Chapter 385: Back to Divine Sky Realm
After hearing Lein's response, the elders' eyes sparkled with hope. Some exchanged glances, small smiles appearing on faces that had previously been tense. There was an undeniable sense of relief, like morning dew settling on dry grass after a long drought. Many of them had left families behind in the Divine Sky Realm, and now, through this portal, they would have the chance to reunite in a more honorable position.
Seeing the elders growing excited, Lein raised his hand slightly into the air—a small gesture that immediately drew everyone's attention. "Calm down, calm down," he said in a gentle yet authoritative tone. The crowd quickly quieted, their focus returning to Lein and the holographic panel, which now displayed the next agenda point.
"Alright, the next point we'll discuss is the quality of goods…" Lein continued, then asked, "How is the quality of goods available in the shop? Are they satisfactory to the customers?"
The question immediately triggered light murmurs among the elders and supervisors. One elder, a man with a thin beard and a face full of experience, stood to represent the others. "In general, customers are very satisfied, Lord," he replied confidently. "However, there are some high-level items that are often sought after but unavailable in our stock."
Lein nodded slowly, signaling the elder to continue. "For example, rare plant seeds from the Guandu realm or high-tier materials for alchemists from the Divine Sky Realm. These items are in high demand, but their supply is limited or even nonexistent," he added cautiously, clearly trying not to sound like he was complaining.
Several other elders chimed in, listing additional items frequently requested by customers.
Nearly all the reports from the elders and supervisors pertained to authentic items from the Guandu realm. Lein realized he would need to conduct a survey and duplicate the authentic items from the Guandu realm to sell them back.
The discussion lasted for two intense hours. Lein explained a new strategy for the seed shop, aiming to target higher markets and create greater opportunities for the alliance. Some elders and supervisors actively asked questions, particularly about the organizational structure and role distribution. They also wanted to ensure that the cooperation with the Guandu race would proceed smoothly and be mutually beneficial.
After all the points had been sufficiently discussed, Lein concluded the meeting with a voice that was firm yet relaxed, "Alright, we'll end the meeting here. Elder Joko will handle the next steps." Lein glanced at Elder Joko, who sat calmly in the middle row.
For a moment, the room fell silent. One elder took a deep breath and then said in agreement, "Elder Joko? That makes sense."
His statement was followed by nods of approval from other elders, who then congratulated Joko. His new position as the leader of the seed shop headquarters in the Guandu realm was both a great responsibility and a high honor.
Lein stood from his seat and gave a commanding tone, "You may return to your groups. In one hour, this room will be closed." After speaking, Lein disappeared from his spot, leaving an impression of awe among the meeting participants.
Lein reappeared at the peak of a mountain, where a soft breeze gently blew around him. He observed the activities of the seed shop workers with his divine consciousness. From his surveillance, he saw thousands of workers had left the mountain area to hunt monsters and search for hidden treasures. This mountain, with all its riches, was now regarded as more than just a trial ground for renowned sects.
"Haha, they're really active. It's a blessing for them," Lein murmured, smiling slightly as he folded his arms across his chest. His gaze was calm as he watched every movement below.
After a while, Lein ended his surveillance mode and became aware of the presence of Madam Fatmawati, Bagus, and Laras, who were now standing not far from him.
"Well, Madam? Has everything been collected?" Lein asked while glancing at the stack of papers in Fatmawati's hands.
"Yes, Sir. With their help, everything became much easier," Fatmawati replied with a friendly smile. She glanced at the twenty workers busy behind her.
Lein nodded in satisfaction. "Good…" he said, short but full of appreciation. He then shifted his gaze to Bagus and Laras.
"You already know my plan from the previous meeting," Lein continued in a serious tone. "Next, you will represent me to do the same in other realms."

Bagus and Laras listened attentively, their faces showing strong determination.
"Don't worry, Brother Lein. I will carry out this task as best as I can," said Bagus enthusiastically, his eyes reflecting a firm resolve.
"Alright, Brother Lein. I won't disappoint you," Laras responded seriously. Her face showed confidence mixed with pride for finally being entrusted with an important task by Lein.
Lein nodded calmly. "Regarding the reports you will need, feel free to ask and learn from Madam Fatmawati," he said casually, his eyes glancing at Fatmawati standing nearby.
"Understood. Is there anything else you would like to ask? If not, we will return," Lein added, sweeping his gaze across the group.
No one responded. With a light gesture, Lein directed everyone to leave Peace Mountain, the place he had created as a center of tranquility and strategy. They returned to the seed shop, their starting point before entering the site.
"It's now eight in the evening in the Guandu realm. We need to rest for tomorrow's event," Lein explained. He opened a large portal, glowing brightly with golden lines swirling like a vortex.
Bagus, Laras, and the others entered the portal in an orderly manner.

Divine Sky Realm - Multi-Dimensional Teleportation
From within the multidimensional portal, Laras and her group emerged one by one, stepping onto the blue-lit floor. Finally, Lein appeared with a relaxed stride, his gaze sweeping the surroundings to ensure everything went smoothly.
After confirming everyone was present, Lein spoke in a tone that was serious yet friendly. "Bagus and Laras, adjust the development plans for the seed shop in other realms as soon as possible. Don't forget to attend tomorrow's event."
"Understood, Brother Lein," replied Bagus, followed by a firm nod from Laras.
