The purple-gold Primordial Token floated in mid-air, white light emanating from it. Lin Yu's figure quickly materialized in front of Baili Xuelian, though he was indeed facing away from her.

Even so, upon seeing Lin Yu, Baili Xuelian instinctively knelt on one knee.

" Primordial Sequence Disciple, Baili Xuelian, greets the Palace Master!"

Lin Yu: "..."

To Baili Xuelian's surprise, Lin Yu ignored her and kept his back to her.

This made Baili Xuelian very depressed. She thought to herself that it must be because her recent grades were too poor that the Palace Master did not want to see her, so he only gave her his back.

Thinking of this, the pressure of cultivation and the various hardships of running the business over this period of time welled up in her mind, Baili Xuelian almost shed tears.

"Lord Palace Master, it's all my fault, I've disgraced you!" Baili Xuelian said, almost choking back tears.

When had she, with her strong-willed nature, ever suffered such injustice?

Thinking about it carefully, in the Southern Heaven Great Domain, Baili Xuelian was a prodigy who attracted everyone's attention from birth. But now, in this Three Thousand Immortal Worlds, she is like an ordinary pebble, neither high nor low.

Not to mention that the Palace Master looks down on her, even Baili Xuelian herself looks down on herself!

"Ahem." But Lin Yu didn't say anything, only coughed awkwardly twice.

The cough puzzled Baili Xuelian, but the next second, a warm force enveloped her body.

Looking down in astonishment, Baili Xuelian almost wanted to disappear into the ground in shame and indignation.

What appeared on her was a plain-colored long dress that completely covered her body.

It turned out that Baili Xuelian was hastily dragged into the spiritual world. At this time, she was still in the state of a spiritual body, completely naked, and was in her own spiritual sea, facing a blue magic treasure. Baili Xuelian herself did not feel anything.

Lin Yu, however, realized what was going on as soon as he arrived and quietly turned his back.

Unexpectedly, Baili Xuelian, who was usually quick-witted, seemed to have gone mad today and didn't make a move for a long time. Helpless, Lin Yu had no choice but to take action himself.

Fortunately, Baili Xuelian was in a mental state at this time, so her blushing expression was not obvious.

"Lord of the Palace!" Baili Xuelian called out softly.

For some reason, Lin Yu felt a little embarrassed to turn around, so he kept his back to Baili Xuelian and continued speaking.

"This Heavenly Lotus Azure Eye is the treasure of the Nine Heavens Race. You must have seen it or heard about it not long ago."

Lin Yu's reminder brought Baili Xuelian to her senses.

However, it seemed that Heavenly Lotus Azure Eye appeared in the Clear Void Immortal Domain, rather than their Merchant Guild Immortal World, so Baili Xuelian didn't have a deep impression of her.

"Now, I have integrated her into your spiritual sea. For you, this thing's power will become like a physical constitution or a talent!"

"However, your cultivation level is currently too low, and you cannot utilize too many of its abilities. In the short term, this Heavenly Lotus Azure Eye should only be able to help you improve your cultivation level."

"Once you reach that level, you'll naturally be able to use its power! And the stronger you are, the more power of the Heavenly Lotus Azure Eye you can mobilize!"

"Don't worry, although this Heavenly Lotus Azure Eye is just an eyeball, it is intelligent. I have already spoken to it beforehand. If you encounter any danger, just ask for its help; there won't be any side effects."

"Thank you so much, Lord Palace Master!" Upon hearing this Baili Xuelian almost burst into tears of joy.

It was like a pillow being delivered to me just as I was about to doze off. I was worried about my low cultivation level, but I never expected that the Palace Master would solve this problem for me in the blink of an eye.

Thinking of this, Baili Xuelian felt somewhat ashamed. If her strength hadn't been so weak, the Palace Master probably wouldn't have shown up, right?

If he remembered correctly, when he left the Land of the Extreme Dao, the Palace Master had said that the divine sense within the Primordial Token would only manifest when danger was encountered.

She was sitting obediently in the Chamber of Commerce with her father and the head steward when the Palace Master suddenly appeared!

"In short, this Heavenly Lotus Azure Eye still contains a portion of the power of the Nine Heavens Race, which you can also utilize. Quickly expand the trade routes and make the Primordial Merchant Guild bigger and stronger."

"Bearing the name of the Primordial Hall, it's still just a small restaurant after all this time, it's really outrageous!"

Lin Yu's words made Baili Xuelian blush again.

Indeed, the current situation is far from what Baili Xuelian promised Lin Yu!

"But... I hope the Nine Heavens Race won't come looking for me?" Baili Xuelian asked cautiously, her face contorted with worry.

Perhaps the Palace Master snatched this magical artifact from that Nine Heavens Race. Wouldn't it be bad if it were discovered?

Furthermore, Baili Xuelian also considered another possibility: the people of the Nine Heavens Race might not mean anything to the Palace Master, which is why the Heavenly Lotus Azure Eye could be taken so easily.

But did Baili Xuelian know that she was now no different from an ant in front of the major powers? If they really came knocking on her door, she would have no way to deal with them!

"Don't worry, I've altered the aura and power of this Heavenly Lotus Azure Eye. Even members of the Nine Heavens Race won't be able to recognize it so clearly."

Even if they recognize you, just give them my name, and they won't dare do anything to you!

"Thank you, Your Highness!" Baili Xuelian beamed with joy and bowed happily.

"Okay, that's settled then!" Lin Yu finally turned around after saying that.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Lin Yu turned around, Baili Xuelian seemed to remember something and lowered her head in embarrassment.

Lin Yu immediately felt incredibly embarrassed, and could only add one last thing, "Don't tell Feng Yaoyang about this!"

"Yes, disciple will obey the decree!" Baili Xuelian replied strangely, clearly not understanding the meaning of Lin Yu's words.

However, before Baili Xuelian could ask any more questions, Lin Yu had already disappeared.

Surely we shouldn't tell Feng Yaoyang?

If Feng Yaoyang knew about this, seeing such a stark difference, he would almost burst into tears!

He had to be extremely cautious with his forces, risking being corrupted and devoured before he could use them, but Baili Xuelian had the green light all the way.
