Li Yunxiao and the others could only feel the space around them changing continuously. A dark passageway extended into the endless distance. They could neither see nor hear. However, their divine senses could sense that the people beside them were also advancing rapidly, just like them.
Soon, a beam of light appeared. The dark space was opened, and everyone fell out.
The distance from the ground was not very high, several people's feet were firmly planted on the ground. Only Xiao Xuanzi let out a blood-curdling scream as he fell to the ground in pain, but nobody paid any attention to him. He hastily stood up and patted his buttocks.
They landed on an empty field. A stout old man slowly walked toward them. He cupped his fists and smiled. "Welcome, friends. I am the president of the Thunder Wind Merchant Guild in Rain Peak City, Qu Zheng. I have long received a message from President Ji Lin, saying that a friend of the Thunder Wind Merchant Guild will be teleported here. He asked me to receive him well."
His gaze swept across them one by one, but he didn't notice anything amiss. However, when his gaze swept past Mo Xiaochuan, he was shocked. It was a bottomless whirlpool, and when his divine sense swept past it, it was immediately devoured. He was so scared that he didn't dare to do it again.
Li Yunxiao casually glanced at Qu Zheng. He was only a Seven Star Martial Saint, two stars lower than Ji Lin. He couldn't help but feel a little strange. This was already within the northern region's territory. Rain Peak City's scale and complexity were far greater than South Fire City's. Logically, they should have sent a stronger expert to guard it. Why was he weaker than South Fire City's president?
Mo Huayuan seemed to see through Li Yunxiao's thoughts. He secretly transmitted his voice. "Young Master Yun, South Fire City is rich in South Fire Gold Crystal Mine. It is an important source of income for the Thunder Wind Merchant Guild. Thus, the person guarding it is stronger. The forces in Rain Peak City are complicated, but there aren't many economic benefits. Thus, the person guarding it is slightly weaker. "
So that's why.
Li Yunxiao understood. The merchant alliance's power distribution was indeed different from ordinary forces. They focused on the source of profit, not the size of the city.
"Everyone, you must have worked hard. Why don't you rest in the merchant guild for a while?"
Qu Zheng looked at Mo Xiaochuan with a smile on his face and said with a flattering smile, "This must be the Young Master Yun that President Ji praised in her letter, right?"
He only knew that Young Master Yun was the leader of the group. At this moment, Mo Xiaochuan's strength matched Ji Lin's description.
"Hehe, to think that you're the Guild Leader. Looks like you've made a mistake."
Xiao Xuanzi coldly snorted and said, "Young Master Yun doesn't have to be the strongest. Take a look at who is the most handsome here, and that person is Young Master Yun."
He had been observing Li Yunxiao's expression along the way. He wanted to erase the bad impression he had left on Li Yunxiao, but he never had the chance. This time, he had finally snatched the limelight. He had cleverly buttered up. After doing so, he immediately felt much better and was secretly pleased with himself.
This put Qu Zheng in a difficult position. If he recognized the wrong person again, wouldn't that mean that Young Master Yun wasn't handsome? He glared at Xiao Xuanzi, then swept his gaze across Li Yunxiao and Mo Huayuan. Mo Huayuan faintly revealed the aura of a grandmaster. The more Qu Zheng looked at him, the more shocked he became. He thought that he had misjudged Mo Huayuan. This Mo Huayuan wasn't an ordinary person.
As for Li Yunxiao, he looked unusually ordinary. He was just an ordinary eight-star Martial Ancestor. For someone like him to look at him was already praising him. However … he, who had been in the business world for a long time, had a way to read people. Mo Xiaochuan, whose strength was unfathomable, and Mo Huayuan, who wasn't ordinary, seemed to be standing on this person's side, following his lead. The only woman, Mei Dong 'er, also stuck to his back like a little bird. Even when Xiao Xuanzi's gaze swept past this person, he couldn't hide the fear in his eyes.
Could it be that this person …
He was shocked and secretly scolded Ji Lin. He didn't tell him which one was Li Yunxiao. Looking at his appearance, he was indeed the most handsome among them. He carefully asked, "Is this Young Master Yun?"
Li Yunxiao looked at his nervous expression and didn't find it funny. He said, "President Qu, you're too polite. We're very grateful for the trouble we've caused Thunder Wind Chamber of Commerce. There's no need to rest. Please take us to the Inter-District Teleportation Formation. We can't waste any more time. "
Qu Zheng let out a sigh of relief. This time, he didn't make a mistake. He smiled bitterly and said, "President Ji also said in the letter that Young Master Yun wanted to go to Song Yueyang City. Unfortunately, the Inter-District Teleportation Formation in Rain Peak City was destroyed by someone a few days ago."
"What?"
The few of them were startled. Li Yunxiao's expression changed drastically. He said with an ugly expression, "Destroyed by someone? When did this happen? How long will it take to repair it? "
Mastering both martial arts and martial arts was imminent. They didn't have much time to waste.
