Murderous Intent Ablaze
The Hundred Charm Demoness spotted this person in a flash of light and was overjoyed. Could this person be Niu Youde?
Upon seeing this person, Hu Yuntian immediately stopped, his expression incredibly complex. How had he managed to attract such a powerful figure? He quickly stepped forward and bowed, saying, "Junior Hu Yuntian greets Senior Wen." He had no choice but to submit! This person could even handle his father; dealing with him would be a piece of cake.
At this moment, Yan Yu also rushed over and bowed to Wen Lanfeng, saying, "Senior Wen." Wen Lanfeng ignored Hu Yuntian but nodded slightly to Yan Yu. Yan Yu quickly walked to Hundred Charm Demoness's side and looked her up and down, asking, "Are you alright?"
Hundred Charm Demoness shook her head. Fortunately, the Illusionary Great Law passed down through generations of the Illusionary Illusion Demon Palace was still somewhat useful; otherwise, she would have suffered some losses. Seeing that she was alright, Yan Yu quickly sent a telepathic message to her, "Quickly thank Senior Wen Lanfeng Feng."
He is Wen Lanfeng, the second-ranked master in the world? Hundred Charm Demoness was shocked and hurriedly went over to bow and say, "Senior Wen." But she hesitated in her heart about whether to ask him about Yue Qianchou.
Wen Lanfeng merely glanced at her indifferently, then stared at Hu Yuntian and said, "If you dare to cause trouble here again, tell Hu Changshou to be prepared to collect your corpse." He left with a cold snort and then disappeared.
Hu Yuntian stood there awkwardly, utterly humiliated today!
Yan Zhuixing and Man Hu glanced at each other with secret amusement. This guy failed to lure out Niu Youde, but instead attracted Wen Lanfeng. He was really unlucky, truly shooting himself in the foot.
The crowd, who had been keeping quiet until now, couldn't hold back any longer after Wen Lanfeng left, and began whispering among themselves. Their eyes were filled with awe as they looked at Yan Yu. Judging from what had just happened, it was clear that Yan Yu had asked Wen Lanfeng to intervene. Good heavens! This woman is truly remarkable; she actually managed to get Wen Lanfeng to stand up for her.
In an instant, Spring Sleep Tower's prestige in everyone's eyes rose another notch. No one expected that besides Niu Youde, Wen Lanfeng was also backing them up, along with the connected Yin Baikang —that made three experts at the late Spirit Transformation stage! Incredible!
Hu Yuntian's face was a mixture of light and shadow, and he stared at Yan Yu with venomous eyes, sneering, "As expected of Master Yan, you live up to your reputation. I've learned a lot today. I'll come back to support you again if I have the chance." With that, he turned and left.
Yan Yu couldn't help but smile bitterly. No matter how she explained, it was no use. Today, she had made an enemy of Hu Yuntian.
As soon as Hu Yuntian left, Yan Zhuixing and Man Hu also got up and left. Before leaving, Yan Zhuixing took a deep look at Yan Yu and memorized her appearance. The reason he agreed to come here with Hu Yuntian was to see this Yan family leader who was on good terms with Niu Youde; perhaps it would be useful in the future. You should know that Niu Youde had really ruined him, almost depriving him of his freedom to move freely in the Cultivation World. How many people were eyeing him covetously!
The news of what happened here spread throughout Treasure Gathering Basin that very day. Wen Lanfeng had actually stepped in to support Spring Sleep Tower, causing its fame to soar once again...
Under a large tree in the primeval forest outside the Treasure Gathering Basin, Yue Qianchou, lost in thought. It wasn't until he smelled a rich aroma of meat that he snapped out of his reverie, sniffed around, and pulled a clod of charred earth from the ground. Breaking it open, he revealed a plump, roasted pheasant. He fanned away the wafting fragrance, grabbed it, and began to devour it.
Yin Baikang asked him to go to the fairy world again. He couldn't go to the fairy world, but there were still ways to spend some time roasting a pheasant, and he was very skilled and could use any method. After wandering around for a long time, I ate and drank enough, wiped the grease from the corners of my mouth, touched my belly and looked up to the sky and sighed, "Life! There is still a long way to go!" He patted his butt and disappeared with infinite emotion.
On the God of Wealth Peak, Yin Baikang greeted him with a hearty laugh, cupping his hands in a gesture of respect, "Brother Niu, you're right on time." His heart, which had been pounding, finally settled. His gaze, however, inadvertently fell upon Yue Qianchou's head, and he froze, startled.
Yue Qianchou was about to exchange a few polite words, seeing his reaction, she subconsciously touched her head and felt something soft like cotton. She casually picked it off and, lo and behold! It was a brown pheasant feather.
Damn it! It must have gotten off when they were slaughtering the pheasant! Yue Qianchou casually tossed it away, letting the wind carry it away, and laughed, "Just a chicken feather." He then pulled out a Storage Bag and handed it to Yin Baikang, saying, "There are 25,000 Restriction Breaking Pill in here. Count them."
Yin Baikang was pondering the trivial matters of the Immortal Realm when he was suddenly pulled back to his Divine Sense by the sight of 25,000 Restriction Breaking Pill. He inhaled sharply, realizing this bag of stuff was worth 50 billion high-grade Spirit Stones! Excited but somewhat bewildered, he asked, "Brother Niu, what does this mean?"
