Chapter 488: For the Sake of Peace

Famous for having a righteous cause!

What does it mean to be famous for having a righteous cause?

It means exactly that!

It’s not for personal gain, but for the peace of the world’s people, for those suffering in war to find happiness and health, to create a harmonious and beautiful new world, and to strive for universal unity.

However, what follows makes Lu Ye’s heart ache a bit!

But!

For the sake of peace!

Lu Ye is willing!

After the Nine Hearts Sect and the Heavenly Source Sect reconciled, they didn’t forget Lu Ye’s instructions and spread the word completely.

Many were quite surprised, but considering Lu Ye’s reincarnation as the Celestial Lord, improving the formations didn’t seem like such a big deal after all.

“Our sect’s formations are quite good, coming from the master of ghost formations six thousand years ago. Maybe they won’t be as good as Lu Ye’s improved ones, but they should work just fine!”

“Yeah, our sect has always been friendly. Five hundred thousand Source Stones isn’t a small number; if it could be cheaper, I’d have approached him myself.”

“Our formations are absolutely reliable. In the entire Sixth Heaven, besides Lu Ye, who else can break formations? So we really don’t need to ask Lu Ye; just avoid provoking him.”

The reactions varied widely.

Wealthy sects and those in weaker or dangerous positions were the first to rush to the Heavenly Gate to book Lu Ye for formation improvements.

In no time, over thirty sects had contacted Lu Ye.

Lu Ye organized them in order and asked them to prepare the necessary materials.

Just as he was about to head out after everything was ready, Ning Tianming came to report.

“Master, three women claiming to be your old friends are here seeking you. I’m here to inform you.”

Lu Ye frowned, instantly realizing who these three were.

How have they cultivated so fast?

“Tell them I don’t want to see them!”

With that, Lu Ye vanished without a trace.

Now Lu Ye fully understands what it feels like to have all resources consolidated to one person.

It can only be described in one word: awesome!

These people showing up would only slow down his cultivation speed with no benefits whatsoever.

At this point, Lu Ye has completely let go. Besides being a bit worried about forgetting Shangguan, leading him to be attracted to her again, he doesn’t care about anything else.

Lu Ye continues with his lucrative enterprise.

Outside the Heavenly Gate.

Shangguan Huanling, the pale Vermilion Bird, and Sun Ruowei are eagerly waiting.

But unlike the Vermilion Bird and Shangguan Huanling, Sun Ruowei hopes to catch a glimpse of the Melon King.

She knows the Melon King is Shen Xitang!

But what’s the big deal? Did Shen Xitang do something morally unjust? They have no enmity with Lu Ye, and he even calls her “Senior Uncle” when they meet.

So, her alignment with Shen Xitang isn’t too absurd.

Ning Tianming steps out, a look of apology on his face. “Ladies, I’m sorry, but the Master says he doesn’t wish to see you.”

The Vermilion Bird takes this news calmly.

Shangguan Huanling begins to ponder.

“Can we at least stay at the Heavenly Gate for now?” the Vermilion Bird inquires.

Ning Tianming is quite brisk with his response.

“No!”

“But we were once Lu Ye’s Dao Companions; there’s still a chance for us to reconcile!” Shangguan Huanling retorts unhappily.

Ning Tianming maintains a polite smile.

“When you reconcile, I will surely come to apologize!”

“I don’t need your apology, I just want to stay near Master Lu Ye!”

“Sorry!”

Ning Tianming, being the clever fellow he is, wouldn’t completely offend these women.

But as long as Lu Ye hasn’t spoken or shown any inclination, Ning Tianming will absolutely prevent these women from approaching Lu Ye.

Apologies are all he’s serving!

More apologies with a smile included.

The principle of not striking those who come with a smile!

They thought that after ascending to the Sixth Heaven, they could find Lu Ye again. Even if he hadn’t forgiven them, at least seeing him again offered hope, unlike before where they couldn’t see him at all, with no hope to cling to.

But what they didn’t consider was that even after their ascent, they still wouldn’t be able to see Lu Ye.

What level is Lu Ye at now?

Not just Xumi Realm, he’s practically invincible in the Sixth Heaven and even the Master of the Heavenly Gate.

And what about them?

Just ascended, in the Longevity Realm, wandering cultivators!

In terms of strength and status, they’re worlds apart. As long as Lu Ye doesn’t want to see them, they won’t be able to.

The three women had no choice but to settle temporarily near the Heavenly Gate, waiting for a chance to see Lu Ye.

Lu Ye, meanwhile, couldn’t care less about them; he’s busy, flying around with urgent matters.

He’s swiftly fixing and improving formations across major powers.

Not just that, Lu Ye even started personally promoting himself for Source Stones.

For example, improving cultivation methods!

These powers all have their traditions, with the Emperor’s techniques and supernatural abilities.

But Lu Ye guarantees that his improved techniques are definitely more effective than the original ones!

He knows these sects’ methods well, having been widely read in his past life.

However, some remained cautious, since techniques are the foundation of their traditions.

While some hesitated, others were undeterred, realizing some extremely old techniques weren’t suitable for modern cultivation. As Lu Ye recited their techniques word for word, some sects chose to have him help improve their methods.

Uh-huh, improving techniques costs eight hundred thousand Source Stones!

So Lu Ye was super busy, and amidst his bustling schedule, he didn’t forget to contribute to world peace. For sects nearby, he would hide his identity and directly break their formations with a punch as they activated them.

The formations didn’t completely shatter but would create a gap.

If the formation were to collapse, Lu Ye would have to repair it, which isn’t worth the trouble.

It’s proven that good deeds do get good rewards.

With Lu Ye being so benevolent, these sects hurriedly approached him, asking for his help to improve their formations, which in turn substantially increased his rewards.

Isn’t this the definition of good deeds being rewarded?

Also, if this world had a Nobel Peace Prize, they’d have to give Lu Ye an award!

For the whole month, Lu Ye didn’t return to the sect. Ning Tianming kept informing him from a distance about which sects booked for formation improvements and which ones booked for technique enhancements.

Lu Ye has now changed from refining Origins Dan to making alchemy pills with higher profits and even higher prices.

He switches them out periodically to avoid saturation in the market, preventing the profits from dwindling.

When any one kind of alchemy pill is produced excessively, not only does the price of the medicinal materials rise, but the price of the pills themselves will also decrease directly.
