The spacious room was full of pearls and jewels, and there were arrays of dragons and phoenixes everywhere. It was full of spirit energy.
The manager of the Tongtian Trading Company, dressed in plain clothes, sat on the white jade lotus seat with a gentle smile, and his eyes were blooming with strange colors.
She was also curious as to why Yu Yuan was able to stand in front of the door so casually.
At this moment, Jiang Yurong led the two in, and she was going to ask.
Before she spoke, Yu Yuan smiled brightly and bowed, "I am Yu Yuan, from a family of herbs in the Anyue City. Before I boarded the ship, I didn't tell you my identity. Please don't blame me."
As soon as he said this, Yuan Lianyao was immediately surprised.
She suddenly turned her head and stared at Yu Yuan, her beautiful eyes were full of confusion, as if to say, "Why did you reveal your true identity at the first time?"
However, the next moment, she suddenly understood.
Whether it was the manager sitting on the white jade lotus seat or Jiang Yurong who led them in, after Yu Yuan reported his identity, they were unexpectedly calm and indifferent.
She was not stupid, and she instantly understood that the Tongtian Trading Company had already known everything.
"Boy, you are smart."
Zhu Peining nodded and motioned for him and Yuan Lianyao to take a seat in a nearby chair that was also made of white jade. "You must have guessed that we know who you are when Yurong invited you, right?"
Yu Yuan said with a smile, "I am a branch disciple of the declining Li family. I don't have enough face to meet the real boss of the cruise ship."
"Boy, since you are so smart, why don't you guess why I want to see you?" Zhu Peining was interested.
"Because I saw Old Monster Zu on Feixia Island?" Yu Yuan was very calm. He pulled the dizzy Yuan Lianyao to sit down, took a piece of the spiritual food on the table between them, took a bite of the warm and smooth pastry, and felt the spiritual energy dissipating, and said, "Sister Castellan, you don't have to be polite with the Tongtian Trading Company."
He didn't have the consciousness of a guest at all. As soon as he sat down, he began to eat.
Zhu Peining was dumbfounded.
Over the years, she had received many guests in this room.
No matter if it was a young man with an honorable status or a great cultivator with a profound cultivation base, after they sat down, they were all very cautious at first. There had never been someone like Yu Yuan who dared to eat and drink as he pleased.
Yu Yuan and Yuan Lianyao entered together. The famous person of the Red Devil School and the City Lord of Anyue City was a bit unnatural.
However, that brat was more like a master than her. He sat down and began to eat and drink as if no one else was around.
"Aren't you afraid that those pastries are poisonous?" Jiang Yurong suddenly chuckled.
She was also very curious about this kid who was secretly named "God of Plagues" by the Chamber of Commerce. She always felt that although this kid was unrestrained in his behavior, he was actually very intelligent.
"This is a cruise ship from the Tongtian Trading Company, and it's on the fifth floor." Yu Yuan grinned as he finished the pastry in his hand and said, "If I were to suddenly die on the fifth floor under the invitation of the person in charge, then the thousand-year reputation of the Tongtian Trading Company will be ruined by me. Haha, I believe that you can't bear this responsibility, right? "
Jiang Yurong nodded. "Our Chamber of Commerce has always been open and aboveboard. We won't use such tricks."
"Sister Yuan, this thing is delicious and can nourish the soul. It's just right for you to stabilize your cultivation base." Yu Yuan pushed a plate of emerald vermillion fruits in front of Yuan Lianyao and looked directly at Zhu Peining.
The person in charge of the cruise ship just looked at him with a smile and didn't rush to answer.
"It's not because of Old Monster Zu?"
Slightly surprised, Yu Yuan frowned. "Because of my actions in the Starry Ash Sea? Did the Devil's Palace and the Goblin Temple instruct the Tongtian Trading Company to find me? "
Zhu Peining was still smiling. "Keep guessing."
"You scared me." Yu Yuan patted his chest with a look of fuss. "It's good that they didn't help the Devil's Palace and the Goblin Temple find me. Since you know me, you must have heard that I have the Fiendish Demon Cauldron. I was afraid that the Devil's Palace would come to me for the Fiendish Demon Cauldron and kill me. "
"No." Zhu Peining shook her head.
"If it's not because of Old Monster Zu, the Devil's Palace, and the Goblin Temple …" Yu Yuan pondered for a moment and shook his head. "Then I can't guess."
"I just praised you for being smart. How come you've suddenly become stupid?" Zhu Peining laughed softly. "Think about it. What does the Tongtian Trading Company do?"
"We buy and sell spirit materials," Yu Yuan said.
"That's right. Our old business is buying and selling spirit materials." Zhu Peining's gaze fell on the mustard seed bracelet on Qin Lie's hand and smiled sincerely. "We invited you here to get a promise from you and make a deal with you."
"The Giant Beast Essence Amber!"
Yu Yuan and Yuan Lianyao exclaimed in unison.
Jiang Yurong's eyes also lit up.
"That's right!" Zhu Peining didn't hide what she wanted. "I heard that you obtained the essence of some Star Behemoths in the Sea of Starry Ash. It's a rare treasure that doesn't exist in Haoran. A few important people have asked our Chamber of Commerce to inform us immediately if there is any news about the Giant Beast Essence Amber. "
"They are very eager to obtain the Giant Beast Essence Amber, and two of them have helped us greatly. That's why I invited you here when I learned that Li Qi was Yu Yuan.
"The Tongtian Trading Company hopes to purchase two pieces of the Giant Beast Essence Amber from you. You should know our company's reputation. We won't force you to buy or sell. We guarantee that you'll be satisfied with the price.
"Two pieces is the minimum we need. If you're willing to part with them, we'll buy all of the Giant Beast Essence Amber! "
When the person in charge of the ship spoke of the Giant Beast Essence Amber, he was in high spirits and his eyes were bright.
