"Oh? That's all? "
Yang Qingxuan calmed down and returned to his seat. "That's not enough. I heard from Qian Er that your Chamber of Commerce is famous in the first generation universe. "
Pei Da smiled bitterly. "I'm just an ordinary member. I'm not the president. I can't use the resources of the Chamber of Commerce."
Qian Er said, "Mister Pei is the third shopkeeper of the Chamber of Commerce. You're being too humble by calling yourself an ordinary member."
Pei Da quickly said, "In the Chamber of Commerce, the boss is the real boss. We're just following the boss to make a living."
Yang Qingxuan said, "Then how much resources can you use?"
Pei Da stammered, "Very little. Not even 1%."
Yang Qingxuan's face darkened as he shouted, "Then you lied to me about the slaves and Men of Sacrifice? Don't tell me that's not even 1% of your Chamber of Commerce's resources. "
Pei Da's face darkened. "Through my connections, I can use resources beyond my authority, but it's not much." He looked at Qian Er with a reproachful expression.
He thought, You tricked me here, and now you're tricking me.
Qian Er turned around and ignored him.
Yang Qingxuan said, "Other than manpower, I'm also short on resources. How about this? You stay by my side for a while and help me collect some resources."
Pei Da was shocked. "You can't do that. If I don't go back, the Chamber of Commerce will definitely send people to find me. I'm afraid it'll be bad for you."
Yang Qingxuan sneered. "It's fine. You can just write a letter back and let your family be at ease. Just say that you're doing a big business outside. At the same time, try to gather as many resources as possible, including the slaves and loyalists you mentioned before. "
Pei Da felt a chill run down his spine and said in a trembling voice, "Are you planning to imprison me?"
Yang Qingxuan said, "I'm asking you to help me. Why would I imprison you? This matter is settled. There's no need to say more. Your Excellency, don't even think about writing a letter or running away. After all, our human race is in a precarious situation. We have nothing to lose. We're not afraid of you. If there's any problem, I'll destroy your soul at once. "
Pei Da raged, "Shameless bastard!"
Yang Qingxuan sneered, "Same to you."
He waved his hand and another large block of ice appeared in the room. "Sir, take a closer look at what this is."
Pei Da looked carefully. Inside the ice block was another martial artist. His cultivation was not weak, but his face was in extreme pain. His head seemed to be swollen and would explode at any moment.
His pupils constricted as he exclaimed, "A half-step Supreme Martial Artist of the Deep Space Alien Race?!"
Yang Qingxuan said, "That's right."
Pei Da was extremely shocked. Who was this person in front of him?
It was said that there were only three Paragons in the human race, and it was clear that this man was not one of them. Even if he had four ten-star Thousand Realms Whirling experts as his subordinates, how could he capture two half-step Paragons alive?
Yang Qingxuan continued, "This person refused to submit, so I set up an array and searched his memories of the past few decades. Then, fearing that he would die and be discovered by the alien race, I sealed his head in ice before it exploded. "
Pei Da was horrified when he heard this. When he saw the appearance of the dragon ghost, it was indeed as Yang Qingxuan said. He could not help but shiver.
Yang Qingxuan said, "Don't be afraid, Sir. As long as you do your best to work for me, there will only be benefits and no harm."
After saying that, he waved his hand and put away the ice blocks of the dragon ghost and Mu Lingfei.
The ice in the room melted instantly, and the temperature rose little by little.
Pei Da gritted his teeth. "You're playing with fire!"
Yang Qingxuan said indifferently, "Sir, you may not understand what I said. A barefooted person is not afraid of wearing shoes. Since I'm going to die if I lose, I might as well use all kinds of methods. I believe Sir can understand me."
Pei Da was so infuriated by his shamelessness that he could not speak. He stood there with an ashen face, not knowing what to do.
Yang Qingxuan said, "Sir, please help me with the first thing first. Gather all kinds of information about my race and the deep space alien race for me in the past six months. At the same time, gather as many resources as you can."
Pei Da stood there motionlessly with a cold expression.
Yang Qingxuan sighed. "I don't want to be a bad person, but the world is too bad. What can I do?"
With a wave of his hand, Yass and the others surrounded him.
An hour later, Pei Da was lying on the ground in a sorry state, his face full of fear.
Runes flickered all over his body. Yang Qingxuan, Onishi, and Yass had placed all kinds of forbidden spells on him.
Only now did he realize his situation clearly for the first time. He did not dare to resist and immediately went to carry out Yang Qingxuan's orders.
Qian Er said worriedly, "These dimensional merchants are extremely powerful. Sir, your actions are too risky."
Yang Qingxuan said, "Desperate times call for desperate measures. Sir Pei is right. The human race has a high chance of losing. Once we lose, nothing else matters. If we win, we can deal with this matter in the future. There's no need to think too much about it now. "
Pei Da was so regretful that his intestines almost puffed up. Why did he have to say so much?
…
Half a month later, Yang Qingxuan and the others arrived at a wasteland outside of human territory.
Shattered boulders were scattered all over the ground, as well as the ruins of various buildings.
A long time ago, this place used to be a flourishing tribe, but it had long since disappeared in the annals of history. No traces of it could be found.
Not long after, a figure appeared in the distance, walking in the void. With a few flashes, he landed in front of Yang Qingxuan and the others.
It was a gentle-looking old man. When he saw Pei Da, he immediately stepped forward and bowed. "Greetings, Third Master."
Pei Da grunted and said with a calm expression, "Have you brought everything?"
The old man said, "I have."
He held a pitch-black iron chain in his hand and slowly pulled it.
The other end of the iron chain extended into the void behind them. As the iron chain was pulled out, a few figures slowly appeared. They were all bound by the chains.
These people were hairy and had ferocious expressions. There were both men and women, but in the eyes of the human race, they were all extremely ugly. There were some other existences with iron chains running through their bodies. Their faces were ashen.
The old man said, "These are the slaves and deathsworn that Third Master wants."
Saying so, he took out two storage bags and offered them with both hands. "These are the other things that Third Master wants."
Pei Da took them and scanned them with his divine sense. He nodded. "Not bad. You can go back. Do as I say."
The old man said, "Yes." After a moment of hesitation, he said, "The resources that Third Master can use are almost at the upper limit."
Pei Da snorted. "Of course I know. Do I need you to tell me? I told you to investigate and collect as much information as you can about the deathsworn. There are no clues yet. Take this back and use it as collateral. When my authority exceeds again, come back and tell me. "
Yang Qingxuan immediately waved his hand. The frozen Mu Ling flew out.
The old man's eyes lit up. He looked carefully for a while and praised. "It really is the Sovereign's clone. Just nice, an important guest wants this …"
