Ji Ruyan sat paralyzed on the ground, holding her neck and coughing in pain. Yun Che turned his back and said coldly: "I saw with my own eyes the miserable situation of the wood spirits, and also saw with my own eyes the tragic fate they suffered... Just
In the place where they had been carefully huddled, all the wood spirits, regardless of men, women, old and young, were brutally killed..."
"They were by no means heinous. On the contrary, they were so pure that anyone who came into contact with them would be purified... yet they were so tragically buried under the hands of the Soul Sect! Before that, I don't know how many wood spirits and other creatures suffered this fate.
.You, the Black Feather Chamber of Commerce, may not be directly involved, but you have always been helping the evildoers... You are indeed worthy of your death!"
"..." The pain gradually subsided, and Ji Ruyan still slumped on the ground, her lips turning white, gasping for breath, and did not refute.
"I returned to Blackya City just to kill people! People from the Soul Sect, people from the Black Feather Chamber of Commerce...including you, of course!"
Ji Ruyan: "..."
"I won't kill you for now, because I want to hear why you met with me alone. You'd better give me a good reason, otherwise, I will be the first to use your blood to pay homage to the souls of those wood spirits!" Yun
Che's cold voice carried an even colder murderous intent.
Ji Ruyan slowly raised his head and said softly: "Master... do you really want to kill people from the Soul Sect? Just because they hunt wood spirits?"
"They deserve to die!" Yun Che said with gloomy words.
Feeling Yun Che's gloomy and piercing killing intent so close, Ji Ruyan's face showed not fear, but joy: "If this is the case, then Ruyan really made the right bet."
She stood up, her bright eyes trembling slightly: "Master Lingyun, please...save the Black Feather Chamber of Commerce."
"???" Yun Che frowned: "Save the Black Feather Chamber of Commerce? Are you kidding?"
"Young Master is a man of great righteousness. Since Young Master hates the Soul Sect so much, he must also hate the Black Feather Chamber of Commerce who 'helps the emperor to do evil'. But things are definitely not what the Young Master sees."
Ji Ruyan bit her lips lightly, with a hint of sadness in her eyes: "The rise and fall of a chamber of commerce often happens overnight. The long-term prosperity of a chamber of commerce is far more difficult than that of a dynasty or a sect. And I, Heiyu,
The Chamber of Commerce has existed for fifty thousand years, which is longer than any sect in the Black Ya Realm. Even in the entire God Realm, there are very few chambers of commerce that can flourish for so many years, and even fewer in the lower star realms."
"With such a strong history and heritage, the Black Feather Chamber of Commerce has deep-rooted foundations, not to mention wealth and fame... But, have you ever thought about why such a Black Feather Chamber of Commerce risked destruction and ruined reputation?
Taking risks and doing dirty underground transactions, the profits earned are still negligible."
"..." Indeed, after knowing the status of the Black Feather Chamber of Commerce and seeing its magnificence, Yun Che wondered about this question more than once. He said coldly: "Don't you want to tell me that you were forced by the Soul Sect?
Bar?"
"It's more than just persecution." Ji Ruyan said: "Previously, in the Black Ya Realm, the Black Feather Chamber of Commerce and the Black Soul Divine Sect were both powerful, and they could be considered peaceful. However, a thousand years ago, the Soul Sect suddenly launched an attack, and they despicably held them hostage.
He defeated my father, who was still a child at that time, and forced my grandfather to agree to the Soul Sect to integrate their dirty underground chamber of commerce into the Black Feather Chamber of Commerce."
Yun Che: "..."
"My grandfather had nine children in total, but except for my father, all of them died in infancy. My grandfather was forced and finally had to accept... Not long after, my father was released after the Black Feather Merchant Guild sold the first Wood Spirit Bead, and
This handle of the Black Feather Chamber of Commerce was also firmly grasped by the Soul Sect. From then on, the Soul Sect was completely forced into the quagmire of darkness. Every time the underground transaction was forced to be completed, the Soul Sect would leave it as a mysterious shadow stone.
Submitting complete certificates... forcing the Black Feather Chamber of Commerce to sink deeper and deeper,"
"From then on, the Black Feather Chamber of Commerce had to be controlled by the Soul Sect. Otherwise, once the Soul Sect made those certificates public, everything owned by the Black Feather Chamber of Commerce would be destroyed, and it would become a miserable place that would be condemned and cast aside by the world and even future generations.
situation.”
