Chapter 1273 - Accident



Chapter 1273: Accident

The Ancient Demons’ blood essences were still rare items in the Great Wide World, and they were not cheap. It was not possible for Ou Yangming to take out those spirit coins at once.

By helping Xu Hu heal his injuries, he offset the required spirit coins for the Glorious Treasures Chamber of Commerce. This was a deal of equivalent value. Nonetheless, the spirit coins for the other chambers of commerce could not be less. It was a different matter. The young fellow would not use coercion to make them all take responsibility for him.

He still had 2 Juque Swords. They were the weapons of the Nine-sworded Ruler, and they were Low Grade Taoist Tools.

To Ou Yangming, a Low Grade Taoist Tool was no longer a big deal. As long as he found the right materials, he could easily smith Taoist Tools.

The Juque Swords were of no use to Ou Yangming but to others, they were priceless treasures. Not everyone in the Great Wide World had the right to own a Taoist Tool.

Using one to exchange for the Ancient Demons’ blood essences was undoubtedly the best choice.

Ou Yangming planned to stay here for 3 days, so he asked the people of the Glorious Treasures Chamber of Commerce to prepare a place for him to rest.

There were many chambers of commerce in the Zhenwu Continent. If Ou Yangming were to travel from one house to another, it would be inefficient. Therefore, he might as well hand the matter over to the people of the Glorious Treasures Chamber of Commerce.

They had recognized him and knew his strength. Therefore, they would not dare to slack off.

Xu Hu’s body was weak, so Ou Yangming did not ask him to send him off. Steward Mu brought him to a luxurious room on the fifth floor.

Steward Mu stopped and said respectfully, “This is the place that the Glorious Treasures Chamber of Commerce uses to entertain our most precious guests. No one has ever lived here before. It’s a bit shabby but please don’t take offense, sir.”

When the door was pushed, a magnificent world with glass and pearls hanging on the roof could be seen.

The furnishings in the room were all the most precious and gorgeous things. The floor was covered with the fur of a Ruler-level Starry Sky Beast. It was very soft when stepped on.

A pleasant fragrance came from the air.

Steward Mu said it simply, but he was just being modest. If this place was simple, Ou Yangming’s Yangming Villa in Starlight City could only be described as a beggar’s residence.

“Sir, I’ll take my leave first. I’ll immediately call a few maids to wait outside. If you need anything, just tell them directly.”

After Steward Mu sent Ou Yangming to this place, he immediately took his leave.

3 days was not a short time, but it was still very difficult to transport all the Ancient Demons’ blood essences from all the branches here. Not only that, but they also needed to help Ou Yangming purchase the blood essences from other chambers of commerce. All of this required time.

“Go.” Ou Yangming knew what he was thinking and waved his hand.

Only then did Steward Mu take his leave.

Ou Yangming walked to the side of the window and looked at the distant sky with a hint of melancholy in his eyes.

The danger of the Great Wide World was getting closer. Ou Yangming had a strong premonition in his heart. The other existences of the third step would be able to sense this as well.

Those conferred Rulers were most likely unwilling to accept the challenge of Ruler Ying because of this. After all, at this critical juncture, maintaining one’s full strength was the most important thing.

If one were to be seriously injured in a battle, it was not something that could be recovered overnight. If a crisis suddenly appeared, the consequences would be very serious.

“I wonder how the Northern Blade Sect is doing.”

Ou Yangming thought of Yang Liu, who had left Starlight City to contact the other Ruler of the third step to deal with Ruler Ying together. At that time, the name Ruler Ming had not spread here yet. Ruler Ying did not know Ou Yangming was also in the third step.

On the second floor.

Steward Mu walked down quickly and came to Xu Hu’s side, supporting him.

“Great Elder, I’ve settled him down.”

“Okay.” Xu Hu nodded. His eyes were filled with the desire for life. He said, “Steward Mu, give my order. Immediately notify all the branches to send all the Ancient Demons’ blood essences over. Send as many as you have. If anyone dares to disobey…”

Xu Hu’s eyes were filled with a fierce look.

He had lost his strength, but his dignity still existed. Steward Mu’s heart skipped a beat as he understood the resolution in the great elder’s heart.

“Also,” Xu Hu continued, “Send a voice transmission to the president and tell him everything that happened today. Ask him to use the Glorious Treasures Chamber of Commerce’s treasury. No matter what price he has to pay, he must buy all the blood essences that can be seen on the market.”

“Yes, Great Elder.” Afterward, a hint of worry flashed in Steward Mu’s eyes.

“But if that’s the case, I’m afraid that the other chambers of commerce will raise the price.”

“No matter what, we have to buy them. Even if we have to sacrifice some benefits, there’s nothing wrong with us paying a little more.”

A glint of wisdom flashed in the great elder’s eyes.

He did not care whether the people around him understood or not. He looked at the Juque Sword on the table and sighed. Then, he said, “Tell the president that we got him a Taoist Tool as well.”

“Yes!” Steward Mu was delighted.

On the same day, the Glorious Treasures Chamber of Commerce began to operate.

