Yun Yang chuckled bitterly. "Returning to the Bound of Universe this time is indeed glorious, but it's hard for me to be free. Big brother is right."
Beside him, Dongfang Haoran, Ximen Fafu, and Beigong Liuli coughed dryly, their pretense of composure gone.
The true meaning of Yun Yang's words almost made the three rulers feel ashamed.
The Fox Emperor glanced at him and said with a smile, "Third brother, you look troubled. Is it because you've been suppressed by the three heavenly palaces? Well, Dongfang and the others are all here, and they look troubled. Even if they didn't instruct you, it must be their sons and disciples who want to kill you. However, with your temper and the way you handle things … I'm sure you've killed some of their sons and disciples, haven't you? "
Yun Yang was shocked. "Big brother, you're a prophet. It's not entirely accurate, but it's not far from it."
"What's so special about being able to predict things? The old geezers didn't move, and you didn't die. My Royal Blood Jade Pendant also didn't have any reaction … That means that you were scared but not in danger. Since you're fine, then the one who's in trouble is naturally someone else. I don't even need to use my brain. What you said is not entirely accurate, but it's not far from it. Did you show mercy and not kill? This isn't like you! "
Yun Yang chuckled bitterly and changed the topic. "I heard that big brother has started to act?"
The Fox Emperor snorted and said, "What do you mean by 'I've started to act'? It's that old bastard, Nine-lives Cat. He insisted on creating a commotion. What else can I do? Do I have to watch him risk his life alone? I mean, I have to risk my life with a fool. Look at me now, I'm completely passive. I can only drag this on for as long as I can."
Before the Fox Emperor had even finished speaking, the "idiot" Nine-Lives Cat Ancestor's face had already appeared on the screen. His face was filled with embarrassment, and it was clear that he had been mocked quite a bit by the Fox Emperor during this period of time. He was completely at the mercy of the Fox Emperor, and he waved his hands awkwardly. "Third Brother, er … You still look like a fox …"
Yun Yang was exasperated.
'Leave it to others if you don't know how to speak. What you said makes me want to beat you up …'
Dongfang Haoran came over and asked, "Fox Emperor, what's the situation over there? Is there anything we can help with? Just say it! "
The Fox Emperor looked deeply at Dongfang Haoran with a faint smile and said, "Dongfang, no matter how we fight, it is a matter of the Yao race. It has nothing to do with your human race, so you don't need to worry about it."
Dongfang Haoran, "… …"
"Don't think that we're allies with you humans just because we rebelled. That's impossible. And if you humans want to take advantage of this matter, don't even think about it. The enemy of my enemy is not necessarily my friend! "
The Fox Emperor said calmly, "Even if the Demon Clan is in a state of chaos right now … if you humans dare to attack at this time, then both sides will immediately turn their weapons around and work together to deal with you. Nine-lives and I will most likely charge to the frontlines. Who asked us to not fear death!"
"So, there's no need to worry, and there's no need to overthink things."
The Fox Emperor's words were harsh, causing Dongfang Haoran and the others to shake their heads and sigh.
Even though Zhang Xuan had expected that the Fox Emperor would say such a thing, he had still harbored some hope in his heart. But at this moment, it was inevitable that he would be disappointed.
The human heart was strange, but a demonic heart was as pure as a beast's. It had always been so, and had never changed!
Yun Yang said from the side, "Big brother, I don't care about your matters, but if it really comes down to it, it's your business and your life if you fight to the death, but you have to send sister-in-law and nephews over to me no matter what."
The Fox Emperor and the Feline Emperor's eyes glinted with warmth. "Very well!"
Then, the Fox Emperor cut off the communication unilaterally.
Yun Yang looked at the jade pendant for a while and thought about it before turning his head quietly. "The timing of the incident isn't good, but it's still a good thing overall … it's just that there aren't many opportunities for us to take advantage of."
Beigong Liuli chuckled. "I've already said that there's no hope, but both of them insisted on trying."
Dongfang Haoran said, "There's no loss in trying this, we can give up completely. Besides, it's not like we didn't gain anything from this exchange. At least we know for sure that the Fox Emperor and the Feline Emperor are really rebelling. It's not a smokescreen."
