The speed at which the Wan Chuan Chamber of Commerce took over the various branches of the Blood Shadow was very fast.
The chamber of commerce had already entered the State of Zheng, and further west was the State of Zhou.
Zhou Jingyuan was now the emperor of the State of Zhou. How could he go against his uncle, Wang Daoyuan?
The Zhou family was also a disciple of the Valley of Beasts, and Wang Mingchen was the sect master of the Valley of Beasts. They did not dare to make things difficult for the Wan Chuan Chamber of Commerce.
The State of Zhou had a vast territory and was in the center of all the countries.
As long as the chamber of commerce could take over the branches of the Blood Shadow in the State of Zhou, it would be very easy for them to expand to other places.
As for the State of Wei, it should be because the royal family was too weak and could not make many decisions on their own.
Each sect had their own ideas. For example, the Zhenshan Sect had a feud with the Wang family.
However, the difference in strength was obvious, and they would give in sooner or later.
"This progress is very good. In another 20 to 30 years, the Wan Chuan Chamber of Commerce should be able to enter all the countries, and there will be no need for me to manage.
I plan to make a trip to the headquarters of the Blood Shadow to solve some future problems.
In case your mother and I leave, those people at the headquarters will cause trouble.
If you encounter a difficult enemy, just send a message to Jia Qi.
I'll leave something for him. There should be no one in Beiyuan who can threaten him. "
Then, he left the palace and drove the Lei Peng flying boat to the south.
When he arrived at the Wan Chuan Market, he handed the Heavenly Sun Mirror and a Soul Chasing Compass to Jia Qi.
Now, there was no need for him to stay at the Wan Chuan Market, and he could patrol the territory of the State of Yan.
Wang Daoyuan piloted the Thunder Roc Flying Ship and continued heading south. Now that he had switched to another ship, his speed was much faster.
Without using all his strength, he could fly more than 30,000 miles in two hours.
The only flaw was that the four sides were sealed, and he could not see the scenery.
In only two days, the flying boat arrived at the headquarters of the Blood Shadow in the Southern Wilderness.
He was already familiar with the place, and the disciples guarding the gate also knew him, so no one dared to stop him.
After arriving at the headquarters, he went straight to the small courtyard of the Zhou family.
Zhou Luan was not at home. She should be handling business in the meeting hall.
Wang Daoyuan took out the token, opened the array, and walked in.
Not long after, Zhou Luan returned from the Assembly Hall.
When he walked into the small courtyard, he saw Wang Daoyuan drinking wine in the courtyard. He was pleasantly surprised.
Wang Daoyuan smiled and said, "Lord Shadow Master, did you encounter some good news?"
Zhou Luan put on a straight face and snorted, "So it's the Retired Emperor of the Yan Kingdom. What can I do for you?"
Wang Daoyuan waved his hand, and a cool breeze blew past. Zhou Luan floated over.
He hugged her and said with a smile, "Shadow Master, are you still angry with me?"
"You haven't been sending any messages for the past ten years. Have you forgotten about the old because you have a new lover?"
"How would I dare? In order to find a way to convert spiritual energy into divine sense, I hid my cultivation base and went to Snow Dragon City in the Arctic Ice Field.
After spending some time there, he killed a Soul Demon and captured another one alive.
Then, he went to the Archaic Mysteries Sect and asked the divine sense imprints of those ancient mighty figures to transform the inheritance of the Soul Demon into a secret technique that humans can cultivate.
Now, my essence, energy, and spirit have reached the limit of a Yuanying cultivator and can't be improved anymore.
So, I planned to go to the Qixing Sea Xiuxian Community to find an opportunity to break through to the Soul Formation realm. In the next few years, I've been thinking of ways to improve the flying boat.
The Qixing Sea Xiuxian Community has much more resources than Beiyuan. If I can't take down the Sea Of Seven Stars, the safety of Beiyuan Xiuxian can't be guaranteed in the future.
So, I have to create a flying boat suitable for a large number of people to migrate.
Now that I've made a breakthrough, I have time to come and accompany you. "
Zhou Luan's anger subsided, and there was some sadness on her face. "Are you leaving again?"
Wang Daoyuan was touching her. "It's not that I'm leaving, it's that we're leaving.
Before I left last time, I said that I would take you out. This time, I should fulfill my promise.
It's too boring to drift on the sea for a few years.
With Lord Shadow Master, there's always something to do, don't you think so? "
Only then did she become happy. She hit Wang Daoyuan's naughty hand. "Behave yourself. At least you still have some conscience and didn't forget your promise.
