After the Tongtian Trading Company and the Shenhun Sect announced their alliance, they did not stop trading with other parties. The major sects, empires, and tycoons could still trade with the Chamber of Commerce as usual.
However, due to the change in stance of the Tongtian Trading Company, many sects that had close relations with the Chamber of Commerce took the initiative to avoid suspicion.
For example, the Medicine God Sect...
All along, the Medicine God Sect and the Tongtian Trading Company had a very close relationship. Most of the pills sold by the Chamber of Commerce were purchased from the Medicine God Sect. The Chamber of Commerce then distributed the pills to the major branches and important places in the empire for people to choose from.
However, when the Medicine God Sect learned that the leader of the Chamber of Commerce in Haoran had always been on the side of President Li, they decisively stopped trading with the Chamber of Commerce.
As a result, the number of pills that the Tongtian Trading Company could sell became fewer and fewer.
Not long ago, the Chamber of Commerce suddenly searched the world for alchemists with generous conditions...
In the eyes of the Medicine God Sect, the Tongtian Trading Company knew that they had relied too much on the Medicine God Sect in the past. Now that they had been choked by the Medicine God Sect, they had no choice but to do so.
However, there were some people in the Medicine God Sect who were dissatisfied with the current situation and knew that the Chamber of Commerce had a strong foundation.
Qu Yun would never allow it!
He stood in front of a mountain of herbs and cursed those people for not knowing how to be grateful. After driving them back one by one into the cave, he pointed at the three people tied up on the ground and said coldly, "Since they did not take any action and only discussed leaving the Medicine God Sect, I only whipped them a little."
"But if..."
Qu Yun lowered his head and looked at the three people with a fierce gaze. "If you really left the Medicine God Island, you would have suffered more than just some flesh wounds."
The alchemists who were hiding in the cave and the dozen or so people next to them were angry but did not dare to say anything.
The three of them did not utter a single word.
Under Qu Yun's tyrannical power, anyone with half a brain would not go against him or confront him directly.
This was because everyone knew his character and knew his combat strength and methods.
"Martial Granduncle!"
A young man in brocade clothes with a thin figure was riding a luxurious flying boat and stopped in front of Qu Yun.
Then, he picked up the two corpses and casually threw them on the rocky ground in front of Herb Mountain. "These two people left the island without permission. I've investigated thoroughly. They really are going to Heavenspan Island to seek shelter with the Chamber of Commerce. "
A strange flower of blood bloomed between the eyebrows of the two corpses, as if they had been killed by a sharp weapon.
After seeing the two corpses, most of the alchemists who had already retreated back into their Immortal's Caves kept quiet out of fear and didn't dare to make a sound.
Only a red-haired old man with a walking stick could not help but step out of the cave when he saw the two corpses. His body trembled as he pointed his empty finger at Qu Yun and said angrily, "Qu Yun! They don't deserve to die, do they? "
The red-haired old man was only in the Breaking Profound Realm. He had spent his whole life studying medicine and pill knowledge, and lacked interest in cultivation. Therefore, although he and Qu Yun were of the same generation, their strength was far apart.
The two people who had died were disciples that he had personally nurtured. Like him, they were addicted to alchemy and neglected their cultivation.
On the other hand, because of Qu Yun's teachings, the young man in embroidered clothes had reached the Yin Master Realm, although his alchemy skills were ordinary.
Killing the two of them was indeed not difficult at all, as they were only in the Spirit Nurture Realm.
"Leaving the island does not deserve to die. However, if they want to go to the Tongtian Trading Company, they will be betraying the sect! "
Qu Yun grinned, revealing a mouthful of white teeth. "Red Beard, I know that you are the leader, and I know that you have always been dissatisfied with our policies and strategies. However, I want you to remember that we, the Medicine God Sect, chose the Five Supremes! If they dare to go to the Chamber of Commerce, they will be standing against everyone! "
Streaks of dark red flames flew out of Qu Yun's robes like pythons and circled around the cave where the red-haired old man was standing. They looked as if they were about to pounce in and tear the old man apart.