Qu Zheng said, "Two groups of people fought over the order of using the Teleportation Formation. In the end, more than half of the formation was destroyed. Right now, the major forces of Rain Peak City are working hard to repair it. We don't know the situation. Right now, many warriors from different places have gathered in the city. The population has increased by almost half. "
Li Yunxiao said, "Oh? I didn't expect Rain Peak City to have so many people teleporting. It's only been a few days, but it has already accumulated so many people. President Qu, could you help me find out the progress of the repair? "
"Alright. Please wait for a moment. I will send someone to find out. Why don't you rest for a while? It's too chaotic outside. There are violent warriors everywhere. If they don't agree with each other, they will start fighting. It's safest to stay in the Chamber of Commerce. "
Qu Zheng called for a few maids and had them lead Li Yunxiao's group to their bedrooms. He was also very efficient. At the same time, he sent warriors to inquire about the repair of the Teleportation Formation.
The bedrooms prepared by the Thunder Wind Chamber of Commerce were very luxurious and exquisite. They must have been instructed by Ji Lin. Furthermore, there was a secret cultivation room in the bedroom. It was very spacious. There were also a hundred thousand mid-grade primordial stones placed neatly in the secret room. Everything was very well thought out.
However, Li Yunxiao was not interested in these primordial stones. Although they were small, they were still meat. He waved his hand without hesitation and kept the hundred thousand mid-grade primordial stones. Then, he began to cultivate in the secret room.
A faint fragrance assailed his nostrils. It made it difficult for him to calm down.
Li Yunxiao took out the sachet that Jin Xuan had given him. It was originally used to calm his mind. Now, it had become something that disturbed his mind. He was unable to cultivate in peace. Thinking about the matter of the Teleportation Formation, if there was any delay, it would be equivalent to putting Ding Ling 'er to death. This was something he could not accept no matter what.
Thinking of this, Li Yunxiao suddenly came out of the bedroom. He decided to investigate it himself. After all, he was a Tier 9 Alchemist. Furthermore, there was Yuan Gaohan and Mo Huayuan here. They would definitely be of great help in repairing the formation.
The status of the Thunder Wind Chamber of Commerce in Rain Peak City was far lower than in Southfire City. It was basically equivalent to a mid-tier force. The Chamber of Commerce was not located in the center of the city. Instead, it was located in a corner to the west. After all, Rain Peak City was not where the Chamber of Commerce's main profits were located.
When Li Yunxiao came outside, he saw Mei Dong 'er on the road. She was very familiar with the road. On a whim, Li Yunxiao followed from afar.
After passing through a few streets, Mei Dong 'er arrived at the bustling center of the city. She stopped in front of a restaurant. She raised her head and glanced at it. Then, she walked in.
In a few breaths' time, Li Yunxiao also arrived at the restaurant. There was a plaque hanging above the restaurant. On it were the words "Plum Fragrance in the Cold".
"Plum Fragrance in the Cold? Interesting. "
Li Yunxiao smiled and followed her in. To be able to open a restaurant in a bustling place like Rain Peak City, her background must not be simple.
Indeed, a large number of cultivators had gathered in Rain Peak City. All three floors of the restaurant were almost full. However, to Li Yunxiao's surprise, Mei Dong 'er was nowhere to be seen.
Unless she used a secret technique to escape, but it was impossible to do so under Li Yunxiao's watch. There was only one explanation. Mei Dong 'er was very familiar with this restaurant. She had left from the back of the kitchen.
He looked in the direction of the kitchen and walked over. As soon as he reached the door, his pupils shrank and he quickly retreated.
An angry shout came from the kitchen. Then, a saber radiance shot out from inside. It streaked past Li Yunxiao's side and directly struck the wall of the restaurant. In an instant, a large hole was torn open.
This immediately caused everyone in the restaurant to stop chattering and cast their gazes over.
Although everyone was shocked, not a single one of them was afraid. They were all martial artists with cultivation. They were all people who had been waiting for a few days to be teleported away. Although that saber radiance was powerful, it was not enough to frighten them.
At that moment, an old woman's cold voice came from the kitchen. "You're not worthy!"
Then, the sound of two people exchanging blows could be heard. Then, a figure flew out from the kitchen. There were still drops of blood in the air. Clearly, it was the person who had been defeated.
Li Yunxiao's pupils constricted. He stepped forward and placed his hand on the figure's slender waist, hugging her.
"Ah, Young Master Yun!"
The figure cried out and looked at Li Yunxiao in disbelief. It was Mei Dong 'er. She did not seem to care about her injuries at all. Instead, she asked nervously, "You, why are you here?"
Li Yunxiao straightened her body and let go of her. He said, "I accidentally saw you on the street and followed you out of curiosity. Someone actually injured you. It seems that the old woman inside is very fierce. Do you need my help? "
Mei Dong 'er had long since blushed when he rubbed her slender waist. She shook her head repeatedly. "No, no. This is my own business. I can solve it myself! "
The old woman's sharp and sarcastic voice came from the kitchen. She shouted, "You haven't learned any skills, but you already know how to find a man. You're really a natural slut. Take your man and get out of here. Otherwise, don't blame me for killing him too!"
Mei Dong 'er was ashamed and angry when she heard that. She stomped her feet in anger. So many people were looking at them. They wished there was a hole in the ground to crawl into.
A trace of sharpness flashed in Li Yunxiao's eyes. He stared coldly at the kitchen and sneered. "You really won't die if you don't court death."
He left Mei Dong'er behind and strode towards the kitchen.
