"You came to my Yingpo Star to cause trouble, ruined half a street, and now you're saying I'm meddling?"

Looking at the ruins scattered all over the ground, Arthur's face turned ashen.

However.

Instead, he was met with a flash of light.

"Boom!!"

Arthur had just raised his greatsword when he collided with the blade's light. His body was sent flying backward, crashing straight into a hundred-meter-tall building like a cannonball.

He was deeply shocked.

"Such a fast cut."

"What a powerful strike!"

Faced with this strike, he could barely hold onto his greatsword. If it weren't for his keen sense of danger honed over years of adventure, which allowed him to raise his sword in advance, his body would have been cleaved in two by that single blow.

This guy...

Arthur turned and pulled away, not daring to go any further...

now.

What Treasure Pavilion?

What is this Yingpo Star"?

Compared to my own life, nothing else matters.

Fortunately, the other party did not attack again. After glancing at him from afar, a white, diamond-shaped spaceship appeared out of thin air. The figure flew into it and disappeared into the sky above the Yingpo Star in a moment.

That's E-class spaceship from the Machine Race; a single shot is all it takes to wipe the Yingpo Star off the map.

Arthur was covered in sweat.

He realized he had been too reckless. If that guy had fired at the planet, probably almost no one on the entire planet, except for himself, would have survived.

"Who on earth is this person?!"

"And who did this Treasure Pavilion offend? What happened during my decades of seclusion?"

Arthur immediately instructed the Intelligent Life to search for relevant information.

A moment later.

He let out a sigh of relief.

"It seems their target is only the Treasure Pavilion, and has nothing to do with my Yingpo Star!"

"Who is this guy? He's so ruthless, not even afraid of the Immortal behind the Treasure Pavilion. He's robbed the Treasure Pavilion's goods for the third time in a row, and even killed one of the Treasure Pavilion's World Lord..."

Although the information given in the Virtual Universe was unconfirmed and seemed like mere speculation, Arthur felt that seeing it with his own eyes now was definitely true.

Treasure Pavilion has really messed with a powerful figure.

The key issue is that this uncle is very vengeful, and he himself was implicated in the situation.

suddenly.

Arthur realized something.

" Lux... help me buy Treasure Pavilion stock, no, I mean help me short Treasure Pavilion stock. How much? All in, all in!!!"

The clever man quickly came up with a way to make up for his losses... all he needed to do was make a profit in the virtual stock market, and this loss would be nothing.

Yingpo Star is one of the most prosperous commercial planets in the Zichen Universe Country. What happens here simply cannot be kept secret...

Arthur did not restrict the spread of the news. Regarding the damage to the streets, he responded that it was a private feud between the mysterious powerful man and the Treasure Pavilion, and that other shops were merely affected.

Of course, the businesses themselves will bear the losses. It's their own fault for not choosing a good location; they had to choose one next to the Treasure Pavilion!

at the same time.

Above Ganwu City, in a high-end office building in a Hanging City.

Kunshaluo and the World Lord are negotiating with several people dressed in bank suits.

"Mr. Stephen, you've surely seen the data. Our Treasure Pavilion has a huge advantage. In just 30,000 years, we've grown from 1,000 Hunyuan to 20,000 Hunyuan, a twenty-fold increase... And this is even with limited funds and a slow expansion rate. If we could get help from the Virtual Universe Company, I believe we could at least increase tenfold in 10,000 years at most!"

Kunshaluo's tone was somewhat agitated. Although he was Immortal God, and the opponents were only a few World Lord, and even one of them was just Domain Lord, he still dared not be presumptuous, because these people were all from the Virtual Universe Company, stationed in the Ganwu Universe Country's Commerce Department.

If he wants to secure investment, or even affiliate Treasure Pavilion to the Commerce Department of Virtual Universe Company, he needs the approval of these people.

"Mr. Kunshaluo, it's undeniable that Treasure Pavilion is developing very well and is a company with great potential. However, recently... your company seems to have encountered a small problem! If this issue isn't resolved, it will be a very risky situation for investors."

A rather gentlemanly leader spoke up.

"Mr. Stephen, I don't know what rumors you've heard. Everything is fine at the Treasure Pavilion recently, the stock market is calm, what trouble could there be?"

"Really? I heard that your company's cargo ships have been hijacked twice. Could this be deliberate retaliation?"

"Rumors, absolutely rumors! Someone must know I plan to collaborate with Mr. Stephen and deliberately spread this rumor to sow discord between us. You know, that's how business competition works..."

Mr. Stephen smiled faintly, "Whether it's a rumor or not, I believe that Mr. Kunshaluo, this Immortal God, can easily resolve this. However, based on our assessment, we can only invest up to twice the offer amount and then ask for 51% of the shares of the Treasure Pavilion."

Kunshaluo's expression was not good. "Sir, two times is far too low. Treasure Pavilion has enormous potential; five times is the minimum... Your investment department will definitely make a fortune if you acquire 51% of our Treasure Pavilion's shares!!"

"Mr. Kunshaluo, you know that even without risk warnings, negotiating a 5x investment is very difficult... it's simply impossible now..."

"Four times, four times is acceptable, that's the bottom line. You know my goal, besides making money, is also to send my brother into the Apocalypse Mystic Region... I'll make him the manager of the new company."

"Four times..."

Stephen and his colleagues discussed the matter. Their original target was actually between three and four times the revenue, but the problem with the Treasure Pavilion led to a lower evaluation.

suddenly.

One of the negotiation team members quietly approached Stephen and said something. Stephen entered the Virtual Universe, verified the information, and then frowned slightly as he looked at Kunshaluo and spoke.

"Mr. Kunshaluo, it seems our negotiations will have to be put on hold for now."

"Mr. Stephen, why? We were having a very pleasant conversation just now!" Kunshaluo asked, puzzled.

"Just look at the news about the Virtual Universe, hmm, it's already on the front page of the Ganwu Universe Country."

After saying that Stephen and his team got up and left.

Kunshaluo and the World Lord immediately entered the Virtual Universe to check the news, and then, they were both stunned!

" The Treasure Pavilion on the Yingpo Star has been looted, and the entire street has been destroyed..."

Lord Arthur of Yingpo Star stated that this was a private feud Star Pirates and the Treasure Pavilion, involving no other parties and having no impact on Yingpo Star's business environment.

Text, images, and even videos are circulating everywhere online...

Damn it!!!

Kunshaluo raised his hand and smashed an expensive negotiating table to pieces.

"No matter who you are, I will make sure you suffer a terrible death!!"
