"Don't worry, Milord. We still have more than fifty brothers lying in ambush outside the forest. More than ten brothers have already infiltrated the caravan." The two hunters respectfully said.
Caravan? So it was a robbery. When Yun Sheng saw that the hunters and the middle-aged man's target was a passing caravan, she lost interest.
Looking at the appearance of the two hunters, they should be a medium-sized hunting group in Zhou State.
It was not uncommon for such a hunting group to be hired to rob caravans. Yun Sheng had important matters to attend to, so she did not intend to meddle in other people's business.
Just as Yun Sheng was about to leave, the middle-aged man suddenly said, "Well done. As long as you take advantage of the chaos to steal some of the accounts and treasures, when Zhou Qingchuan returns to his family, he will no longer have a chance to make a comeback."
Hearing Zhou Qingchuan's name, Yun Sheng paused for a moment.
Could it be that the caravan that the hunters disguised as bandits wanted to rob was the Everlasting Chamber of Commerce's caravan?
Although Zhou Qingchuan and Yun Sheng had only met once, it could be said that he had helped her greatly. Moreover, this person's thoughts were meticulous and would definitely become a top figure in the future.
If the Heaven Expedition Hunting Group wanted to grow stronger in the future, it would undoubtedly be very helpful if they could establish a good relationship with the continent's largest chamber of commerce.
"Don't worry, Milord. After taking your money, our Phantom Beast Group will definitely handle this matter properly. We have already made our preparations and will begin our sneak attack tonight. When the time comes, we will have to trouble Milord to delay the caravan. "The hunters and the middle-aged man discussed for a while before dispersing.
Yun Sheng pondered for a moment before immediately hiding in the bushes.
Yun Canglang saw that Yun Sheng had been gone for a while. When she returned, her expression was grave. He could not help but ask curiously, "What's wrong? Is there a problem ahead? "
"Second Uncle, there's something I need to discuss with you." Yun Sheng told Yun Canglang about the hunter and the middle-aged man she had just discovered.
"Sheng 'er, you want to help Zhou Qingchuan?" In the past few years, Yun Canglang rarely walked around the continent, but this did not mean that he did not know about the Everlasting Chamber of Commerce.
Although the Everlasting Chamber of Commerce wasn't as big as the Hunter Union, the Medicine Emperor Pavilion, the Temple of Dharma, or the Zao State, its influence wasn't to be underestimated.
It was rumored that the ancestors of the Everlasting Chamber of Commerce came from the Eastern Imperial Dynasty that had already fallen apart.
After the decline of the Eastern Imperial Dynasty, the Everlasting Chamber of Commerce did not decline along with it. Instead, it used its identity as an imperial merchant to establish a close relationship with the five major countries.
The Everlasting Chamber of Commerce's products also covered a variety of fields, from magic equipment to daily necessities to weapons.
Zhou Yuhuang, the founder of the Everlasting Chamber of Commerce, once said that there were only things that the Everlasting Chamber of Commerce couldn't supply.
"The Zhou Qingchuan you're talking about should be one of the direct descendants of the Everlasting Chamber of Commerce. As for that middle-aged man, if I'm not wrong, his position in the Everlasting Chamber of Commerce is not low. The robbery this time must be related to the internal strife of the Everlasting Chamber of Commerce. If we rashly intervene, I'm afraid it will cause unnecessary trouble. "Yun Canglang was worthy of being called a talented general. Even if there were a few years of blank time, his considerations were very thorough.
"Second Uncle, what do you think of the Zhou State's Emperor treating our Yun Residence?" Yun Sheng suddenly asked.
"Sheng 'er, what do you mean?" Yun Canglang couldn't help but be startled by Yun Sheng's words.
Yun Sheng's words implied that she wanted to betray the Zhou State.
The entire Yun Residence had been loyal to the Zhou State for hundreds of years. As a male descendant of the Yun Family, Yun Canglang had been loyal to the Zhou State since he was young.
Even though he had left the Zhou State's army, there was never a day when he would become an enemy of the Zhou State.
"Second Uncle, if the incident in Grand Emperor City is really related to the Zhou State's Emperor, your hand and Old General Yun's injuries won't be simple. Sheng 'er is only doing this to leave a way out. As the saying goes, a crafty rabbit has three burrows. We should also make some plans, "Yun Sheng said frankly.
With the current situation in the Zhou State, it seemed like a storm was brewing. Yun Sheng could already faintly smell the scent of danger.
"Then we'll do as you say." Yun Canglang was so frightened by Yun Sheng's words that he broke out in a cold sweat.
But after thinking about it, he felt that Yun Sheng's concerns were not completely unreasonable.
Since he had decided to help Zhou Qingchuan, Yun Canglang called for Zhou Quan.
Yun Sheng also described the strange demonic beasts she had just seen, as well as the attire of the hunters who each had a demonic beast by their side.
What Yun Sheng was currently worried about was that they didn't know the depth of the other party's hunting corps and their strength.
There were countless hunting corps and small teams in the Zhou State. If they didn't find out the other party's background, it was very likely that she wouldn't be able to help Zhou Qingchuan. She might even lose members of the Sky Expedition Hunting Corps.
After all, their main mission in the southern border of the Zhou State this time was the purple gold mine.
Who knew that when the hunters, including Zhou Quan, heard this, they immediately reacted.
"Young Master, I have some impression of the hunting corps you mentioned. It should be the Phantom Beast Corps. "Zhou Quan was the smartest and most adaptable person in the Sky Expedition Hunting Corps. He had a good relationship with the Hunter's Guild in Yujing City, so he was the most familiar with the famous hunting corps in the Zhou State.
Especially when Yun Sheng mentioned that the other party's hunters each had a magical beast, he immediately thought of it.
"Phantom Beast Corps? That's a B-rank hunting corps in the Zhou State? "Yun Canglang couldn't help but be shocked when he heard this.
The Phantom Beast Corps was a medium sized hunting corps made up of 50 hunters. The number of hunters in their corps was also the smallest among all the B grade hunting corps.
However, the reputation of this hunting corps wasn't small in the Zhou State.
The reason was that there was a special demonic beast in the corps, the Phantom Beast.
The Phantom Beast was a very special demonic beast. Its magic attribute was a rare attribute, the space-time attribute.
It was said that this attribute could silently hide its presence and get close to the enemy. Moreover, this Phantom Beast's defense was very shocking. Normal weapons and magic wouldn't be able to affect it. As long as the enemy made the slightest movement, the Phantom Beast would run away.
And there were a total of ten of these Phantom Beasts in the corps.
"The Phantom Beast Corps' reputation in the Zhou State's hunting world isn't good. Because they have these special demonic beasts, they have always been involved in assassinations, robberies, and other shady businesses with high returns." Zhou Quan also didn't expect that their hunting corps would encounter such a difficult character like the Phantom Beast Corps this time.
"Zhou Quan, you just said that there are ten demonic beasts in the Phantom Beast Corps? Could it be that there are ten summoners in their corps? " This was the first time Yun Sheng heard that a hunting corps could control so many demonic beasts in the Zhou State.
After all, the Zhou State wasn't a summoning nation. Normal demonic beasts could only be used as battle pets and mounts. It was very difficult to control them like summoning beasts.
"This is also something that the outside world doesn't understand. There is only one summoner in the Phantom Beast Corps. But they can indeed control ten Phantom Beasts. If only Master Zong Ren was here. "Zhou Quan was a little nervous.
