Chapter 1740: Non-Verbal Communication

Wei Wuyin was relaxing in a luxurious palace. He once again sat on his rattan chair, finding it incredibly comfortable, sipping freshly made fruit juice. In his left hand was a spiritual jade tablet that was four times the size of his palm and rectangular. On its surface was spiritual light that formulated characters that rapidly swept across the tablet's flat surface. On the back of the tablet were a few golden characters that said: "Observing Chronicle, Gold Edition."

This was one of the specialty spiritual jades created by the popular news outlet, the Observing Chronicle. Wei Wuyin couldn't resist buying one. Moreover, he bought the most expensive one available. They had 'editions' that ranged from, lowest to highest: bronze, silver, gold, and crystal. Each edition contained access to greater forms of details regarding the topic, but the Crystal Edition would only be given to certain members by the Observing Chronicle's leadership.

The Knightly Dao Pavilion's trifecta to honor Shang Liu's ancient and prosperous lineage involving a competition for one of the most beautiful women in the galaxy was a startling event that alerted countless forces and would occur in twenty-eight days. Moreover, as a pavilion, which was an organization represented by a single entity or a small group, it was renowned for the training of promising Alchemic Knights.

While it wasn't the only organization that delved into the business, within the Refining Skies Galactic Zone, it was the undisputed number one, and its achievements largely backed such a claim. After graduation, a total of four Sages and eleven Mystic Overlords were born over 160,000 years after its founding. A startling feat. Three of those Sages were directly instructed by Pavilion Master Shang Liu!

Numerous Mystic-Rank Alchemists would send over promising youths for training and nurturing, providing resources while the Knightly Dao Pavilion would oversee the timing of distribution and cultivation of arts, spells, and methods. They were quite skilled in training balanced cultivators adept in all forms of combat, yet capable of adjusting their lessons to delve into specialty fields as well, such as Spiritual Specialization or Martial Specialization.

As for Shang Liu's 1,000th wife-to-be, she was his final companion and would become his Dao Companion. According to rumors and verified information from the Observing Chronicle, she was incredibly young and genuinely beautiful. She had entered the Beauties of Catastrophe Ranking only a few hundred years ago, and she had just entered the Mystic Ascendant Realm, and of those rumors, it was said she had a legendary Catalyst Body.

After reading this piece of unspecified information, Wei Wuyin's eyes had focused. Unfortunately, as he kept reading on, the Observing Chronicle was deliberately avoiding providing any substantial clues to her unique body type.

"Yue Songli also has a Pure Catalyst Body. Are those with Catalyst Bodies all world-shocking beauties capable of bringing about the collapse of countless starfields?" Wei Wuyin felt that something was amiss. When he recalled a few obscure details, he couldn't help but instinctively glance at his right arm with a thoughtful light gleaming within his starry eyes.

Suddenly, an alert sounded from outside. Two guests were outside. Wei Wuyin's left eyebrow lifted curiously. Since his conversation with Hao Chengxue had ended, a day or so had passed, and he had already sent Pakhet with Yue Songli, Qing Qiumu, and Wei Si out to explore while Cao Cuifen, Liu Suyin, and Grey Rose went out on their own long before any instruction was given.

Cao Cuifen was a little more independent, and with Grey Rose by her side, she enjoyed socializing and cultivating in new environments. Wei Wuyin didn't have to send her off, and she was already set on visiting the famous landmarks and holy grounds for cultivation within the Tiny Heart Starfield and its neighbors.

The Prime Ascendants were almost all consolidating their cultivation bases, especially Su Mei. Even with the Vortex-Zone's temporal acceleration, they required a lot of time and resources to do so. The Sages were traveling with Luo Ning. He was almost certain that Nepri and Nepit were actively trying to get into her good graces while Imentet watched in amusement. From what he knew, Luo Ning was invited to a Dao Discussion event nearby that was held by Earthly Saint Alchemists. Her presence caused quite a commotion after being accompanied by not one, not two, but three Sages!

That left two—Ming Shufeng and Young Master Shang!

Wei Wuyin gently waved his hand and the door opened revealing those exact two figures. Ming Shufeng wore a troubled look while Young Master Shang was carefree and relaxed.

"Come. Sit." After inviting them inside, Wei Wuyin offered them a drink. This took Ming Shufeng by surprise, but the gesture caused her to relax and she immediately drank a full cup. She released a breath of turbid air and felt utterly relaxed. Young Master Shang didn't hold back either. While it was mixed fruit juice, the materials were all Mystic-Earth grade, creating a precious fruit tonic. Just a sip was enough to rival a few transcendent-quality ninth-grade products.

"What is it you want to tell me?" Wei Wuyin got to the point.

Ming Shufeng felt refreshed by the cool sensation and delicious taste of the juice, and her lips became surprisingly loose as she began: "Your Majesty, since we've gotten here, numerous Divination Spells have been cast. Most of which were extremely powerful and obscure, and I couldn't pinpoint their origin or intent. I don't…know what they gathered.

"As you instructed, I kept my eyes on all of the Prime Ascendants and your…wives. I tried to interfere a few times, but these Heavenly Seers cultivation vastly exceeded my own, so I couldn't do much. I fear if not for the Rod of Absolution, I might have suffered a harsh backlash." She informed while taking out the Rod of Absolution. It was a golden scepter that looked like a double-sided gavel with an oval loop as the head. Beneath the gavel were four horizontal rectangles.

The Rod of Absolution was Sage Amunet's Heavenly Treasure linked to Heaven's Law Realm of Light and had been refined by Amunet's fate energy by unique methods over tens of millennia to forge it into a divination-assisting treasure.

