Chapter 55: Realizing Financial Freedom

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

Of course, the news was just a rumor. After all, Fu Yunzi had yet to make an official appearance.

However, according to the intense analysis and discussion of the passers-by, since Fu Yunzi had come out of seclusion, there was a high chance that he had broken through to the Core Transformation Realm.

Every time he heard the term ‘Core Transformation Realm’, Cheng Xu would be deeply confused.

He staggered all the way to the Jian Chamber of Commerce, and the scene in front of him really gave him a fright.

The Jian Chamber of Commerce’s shop was filled with people inside and outside, and the number of people was still expanding.

“D*mn, so many people?” While Cheng Xu was secretly shocked, he whispered to the people beside him, “Fellow Daoist, what is everyone doing?”

It can’t be. Doesn’t Fellow Daoist know? The Jian Chamber of Commerce recently launched a super powerful multi-purpose Array Disk. It has long spread among the circle of cultivators who study array formations!”

“Array Disk?” Cheng Xu was slightly stunned and could not believe it.

This…Was it popular?

Before he came, he was still worried about whether the Array Disks could be sold out. He did not expect such an outcome.

One had to know that the cultivation world was not like the Earth in his previous life, where there were all kinds of information transmission platforms. It was very difficult to open up a market for a brand new product.

Is it because my technical skills are too awesome, or is it because the Jian Chamber of Commerce’s marketing is too good?”

Looking at the crowd outside the shop, Cheng Xu did not dare to go in to discuss business.

If people knew that he was the Jian Chamber of Commerce’s Array Disk supplier, he would not be able to leave even if he wanted to.

Just as Cheng Xu was struggling with how to proceed with the next transaction, the waiter who was maintaining order at the entrance of the shop quickly discovered Cheng Xu’s figure and quietly went back to report to the shopkeeper.

Then, the shop assistant squeezed out from the crowd.

“I’m sorry, Immortal Master. There have been too many customers in the shop recently. We’ve already packed the materials you asked for.”

Cheng Xu wasn’t stupid. He immediately pretended to follow him

After entering through the back door, he was brought to the attic in the backyard by the waiter.

“Fellow Daoist Xu, are you a fellow Daoist?” A familiar voice came from the front hall of the attic.” I’m Jian Yuxiang. Please forgive me for not welcoming you.”

The moment he saw Jian Yuxiang, Cheng Xu staggered and almost tripped over the threshold.

Good heavens, when did Jian Yuxiang come to Floating Immortal City?

If it wasn’t for his quick thinking, he would have called her Senior Sister Jian.

Seeing Cheng Xu’s strange reaction, Jian Yuxiang thought that he didn’t know her identity. “Brother Xu, don’t worry. My father has already given my sister full authority over the cooperation.”

After saying that, he respectfully gestured for Cheng Xu to sit down.

Cheng Xu was embarrassed. After all, she was his senior sister. He felt that something was wrong.

Cheng Xu awkwardly sat down and pretended. “That… He had long heard that the daughter of the Jian Chamber of Commerce was talented and intelligent, and her appearance was extraordinary. Now that he saw her today, she really lived up to her reputation.”

“Brother Xu must be joking.” Jian Yuxiang smiled and curiously asked, “I heard from Shopkeeper Niu that your master has some relationship with my Jian Chamber of Commerce? I wonder if it’s true or not?”

Uh, anyway, that’s what the Master said. I’m not too sure about the details.”

“I see…” Jian Yuxiang was secretly puzzled. “i wonder if I can have the honor of meeting you, Senior? To be honest, the Chamber of Commerce values Senior very much. As long as Senior is willing to join the Chamber of Commerce, Senior can name any conditions.”

“Cough cough, forget about this matter. My master has devoted his entire life to studying Array formations and Artifact Refinement. He doesn’t like to show his face in public.”

“That’s a pity.”

At this time, Master Yuan and Shopkeeper Niu, who were dealing with the customers at the shop, finally got out of their way and rushed over.