"To be honest, it's too risky for me to travel back and forth between the mortal and immortal realms if you only buy five thousand at a time." Yue Qianchou pointed to the Storage Bag in his hand and said, "Of the twenty-five thousand, you bought five thousand. The remaining twenty thousand were bought on credit based on my good reputation. I promised to pay them back within two days. Can you sell them all within two days? If not, I'd better return the goods to them first to avoid damaging my good reputation."
Yin Baikang was stunned for a moment, then his old face broke into a wide smile. He could sell them all, even within a day, let alone within two days! The Restriction Breaking Pill were currently in high demand and short supply! He could sell 100,000 pills, let alone 20,000. While none of the more than 300 nations were as wealthy as his World Commerce Association, each of them could easily contribute 1 billion to buy Restriction Breaking Pill, easily adding up to 300 billion. 20,000 pills would only be worth a few hundred billion.
Most importantly, before, I had to pay first and then take the goods, which always made me anxious and risky! Now it's great, all the goods are in my own hands, and I don't have to worry about selling them. What's there to worry about? It's practically giving me free money!
"Within a single day!" Yin Baikang raised a finger with great enthusiasm and said very seriously, "Two hundred and forty billion high-grade Spirit Stones will be delivered to Brother Niu on time. If they are not sold, my World Commerce Association will do everything in its power to cover the cost, and it will absolutely not affect Brother Niu's reputation in the Immortal Realm."
Yue Qianchou nodded very seriously and said, "Alright, then it's settled. If you go back on your word, Brother Yin, don't blame me for turning against you."
These words carried a hint of warning. Yin Baikang's eyes flashed, and he laughed heartily, "Brother Niu, you can rest assured. Just come and collect the money within a day."
"You're busy! I won't bother you any longer." Yue Qianchou turned around, then turned back and said, "I found Yue Qianchou before I came here. He's on his way here and should be able to reach the World Commerce Association in two days at most. I've gathered five thousand Seven Treasures Pill for him. Brother Yin, you'd better pay him as soon as possible. Those pills were also on credit this time. Each Seven Treasures Pill is worth two million, so five thousand pills are worth ten billion. Adding the cost of the Restriction Breaking Pill, the total is three hundred and forty billion. With such a large sum, will Brother Yin have any difficulties? If it's inconvenient, you might as well say so now so I can handle it."
Yin Baikang pondered for a moment upon hearing this. 34 billion... The previously ordered 5,000 units, delivered to the buyer, could raise 5 billion, leaving a shortfall of 29 billion. In other words, he needed to sell 15,000 units within a day, generating 30 billion, which, combined with the 5 billion, would be enough.
He planned to hold off on the remaining 10,000 pieces, not releasing too many to maintain consumer demand. He also needed to keep some on hand for himself, so he could have some on hand when Niu Youde's next batch arrived.
"Don't worry, Brother Niu, it won't delay your business." Yin Baikang assured him with a smile, "After Yue Qianchou Seven Treasures Pill arrives, I will exchange money for goods with him."
"Okay! You're busy!" Yue Qianchou nodded in satisfaction and floated down the mountain...
Yin Baikang watched him leave, then muttered with a sneer, "What credit? Who knows how much this pill costs in the Immortal Realm?" He then shook his head dismissively. This wasn't something he should worry about. Niu Youde had made money while also giving him a large profit. There was nothing to doubt; everyone had profited.
He quickly brought Sikong Jue up the mountain and arranged for the sale of the pills...
As soon as Yue Qianchou landed in the backyard of Spring Sleep Tower, he saw Yan Yu and Hundred Charm Demoness whispering to each other, seemingly discussing something. Upon seeing him, Hundred Charm Demoness Ji bowed and said, "Senior Niu." Yue Qianchou nodded silently.
"You're back!" Yan Yu greeted her, her tone reminiscent of a wife waiting for her husband's return. She walked over and said directly, "While you were away, Senior Wen Lanfeng, Senior Lou Yanqing, and Mr. Nongzhu came looking for you."
"They came to see me?" Yue Qianchou asked suspiciously. "What do they want with me?" He wondered if Nong Zhu had already revealed his identity. He hoped that Nongzhu wouldn't ruin his plans!
"They didn't say why they wanted to see you," Yan Yu said, glancing at Hundred Charm Demoness. "They just casually helped us solve some trouble."
Yue Qianchou followed her gaze to Hundred Charm Demoness, frowned, and asked, "What's wrong?"
Yan Yu recounted how Hu Yuntian tried to forcibly take Hundred Charm Demoness. Yue Qianchou sneered as he listened, his eyes flashing with murderous intent. He chuckled and said, "Hu Changshou's son Hu Yuntian, has quite the nerve. It seems someone is tired of living."
He was indeed furious. It was just a coincidence that he wasn't there; otherwise, regardless of Hu Yuntian's intentions, he would have killed the guy on the spot, no matter whose son he was. In Yue Qianchou's mind, some things were beyond negotiation; there was no room for so much restraint.
While he didn't want to touch Hundred Charm Demoness, he absolutely wouldn't allow anyone else to do so, unless it was Hundred Charm Demoness's own choice. In that case, he would have no objections and would even offer his blessings. To put it another way, Hundred Charm Demoness was still addressed as his master's wife, and someone had actually dared to seduce her! How could he swallow this insult? He would kill them to vent his anger. They were all in the Cultivation World; there was no way to get by if they couldn't talk things out...
