"Colorful sky-swallowing python. Interesting."
The attack was blocked. The Phantom let out an unexpected groan. Immediately, a strange gaze shot out. In a breath, he leaped out of the sky and approached Xiaomi Cai.
The speed of the phantom is extremely fast. Even Xiaomi Cai can't help but eclipse her beauty. Under the crisis, her delicate body suddenly becomes generous and colorful. Pieces of colorful snakes grow on the ice-clear skin, exposing her true body.
"Who is this person? He can actually force the sect leader's goddaughter to this point." Ling Xiao was shocked. You must know that in this year, no one has ever been able to force out the true form of Xiaomi Cai. But this person actually did it. .
And looking at this trend, even Xiaomi Cai's true form may not be his opponent.
"The Empire. When did we get such a master?"
call out.
Xiaomi Cai was threatened. Qin Shi, who had always been silent, finally took action. He stepped forward to protect Xiaomi Cai behind him.
Facing this phantom, he did not dare to be careless: "Shenzi Jue."
"Star Meteor Hegemonic Body Art."
The two magic gates were operating. The black eyes widened exaggeratedly. A complicated hand seal was pinched on the chest. A black sun shot at the approaching phantom: "Phantom Amaterasu."
Boom.
The explosion caused the surrounding clouds to disperse. Qin Shi said coldly: "Boss Yuan, Xiaomi Cai is my goddaughter. Isn't it a bit too unjust for you to treat your old friend's goddaughter like this?"
"Haha. Have you been recognized?" Phantom floated in the air. His palm was stabbed by the black sun just now. He couldn't help but admired: "Is this the original seventh-level martial arts? The power is indeed powerful."
After speaking, the Phantom took off his bamboo hat, revealing his middle-aged face. It was not difficult to see from his serious expression that he had an extraordinary aura all over his body.
"Sure enough, it's you." Qin Shi narrowed his eyes as he stared at the middle-aged man. He was not unfamiliar with this person. On the contrary, he was very familiar with it. After all, in the Chi Yan Empire, there was only one person he could keep in mind. The number of slaps. And the person in front of me counts as one.
"Sect Master, do you know him?" Ling Xiao asked curiously.
Qin Shi nodded with a chuckle. Qin Shi said, "Well, you should also know that this person's reputation in the empire is comparable to that of Hua Ling."
"What? Can you compete with Hua Ling?" The elders of the Qin Sect clicked their tongues. Hua Ling was once the number one in Chi Yan. Who can compete with Hua Ling
"Who is this person?"
"The boss of Wumen Auction House. Yuan Bo, Boss Yuan." Qin Shi revealed the identity of the middle-aged man. Ling Xiao and others suddenly realized and looked at Yuan Bo with strange eyes.
Everyone knows Wumen Auction House. It is the largest auction in the Chiyan Empire. It is located in every corner of the east, west, north, south and the imperial city. Moreover, Wumen Auction House has a huge network of people. I think I could see it when I was in Liancheng. Come out. The only one who is not afraid of Xuandian in the eastern region is Wumen Auction House.
Qin Shi scanned Yuan Bo up and down. He was slightly shocked. He clearly remembered that the last time he saw Yuan Bo, Yuan Bo was only on the first level of the Heaven Realm. Now he has reached the top of the Three Days. And vaguely. It kind of means breaking through the four-day realm.
"Haha. Boss Yuan. I haven't seen you for a few months. It seems that you are in full glory. No wonder the outside world's comments about you are full of mystery." Qin Shi broke the silence.
"What are you talking about? Compared with Sect Master Qin, I am far behind. In just half a year, Sect Master Qin replaced Hua Ling. It has almost become a legend of the empire." Yuan Bo shook his head humbly.
Staring at Yuan Bo, he brought an ultimate sense of oppression to Qin Shi. This sense of oppression did not come from his cultivation, but from his own aura: "Boss Yuan, you should not be following your younger brother for so long. I guess it’s just to brag about my little brother.”
"Haha. I really can't hide anything from Sect Master Qin." Yuan Bo undeniably spread his hands: "I came to see Sect Master Qin this time, but I have something I want to discuss."
"What's the matter? Boss Yuan just say it. Don't call me master. We are all friends. Boss Yuan also helped me, didn't he?" Qin Shi said politely.
"Haha. I guess you have some conscience." Boss Yuan nodded with satisfaction: "Actually, it's not a big deal that I come to you. I just want to talk to you about cooperation."
"Cooperation." Qin Shi became interested: "What kind of cooperation method?"
"You also know that my Wumen Auction House has always been neutral in the Chiyan Empire. But that is because the Chiyan Empire is divided into five forces. I am a businessman who has no profit and cannot afford to be early. I don't want to be involved in the sect. In the midst of war, but things are different now. You, Qin Zong, dominate the empire now. Xuandian and the royal family are all allies with you. Of course I have to find a way to climb on your high branches and seek shelter." Yuan Bo flattered road.
I don't know why. Qin Shi always felt weird when listening to Yuan Bo's flattery. But his eyes lingered on Yuan Bo's face for a long time, but he couldn't see any clues. He could only smile and said: "Brother, you are like this Aren't we still friends? Qin Zong and Wumen Auction House have always been friends and allies."
Yuan Bo was stunned for a moment, then said happily: "That's natural. But I think our relationship can go further, isn't it?"
"Go further." Qin Shi frowned.