He thought about it and said, "If we intervene rashly, the Demon Race will return to being a united front … If we don't intervene, they can still be chaotic for a period of time. Since that's the case … let's just wait and see. "
He turned to look at Yun Yang. "What are your plans? Are you going to intervene in this as a private matter? "
Yun Yang was a human, but he was also the sworn brother of the Fox Emperor and the Feline Emperor. He had a close relationship with the two races, so it would be reasonable if he intervened as a private matter. However, with Yun Yang's help, the Fox Emperor and the Feline Emperor's abilities would increase by at least twenty percent, which would definitely cause more losses in the Demon Race's internal strife.
Yun Yang's gaze flickered as he said, "The human heart is treacherous, and it's not just an empty saying. The Demon Race won't trust any humans during this period of time, and I'm not in the position to intervene. Recuperating and elevating their abilities are the Temple of Nine Supremes' top priority at this stage. This process will take at least three years.
The four rulers exchanged looks and said, "Very well. We'll definitely fight for three years for you!"
"There's one more thing." Ximen Fanfu reminded, "The Supreme Heaven Pavilion's selection will begin in the eighth month of next year. There's still a whole year from now. Yun Yang, you must attend the selection this time. "
Yun Yang was silent for a moment before he replied in a low voice, "Alright."
…
The plan was set.
Dongfang Haoran and the others left the Temple of Nine Supremes swiftly.
…
After Dongfang Haoran and the others descended the mountain, they did not stay any longer and returned to their respective palaces.
Yun Yang contacted the Fox Emperor once more after Dongfang Haoran and the others had left.
Dongfang Haoran and the others already knew what they needed to know. The rest was what they should not know.
Dongfang Haoran had left immediately because he understood this as well. The four rulers were doing this for the continuation of mankind. Whether it was to add insult to injury when the Demon Race was in a state of chaos, it was only right for them to do whatever they could.
They left immediately so that Yun Yang could contact the Fox Emperor quickly and get the real news and valuable clues.
As long as they were still around, even if Yun Yang contacted the Fox Emperor again, the latter would not say a word. How could a sovereign's soul be so easily deceived?
"Big brother, what happened on your side? I want to hear the truth. "
"Your Brother Cat was indeed rash in this matter. You know, for those of us who travel outside, for the sake of safety, we basically don't bring our Soul Origin Bodies with us. Everyone's foundation is stored in an absolutely secret place, where they are constantly cultivating and nurturing their foundation. And that secret place is something that only we know about, and no matter how good our relationship is, we wouldn't dare to reveal it."
"Your Brother Cat had just escaped not long ago and was affected by the Art of Sealing Heaven. His ability was greatly reduced. If the Phoenix Emperor hadn't held back, he might not have survived … Since he was determined to counterattack, he naturally needed to fuse as soon as possible, in case someone with ulterior motives attacked his nest. However, although his fusion this time was successful, it was still discovered. The Phoenix Emperor had planted many spies in the former location of the Cat Race's imperial city. When the Cat Emperor fused, his aura leaked out … "
The Fox Emperor was extremely helpless about this.
"Also, most importantly, the fact that your nephew isn't dead has been discovered. Furthermore, rumors have started to spread throughout the Demon Plain, saying that your nephew has come back to life and that the heavens did not take his life. This is the true ruler of the Demon Race … the Demon Emperor is especially wary of this. Therefore, the internal strife of the Demon Race this time isn't only because of your Brother Cat, although in name, the spearhead is all pointed at him. "
"However, the situation is still stable now. The Fox Race has been running the Crimson Soul Mountain for a long time. They don't plan to attack the Demon Race's territory by force, only seeking to protect themselves. They can handle it. After all, there's still a long way to go before the final battle. No matter how enraged the Demon Emperor is, the other sovereigns don't really want to kill us both. It's because of this that we can't turn to the human race. Never."
The Fox Emperor was very nonchalant.
