One month later.

It has been one year and six months and there is still another one year and six months for the next Palace of Inheritance to open in the higher realm.

In this past month, Sam has been recruiting the new people left and right and giving them crash training and creating mercenary groups all over.

In fact, the new mercenary groups appeared in all the empires under all the major powers. But the Major powers still didn't learn from their past ignorance.

They didn't know that these discreet movements of Sam are actually the ones that almost caused a world war between all the top dogs.

This time, Sam didn't even send the mercenaries straight from his place, instead, he recruited them in that same nation and made the mercenary groups there itself which didn't raise too many suspicions.

After all, there are many mercenary groups emerging every day and disappearing every day.

He just occupied some previous mercenaries and didn't even change the name.

He is increasing his force like crazy and within this month, he built a network that is as big as the underground forces that previously existed.

While the situation is like this, Sam got his fifth box from the Beast faction without even paying anything.

Anyway, he is not in a hurry to pay them back.

But all of a sudden, Sam felt like he is a little lost in the current situation.

He thought that the boxes would be difficult to obtain. But this turned out to be one of the easier than he thought.

He wanted to tear down the major powers for these things if he has to, to obtain them.

But before he knew it as soon as he took down a major power and three associations, he already got what he wanted.

The last box is in the hands of the thunder god temple.

He is sure that he can deal with them sooner or later.

At this moment, he is currently contemplating what to do.

Should he still destroy the Major powers completely? But then, he would have to go through the situation in which he has to take care of the people's needs.

After all, if he really decided to take on the authority and eliminate it, he would be the one who would be responsible for the consequences of the chaos that follows the destruction of the authority.

There is no need to make life difficult for himself.

At this current position, he has all kinds of metals and materials available at his beck and calls and anything on this planet would be available for him in a week.

So, he is thinking about whether he should still proceed with the plan he made before.

He decided to leave it at that for the moment. Anyway, since he got so much time on his hands, he might as well try and see if he can go to the next realm earlier. He might be able to get a feel of the new world he would be entering and get some foothold if possible.

As he is contemplating this, he got some news that the Old Thunder wants to discuss a business deal with him and sent Arthur as a representative.

When Sam heard this, he wasn't completely surprised.

This is already one of the results he expected from the situation Arman is putting Arthur in.

After all, Arman is thirty points deficits when compared to Arthur and it wouldn't be too hard for him to make them up.

So, it is impossible for Old Thunder to not give him chances. In fact, this is one of his ploys.

No matter, how much better Arman might be as a future heir candidate, he would never stay in this place and he couldn't stay in this place. He has to move to higher realms and if possible, he has a chance to go to a place where the greatest of gods reside.

Why would he decide to stay on this rundown planet?

Sam knew this perfectly well and that is why he didn't take any key administration role in the organization no matter how big it was.

Anyway, coming back to Arthur's situation, since Arman cannot stay and even Sam knew it but he still tried his best to get this future heir position, then Arthur will also try to compete and Sam would be the best bet.

In other words, Arthur is in front of him right now, because Sam willed him to be here. He manipulated the major powers without even them knowing that he has his eyes on them.

Sam went to meet with Arthur, this guy still has the same tense expression when he spoke to him.

"Hello Sam, I will get straight to the point. We want to do a business deal with you and that is regarding the Parks. We only recently learned that the designs that the three associations provided are stolen from you, we deeply regret doing business with them.

Now, if you can tell us the design charges, we would pay you and you can further ask for the payment regarding the activation and management."

Sam chuckled as soon as he heard that.

"Arthur, you seem to have rehearsed the lines quite well, who taught them to you? Your father or some other elder?" When he asked this Arthur suddenly felt a bit afraid. Sam's voice turned cold as he continued.

"Recently learned? Deeply regret? Don't make me laugh. Do you guys think that I am oblivious to what is happening between the six major powers? Do you guys really nit know what happened? Seems like you must have met Clark otherwise, why would you even bother to meet me?

You guys might think that I can't come out and knock on your door because I would lose the protection of my city, but your father must have forgotten that I spent more than three months in your thunder god temple and definitely didn't remember what I could do in three months.

Seems like the Beast faction is not really that great of an impact.

You better re-evaluate the situation and rearrange the words better. You can leave now."

With that, Sam didn't even wait for the response and left the place.

Arthur was stunned. He expected that Sam would reject this, but he didn't expect that he would be this stern and this stubborn.

He outright didn't leave any room for negotiation.

But the remaining major powers are in an even more difficult situation, at least the thunder god temple has an opportunity to probe Sam's stance in this situation, but the rest are not even getting any access to meet him directly because of the thunder god temple.

They are all thinking that It would have been great if there is a Space gate between them and Sam's city, one must wonder what they would feel when their empires are connected to them by Space gates.

After a few days, once again someone came to Sam's city from the thunder god temple.

This time, Arthur and another person came, Moriya. The elder with most Prospects came with the future heir.

He is already a Pre-transcendent stage cultivator which is not much surprising to Sam.

"We apologize for disturbing you and also for the fact that we have cooperated with the three associations on the park matter. But it is not our intent to steal your hard work and make money off of it.

It was just a slight moment of greed that we could save money from working with the associations and we knew our mistake.

I hope you can be the bigger man and forgive us.

This is a small token of our apology."

With that, he placed a spatial ring on the table. Sam took the spatial ring took a peek into it.

This is something he expected the last box of the six is inside the ring. He looked at Moriya and asked.

"Apology accepted. Is that all?"

"No. We want to have an opportunity to cooperate with you in the park business. We have invested a lot and most of the construction was complete. But we couldn't activate it. We want to discuss a partnership with you."

"Five percent. If you guys want to cooperate with me, you can only get five percent. All the staff would be mine and no one from the thunder god temple can involve themselves in any form of administrative and financial affairs of the parks."

"Sam, you are cutting us too short don't you think? We have made the construction completely and it cost hundreds of millions in each and all of it is worth only five percent?

We need at least fifty percent of the stake."

"You think too highly of the construction you made. There is no way you would be able to anything with the parks you have made even if you activate them.

Because the construction was not complete, to begin with.

Like I would let the whole plan fall into the hands of those guys. There is still some core construction that was yet to be completed."

"How can that be? Some parks in the Usaine sect are activated,"

"Then what happened? They should have exploded already."

Moriya couldn't help but widen his eyes. Now they understood the whole matter. It seems like that the fifty percent is but a pipe dream.
