Chapter 743: It Was Actually Feng Yan Union
After thinking about it for a bit, Ling Chuxi understood what was going on. Duan Qingchen had strong cultivation, so he probably had taken Duan Xiaomo directly through the barrier to return to the sect. As for Duan Yufei and the rest, their cultivation was insufficient so they had to seek out the Cai Tong Chamber of Commerce.
The Cai Tong Chamber of Commerce was indeed mysterious. Even with Duan Qingchen’s impressive cultivation, he could only bring along Duan Xiaomo. Duan Yufei and the others still had to rely on the Cai Tong Chamber of Commerce to open the path. It seemed that the actual cultivation of the Cai Tong Chamber of Commerce was not to be underestimated. Perhaps it wasn’t as simple as the other sects just respecting them, but they might even fear them too. Exactly what kind of a background did this Cai Tong Chamber of Commerce have?
“Why are you all here?” Seeing Ling Chuxi and the rest again, Duan Yufei was a little surprised.
Yesterday, Ling Chuxi had rejected his token without hesitation, so he wasn’t too pleased to see her. Their Celestial Sect was the unofficial leader of the five great sects, so even a token of a rank lower than an outer disciple’s was still enough to make people flee like frightened ducks. He never expected that Ling Chuxi would reject his offer so blatantly and embarra.s.s him in front of everyone.
However, because of Duan Qingchen, he still had to remain courteous. The most he could manage was looking down his nose at her, displaying the superiority of a legitimate descendant of a Celestial Sect disciple.
“If you all can come here, then why can’t we? Is the Cai Tong Chamber of Commerce your family’s?” Lan Xinyu initially didn’t like him, and seeing him act all high and mighty made her dislike him even more.
“You all are also headed for the sects?” Duan Yufei asked condescendingly.
“Yes, and so what if we are?” Lan Xinyu retorted sharply when she heard his tone.
“If you are, then there’s not much point. You all should just go back,” Duan Yufei sneered.
“Whether we go back or not, what does it have to do with you?” Lan Xinyu scoffed, turning away from him in disdain.
“It indeed has nothing to do with me, but I am just telling you all that there’s no point in waiting. You’re only wasting your time here,” Duan Yufei said arrogantly.
“Hmph!” Lan Xinyu snorted, too lazy to bother about him.
At that moment, a ridiculously fat middle-aged man rushed towards the courtyard, constantly wiping sweat off his face. The man was truly enormous, but despite his size, he walked fast, and the entire courtyard trembled with each footstep.
This was the main shopkeeper of the Cai Tong Chamber of Commerce! Ling Chuxi was shocked, and all her questions about the Cai Tong Chamber of Commerce were instantly answered.
This man was the person in charge of capital city’s Feng Yan Union, Jin Buhuan!
She had asked Feng Yan Union to inquire about her parents ages ago, but after Jin Buhuan had rejected her query, he had given her a token and she had never seen him again.
To be able to send people to the sects… Feng Yan Union actually had such a cultivation and background. No wonder they had such strong forces.
Ling Chuxi stared at Jin Buhuan, but he was only concerned about wiping his sweat and rus.h.i.+ng along. He made a beeline towards Su Yizhi, not even looking at his surroundings, completely unaware of Ling Chuxi’s existence.
“You are Resurrection Hall’s Elder Su right? I apologize for letting you wait so long.” Jin Buhuan sat opposite Su Yizhi heavily, and everyone instantly felt the ground tremor. They looked at the stone stool he was sitting on, which now seemed to have sank half an inch. This weight was indeed terrifying.
