"Alright." He Baichuan smiled helplessly. In the vast Ten Thousand Elephant Sea, it was rare for the First Island Master to act like Lu Ye, especially when the Three World Island was already a top tier Spiritual Island.
Which of the other Island Masters didn't firmly grasp the financial power of the island in their hands? Only Lu Ye didn't seem to care at all. He Baichuan didn't know whether to say that he had a big heart or was free and easy.
Putting aside the matter of the spiritual jades for now, He Baichuan said, "Junior Brother, there are now a few new Yue Yao on the island. Aside from everyone here, there are eighteen other Yue Yao on the island."
These newly ascended Yue Yao were all cultivators of the Jade Conch Realm. When they first came to the Myriad Manifestations Sea, they were already late-stage Constellation Realm cultivators. After cultivating in the Three Realms Island for all these years, they were able to advance.
The cultivators of the Nine Prefectures had started too late. Therefore, although there were cultivators at the late stage of the Constellation Realm, there were no cultivators at Yue Yao's level.
As for the Qing Li Dao Realm … there was something wrong with this realm itself. The cultivators who ascended to the constellations in this realm had their paths cut off. There was basically no hope of ascending to Yue Yao.
"How should we deal with these new Yue Yao? Junior Brother, please come up with a plan," He Baichuan said.
Lu Ye asked, "What about the other Spiritual Islands?"
He Baichuan said, "Although the Myriad Phenomenon Sea doesn't have any rules regarding the maximum number of Yue Yao a Spiritual Island can accommodate, the other forces would usually send out new Yue Yao if they have one. They would either return to their own world or leave the island to make a living on their own. After all, the energy on each Spiritual Island is limited. Yue Yao's consumption of energy is much greater than that of the constellations. If there are too many Yue Yao, it would affect the cultivation efficiency of the constellations. Therefore, there are usually not many Yue Yao on other Spiritual Islands."
Just like Bai Yue and Zi Xuan back then, there were actually not many Yue Yao. It was not that they did not have them, but that there was no need for so many Yue Yao to remain on the Spiritual Island.
Every Spiritual Island could only have five Guardian Yue Yao. Therefore, even if there were a hundred Yue Yao on the island, only the five registered Guardians would be able to participate in the battle.
There were already more than 20 Yue Yao in Three World Island, and there would be more in the future. So, it was time to consider this problem.
Sending the extra Yue Yao out was indeed a good idea. With her strength at this level, she should have no problem making a living.
However, the situation on Yuan Du's side was unclear at the moment. If he really did that, it might give the enemy an opportunity to take advantage of.
As for returning them to their home world … Not only was the journey far away, just the Explosion Zone alone was extremely dangerous for Yue Yao and her companions. If things went wrong, they might even die.
After pondering for a moment, Lu Ye said, "Let them do what they want. There's no need to send them out."
They were all new to the Spiritual Island. Even if Yue Yao consumed some of the Spiritual Island's energy, how much energy could she consume?
Moreover, he could also adjust the power of the Minor Constellation Palace, which was enough to ensure that the Three World Island had a good cultivation environment.
"In that case, Senior Brother thanks Junior Brother on their behalf." He Baichuan nodded. In truth, he was also a little worried about the ability of those newly ascended Yue Yao to make a living. Lu Ye's words had undoubtedly relieved him of his worries. After all, those newly ascended Yue Yao were all members of the Jade Conch Realm. If he allowed them to continue cultivating, it would undoubtedly be better for them to stabilize their cultivation bases.
"That's right," Lu Ye suddenly said. "Did anyone come looking for me while I was away?"
If Ma Bin had come to the Three World Island, he would definitely have let Zhu Yuan inform him. Although three months was not a long time, the sun moved very quickly. If Ma Bin had set off immediately after they parted ways, he might have already reached the Ten Thousand Elephant Sea.
"Yes." He Baichuan nodded. "I was just about to tell Junior Brother about this."
"Oh?" Lu Ye raised his brows. "Where is he?"
He Baichuan said, "Near the Spirit Jade mine."
"Hm?" Lu Ye was stunned. Was Ma Bin really that efficient? He had already arrived before he had even returned. Moreover, he had already entered the Spirit Jade mine.
However, after thinking about it for a moment, he felt that something was not quite right. If Ma Bin had come, he would have definitely contacted him. If he had not been around, he would have only waited. There was no way he would have contacted He Baichuan.
However, if it was not Ma Bin, then who was the one inside the Spirit Jade mine?
Lu Ye suddenly had a bad feeling. He looked at He Baichuan. "Senior Brother, who are you talking about?"
"The backer of the Three World Island, Senior Jiuyan from the Che Ling Realm." He Baichuan looked at him in confusion. "Junior Brother, who else do you think it could be?"
"Jiuyan …" Lu Ye was dumbfounded.
Why would Jiuyan come to the Three World Island and occupy the Spirit Jade mine? What was she trying to do?
More importantly, he had already promised Ma Bin to let him use the Spirit Jade mine to heal his injuries. However, now that Jiuyan was inside, if the two of them accidentally met …
Lu Ye did not dare to imagine what would happen.
He suddenly remembered something that Ma Bin had said before.
When this old senior from the Nine States had mentioned the Spirit Jade mine, he had said that it was not only a resource that could only be found in a top-tier realm. It was also related to Rizhao's future path …
Lu Ye did not know what Rizhao's future path would be like. His level of cultivation was not high enough, so he had not come into contact with it for the time being. However, from the looks of it, Jiuyan might have come to the Three World Island because of this.
