Song Xianyun's words made everyone present suddenly excited. Lineage suffered heavy losses in the previous battle and had to sell many stores at low prices and gave away half of Market's operating income.

Now, Lineage's strength has greatly increased, and it's time to get back what was lost!

"I agree, it's time for the Earth Fire Sect to spit out what he's eaten!" A grumpy clan elder slapped the table and shouted.

"It's time to take it back." Song Luyao said coldly.

Council of Elders unanimously approved Song Xianyun's motion. Soon after, Song Clan held a meeting. Ling Province Six Major Powers gathered together to re-divide Liuyun Market's interests.

Song Clan's strength increased significantly this time, and he took absolute dominance in the negotiations, unceremoniously dividing 30% of the proceeds into his own hands.

Although Earth Fire Sect was unwilling to do so, Blazing Sun Sect didn't bother to intervene in this kind of thing. Without this powerful foreign aid, they were no match for the Song Clan, and in the end they could only maintain 20% of their base.

The remaining 50% was shared equally by the other four companies. They actually lost nothing, and Earth Fire Sect was the one who suffered the biggest loss.

But they can only suffer, after all, in this world, strength is king!

This matter was led by Song Xianyun throughout the whole process. Song Changsheng, who had relieved himself of the burden, began to retreat to understand Minor Divine Ability again.

But the difficulty of understanding [Mountain Overturning Seal] was still higher than he expected. Another three months had passed, and he still had not started.

However, he no longer intends to remain in seclusion. It is not advisable to work behind closed doors. He has not been able to understand the secrets for so long, which means that he has not yet arrived at Fortuitous Encounter.

After thinking about it, Song Changsheng practiced [Ink Jade Lotus Platform] to Second-Tier Low-Grade and ended the retreat.

"Young Clan Head, Great Elder ordered you to see him immediately after you leave seclusion." As soon as Song Changsheng walked out of Seclusion Chamber, a young tribesman in a green shirt came to him and said respectfully.

"I understand, you go down and do your work."

Song Changsheng nodded lightly, and then walked leisurely towards Hall of General Affairs.

Great Elder Since he was not forcibly awakened, it meant that the matter was not that urgent, and there was no need to rush it.

At this moment, Song Xianyun was writing furiously in front of the desk. When he noticed the arrival of Song Changsheng, he said without raising his head, "Changsheng is here. Please sit down for a while. I'll be here soon."

Song Changsheng shrugged upon hearing this, sat down on the side, and quietly started running Earth Dragon Clan's Body Forging Art with every breath.

He has now completely changed his breathing rhythm. Even when sleeping, he is always in the state of Body Tempering. Looking inside, the outline of [Earth Dragon Turning Over Diagram] has vaguely appeared on his spleen. As long as the complete picture emerges, [Earth Dragon Turning Over Diagram] will be regarded as Great Accomplishment Stage.

"Changsheng, come here." Song Xianyun suddenly waved to him.

Song Changsheng walked in and saw an extremely detailed map of Beast Skin placed on the table in front of Song Xianyun. Song Xianyun pointed to a route outlined with Cinnabar Pen on it and said:

"Changsheng, Lineage has recently regained part of Market's income, but it is still not financially sufficient. After careful consideration, Lineage intends to reopen Sunset City Trade Route, Council of Elders would like to know your opinion."

A hint of joy appeared on Song Changsheng's face, and he quickly said, "This is a good thing. Lineage's strength has increased greatly over the years, and it is time to restart Trade Route."

Trade History between Song Clan and Sunset City dates back to the reign of Song Yunhan Patriarch more than a hundred years ago. It is precisely because of this Trade Route pioneering that she was able to develop and grow Lineage, which was at a low point.

It can be said that more than a hundred years ago, this Trade Route was the lifeblood of the Song Clan.

Even though the strength of the Song Clan is growing day by day, this Trade Route is still one of the economic pillars of the Song Clan.

However, after the battle more than ten years ago, Song Clan's strength was seriously damaged and it faced covetousness from many parties. Song Xianming made the decision to shrink Lineage's power and gave up many industries. This Trade Route is one of them.

This is a decision made by the Song Clan under forced circumstances, because Lineage is not strong enough and can no longer maintain this Trade Route.

But the situation is different now. Patriarch's injury is gradually improving, and two more Foundation Establishment Cultivator have been added. Some time ago, four elders broke through. Their strength is very different, and they are fully capable of restarting trade!

"It's just... this safety issue?" Song Changsheng was hesitant to speak. Restarting Trade Route was naturally a good thing. One run could bring a lot of benefits to Lineage, but he couldn't help but think of what happened to Song Luyao.

There were too many enemies who coveted them, and he didn't believe that these people would watch them trade with Sunset City and remain indifferent.

"There is no need to worry about safety issues. We have thought about it seriously. Trade Route cannot be sustained by the power of Lineage alone, so this time we also joined forces with the Li Clan and Wang Clan.

Lineage will send two Foundation Establishment Cultivator, one Wang Clan and one Li Clan, a total of four Foundation Establishment Cultivator, which is enough to scare Xiao Xiao. "Song Xianyun smiled.

Song Changsheng suddenly realized that the four Foundation Establishment Cultivator were already a very impressive force. Not to mention Earth Fire Sect, even if Blazing Sun Sect wanted to eat them, they would have to break a few teeth.

"Lineage What goods have you prepared this time?"

"Mainly the spirit medicine I got from Wood Spirit Vein last time, as well as some Magic Artifacts and mineral ingots, with a total value of nearly 20,000 Spirit Stone."

This is already a large amount of money. As long as this order can be successfully completed, Lineage's finances will be much better.

"Then who is the candidate for this trip?"

Song Xianyun smiled mysteriously and said, "One is Lu Huai, and the other one is you."

"Me?" Song Changsheng didn't react for a while.

"Yes, this is what you Grandfather meant. He said that young people should go out and walk more while they are young to gain more knowledge and broaden their horizons."

Song Changsheng's eyes suddenly showed surprise. Over the years of training, Lineage had placed many restrictions on him. The farthest place he had ever been was only Liuyun Market.

He didn't want to see the outside world, but he was more aware of his situation and the responsibilities on his shoulders, so he stayed in the mountains.

And now, he can finally meet the legendary Sunset City!

"When will we set off?" Song Changsheng was already a little eager to try.

"It will take some time to collect supplies. We are tentatively planning to set off next month, but before that, you need to refine this item first." Song Xianyun said, taking out a long box from Universe Bag and handing it to Song Changsheng.

Song Changsheng took it doubtfully, and when he opened it, a strong wave of Killing Intent suddenly hit his face, making his hair stand on end.

After calming down, I looked at the box and saw three dark Willow-Leaf Flying Daggers neatly placed inside. There were traces of blood flowing on the blade surface, Killing Intent was compelling.

Song Changsheng suddenly said in surprise, "Spirit Artifact?"

ps: Additional updates promised during the National Day. I'm really sorry for delaying adding it until now.
