Chapter 208: Chapter 9: Door to the Myriad Realms Energy Storage Complete, Fifth Traverse? (Seeking Subscriptions)_2
```
Heiyu Ao didn't think there would be any hidden dangers, as long as he could successfully return to his family and take the patriarch's throne, then everything would be worth it.
...
Chikun Prime Virtual World.
Within a temporarily established manor world.
Fang Qing, along with over three hundred other silhouettes, sat before a huge round table.
These three hundred plus silhouettes were all Evolvers who joined the Red Kun Lineage with Fang Qing.
They were the ones who passed the tests of the Seven Star Cave.
In the Red Kun Lineage, with the thirteen Peak Masters high above, the backgrounds of the members below varied greatly.
Hence, members who joined in the same batch often had a closer relationship, after all, they were from the "same class".
"Fang Qing, since you've called us here, get to the point."
"Indeed, with our relation, we speak frankly."
...
Before the round table, one Evolver after another spoke up.
But the majority remained silent, not taking a stance.
Among them were the silver-haired woman Yin Ling, a male member of the Tri-Eye Clan, and the nearly three-meter-tall strong man.
As the earners of the red patterns in the Seven Star Cave test, even after joining the Red Kun Lineage, these three held a not insignificant status.
They had been invited purely based on the face of having joined the Red Kun Lineage in the same batch.
"Everyone."
Fang Qing looked at the crowd and said solemnly, "My home, Canglan Star, is currently being suppressed by the Heiyu Family."
"They interrupted trade with Canglan Star and implemented despicable economic sanctions. I implore you all to persuade the forces behind you to trade with Canglan Star."
Fang Qing spoke earnestly.
The worst impact of the Heiyu Family cutting off trade with Canglan Star wasn't the loss of the Heiyu Family as a partner.
It was a series of subsequent negative effects.
Other forces, upon seeing the Heiyu Family pulling out, might "follow suit".
To stem this tide, the only way was to swiftly rebuild trading channels with other powers.
The "other powers" mentioned here, first and foremost, must not be afraid of the Heiyu Family.
Only with the restabilization of trading relations could Lin Yuan be taken out of the center of public opinion.
Many Evolvers here were formal members of the Red Kun Lineage, and the forces behind them naturally didn't care much for the Heiyu Family.
"So that's the situation."
"The despicable Heiyu Family."
"Using their size as a weapon, they bully the weak everywhere."
"Brother Fang Qing, I'll definitely help you with this."
...
Before the round table, many Evolvers shared a common enemy and readily pounded their chests in promise.
Of course.
The reason these Evolvers said so was completely because of Fang Qing's face.
By agreeing to help Fang Qing at this moment, it meant that he owed them a favor, and in the future, Fang Qing would have to help them as best as he could.
"Canglan Star?"
At this time, the male member of the Tri-Eye Clan spoke up, "If my memory serves me right, wasn't this whole issue caused by Heiyu Ao of the Heiyu Family trying to recruit Lin Yuan, who refused, resulting in these events?"
"Fang Qing, you just need to wait for a while. As soon as Lin Yuan bows his head on his own, the trade sanctions against Canglan Star will disappear. Are you sure you want to use so many favors just to help your friend?"
The male member of the Tri-Eye Clan looked at Fang Qing with interest.
The other Evolvers at the round table also turned their attention to Fang Qing.
They didn't care if the Heiyu Family bullied the weak.
The reason so many Evolvers went along with what Fang Qing said was entirely for the sake of a favor.
After all, this incident wasn't much for them, just the addition of a trade route.
Under the gaze of everyone.
Fang Qing's eyebrows furrowed slightly.
In his mind, he couldn't help but recall the advice of his old teacher, the white-bearded old man, when he first heard about the plight of Canglan Star.
"Help, you must help."
"Even if it leads to bankruptcy, you must help."
The white-bearded old man understood the whole story and couldn't help but roar.
"Huh?"
Fang Qing was taken aback.
He had thought about helping, and had even started to think of an escape route for Lin Yuan.
But to see the white-bearded old man so excited, he was somewhat puzzled.
"Fool."
The white-bearded old man glanced at Fang Qing.
"Tell me, if you hadn't joined the Red Kun Lineage, facing the recruitment by Heiyu Ao, would you have accepted?"
The white-bearded old man asked in return.
"I should... probably have accepted..."
Fang Qing thought it over carefully and nodded.