Yun Yang frowned and changed the topic. "Then, do you mean to say that … what you've come into contact with me is actually just a clone? Even the one imprisoned by Brother Cat is essentially just an avatar? "
"You can't say that. Every one of us who travels outside has a complete will and a complete body, but … as sovereigns, how can we not have a backup plan? Everyone cherishes their lives. Besides, leaving a backup plan means that we're cultivating at all times and places … it's a double cultivation …"
"However, it's not surprising that you're surprised. When you reach the cultivation base of a Saint, you'll naturally understand the mystery behind this. This is a specialty of a Saint level cultivator." The Fox Emperor chuckled and said softly, "The one I'm most troubled about is your nephew … Now, he's the most important target of the Dragon Race and the Phoenix Race."
Yun Yang pondered for a moment and asked, "Are you confident that you can protect him?"
The Fox Emperor was silent for a long time. "He's my last resort. If I can't protect him, it'll be the moment I break off all ties with the Demon Emperor's bloodline … If we're all doomed, remember to shatter this jade pendant in your hand when you come to the Demon Race's base and scatter the emperor's blood essence. You'll be able to find the blood of life and a strand of his soul that I've left for my son … I've prepared these just now. No matter how capable others are, they won't be able to find them, but you can. "
He said softly, "If that day really comes, I'll have to rely on you for everything after this."
Yun Yang understood what he meant immediately.
If they really could not protect him, the Fox Emperor and the Cat Ancestor would stake it all and launch an all-out counterattack, igniting the Demon Race's internal strife. If it really came down to a final battle, facing the entire Demon Race, it was only a matter of time before the Fox Emperor and the Cat Ancestor were defeated. There was no chance of them surviving!
There was no doubt that they would die!
Therefore, what he said just now was more to entrust the Fox Crown Prince's future to Yun Yang!
Yun Yang took a deep breath and said in a low voice, "Alright."
"There's one more thing. I've secretly built a warehouse … a small cave the size of a human head … I've placed a hundred spatial rings in it. "
The Fox Emperor's voice was low and indifferent. "These … are what I've prepared for you. If anything really happens and the cat and I die … they're yours. By then, my blood will guide you to them. "
Yun Yang kept quiet for a moment and said in a low voice, "Alright."
He understood it very well.
Those Space Rings must contain an extremely large amount of resources, enough to shock the entire world.
The Fox Emperor had left this as a backup in case he was forced to a dead end. These were the capital that the Fox Emperor had left for the Fox Crown Prince to stage a comeback.
If so, there would be no shortage of them.
The Fox Emperor had given much thought to his son!
However, when the time came, Yun Yang would be the one to obtain them first. As for whether Yun Yang would hand them over to the Fox Crown Prince after he had obtained them, whether he would look for the Fox Crown Prince's soul to revive him, or even how much he would hand over … these were all matters that needed to be discussed.
After all, no one could guarantee what Yun Yang would do!
The human heart was treacherous. Yun Yang was also human, unfortunately!
No matter what guarantee Yun Yang made now, no matter how generous and righteous he sounded, it would still be useless before the reality of the future. It would be nonsense if the Fox Emperor could believe him completely.
Everything, including how the resources would be used, was all within Yun Yang's will.
It should be Yun Yang's will in the future!
The Fox Emperor did not make it clear and Yun Yang did not make any promises either.
Both of them knew that it was useless to say anything at this point in time.
Even Yun Yang's current state of mind was hard to predict!
Therefore, the Fox Emperor had simply said, "Those are yours! How you use them is your business. You're greedy, but it's given to you by your sworn brother, so it's not considered greedy. If you choose to let your nephew use them, it's because you're loyal to your brother. It has nothing to do with what I'm entrusting to you today. I'm not forcing you with the loyalty of my brother either … "
"Brother, take care."
The Fox Emperor said softly, "If there are no accidents, we should be able to hang on for a year!"
Yun Yang's gaze flashed as he said, "I understand. I thank my brother for your kindness."
"Mm."
The Fox Emperor disappeared for the second time.
Yun Yang stood up slowly.
"One year!"
He murmured.
The Fox Emperor's words were clear.
"If there are no accidents, one year!"
What if there were accidents?
"What can I do in a year's time?"
…
The Residence of Nine Supremes, or rather, the Palace of Nine Supremes now, had begun its days of torment.
The so-called torment was probably what Xiao Wuyi, Ping Zun, Yue, and Lang Fantian thought to them.
In the eyes of the old friends of the Residence of Nine Supremes, everything that was happening before their eyes was merely a show of energy.
