Chapter 1581: Chapter 364_6
“Should we go check the situation? After all, our Wansheng City has rules. If he causes trouble or acts violently outside the Rare Treasures Commerce Association, he’s violating our city’s regulations and should be punished accordingly.”
The young City Lord heard the words but made no move to stand. Instead, he pointed to the teacup in front of him, signaling for the other to sit and join him while calmly saying, “He went inside the Rare Treasures Commerce Association to cause trouble for them. What does that have to do with us?
On the contrary, the more they stir up chaos, the better for us. They…”
Before he could finish his words, a giant “W” suddenly illuminated the Void!
A gleam of joy instantly appeared on the young City Lord’s face, he laughed wildly, “They crushed the Jade Pendant, this outcome is even better than I imagined, there couldn’t be a better result.”
The moment he finished speaking, he stood up, flying into the air, while shouting to the man with the bushy beard, “Hurry, gather all the Longevity Period experts in Wansheng City and head to the Rare Treasures Commerce Association.”
Cao Zhen had already taken away a lot of herbs from the Immortal Grass Treasury, and being in the Longevity Period, he used immortal power. Though there were plenty of herbs in the Treasury, under his spell, each herb rose into the air and landed in the Qiankun Bag he brought along.
In the blink of an eye, the previously full Treasury had become empty.
He glanced at the entrance, his hands releasing an ominous immortal power, slamming down towards the Treasury.
The Treasury wasn’t built with ordinary soil, but its sturdiness was mostly due to the Formation here.
Now, the Treasury’s Formation has been destroyed at its Formation Eye, unable to exert its power.
With almost full force, Cao Zhen’s attack shattered the entire Treasury, and dirt exploded all around. The flying rubble emitted a resonant sound as they flew far away, crashing into the walls of a distant house, instantly creating round holes!
Amidst the dust, Cao Zhen spread his silver wings, rising into the Void. From afar, the Earth Immortal Realm aura was rapidly approaching him, numbering over four hundred by a rough estimate.
They should be the Earth Immortal Realm experts from Wansheng City.
Cao Zhen did not leave immediately but turned to threaten the people at the Rare Treasures Commerce Association, “This is just a warning. Next time, if the Pinbao Business Association or any branch store is attacked, I’ll destroy your branch stores!”
As soon as he finished speaking, his silver wings flapped rapidly, turning into a streamer appearing in the distance. Then a voice echoed, “Wansheng City is a place you can come and go as you please.”
After the words, sounds of spells flying by could be heard from the Void.
But after just a brief moment, the sound disappeared, followed by figures flying from afar, landing in the Rare Treasures Commerce Association.
Among the people from the Rare Treasures Commerce Association, a slightly plump person looked at the incoming individuals, his gaze quickly falling on the purple-clothed middle-aged man, displeasedly saying, “Young Mansion Master Wan, did your City Lord fall asleep that Wansheng City’s rules have changed
?
Why did Cao Zhen come to our Rare Treasures Commerce Association to kill, and yet people from Wansheng City never showed up?”
“Did Cao Zhen come to kill?” The young City Lord Wan said looking at the fallen people on the ground, an exaggerated surprise appeared on his face as he exclaimed, “Were all these people killed by Cao Zhen? We only knew that Cao Zhen flew into the city, but we didn’t know Cao Zhen came to kill.
So we did not stop him, after all, Wansheng City does not prohibit anyone from flying in.
We did not expect Cao Zhen to come here and kill. If we had known, we would surely have arrived early to capture and imprison him. But rest assured, the rules of Wansheng City will never change. Although Cao Zhen escaped this time, he will never be allowed back into Wansheng City. If he does intrude again, Wansheng City will immediately take action.”
The Rare Treasures Chairman snorted heavily, his face showing a deep shade of blue. The young City Lord of Wansheng City must have done this intentionally; even when they chased Cao Zhen just now, they didn’t really exert themselves, merely putting on a show.
Now he had no time to deal with the young City Lord of Wansheng City; his headache was how to handle this!
The performance of the Rare Treasures Commerce Association had declined under his management, but that was secondary; the main issue was that their Rare Treasures Commerce Association in Eastern Province had been invaded, a group of experts killed, and a whole Treasury of resources taken away.
How could he afford the loss of a whole Treasury’s resources!
Moreover, how to repair the damaged reputation of their Rare Treasures Commerce Association?
If others learn that their headquarters was attacked, would they be tempted to target their Rare Treasures Pavilion in other cities?
When the Indestructible Period experts awaken, how should he explain?
He couldn’t flee like Tao Zhenghe, could he?
His family is too deeply entangled with the Eastern Province branch of the Rare Treasures Commerce Association. If he fled, all his family members would die!
Moreover, even if he fled, where would he go?
Now, the only solution is to kill Cao Zhen before the Indestructible Period experts awaken, seize back those resources, and restore reputation.
But how to kill Cao Zhen with his current strength?
Currently, across the entire Eastern Province, perhaps only the Bleeding Tears Assassin of the Assassins possesses the ability to kill Cao Zhen.
Should he agree to the Assassins?
But the Assassins’ asking price is too high.
Somewhere in Eastern Province, within a spacious underground palace, three individuals wearing robes, each masked, gathered together again.
Among them, the one in the blue robe spoke first again, “The Rare Treasures Commerce Association retaliated against the Pinbao Business Association just now. Cao Zhen immediately left the Fourth Dangerous Terrain, then slaughtered his way into the Eastern Province’s branch of the Rare Treasures Commerce Association, committing massacres while seizing one of their Immortal Grass Treasuries.
It’s obvious Cao Zhen knows his Pinbao Business Association was retaliated upon by the Rare Treasures Commerce Association.
But how did he know since there’s no way of communicating with the outside world from within the Dangerous Terrain?”