"Yes. The Qin Sect is now in charge of the three major regions: southwest, north, southwest, and most of the eastern region. But I heard that the current Qin Sect never seems to have its own industry. It still relies on the original foundation and your personal contribution to maintain it. .I think with your ability as a soul spell magician, there should be no problem in maintaining a sect. But you also need to know that this is not a long-term solution. I think with your character, you won't be able to stay here for long. Come on. What will happen to Qin Zong when that time comes?" Yuan Bo's words were shocking. Ling Xiao and the others beside him became serious.
Yuan Bo is right. This has always been Qin Zong's lameness. When he was in the northern region, he said that Qin Zong didn't need any property. A sect in a third-level city. Qin Shi earned money by wandering outside. The wealth is enough to supply more than a hundred years. But it is different now. Qin Zong is the largest force in Chi Yan. The daily consumption is calculated in tens of millions. It is extremely huge.
Moreover, even if he can continue to supply, it will not be permanent. He needs Qin Zong to invest some in the early stage. It is natural, but it is not an endless investment. Otherwise, Qin Zong will not be able to be his backing, but will become a burden to him.
Qin Shi had already thought about what Yuan Bo said, so he recruited He Yan and the people from the Alchemist Association. However, there are no rules. The income of these people alone still makes ends meet.
It is precisely because of this that Qin Shi is extremely busy these days. He originally wanted to leave the empire and go out to explore. It is precisely because of this that he is trapped in Qin Zong and cannot escape.
"Boss Yuan, what do you mean?" Qin Shi said.
"Haha. It's very simple. The cooperation between Qin Zong and Wumen Auction is a commercial cooperation. Qin Zong is the largest sect. One side can protect us. The other side should also have many rare treasures. In this way, as long as everyone behaves well Do it. I think it must be a very considerable fortune. Brother Qin, what do you think?" Yuan Bo expressed what he was thinking.
Upon hearing this, the eyes of Ling Xiao and others lit up.
"Sect Master, this can be done. Wumen Auction holds thousands of auctions every year, large and small. Each one has extremely considerable benefits. If we can unite with them, Qin Sect's financial problems will no longer have to worry about. Already." Ling Xiao said excitedly.
Qin Shi considered it alone for a while and did not respond in a hurry.
Logically speaking, cooperation is definitely beneficial to Qin Zong. However, Qin Shi can't figure it out. With the current situation of Wumen Auction House, there is no need to partner with outsiders. In the business circle, even Qin Zong cannot shake it. .Why did Boss Yuan give up such a big cup of soup for Qin Zong to take a bite
Could it be that you are really seeking asylum
No. Qin Shi was sure that there was absolutely no such possibility.
"Brother, what do you think?" Yuan Bo asked again.
Qin Shi couldn't figure it out. He had to collect his thoughts. No matter what the reason was, it would at least be beneficial to Qin Zong. He nodded and agreed: "In that case, thank you Boss Yuan. I will arrange relevant disciples to go to Wumen in the next few days. We’ll have a visit with the auction house. We’ll discuss it in detail at that time.”
Yuan Bo laughed happily: "Okay. Then I hope we can have a happy cooperation. I will welcome the people of Qin Zong at Wumen Auction House."
“A pleasure to work with.”
The cooperation was finalized. Qin Shi didn't waste any time and rushed back to the imperial city directly.
As soon as he entered the imperial city, Qin Shi's mental power spread out. After making sure that no one was following him, he said to Ling Xiao: "Elder Ling Xiao, help me investigate the Wumen Auction House in the past few days. I want to know about Wumen The background of the auction house and the identity of Yuan Bo."
"Well, Sect Master, you think there is something wrong with him."
"I can't tell you the problem. But he gave me a very different feeling. Just now, I saw a sense of strategizing in his eyes. It seemed that he had predicted everything, including the financial situation of my Qin Zong. This all-in-one person Nothing can be hidden from him." Qin Shi said solemnly.
Ling Xiao felt surprised from the side. Qin Shi hadn't shown such a look for a long time since the end of the First World War in the Empire. He couldn't help but solemnly agreed: "Okay. I will send someone to investigate in the next few days."
"Well, remember to be careful. Don't let him find out. After all, we are partners now. After a while, the sect will stabilize. I think you will leave. At that time, Qin Sect's financial problems will still depend on him." Qin Shi Just a reminder. Don’t talk too much nonsense.
It's time to return to the imperial city.
Qin Shi, Ling Xiao and others said goodbye and hurried back to the Imperial Garden.
He promised Jade Rakshasa to come back before tonight.
However, when he returned to the Royal Garden, the Jade Rakshasa was not here. This made him suddenly worried: "Did something happen to Rakshasa?"
Thinking of this, he immediately shook his head: "Impossible. This is the empire. My parents, grandpa, Xiao Yuzi and Concubine Lin are all here. Nothing will happen."
But at this moment, he suddenly frowned. A figure broke into his investigation range.
"Get off here."
Locking on the figure, he turned the palm of his hand and a golden chain of spiritual power thrust out towards the sky, binding the figure in one fell swoop.
boom.
This figure was a young man. He didn't even have a chance to react. As soon as he was bound by the golden chain, he was pulled down by Qin Shi and fell to the ground.
"Say, you came here late at night. Who are you?" Qin Shi said harshly because of the Jade Rakshasa incident.
"Qin. Sect Master Qin, don't do anything. I am one of Concubine Lin's people." The young man was frightened. He backed away and trembled: "Concubine Lin. Concubine Lin asked me to come to you. I want you to follow me back to the palace as soon as possible. One trip.”
"Why is Concubine Lin looking for me so late?" Qin Shi always remained vigilant. However, the young man's next words made all his defenses collapse.
"Euphemistically. Euphemistically, the princess is happy."