On the first day after the spiritual Qi storm ended, the Palace of Nine Supremes was quiet. Everyone was trying their best to adjust the spiritual Qi that they had absorbed. It was extremely quiet, without a trace of movement.
In spite of this, hundreds of people had already finished adjusting and had come out to train, tormenting themselves as if their lives depended on it, trying to adapt to the sudden surge in their abilities as soon as possible.
These hundreds of people were the original members of the Residence of Nine Supremes. After all, the old members of the Residence of Nine Supremes were not new to the situation, so they were relatively more adaptable. In addition, they had their own ways to adjust to the situation!
Sparring battles, using the explosive pace of battle to hone in on one's condition, so that one's power could truly match one's own. It was the only way to succeed.
On the second day, the situation gradually spread. Basically, everyone was on the move. The area within ten thousand miles of the Palace of Nine Supremes was filled with fighting scenes that were drenched in sweat. The disciples who were sparring and training did not stop for a single moment. Many children were exhausted from training, lying on the ground and twitching, but they still mustered their mystical Qi in an attempt to recover as soon as possible so that they could proceed to the next round of training.
There were also people shouting from the side.
"Hang in there!"
"Stand up!"
"Hang in there!"
"I won't say anything else, but if anyone embarrasses the Palace of Nine Supremes when they go out to roam the martial world, you know it!"
"You'll be representing the Palace of Nine Supremes no matter where you go when you go out on your own!"
"Pride is yours, but it's given by others. We roam the world to earn pride for the Palace of Nine Supremes. We mustn't be embarrassed!"
"Pride isn't something you can earn just by lying down like this!"
"Get up!"
The corners of Xiao Wuyi, Lang Fantian, and the other newly promoted higher-ups' mouths twitched.
They knew that although they had worked extremely hard in their own cultivation, they were far from the Palace of Nine Supremes' disciples.
When he was tired, he would rest and adjust his Xuan Qi. After that, he would cultivate his mood. He had to wait until his mood was better before he could cultivate his martial skills. The way of cultivation was about relaxation and tension. More haste, less speed …
Why were the Palace of Nine Supremes' disciples training so desperately? It was like pulling up saplings to help them grow. Could they achieve anything in the long run?
"Will there really be no problem if we continue to train like this?" Xiao Wuyi pulled back Hu Xiaofan, who was supervising the work fiercely.
Hu Xiaofan chuckled. "Uncle-Master Xiao, the spiritual Qi of heaven and earth can't be replenished in the secular land. It's rare to have enough spiritual Qi to nourish the body all the time. Cultivating blindly will inevitably damage one's foundation. More haste, less speed. However, does the Palace of Nine Supremes need to consider this? Do you think there's any possibility that the spiritual Qi can't be replenished? As long as one doesn't die from cultivating, he can come back to life no matter what. I trained this way back then, so I think my foundation is solid. These kids are luckier than I am, and the spiritual Qi now is even better than when they were in the Residence of Nine Supremes. How can there be any accidents? "
He left after he finished, continuing to supervise the work.
Xiao Wuyi and Lang Fantian blushed.
They had actually been taught a lesson by a junior?
However, what he said made sense!
The spiritual Qi in the Palace of Nine Supremes was so thick that spiritual Qi could be liquefied almost everywhere. Spiritual energy circulated as one breathed in and out. Under such an atmosphere, as long as one did not die, any injury could be healed swiftly. The so-called hidden injuries of the physical body did not exist at all!
Sigh, this was bullying others with the sect's advantage. There was nothing more to say!
"There's a reason why the Residence of Nine Supremes could rise to where it is now …" Xiao Wuyi sighed. "What's the use of lamenting about it? We're part of the Palace of Nine Supremes now. We should work harder. Otherwise, we won't have any dignity left if these kids catch up to us … It'll be so embarrassing."
Lang Fantian nodded in agreement.
By the fifth day, dozens of disciples had reached a bottleneck in their cultivation base. They bade farewell to the school and left to train in the martial world.
The next day, hundreds more disciples stepped out of the school. By the tenth day, the Residence of Nine Supremes had sent out twelve thousand disciples. By the evening of the eleventh day, the last batch of three thousand disciples had been sent out.
