooth, and the others who followed Chu Shen earlier were also fighting with their lives. In the end, it was Chu Shen who spoke up and saved their lives. Of course, it was not without a price.
The profits of Matchless Island in recent years were the money for these people's lives!
"How much?" Lu Ye asked. Chu Shen said bitterly, "About sixty million Spirit Jades." Lu Ye silently calculated. Tang Jun, Little Dumb, Crooked Tooth, Cai Xing, Cai Yue, and Lucky Star were exactly six people. The money to buy their lives was really expensive. On average, it was ten million Spirit Jades per person.
However … it was good that they were alive. If they lost Spirit Jades, they could earn more. If they died, there would be nothing left.
"What about Ghost? She should have already become a Yue Yao at that time. Did she not participate in the battle? "Lu Ye asked again. Chu Shen said, "She participated in the battle. However, Senior Sister Ghost had just become a Yue Yao. She could not be of much use. She was constantly entangled by the other Yue Yao and could not get away."
"Was Pu Ke there at that time?" Chu Shen shook his head. "Ever since Senior Brother Pu Ke left that year, there has been no news of him." Lu Ye understood. Pu Ke had told him before he left. Since then, he probably had not returned. He did not know how he was doing now. Did he avoid the betrothal arranged by Ruan Tu?
Speaking of which, other than the girl's temperament being a little cold, she had a good figure and good looks. Moreover, she was a Yue Yao. He did not know what Pu Ke was hiding from.
"How is Elder Tang now?" Chu Shen asked. "Elder Tang has not fully recovered from his injuries. However, he should be fine now. He will be able to recover after resting for a while. However, the incident on the Peerless Island seemed to have affected him greatly. Recently, he has been rather dispirited and listless. Big Brother, do you want to go and take a look?" Of course, he had to go and take a look. Although Elder Tang had not been of much use in that battle and had almost been beaten to death, his backbone was worthy of respect.
Now, he finally understood the whole story behind the incident on the Peerless Island. It was somewhat similar to what he had guessed.
However, Lu Ye had not expected the Minor Constellation Palace to be so powerful. Earlier, when he had set up the Minor Constellation Palace, he had deliberately controlled its power so that the speed at which it converted the Ten Thousand Elephant Sea's water was maintained at a low level. He had not expected that the Peerless Island would be transformed into a top-grade Spiritual Island so quickly.
"I still have some things to ask you," Lu Ye said after deliberating for a moment.
"Big Brother, just say it." Chu Shen looked at him seriously. Lu Ye hesitated for a moment. In the end, he could not help but ask, "Did I offend your mother in some way?" Chu Shen was surprised. "Big Brother, why do you say that?" He then asked, "Big Brother, have you met my mother?" Lu Ye shook his head. He had indeed not met Jiu Yan.
"Since I have not met her, how could I have offended her? Moreover, my mother said just now that Big Brother is a person of integrity and is someone worth befriending. "Lu Ye was curious." Your mother said that? "
"Absolutely." That was strange. If Jiu Yan felt that he was someone worth befriending, then why did she make things difficult for him just now?
No matter what, he was a guest. Even if she did not treat him with respect, there was no need to do so. However, he could not ask Jiu Yan anything in person.
"Big Brother, did my mother say something to you through voice transmission?" Chu Shen misunderstood and hurriedly asked.
"No, Senior Jiu Yan did not say anything to me." Chu Shen looked at him suspiciously. He did not know if he believed him.
He did not understand this matter. Lu Ye was certain that Jiu Yan had done something to him just now. In the world of car bells, other than her, no one else had this ability.
"Also …" Lu Ye spoke again. "Is Banci from your world of car bells?"
"No." Chu Shen was stunned. He did not know why Lu Ye kept asking such strange questions today.
"Our car bells?
