"Lord Leader, Liu Qi is the deputy leader of the Merchant Alliance and is willing to step forward in this time of crisis!"
While others were still shocked and hesitant by Ling Qingzhu's words, Liu Qi was the first to step forward and stand up.
Liu Qi took the position of deputy leader of the Merchant Alliance because of Ling Qingzhu's official decision. Others didn't say it on the surface, but they must still feel dissatisfied deep down, and they just lamented why they were not so lucky.
However, after seeing this scene, no one is dissatisfied. No one will always be lucky. Opportunities must be grasped by oneself.
Liu Qi's courage to be the first to stand up when others were still hesitant can be the reason for his current status.
"The old man has only been cultivating for a while, and his cultivation has been stagnant in the middle stage of the Soul Forging Realm for more than three thousand years. He has survived until now only because of an obsession in his heart. His life span is now only a few decades. If nothing else, he will stop here in this life, but
The Merchant Alliance has given me hope. Now that the Merchant Alliance is in trouble, I am willing to contribute."
The second person who stood up was a skinny old man with a stooped figure. The heavy aura of death lingering around his body showed that he was not lying.
Ling Qingzhu could see the death aura of demon cultivators practicing sorcery and the death aura of decaying life as their true lifespan was about to end.
"My subordinates are also willing to contribute to the Merchant Alliance. Anyway, with my qualifications, even if I can break through the supernatural realm in fifty years, I will definitely not be able to go further. It is better to create a path to the sky for future generations now."
After the third person, this open-minded man, spoke, other soul-forging monks seemed to have found a reason to convince themselves and came forward one after another. In an instant, there were already thirty-six people.
Emperor Shenxuan has not emerged for millions of years. Those emperors from millions of years ago are still trapped in the imperial cage. The strongest person who can walk in China now is only half-step Shenxuan.
No one thought that they could go one step further and become an emperor. The realm of magical powers was the final pinnacle. The only difference was that one still had a slim hope of becoming an emperor, while the other was completely cut off.
After being enlightened by these words, more and more monks who weighed their own lack of qualifications naturally came forward.
"Stop, just the thirty-six of you. If there are still some of you who want to give up the hope of going further and step into supernatural powers, you can prepare the elixir yourself after the business alliance is up and running, or wait for Liu Qi to give me the elixir and I will refine it.
Prepare the second batch of elixirs, but the promise I just made is only valid for thirty-six of them."
"I can help you gain supernatural powers and give you the ability to stand at the pinnacle of the land of China. Naturally, I also have the strength to punish you after you betray the merchant alliance. So don't think that no one can do anything to you if you break through to the magical power realm. Heaven and Earth
It’s very big, not just in this land of China, but there are also many capable people, and the level of magical power is definitely not the pinnacle!”
"dragon."
Ling Qingzhu handed a storage ring to He Wenlong and said: "You should have understood the affairs of the merchant alliance for such a long time in the merchant alliance. You distribute a pill to each of the thirty-six people, and then the affairs of the merchant alliance
Let you handle it for the time being until Liu Qi successfully breaks through."
Ling Qingzhu's words caused cold sweat to break out on He Wenlong's head, and his eyes seemed to be able to see Ling Qingzhu's always calm eyes through the mask.
It felt like those eyes had seen through all of my secrets and thoughts under their calmness. They just let it go because they didn't care and were fearless.
How powerful is this self-confidence?
He Wenlong couldn't help but feel an uneasy feeling in his heart, as if he was dancing on the tip of a knife.
It has to be said that Ling Qingzhu's attitude towards He Wenlong was very good during the year they got together, but it also brought a huge psychological shadow to He Wenlong.
"Everyone else will return to their duties. Next, the leader and deputy envoy of this alliance will temporarily take over the position of deputy leader. The first priority will still be to sell off the elixir needed to acquire me and gather the merchant alliance personnel to return to the headquarters. Wait for all the merchant alliance personnel to gather
After this is completed, the Merchant Alliance Headquarters will cut off all contact with the outside world and prepare fully for war. The time for the counterattack on Suzaku will not be announced until further notice." Ling Qingzhu gave the final order.
"Yes, I will obey the leader's orders!"
"Let's break up."
…
Although Ling Qingzhu had tried his best to help the thirty-six Soul Forging Realm guide their potential, it still took two days to complete.
At this time, it was less than two days before the Qunfang Banquet of Red Sleeves Jiaofang. I didn’t know if it would be too late to rush from Huangxin City to Tianhai County.
Using the teleportation array again to return to the courtyard of Huangxin City, the elemental stone used to maintain the teleportation array also extinguished the last bit of spiritual light.
Ling Qingzhu had no expression on her face as she took off her mask and cloak and put them back into the storage ring. She would not be able to improve her cultivation level until the business alliance officially opened again.
Two days later in the evening, Ling Qingzhu rushed to Tianhai County despite the heavy rain, but only when she arrived at Tianhai County did she realize that the Qunfang Banquet had already begun.
It is no longer a secret that Ling Xue is hiding in Red Sleeve Jiaofang under the pseudonym Su Lanlan. People who discuss it can be seen everywhere in restaurants.
Ling Qingzhu didn't stay long, packed some food and wine at Zuixian Tower and went directly to Hongxiu Jiaofang.
After Ju Yuan, Ling Qingzhu's magical power of shrinking to an inch became easier. The same energy consumption was dozens of times faster than before Ju Yuan.
Because he had left Hongxiu once before, Ling Qingzhu used the breathing technique to easily sneak into Hongxiu by following the original path.
Just strolling on the way to Ling Xue's room in the red sleeves, a very embarrassed-looking figure suddenly appeared in front of him.
It was only when he got closer that he could see clearly. This man's appearance was quite delicate and handsome, but his face was ruined by an extra scar. His figure was also in a messy and rotten state, and his white robe was stained red with blood.
"Hahaha, there is really no way out. There is a bright future and a bright future. The red sleeves are hidden so deeply. I didn't expect that you are hiding your stunning beauty, which is not inferior to the famous leader. Although I have gone through many twists and turns this time, it seems that
God is still on my side."
Ling Qingzhu did not use her vitality to block the rain falling on her body, and the other party could not sense the fluctuations of Ling Qingzhu's vitality. Moreover, she was in the Red Sleeve Workshop at this juncture, so she would naturally be regarded as a red sleeve woman by the other party.
"Who are you?"
Ling Qingzhu asked with a calm voice, interrupting the other party's crazy laughter.
"Hahaha, it doesn't matter if you don't know who I am now, you will know when I take you to experience the bliss of the world!"
"But! From now on, you can only call me husband!" Following a dirty word, the other party smiled lewdly and reached out to Ling Qingzhu to grab him.
"idiot."
These two plain words became the last words he heard in his life.
Ling Qingzhu didn't make any move, but the other party's movements stopped instantly, and his head slowly slipped from his neck as if because of the excessive movement.
For a moment, a stronger smell of blood filled the air, but it was quickly diluted by the rain.