"And the Soul Sect does this not just to control our Black Feather Chamber of Commerce, but to firmly control the entire Black Ya world. Because every dirty and sinful underground transaction leaves behind not only Black Feather
The Chamber of Commerce’s handle, as well as those customers’ handle! The Black Feather Chamber of Commerce must inform the Soul Sect in extremely detailed information about all customers’ information and items they want to buy. Even the transaction scene will be completely recorded with Xuanying Stone secretly..."
"Oh, if you are playing with such a big fire, aren't you afraid of burning yourself first?" Yun Che said disdainfully.
"Of course not... because it is not the Soul Sect that executes the underground transactions, but our Black Feather Chamber of Commerce. If this incident really happens, the Black Feather Chamber of Commerce will be destroyed, but it will definitely not harm the Soul Sect."
Ji Ruyan sighed softly: "Not long after that, my grandfather felt ashamed of his ancestors and died in depression. After my father inherited the Black Feather Chamber of Commerce, the only thing he could do was to be careful and careful. He must never let the world know that the Black Feather Chamber of Commerce was still like this.
On the dirty side, for this reason, he does not hesitate to personally manage the underground chamber of commerce. He will personally receive and check every guest, especially new customers, without making any omissions."
"So, the 'Mr. Ji' I met that day is your father...that is, the current head of the Black Feather Chamber of Commerce?" Yun Che said. He really didn't expect this. And no one would have thought of it.
The person in charge of such a huge chamber of commerce would actually "receive guests" personally.
No wonder, when he directly mentioned the "Wood Spirit Pearl", he showed deep rejection and disgust... and the subsequent changes also showed too much unnaturalness.
"Yes, it is my father." Ji Ruyan nodded, looking at the surprise flashing in Yun Che's eyes, she smiled bitterly: "It is about the reputation and life and death of the Black Feather Chamber of Commerce. My father can only do it personally. If it is left to anyone else, he will not do it.
Can’t really rest assured.”
"However, please rest assured, Young Master, what we gave the Soul Sect about you is forged and false information. We told the Soul Sect that you are from the distant Jingyue Realm, and even if they go there to trace it, it will take a long time.
The only ones who know your true origin are my father and me. Young master must be wondering why he could deceive the Soul Sect so easily... In fact, the main purpose of the Soul Sect is to control the major sects in the Black Ya Realm. For outside guests, unless they have special status,
, otherwise they have never been too concerned. In addition... you used the black feather stone of the Fire Sect Master of the Flame God Realm, and the Fire Sect Master's identity was forged... and you were the only one who took the risk.
The person who pretends to have an inferior identity also pretends to be from the Pure Moon Realm."
"..." Yun Che's eyes narrowed. Hearing this, he finally understood something. He said with a half-smile: "I see. No wonder, no wonder. I just said that there was something in the way you looked at me last night.
Why is Yin so strange? You just asked me to save your Black Feather Chamber of Commerce... It turns out that you are not asking for me, but you want to use the power of the Flame God Realm to help your Black Feather Chamber of Commerce get out of this quagmire.
.”
"That's right!" Ji Ruyan responded excitedly: "While my father was carefully in charge of the underground chamber of commerce, he was also looking for a way to escape. Until... hundreds of years ago, my father encountered Huo who was in desperate need of the Wood Spirit Pearl.
Like the leader of the Fierce Fire Sect."
"It's common for powerful men from the middle star realm to come to the Black Ya Realm to look for things, but those in high positions will never bother to come there in person, especially for forbidden objects such as the Wood Spirit Pearl, and they will never do it in person.
But Huo Rulie, as the supreme being in the Flame God Realm, personally came to look for the Wood Spirit Pearl, which was also the first time my father met it, and this also shows the temperament of Sect Master Huo."
"After easily seeing through the identity of the Huo Sect Master, my father had some thoughts. For the first time, he forged the identity of a 'guest' and sold the best wood spirit bead to the Huo Sect Master. After that, every day, my father
Every once in a while, I will deliberately reserve a wood spirit bead, but whatever the Fire Sect Master asks for, I will immediately grant it."
"Your father wants Master Huo to owe him a favor?" Yun Che understood immediately.
"That's right." Ji Ruyan nodded: "My father said that Master Huo has a strong and upright temperament, and he can clearly distinguish between grudges and grudges, but at the same time he does not lose track of the right path. This kind of people must repay vengeance and repay kindness, and they are never willing to owe anyone favors. Over the years,
, my father has been working hard to save enough favors from the Fire Sect Master. If the time comes, he can ask the Fire Sect Master to help the Black Feather Chamber of Commerce get rid of the control of the Soul Sect... Although the Soul Sect dominates the Black Ya world.
