"Sigh, this Sword Demon is too terrifying. Even with the Sword Puppet's strength, I still couldn't kill him." Seeing the Sword Demon escape using the Blood Escape Art, the heavily injured Ye Chenfeng couldn't chase after him and revealed a regretful expression.
In the battle with the Sword Demon, the Sword Puppet had consumed a total of 60,000 mid-grade soul crystals, and Ye Chenfeng had also suffered heavy injuries. This made him deeply realize that he was still too weak.
"I have to hurry to the underwater cave, otherwise, I'm afraid something unexpected will happen." Ye Chenfeng muttered to himself. He quickly took out three spirit-grade soul cores from his Qiankun Bag and swallowed them. He circulated the Soul Devouring Art to refine them and heal his injuries.
About two hours later, Ye Chenfeng, who had cleared the pill poison, used the three spirit-grade soul cores to heal his injuries.
After recovering from his injuries, Ye Chenfeng didn't immediately return to the Ancient Ink Business Alliance. Instead, he took out his communication pearl and sent a message to the anxious Yue Nichang and Mo Yuyan to assure them that he was safe. Then, he took the Sword Puppet to the Celestial Star Business Alliance, the strongest alliance on Three-Star Island. He wanted to snatch the key to the underwater cave.
At this time, the Celestial Star Business Alliance and the Solitary Cloud Business Alliance immediately learned that the Sword Demon had appeared in the Ancient Ink Business Alliance and fought with Ye Chenfeng through the informants they had planted in the Ancient Ink Business Alliance.
"A Class 4 Heavenly Beast Immortal who released his sword aura and didn't fall into a disadvantage against the Sword Demon."
"What kind of monstrous genius is this? He actually has such terrifying talent and ability."
The Celestial Star Business Alliance's Alliance Master, Xing Wudao, revealed an extremely shocked expression when he heard that Ye Chenfeng had released his sword aura and faced the Sword Demon head-on.
"That person's talent is indeed terrifying, but talent doesn't mean everything. He's dead for sure now that the Sword Demon has targeted him. Once he's killed, Mo Yuyan will have no one to rely on. At that time, the Ancient Ink Business Alliance will change again. Our Celestial Star Business Alliance can seize this opportunity to swallow the Celestial Star Business Alliance's territory and strengthen our forces."
An old man in a dark gray robe, with white hair and a long beard, and eyes as deep as the sea, took a sip of tea and slowly said.
This gray-robed elder was Xing Wudao's father, the former leader of the Heavenly Star Merchant Union. He had just broken through to the third level of the Profound Beast Ancestor Xinghai.
"Mm. Once we slowly devour the Ancient Ink Merchant Alliance and snatch the key to the underwater cave abode that Mo Yuyan holds, we will be able to deal with the Solitary Cloud Merchant Alliance with all our strength. Once we snatch the key from the Solitary Cloud Merchant Alliance, the underwater cave abode will be exclusive to our Celestial Star Merchant Alliance."
Xing Wudao's flat eyes shone with ambition as he fell into a beautiful fantasy.
"Old Alliance Master, Alliance Master, bad news! That fiend has come to our Heavenly Star Merchant Alliance!"
Suddenly, a panicked voice came from afar, pulling Xing Wudao back from his beautiful fantasy.
"What's wrong? Who's here?" Xing Wu Dao asked unhappily when he saw his subordinates running into the palace.
"It's that Ye Chenfeng!" The Celestial Merchant Union's disciple reported.
"Ye Chenfeng!" Xing Wudao muttered and suddenly stood up from his chair. His expression changed drastically as he said, "You're saying that Ye Chenfeng has come to our Celestial Merchant Union? Could it be that he wasn't killed by the Sword Demon?"
Xing Wudao had already learned of Ye Chenfeng's name from the spies he had planted in the Ancient Ink Merchant Union. When he found out that Ye Chenfeng wasn't killed by the Sword Demon and had even appeared outside the Celestial Merchant Union, his heart was in turmoil.
"Could it be that he hid his true strength? Did he beat the Sword Demon? "
Thinking of this, Xing Wudao's eyes revealed a deep sense of apprehension.
"What? Does the Alliance Master want me to be killed by the Sword Demon so badly?"
Before the Celestial Merchant Union's disciple could reply, an arrogant voice resounded in the palace like thunder.
Ye Chenfeng, who was dressed in a white robe and had a tall and straight figure, exuding a fierce aura from head to toe, and the Sword Spirit Puppet, who had a cold and expressionless face, intimidated the disciples of the Heavenly Star Merchant Union as they slowly walked towards the central hall.
"What a fierce aura!"
Xing Hai's eyes lit up when he sensed Ye Chenfeng's aura. However, when he saw the Sword Puppet beside Ye Chenfeng, a deep sense of danger arose in his heart. He kept guessing their intentions in his heart and didn't act rashly.
"Ye Chenfeng, the one who wants to deal with your Ancient Ink Merchant Union is the Black Devil, not our Celestial Merchant Union. What are you doing here?" Xing Wudao concealed the shock in his heart very well as he looked at Ye Chenfeng and Xing Hai, who were strolling into the palace, and asked in a low voice.
"The two of us, master and disciple, have indeed come uninvited. We want to ask for something from the Alliance Master. Once we get it, we will leave immediately," Ye Chenfeng said indifferently.
"Master and disciple!"
After learning about the relationship between Ye Chenfeng and the Sword Puppet, Xing Wudao, Xing Hai, and the others immediately looked at the Sword Puppet with reverence.
They guessed that the one who had truly repelled the Sword Demon wasn't Ye Chenfeng, but his mysterious master.
"May I know what you want?"
Xing Wudao asked in a low voice, suppressing the anger in his heart as he sensed how terrifying the Sword Puppet was.
"We want the key to the underwater cave abode," Ye Chenfeng said indifferently as he looked at Xing Wudao's solemn face.
"That's impossible. Don't even think about it. We will never give you the key to the underwater cave abode." Xing Wudao's expression was extremely gloomy as he rejected it without even thinking.
He would never have dreamed that someone would immediately ask for his key just as he was thinking about the keys in the hands of the other two merchant unions.
If it weren't for the Sword Puppet, the furious Xing Wudao would have already taught the lawless Ye Chenfeng a lesson.
"Star Union Master, we came sincerely. You won't let us go back empty-handed, right?"
Seeing Xing Wudao's gloomy face, Ye Chenfeng smiled faintly and said fearlessly, "Don't worry.
"Ye Chenfeng, aren't you too arrogant? Don't think that you can look down on our Star Union just because you repelled the Sword Demon. Let me tell you, if you push us too far, we won't let you go back."
Xing Wudao could no longer control the anger in his heart. He smashed the square table beside him into pieces. Like an enraged lion, he glared angrily at Ye Chenfeng and warned him loudly.
"It seems that Star Union Master isn't going to hand over the key to the underwater cave abode."
The Sword Puppet standing beside Ye Chenfeng suddenly spoke. Its eyes were as sharp as knives, and its body erupted with a monstrous aura that made Xing Wudao and the others feel suffocated.
"Level 5 Mystic Beast Ancestor!"
Feeling the fierce aura emitted by the Sword Puppet, Xing Hai, Xing Wudao, and the others' expressions changed drastically as they looked at him as if they were facing a great enemy.
"Isn't it rude for you to show off in front of our Star Union?"
Just as the Sword Puppet erupted with a powerful aura, a deep voice rang out in the oppressive hall.
The Ancient Ink Merchant Union's Grand Elder Xing Yun was wearing a linen robe. His body was slightly stooped, and his hair was white as snow. He slowly walked over with a golden walking stick.
