Chapter 3515 Prepare a Generous Gift

Shen Changqing is gone.

After handing the fragment of the immortal sword to Fu Tian, ​​he returned to the Xuan Tian Dao Sect to go into seclusion in order to comprehend the final half-step of the path.

the other side.

The All-Heavens Merchant Guild, having obtained this treasure, also publicized it extensively.

A short time.

This attracted the attention of many cultivators.

no way.

A treasure destroyed by the calamity of the innate imperial weapon, even if it cannot compare to a real innate imperial weapon, is still more powerful than many imperial immortal artifacts.

after all--

The profound significance of such treasures is evident here.

Even a single fragment possesses considerable power.

For top-tier Immortal Emperors or even half-saint level powerhouses, such fragments are of little significance.

But for ordinary Celestial Emperors...

That's different.

and so.

When news of the Zhutian Chamber of Commerce spread, the number of powerful figures in Nanming Immortal City increased significantly. When other chambers of commerce learned of this news, they all turned their attention to the Zhutian Chamber of Commerce.

"Has the origin of the All-Heavens Merchant Guild not been clarified yet?"

Inside Tianyun Pavilion, Qian Buyi frowned, his expression displeased.

The All-Heavens Merchant Guild appeared out of nowhere and quickly established a strong foothold in Nanming Immortal City.

That’s all.

As a major power in Shenfeng Prefecture, Tianyun Pavilion, with its branches occupying most of the Immortal Prefecture, naturally wouldn't take a mere Zhutian Chamber of Commerce seriously.

After all, with the foundation of Tianyun Pavilion, apart from a merchant guild of the same level as Tongtian Pavilion that is hard to match, there are actually very few other merchant guilds that can truly command the attention of the former.

Zhutian Chamber of Commerce.

This is not included here.

But now that news has spread that the All Heavens Merchant Guild has a fragment of a half-step Innate Emperor Weapon, things are different.

It's not that these precious fragments are so important, but rather the meaning they contain.

after all--

Qian Buyi already knew that the treasure that was destroyed during his tribulation not long ago was made by the Xuantian Dao Sect.

The fact that this precious treasure fragment is now in the hands of the All-Heavens Merchant Guild is something to ponder.

To know.

Prior to this, Tianyun Pavilion had always cooperated with Xuantian Dao Sect.

Now that the Xuantian Dao Sect has not handed over such a treasure to the Tianyun Pavilion for disposal, but instead given it to the Zhutian Chamber of Commerce, how could Qian Buyi not feel threatened?

After all.

He was merely a manager of a branch office.

If the Zhutian Chamber of Commerce is backed by the Xuantian Dao Sect, then things will be different.

Qian Buyi was well aware that the Tianyun Pavilion in the Divine Heaven Domain was able to grow so large because it was inextricably linked to the Xuantian Dao Sect, and he, as the manager of the branch pavilion, also benefited from it.

If the Xuantian Dao Sect abandons the Tianyun Pavilion and instead supports the Zhutian Chamber of Commerce, things will get complicated.

But it's difficult for Qian Buyi to personally visit and inquire about these things.

Shen Changqing's current status is not something a mere manager of Tianyun Pavilion can question; a misstep could damage the relationship between the two parties.

and so.

Money is scarce right now, so I can only secretly search for information about the All-Heavens Merchant Guild.

As he finished speaking, the Tianyun Pavilion cultivator in front of him respectfully replied.

"The origins of the All-Heavens Merchant Guild are mysterious, but as far as I know, this guild originated from the Heavenly Star Domain, and then gradually established itself in other Immortal Domains in less than one or two hundred thousand years."

The origin of the Pavilion Master of the Heavenly Realms is even more mysterious; all that is known is that he is a Celestial Emperor.

But further details remain unknown!

"Some forces once secretly captured cultivators from the Zhutian Chamber of Commerce in an attempt to learn their secrets, but many of the middle-level members of the Zhutian Chamber of Commerce only had a superficial understanding of the Chamber's core secrets."

The chamber of commerce's top brass, however, remained utterly loyal, and no amount of interrogation could sway them!

Upon hearing the other party's words, Qian Buyi's expression immediately changed.

Celestial Star Domain!
this moment.

All of Qian Buyi's suspicions were confirmed.

He was almost 100% certain that the Zhutian Chamber of Commerce was definitely related to the Xuantian Dao Sect, or rather, related to the sect master of the Xuantian Dao Sect.

After all, that person was originally the Heavenly Demon Saint Lord and is now the Sect Master of the Xuantian Dao Sect. The Zhutian Chamber of Commerce originated from the Tianxing Domain, so it's impossible for things to have so many coincidences.

Some times.

There are too many coincidences.

This became inevitable.

"Abandon all actions against the All-Heavens Merchant Guild; do not provoke this force for the time being!"

Qian Buyi said in a deep voice.

Since it is clear that this is related to Shen Changqing, then the Zhutian Chamber of Commerce is not to be touched.

After all, the current Divine Heaven Domain is dominated by the Xuan Tian Dao Sect, and anyone who dares to oppose it is just asking for trouble.

Despite the immense power of Tianyun Pavilion, it's impossible for them to break ties with Xuantian Daozong just for the sake of managing a small branch.

If the latter were just an ordinary force, that would be fine.

However, the Xuantian Dao Sect is currently at its zenith, and its sect leader is a being comparable to the immortal.

As a mere steward of an ancient immortal realm, his death was no big deal; Tianyun Pavilion would never openly break ties with him.

Currently, the Xuantian Dao Sect is supporting the Zhutian Chamber of Commerce, which will have an impact on the Tianyun Pavilion, but the latter will ultimately be able to survive.

At this time.

Money is hard to come by, so it's easy to understand what's more important.

not only that.

