Chapter 581: Chapter 554: The Sharp Change in Huangshan【Thanks to the Anti-guide Fusion Control leader for becoming the first alliance leader of this book】
 

Huangshan looked at the people blocking his path, his eyes filled with a trace of fear, but soon an undaunted aura emanated from him.

“Is this the only despicable means you three great Commerce Associations can employ?” Huangshan looked at the presidents of the three great Commerce Associations with disdain.

“I have to admit, you small chambers of commerce working together do possess quite some strength.”

“But so what! In the Cultivation World, strength is respected. What good is having excellent business skills?” A Great Business Association President scoffed.

“I know you still have some magical treasures and spiritual mines in your hands. Hand them over and I’ll buy them at a fair price.” Another Great Business Association President said with a grin, a typical hidden dagger behind his smile.

“Esteemed One, are you really going to stand up for these three great Commerce Associations?” Huangshan mustered the courage to speak.

A hundred puppets at the Integration Stage appeared behind Huangshan, confronting the Estemeed One’s aura.

“After all, it’s a competition among business associations. I won’t kill you, just capture you.”

“To be honest, if it came to a life-or-death battle, I wouldn’t be able to defeat these puppets. But capturing you is still quite easy.” The idle Esteemed One said indifferently.

He didn’t really want to do this, but the opposition had offered too much.

“Esteemed One, the Dawn Cloud Sect has already declared a complete cessation of all transactions with the three great Commerce Associations. You should know this.”

At this moment, Huangshan’s mood calmed down. Thinking of the trump card that Pang Fu had told him about, he, who had once gone weak in the presence of the Esteemed One, now dared to face him directly.

“So what’s the big deal? It’s just an exchange of interests. If we didn’t even have this level of methods, our three great Commerce Associations would have wasted our time in the Water Cloud Fairy City.”

“In one word, sell all your remaining magical treasures and goods to us at a fair price, and I will make you the fourth largest Chamber of Commerce in Water Cloud Fairy City.” The leading Chamber of Commerce President said.

“The fourth largest Chamber of Commerce, what a joke. Your ambitions are so superficial, it’s shameful to even be associated with you.” Huangshan laughed.

Confronting the presidents of the three great Commerce Associations, whom he could only once look up to, and having a full hand of cards, he exuded an indescribable aura from head to toe.

“Make a choice now, either I capture you or we make peace.” The idle Esteemed One said expressionlessly. To be honest, he rather admired the man before him.

“Esteemed One, I don’t mean to offend, but since they invited you, I invited something to protect me as well.” Huangshan smiled and gently raised his hand, pointing to the sky.

In an instant, the idle Esteemed One felt a chill run up his spine, a cold cluster appearing in his mind. He knew that at this moment, his life and death were in the hands of the person in front of him.

“Esteemed One, no offense intended, but please make a choice now.” Huangshan said expressionlessly, though his heart was pounding wildly.

“Please apologize to the person behind you on my behalf for the offense.” The idle Esteemed One disappeared into the sky in a streak of Escaping Light.

At this moment, a thousand Void Cultivation Stage puppets appeared in the sky, surrounding the presidents of the three great Commerce Associations and their subordinates.

“Presidents, now we need to talk about compensation for mental damages.” Huangshan said with a smile.

The moment the idle Esteemed One left, Huangshan’s entire spirit instantly ascended, his eyes becoming sharper and his expression gentler.

In Water Cloud Fairy City, the United Commerce Association headquarters, Pang Fu and a few others laughed as they watched the light curtain.

“To think that Old Huang would take advantage of such a great opportunity, and now he’s in the spotlight.” A man said enviously.

“Old Huang has been suffering under the suppression of the three great Commerce Associations for years, whether before joining the alliance or after. He’s the one who’s been bullied the most among you.”

“If Old Huang’s grievances hadn’t been resolved before we left, how would he manage the business in Water Cloud Fairy City in the future?” Pang Fu said with a smile.

He had originally planned to take revenge on the three great Commerce Associations when he returned, but later decided to give the opportunity to Huangshan instead.

After the three great Commerce Associations compensated a large amount for mental damages, Huangshan returned to the United Commerce Association feeling refreshed.

“Eldest Brother, thank you.” Huangshan looked at Pang Fu with gratitude.

He knew that Pang Fu had deliberately arranged this.

“What’s there to thank? We’re all brothers.” Pang Fu said with a smile.

“Now, do you have the confidence to manage the Water Cloud Fairy City’s Hidden Spirit Chamber of Commerce?” Pang Fu asked with a smile.

“Rest assured, I’ll take care of the business in Water Cloud Fairy City.” Huangshan promised.

Three days later, the Snake Spirit Number circled around Water Cloud Fairy City and then flew towards the Vast Void Domain.

…….

Hidden Spirit Sect, Xu Fan looked at Zhan Ling, who had just returned to the sect covered in injuries, and said with some surprise, “The information I received said that the Demon Venerable wasn’t very strong.”

“Not strong, but his strength is similar to mine. Besides, there were other Demon Venerables visiting the Red Scaled Demon Clan.” Zhan Ling gritted his teeth in pain.

“1 versus 2 is indeed a bit of a stretch.”

“But the final victor was me. I killed them all.”

Zhan Ling held out a hand with two light clusters of Demon Venerate True Spirit.

Watching Zhan Ling’s fighting desire release, Xu Fan knew he must have enjoyed the battle.

“Put them in the Gathering Spirits Array and store them in the core.”

Zhan Ling finished speaking with a smug expression, hoping that Xu Fan would praise him.

“Pu Tao, take away these two clusters of Demon Venerate True Spirit.” Xu Fan ordered.

The two clusters of Demon Venerate True Spirit were drawn by Pu Tao and flew towards the core of the Gathering Spirits Array.

“I got some important news when I was fighting the two Demon Venerables.”

“The Invincible Monster Venerable of the Red Scaled Demon Clan has been injured recently in the Vast Void Domain and is expected to recover in a hundred years.” Zhan Ling said.

“Are you sure?”

Xu Fan’s mood instantly improved.

“This is the intelligence provided by the visiting Demon Venerables.”

“And after my soul search, I’m sure this is true.” Zhan Ling said with a smile.

“That’s just great, a hundred years is enough time for our use.” Xu Fan said confidently.

“Great Master, once the Nascent Soul Stage Puppet with Mahayana combat power comes out, I must have a good try.” Zhan Ling said expectantly.

“Then you better be prepared to be abused. That puppet is specifically designed to deal with the Invincible Monster Venerable.” Xu Fan smiled.

Recently, the pressure of the Invincible Monster Venerable had decreased significantly.

“It seems I need to step up my efforts recently.” Xu Fan laughed.

Although he had been slacking off recently, his mind was filled with thoughts on how to refine a puppet that could create immortal tools.

“Great Master, after some more cultivation, I’ll go to the depths of the inner zone in the Vast Void Domain to mine some more, so that the sect can create more Nascent Soul Stage Puppets.” Zhan Ling said with a smile.

“Elder Zhan Ling, go ahead, but it’s best to stay on the periphery of the inner zone and not go any deeper. I recently had a hunch that the area has become dangerous.” Xu Fan said.

When the Honored One of the Thousand Spirit Sect had an accident, Xu Fan had calculated that something was off. The deeper the stretch, the more dangerous the inner depths of the Vast Void Domain had become.

“Also, be alert to sudden attacks by the Vast Void Gaint Beasts. In an emergency, give control to Pu Tao.” Xu Fan said.