“Haha… Brother Xu, you’re finally here!” Master Yuan was so enthusiastic that he didn’t want to accept it. Judging from the identity card of the Chamber of Commerce on his waist, his status had obviously risen by quite a bit. “You might not know this, but our Array Disks were sold out in less than two days after we put them out. These days, there’s a long queue outside the shop every day, just waiting for Brother Xu to come.”

Shopkeeper Niu also took the opportunity to flatter Cheng Xu, making him feel embarrassed.

“Cough, that… Let’s talk about cooperation, shall we?”

“Right, right, right. Let’s talk about cooperation first.” Master Yuan winked at Jian Yuxiang and sat down.

“I wonder how many Array Disks Brother Xu has brought this time?” Jian Yuxiang asked with a smile.

“Including the remaining ten sets from last time, there are a total of thirty sets.”

Master Yuan and Shopkeeper Niu were pleasantly surprised.

“In terms of price, do you have any requests, Brother Xu?” Jian Yuxiang continued to ask, “With the current situation, Brother Xu can raise the price a little.”

Just like last time, 50,000 per set.”

Hearing this, Jian Yuxiang and the other two were secretly shocked.

“Brother Xu, are you sure you don’t want to raise the price?” Master Yuan was surprised. “To tell you the truth, last time 1 was in a hurry, so 1 couldn’t see the true value of the Array Disk. In my opinion, it wouldn’t be too much to sell your Array Disk for more than 70,000.”

“70,000 yuan per set?” Cheng Xu was surprised and delighted. “This way, I’m afraid your Chamber of Commerce won’t make much profit, right?”

“Brother Xu is worrying too much. Based on the current situation, there are many people willing to spend 70,000 to buy your formation disk. As long as we can establish a long-term cooperative relationship with you, our Chamber of Commerce would rather earn less profit.” Jian Yuxiang chuckled.”

Cheng Xu suppressed the excitement in his heart. This was the rhythm of completely solving his financial freedom!

“I wonder what kind of long-term cooperation is?”

“Very simple. Brother Xu only needs to provide twenty sets of formation disks to our Chamber of Commerce every month.”

Sure, no problem.”

“Then it’s settled. If there’s a chance, I’d like to visit the old seniors personally.”

Jian Yuxiang was satisfied. She didn’t expect things to go so smoothly.

After a round of pleasantries, Cheng Xu took out all 30 sets of Array Disks and successfully received a huge sum of 1,500,000 Spiritual Stones.

At the very least, he would not have to worry about Spirit Stones for a long time.

“Right, Brother Xu, 1 wonder if Senior can make a Level 3 multi-purpose Array Disk?” Master Yuan asked after he finished inspecting the goods.

“This… My master has been researching the structure of a level 3 Array Disk.

After he succeeds, he will naturally prioritize cooperating with your Chamber of Commerce.”

Hearing Cheng Xu’s promise, Jian Yuxiang and the other two were naturally overjoyed. They immediately asked Cheng Xu to stay and hold a banquet to entertain them.

At the dining table, the topic of Senior Fu Yunzi coming out of seclusion was brought up.

“I heard that Senior Fu Yunzi is going to come out of seclusion soon.”

“The source of the news is very reliable. It should be true. However, if Senior Fu Yunzi really broke through to the Core Transformation Realm as the rumors say, then Floating Immortal City will probably be in chaos for a period of time.”

Cheng Xu nodded.

Yuntai Zhenren had mentioned before that after Little Southern Heaven Cultivators broke through to the Core Transformation Realm, they would go to the Great Southern Wasteland to cultivate.

When Fu Yunzi leaves, there would be no one left to hold the fort in Floating Immortal City.

“Oh right, does your Chamber of Commerce have materials like Green Sea Conches?” Cheng Xu asked.

“Green Sea Conch?” Jian Yuxiang was slightly startled and frowned. “Brother Xu, do you need a Green Sea Conch?”

“That’s right.”

