Peerless War God

As the two of them went deeper and deeper, Chen Xiao found that the surrounding Spiritual Qi seemed to become more and more abundant. It was as if he was in an ocean of Spiritual Qi. Even a simple breath of air could make him feel that the Spiritual Qi was amazing.    

"What a shocking spiritual Qi." Chen Xiao said in surprise.    

The maid smiled and said, "Of course. This is the core of our Treasure Seizing Tower. There is a huge spirit gathering formation here. It is the best place to cultivate in the secret chamber and also the cultivation room of the Tower Master."    

"So that's how it is, Miss..."    

"Elder Chen can call me Hong Luan, but I don't deserve to be called Miss. If the Tower Master finds out, he will definitely break my legs." Hong Luan lightly smiled and joked.    

Chen Xiao smiled faintly and didn't say anything else.    

He could also tell that although the four girls seemed to be Senior Sister Huo Yuan's maids, they actually had an extraordinary background and weren't simple maids.    

Since he had just arrived, it was better for him not to provoke them. In addition, he already had a family. If he didn't attract unnecessary trouble, things wouldn't be good.    

Soon, under the lead of Hong Luan, the two of them arrived at the lowest floor of the Treasure Tower, which was the secret chamber.    

"Elder Chen, it's here. If you need anything, just send a voice transmission," Hong Luan said indifferently.    

"Okay."    

Chen Xiao took a deep breath and entered the secret chamber.    

With a thought, the door of the secret chamber fell down automatically, completely isolating him from the outside world.    

In this medium-sized secret chamber, there were all kinds of mystical blue runes. From time to time, they flickered, and visible spiritual energy filled the entire secret chamber. It was so dense that it seemed as if it would turn into water.    

Apart from that, the walls and the surroundings of the secret chamber were actually piled up with a piece of immortal jade. It was incomparably gorgeous. Chen Xiao was stunned when he took a look at it.    

"It's so luxurious. No wonder it's called the Redbud Merchant Guild. It's really rich." Chen Xiao couldn't help but say.    

With this, the problem of him lacking immortal jades was solved. He didn't have to worry about it at all.    

That's good as well. With this, he wouldn't have to worry about anything for the time being, and he could focus on healing his injuries.    

At this moment, Chen Xiao didn't delay any longer. He first briefly inspected the secret chamber, and after confirming that everything was normal, he sat down in the center of the secret chamber, meditated, and recuperated while refining the Flaming Yuan Pill with all his might.    

He had a feeling that as long as he refined this pill, not only would his injuries fully recover, it might even advance a step further.    

On the other side, on the roof of the multi-treasure building, in the inner chambers of the Tower Master.    

"Reporting to the House Master, the news has already been passed through the secret channels of the Chamber of Commerce. It should be sent to the headquarters in two days." Green Lotus said respectfully.    

"Good, it's been hard on you. Has there been any progress with the merchant ship being destroyed?" Huo Yuan didn't even open his eyes. He asked while carefully adjusting his breathing.    

It was obvious that she had spent a lot of effort helping Chen Xiao refine the Flaming Yuan Pill just now.    

Qing Lian paused for a moment and said, "According to the information we have, it was a group of evil cultivators from Yama Island who robbed the merchant ship and killed all of them. It's a great loss to the chamber of commerce."    

The Endless Sea was very large, and there were many merchant ships and cultivator groups that came and went. There were also many merchants who earned a lot of money by relying on this sea road, and the Redbud Merchant Association was the biggest one.    

All along, they had been peaceful.    

However, since the war between the two forces, this trade route had basically been cut off, and less than a tenth of the people who could travel with them had been able to travel with them.    

In this way, it had caused the price of a large number of cultivation materials and resources in White Stone City to skyrocket.    

Under the temptation of huge profits, there would naturally be people willing to take risks. Even if there was a certain degree of danger to their lives, they would not hesitate to do so.    

However, this time, it was a failure. Even their lives were lost with the merchant ships.    

If the Violet Thistle Merchant Guild didn't find the true murderer of this matter and give an explanation to everyone, then their reputation would fall by a thousand feet, and it would be extremely disadvantageous.    

To a trading company, reputation was more important than their lives. Once it was ruined, no one would believe you and be willing to do business with you. So, this matter was extremely important to Huo Yuan.    

Because of this, she even sent Su Mo to personally investigate it.    

"Yama Island? Heh, one of the three great evil cultivator powers in the outer seas. It sounds pretty scary. Blue Lotus, do you believe me?" Huo Yuan laughed coldly. His eyes were ice-cold as killing intent surged within them.    

"This..."    

Green Lotus didn't know how to answer.    

The reputation of Yama Island was actually quite great. It could be said that it had a fierce reputation outside. It could be said that it was an existence that could deter a region, an existence that could stop a child from crying at night.    

It was also known as one of the three great evil cultivation forces, along with the Blood Butcher and the Corpse Ghost Sect. It had always been in the limelight.    

Especially recently, the entire West Sea had been in turmoil, causing the evil cultivators to become even more arrogant.    

However, no matter how powerful they were, they were nothing compared to the Redbud Merchant Guild. It was like the difference between an adult and a baby.    

"A mere Yama Island dares to rob merchant ships, and even kill everyone. Destroying corpses and wiping out evidence is just too bold. If no one is backing them up... Even if the Yama Island's evil cultivators were given a hundred guts, they wouldn't dare to do so. " Huo Yuan said coldly.    

Hearing this, Green Lotus was shocked.    

"Tower Lord, could it be that the people of Cloud Sky Pavilion are supporting Yama Island behind their backs? This... Cloud Sky Pavilion really dares to collude with evil cultivators. If this matter were to spread out... That would be extremely detrimental to Cloud Sky Pavilion." Green Lotus asked in puzzlement.    

Huo Yuan slowly opened his almond eyes. A cold light flashed and he said, "The people of the Cloud Sky Pavilion have always been unscrupulous. There is nothing they can't do. Besides, reputation isn't that important. As long as they can win in the end... No one cares how many evil things you have done, even if you are associated with evil cultivators. So what? "    

"Tower Lord is right." Green Lotus said.    

In her impression, Cloud Sky Pavilion was indeed such a group of people. In order to win, they would do anything.    

"Then what should we do? If that's the case, wouldn't it be very difficult to deal with them?" Green Lotus said with some worry.    

The three great evil cultivation powers had been entrenched in the outer seas, and it had always been difficult to eradicate them. It was truly because they were too crafty, hiding their heads and revealing their tails.    

To the Redbud Merchant Guild, this was a huge problem.    

When she thought up to here, Huo Yuan's brows tightened as he said, "There's no hurry. Let's make a long plan. It won't be too late to make plans after Elder Su returns from his investigation. Go and give the order that all the merchant ships have been stopped. Don't go out to sea again to avoid any accidents. "    

"Yes," Green Lotus replied. Her expression changed slightly as she said, "Tower Lord, it's just that this way, the price of the pills and spiritual artifacts we're selling will rise dramatically."    

Huo Yuan thought for a moment and said, "It's fine to increase the price, but the families that fought with us in the past, such as the Yang Family, can give us a discount."
