Zhou Xiaoxiao's arrival surprised Ji Zhangxin and his wife. On one hand, it was because Zhou Xiaoxiao had reached rank 96, and on the other hand, they were curious about the purpose of his trip. With Zhou Xiaoxiao's status, he actually released his Yin Yang Crown the moment he arrived at the Devil Guild. In addition to his anxious look, it was very obvious that he did this to save time. However, what matter could make an expert like him, the wealthiest person in the world, so anxious that he even went to the Devil Guild?
Xi Luo and Wofu heaved a sigh of relief. With the appearance of two Supreme-Being experts, there was naturally nothing for them to do.
This was a problem for Supreme-Being experts like them. Ji Zhangxin and Shangguan Yinkong had originally planned to leave the Devil Masters Headquarters, but because Ji Dong suddenly brought that almost miraculous formation, the two Supreme-Being experts chose to stay. One was to study the mysteries of the formation brought by Ji Dong, and the other was because of Ji Dong's request. It was Ji Dong who asked them to stay here.
"Big Brother Ji, you have to help me this time. Otherwise, I'll be in trouble. It's hundreds of thousands per second!" Zhou Xiaoxiao looked at Ji Zhangxin with a pitiful expression. He didn't have the slightest self-awareness of a Supreme-Being expert at all.
Ji Zhangxin scolded him with a smile: "Enough, you rich man. Why are you running to me and crying about being poor? Don't give me that. What's the matter? Just say it. You're in such a hurry. Don't tell me you're here to look for us? I don't remember having any business dealings with you. "
Zhou Xiaoxiao smiled bitterly: "I'm indeed here for a business matter. I'm here to look for your great-great-grandson, Ji Dong. This brat, sigh, really gives me a headache!"
Hearing Zhou Xiaoxiao mention Ji Dong, Ji Zhangxin and Shangguan Yinkong's expressions immediately became cautious. In their hearts, this great-grandson was their most precious treasure. The Equivalent Monarch's bloodline had produced such a peerless genius, and he might even become the continent's highest Supreme-Being in the future. How could they not attach importance to him? Zhou Xiaoxiao, as the foolishly rich president of the Chamber of Commerce, could be said to belong to another level. If he had a grudge with Ji Dong, it wouldn't be easy to handle.
"Fatty, what kind of business would make you come here personally? And what does it have to do with Ji Dong? I'm warning you, if you dare touch a single hair on Ji Dong's head, not only will I not forgive you, but you should also be careful of Brother Chaoyang. " Ji Zhangxin knew that this fatty had a close relationship with Yin Zhaoyang. Back when he hadn't become the foolish rich Chamber of Commerce's president, Yin Zhaoyang had once saved his life. It could be said that the fatty listened to Yin Zhaoyang's every word.
Zhou Xiaoxiao looked like she was in pain. The fat on her face squeezed together, causing her small eyes to be almost invisible. She said, "Big Brother Ji, I couldn't not come. Our foolishly rich merchant association was suddenly shut out by the two empires. How could I not come for such a big matter? It's a bit of an exaggeration to say that it's a few hundred thousand per second, but if it's a few hundred thousand per minute, that's not a problem. "
Ji Zhangxin said in shock, "What did you say? Two empires refused to let you in? How could such a thing happen? Which empire would offend your foolishly rich merchant association, and what does it have to do with Ji Dong? " At this moment, he also realized the seriousness of the problem. The foolishly rich merchant association had been operating on the continent for five hundred years. Its foundation was so deep that no other country could compare to it. Even the government had to give them some respect. Suddenly, two empires shut them out. In Ji Zhangxin's opinion, this was an unimaginable opportunity.
Zhou Xiaoxiao said, "Isn't it your Middle Earth Empire and the Eastern Wood Empire? If it's just the Eastern Wood Empire, it'll be easier to handle. To put it bluntly, if our merchant association were to exert full pressure, even the Eastern Wood Empire wouldn't be able to handle it. The problem is, there's still the continent's strongest country. The Middle Earth Empire has also announced that they're cutting off all cooperation with our merchant association. Furthermore, they want our merchant association to withdraw from the Middle Earth Empire's territory within half a month. This is a loss we can't afford.
