The Qian Household's Decision

Qian Xiuzhu, who was sitting calmly drinking tea at the headquarters of the Qian Household Chamber of Commerce in the Five Lakes Continent, was looking at the illusory image of his younger brother. The next moment, he almost spat out the tea in his mouth. If it weren't for his strong cultivation, he probably would have lost face.

"What kind of joke are you playing on me now?" Qian Xiuzhu couldn't help but roll his eyes at his younger brother. From childhood to adulthood, even now at his age and with his cultivation level, his younger brother still jokes with him whenever he has free time.

At that moment, he was convinced that his younger brother was joking with him.

I also congratulate him on becoming a qualified pawn.

Only his younger brother could say such things.

How could anyone dare to say such things to someone at the Early Eternal Realm, or even someone who has the potential to break through to the Mid Eternal Realm?

Qian Mingjing looked at his brother, who seemed convinced he was joking, and said with a strange expression, "Brother, I know what I'm about to say is a bit unbelievable, but you have to listen to me carefully!"

Qian Xiuzhu said, "Fine, I'll see what tricks you're up to this time."

Qian Mingjing recounted all the information he had just received from Li Wensong. After he organized it, a very clear outline of the Qian Household's plans was fully revealed through his words.

"That's roughly the situation! The powerful figure we're cooperating with isn't just an ordinary Early Eternal Realm cultivator! He's a Peak Eternal Realm expert who has mastered the Rule of Cause and Effect! Furthermore, after Lingxu ran away from home, he ended up working with this powerful figure! Clearly, this powerful figure gradually began to use our Qian Household as pawns in his scheme because of Lingxu!"

Qian Mingjing never expected that his nephew, who had run away from home for many years, would actually appear with Lu Qing'an!

When Qian Lingxu was still in the Undying Realm, he had an unresolved conflict with Qian Xiuzhu and ran away from home. He has been gone for many years and has never reappeared!

Qian Xiuzhu spent a lot of resources and time trying to find this son, but ultimately failed!

"What! You saw Lingxu?!" Qian Xiuzhu exclaimed in surprise, then a look of joy appeared on his face.

At first, he didn't think much of it when he scolded his son away. But years later, he regretted his harsh tone. He tried everything to find his son, but to no avail. And now, his younger brother went there and actually found him?!

"Yes, Lingxu hasn't acknowledged me as his father. Hey, that kid's always been stubborn, just like you," Qian Mingjing said.

Qian Xiuzhu took a deep breath. He was happy to have found his son, but he remained skeptical of what his younger brother had said.

Was that person really Peak Eternal Realm expert?!

And he's a Peak Eternal Realm expert who has mastered the Rule of Cause and Effect?!

"Are you sure you saw him display the Peak Eternal Realm?" Qian Xiuzhu asked.

Qian Mingjing: "He directly transferred his Early Eternal Realm cultivation to the Heavenly Fall Continent. What level of cultivation do you think is needed to do something like that?"

Qian Xiuzhu said in a deep voice, "Ordinary people in the Middle to Late Stage Eternal Realm wouldn't do such a thing, but you didn't actually see his cultivation level. As for what you said about deductions and mastering the layout, it makes sense, but I feel like there's something wrong with it..."

One thing he had to admit was that after hearing what his younger brother said, he also felt that everything was too much of a coincidence!

It certainly gives one the feeling of being controlled by some the Unseen force.

But is it possible that all of this is just a coincidence?

If that's the case, and nothing is clear, forcing the Qian Household Chamber of Commerce move all its assets to the Eternal Night Continent and play the role of a pawn is nothing short of a gamble.

If they win the bet, all is well; if they lose, the entire Qian Household will collapse!

Given his temperament, he is unwilling to gamble heavily in situations where he is not entirely certain.

Qian Mingjing said, "Brother, the situation is clear enough. Believe me, I truly believe the Qian Household can use this to curry favor with a powerhouse of this caliber! Of course, I know you have your concerns. After all, you haven't seen him in person, experienced the pressure he exerts, or witnessed his transmission of cultivation power across the continent. You've only learned about him through my descriptions, so the impact on you is less, and it's a bit hard to accept. However, you can completely trust me! I'm not the kind of fool who's easily deceived!"

He carefully recalled his feelings after interacting with Lu Qing'an and was almost 99% certain that Lu Qing'an was a Peak Eternal Realm expert.

All that's missing is Lu Qing'an demonstrating his Peak Eternal Realm cultivation!

The things Li Wensong said, and everything he witnessed, almost perfectly corresponded to the fact that Lu Qing'an was a Peak Eternal Realm expert who controlled the Rule of Cause and Effect.

Regardless of whether Lu Qing'an is Peak Eternal Realm expert who has mastered the Rule of Cause and Effect, the mere fact that he is Peak Eternal Realm expert is enough for the Qian Household to take a gamble!

The Qian Household definitely didn't lose out!!

Qian Xiuzhu said, "Let me think about it carefully! This is not something that can be decided in a short time!"

Qian Mingjing: "Okay! Then think it over carefully and tell me when you've made up your mind!"

Qian Xiuzhu nodded, disconnected the connection, closed his eyes, and began to ponder.

If they really listen to his brother and make a decision, the Qian Household will need to integrate everything and relocate to the Eternal Night Continent.

The Eternal Night Continent is a newly emerging Seven Heavens Continent, with the potential to reach the Eighth Heaven or even the Ninth Heaven, but for now it is only the Seventh Heaven.

By betting everything, if they win, they can become the strongest merchant guild in the Nine Heavens Continent.

By becoming a pawn of the Peak Eternal Realm expert who controls the Rule of Cause and Effect, and with the backing of such an expert, the Chamber of Commerce could develop to a height he never dared to imagine!

Qian Xiuzhu opened his eyes. "Thinking about it this way, if we really bet right, the Qian Household Chamber of Commerce will have limitless prospects!!!"

Bang! Bang!

His heart began to pound violently.

That looks tempting!

"Lingxu is over there too..."

Half an incense stick later.

Qian Mingjing, who was outside the Heavenly Fall Continent, waited for his brother to send a message.

Qian Mingjing asked eagerly, "Brother, what's your decision?"

Li Wensong also waited quietly for the answer. Unlike Qian Mingjing, he did not show any impatience, but only a confident smile that indicated that he was in control of everything.

Because he was absolutely certain that Lu Qing'an, this big shot, had already taken everything under control!

Qian Xiuzhu is definitely one of the pawns!

Without a second thought, Qian Xiuzhu already had a clear answer!

Qian Xiuzhu: "I've thought it over carefully, I'm willing to take the gamble!"

Qian Mingjing laughed and said, "Okay! Then I know what to do!"

Li Wensong smiled, appearing completely unperturbed.

Everything is under control!

"Tsk tsk, I guess it's because I've been spending too much time with Brother Lu. I feel like my own demeanor has changed a bit! Sure enough, you can learn a lot from being around strong people!" Li Wensong thought to himself.
