Calling for Backup

Chen Feng smiled faintly, "I came rather hastily this time, so I didn't inform you in advance. By the way, where is Fellow Daoist Xu?"

Ye Yuting replied, "My senior brother has gone out to attend to some matters. I'll go and call him back."

Upon hearing this, Chen Feng waved his hand:

"No need. I'm only here to purchase some space materials. Since he's busy, I won't bother him."

"Fellow Daoist, you want to acquire space materials again?" Ye Yuting was clearly surprised.

"Yes, the three types: Void Sand, Space Stone, and Void Mystic Crystal Marrow."

Ye Yuting pondered for a moment and then said:

"Void Mystic Crystal Marrow and Space Stones are easy to buy, but Void Sand is not. Even the major powers in Green Mountain Spirit Market don't have much in stock."

Chen Feng nodded. "I know that Void Sand is hard to buy, so I plan to ask you to help me purchase it from other cultivation stars."

Xuanxiao Star has teleportation arrays that connect to other cultivation stars.

Using this interstellar teleportation array requires certain qualifications; only cultivators native to Xuanxiao Star can use it.

He could only ask Ye Yuting and another person to help with the acquisition.

Chen Feng came here to instruct Ye Yuting to handle this matter, and also to check on the development of the Chamber of Commerce.

"I see. How much do you need, fellow Daoist?" Ye Yuting asked.

Chen Feng placed a storage ring on the table. "All the Spirit Stone are here. Buy as many as you can."

Ye Yuting immediately probed her storage ring with her Divine Sense, and her expression quickly changed.

Six million top-grade Spirit Stone!

Even Ye Yuting was astonished by the Spirit Stone inside the storage ring.

Six million top-grade Spirit Stone was an astronomical figure for her, a Nascent Soul Cultivator.

It's important to know that the Yuting Chamber of Commerce only generates tens of thousands of top-grade Spirit Stone in revenue per month.

Seeing Ye Yuting's shocked expression, Chen Feng smiled slightly:

"These are only part of the story. The most important thing is to establish supply channels, and ideally, find a seller who can provide space materials on a long-term basis."

The six million top-grade Spirit Stone were naturally obtained by Chen Feng from killing those Nascent Spirit Transformation of the Void Spirit Clan some time ago.

He originally had eight million, but considering that Xingfeng Sect would need a large number of Spirit Stone later, he didn't take them all.

If he didn't have enough Spirit Stone, Chen Feng would sell some of his Postnatal spiritual treasures.

The Xingfeng Sect currently possesses a large quantity of these items.

Ye Yuting swallowed hard. "Fellow Daoist, rest assured, I will handle this matter well."

Chen Feng thought for a moment and then took out three more items.

They consisted of a flag, fifty three-phase bullets, and six talismans.

"This flag is a Innate Spirit Treasure, which I'm lending to you temporarily. You also know the function of the Three-Phase Bullet. These six talismans are Spirit Transformation level talismans, and I'm giving them to you as well."

The Xingfeng Sect now possesses a considerable number of Spirit Transformation level talismans. Some were obtained by Chen Feng in exchange for killing Nascent Soul level Spirit Transformation, while others were acquired through trade with other forces.

Ye Yuting was completely stunned when she saw the things on the table.

When she heard Chen Feng mention Innate Spirit Treasure, she even doubted whether she had misheard.

"Innate Spirit Treasure? Fellow Daoist, you're not joking, you want to lend us this?"

Even in a major star, Innate Spirit Treasure is a rare treasure, something Nascent Soul Cultivator like him couldn't possibly possess.

If a Nascent Soul Cultivator possesses Innate Spirit Treasure, they are practically invincible within their realm.

"Yes, you might encounter dangers traveling to other cultivation planets. This is for your self-defense. Also, I will have Liu Qian send another batch of equipment over in a while to increase your strength."

Chen Feng didn't want to give up Ye Yuting as a channel, especially if he really left the Weiyang Star Region in the future.

Ye Yuting's location is the only place where she has established contact with the Weiyang Star Region.

Upon receiving Chen Feng's affirmative answer, Ye Chen Feng was overjoyed and quickly bowed to him, saying, "Thank you, fellow Daoist!"

With these things around, their safety can certainly be greatly guaranteed.

Just then, a voice imbued with powerful Divine Sense came from outside the Yuting Chamber of Commerce:

"Fellow Daoist Ye, what's with the airs you've got? Don't you even want to see me anymore?"

Upon hearing this voice, Ye Yuting's expression changed.

Chen Feng remained calm. He had already determined from the other party's Divine Sense that this was a cultivator in the Nascent Soul Late Stage.

"Who is this person?" Chen Feng asked Ye Yuting.

Seeing Chen Feng's gaze, Ye Yuting ultimately forgot Xu Heng's instructions and said, "It's Yao Linan from the Blood River Sect. His father is Xue Mingzi, one of the five Nascent Spirit Transformation of the Blood River Sect."

Chen Feng felt the name "Blood Demon Child" sounded familiar, but couldn't quite place it.