“This Green Sea Conch is a material from sea beasts, and we don’t have a sea area in Mini Nantian,” Jian Yuxiang said, “However, our Jian Chamber of Commerce does have trade caravans with the Great Southern Wasteland. There should be a group of trade caravans from the Great Southern Wasteland coming back soon. If there are Green Sea Conches, we will definitely keep them for Brother Xu.”

Cheng Xu was surprised and delighted. “Your Chamber of Commerce has dealings with the Great Southern Wilderness?”

“If the Chamber of Commerce wants to develop, it’s inevitable that they’ll take risks,” Jian Yuxiang said with a smile.

“What kind of place is the Great Southern Wasteland?” Cheng Xu was filled with curiosity.

“The land is vast, the Spiritual energy is abundant, and the history is much thicker than Mini Southern Heaven.”Jian Yuxiang’s eyes revealed some yearning.” Unfortunately, the Ancient Desolate Demon Region is in between. It’s very difficult to establish normal communication with that side.”

Cheng Xu nodded slightly. He could not help but feel a strong interest in the Great Southern Wilderness.

After the dinner, both sides chatted happily.

Before he left, Jian Yuxiang had asked the shopkeeper to prepare a batch of talisman papers and refining materials for Cheng Xu for free.

Cheng Xu, who came out of the Jian Chamber of Commerce, was in a good mood.

Not only did he have a huge sum of 1.5 million, but he had also taken a batch of talisman papers and materials for nothing. He would not need to purchase talisman papers and Formation materials for a long time in the future.

He continued to walk around Floating Immortal City, but unfortunately, he did not find any valuable books.

On the way back, Cheng Xu stepped on his flying sword and hummed the most flamboyant ethnic style. He was in a good mood.

“Hmm?”

His sharp divine sense faintly sensed that someone was following him, and his entire person instantly became vigilant.

However, when he detected the person following him, his expression became strange. It was actually an acquaintance.

Cheng Xu could naturally guess the other party’s intentions. He immediately threw out a few light talismans and stuck them on the flying sword, speeding up and leaving the other party a distance away. After confirming that he was out of the range of the other party’s divine sense, he used the disguise technique to restore his appearance. He draped the Medicine Immortal Valley robe on his body and hung the identity card on his waist. He also changed the flying sword under his feet. Then, he changed his direction and flew back in the direction of Floating Immortal City at a moderate speed.

“Eh? Brother Cheng!”

Wang Xiaolun, who was chasing after him, was stunned.

“Isn’t this Brother Wang from the Scorching Sun Sect? What are you…?” Cheng Xu slowed down and asked with interest.

ii

Did you see a Foundation Establishment Cultivator just now?” Wang Xiaolun asked seriously.”

“Is he flying fast?”

“Yes, yes, yes, that’s the bro. Where did he go?”

“Brother Wang has a grudge against that person?” Cheng Xu pretended to be puzzled.

H

Uh, this matter is a long story. I’ll explain it to you in the future when I have the chance. Quickly tell me where that person went?”

Cheng Xu pretended to point in a random direction.

“Thank you, brother. I’ll treat you to a drink someday!”

Wang Xiaolun cupped his fists and thanked him before hurriedly chasing after the air.

Watching Wang Xiaolun fly away, Cheng Xu couldn’t help but snicker.

It was obvious that the Scorching Sun Sect had begun to investigate the source of the Jian Chamber of Commerce’s Array Disks. Anyone who came out of the Jian Chamber of Commerce would be targeted in secret.

“Looks like I’ll have to change the way 1 trade in the future.”

Cheng Xu chuckled as he changed his direction and flew towards the Medicine Immortal Valley.

However, after flying for a short distance, a sharp killing intent suddenly attacked from behind.

“There are still people?”

Cheng Xu’s heart thumped wildly, and he hurriedly activated his Protective Upstanding Qi to defend himself. At the same time, he swung his sword and turned around to block.

“Boom!”

A terrifying Blood Qi shockwave struck, knocking Cheng Xu back dozens of meters.

Looking closely, it turned out to be the Demoness of the Blood Demon Church, Xu Lu, who had disguised her appearance..
