Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“I’m from the Lu family. The entire Deep Freeze Chamber of Commerce belongs to the Lu family. In Oak City, I am all-powerful.”
Lin Yuan was irritated by Lu Kun. It was clear that Lu Kun had already branded them for death.
Lin Yuan turned and said, “Ji Feng, I’ll leave this to you. Little Flower and Little Gra.s.s are here, so keep it clean.”
Ji Feng nodded and summoned the Karma Sword Lily with a wave of his hand.
A white-haired man with gray eyes appeared in the air above Lu Kun’s group. It was clear that he was not human.
!!
The elderly man next to Lu Kun ventured a guess and could not help but shout, “Young Master Lu Kun, that is a Myth II fey! They have an emperor-cla.s.s expert amongst them!”
A cold voice sneered, “You’re wrong. You can’t even tell I’m a plant-type fey. How stupid.”
The Karma Sword Lily swung its sword, and sparks imbued with karma power swallowed the sky and earth. A moment later, the sparks dissipated.
At that moment, it was as though the group of people and feys had never appeared before Lin Yuan.
The sparks from the Karma Sword Lily’s sword cut up everything into dust, including the ground below them.
Once the Karma Sword Lily was done, it walked over to Lin Yuan and bowed as it said, “Lord, I did it cleanly like you asked.”
Lin Yuan had helped the Karma Sword Lily breakthrough Myth III. Hence, it had a deep respect for Lin Yuan.
The Karma Sword Lily was a support-type fey and did not usually engage in combat.
Now that it was facing an enemy more than one grade below it, it finally experienced the adrenaline rush of battle.
The Karma Sword Lily thought, If the Prior Decree Sleeping Lotus was here, she would be so impressed by me!
Lu Kun had said that he was from the Lu family who controlled the Deep Freeze Chamber of Commerce.
This meant that the Lu family was a secret elite family from the Great Lush Federation.
However, Lin Yuan could not see the glamor of an elite family from Lu Kun’s demeanor and dressing. This meant that he was probably not a direct descendant of the Lu family.
By killing Lu Kun, Lin Yuan had made an enemy of the Deep Freeze Chamber of Commerce.
The people Lu Kun had brought with him had not been with him on the street. Otherwise, the pinnacle king-cla.s.s elderly man would have stepped in when Genius. .h.i.t Lu Kun.
This meant that the elderly man and the spirit qi professionals dressed in black uniforms were from the Deep Freeze Chamber of Commerce’s Oak City branch.
The Deep Freeze Chamber of Commerce would eventually sense that something was wrong when these people did not return.
Lin Yuan had planned on using his connection with the Sincere Merchant Group and helping them raise their rank within the Deep Freeze Chamber of Commerce so that he would be able to use them to exchange for resources with the Deep Freeze Chamber of Commerce.
As long as Lin Yuan did not personally expose his connection with the Sincere Merchant Group, he would not affect them in any way.
However, from what Lu Kun did and the way that the Deep Freeze Chamber of Commerce sent out its members to support him, Lin Yuan saw the ugly underbelly of the Deep Freeze Chamber of Commerce. He felt that they were not a good collaborative partner.
Lin Yuan planned on calling Mr. Zhao from the Sincere Merchant Group to see if he and the rest of the Sincere Merchant Group were currently in Oak City.
Meanwhile, at one of the Deep Freeze Chamber of Commerce’s treehouse hotels…
Mr. Zhao was holding a baby and allowing him to play with his beard. He was not reading a story to the baby like he usually did.
The middle-aged man next to him frowned and asked, “Dad, our Item-Storing Walnuts full of resources have been taken by the manager. However, more than a day and a half has pa.s.sed, and there hasn’t been a response. Do you think there’s a problem?”
Merchant groups lived a dangerous life of buying and selling. They ran into many robber groups during their trips.
Mr. Zhao immediately sensed that something was wrong. He took a deep breath and said to the middle-aged man, “Jiazhi, hold Bean for a while. Let’s go downstairs and call for a gathering of the members. We’ll go and ask the manager if we manage to trade for the alcohol and plants.”
Although the elderly man said this, he had a growing bad feeling.
The manager should have handled their resources within an hour or two and offered them an appropriate trade. It should not take more than a day.
There were many merchant groups under the Deep Freeze Chamber of Commerce that were more powerful than the Sincere Merchant Group. However, they could most settle their resources’ processing in four hours.
Mr. Zhao thought about the person in the tent who never said a word, and he felt more at ease.
He remembered Lin Yuan saying that this person could protect the Sincere Merchant Group.
When all the Sincere Merchant Group members gathered, Mr. Zhao walked over to the man and told him about the situation in detail. However, he did not receive any response. If he had not seen this person walking, Mr. Zhao would have mistaken him for a mannequin.
A few months ago, there was a rumor in Oak City that many merchant groups under the Deep Freeze Chamber of Commerce had disappeared without a trace.
But rumors were just rumors, and Mr. Zhao did not put much stock into them.
But now that he thought more about it, he realized that all the merchant groups that had disappeared had hit the jackpot.
A chilling feeling gripped Mr. Zhao and sent a s.h.i.+ver up his spine.
However, he could not tell the rest of the Sincere Merchant Group about his thoughts because it would only lead to panic, and nothing would be solved.
If his guess was right, they could flee, but that would mean that all the resources that Lin Yuan had given them would go to waste.
Lin Yuan was the Sincere Merchant Group’s savior. He had brought them hope and the resources to climb the ranks. Mr. Zhao could not fail Lin Yuan no matter what.
Mr. Zhao forced himself to calm down as he led the members of the Sincere Merchant Group to the Deep Freeze Chamber of Commerce’s entrance.
This was when he realized that the guards did not stop them like they usually did.
