Chapter 1359 – Developments 

The Cross Sword Pirate Group was very beneficial to six realms . Not to mention their reputation, even their location was a huge attraction to the other realms .

The position of the Cross Sword Pirate group was at the border of the Machine Field and the Cultivation Realm . It was farther to the Cultivation Realm and nearer to the Machine Field . This position was quite crucial .

Because it was the intersection of the two realms, whether it be the Machine Field or the Cultivation Realm, nobody dared to send too many personnel to deal with them . Otherwise, it might cause a reaction from the other realm . It was also for this reason that the Pirate Paradise existed .  

The Pirate Paradise’s location was very useful for both the Machine Field and the Cultivation Realm, even the other realms deemed it as important . It was for this reason that a lot of powers had reached their hands into the region . It was even beginning to be called the miniature World of Cultivation .

The Cross Sword Pirate Group was the biggest influence in this region . Anybody wanted to absorb such an influence . Once one gets the Cross Sword Pirate Group into their fold, then they could cause disturbances in the Machine Field and the Cultivation Realm . This was something that no realm wanted to let go off .

For this reason, a lot of people currently had their eyes on the Cross Sword Pirate Group . If any sign of disturbance was seen on the group, people would immediately react .

Recently, the Cross Sword Pirate Group began attacking people lurking near them . This caused the entire Pirate Paradise to turn anxious . The eyes of the realms couldn’t help but turn their directions towards the pirate group . They didn’t know what the Cross Sword Pirate Group was planning to do .

Besides eliminating spies, the Cross Sword Pirate Group were also beginning to go into high alert . All non-members of the pirate group weren’t allowed to enter their territory . Otherwise, they would be met by an attack .

Naturally, Louis and the others already thought of an excuse for their actions . They said that the Cross Sword Pirate Group has been stolen from and they had lost something important . They said that they were now pursuing the thief with all their strength .

Nobody could find out if such an excuse was genuine or fake . This was because the Cross Sword Pirate Group had already removed all spies inside them . Moreover, in addition to blocking the external world from looking in, Louis also imposed an internal blockade towards all of their members . Without valid reason, they couldn’t go out of their room and randomly stroll .

Even if their actions stopped any spies from looking in, people were thinking that the Cross Sword Pirate Group were truly catching thieves . Moreover, this action would also make those spies that hadn’t been caught to come out . If they begin asking around, they would no wonder be arrested and dealt with by Louis .

Actually, during this time, Louis and the others have already begun their migration to Yalei 2 . The first group to move were the  families of Louis and the others . These people were the most trusted people in the group . Once they migrated to the planet, they began to familiarize themselves with the environment . This way, they could help the others who would migrate in the future . They would provide security for people who moved . After all, nothing makes one feel more relieved than a familiar face .

Once people began pouring into Yalei 2, the residences prepared for them were beginning to be given out along with various living necessities . In the Pirate Paradise, cars were also very common . The Cross Sword Pirate Group even designed their own cars . After all, there were too many people in the group . Moreover, they had sensitive identities and they couldn’t just go out and buy from the outside . So there are a lot of things that they built themselves .

After the first batch of people moved to Yalei 2, Margaret and the others immediately gave them their own identification cards . This ID card was the same as the Machine Field . Not only did it indicate one’s status, it also acted as a bank card . This card was a very ordinary item in the Machine Field . But when Margaret and the others handed the ID cards, those from the Cross Sword Pirate Group cried in happiness . This card was their dream for several generations . With this card, they were no longer pirates and they can now act in the open . They could now walk the lands of the Machine Field without fear .

At this point, the transmission formation of Yalei 2 revolved nonstop from dawn to dusk . However, the biggest use of the transmission formation wasn’t the transfer of people . Instead, it was mostly used to transport items .

The Cross Sword Pirate Group was among the oldest pirate groups in the Pirate Paradise . Several generations of plundering merchant caravans made them very wealthy . Louis also thought that they had to transport these riches first if they move to Yalei 2 . This way, if ever the Pirate Paradise falls, these things wouldn’t fall into the hands of other people . Second, they could hand these over to Zhao Hai as proof of allegiance . They wished that Zhao Hai would know how sincere they were in wishing to move to Yalei 2 .