"They've all been sent out …" Xiao Wuyi mused. "How is the Palace of Nine Supremes training disciples? It's like rearing eagles …"
Another day later, Majordomo Qian, who rarely left the Residence of Nine Supremes, led the business disciples down the mountain in a grand fashion to reorganize the Residence of Nine Supremes' trade routes.
Ji Lingxi watched Qian Duoduo leave with a deep frown, deep in thought.
Beside her, Gu Chaliang watched the departing silhouette and said softly, "Madam, Majordomo Qian's departure this time … without the help of a benefactor, he'll definitely die …"
Ji Lingxi turned abruptly. "Huh? What do you mean? "
Gu Chaliang had reunited with Ji Lingxi not long after he arrived in the Bound of Universe and helped her build the Residence of Nine Supremes. He had been dormant for a long time, so few people knew about the title of 'Heaven Teller'. Even Yun Yang had almost forgotten about it. This elder brother's greatest skill was to predict a person's fortune and misfortune within a hundred years. If it were not for this skill, how could he have written all the rankings in the Bound of Universe without being questioned?
"To Majordomo Qian, all four directions are dead ends." Gu Chaliang sighed.
With a frown, Ji Lingxi said, "Calculate again."
Gu Chaliang calculated with his fingers for a moment and said in surprise, "Hmm, it's a close call. Am I making a fuss?" As he spoke, he wore a funny smile.
Ji Lingxi smiled and turned into a cloud, chasing after Qian Duoduo.
When she asked Gu Chaliang to calculate again, she was already thinking of rushing to escort Qian Duoduo.
When Gu Chaliang calculated again, it turned from a dead end to a close call, turning misfortune into a blessing. It was just a thought. A single variable was already a world of difference, a reversal of life and death.
Fifteen thousand disciples were sent out at once, leaving the Residence of Nine Supremes with less than three thousand disciples.
Among the Demiurge-Flawed Ten, other than Kong Luoyue who was on duty, the other nine had gone to the martial world a step earlier than the other disciples.
Yun Xiuxin and the other disciples who had left the earliest were long gone, probably tens of thousands of miles away by now …
…
As the Palace of Nine Supremes' disciples ventured into the world, the Bound of Universe's martial world was plunged into chaos. All sorts of challenges, sparring, and confrontations came one after another.
The unluckiest ones were none other than the crooked sects and their disciples with a bad reputation. Countless people with evil intentions met with disaster as well. This time, the Residence of Nine Supremes had almost turned out in full force. These people were, of course, the first unlucky ones to bear the brunt.
Starting from the periphery of the Residence of Nine Supremes, the disciples stretched out in a radial pattern.
It was an unstoppable and unreasonable push. After some sects had been flattened, a few batches of the Palace of Nine Supremes' disciples had descended on the frontlines to finish them off. The saying of 'first come, first served' was undeniable here. Those who were fast would get what they wanted, but those who were slow did not know that there were already those who were fast in front of them.
Just like that, even if there were any fish that had slipped through the net, they were all caught clean, over and over again.
In the process of the Palace of Nine Supremes' disciples' baptism in the martial world, the most unlucky one was the Qian Family.
Every disciple of the Residence of Nine Supremes knew that the Qian Family was the great enemy of Majordomo Qian Duoduo. There was a blood feud between the two, and it was difficult for them to coexist. Majordomo Qian had been persecuted by this Qian Family, which was why he had founded the Residence of Nine Supremes with his master, the sect leader.
They had to avenge Uncle-Master Qian!
They had to avenge Uncle-Master Qian!
As a result, wherever the Palace of Nine Supremes' disciples ran into the Qian Family's businesses, trade routes, shops, shops, and merchants, none of them were spared. Moreover, they were repeatedly harassed and harassed again and again.
The Palace of Nine Supremes had merged the original strength of the General Commerce League, and its power had expanded again. It had set up shop in every city it passed and used every means possible to occupy the Qian Family's living space. It was almost not a case of losing eight hundred men and injuring one thousand of the enemy, but three thousand men and eight hundred of the enemy.
You have a Saint Emperor in this city?
Alright, let's send a Supreme Saint to crush them!