Ji Zhangxin frowned and said, "Fatty, you can't be making fun of me, right? It's possible if you're talking about other countries, but why would our Middle Earth Empire cut off relations with your merchant association? Why haven't I heard of this before? " It should be known that the current political situation of the Middle Earth Empire was actually in the hands of the Prince Equivalent. Ji Yunsheng and Ji Yeshang, the grandfather and grandson duo, had long made the current Emperor Ji Yunlu a mere figurehead. Without their approval, it was impossible for such an important matter to be completed.
Zhou Xiaoxiao sighed and said, "This matter is also our merchant association's fault. It's like this …"
As it turned out, after Ji Dong had led the students away from the foolishly rich hotel, the message that Chen Sixuan had sent back to the Eastern Wood Empire through Chen Longao, the War God of Annihilation, had been effective. Perhaps because her threat had been too strong, the Eastern Wood Empire had, in a short period of time, announced that they would reject all trade with the foolishly rich merchant association and forbade it from doing business in the Eastern Wood Empire.
This news quickly spread to the headquarters of the foolishly rich merchant association and caused a huge commotion. The foolishly rich merchant association had been established for five hundred years and had experienced many trials and tribulations. However, this was the first time they had been rejected by a country. No one understood what had happened.
At this time, the news from the Foolish Rich Hotel in Central Plains City that Ji Dong had been rejected by the general manager of the hotel had also reached the headquarters.
In the beginning, no one connected these two matters together. As the president of the merchant association, Zhou Xiaoxiao was the first to receive these two pieces of news and was immediately furious. He immediately issued an order to remove the general manager from his position and transfer him back to the headquarters for trial. Just as he thought of the Toumu saintess Chen Sixuan who was with Ji Dong from Ji Dong, another piece of shocking news came from the Central Plains Empire. The Central Plains Empire similarly announced that they would sever all trade with the foolishly rich merchant association. At the same time, everything belonging to the foolish rich merchant association, including their assets, had to be withdrawn from the Central Plains Empire within half a month, otherwise they would all be confiscated. This move could be said to be even more ruthless than the Toumu Empire. The Toumu Empire still left some leeway, but the Central Plains Empire didn't leave any leeway at all.
Zhou Xiaoxiao naturally couldn't sit still and quarreled with the merchant association's conference group. After he linked these three matters together, the faint voices of doubt in the conference group instantly quieted down, and no one couldn't help but curse the general manager of the hotel in their hearts. For the interests of the merchant association, as well as to win back the almost perfect successor Ji Dong, Zhou Xiaoxiao immediately prepared to set off for the Central Plains City to mediate this matter. It was also at this time that another extremely shocking piece of news came. Blazing Academy's vice dean Ji Dong led thirty Blazing Academy students with an average of less than three champions in a competition with the Heavenly Stem Academy. They defeated the top thirty students of the Yin-Yang Hall with a mystical formation, shocking the magic world. The headquarters issued a joint statement with the Central Plains Empire …
Hearing this news, Zhou Xiaoxiao even had the heart to tear that general manager apart. He was originally extremely optimistic about Ji Dong, but he hadn't expected this kid to actually be able to bring so many miracles. It couldn't be helped, he could only run to the Central Plains City from the West Jin Empire's capital as fast as possible to resolve this matter. The first place he went to was naturally the Magic Master Guild. In his opinion, the recently famous Ji Dong would definitely stay here. Unfortunately, he was still a step too late.
After listening to Zhou Xiaoxiao's account, Ji Changxin's expression sank, saying: "Alright, Fatty, you've come to poach our Equivalent King's branch? It's fine that you're trying to poach him, but your subordinates actually dared to come and beat up my family's Ji Dong. Good luck. Yin Kong, let's go. "With that, Ji Zhangxin turned around and left, not leaving any face for Fatty.
"Big brother, big sister-in-law, don't be like this!" What's more, I really didn't know about this matter, it's my subordinates who are insensible, I will go back and punish them severely. Moreover, the matter of the two empires cutting off the trade with our guild is probably not Ji Dong's idea. This can be counted as an undeserved calamity, I will definitely explain to Ji Dong. However, should we first let the Central Plains Empire resume the trade with our Chamber of Commerce, or else the loss will be too great for us. "
Ji Changxin flicked his sleeves and said indifferently: "Fatty, I'm just a free cloud and a wild crane, I can't make decisions in the Central Plains Empire's affairs, you should look for the current Emperor. Moreover, if you do something wrong, you have to take responsibility, not just anyone can be beaten up. I don't know why Ji Dong agreed to inherit your position as the Chamber of Commerce's president, but I will never agree. If you want the Central Plains Empire to resume trade with your Chamber of Commerce, you should look for Ji Dong. Without his permission, I believe the Central Plains Empire will not give face to the foolishly rich Chamber of Commerce this time.
