Blackrock City, Inner City, Yonghe District.
At the Xu family’s main residence.
In the study, Xu Ling was pacing back and forth with a solemn expression.
She had successfully grasped Internal Force at the age of 24 and become a
Force Tempering Martial Master. She was already a one-in-a-million expert.
The Xu family also became a top faction in Blackrock City.
Those high and mighty Martial Masters were each more polite than the other. The invitations for her to attend the banquet piled up like a mountain.
The business of the trading companies in the nearby cities could be said to be smooth sailing.
However, something that had happened recently made her a little worried.
The trading company was prepared to expand its business, so it stuck its foot into Baijie City, which was even further away. Unexpectedly, it was this move that ruined the big matter.
Half a month ago, the trading company accepted a big order in Baijie City.
It they succeeded, they could earn at least ten thousand taels of silver.
However, once the mission failed, the trading company would probably have to pay 30,000 taels of silver.
With the current strength of the Xu family and the Su family, they could grit their teeth and take out 30,000 taels of silver, but that would be a huge blow.
In the future, not to mention strengthening the trading company, they might not even be able to protect the current basic market.
However, if the caravan continued to carry out missions, they might not be able to return.
This was because she had encountered an expert who claimed to be the Hall Master of the Blood Spirit Hall of the Longevity Sect. The other party had invited her to join the sect and said that he would support the development of the trading company in the future.
Otherwise, she would have to bear the consequences.
Thinking of the matter in Baijie City, Xu Ling felt that she might have fallen into a trap.
This was a trap.
The Longevity Sect was a heretic sect and was wanted by the prefecture capital. She naturally did not want to be related to such a faction.
She discussed it with Su Yun whose suggestion was to find a few more experts to travel with them. It was best to pull Lu Yi along. Then, after completing the mission, they would directly move to the prefecture capital.
Xu Ling thought about it and decided not to tell Han Zhao for the time being.
In the past, she would write to Han Zhao every once in a while and send some money over.
However, eight months ago, Han Zhao replied to her and told her not to send any more money.
It was not good for her to write more frequently.
After all, Han Zhao was working hard in the prefecture capital alone. He did not have the energy to be worried about her. She didn’t want to write letters for no reason and make Han Zhao uneasy.
However, this was a serious matter. If something really happened, she would still inform Han Zhao.
Back then, they had agreed that she would go to the prefecture capital to look for him after she grasped Internal Force.
Xu Ling had long been unable to hold back her longing, but she still wanted to earn another sum before leaving.
After all, if he went to the prefecture capital, his expenses would definitely increase greatly.
Han Zhao would definitely not stop here.
Therefore, she did not dare to slack off. She did not want the gap to widen.
“I hope Su Yun can find a few experts.”
Xu Ling sighed.
Five days later.
In the evening.
A man and a woman arrived at the entrance of the Su residence.
The man was dressed in blue and gently fanned himself.
The woman was wearing a long white dress that covered her face.
The two of them looked at the plaque on the door and stopped.
“Cousin, it should be here, right?”
“There’s only one Su family in Blackrock City. It must be here.”
The two of them were Su Tianqi and Su Ningqiu.
It turned out that Su Yun had specially written to the main family of the county city because of this mission, wanting the Su family of the county city to send a Martial Master expert to help.
As for the Su family in this county city, it was a branch of the Su family, one of the three aristocratic families in Cloud Prefecture.
Eight months ago, Su Tianqi was frightened by Lang Fanyun’s strength, so he left the prefecture capital after returning to the sh.o.r.e and traveled to the surrounding cities for a few months.
Later on, he encountered a disciple of the prefecture capital’s Su family and was invited to the prefecture capital.
Although the Su family of the county city was not a top faction, they had a One Qi Grandmaster holding down the fort and were not weak.
The Su family treated Su Tianqi and Su Ningqiu, who came from the Su family’s main branch, with good wine and dishes all day long.
However, Su Tianqi was not interested in eating, drinking, playing, and
The only things he was interested in were martial arts and fame.
Therefore, after knowing that the Su family of Blackrock City was in trouble, he volunteered to pull Su Ningqiu along.
After witnessing the battle between Lang Fanyun and Qian Luohai, Su Tianqi felt that his path to fame was heavy and had a long way to go. He had to take it step by step.
The Longevity Sect was naturally not to be trifled with, but Blackrock City was a small city that he had never even heard of.
The Longevity Sect disciples who mingled in such a small city would at most reach the Greater Mastery of Force Tempering.
He was still absolutely confident in facing martial artists of the same level.
Otherwise, wouldn’t he, a true disciple of the Heavenly Profound Sect, become a fake?
Of course, this excluded the monsters on the Qilin Ranking.
“Cousin, if you want to deal with the Longevity Sect, there’s no need to come to such a small place, right? Did the previous incident leave such a huge psychological trauma on you?
Su Ningqiu was a little disgusted.
It was only after the previous incident that she realized that her cousin didn’t eat anything bad. He was clearly frightened by Lang Fanyun.
After the grandmaster battle ended, her cousin dared not go to the prefecture capital. This time, he even came to such a small city in a corner. “Shh! Cousin, can you not keep mentioning what happened last time?
Su Tianqi stopped fanning himself.
“Don’t tell me you came to such a place because you were afraid of meeting Lang Fanyun?” Su Ningqiu looked at him disdainfully.
“Cousin, you’re wrong. The Su family of Blackrock City is from the same sect as us and is also a member of the Su family. How can we leave them in the lurch?” Su Tianqi said righteously.
He felt that the biggest obstacle on the road to fame in the future was this cousin in front of him.
In order to prevent her from exposing her shortcomings in the future, he could only go all out and marry her!
“I see. I was thinking too much.” Su Ningqiu nodded and felt that what her cousin said made sense.
No matter what, the Su family here was related to them by blood. His thoughts just now were too cold-blooded..