The moment Wei Wuyin had laid eyes on it, he had decided to obtain it as a gift for Wen Mingna, but after obtaining it, he decided that it would be better to acquire the detailed methods of refinement and materials, and forging a unique Heavenly Treasure suited for her cultivation method by commissioning a Heavenly Forger. Since that was the case, he decided to give it to Ming Shufeng.

It was not cheap…not cheap at all.

The ancient and divine aura on the Rod of Absolution was dim and weak. It had clearly been involved in a battle. If not for it, Ming Shufeng might not even have the qualifications to notice those divinations, let alone survive tussling with those elite Heavenly Seers with her cultivation.

"That's fine. Just being there has helped me," Wei Wuyin consoled. Ming Shufeng's eyes brightened. For Wei Wuyin to attempt to console her, meant he was starting to treat her with a degree of closeness! She was barely able to hide her excitement.

Wei Wuyin ignored Ming Shufeng's reaction. "For now, just keep an alert around Yue Songli. Remember every aura that tries to divine information about her. There's no need to try to counter any attempts."

"Got it!" Ming Shufeng energetically replied. She longingly looked at her empty cup and lightly bit her lip. Wei Wuyin chuckled before offering her a jug, sending her off smiling with glee. Young Master Shang had remained silent throughout, only observing.

It was only after Ming Shufeng left that Young Master Shang looked toward Wei Wuyin and saw that there was a faint grin on his face. Young Master Shang awkwardly chuckled. Wei Wuyin sighed in amusement. Young Master Shang slapped his thighs with both hands and puffed. Wei Wuyin lifted his left eyebrow in question. Young Master Shang released a heavy exhale and stared at him. Wei Wuyin released a slight 'hm' from his throat. Young Master Shang diverted his eyes down and to the side.

Wei Wuyin's brows furrowed. Young Master Shang leaned back against his chair, staring at the ceiling dazedly. Wei Wuyin rubbed his lips and chin thoughtfully. Young Master Shang's eyes subtly glanced at Wei Wuyin. Wei Wuyin shrugged with a grunt. Young Master Shang's energy levels skyrocketed as he leaped up to his feet, his eyes gleaming. Wei Wuyin tilted his head and scratched the space between his brow with the back of his thumb. Young Master Shang grinned.

Languidly, Wei Wuyin waved Young Master Shang away with a 'shooing' motion. With a triumphant breath, Young Master Shang took out his flagon and chugged for a solid three seconds before walking out. The door closed behind him.

"What a troublesome fellow," Wei Wuyin lazedly relaxed in his chair. "I guess I should prepare some gifts for this Pavilion Master Shang's celebrations."

The moment those words left his lips, Bai Xiu immediately materialized. She stood on Wei Wuyin's lap and looked at him with incredible interest!

"Concoction?!" A single word was uttered by her and the sheer excitement exuding from her was palpable. Her desire was warranted and justified. Since Wei Wuyin assailed the Mystic Ascendant Realm, reaching the Mystic Star Phase, he had involved himself in many objectives, such as pulling off the greatest galactic heist, fighting against eight Sages, seeking fortune in the Dark Void, and enjoying driving the Minor Elysium.

The Alchemic Dao had been largely given a backseat, and this caused her to be incomparably stifled given that Wei Wuyin's cultivation had reached entirely new limits, especially his Alchemic Akashic Energies and fully completed Celestial Eyes of Spiritual Divinity. Meanwhile, he had acquired a literal galaxy-worth of resources and materials to play with!

More importantly, they had acquired the Resounding Echoes of Celestial Refinement Pill's Mystic-World Concoction Method! While this product's requirements were devastating to societies, Wei Wuyin had long since developed a solution as a mortal!

The requirements for a leaf of a Soul-Bound Flower? OBTAINED!

The need for nine drops of Heaven's Essence Liquid?! This required ten thousand years of effort from Heavenly Saint Phase experts, genuine Original Magistrates, yet Wei Wuyin had seized an ungodly amount of resources from an entire galaxy! Nine drops? When Bai Xiu was excitedly doing inventory, she found thousands upon thousands of Heaven's Essence Liquid!

A Colossal-sized 'natural-born' and 'naturally-grown' Solar Star?! Then refined uniquely by the Nine Ways of Mysticism?! She just had to look at that gigantic ball of flames within Wei Wuyin's Mind's Eye! Even if Little Defiant didn't exist, Wei Wuyin could easily rely on his methods to create a substitute, albeit that might take some time. With it, Wei Wuyin just needed to extract a bit of its Solar Essence as a substitute. It might not even equate to taking a pebble from a mountain given its enormity.

There was also the theory that Wei Wuyin had…about Transcendent Mystic-graded Products!

She was hungry!

Hungry to begin!!

Wei Wuyin couldn't help but feel a little in danger from her feverish eyes. She might take a bite out of his nose if he refused.

"Okay, okay!" He hurriedly sat up and lifted her by the armpits. She was still tiny, so doing so was remarkably easy. She didn't even dare to pout from being carried like this after hearing Wei Wuyin's words. She began to kick her legs with joy and an adorable cure squeal. Wei Wuyin had to resist the urge to pinch her cheeks.

A single Resounding Echoes of Celestial Refinement Pill was said to be the equivalent of ten thousand years of a Sage's cultivation efforts toward one's overall foundation. Moreover, this was from an impure version! The sheer absurdity of that was insane to even imagine! But how much would it benefit his equally absurd cultivation base?