I'd better not go. There are a lot of things to do here at the Blood Shadow Headquarters.
If I leave, the Zhang and Xu Families will be disloyal again, and all our efforts over the years will be in vain. "
"Lord Shadow Master, don't worry. I've already thought about it.
I'll move some of the core members of the Zhang and Xu Families to the north of the Yan Kingdom, so that the rest of them won't have enough prestige.
My clone Jia Qi, Ancestor Myriad Spirits, and many sword puppets are in the Yan Kingdom.
Not to mention an early Nascent Soul stage cultivator, even a peak Nascent Soul stage cultivator wouldn't be able to do much.
The people left behind at the Blood Shadow Headquarters don't have enough strength and prestige.
Although First Elder Zhang Yue has a high status, his subordinates are weak.
In this way, the three forces will be balanced, and no one will dare to go against the Yan Kingdom.
Then, I'll transfer Dao Jian to the headquarters and make him an Elder with real power. No one will dare to act rashly.
Plus, we won't be gone for too long.
The last time I went to the Sea Of Seven Stars, I wasted a few decades. The main reason was that I was too weak, and there were too many good things I wanted to find.
This time, I only have two goals. One is to find the pure Yin and pure Yang spiritual items needed to break through to the Soul Formation realm.
The other is to find a foothold for future expansion into the Sea Of Seven Stars.
After these two things are settled, we'll come back.
The place where we can find the pure Yin and pure Yang spiritual items is called the Sunset Abyss. I have the map of the Sunset Abyss.
There are many deserted islands at the periphery of the Sea Of Seven Stars. It won't be difficult to find a suitable foothold.
Plus the time it takes to go back and forth, it'll take at least ten years.
In such a short time, the Blood Shadow won't be able to do anything. "
Only then did Zhou Luan relax. "It's good that you're prepared. I've lived for more than 500 years, but I've never seen the sea. This time, I have to take a good look at the scenery outside."
"My cultivation has already reached the peak of Yuanying. Your cultivation hasn't caught up yet.
We have to hurry up and help you improve your cultivation. "
In the next few months, Zhou Luan spent most of her time in the small courtyard. She rarely went to the meeting hall to deal with official business.
She would only go there every few days to deal with some important matters.
With Wang Daoyuan's help, her cultivation improved very quickly.
However, there was still a gap between her and the late-stage of Yuanying.
At this rate, she should be able to break through in another three to five years.
Wang Daoyuan and Zhou Luan had just woken up when there was a knock on the door.
He scanned with his divine consciousness and found that it was Zhang Dingming and Xu Qinghe who came to visit at the same time.
Xu Qinghe's cultivation had also broken through to the Yuanying realm. It seemed that this guy had been hiding his strength before.
Wang Daoyuan controlled the array and let them in.
The two of them came to the courtyard and bowed to Wang Daoyuan. "Greetings, Your Majesty."
Wang Daoyuan smiled and said, "No need to be so polite. What are you two doing here?"
Zhang Dingming, the old fox, just laughed. "Nothing important. We're just here to pay our respects to Your Majesty.
Congratulations to Your Majesty for making great progress in your cultivation. I think it won't take long for you to break through to the Semi-god Realm. "
Xu Qinghe also flattered, "Congratulations, Your Majesty. You can expect to reach the Semi-god Realm."
Wang Daoyuan waved his hand. "You don't have to be so polite. How's the migration of your two families going?
The Yan Kingdom's Monan County and Hanhai County have long been established. The Wan Chuan Chamber of Commerce has also developed a lot of industries there and formed many small markets.
The Grand Elder will be the governor of Hanhai County and the Second Elder will be the governor of Monan County. When do you plan to take up your posts? "
Hearing this, the two of them were delighted.
Wang Daoyuan had agreed to let them move to the Yan Kingdom and even gave Zhang Dingming the position of governor.
The Xu family had joined the Yan Kingdom earlier and should also have a governor position.
It was just that there had been no news in the past few years and the two of them were very nervous.
After all, the two Yuanying cultivators were the biggest obstacle for Wang Daoyuan to take over the Blood Shadow. The two of them were really worried that they would be secretly killed.
Now that they had received a promise, they were reassured and the fear in their hearts disappeared.
Xu Qinghe quickly cupped his hands and said, "I've already made the preparations. About half of our family has already migrated. We can take up the posts at any time."