Zhao Hai understood what Louis and the others were thinking, so he didn’t stop them . But since he didn’t want these riches, he gave Louis and the others some warehouses to store these things .

Because Louis and the others did a good job in hiding the migration, nobody knew what the Cross Sword Pirate Group were doing . This was what Zhao Hai appreciated the most .

Zhao Hai also fulfilled his promise . As people were streaming into Yalei 2, he also replaced them with Undead .

Seeing the operation in Yalei 2 going smoothly, Zhao Hai felt relieved . As for the materials needed in Yalei 2, Zhao Hai didn’t worry about it . With the Space providing what was needed, things went on smoothly .



Besides moving the Cross Sword Pirate Group, Zhao Hai was also paying attention to Huang Daoran’s situation . On the day that he met Zhen Ling, Zhao Hai handed her a spatial bag with a silver needle . But actually, it couldn’t be called a silver needle, more like a silver thread . This thread looked the same as a silver needle .

When Zhen Ling received the spatial bag, the silver thread attached to her body . Now, Zhao Hai was able to monitor her progress .

Since Zhen Ling has decided to leave and go on her own a long time ago, she already did a lot of preparations . Some shopkeepers and people from the Pink Clouds Pavilion had already been pulled over by Zhen Ling . They were people loyal to her . But since she didn’t want to have a falling out with the Pink Clouds Pavilion yet, she hasn’t made any major moves .

However, she still regarded Zhao Hai’s requests with importance . She began preparing things to be given to Zhao Hai . It didn’t take long before she amassed various ores as well as medicinal plants . Moreover, each one of them were rare and valuable .


From Zhao Hai’s request, she focused on variety instead of quantity . The medicinal plants were placed in a jade box to preserve them .

Naturally these items were also written down . But even if the auditors of the Pink Clouds Pavilion were the ones writing them down, they wouldn’t be able to find anything . After all, the Pink Clouds Pavilion was a huge entity . The goods exchanging hands throughout the group was colossal . A small transfer of goods wouldn’t alert anyone .

Moreover, these goods were paid for by Zhao Hai . This also allowed Zhen Ling to easily make transactions without any mistake . At the same time, Huang Daoran was working on establishing connections with the Profound Clear Sect . He sent Feng Baiming jade sword messages as they exchanged words with each other .

Looking at Huang Daoran, things seem to be going smoothly . The Profound Clear Sect was very interested in the business . Although the Profound Clear Sect was very big, their appetite for money was similarly big . They were naturally happy to have an extra business to increase their income .

Because of Feng Baiming, the Profound Clear Sect had no words to say about cooperating with Zhen Ling . They didn’t even question the source of the Spirit Wine .

The Profound Clear Sect was well aware about why Zhen Ling decided to work with them . It was so that the sect would provide the business some protection . The Profound Clear Sect wasn’t new to these things . In fact, Great Sects like them repeatedly went into such transactions . The only difference was the size of the cut they would take from the profits . As for Zhen Ling’s business, the Profound Clear Sect was to take the least they could . After all, they had to consider Feng Baiming’s face . Moreover, there’s also Huang Daoran standing behind her .

The Profound Clear Sect already sent someone to discuss matters with Zhen Ling . This was also the time that Zhen Ling prepared to leave the Pavilion and go on her own .



During this time, Zhao Hai met Huang Daoran and Zhen Ling once more . Zhen Ling gave him the medicinal plants and ores that he ordered . Zhao Hai also handed over ten thousand bottles of spirit wine . Just like Huang Daoran said, these wines have been placed inside jade bottles . The jade used was top quality, making the wine look elegant and expensive .

The profit allocation of the spirit wine has also been decided . Since the spirit wine and its container has been provided by Zhao Hai, the division would be 4 to 3 to 3 . Zhao Hai would have four shares, Zhen Ling would have three, and the Profound Clear Sect would have three .

