Shuangniu Mountain, Right Ox City!
Yu Haoran looked at the shop of the Heavenly World Chamber of Commerce in Right Ox City. Not only was it still in operation, but it was also not affected by the internal strife of the Chamber of Commerce. At the same time, he could not help but admire Shen Jinwen, who was in charge of the business.
After all, with the death of President Wu Sicheng, the departure of First Elder Bian Shengrui, and the death of more than ten elders, the entire Heavenly World Chamber of Commerce was basically on the verge of bankruptcy and collapse. It could be said that it existed in name only.
The branches in the Central, Eastern, and Western Regions had been forcefully annexed by the other two Chambers of Commerce. Even the branch in Guangling City in the Southern Region, as well as the shops in the various cities, had been secretly controlled by some powerful local families and the City Lord's Mansion, changing their owners.
After recovering his emotions, Yu Haoran turned his head and instructed Yu Siqi and Pallas, "Sister, Brother Chi, let's first rest and reorganize in the Yi Yuan Pavilion in the side courtyard of the shop before heading to the encampment of the Northern Expedition Army."
Considering that among the forces secretly assisting and manipulating the Northern Expedition Army, other than the Green Hill Fox Clan that was adept at bewitching people, there was also the Zhou Clan that had a deep foundation, he was worried that he and Pallas might lose sight of one and make mistakes.
At the same time, Yu Siqi, who had cultivated the Mantra of Great Oblivion, not only did her combat strength not lose to Pallas, but her Oblivion state was also able to restrain the Green Hill Fox Clan's bewitching secret technique.
Therefore, when he left the Prince's Mansion, he had specially invited his sister to follow him.
Yu Siqi and Pallas were only interested in the battle. As for when and where to rest, they had no opinion.
Therefore, after nodding in agreement to Yu Haoran's suggestion, they followed him to the shop a few dozen meters away.
"Greetings, Prince Consort!"
The waiter, who was busy greeting customers, immediately ran to greet Yu Haoran when he saw him walk into the shop, his eyes filled with surprise.
This waiter was Lin Hua, who had served him when he first came to the shop.
"Not bad!"
Seeing that Lin Hua's cultivation had already advanced to the Martial King realm, Yu Haoran nodded his head in praise and asked with a smile.
"Lin Hua, where is Shopkeeper Shen?"
"In response to the prince's son-in-law, shopkeeper Shen is currently entertaining a few esteemed guests in Tianyuan Pavilion and is unable to see you for the time being."
When he heard Yu Haoran ask about Shen Jinwen, the smile on Lin Hua's face quickly disappeared. He quietly observed the five customers in the hall with the corner of his eyes and replied with a smile again.
However, Yu Haoran could hear that when he mentioned the guests, his tone was slightly heavier.
A thought flashed through Yu Haoran's mind when he glanced at the five customers who were choosing their goods and discovered that they were all experts at the peak of the Ninth Grade Martial Saint realm.
After that, he immediately mobilized Emperor Wu's Divine Telekinesis, which was at the peak of Rank-5, and scanned the entire backyard of the shop. He immediately discovered the few distinguished guests that Lin Hua had mentioned earlier.
"It seems that the lesson of destroying the Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion's branch in Xianyang City was not enough. Now, they actually want to continue to encroach on my territory in the Southern Domain."
After seeing that there were people he knew among the guests, Yu Haoran sneered to himself as he walked towards the backyard. He waved his hand and struck out with his palm, directly killing the five experts of the Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion who were disguised as guests in the hall.
The strong energy fluctuations immediately alerted the Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion's Martial Saints and Martial Emperors, who were threatening Shen Jinwen in the Heavenly Yuan Pavilion in the backyard. They immediately stood up and rushed out of the courtyard. They looked at Yu Haoran, who was walking over with gloomy expressions.
"Either kneel down or die!" Without stopping his footsteps towards Tianyuan Pavilion, Yu Haoran sneered and threatened.
Faced with Yu Haoran's threat, a white-haired old man with the strongest cultivation asked with a gloomy expression, "Yu Haoran, we did not offend you this time. Why did you kill the five deacons of the Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion?"
"When I got married, I asked His Majesty to issue an edict forbidding the Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion from all businesses in the Southern Domain. If anyone violates this edict, they will be destroyed, killed, and exterminated!"
Yu Haoran asked coldly as he stopped about ten meters away from the old man.
"Could it be that you have already forgotten about that imperial edict?"
"Yu Haoran, this time we set foot in the Right Ox City of the Southern Domain and bought this shop of the Heavenly World Chamber of Commerce at a high price. We have His Majesty's permission."
After hearing Yu Haoran's reason for killing the Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion's expert, a smug smile appeared on the white-haired elder's face. At the same time, he took out a golden imperial edict from his storage ring. Then, he wrapped it in Yuan Li and delivered it to Yu Haoran.
Yu Haoran took the edict from the old man and opened it slowly. A trace of astonishment flashed across his cold face.
This was because not only did the edict allow the Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion to be involved in all businesses in the Southern Domain, but the contents of the edict were personally written by Emperor Qin.
At the same time, and most importantly, the imperial seal and Emperor Qin's personal seal were stamped on the bottom left corner of the edict.
This meant that as long as it was in the Southern Domain, as long as it was within the sphere of influence of Emperor Qin's Empire, the Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion could do whatever business it wanted. No one was allowed to interfere or interfere.
Emperor Qin clearly knew of the grievances between him and the Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion. He also knew that he was having Bian Shengrui prepare a business for the Empire, and then use the Southern Domain as a foundation to develop a chamber of commerce that belonged to the Empire.
Under these circumstances, not only did he allow the Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion to meddle in the business of the Southern Domain again, but he also gave them such great authority. This made Yu Haoran faintly worried that his speculation had been wrong.
The Green Hill Foxes very likely possessed secret techniques and methods that could control or influence Emperor Qin's mind.
Originally, he had wanted to secretly investigate and gather sufficient evidence before secretly meeting with Emperor Qin to discuss how to deal with the Green Hill Foxes and the Zhou clan in one fell swoop.
Now, it seemed that he needed to directly meet Emperor Qin and find out what had caused such a drastic change in him.
He wasn't even worried about inciting his own anger and causing a rift between them.
"Go back and tell your chairman that this shop in Right Ox City is the personal property of Yu Haoran. Even His Majesty has no right to take it back or interfere."
Yu Haoran's expression returned to its cold indifference after he used his yuan power to shatter the edict in his hand.
"So, either you get the hell out of Right Ox City now, or you die in Right Ox Mountain!"
"Yu Haoran, are you thinking of rebelling?"
Seeing that Yu Haoran had not only disobeyed Emperor Qin's orders, but also destroyed the edict that Emperor Qin had personally written himself, the white-haired old man from the Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion shouted angrily.
