With a twist of his hand, the signboard in Xiao Chen's palm spun rapidly. Then, he sent it flying forward. "Bang! Bang!
Bang! "
Xiao Chen had secretly infused a strand of Primordial Energy into the signboard. Now, the ordinary signboard immediately turned into a great killing weapon.
Before these Blue Robed Emperor experts could react, their calves were crushed. They cried out in pain and knelt on the ground.
It was clear that not all the Heavenly Essence Merchant Association experts were kneeling on the ground.
The ones kneeling on the ground were the cultivators who had trampled on the signboard earlier. When the remaining people saw this scene, they did not dare to act rashly.
"Whoosh!
Whoosh! "After spinning a few times, the signboard returned to Xiao Chen's hand. With a 'huang dang' sound, he placed the signboard on the ground. Xiao Chen opened his mouth and sucked in the strand of Primordial Energy that he had yet to use. Then, he said softly, "Scram!"
These were clearly two simple words. However, when Xiao Chen spoke, the sky changed color. A surging and strong energy surged out, sounding like thunder.
As lightning flashed and thunder roared, the remaining cultivators of the Heavenly Essence Merchant Association were blown into the air by these two words. In the next moment, they were blown to an unknown location, their figures nowhere to be seen.
The many cultivators who had criticized the Green Dragon Chamber of Commerce earlier were all stunned.
They did not know where this ruthless person came from. Without doing anything, he killed the blue-clad man. Then, when he opened his mouth, he knocked away a group of cultivators hired by the Heavenly Essence Merchant Association.
This was simply incredible, flabbergasting.
The strength of Primordial Energy astonished Xiao Chen as well. He had not expected just one strand of Primordial Energy to deal with this group of people so easily.
After handing the signboard back to Kim Tae-ho, Xiao Chen glanced at the kneeling Heavenly Essence Merchant Association cultivators and said indifferently, "Since you dare to trample on the signboard of the Green Dragon Chamber of Commerce, don't blame me for being tyrannical. Kneel here for one day."
Those who humiliated others would be humiliated by others.
The many cultivators who came to watch the show finally understood why Kim Tae-ho could smile. It was all because of the white-robed man.
Smashing someone's signboard was the greatest humiliation, so he would use an even greater humiliation and a more domineering method to return the favor.
He seemed to be very quiet, but the methods of this white-clothed man shocked everyone.
If news of the Heavenly Essence Chamber of Commerce's hired thugs kneeling here for a month were to spread, the Heavenly Essence Chamber of Commerce's reputation would be completely tarnished.
"You want us to kneel here for a month? No way!"
The five members of the Heavenly Essence Chamber of Commerce kneeling on the ground roared angrily when they heard this. They took a deep breath and tried to use their Heavenly Laws to drive the power of the world and fly away.
However, to their horror, they discovered that Xiao Chen wasn't using any sort of power. Even when they used their Demi-Immortal laws, they couldn't shake Xiao Chen's restrictive spells.
Xiao Chen smiled coldly to himself. Primordial Energy was a purer and stronger energy than the power of the world. It was something that only Emperor Wu could use.
The strongest among these people was only a Great Perfection Blue Robed Emperor. Trying to shake Primordial Energy was like a baby trying to move a mountain.
"I said kneel for a month, so kneel for a month. No one will be able to make you stand up!"
Xiao Chen stepped forward and sent out another palm strike on each of the five's shoulders. Then, he used another strand of Primordial Energy to completely restrict the five.
Without a month's time, that strand of Primordial Energy would not scatter. It would be impossible for this group of people to stand up. As long as they were not an expert on the level of the Old Black Iron Monster, it would be impossible for anyone to remove the restriction.
If someone tried to do it forcefully, the scattered strand of Primordial Energy would gather into a torrent and teach that person a huge lesson.
"Dabao, hang up the signboard." Xiao Chen turned his head and instructed, "I want to see who else dares to smash the signboard of the Green Dragon Chamber of Commerce."
Who was the signboard of the Green Dragon Chamber of Commerce? It was Xiao Chen's signboard. If these people dared to smash his signboard, it would be equivalent to slapping him in the face.
Although Xiao Chen did not show any anger on the surface, he was already furious in his heart. If others do not offend me, I will not offend them. If others offend me, I will return the favor tenfold.
"The Blue Dragon King! He must be the Blue Dragon King!"
"So, he is the Blue Dragon King, our big boss behind the scenes. He is indeed tyrannical!"
When the group of cultivators from the Green Dragon Chamber of Commerce looked at Xiao Chen again, how could they not guess his identity? All of them had smiles of admiration on their faces. They had long heard of the legend of their master.
It would take three days and three nights to recount all of them.
Now that they saw him in person, they knew that the rumors were true. The youngest conferred King in the history of Bushin Palace was indeed tyrannical and boundlessly elegant.
Kim Tae-ho chuckled and said a few words to his subordinates. Then, he pulled Xiao Chen up the stairs. He smiled embarrassedly and said, "Sorry, I did not expect to embarrass myself in front of you."
Xiao Chen waved his hand and said, "There's no need. I should be the one apologizing to you. I really did not know that opening a new branch would be so difficult and full of twists and turns. It was really not easy for you to grow the Green Dragon Chamber of Commerce to its current scale. "
The two chatted as they walked. When they arrived at a table on the second floor, Kim Tae-ho smiled and said, "The current Green Dragon Chamber of Commerce is really nothing much. Our accumulations are still too little. In the end, our accumulations cannot compare to those large merchant associations that have been around for hundreds or even thousands of years."