One shouldn’t underestimate an allocation of forty percent . In terms of pure profit, this forty percent was huge . One must know that Zhao Hai produced spirit wine with zero initial cost . While Zhao Hai’s price given to Zhen Ling was 100 crystal stones .

Zhao Hai might think that this price wasn’t low . But to Zhen Ling and Huang Daoran, it was too cheap . However, Zhao Hai wasn’t planning to increase the price . Otherwise, no money would be made . One shouldn’t be too greedy .

The jade bottle can only hold one catty(500g) . And one bottle of spirit wine costs 100 crystals . This was already expensive . One must know that 100 crystal stones was already a lot of money for Rogue Cultivators .

After handing the spirit wine over to Zhen Ling, Zhao Hai no longer cared about this matter . He didn’t need to help in selling it nor did he intend to appear in the Cultivation Realm . So he took this time to relax .

Whether it be the Cultivation Realm or the Machine Field, nobody knew that Zhao Hai’s influence was starting to be established .

Yalei 2 simply wasn’t worthy of paying attention to . For the Machine Field, the planet was a wasteland . Moreover, seeing that Zhao Hai wasn’t going there, nobody cared about it .

Since Zhao Hao was known to be in the Six Realms Battlefield, he needed to appear there from time to time . But he didn’t have much to worry about there since everything was being taken care of by Yuan and the others . Yuan was also aware that Zhao Hai was somewhat busy lately, so he didn’t disturb him . If things didn’t need Zhao Hai’s help, then Yuan wouldn’t disturb him .  

Zhao Hai was now the Supreme Commander of the Machine Field . This caused Yuan and the others to be happy . But this also caused them to worry .



They were happy because the Machine Field now has a powerful expert protecting them . Later on, the other realms would think twice if they wanted to attack the Machine Field’s Domain . On the other hand, now that Zhao Hai has become a powerful expert, the Machine Field now had nobody to protect them in the core battlefield .

Regarding Zhao Hai’s new status, Yuan and the others protested about it to the higher-ups . However, the higher-ups told them that they couldn’t’ do anything about it . This had something to do with the demands of the other realms .

Yuan and the others understood that the other realms were putting pressure on the Machine Field’s higher ups . In the end, the higher-ups could only make a compromise .  

However, this was also good since the Lock Mountain Range has become peaceful . This peace also extended to the realm’s partially controlled territory . Now, other realms rarely caused any trouble there .

As for Zhao Hai’s visit to the Pirate Paradise, extremely few people were aware of it . The meeting between Zhao Hai, Huang Daoran, and Zhen Ling was even more confidential . Therefore, Zhao Hai became silent in this period of time . Once no more news appeared about him, the people began forgetting Zhao Hai .

Zhao Hai was happy with this situation . It’s better if they forgot about him . Now, he wouldn’t have to worry about people’s eyes looking at him . Such a life wasn’t for him .

Originally, Zhao Hai was planning on moving Zheng Li and the others to Yalei 2 . However, Yalei 2’s defense system had yet to be constructed . At this time, the planet was virtually defenseless . Therefore, Zhao Hai cancelled this plan . Once the defense system has been constructed, he would discuss it with Zheng Li and the others .

As for Yalei 2’s Undead, they were slowly being replaced by the Cross Sword Pirate Group’s members .

Although there were a lot of robots in the Machine Field, they were still far from replacing humans . Take farming for example . Only a few people used robots to farm . They were too procedural in their actions . If you let a robot farm the land, one’s harvest wouldn’t be good . This was because robots would plant seeds in a predetermined way, water them at the same time per day, and remove weeds in a regular manner . Such a procedure wouldn’t work in farming . After all, growing plants needed to take into consideration the environment, and other factors . Everything depends on the surrounding lands . Farming with predetermined commands wouldn’t work .

Herding animals was also the same . Except, people would often use mechs . Therefore, mech pilots of the Cross Sword Pirate Group still had something they could enjoy doing .
