Chapter 487: Chapter 15: Jinhua Commerce Association
Although the Ancient Demon Scripture failed to gain the favor of the Fierce Tiger Commerce Association, it is still a rare treasure.
It was quite presumptuous for someone to ask for it so casually.
If it were someone else, a conflict would be inevitable.
However, the one who asked was Liu Qingyun, which brought Wu Yehua joy.
On the one hand, it further proved that Liu Qingyun was not an undercover from any other commerce association in the Ten Thousand Merchants Domain. After all, someone who has lived and cultivated for years in the Ten Thousand Merchants Domain would not behave like this. If they valued something, they would negotiate through trade rather than asking for it.
On the other hand, it also gave him leverage over the other party.
"Brother Liu is interested in this Demon Scripture?"
Li Ji’an looked at him ambiguously: "Are you unwilling?"
"No, no, Brother Liu misunderstood. Brother Liu saved my life, and I have yet to repay it. How could I be unwilling? However, this Demon Scripture is a heritage from my mother’s family and is no ordinary text.
In terms of value alone, it cannot be measured in Spirit Stones. I’ve already promised a reward of 150,000 Spirit Stones, but if Brother Liu still wants to observe this Demon Scripture, could you agree to a small request of mine?" Wu Yehua deliberated.
"Speak!"
"I dare to request that Brother Liu join my household, becoming a First Grade Guest and enjoying the Tier Three Spirit Vein Dao Field of my Jinhua Commerce Association, supported by our association." Wu Yehua earnestly invited.
Li Ji’an slightly raised his eyebrows, laughing inwardly.
His straightforward asking was to offer Wu Yehua a bargaining chip, making it easier for him to attract him.
During the spirit contract signing with the Fierce Tiger Commerce Association, he used his identity with the Jinhua Commerce Association to pave the way for Gugu’s use of the Green Blood Pill to breach Tier Three in half a year. This identity must be reasonably maintained for six months.
And maintaining an indifferent demeanor towards Wu Yehua wouldn’t allow him to join actively; it would only raise suspicion.
"What grade of Spirit Vein does your association have? What are the constraints? What is required of me?"
"Brother Liu, rest assured. The highest Tier Three Middle Grade Spirit Vein in our association, where my Dao Field is, also has a Tier Three Lower Grade with enough spiritual energy for your cultivation to Core Formation, primarily with Wood Attribute Spiritual Qi." Wu Yehua was delighted. Once the other party opened their mouth, everything was negotiable.
"As for the constraints and costs... Brother Liu, as my lifesaver, everything will be simplified."
Li Ji’an stared at him for a moment: "When can I view the Demon Scripture?"
"Brother Liu, rest assured. As soon as the guest spirit contract is signed, you can view it anytime." Wu Yehua readily agreed.
After a moment of silence, Li Ji’an looked toward the direction of the Celestial Cyan Domain: "Very well, then obedience is better than politeness."
"Good, good, good. Brother Liu, please." Wu Yehua was elated, inviting Li Ji’an to the Immortal Pool for a celebration.
Half a month later, Wu Yehua received another urging from the commerce association, ordering him to return immediately.
Meanwhile, two True Pill tributes from the headquarters had already arrived at Tiger Roar Immortal City to escort Wu Yehua back.
This shows that Wu Yehua, the fifth young master, still held some weight in his commerce association father’s heart.
With the protection of two True Pill experts, he was almost worry-free in the Ten Thousand Merchants Domain.
"Young master, the elder of Taixiao Sect in the Profound Sky Domain requests to see you, seeking to purchase the usage right for the Green Blood Pill." That day, just as they were preparing to depart, the steward entered to report again.
Wu Yehua’s face darkened immediately, glaring at the steward in front of him with aversion: "I have said many times that the Green Blood Pill is not mine; it was taken by that wench Bai Cailin. Stop bothering me!"
Since the competition for the Green Blood Pill ended, Wu Yehua originally dispelled his frustration over the competition failure due to Liu Qingyun’s pulling together, but from the next day on, people came one after another to trade for the Green Blood Pill.
Some did not meet the conditions for competition set by the Fierce Tiger Commerce Association at the time, while others could not provide the Spiritual Talent the association required, wanting to try the requirements of the Jinhua Commerce Association.
However, unlike the first competition at the Fierce Tiger Commerce Association, this time it was all for their Spirit Beasts to reach Tier Three.
During the Fierce Tiger Commerce Association competition, some commerce associations’ competitive purpose might have been to flip it again, anyway, the Fierce Tiger Commerce Association made it clear that as long as you provide the required Spiritual Talent and sign a spirit contract, you can set a time, and by then, no matter what Spirit Beast the buyer brings, it’s acceptable.
"Hmph! That wench Bai Cailin deliberately disgusts me, spreading rumors that I acquired the Green Blood Pill!" With each purchaser, Wu Yehua recalled the failure and depression of the Green Blood Pill competition again.
"Young master, the old man has announced it according to your request, but that Fairy Bai is willing to swear a Great Heart Demon Oath, insisting you made the successful transaction." The steward replied apprehensively.
Wu Yehua frowned deeply, unable to understand Bai Cailin’s intentions.
What good does it do her?
Simply to make me attract attention for her?
"Forget it, as I’ll be departing soon, do not bother about it anymore, and don’t hassle me with this matter." Wu Yehua waved his hand, sending the steward away.
As he watched the steward leave, Wu Yehua’s eyes grew cold. He then turned to Li Ji’an and said: "Brother Liu, this old fox is untrustworthy. Previously, to avoid my whereabouts being known to the Si Shui Commerce Association, only this old fox knew before departure, and then, I encountered assassins from Yellow Springs Prison.
I have reason to suspect he passed the information to my second brother.
When we return to Golden Radiance Immortal City, you need to be cautious."
Li Ji’an nodded slightly.
At this moment, a vibration was heard from the Communication Talisman in Wu Yehua’s bosom.
He directly took out the Communication Talisman, without avoiding Li Ji’an.
"It’s her!" Wu Yehua revealed a trace of surprise after reading the Communication Talisman.
The content of the Communication Talisman, which Li Ji’an became aware of, also made his heart slightly move.