Xiao Chen nodded and said, "There is no need to rush. Accumulations can only be built up over time."
Kim Tae-ho recalled something and said, "That's right, I received your letter. Unexpectedly, you managed to obtain a conferred land in the Human-Demon Sea without anyone noticing.
"This way, I will be able to establish a smooth sea trade route through the Heavenly Starry Ocean's Dark Sea, Dragon Grave Sea, and Human-Demon Sea. There is only one merchant association in the entire oceanic world that can have such a long trade route. In less than ten years, I guarantee that the Green Dragon Chamber of Commerce will become one of the four great merchant associations of the entire oceanic world. "
Xiao Chen smiled faintly. He had never doubted Kim Tae-ho's ability.
"Who is so bold as to dare to kill the manager of my Heavenly Essence Merchant Association's branch? Are they tired of living?"
As the two chatted and drank, a thunderous voice suddenly came from outside the building. The strong aura of a half-step Emperor Wu surged over.
The entire shop shook intensely, making it hard for people to stand stably.
Xiao Chen raised his eyebrows and drained the wine in his cup. Then, he smiled faintly and said, "Finally, someone who is slightly more presentable."
"Dang!"
The wine cup landed heavily on the table. In that instant, the shaking shop suddenly quietened down.
Inside the shop, Kim Tae-ho's expression changed slightly. "Xiao Chen, the one who came seems to be a half-step Emperor Wu."
Xiao Chen nodded and smiled calmly. "I know. However, I really do not care about a regular half-step Emperor Wu."
As Kim Tae-ho watched Xiao Chen leap down the pavilion, he was slightly stunned. He could not understand how Xiao Chen had improved so quickly after leaving for close to a year.
--- Outside the Green Dragon Chamber of Commerce, the surrounding cultivators all scattered. The reason was obvious. Everyone knew that the Heavenly Essence Merchant Association's branch in the city had a half-step Emperor Wu overseeing it.
The cultivators of the Heavenly Essence Merchant Association's branch were restrained and forced to kneel on the street. With such a big matter happening, the half-step Emperor Wu would definitely make a move.
If the Heavenly Essence Merchant Association could not get back at Xiao Chen, its reputation would plummet. It might even fall out of the ranks of the Dragon Grave Sea's four great merchant associations.
For a long time, the Martial Heavenly Merchant Association had always been the one showing off and acting tyrannically. Now that they had run into a tough opponent and had a good show to watch, these people were naturally unwilling to leave.
"Elder Feng, save us!"
When the five Heavenly Essence Merchant Association's Blue Robed Emperor kneeling on the street saw Elder Feng, they immediately cried out for help.
They had already been restrained here by Xiao Chen for an hour. The gazes directed at them from all directions made them feel so sullen that they wanted to die.
However, the crux of the matter was that it was difficult for them to even move. Wanting to die was an extravagant hope. How humiliating would it be for the Blue Robed Emperor to kneel on the street for a month?
Those who humiliated others would be humiliated by others. When these people trampled on the dignity of a merchant association in front of all the cultivators in the city, they should have been prepared to be humiliated as well.
They could not blame others for the evil they brought upon themselves.
When Elder Feng, the half-step Emperor Wu, saw the five people kneeling on the ground, he immediately rushed over. When he saw the people watching them make a fool of themselves, he felt his face burn.
Elder Feng cursed angrily, "Bunch of trash! You can't even stand up. You have utterly embarrassed the Heavenly Essence Merchant Association."
"Elder Feng, we are willing to accept any punishment. Please let us stand up first."
The five kneeling cultivators felt sullen in their hearts. However, they did not dare to refute.
Xiao Chen drifted down. When he saw Elder Feng's strength, he felt confident. He crossed his arms and watched coldly as the other party made a move. His lips curled up in an indistinct smile.
"Why is that white-clad youth so calm?"
"He is not even afraid of the half-step Emperor Wu. That is too exaggerated!"
"I heard that he is a descendant of the Qing Emperor back then. He is the center of our oceanic world, the outstanding talent of the Heavenly Starry Ocean's younger generation. However, he defeated him in one move at the Four Seas Hero Gathering!"
"Even if he is a descendant of the Qing Emperor and his strength has improved greatly, he should still be cautious when facing the half-step Emperor Wu. Right now, he does not care at all."
Outside the Human-Demon Paradise, the news of Xiao Chen killing twelve half-step Martial Emperors in a row had not spread. As for the cultivators near the Dragon Grave Sea, they had not heard about it yet.
The cultivators near the Dragon Grave Sea all had their doubts about whether Xiao Chen could defeat the half-step Emperor Wu. When they saw Xiao Chen's current actions, they felt even more confused.
The Heavenly Essence Merchant Association's Elder Feng glanced at the calm Xiao Chen and said coldly, "After I break your restriction, I will deal with you. No one in the Dragon Grave Sea has ever offended the Heavenly Essence Merchant Association and ended up with a good result."
Xiao Chen retorted, "No one has ever smashed the reputation of the Green Dragon Chamber of Commerce and ended up with a good result. The person in front of you is the best example. If I say I want them to kneel, they will kneel. You alone are not enough to make them stand up. "
"How arrogant! This old man is a half-step Emperor Wu. Do you think I cannot break your restriction? Don't you think too highly of yourself? You're really unscrupulous when you talk. "
Seeing Xiao Chen so arrogant, Elder Feng did not get angry. Instead, he laughed, finding this somewhat interesting.
"White-robed brat, don't be arrogant. Elder Feng is a half-step Emperor Wu. Do you think he cannot break your restriction?"