Every branch received the urgent news and immediately sent all the Ancient Demons’ blood essences to their headquarters. No matter what method they used, they had to send them over within 3 days.

Many stewards of the Glorious Treasures Chamber of Commerce also moved out and went to other chambers of commerce to buy a large amount of Ancient Demons’ blood essences.

Such actions naturally attracted the suspicion of other chambers of commerce.

The World Chamber of Commerce, the headquarters in the Mystic Sky Immortal City.

In a room on the third floor sat a middle-aged man. His thick eyebrows were like caterpillars that were squeezed together.

The man thought for a while but did not have any leads. He placed the 2 jade balls in his hands on the table and asked.

“Steward Xiao, are you sure you’re not mistaken? Why does the Glorious Treasures Chamber of Commerce need so much Ancient Demons’ blood essences?”

On the opposite side of the table stood an older man, who slowly said, “I don’t know what they want the Ancient Demons’ blood essences for, but I’m sure that Xu Hu has ordered all the branches of the Glorious Treasures Chamber of Commerce to send over the Ancient Demons’ blood essences. Besides, the stewards of their chamber of commerce have all moved out and gone to almost every chamber of commerce. They only have one purpose, which is to buy the Ancient Demons’ blood essences.”

The middle-aged man slowly stood up. He looked out of the window and said, “Could it be that they’ve discovered some special use in the Ancient Demons’ blood essences, which is why they amassed a large amount of them?”

Steward Xiao frowned and said, “We haven’t investigated this clearly. The Ancient Demons’ blood essences have existed for countless years. If they had other uses, it would’ve been discovered long ago. Those human powerhouses still don’t know the other uses of the Ancient Demons’ blood essences. I don’t believe that the Glorious Treasures Chamber of Commerce would have any new discoveries. They’re of little value to our chamber of commerce.”

“Great Elder, the steward of the Glorious Treasure Chamber of Commerce is downstairs. What should we do?” Steward Xiao asked.

The middle-aged man pondered for a moment and said, “Sell the blood essences to them but increase the price by 50% .”

“Yes.” Steward Xiao nodded and walked downstairs.

Such a scene happened in several Immortal Cities. The other chambers of commerce did not think much of it at first, but they later found that even though they increased the price by several times, the other party still bought the blood essences without hesitation. Those people from the Glorious Treasures Chamber of Commerce seemed to be possessed. They had fixed their eyes on the Ancient Demons’ blood essences and would buy them no matter what price they had to pay.

‘Could it be because of that old thing’s illness?’ Someone pondered.

‘That’s not right. That old thing damaged his soul. The Ancient Demons’ blood essences are of little use to humans. They’re not even comparable to the pills that are 100 times cheaper than them. What’s the Glorious Treasures Chamber of Commerce doing?’

Many people guessed, but they were unable to figure out the Glorious Treasures Chamber of Commerce’s intentions.

All the chambers of commerce, big and small, had made huge profits from their deals.

Those merchants who sold the blood essences earlier saw that the prices had soared, and they were filled with regret. Despite that, the Glorious Treasures Chamber of Commerce would not give them the chance to go back on their word.

“Great Elder, the price that the Hengtong Chamber of Commerce offered has exceeded the original price of the Ancient Demons’ blood essences by 20 times. What should we do?”

In the Glorious Treasures Chamber of Commerce, Steward Mu stood next to Xu Hu for advice.

“That fella Qiu Ren probably wants to scam us. What about the other places?” Xu Hu asked.

Steward Mu replied, “The other places are fine. Although the final prices were several times higher than expected, they’re still fine overall. We’ve bought almost all the blood essence from the other chambers of commerce. Of course, we can’t rule out that they have some hidden.”

Xu Hu nodded and said, “That’s common. We’ve bought the Ancient Demons’ blood essences so openly and without haggling over the prices. There must be some people who think that the blood essences have some special function. It’s normal for them to keep some. It’s impossible for us to get all the Ancient Demons’ blood essences in 3 days. As long as the quantity can satisfy Ruler Ming, it’ll be fine.”

“What about Qiu Ren?” Steward Mu asked again.

Xu Hu’s eyes were gloomy. “Buy them first. We’ll settle the score with him later. The Hengtong Chamber of Commerce has scammed us countless times. It’s time for them to pay a price.”

He looked at the counter at the side. There was a Taoist Tool inside.

“When will President come back?” Xu Hu raised his head.

Steward Mu’s expression was grave. “President has rushed back from Bayan Planet. He’ll arrive tomorrow at the earliest.”

Xu Hu nodded. Steward Mu also left. He still had to deal with the matter with the Hengtong Chamber of Commerce. They had been bitten, but their chamber of commerce still accepted it. Compared to the 10,000 years of accumulation of their chamber of commerce, buying the Ancient Demons’ blood essences was not a big deal.

Everything went smoothly.

On the third day, piles of Ancient Demons’ blood essences were sent from all directions from the Zhenwu Continent.

This was supposed to be good news, but extreme joy gave birth to sorrow. At noon, a guard covered in blood rushed over.

“The Ancient Demons’ blood essences from the Northern Blade Immortal City were taken away on the way.”