What? This city is bigger and has a population of tens of millions, and the Qian Family has set up two Supreme Saints here?
Alright, let's send a Supreme Saint from the Residence of Nine Supremes to crush them.
What? You want to reason with us?
Reason my ass.
We're doing business seriously. What's the point of talking to you about logic?
Why, do you want to fight?
Good, good, good. I've been looking forward to it for a long time …
In just a month and a half, the Qian Family had been defeated in half of the continent.
The three thousand men of the Palace of Nine Supremes were fine, but the eight hundred men of the Qian Family had been seriously injured!
Urgent letters from all over the country flew to the headquarters like snowflakes.
Every letter had the same meaning: I can't hold on any longer, I can't hold on any longer!
The Qian Clan was badly battered and at a loss of what to do.
The Palace of Nine Supremes followed a principle – we only occupied the market; we would never be the first to kill, let alone injure.
In spite of this, the Palace of Nine Supremes' business model was built on the foundation of disregarding costs and costs. It forcefully intervened in the local business, using the price war as the vanguard. In addition, the Palace of Nine Supremes had already won the hearts of the people. Their products were of high quality and low price, so there was no need to worry about sales …
Every shop of the Qian Family was deserted. Naturally, they would follow the General Commerce League's footsteps.
In the later stages of the price war, public opinion was rife. The Qian Family, an old merchant family, intended to dominate the Bound of Universe's business, to expel the Palace of Nine Supremes from the business world, and to suppress all of Lord Supreme Cloud's businesses. It was obvious that they were targeting the continent's heroes …
For a moment, the people were seething with resentment.
If it were any other force, the Qian Family would only need to retaliate by waging a similar war of public opinion and using some other tactics. However, against the Palace of Nine Supremes … they were at their wits' end!
The Palace of Nine Supremes had an advantage that their previous opponents did not have – the public's will, the people's foundation, and the people's hearts! Secondly, the Palace of Nine Supremes was a rising star. With Supreme Cloud's reputation, it naturally gave the people a sense of closeness and belonging.
As for the Qian Family, they had dominated the world's business for tens of thousands of years. No matter how friendly they were, their hands had long been stained with blood. In this world, there were many who had grudges against the Qian Family, and there were countless merchants who had gone bankrupt because of the Qian Family. Taking advantage of this opportunity, the people's resentment had completely erupted.
The people and martial artists of the Bound of Universe had the same attitude towards this matter – the f * cking Qian Family had earned our money for tens of thousands of years. You've long been number one in the world, yet you're still trying to bully the Bound of Universe's heroes. We won't believe it no matter what you say. It's wrong of you to suppress Lord Supreme Cloud, but it's wrong of you to target the Palace of Nine Supremes!
"Do you believe that the Qian Family has suffered a loss and been suppressed by the Palace of Nine Supremes?"
"Whoever believes it is an idiot!"
"It's been so many years, who doesn't know what the Qian Family is like?"
"Isn't that right? How can the Qian Family be bullied? They're obviously anxious because they can't earn our money! "
"Shameless Qian Family! They're too shameless!
"This is insane! It's infuriating!"
"Even if they've been bullied by the Palace of Nine Supremes and suffered a little loss, so what? Isn't that what they should do? The Palace of Nine Supremes, Lord Supreme Cloud has shed his blood and risked his life for the Bound of Universe. Can't you just take it as a tribute to the continent?"
"You're right! Compared to a certain family that doesn't know how to be grateful, we're more willing to let the Palace of Nine Supremes earn our money! At least, Lord Supreme Cloud has truly protected us … "
"If it wasn't for the Qian Family, would I have been so poor? Now the Qian Family is being bullied? Well done! "
The Palace of Nine Supremes' influence grew stronger and stronger, crossing the border like a rolling snowball, crushing everything in its path.
The Qian Family was a large family. Although they would not be hurt in the short term, it would be hard to say in the long run …
However, the Qian Family had tens of thousands of years of history. No one could say for sure who would win this battle.
The Qian Family's higher-ups made a swift decision. "Drag it out with them! Wage a price war! Let's see who can outlast the other! The Qian Family has hundreds of thousands of years of history. I don't believe we can't beat the Palace of Nine Supremes, a newly established sect that has only been around for a few years! "
The Qian Family had absolute confidence in their wealth and heritage! The world's number one financial magnate – the weight of these six words was not something that ordinary people dared to dream of!
