Chapter 333: The Alliance of Gods’ Background
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Due to various reasons, the Skylight Flower and the Divine Pure Grass had always been in a state of being unable to make ends meet. In addition, the Alliance of Gods monopolized those two types of spiritual flowers and plants, which further increased those two types of flowers and plants’ values.
Therefore, the market value of those two types of flowers and herbs was still barely within the acceptable range, but that resulted from the Alliance of Gods’ artificial control to harvest profits.
Otherwise, their value would only be higher if they opened up the market.
“Although I’ve already killed all the enemies, the news should have been leaked long ago. For this, the Red Dragon Clan of the Dragon race sent hundreds of Dragons to the Kingdom of Dawn to force me to hand them over, but in the end, they could only return in defeat. But since the Dragon race knows, the Alliance of Gods should also know!”
Hou Chun’s expression changed slightly when he heard that.
“Brother Hou, don’t worry. The Skylight Flower and the Divine Pure Grass are mine. Even if the Alliance of Gods wants to cause trouble, they’ll be looking for trouble with me. It has nothing to do with you!”
Hou Chun waved his hand and said, “That’s not what I’m thinking. I don’t want to lose a partner like Country Lord Li!”
When Li Xiang heard that, he laughed loudly and said, “Brother Hou, you don’t have to worry about this. When the army comes, we’ll take it as it comes. Even if I can’t beat the Alliance of Gods, they definitely won’t be able to do anything to me in the short term!”
Hou Chun said solemnly, “Brother Li, don’t look down on the Alliance of Gods. To be able to run amok in the Myriad World Continent for so long and always be in a dominant position, it’s definitely not for nothing! Right now, the Alliance of Gods isn’t making any big moves because they are at a special time. After the black tide…”
Although he didn’t continue, Li Xiang understood what he was trying to say.
“Don’t worry. I’m not looking down on the Alliance of Gods. It’s just that as long as we want to develop normally, we will eventually clash with the Alliance of Gods. Sooner or later, it will be the same. Initially, I also wanted to develop in a low-key manner and avoid attention, but the other party didn’t give me this opportunity!”
Hou Chun’s lips moved, and he wanted to say something, but he hesitated.
Li Xiang saw that he wanted to say something again, so he said, “Brother Hou, if you have something to say, just say it. There are no outsiders here, and absolutely no news will be leaked!”
Hou Chun sighed lightly and said, “I’ve only heard about this matter, and it’s not considered accurate news. But after thinking about it, I still have to remind Brother Li. As the name implies, the Alliance of Gods is not a simple alliance of a few top races, but their alliance!”
Hou Chun did not say it directly but pointed to the sky with his finger.
Li Xiang was shocked.
Although he had thought that the Alliance of Gods was stronger, he still did not expect that the actual Alliance of Gods was not a race alliance but an alliance with the ‘True Gods’. No wonder they shamelessly dared to call it the ‘Alliance of Gods’. That was actually their source.
He took a deep breath and nodded. He solemnly said, “Thank you for your guidance, Brother Hou. In the future, Brother Hou will be a friend of the Kingdom of Dawn. If you need anything in the future, just say the word. As long as it is within my capabilities, I will not decline!”
Hou Chun gently exhaled. He had taken the risk to reveal this information because he genuinely believed in the Kingdom of Dawn.
The Frost Purgatory matter had become a hot topic. The Lord of Dawn had even dared to kill the Frost Ancient God Messenger. That was the real reason why he had decided to reveal that information.
The Alliance of Gods and the Lord of Dawn were already in a life-and-death situation. Since that was the case, he might as well give him a favor. To him, it was just a matter of a few words. There would be benefits and no harm.
Moreover, the Myriad Worlds Traveling Merchants Alliance wasn’t a simple faction. Although they had always been in a neutral position, not everyone dared to provoke them.
After the two of them decided, Li Xiang immediately ordered his subordinates to prepare the materials and deliver the items.
Many materials were needed to build the Tower of Stars, and they were all rare and precious. He didn’t know if he could gather them all.
Fortunately, several materials in that transaction could be used to build the Tower of Stars. Obviously, Hou Chun had already expected that.
There were only eight days left for the system’s protection, and it was about to be unsealed entirely. When that time came, it would be the black tide.
Although Li Xiang’s strength had significantly increased, he again felt the danger after knowing that the True Gods Alliance was behind the Alliance of Gods.
His current strength was still insufficient to fight against a true God.
Although a true God could not interfere directly with the Myriad World Continent, Gods had many tricks up their sleeves. Furthermore, there were countless agents. It was definitely not an easy task to establish a foothold in the Myriad World Continent under the hostility of the Myriad races.
Therefore, before the system barrier disappeared, he had to forge the Tower of Stars successfully.
That treasure was poison to others, but it might be a huge opportunity for him.
After returning to the City of Dawn, he told Yang Mi and the others about his idea and then returned to his room.
The palace complex in the City of Dawn was very big, but there was almost no one who could enter the palace to serve. No one could enter the palace complex except the heroes under him, Yang Mi, and others.
Therefore, it was quite deserted here.
However, Li Xiang didn’t care about that, nor did he intend to recruit palace maids and eunuchs. It was sufficient as long as he did not need to worry about food and drink.
“Alice, bring some people into the national treasury right now and help me collect materials!”
“Yes!”
Alice wasn’t in the palace, but Li Xiang could now communicate with all his subordinates through space, so he didn’t need to face them face to face.
As for himself, he opened his interspatial ring, revealing a sea of treasures.
Those treasures included equipment, potions, and materials. Each of them was a rare quality item.
Based on the information provided by the [Blueprint of Tower of Stars], Li Xiang began to search through those items, like searching for a needle in a haystack.
With the convenience of his divine sense, he could instantly check the attribute names of many items, so it was not too troublesome.
Very quickly, he found four materials among the many items. Two of them were the most important core materials.
Sun Refined Gold, Lunar Refined Soul, Bright Cosmic Stone, and Space Nether Stone.
Those were the four materials he found. However, he still lacked Star Core, Star Sand, and Star Divine Iron.
As for Divine Power, he didn’t lack it.
However, that transaction with Hou Chun included a hundred pounds of Star Sand. That amount was enough.
Only the Star Core and Star Divine Iron could only be encountered but not sought.
If he was lucky, he might be able to encounter the Star Core. However, Star Divine Iron was something he did not know. It was even his first time hearing about it. That would be a challenge.
Li Xiang opened the Trade Channel in the system interface and searched for ‘Star Core’ and ‘Star Divine Iron’. The results were as expected, nothing.
Although he had been prepared for that result, he was still slightly disappointed.