, but beings like those in the Flame God Realm want to suppress the Soul Sect with ease."
"Humph." Yun Che smiled half-heartedly: "But unfortunately, the Black Feather Stone of the Fire Sect Master was transferred to my hand, proving that he will not come again in the future, so you just turned your attention to me?"
"Yes." Ji Ruyan nodded, with deep pleading in his eyes: "The black feather stone not only symbolizes the status of a special 'distinguished guest', but also contains deep taboos. People like the Fire Sect Leader absolutely do not want people to know that he has come many times.
The lower star realm bought a forbidden object like the Wood Spirit Pearl, but he handed it over to the young master, which proves that the young master must be someone very close to and trusted by the Huo Sect Master."
Yun Che: "..."
"Last night, the young master spent hundreds of millions without changing his expression, as if he was throwing away an ordinary stone. He knew that the other party was the master of the Hun Sect branch, but he severely injured him without any scruples. This shows that the young master did not take the Hun Sect in his eyes at all. In addition, the young master
Even though he was at the early stage of the Divine Soul Realm, he could easily defeat the Divine Tribulation Realm. This kind of talent was unheard of by my father and Ruyan... Both Ruyan and my father were absolutely convinced that the young master's background must be extremely extraordinary, and he might even be above the Flame God Realm.
.”
Yun Che raised his hand and pinched his chin, speechless for a moment.
This is a huge misunderstanding.
The reason why he threw the four billion purple black stones without changing his expression was because he grabbed them casually from the Ice Wind Empire's treasure house instead of earning them with all his strength, so he didn't feel any physical pain at all. As for the black man who was seriously injured.
The middle-aged man in clothes just simply kicked away the obstacle that prevented him from getting the Wood Spirit Pearl. At that time, he didn't even know that the Soul Sect was a weird thing.
"With the young master's ability, we will be able to save our Black Feather Chamber of Commerce from the quagmire. Or, the young master will turn to the Huo Sect Master. I believe that based on my father's friendship with the Huo Sect Master over the years, and the young master's personal words, the Huo Sect Master will definitely help."
Yun Che: "..."
"Sir, this move is definitely not just about saving our Black Feather Chamber of Commerce." Ji Ruyan continued to plead: "Countless large and small sects and chambers of commerce in the Black Ya world are all under the control of the Soul Sect. The Soul Sect, which covers the sky with one hand, is in the Black Ya world.
He was so unscrupulous that he committed more than just hunting wood spirits... Just like the Zhefeng Villa mentioned at last night's trade fair, he actually wiped out the whole family at the hands of the Soul Sect! The reason was just that he wanted to occupy Zhefeng Villa.
After they brutally massacred Zhefeng Villa, they imprisoned the swordsmiths in the Soul Sect like slaves, refining weapons for the Soul Sect all day long. As for the tragic end of the eldest lady of Zhefeng Villa, the Young Master had witnessed it with his own eyes last night.
What you see.”
Yun Che: "..."
"The young master bought the royal wood spirit with hundreds of millions of gold, but gave it away. Because he saw the soul sect massacre the wood spirit, he wanted to kill the soul sect in anger. It shows that the young master is a righteous man... Please save me, Black Feather Chamber of Commerce, Black Feather.
The Chamber of Commerce...and the Black Ya Realm will never forget Young Master's great kindness."
Speaking sadly, Ji Ruyan bowed deeply.
"..." Yun Che was speechless for a long time. It was obvious that Ji Ruyan had completely misunderstood... but the misunderstanding was justified.
But it's a pity...
Yun Che looked down at Ji Ruyan and said coldly: "Miss Ruyan, do you... think I'm particularly stupid?"
Ji Ruyan raised his head: "Master, why did you say this?"
"Although I have only been in the Black Ya Realm for a few days, I also know that in terms of history and foundation, the Black Feather Chamber of Commerce, which has stood for 50,000 years and has not collapsed, will definitely surpass the Soul Sect. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is far better. I
Previously outside Blackya City, I heard with my own ears that the Soul Sect still relies on the intelligence network of your Black Feather Chamber of Commerce - such a Black Feather Chamber of Commerce was so easily suppressed by the Soul Sect a thousand years ago, let alone counterattack in the future.
He doesn't even have the strength to resist," Yun Che said with a faint smile: "Do you think I will believe it?"
Ji Ruyan said anxiously: "No, no, Ruyan definitely did not deceive the young master..."
"I believe you didn't lie to me." Yun Che's voice was still cold: "Let me ask another question, did you miss something, such as..."
