The Invisible Demon is About to Transform
Qi Heng hurriedly said, "Don't worry, City Lord. It is the Sea Bliss Clan's greatest honor to receive your help. Naturally, we won't cause Sky City any trouble. When we return home, I'll say that Sky City rejected our plea for help. I'll fill in three random names on the list of members who'll be participating in the blood pact ultimate fight. When Lord Gu Han asks if these are the confirmed participants, I'll swap out Haitao at the last minute with your expert. I'll also be able to use the opportunity to see which members of the Sea Bliss Clan are loyal."
At this point, Qi Heng no longer cared about the Sea Bliss Clan's original honor. Instead, he was focused on coming up with a way to rebuild after the blood pact ultimate fight.
This disaster would also be the Sea Bliss Clan's touchstone through which Qi Heng would be able to look into the hearts of all the members of the Sea Bliss Clan.
Connected Beast Park had issued the blood pact ultimate fight to the Sea Bliss Clan because Qi Wangyang was too arrogant to see the situation for what it was.
Even if Connected Beast Park lost two thearch-class experts to Sky City and received crushing public criticism from the public afterward, the Sea Bliss Clan was a mere veteran faction that should never provoke the top-faction Connected Beast Park under any circumstances.
Yet it was ironic that as the leader, Qi Wangyang did not understand that even if the elites were somehow slipping, they would still remain as his betters.
Qi Haitao's adaptable nature made him appear more suited to be the Sea Bliss Clan's leader in Qi Heng's eyes.
Qi Wangyang should have taken responsibility for his mistake after that incident.
A few days after Qi Wangyang went after Connected Beast Park, Qi Heng became certain that it was not Connected Beast Park that had bought up all the Aurora pollen on the market.
Connected Beast Park was always at odds with Condense Fairy Orchard, and plant-type feys were Condense Fairy Orchard's role.
Thus, Connected Beast Park did not have much authority in the plant-type fey market.
After some investigation, Qi Heng unearthed that Condense Fairy Orchard was the one who had been controlling the supply of spiritual ingredients like Aurora pollen and using their expansive storage to create the farce that there was still sufficient Aurora pollen in the market.
This was why the Sea Bliss Clan, who had been focused on their far-off fish farms, did not notice that something was off about the supply of Aurora pollen in the market.
Qi Heng also realized that besides Condense Fairy Orchard, the Purchase With No Loss store, which was popular on Star Web, was also involved.
This Star Web store used blind trading to secretly increase their store of Aurora pollen.
There was no point for a faction to buy so much Aurora pollen unless it bred Angelfish of Bliss. Moreover, even if they did breed Angelfish of Bliss, they would not require such a humongous amount of Aurora pollen.
Additionally, it was not easy to store Aurora pollen as it would get moldy after two years.
If a fey as delicate as the Angelfish of Bliss consumed moldy Aurora pollen, it would quickly fall sick and die.
Hence, it was all but certain that the shortage of Aurora pollen in the market was part of a scheme conducted by both the Purchase With No Loss store and Condense Fairy Orchard.
After Qi Heng found this out, he had not even had time to become enraged at Condense Fairy Orchard, and the Purchase With No Loss store before Connected Beast Park issued a blood pact ultimate fight challenge to the Sea Bliss Clan.
Now that Sky City's City Lord promised to help the Sea Bliss Clan, the matter was all but settled.
Qi Heng thought that he would move on to hating Condense Fairy Orchard and the Purchase With No Loss store. However, he felt intense terror instead.
Despite all that had happened to Condense Fairy Orchard over the last few years, they still steadfastly held onto their status as a top faction. This meant that they had to have a thearch-class expert holding down the fort.
Moreover, the Sea Bliss Clan had personally witnessed Sun Ningxiang standing amongst the disciples of the members of royalty at the Guard Ye Banquet.
No matter how brave Qi Heng was, he would not dare to cross such a person.
Since Condense Fairy Orchard was willing to collaborate with the Purchase With No Loss store, it meant that there was an extremely important person behind the Purchase With No Loss store.
It was also no secret that Condense Fairy Orchard and Sky City were on good terms.
If Qi Heng went after Condense Fairy Orchard for revenge, Sky City might step in to end the already doomed Qi family to protect Condense Fairy Orchard.
Qi Heng only hoped that Condense Fairy Orchard and the Purchase With No Loss store would let the Sea Bliss Clan off when they tried to rebuild and stop scheming against them.
He was even willing to personally beg Condense Fairy Orchard and the Purchase With No Loss store for forgiveness if they felt that the problem lay with him.
At the brink of life and death, Qi Heng realized that even a veteran faction that he had been proud to be a part of was actually much less impressive than he had initially thought. If they crossed people they had no business crossing, they would be wiped from existence as well.
Now that Qi Heng understood what he meant, Lin Yuan gave the order to kick them out.
Lin Yuan's focus was on the Invisible Demon's imminent breakthrough.
If the Invisible Demon could evolve to Class 12, Lin Yuan would finally gain immortal power under his control. This would allow Lin Yuan to do whatever he wanted in the future without needing the Moon Empress' help.
Immortal power was considered peak combat power in the Radiance Federation.
Moreover, the Invisible Demon would not just be evolving to a Class 12 dimensional lifeform. When 9,900 units of source-type power was used on the Invisible Demon during its Source-Type Cleansing, its life would reach a whole new level.
Once the Invisible Demon became an Apostle, it would gain a second natural skill, and both its power and abilities would be transformed.
When Qi Haitao and Qi Heng left Sky City's private territory, Lin Yuan removed the access prohibitions and left Star Web.
He returned to his room and flashed himself into the Spirit Lock spatial zone.
Lin Yuan said to the waiting Invisible Demon, "Shadow, I've prepared the source-type power needed for your Source-Type Cleansing. From now on, it's all on you. Given my current power, I might not be able to help even if you run into danger during the transformation."