However, the timing was too unfortunate.
Jiuyan had not mentioned coming to the Three World Island in the past …
Lu Ye suddenly remembered that the Three World Island had only become a top-tier Spiritual Island after the battle with Zi Xuan. In the past, the Three World Island had only been a top-tier Spiritual Island. Naturally, Jiuyan would not have been attracted to the Three World Island.
On the surface, she was the backer of the Three World Island. Back then, it was because of her that the Three World Island was able to gain a foothold in the Wanxiang Sea and develop rapidly. Jiuyan had not made any requests at all. Now that the Spirit Jade mine was beneficial to her cultivation, who could say anything if she wanted to occupy it?
Not to mention that Lu Ye wasn't there at the time, even if Lu Ye was there, he wouldn't have dared to say no.
However, if that was the case, what about Ma Bin? Lu Ye felt a headache coming on.
Many thoughts flashed through his mind. It was obviously not appropriate to bring Ma Bin back to the Dwarf Tribe. He did not want to have anything to do with the Dwarf Tribe. More importantly, he did not want to be involved with the Nine States.
Since that was the case, there was only one place left for him to go!
"How are Senior Sister Luan and Elder Yan Miao doing recently?" Lu Ye turned to look at Yu Xi and Cheng Xin.
Yu Xi had a standard foxy face. When she smiled, she was very charming. She said softly, "Reporting to the First Island Master, Senior Sister Luan and Great Elder miss you very much. A few days ago, they sent a message saying that if the First Island Master comes back, remember to tell you good news."
Lu Ye was stunned. He immediately understood and could not help but smile. "Okay, okay, okay. I will go back and visit the two Senior Sisters!"
Yu Xi did not say it too clearly. After all, there was a local Rizhao in the Three World Island, so she did not dare to say it too clearly. However, Lu Ye already knew what she meant.
He did not expect that in just a few years, the two of them had succeeded!
This was really a pleasant surprise. Although this good news should not be made public, this way, Ma Bin could go to the Mermaid Tribe's spiritual land to heal. He would not have to worry about disturbing the two's cultivation.
In fact, the two of them could even ask Ma Bin about Rizhao's cultivation experience. As a veteran Rizhao who had been promoted for who knows how many years, it would not be a problem for him to give guidance to two newcomers.
In this way, the Three World Island could be considered to have its own Rizhao. Although he had just been promoted, Rizhao was still Rizhao. He was not someone Yue Yao could compare to.
The worries in his heart were swept away, and Lu Ye's mood became much more relaxed.
"Also …" As He Baichuan spoke, he took out a storage ring and handed it to Lu Ye. "In the past few years, the island has put out a bounty and found a few treasures for Junior Brother. There are not many, but Junior Brother can use them."
Lu Ye's mood became even better when he took a look at them. Shockingly, these were all treasures that could be used to temper one's source of magic. Even though there weren't many of them, it was undoubtedly not easy to find them in a place like the Myriad Sea.
Since he could find these few items, he would definitely be able to find more.
"Increase the bounty. Collect as many of these treasures as possible at all costs," Lu Ye instructed.
"Okay, I will arrange it later," He Baichuan agreed.
After the meeting, everyone dispersed. Lu Ye had a rough understanding of the situation on the Three World Island in the past few years.
He sat cross-legged in his bamboo building and used the power of his Talent Tree to refine the treasures. He felt that the quality of his art source had improved by a sliver, and he was one step closer to perfection.
Satisfied, he stood up and left the bamboo building, heading in a certain direction.
There were very few people on the road. On the Three World Island, cultivators would only walk around when they were on patrol duty. Most of the time, they would be cultivating on their own.
They had all come from poor places, so they naturally knew how precious and rare such a good cultivation environment was. Any cultivator with even the slightest ambition would not waste their time.
As a result, the environment on the Three World Island could be said to be two distinct areas. The trade area was bustling with people, while the area where the cultivators were stationed was quiet and empty. There were very few traces of people.
Soon, he arrived in front of a building. With a light flick of his finger, a spell formation was activated.
Soon, a head poked out from the second floor of the building. When he saw Lu Ye, he was overjoyed. "Big Brother!"
With that, he retracted his head. After a while, the door to the building opened. Chu Shen walked out with a smile. "Big Brother, you're back?"
Outsiders only knew that Lu Ye had been cultivating in seclusion for the past few years. Only a few people knew that he had not been on the Three World Island. Chu Shen was undoubtedly one of them.
Lu Ye looked him up and down and nodded slightly. "Your cultivation has improved quite well. You're already Yue Yao?" Chu Shen's cultivation talent was undoubtedly very high. When they last met, he was already close to Yue Yao. It was not surprising that he had advanced.
Chu Shen chuckled. "It's all thanks to Big Brother. If I hadn't come to the Three World Island to cultivate, how could my cultivation have improved so quickly? Big Brother, come in and talk."
After a while, the two brothers sat down. Chu Shen poured a cup of tea for Lu Ye. Then, he looked at Lu Ye curiously. "Big Brother, when did you advance to Sunshine?"
Lu Ye laughed. "Is Sunshine that easy?"
Chu Shen said matter-of-factly, "Of course it's not easy for others, but for Big Brother, it's as easy as pie."
It was as if he thought that Lu Ye was omnipotent.
Lu Ye did not know why he thought this way. He could only reply, "I still need to polish it for a while."