After listening to Zhou Xiaoxiao's account, he already understood what was going on. Without a doubt, this was done by the grandfather and grandson duo, Ji Yunsheng and Ji Yeshang. They wanted to stand up for Ji Dong, and as the ancestor, he, who held Ji Dong in high regard, naturally would not object. Instead, he was extremely supportive. Ji Dong was now their exclusive property, this was not a simple matter of face.
"Big Brother, I also want to look for this brat, but you have to tell me where he is now!" Zhou Xiaoxiao wailed. He was really depressed. Everything had been going well, but it had suddenly become a big problem. How could he not be in pain? In fact, he did not care about losing a bit of money. The foolishly rich Chamber of Commerce had a lot of resources, and the one who made a big mistake this time was the opposition in the council. Without a doubt, after this blow, the opposition's already weak power was fatally destroyed. He was worried about Ji Dong, the heir. It had not been easy for him to get Ji Dong to become the heir of the Chamber of Commerce. If Ji Dong ignored him because of this, wouldn't he have to serve the Chamber of Commerce in pain for decades? Moreover, he knew that he could not find a better choice than Ji Dong.
Ji Zhangxin said impatiently, "I also don't know where that stingy fellow brought his companions to. Your foolishly rich Chamber of Commerce is known as the world's number one, and its information network is enough to surpass any country. Could it be that you still can't find him?"
"I … But, we are now being chased away by the Middle Earth Empire, how can I find him? If I can't find him in a short period of time, the loss this time will be huge. How about this, Big Brother Ji, I have always admired the Magician's Guild. Since I am here, I am prepared to donate some money to the Magician's Guild. Let's make it a million gold coins. I won't make things difficult for Big Brother, as long as you allow our Chamber of Commerce to stay in the Dagger of the Middle Earth Empire."
Temporarily stopping business for a period of time, after all, the loss wouldn't be too great. But if they had to withdraw, all the money that they didn't withdraw would be confiscated. To the foolishly rich Chamber of Commerce, it would be a huge loss. Fixed assets like the foolishly rich Chamber of Commerce couldn't be withdrawn no matter how they saved it.
After pondering for a moment, Ji Zhangxin nodded and said, "Alright, I will help you this once. But, you better find Ji Dong as soon as possible. If it takes too long, I'm afraid my words won't be of any use."
Zhou Xiaoxiao heaved a sigh of relief. She sighed in her heart, "Ji Dong, ah, Ji Dong, you brat, you actually brought me so much trouble. I really underestimated you. I never thought that your attitude could actually affect the two empires."
"Big Brother, I heard that the students brought by Ji Dong have a very good formation. Can you let me take a look at it?"
Ji Zhangxin said, "If you want to go back and persuade the royal family of the West Jin Empire, of course you can."
While Zhou Xiaoxiao was running around for the sake of the foolishly rich Chamber of Commerce and mobilizing all the resources of the Chamber of Commerce to find Ji Dong, Ji Dong had already led his companions through the misty swamp and into the underground palace for the second time.
This time, it was a lot smoother. Other than Fury and Ji Dong, everyone else could use their own mana to gain the recognition of the magical formation. As for Ji Dong and Fury, there weren't many things in the world that could stop them. Ji Dong directly used his Chaotic Force to clear the energy of the formation and forcefully barged into the underground palace with Fury.
After entering the underground palace, Ji Dong assigned everyone to their respective palaces, while he and Fury entered the fire-type palace to cultivate.
This time, they didn't have much time. Their main goal was to let everyone memorize the five elemental formations and understand some of them. Everyone's cultivation was much higher than when Ji Dong and Yao Qianshu were still in the underground palace. With more than a month's time, understanding a few basic formations was not a problem.
"Ji Dong, tell me more about your Deity Strike. I don't know why, but after mastering the first level of the Deity Strike, I found it hard to progress any further. This skill is very useful. If we use it properly, even a Nine-crown Demon Master would not be able to withstand our attack." Fury had always been very interested in Ji Dong's Deity Slaying Strike. Although this skill could only be used in close combat, it was still very powerful.