Yu Yuan sent a wisp of his soul awareness into his mustard seed bracelet. He glanced at it and said, "Two pieces at most."
Zhu Peining's smile suddenly spread across her face. "Yu Yuan, if you trust us, give us two pieces of the Giant Beast Essence Amber first. As for the actual price, as well as your needs, we can slowly discuss them. "
"No." Yu Yuan shook his head. "I'll keep them for myself. I'll tell you what I want when we get to the Split Yan Islands."
With these words, he let out a soft snort. "Senior, do you think I won't be able to survive after we get to the Split Yan Islands, so you want me to give you two pieces of the Giant Beast Essence Amber first?"
Zhu Peining glared at him. "Nonsense!"
Yu Yuan laughed. "I promise you that I'll keep two pieces of the Giant Beast Essence Amber. You can inform your buyers and tell them to prepare and see how many unique treasures they're going to offer. "
After receiving his promise, Zhu Peining thought for a moment and waved her hand.
An exquisite mask as thin as a cicada's wing floated in front of Yu Yuan.
"If you want to change your name, please treat it seriously." Zhu Peining rolled her eyes at him. "This mask can turn you into another Li Qi. If you're not in the Sun God Realm and don't examine it carefully, you won't be able to tell that the face is fake. This thing is very rare, so just treat it as a deposit for the Chamber of Commerce. "
Yu Yuan made a grabbing motion, and the exquisite mask disappeared into his mustard seed bracelet. "Thank you."
"I'm sleepy," Zhu Peining said.
"Alright, I'll talk to the Chamber of Commerce when we get to the Split Yan Islands." Yu Yuan stood up and swept away all the pastries and spirit food on the table between him and Yuan Lianyao with his mustard seed bracelet. "Sister Yuan, it's getting late. Let's go back and rest."
"Okay."
A moment later.
"How do you know the rules of Flying Clouds Island? How do you know that guy will die? "
"Did you really meet Old Monster Zu on that mountain?" Also, how do you know so many things about the Tongtian Trading Company? "
"And here I thought that the Skyspan Trading Company had invited me here so I could meet you! Damn it, that old woman never looked at me from beginning to end! "
"From the beginning, she wanted to meet you, and I was the one who came along!"
As soon as they returned to the room, the blazing red lotus was like a powder keg that had been ignited. The flames surged and burned Yu Yuan's arm for a while, pinching and twisting it. He was so angry that his teeth itched.
Yu Yuan hurriedly bowed and apologized. "Flying Clouds Island is named after Patriarch Zu's deceased wife. This island was also the place where Patriarch Zu's wife cultivated. "
"The two of them fought side by side in outer space. After his wife died, Patriarch Zu buried her on that small mountain."
"Patriarch Zu had a strange habit. He didn't tell the public about this because he wanted the souls of the unlucky and reckless people to be sacrificed to his wife. There was still a wisp of his wife's unconscious soul, which was in the dark space inside the small mountain. Every now and then, the soul will need to absorb some soul nourishment to sustain itself. "
"Patriarch Zu was a benefactor to this world. What he did was harmless, and no one really cared about it."
"Only some rogue cultivators would mess around on Flying Clouds Island without knowing the reason. If those people died, they died. No one would care. "
"Patriarch Zu's Yin Spirit is below, his Yang Spirit is on Heaven Reaching Peak, and his true body has been guarding outer space for a long time."
"Whether it's the three great sects, the Devil's Palace, the Goblin Temple, or the Tongtian Trading Company, they would all give Patriarch Zu face. Because for hundreds of years, he had been guarding a vital part of Haoran's world in the outside world. "
"…"
Yu Yuan explained the inside story of Flying Clouds Island to her in detail, and slowly comforted her.
The two talked for most of the night, and Yuan Lianyao didn't stop until she figured it out. "That Patriarch Zu was actually an infatuated person."
"He was indeed infatuated, but his wife's hands were stained with blood before she died. Who knows how many people died at her hands." Yu Yuan frowned. "If it weren't for Patriarch Zu being strong enough and contributing to Haoran's world, his wife would have been killed by the three great sects long ago."
Yuan Lianyao snorted. "I think Patriarch Zu is very affectionate and manly!"
Yu Yuan chuckled and didn't take it too seriously.
Not long after, the "sea boat" set sail again. Many rogue cultivators who set foot on Flying Clouds Island didn't return.
Most of those who didn't return died on Flying Clouds Island.
A few days later.
Yu Yuan heard a knock on the door when he was refining his body with the "Fiend Body Tempering Art." He was about to get up and open the door when he found that Yuan Lianyao had opened the door first.
Then he heard Zhang Man's soft voice outside. "Um, our time on the second floor is up. We were kicked out by the Tongtian Trading Company. We don't have any more spirit stones … "
Yu Yuan's face turned cold. He felt that Zhang Miao of the Yin Charm Sect was really persistent and had her eyes on him.
Now that he was with Yuan Lianyao, the two sisters still dared to find him?
At the door.
Yuan Lianyao's beautiful eyes flashed with a dangerous light. She didn't look at the puppet sister at all and didn't listen to her words. She only stared at her sister, Zhang Miao, who was timidly pinching the corner of her clothes and looking uneasy.
Feeling her gaze, Zhang Miao quietly raised her head and met her eyes.
The timidity and uneasiness in Zhang Miao's eyes gradually disappeared.
It was replaced by provocation and coldness.
She was like a poisonous snake that was hiding in the shadows and would jump out at any time.
"Scram!"
Yuan Lianyao snorted and closed the door with a bang. She was so angry that her delicate body trembled. "That little bitch wants to die? You've gone too far! I'm so angry! "
