Chapter 1437: Chapter 690: Escape (Part 3)

Thinking of this,

Wind Divine Monarch’s thoughts underwent a dramatic transformation. He was considering how to retain Chen Mu and have him remain with the Wind Association. Even if it meant being subordinate to Chen Mu, he didn’t mind. After all, in the vast universe, strength was paramount. Chen Mu’s power was already above his, and with Chen Mu overseeing the Wind Association, more gains could be reaped in the hunts, securing greater benefits in the future.

“This Creation Lineage, I have only recently begun to comprehend, and now I have barely caught up with Brother Wind’s pace. From Brother Wind’s methods, I observe a trace of Time Mysterious. It seems Brother Wind is not far from achieving Three Veins Perfection.”

Chen Mu responded to Wind Divine Monarch’s gratitude with a calm expression, his demeanor as usual.

Wind Divine Monarch shook his head and said somewhat wistfully, “Ashamedly, this Time Lineage is indeed extremely difficult to comprehend. Long before founding the Wind Association, I had mastered both the Void and Creation veins. Yet, after founding the Wind Association and cultivating in Wuxiang City for hundreds of epochs, I still have a way to go before fully understanding the Time Lineage.”

Chen Mu also nodded slightly and said, “The Time Lineage is indeed quite difficult.”

He agreed with this point. After all, while refining Source Stones and comprehending the Great Dao, he felt that the Daoist charm was on the same level, but his accumulation of Experience in the Creation Lineage was clearly much faster than with the Time Lineage.

To fully comprehend the Time Lineage, it would take at least another two or three epochs.

Wind Divine Monarch smiled and then said seriously, “Our escape from the crisis this time was all due to Brother Chen’s intervention. Given Brother Chen’s current strength, distributing the gains as before is no longer reasonable. In future hunts, if Brother Chen leads the team, he should receive sixty percent of the gains, while I would only take twenty percent. What does Brother Chen think?”

Originally, Chen Mu’s share of the gains was only ten percent of the total. But now that Chen Mu had demonstrated the power of Double Vein Perfection, surpassing Wind Divine Monarch, and almost single-handedly capable of matching the entire Wind Association, the previous distribution ratio naturally became inappropriate.

Moreover, Wind Divine Monarch wasn’t sure if Chen Mu had any intention of leaving the Wind Association, and he wouldn’t ask directly—he only proposed a new distribution standard. If Chen Mu accepted, it would indicate his intention to stay in the Wind Association.

“Very well.”

Chen Mu nodded slightly after hearing Wind Divine Monarch’s words.

Since he had achieved the Creation Lineage and displayed his strength, an increase in the distribution of resources was naturally justified. With more Source Stone resources, he could reduce the frequency of hunting trips, allowing him to focus more time on refining Source Stones and comprehending the Great Dao.

Wind Divine Monarch then looked toward the other Divine Monarchs in the Wind Association. Changing the resource distribution ratio naturally required their input, but this time, no one objected. Even Guanglie Divine Monarch, who had raised objections when Chen Mu first joined the Wind Association, now looked at Chen Mu with a hint of admiration.

In terms of Realm, everyone was at the Nine Layer Heavens Perfection, and even when faced with a Double Vein Perfection, they wouldn’t harbor feelings of awe. But in the universe, strength was supreme. Chen Mu’s strength was considerably overwhelming, especially since he had previously intercepted the Black Snake Beast, allowing the Wind Association members to escape. Naturally, everyone was genuinely convinced of Chen Mu, with no objections even with him taking sixty percent of the gains—a considerable share.

After all, if Chen Mu stayed in the Wind Association, the hunting range would expand under his leadership, and each hunt could capture more than just seven or eight Exotic Beasts. They could aim for a dozen or more, meaning the gains they ultimately received wouldn’t change much, and the entire hunting operation would proceed more smoothly.