Ye Yuting reminded him, "Fellow Daoist, have you forgotten? This was the same person who attacked you more than ten years ago, and you even withstood one of his moves back then."

"Oh, it was him." Ye Yuting's reminder brought the name back to Chen Feng's mind.

He then looked at Ye Yuting and asked, "Why are these people from the Blood River Sect looking for you?"

After some hesitation, Ye Yuting told Chen Feng about the Yuting Chamber of Commerce targeting her.

"Fellow Daoist, we don't want to cause you any trouble either. Senior Brother Xu has already gone to other places to establish merchant guilds. At that time, even the Blood River Sect won't be able to cause us any trouble."

Seeing Ye Yuting's nervous expression, Chen Feng stood up:

"Moving to a different location will definitely affect business. Since these forces are causing trouble, I'll help you resolve it."

Upon hearing Chen Feng's words, Ye Yuting looked surprised; "Fellow Daoist, how will you help us solve this?"

Chen Feng didn't say anything, but walked straight towards the door.

Seeing this, Ye Yuting quickly followed.

Outside the Yuting Chamber of Commerce.

There are three people standing here at this moment: one man and two women.

All three were dressed in distinctive red robes.

No cultivators dared to approach the three of them; they all watched from a distance.

This red robe is extremely famous in Qingling Mountain Market. In the entire Qingling Mountain Market, only cultivators from the Blood River Sect can wear red robes.

With these three people standing at the entrance, some cultivators who wanted to enter the Yuting Merchant Guild to buy things dared not go in.

Meanwhile, a manager from the Yuting Chamber of Commerce was bowing and scraping to the young man among the three, speaking to him:

"Sage Yao, our president is indeed receiving important guests. Why don't you go inside and wait? He'll come to see you after he's finished with his guests."

The young man had very small eyes and unusually pale skin.

This young man was none other than Yao Linan, the Holy Son of the Blood River Sect, and also the biological son of Xue Mingzi.

Yao Linan waved his hand, and a burst of spiritual energy shot directly at the Chamber of Commerce manager.

The chamber of commerce manager was immediately sent flying backward and crashed to the ground.

"Who do you think you are, to talk to me like that? I'll wait here. If Ye Yuting doesn't come out, I'm not leaving."

Yao Linan's gaze was cold. He had come here on the orders of his sect, with the purpose of putting pressure on the Yuting Chamber of Commerce.

The Blood River Sect had clashed with Ye Yuting and Xu Heng a long time ago. At that time, the two used the Three-Phase Bullet to repel several half-step Spirit Transformation cultivators from the Blood River Sect.

After that incident, the Blood River Sect began investigating the powerful figures behind Ye Yuting and Xu Heng.

However, after several years of investigation, no findings were made.

Ultimately, the Blood River Sect confirmed that Ye Yuting and Xu Heng had only managed to repel their people by chance obtaining a special treasure.

After reaching this conclusion, the Blood River Sect frequently sent people to exert pressure.

This is Yao Linan's third visit to the Yuting Chamber of Commerce.

A female cultivator from the Blood River Sect standing nearby said:

"Senior brother, Ye Yuting is truly ungrateful. If you ask me, we should just go in and drag this woman out!"

Another female cultivator chimed in:

"That's right, my senior brother came to give her face. Since she doesn't want that face, we don't need to be polite."

Yao Linan said with a smile, "I know what my two junior sisters are thinking, but this is mainly a test. We'll avoid taking action if possible."

As they were talking, Ye Yuting walked out of the Chamber of Commerce, with Chen Feng standing behind her.

The injured manager immediately came over:

"President, your subordinates have failed in their duties."

Upon seeing the manager injured, Ye Yuting immediately turned her gaze toward Yao Linan with hostility:

"Fellow Daoist Yao, what do you mean by this? Why did you attack and injure someone from our Chamber of Commerce?"

Before Yao Linan could answer, a female cultivator next to him spoke in a provocative tone:

"It was your manager who spoke rudely; we were just teaching him a lesson to prevent him from saying anything inappropriate again!"

Ye Yuting's voice was icy:

"That's none of your business to lecture us!"

Upon hearing this, the female cultivator was stunned. She clearly hadn't expected Ye Yuting to be so assertive.

Ye Yuting hadn't been this way the previous times they came.

Some of the onlookers also showed surprise.

"President Ye is so assertive, isn't he afraid of offending the Blood River Sect?"

"Haven't you heard? Chairman Ye has powerful backers; otherwise, how could he have managed the Chamber of Commerce so well?"

"Looks like things are going to get interesting today."

The surrounding cultivators were all discussing it animatedly.

Yao Linan frowned upon seeing Ye Yuting's assertive demeanor.

Something was definitely amiss; he sensed something was wrong.

At that moment, Yao Linan suddenly saw Chen Feng standing behind Ye Yuting.

At this moment, Chen Feng had changed his appearance and looked very ordinary, so Yao Linan naturally did not recognize him.

"President Ye is truly amazing! I have long heard of Fellow Daoist Ye's extraordinary Divine Ability. I humbly request your guidance!"

One of the three female cultivators did not hesitate to take action.

