The alarming rumors were flying everywhere, making Ji Jue feel quite annoyed, but soon he realized why the related news never ceased...
The Dan City Federation made a high-profile announcent, declaring that they would expel and hunt down the impending rmaid Clan without harming the Seven Cities. As long as Dan City stood, they would never allow these beasts to disrupt everyone's wonderful life!
For a while, they won the unanimous praise of the townsfolk. Not to ntion, the military strength of Dan City, good deeds, and high morals were spread through various channels in the Seven Cities, almost becoming the light of civilization on the Endless Sea.
"Are they starting to create hype now?"
Ji Jue glanced at the news, almost amused.
"Yes." Minkler sighed, "Looks like the Empire has given a lot."
The ruler of Dan City was the Dan City Federation, composed of a rchant consortium, and behind them was the Holy Tree Family from the Empire, who loved to expand overseas.
The Holy Tree Family, who rose up with the Empire's native sect, held vast wealth and resources, and loved to spread their bets. Whether in the Endless Sea, Central Earth, or even the Federation, they wielded considerable influence, so reaching out to the Seven Cities wasn't surprising.
"You haven't been around these days, the old guy has been jumping around and has roped in quite a few people." Minkler comnted over the phone: "Even Chopra wasn't spared, you've missed quite an impressive scene."
"If I were there, they might not have been able to execute their plans as easily."
Ji Jue chuckled nonchalantly. He could guess with his heels what kind of pretexts and excuses Dan City had... probably, the current alliances were established based on the threat Ji Jue posed!
When he found out everyone thought so highly of him, Ji Jue didn't know whether he should feel honored.
Originally, everyone was looking forward to the Sujano Family's swift demise, but unexpectedly, they did perish, and Ji Jue took over instead.
He's even worse off than Sujano!
Even if the Sujano Family beca the Alliance Hierarch, the Seven Cities remained the Seven Cities. But if Ji Jue took that position, who knows what kind of grim shape the Seven Cities would be in?
Stirring trouble ca as naturally as breathing. Killing like a slaughter, playing gas like a tyrant, manipulating opponents like a festering decay.
And yet, this guy was a Golden Ribbon Craftsman of the Taiyi Ring, a renowned arms dealer in the Federation. His multiple identities made people's heads spin... No wonder, having such a nace moved in next door, who could even sleep well?
The Sujano Family is still watching you from the assembly line!
In comparison, even hardline reformist Fernan seed amiable and kind.
"This ti, for the rmaid expulsion, that old guy Galisto even pretended to invite you along." Minkler said on the other end of the line.
"..."
Ji Jue's hand paused for a mont, remaining silent, montarily puzzled: "Who's Galisto?"
"..."
In response, Minkler also went silent.
You were just at a eting in Pu City a few days ago, smiling as if you were long-lost brothers when shaking hands, and now you can't even rember his na?
He sighed and reminded: "The president of the Dan City Federation."
"Oh, the second bug." Ji Jue slapped his head, finally recalling this na from the edge of his mory, "Alright."
He said, "Then I'll go."
"Ah?"
Minkler was taken aback, instinctively sitting up, "Are you serious?"
"What else?"
Ji Jue finished his work: "They put in a lot of effort to flex their muscles. If you don't go, their preparation goes to waste.
I also want to see the prowess of the Holy Tree Family."
"I see."
Minkler sighed knowingly, as if enlightened: "You're stirring things up again, aren't you!"
.

Actually, Ji Jue really just wanted to go for a change of scenery!
Mainly to catch so wild ga!
The anticipated tumultuous winds had finally arrived. So why couldn't he go eat so too if the rmaids did?
Besides, apart from the rmaid materials Sister Wen brought back as souvenirs, Ji Jue had never actually seen a live rmaid, even if there were so many records and data, he had to assess them himself eventually.
First, capture a live one!
On the day he agreed, Ji Jue directly set sail, leaving behind a grumbling Lou Feng to continue turning his never-ending grindstone...
Under the night, Prosperity headed towards the migratory path of the rmaid clans, racing through the mist like a ghost, without stirring the slightest ripple.
Because the entire Prosperity was floating on the sea!
Compared to its previously shabby state, the Prosperity had taken on a completely different appearance, externally...
It looked even shabbier and more wrecked.
It bore no resemblance to any cargo ship at all, instead resembling a ship-shaped rock, with its detached hull now displaying a natural iron-gray, devoid of any reflection, and when struck, it sounded like stone.
The irregular hull occasionally protruded a bit, and its size had increased by more than one fold...
More importantly, Ji Jue could finally confidently add all kinds of equipnt on it, not having to worry about the materiality being inadvertently depleted by the Little Ox and Horse.
Because finally, it was fed!
As it turns out, when you want to progress, you have to rely on others. Regarding materiality richness and nutrition, there's nothing like the Ruins!
Ji Jue directly fed Giant Que with the corpses he got for free from the blood feud judgnt, the old Transcend amassed rebirth forms and broken Circle Realm over a lifeti, flowing under the Three-phase Alchemy, completely absorbed by Giant Que.
