Seeking Heavenly Treasures, Part 1
Or rather, this is no longer something Yale can handle right now. After all, he hasn't officially taken over the family business yet, and in terms of status, he's still just an inexperienced student.
Taking a deep breath, Yale, knowing that Fengyun and Lin Lei wouldn't joke about something like this, said in a deep voice, "In that case, this batch of goods is not something I can handle alone. I need to go and report to my second uncle."
"But before that, you should tell me first. You said before that you didn't want this batch of materials to be associated with you. Is there a dispute about the source of the goods?"
"If so, who is the dispute with, or what force is it with?"
"Give me a heads-up, when I reported to my second uncle, I asked him to avoid buyers who might cause disputes when shipping the goods."
Fengyun smiled and shook his head, saying, "Go and negotiate. There's no dispute about the goods. It doesn't matter who we sell them to or where we sell them."
"Lin Lei and I don't want to get involved with this shipment; we just want to keep a low profile."
Yale was initially puzzled. After all, going into the mountains to train, hunting monsters to make money was a perfectly normal thing to do. What was there to hide or be so low-key about?
But suddenly, as if he had just thought of something, he widened his eyes and looked at Fengyun, saying, "Little Yun, you don't mean...?"
Seeing Yale's expression, Fengyun knew that he had connected him to the death of the Spine Armored Dragon. He believed that he had broken through to a realm that Drawing Upon Heaven and Earth, which was why he had killed the Spine Armored Dragon.
But in reality, he has only just entered the realm of Drawing Upon Heaven and Earth!
With his Level 7 foundation, he could easily crush any Level 8 magical beast. But when he encountered Level 9 Magical Beast, he could easily escape or even engage in a small battle with an ordinary one.
However, even if a Level 9 Peak Spine Armored Dragon uses its comprehended Dark Element Law to reverse-experience the myriad phenomena of the world and fully achieves the realm of Drawing Upon Heaven and Earth, it would still be forced to kneel if it encountered a head-on confrontation.
To hunt down a Level 9 Peak Spine Armored Dragon with the strength of Level 7, one would need to cultivate Dark Battle Qi and comprehend the Dark Element Law to a certain degree.
Yale's thinking was entirely due to his lack of experience and a lucky accident. But Fengyun was too lazy to correct him, and simply patted him on the shoulder, saying, "Don't overthink it. The material from the Spine Armored Dragon wasn't obtained by me; it was just a coincidence!"
Yale thought he was wrong when he heard this, after all, Fengyun never lied to anyone, let alone to him.
Moreover, after he reported the events of Fengyun to his family, Yale also learned from his second uncle how difficult it was for a warrior who had mastered the realm of Control Over Self to break through to the realm of Drawing Upon Heaven and Earth!
Only by practicing countless Combat Skills and secret methods, and accumulating enough insights into life, can one possibly take that step.
Well, that's only a possibility!
But Fengyun's next words surprised him.
"Besides that, could you please ask your Yale boss how much those rare and precious Heavenly Treasures that can rapidly increase physical strength and fighting spirit cost in your chamber of commerce? I'd like to buy some."
Yale smirked and scrutinized Fengyun for a while before saying, "Tsk, Little Yun, I can ask my second uncle about those precious Heavenly Treasures, but you'd better not get your hopes up too high."
"Because of your matter, I specifically asked my second uncle about the Heavenly Treasures collected by the Chamber of Commerce, and only then did I learn that those things were not for sale."
"If I had already taken over the affairs of the Chamber of Commerce, it wouldn't be impossible to find a way. But right now, Little Yun, please don't hug me..."
Upon hearing this, Fengyun realized that he had probably underestimated the preciousness of such Heavenly Treasures, but upon reflection, it was not entirely incomprehensible.
In the Coiling Dragon World, let alone the Saint Realm, even Level Nine Expert is one in a million in the Material Plane. Such Heavenly Treasures are extremely precious resources no matter how you look at them.
Yale frankly told him not to have too much hope, which was mostly a consolation gesture; the reality was probably that there was absolutely no hope.
Thinking of this, Fengyun interrupted Yale and said directly, "Yale, I'm not joking. I really need these kinds of Heavenly Treasures right now, especially those that can enhance my fighting spirit."
"I'm willing to pay any price!"
Yale frowned and said, "Little Yun, don't be too eager to improve your strength."
"When my second uncle told me these things, he once pointed out to me that a warrior like you who has grasped the realm of Control Over Self should put more energy into learning and comprehending Combat Skill."
"As for strength, unless you reach that level, steady improvement step by step is the best approach."
"Although I don't quite understand what this means, I have a strange feeling after hearing it. It seems that my second uncle wants to convey this message to you through me."
"It's just that the third brother has told you about this kind of thing quite a lot before, but you still focus on your own Light Shadow Slash and Healing Spell, so I'm too lazy to say it again."
"Little Yun, my second uncle is a high-ranking member of the Chamber of Commerce and has access to a lot of confidential information. I believe he wouldn't say he doesn't want to work here for no reason!"
Upon hearing this, Fengyun nodded and said, "Your second uncle's actions are truly thoughtful; I will remember this kindness."
"However, I am mindful of my spiritual practice and will not do anything to ruin my future."
"Yale, could you please help me think of a way to increase our chances of obtaining rare and Heavenly Treasures that can enhance our fighting spirit from your chamber of commerce?"
"I need it!"
After a moment's thought, Yale said, "Any price is acceptable?"
Fengyun: "That's right!"
Looking at Fengyun's serious expression, Yale, "Ultimately, the reason why it's difficult for you, Little Yun, to obtain such Heavenly Treasures from our Chamber of Commerce is that you are not a core member of our Chamber of Commerce."
"Although you have great talent and have grasped the realm of Control Over Self at a young age, you only have a greater chance of breaking through than those warriors who have been fighting for two or three hundred years and only grasped this realm."
"It's not worth the Chamber of Commerce investing in you without considering the costs involved!"
"If your need to strengthen your power is truly urgent, then unless you accept my previous invitation to join our chamber of commerce, I can try to arrange something to give you a rare and precious Heavenly Treasures in exchange for the ten million in activity funds I promised earlier."
Upon hearing this, Fengyun pondered for a moment and then decided to agree.
Yale first invited him to join the Dawson Merchant Guild, he declined, partly because of his own secrets and partly because of uncertainty about the future.
But now that he's certain he can enter the Saint Realm as long as he replenishes his resources, what is there to be afraid of?
Once you reach the Saint Realm, no problem will exist.
"Yale, I'm open to joining the Dawson Merchant Guild. However, I hope this matter can be kept secret for at least three years, and that no outsiders will know about it!"