If the Palace of Nine Supremes wanted to fight, they would fight with them to the end. Let's see who would be the first to go bankrupt! The Qian Family had used this tactic to defeat countless opponents over the years. How could the Palace of Nine Supremes be an exception?
The Qian Family was preparing enthusiastically, waiting to see the day when the Palace of Nine Supremes could no longer hold on!
Therefore, within the boundaries of the entire Bound of Universe, the forces from both sides began a vigorous commercial war. It was like a raging fire that was about to erupt.
At the same time, Qian Duoduo and his entourage were plagued with mishaps. No matter where they went, there were always groups of assassins coming to kill them. Moreover, they could not catch any of them alive. All the assassins were men of sacrifice, committing suicide without hesitation once they saw that something was amiss.
Occasionally, their identities were found, but they had nothing to do with the Qian Family. They belonged to various assassin organizations …
Moreover, the combat strength of the assassins was getting higher and higher.
Everyone knew that the Qian Family must have hired the assassins, but they could not find any incriminating evidence at all.
After a few days, many of Qian Duoduo's guards had been injured.
Fortunately, Lin Xiaorou and Bai Yexing, two of the top ten disciples of the Residence of Nine Supremes, arrived at this time and joined the guard team, temporarily stabilizing the situation. However, the enemy's attack did not stop because of the arrival of Lin Xiaorou and Bai Yexing. Instead, it grew fiercer and fiercer.
Although Ji Lingxi had been following them secretly, she did not make a move. Given the current situation, there was no need for her to do anything. She wanted to see how much trouble the enemy could stir up.
Of course, Ji Lingxi did not do nothing. Orders were sent out in the midst of countless assassinations, exposing the assassin organizations they belonged to. Therefore, they became the targets of the Palace of Nine Supremes' traveling disciples.
The Palace of Nine Supremes' purpose was obvious.
Did you not accept the commission to kill my people?
No problem, as long as you have the ability to withstand the Palace of Nine Supremes' counterattack!
The momentum grew stronger and stronger.
…
Inside the Qian Family.
Qian Shengjin was so anxious that his lips were blistering. "I think this should stop. It's no longer a matter of killing Qian Duoduo … it's a matter of the continuation of the family. Whether we can kill Qian Duoduo now or not, it won't make a difference. It will only cause the Palace of Nine Supremes to retaliate! "
It was Qian Shengjin who had decided to eliminate Qian Duoduo, but now that he had come out of the Palace of Nine Supremes and learned more about the Palace's terrifying power, the idea had completely disappeared.
What replaced it was how to please the Palace of Nine Supremes and how to keep the family alive!
However, the Council of Elders formed by the Qian Family's Old Ancestors did not agree with this.
"Qian Duoduo is the root of our opposition! As long as Qian Duoduo is dead, all the problems will be solved! "
"The reason the Palace of Nine Supremes is fighting with us is because of Qian Duoduo. As long as Qian Duoduo is dead, no one will be willing to pay such a high price for a dead man!"
"What we have to do is to continue dragging it out and wear it out until the Palace of Nine Supremes is penniless. At the same time, we can send someone to kill Qian Duoduo. This is the fundamental solution to the problem!"
"When enemies meet on a narrow path, the brave one wins!"
Tens of thousands of years of confidence had made the Qian Family look down on everyone. How could they admit defeat without witnessing the terror of the Palace of Nine Supremes with their own eyes? The Qian Family's belief of invincibility would not crumble so easily.
Qian Shengjin was so anxious that he was about to fall ill. He argued with reason, but the Council of Elders did not change its decision. Even when Qian Shengjin used his authority as the family leader, it was still rejected.
Countless higher-ups of the Qian Family were extremely dissatisfied with this family leader.
How could such a weak Patriarch lead the entire family down the road?
"Don't worry, family leader. The wealth that the Qian Family has accumulated for a hundred thousand years is the best in the Bound of Universe. Even if we hurt others with our wealth and squander without considering the cost and consequences, it will take at least a few hundred years to exhaust all of it. No force in the Bound of Universe can withstand it …"
"I'm afraid even the four heavenly palaces can't compete with us in terms of wealth, let alone the Residence of Nine Supremes, a newly established sect!"
