Originally, Ning Qi did not intend to stay in Heaven Connect City for long. However, after seeing such a street filled with merchant associations, a trace of curiosity arose in his heart.
He did not expect that there would be a Samsara realm cultivator offending his superior.
Now, he felt that it was not a bad idea to open a merchant association in Heaven Connect City. He could hire people to purchase the valuable spiritual herbs in Shenluo World. As long as the quantity was not too large, the primordial lands would not notice. According to what he knew, there were many ancient sects in the primordial lands that controlled the passageway to the Creation Divine Realm.
Who would know the true background of the Rising Dragon Merchant Association?
Thinking of this, Ning Qi smiled at the crowd. "Remember, whoever is interested in bringing his head to see me in three days. After three days, I will drop this matter."
After saying this, Ning Qi ignored Zhao Chen's ashen face and turned to leave. In the next moment, a voice rang out.
"Fellow Daoist, please wait."
A cultivator exuding the aura of the Sempiternal realm slowly walked out from the entrance of the Northern Dragon Merchant Association. He stood beside Zhao Chen and smiled at Ning Qi.
Seeing this, Zhao Chen's heart immediately calmed down. However, at this moment, even with the Immortal realm present, he did not dare to provoke Ning Qi anymore.
Previously, he thought that Ning Qi was just a country bumpkin. Therefore, with the backing of the Northern Dragon Merchant Association, although Zhao Chen addressed Ning Qi as senior, he did not take Ning Qi seriously.
However, it was different now. The aura from Ning Qi's token was much more terrifying than the token of their Northern Dragon Merchant Association. Facing the manager of a large merchant association that planned to set up a stronghold in Heaven Connect City, Zhao Chen's confidence instantly disappeared. Moreover, other than the primordial lands, there were very few Emperor realm experts in the other realms.
Since the Rising Dragon Token had the aura of ten Emperor realm experts, it meant that Ning Qi's backer was very likely from the primordial lands. In this case, no matter where Ning Qi was from, he was no longer someone that an ordinary Samsara realm cultivator from the primordial lands could offend.
"Is there anything I can help you with?"
Ning Qi looked at the Sempiternal realm cultivator nonchalantly. The Sempiternal realm cultivator looked to be in his fifties, just like him, a Sempiternal realm primary stage cultivator. However, to Ning Qi, he could even put up a fight against a Sempiternal realm consummation cultivator, let alone a mere Sempiternal realm primary stage cultivator.
Perhaps sensing Ning Qi's bad attitude, the Sempiternal realm expert from the Northern Dragon Merchant Association frowned slightly and said with a cold voice, "I am Li Tai, the Vice Guild Leader of the Northern Dragon Merchant Association stationed in Taili Heaven Connect City. Zhao Chen is a stubborn child. If he has offended you, please forgive him this once on account that we are from the same lineage.
"Same bloodline? Is he a junior of your sect? "
Ning Qi smiled.
Li Tai nodded.
Considering that both of them were Sempiternal realm cultivators, and the other party was a Samsara realm primary stage cultivator, the other party would usually let the matter slide. After all, there was no deep grudge between them.
Therefore, Li Tai had already made up his mind when Ning Qi asked.
"Then it can be considered as your lack of discipline, allowing your disciple to stir up trouble outside. Since he is in the wrong, he must be punished. My decision cannot be reversed. If you have any objections, why don't you ask someone to preside over the matter and we can have a fight?"
Ning Qi said indifferently.
The moment he said that, everyone's eyes flashed with shock. They looked at Ning Qi with fear. Just because of such a small matter, the other party actually wanted to have a fight with a cultivator of the same realm?
"He's a madman!"
"The Rising Dragon Merchant Association is really overbearing. I wonder which small world's passage they have in their hands?"
"I think it's most likely the small world under the central hub. The passages to those places are in the hands of the major sects. Since the Rising Dragon Merchant Association has ten Emperor realm experts as their backing, there's a high chance that the major sects are behind them."
The whispers of the crowd fell into Li Tai's ears. His expression changed again and again as he stared at Ning Qi, "Sir, are you really not going to give me any face?"
Zhao Chen's face paled. He didn't expect Ning Qi to be so unyielding. If he had known earlier, he wouldn't have dared to provoke Ning Qi. Unfortunately, it was too late for regrets.
He could only hope that Li Tai could withstand the pressure and keep his life for the next three days.
"I won't go out for the next three days. I'll hide in the Northern Dragon Merchant Association and see who can kill me!"
Thinking of this, Zhao Chen's heart calmed down a little.
"Your face is worthless."
The corner of Ning Qi's mouth rose slightly. Glancing at the Northern Dragon Merchant Association's signboard, his eyes flashed with just the right amount of disdain. Then, he turned around and left.
Li Tai was so angry that he laughed instead, "What a great Rising Dragon Merchant Association. I want to see how you can take Zhao Chen's head under my eyes."
"The three day deadline has been changed. As long as you can take Zhao Chen's head, no matter how long it takes, you can come to me to collect three billion origin stones."
Ning Qi's voice came from afar.
"There's no deadline?"
"That's great!"
Everyone's eyes lit up.
Li Tai and Zhao Chen's expression changed at the same time. Zhao Chen's legs went soft and he almost knelt on the ground. He looked at Li Tai as if he had lost his parents, "Martial Uncle, you have to save me!"
"Don't worry, whoever dares to kill you will be the enemy of the Northern Dragon Merchant Association and me!"
Li Tai said coldly and glanced at the crowd.
Many people lowered their heads in guilt.
Some Undead Realm cultivators calculated the gains and losses, shook their heads and left. Because of the three billion origin stones, offending the Northern Dragon Merchant Association, Li Tai, and the sect behind Li Tai was not worth it.
However, although Undead Realm cultivators had such concerns, Rebirth Realm cultivators did not have such concerns. In their opinion, risks and benefits coexisted. If they could obtain three billion origin stones, would they still lack cultivation resources? This was equivalent to the entire wealth of three Rebirth Realm cultivators! Some Rebirth Realm cultivators could not even take out one or two hundred million origin stones!
"Follow me back to the Merchant Association. For the next few days, don't go out."
Li Tai coldly snorted and turned to leave. He was a little annoyed in his heart. Ning Qi said there was no deadline, that meant there was really no deadline. Was he going to protect Zhao Chen forever?
Immortal Realm cultivators would go into seclusion for at least ten years, and at most hundreds or even thousands of years. How could they protect their juniors forever? Therefore, Li Tai felt that it was necessary to ask the First Vice President of the Northern Dragon Merchant Association to come forward.
"I don't believe that you won't give face to an Undead Realm cultivator!"
Li Tai coldly snorted in his heart.
A few days later.
Another merchant association opened on the same street, and the signboard of the merchant association was the same as the words on the Rising Dragon Token given to Ning Qi by the Dark Parliament!
Opposite the Rising Dragon Merchant Association was the Northern Dragon Merchant Association. Cultivators passing by looked at both sides with strange expressions.
"President, the people from the Northern Dragon Merchant Association have been staring at us. Are we really fine?"
A Rebirth Realm cultivator retracted his gaze and looked at Ning Qi with fear in his voice.