A few alchemists who wanted to use their seniority to mediate the situation showed fear in their eyes when they saw the dark red flames gradually transforming into pythons. They quietly retreated back into the cave.
"You are their master. Their rebellious heart must have been influenced by you!"
Qu Yun stomped his foot, causing the entire Medicine God Island to tremble slightly. The flame array in the depths of the earth seemed to have been activated by him in an instant. Rings of colorful light formed in different areas of the island, achieving the effect of sealing off the island.
"I didn't do anything to you before because I wanted to capture your two disciples and wait for the witnesses to come!"
Qu Yun's aura was ferocious. He looked at the red-haired old man as if he was looking at an inanimate object.
"Alchemists should be alchemists. If you really want to cultivate, why did you choose the path of alchemy? "
The red-haired old man sensed the changes in the Medicine God Island and knew that since Qu Yun had activated the array hidden in the island, this matter would be difficult to resolve. "Qu Yun, you should have gone to the Red Devil School or the Primal Yang Sect to cultivate from the beginning, not the Medicine God Sect. Staying here is a waste of your talent. "
Qu Yun's face darkened when he heard these words. He seemed to have recalled something from the past and suddenly fell silent.
"He went to the Red Devil School. Unfortunately, his talent was too poor, and he wasn't chosen. His talent in alchemy was only slightly better than his cultivation, so he went to the Medicine God Sect for the second best. The Crimson Fiend Sect didn't see wrongly. He used so long, so many years, but he only managed to cultivate a Sun God. "
"He clearly didn't have the ability to cultivate, but he stubbornly insisted on leading the entire sect astray. How foolish!"
A voice full of ridicule suddenly rang out.
BANG! BANG! BANG!
All of the dark-red pythons that Qu Yun had released exploded one after another as soon as the voice echoed out.
They turned into thousands of fiery sparks that carried the smell of sulfur and scattered on the ground like broken stars.
The red-bearded man looked at the strange figure that had appeared out of thin air in front of his cave abode, his clothes flowing with multicolored light. "Who are you?"
He was surprised that this person knew so much about Qu Yun's past.
Yu Yuan looked back at him with a bright smile and then looked at Qu Yun.
Qu Yun, who had been exposed, spat out flames in his sleeves. Behind him, pillars of scarlet flames formed and resonated with the Earth Flame of the entire Medicine God Island.
The irritating flame energy madly gathered toward him, greatly increasing his aura and battle prowess at this moment.
"How dare you interfere with the internal affairs of the Medicine God Sect!" Qu Yun said angrily.
"My words are not considered interfering with the internal affairs of the Medicine God Sect."
Yu Yuan smiled and looked at the familiar herb mountain, the people in the cave abode, and the people who came after hearing the news. He slowly closed his eyes.
He compared his impression of this island from three hundred years ago with the current one and gradually mixed them together.
When he opened his eyes again, he noticed that Qu Yun had completely calmed down. The anger and fierceness from before seemed to have been quickly restrained. Qu Yun was even carefully examining him with a deep gaze.
"I don't think I've seen you before."
As Qu Yun spoke, he felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity with the person in front of him.
Yu Yuan's demeanor and small habitual movements made him feel uncomfortable.
It was as if someone he had always hated had suddenly appeared in front of him.
Or, in the way of another person …
Qu Yun suddenly shuddered.
He thought of a possibility, but he couldn't believe it, and he didn't want to believe it.
The old woman, who was lying on the ground with whip marks all over her body, opened her cloudy eyes and looked in front of her.
She looked at Qu Yun, who was trembling all over, and didn't understand why this powerful figure, who had absolute power in the Medicine God Sect, would have such a big change in his state of mind.
After hearing Yu Yuan's last words, the red-haired old man suddenly fell silent. He lowered his head, as if he were deep in thought.
Then, his eyes lit up little by little.
The brocade-robed young man on the flying boat frowned deeply. He took out a stack of yellowed papers from a secret compartment beside him and quickly flipped through them.
He stopped abruptly in front of one of the paintings. Looking at the portrait on the oil paper, he quickly lowered his head to look at Yu Yuan.
His expression suddenly became sluggish, and his body stiffened as a result.