He looked at the person in front of him, and then said, "Also, prepare a generous gift to send to the All-Heavens Merchant Guild to show goodwill, and make sure there is no conflict with them!"

"Yes--"

……

Tianyun Pavilion acted swiftly.

Looking at the things sent by Tianyun Pavilion, Fu Tian immediately understood.

He understands.

Tianyun Pavilion wouldn't show goodwill without a reason; there's a reason behind it.

Considering the actions of the Zhutian Chamber of Commerce in the past few days, how could Futian not understand the key point?

Clearly, the other party had guessed the background of the Zhutian Chamber of Commerce. Their current actions were less aimed at the Zhutian Chamber of Commerce and more at the Xuantian Dao Sect.

but.

Fu Tian ignored the matter.

Now that Shen Changqing has assigned him a task, he must do his best to complete it in order to demonstrate the role of the Zhutian Chamber of Commerce.

The All-Heavens Commerce Guild has been established for over a million years, and that person has made very few demands on it.

It's not easy to get a chance to serve now, so Fu Tian naturally doesn't want to miss it.

one year later.

The All-Heavens Merchant Guild held an auction, and because it contained a fragment of a half-step Innate Emperor Weapon, the auction was an unprecedented success.

Many cultivators came upon hearing the news, and powerful figures from other immortal realms also flocked to the scene.

to this end.

Fu Tian had no choice but to appear in person to oversee the situation.

After all, the commotion caused by the half-step innate imperial weapon fragment was quite significant, and it would be difficult to suppress the situation without sufficient power.

As the only Immortal Emperor in the All-Heavens Merchant Guild, Fu Tian naturally had to step forward to take charge of the overall situation.

When a Celestial Emperor appeared, the previously noisy and chaotic scene instantly quieted down.

not only that.

Some observant people noticed that an elder from the Xuantian Dao Sect had arrived, seemingly to support the Zhutian Chamber of Commerce.

This scene.

This immediately dispelled any improper thoughts that might have been harbored by many cultivators.

"People from the Xuantian Dao Sect have also arrived. Could it be that the Zhutian Chamber of Commerce is really related to this force?"

"It's said that the All-Heavens Merchant Guild originated from the Celestial Star Domain; perhaps there really is a connection—"

As early as after the All Heavens Merchant Guild revealed the news of the half-step innate imperial weapon fragment, many cultivators had made some speculations about it.

They even secretly investigated the foundation of the Zhutian Chamber of Commerce.

Despite the limited information available.

However, since this force originated from the Tianxing Domain, and now has a half-step innate imperial weapon fragment, many seemingly unrelated pieces of information are connected, and many questions are suddenly answered.

now.

The appearance of an elder from the Xuantian Dao Sect can be seen as a gesture of support.

Anyone with a modicum of common sense can understand the relationship between the two major powers.

Although the elder from the Xuantian Dao Sect who came this time was only an ancient immortal cultivator, no one dared to underestimate him.

An ancient immortal doesn't need anything.

However, the power behind this ancient immortal cannot be ignored.

Having grasped the key point, the other cultivators no longer dared to underestimate the All-Heavens Merchant Guild.

This way.

The auction went smoothly.

The auction proceeded smoothly from beginning to end without any disruptions.

Once the auction ended, some of the powerful individuals who obtained the treasures left Nanming Immortal City without stopping for a moment.

But after a while.

A powerful aura then erupted in the void.

"Leave behind a fragment of a half-step Innate Emperor Weapon!"

"Hmph, you dare to steal what belongs to this Emperor? You're courting death!"

A series of angry shouts rang out, and a terrifying power swept across the heavens and the earth, but it did not affect Nanming Immortal City at all.

"Elder, should we intervene to stop them?"

Inside the Southern Bright Immortal City, a cultivator from the Xuantian Dao Sect stood behind a person and respectfully asked.

Gu Mingfeng shook his head slightly: "No need to pay attention to them. Let them fight if they want, as long as it doesn't affect our Nanming Immortal City."

After all, such battles between cultivators are inherently difficult to prevent, and forcibly suppressing them would inevitably backfire!

After breaking through to the Immortal Emperor realm, Gu Mingfeng was responsible for guarding the Southern Ming Immortal City.

He had no intention of interfering in the struggles between other Immortal Emperors.

Fight for opportunities.

They are commonplace in the Nine Heavens Celestial Realm.

It's impossible to completely eliminate such things, even if you try to stop them.

What's more.

The fact that these powerful figures did not make a move within Nanming Immortal City was a sign of respect for the Xuantian Dao Sect, a fact that Gu Mingfeng understood perfectly.

Since the other party has given face to the Xuantian Dao Sect, he cannot possibly refuse to give them face in return.

However, the main reason is that the other party did not affect Nanming Immortal City or harm the interests of Xuantian Dao Sect.

If these cultivators want to fight, then let them fight.

The battle started quickly and ended just as quickly.

As the illusory image of the Immortal Emperor fell, signifying the fall of an Immortal Emperor, all commotion vanished without a trace.

With a flick of his sleeve, Gu Mingfeng released a fragment of the universe into his palm.

This item also held significant meaning for him.

……

a few days later.

Fu Tian ascended to the Xuan Tian Dao Sect to meet Shen Changqing.

He did not hide his identity.

After all that had happened, the relationship between the Zhutian Chamber of Commerce and Shen Changqing could no longer be hidden, so there was no need to continue to conceal it.

Yangxinju (养心居) is located within the residence.

Shen Changqing looked at the person who had arrived and asked, "Has everything been taken care of?"

"As Your Majesty requested, all the proceeds from the auction of that treasure fragment are here. Please take a look!"

As Fu Tian spoke, he handed a storage ring to Shen Changqing. The latter scanned it with his divine sense and saw everything inside the storage ring.