A surge of crimson light emanated from his body, and a terrifying pressure pressed down upon Ye Yuting.

Although fighting is not allowed in the Qingling Mountain Market, the Blood River Sect is the one who sets the market rules, so they naturally don't need to abide by them.

But the oppressive aura released by the female cultivator vanished without a trace the moment it approached Ye Yuting.

Sensing her oppressive aura vanish, the female cultivator was immediately startled. "You..."

But before the female cultivator could finish speaking, her body instantly exploded into a cloud of blood mist, her Nascent Soul and divine spirit being obliterated along with it.

Upon witnessing this scene, everyone wore expressions of disbelief.

A Nascent Soul cultivator died just like that?

Yao Linan stared intently at Chen Feng:

Did you do it?

Although Yao Linan didn't see how Chen Feng made his move, he sensed that a faint fluctuation had just emanated from Chen Feng.

Chen Feng smiled faintly, "You still have some time; you can call for help now."

For Chen Feng now, killing Nascent Soul Cultivator is no different than killing an ant.

He only needs to mobilize the vitality of heaven and earth in the nearby area to kill easily.

Upon hearing Chen Feng's words, Yao Linan spoke in a deep voice:

"Who are you? This is the territory of our Blood River Sect! How dare you kill members of our Blood River Sect here?"

But as soon as Yao Linan finished speaking, he immediately felt a terrifying force pressing down on him.

The next second, his body exploded, leaving only a blank-faced nascent Nascent Soul floating in the field.

As for the other female cultivator beside him, she, like the previous one, instantly turned into a cloud of blood mist.

This surprised everyone in the room.

The onlookers retreated hastily, staring at Chen Feng in horror.

Even Ye Yuting was stunned.

Although she knew Chen Feng was very strong, after all, Chen Feng had survived being besieged by dozens of geniuses.

It can instantly kill Nascent Soul Cultivator, and even Yao Linan, who Nascent Soul Late Stage, was easily suppressed.

This gave her a new understanding of Chen Feng's abilities.

"Could it be that Fellow Daoist Tuo has already broken through to the half-step Spirit Transformation?" Ye Yuting couldn't help but wonder.

Yao Linan, now only at the Nascent Soul, stared at Chen Feng with a face full of resentment and venom.

"How dare you destroy my physical body!"

He was a genius of the sect; losing his physical body meant the end of his future.

But he quickly realized that he hadn't even seen how his opponent attacked, yet his physical body had been destroyed.

The strength of the person before me

Without the slightest hesitation, Yao Linan immediately activated a blood-red talisman.

The crimson talisman shot into the sky and disappeared into the depths of the heavens.

This is the Blood River Sect's Blood Talisman, a type of rescue talisman.

Once activated, this talisman can be sensed by all Blood River Sect cultivators within a certain area.

Before long, a streak of blood-red light flew in from the sky.

"Which blind fool dares to touch anyone from my Blood River Sect!"

A powerful aura appeared in the sky, and the one who arrived was none other than a half-step Spirit Transformation cultivator.

Sensing this aura, Yao Linan immediately shouted:

"Uncle-Master Li, I'm here!"

A crimson light appeared in the sky, and an old man appeared there.

The old man looked down and soon saw Yao Linan, who no longer had a physical body.

His expression changed instantly.

However, before he could even ask anything, a terrifying force pressed down on him.

The old man immediately plummeted from the sky like a shooting star.

Boom!

The market street immediately collapsed, leaving a large crater in the ground.

Inside the deep pit, the old man was kneeling, his legs a bloody mess.

This scene caused everyone in the room to gasp in shock once again.

Yao Linan's expression froze.

Chen Feng's voice rang out in the arena. "Not enough, keep shouting!"

Upon hearing this voice, Yao Linan's heart trembled, while the old man kneeling on the ground shouted;

"You're Spirit Transformation monster!"

The old man was at least a half-step Spirit Transformation, and he knew very well what that oppressive aura was—it was the power of the primordial energy of heaven and earth.

This is a unique technique of Spirit Transformation cultivators, and only the overwhelming power of the heaven and earth's spiritual energy could render this half-step Spirit Transformation powerless to resist.

Spirit Transformation!

Everyone was utterly shocked by the old man's words.

Even on Xuanxiao Star Spirit Transformation cultivator is considered a high-level combatant, and such powerful individuals rarely appear before the world.

Now, surprisingly, one has appeared.

However, everyone quickly realized another problem: the Blood River Sect had five Nascent Spirit Transformation.

The Blood River Sect would not let this go unpunished, given how this person treated its cultivators.

The old man looked at Chen Feng and said in a deep voice:

"I don't know how my Blood River Sect offended you, senior. Aren't you afraid of being punished by our five ancestors for doing this?"

The old man kneeling on the ground did not panic too much.

They have Spirit Transformation Soul cultivators too, and more than one, since this is their territory.

What puzzled him was why his ancestors hadn't noticed the appearance of a Spirit Transformation cultivator in the market.

Chen Feng completely ignored the old man's words and looked at Yao Linan, saying, "If you don't call for help, you're going to die."