"But if we take a step back, we'll be defeated. We'll be defeated like a landslide. That's the real end."
"The market is the lifeline of the Qian Family. We must guard it! Even if both sides suffer, there's still room for us to make a comeback! "
Qian Shengjin was filled with melancholy.
'You're right. How can I not know that our wealth is so deep that we can exhaust any force in this world?
'But …'
'The Palace of Nine Supremes is very different. It's unfathomable!'
'The Li Family and the Situ Family have already said that they can't fight back. Can the Qian Family really fight back?'
…
On the other side.
Qian Duoduo completely ignored the life-threatening crisis he was in, pushing the price war non-stop to seize the market. On the other hand, he spent large sums of money to create public opinion.
Qian Duoduo was also very confident about this battle.
Although the Qian Family was known as a ten-thousand-year-old family and a financial magnate, it depended on who it was compared to.
Qian Duoduo had carefully calculated the resources Yun Yang had given him when he came back from the Demon Clan. He confirmed that with his current spending pattern, he might not be able to finish spending it even if he spent another thousand years. Moreover, he had many backup plans. The people's hearts were all in his favor. There was no reason for him to fail this battle.
If the stalemate continued for a while and further depleted the Qian Family's financial resources, he only needed to release a batch of weapons that the Palace of Nine Supremes had eliminated and cooperate with the Li Family, a family of weaponsmiths. This alone could make the Qian Family miserable.
If he still could not deal with the Qian Family, he would release a batch of medicinal pills and deal another heavy blow.
This battle was imperative, and they were bound to win!
As long as they won, the Palace of Nine Supremes could monopolize seventy percent of the entire commercial market!
Even if there were any losses, they could make up for it!
"This is a battle of forces. We'll fight to the end. There's no turning back!"
Qian Duoduo's position was clear.
His original intention of starting this battle was not for revenge. It was just a normal commercial war. It was the same no matter who he fought with!
However, they had to fight this battle and they had to win it!
…
A commercial war was just a commercial war.
In a commercial competition, each person had their own unique tactics, nothing else.
This was the rule of the Palace of Nine Supremes.
However, for a few months, the Qian Family's headquarters had been fighting a commercial war obediently, but they had hired countless assassins in the dark. It was truly infuriating …
From the Qian Family's perspective, as long as there was no solid evidence, the Palace of Nine Supremes could do nothing, no matter how powerful it was.
It was only the assassin organizations that were unlucky.
The truth was as such. Countless assassin organizations that worked as cashiers had been unlucky because of the battle between these two families.
It was just a very ordinary job of collecting money, but it had caused them a lot of trouble, and there was even a follow-up hunt.
More and more assassin organizations were complaining and wailing.
…
The assassin organizations were found by the Qian Family from bottom to top, and then the Residence of Nine Supremes followed the trail. In just two months, seven assassin organizations that had been notorious in the Bound of Universe for a long time had disappeared from the continent.
The manpower of the Residence of Nine Supremes, the General Commerce League, and the manpower of the Phoenix Cry Sect had formed a huge net in the entire Bound of Universe. Once an assassin made his move, there was no way he could escape.
Unless he could not catch him alive, as long as he was caught alive, he could pry his mouth open and ask for the name of the organization he belonged to.
Once the organization's name was revealed, it meant the arrival of destruction!
No matter how well those organizations hid, they would only end up being found out.
As long as their tails were caught, the entire organization could not escape the fate of destruction.
What was worse was that assassin organizations were a legitimate business in the Bound of Universe. When there was business, as long as the buyer could afford the price, they would naturally make their move!
Unfortunately, the Qian Family was too rich. No matter how high the price was, it could not stop their desire to buy assassins! 'Your price is too high. Fine, I'll double the price you raised!' 'I just want to see Qian Duoduo dead!'
Then … Qian Duoduo would basically calculate the current income and expenditure every few days to confirm the profit and loss.
…
He had written for a day, more than ten thousand words. He really did not want to divide it into chapters, so he wanted to post it together after he was done. He did not expect that his head would explode until now. This chapter has ten thousand words.