Not having joined the Red Kun Lineage meant that he had no backing. Facing such a colossal entity like the Heiyu Family, there was no way to resist or refuse.
Unless he spent his life staying on his planet and never venturing out, the moment he left to explore or travel, he would have to watch out for the Heiyu Family taking action against him.
"Then you tell me, is your Brother Lin, stupid?"
The white-bearded old man continued to question.
```
"Lin Yuan is, of course, not stupid,"
Fang Qing said without hesitation.
"What do you mean?"
Fang Qing suddenly realized.
"If Lin Yuan isn't stupid, yet he made a decision that seems foolish, what do you think is the reason?"
The bearded old man led the way.
"Lin Yuan has other trump cards up his sleeve; he doesn't take the Heiyu Family, no, Heiyu Ao seriously,"
Fang Qing said excitedly.
"At least you have some brains."
The bearded old man said contentedly, "By helping your Brother Lin now, you are providing timely help, do you understand?"
...
"I'm certain."
At the round table, Fang Qing looked at the many Evolvers and nodded as he spoke, "Anyone who helps me today, I will promise a favor in return. If there's any issue in the future, just come to me directly."
"Hmph."
Seeing this, a Tri-Eye Clan man snorted coldly and immediately disappeared.
He was too lazy to get involved in these trivial matters, and he valued Fang Qing's promise of a favor even less.
However,
Aside from the Tri-Eye Clan man and a few others, the majority of Evolvers still gave Fang Qing face.
Even the silver-haired woman Yin Ling promised to have a word with the force behind her.
After all, this matter was of no difficulty to them and helping out wouldn't cost them much.
...
Virtual World, private space.
Heiyu Ao's expression was gloomy.
"Damn it..." Heiyu Ao's eyes narrowed, "I didn't expect that Fang Qing would willingly owe so many favors for Lin Yuan, and ask so many fellow students to establish trade relationships with Canglan Star..."
Heiyu Ao felt somewhat helpless.
He originally thought that Fang Qing was just playing around, putting on a show for Lin Yuan.
But he didn't expect Fang Qing to genuinely stand up for Lin Yuan and pay such a high price.
"And the Red Kun Lineage, are they really that united to oppose the Heiyu Family along with Fang Qing?"
Heiyu Ao's face became even more sullen.
"Young Master."
"What should we do now?"
Below in the great hall, Bei Zhao tentatively asked.
"What to do?"
"What else can we do?"
"Do I dare to go against the great Red Kun Lineage?"
Heiyu Ao waved his hand, "If I dare to do that, I would be forcibly taken back by the family."
Playing dumb in front of Fang Qing was one thing, which didn't lead to serious consequences, nor did it have much to do with the Red Kun Lineage.
But now, if he dared to meddle further, he would truly become an enemy of the Red Kun Lineage. With so many formal members of the Red Kun Lineage stepping forward, Heiyu Ao naturally knew what to do.
...
Time passed by.
In the blink of an eye, more than half a year had passed.
Central Continent Manor.
Lin Yuan finished his cultivation and glanced at the internet.
"Hmm, the influence of the Heiyu Family has essentially been eradicated."
Lin Yuan stepped out of the underground training field.
In the past half year, as many members of the Red Kun Lineage had come forward and persuaded their respective forces to establish trade with Canglan Star,
the influence of the Heiyu Family naturally dwindled.
As for the curses against Lin Yuan on the internet, they had long since faded into oblivion.
It was as if the entire event had never happened.
"This is human nature..."
Lin Yuan shook his head slightly; he wasn't bothered by it, but his parents and sister's mood had obviously improved significantly recently.
"Half a year's time, Soul Compatibility..."
Lin Yuan slightly closed his eyes, beginning to sense the level of his Soul Compatibility.
Half a year ago, his Soul Compatibility had reached twenty percent.
Now, after seven to eight months of continuous refinement of the Martial Path Evolutionary Path, Lin Yuan was beginning to feel that his Soul Compatibility was about to reach Perfection.
"Eighty-five percent...
Lin Yuan opened his eyes, a smile appearing on his face.
An eighty-five percent Soul Compatibility meant he was in the latter phase of transformation, getting very close to stepping into the Sixth Rank.
Just as Lin Yuan was planning to continue his cultivation to perfect the Martial Arts Evolution System and increase his Soul Compatibility,
Suddenly,
Lin Yuan's expression changed slightly.
Because,
Deep in his mind—
the grand and imposing Door to the Myriad Realms at the edge had been completely illuminated.
