Chapter 3309: The Sword Emperors Choice (Two)
Apart from a few properties owned by large organisations, there doesnt seem to be anything else interesting in that direction. Ancestor Li followed the Sword Emperors gaze with some curiosity.
No, theres still one place worthy of attention. The Sword Emperor looked away and turned towards ancestor Li. Youve only just emerged from secluded cultivation, so perhaps there are still some things youre unaware of. The Xia Merchant Union has been behaving extremely erratically recently. Theyve already begun unifying the entire commerce side of the Peace region.
In other words, the Xia Merchant Union has already made a decision and submitted to the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King? Ancestor Li sighed gently and continued, With a heavenly king supporting them, the Xia Merchant Union can obviously take over all the commerce of the Peace region with ease.
The Sword Emperor shook his head. But according to my understanding, the Xiong family and Zhan family in charge of the other two merchant unions have already pledged themselves to the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King beforehand. After that, they began working together against Xia Jianming.
Yet in the end, Xia Jianming lived. Meanwhile, the Xiong family and Zhan family were both destroyed. Their ancestors perished one after the other, and the businesses beneath them have all been swallowed by the Xia Merchant Union.
That happened? Ancestor Lis eyes shone brightly, having sensed that something was off already.
Also, Bai Yurou of the White Emperor clan possesses outstanding talent. She is rumoured to be able to become a heavenly king in the future, so the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King would never spare her. She entered the courtyard belonging to the Xia Merchant Union before the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King entered my Sword Emperor city.
A day ago, the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King also entered this courtyard. As soon as he entered the courtyard, his presence vanished.
Ancestor Lis eyes abruptly narrowed when he sensed that. He was just about to release the senses of his soul to investigate.
Dont use the senses of your soul. Thats a form of great disrespect to a heavenly king! The Sword Emperor immediately stopped ancestor Li before producing a gasp of surprise. After sensing around carefully, his expression changed slightly. He murmured, That girl Bai Yurou has actually emerged from the courtyard.
The Xia Merchant Union? Ancestor Li became stern as well and said in thought, Looks like theres also a force behind the Xia Merchant Union working against the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King. Dont tell me another heavenly king has interfered?
The Sword Emperor shook his head. The other heavenly kings have all stood aside with regard to the mess of the Peace region, refusing to interfere with it, as this is a conflict between rulers.
In other words, one of the two other rulers is supporting the Xia Merchant Union? Ancestor Lis voice became rather grim. If the three rulers wanted to clash in the Peace region, then the entire place would probably be caught in a storm of blood.
That should be the case. The Sword Emperor gradually became serious. He also sensed the significance of this.
If the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King only moved around as a representative of the Blood Slaughter Ruler, then this would be much simpler. Just submitting was enough. Once the Peace region was completely conquered by him, it would only be a clash among rulers even if the Jade Sky Ruler and the Heaven Fighting Ruler objected.
However, if the Jade Sky Ruler and the Heaven Fighting Ruler both partic.i.p.ated in the same way, placing a few cities under their control while being unable to reach an agreement over their conflicts of interests, then conflict between imperial cities would be extremely likely to unfold.
In the past, before the Peace region had been formally established, there had always been constant skirmishes between the three rulers at their borders. Afterwards, in order to avoid this situation, the three rulers all gave up a part of their borders, forming the Peace region today.
The Peace region actually exists as a buffer region to prevent skirmishes between the three rulers. If the Peace region ceases to exist, then the entire Wood Spirits World would descend into chaos.
Ancestor Li let out a great sigh. His face was filled with worry.
In the courtyard of the Xia Merchant Union, Bai Yurou had already brought all her clansmen in Sword Emperor city over.
After helping the weaker clansmen settle down, she led several dozen elites of the White Emperor clan to see Jian Chen.
Including Chu Tianxing and elder Qing, the six surviving G.o.dkings were all present. Among the OverG.o.ds, Bai Changlin who had first met Jian Chen from the ancient forest beast was also present.
But at this moment, everyone looked towards Jian Chen with extremely mixed emotions.
In particular, Bai Changlins face was pure-white as his entire body shook uncontrollably.
He had already learnt Jian Chens ident.i.ty from Bai Yurou. He also learnt that the person who had secretly a.s.sisted them twice in Death Valley was actually the disabled man right before his eyes.
Senior, I was unaware of your ident.i.ty before, so if I have disrespected you in any shape or form, please forgive me!
After everyone greeted him, elder Qing stepped forward with a face filled with regret and sincerity, bowing towards Jian Chen politely.
The courtyard is very large. Its enough to house all of you, so feel free to do whatever you like. If theres nothing important, dont disturb me. Jian Chen waved his hand in an unconcerned manner. He stood at a completely different height, so his insight and breadth of mind was much vaster. He obviously would not haggle over these trifles with these G.o.dkings.
Yes, senior, then well take our leave first! Bai Yurou bowed towards Jian Chen and was about to leave with her clansmen.
Bai Yurou, go and receive the person outside. You happen to be acquainted with him, Jian Chen suddenly said to Bai Yurou.
Bai Yurou was surprised, but she soon returned to her senses and responded politely, making her way straight towards the main entrance.
As the prodigy of the White Emperor clan, she no longer possessed any sense of arrogance. She did not feel any resistance or displeasure towards Jian Chens almost-commanding tone.
Bai Yurou opened the front door. When she saw the person outside, her eyes suddenly narrowed, but she soon clasped her fist and bowed. So its the Sword Emperor. Please come in, Sword Emperor! The senior is already waiting for you!
The Sword Emperor entered the courtyard. He noticed the ruined landscape of the courtyard immediately and became solemn. 4887
He was in Sword Emperor city, yet he failed to notice any of the disturbance from the battle that occurred right beneath his nose despite his strength.
That left him extremely shocked.

Yurou, were these traces left behind by the battle between the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King and the senior? the Sword Emperor asked Bai Yurou secretly.
Bai Yurou only nodded without making a verbal response.
What was the outcome of the battle? Is the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King still here? the Sword Emperor continued to ask.
I cant really describe the outcome properly, but the Ceremonial Bell Heavenly King left in the end, Bai Yurou responded.
He left? The Sword Emperor furrowed his brows and sank into his thoughts.
Very soon, the Sword Emperor appeared before Jian Chen under Bai Yurous lead.
As soon as he saw Jian Chen, the Sword Emperor knew that he was not any of the nine heavenly kings, nor any of the experts that he knew.
I am Jian Feng. Greetings, fellow. How may I address you? The Sword Emperor clasped his fist.
Jian Chen!
Fellow Jian Chen, please forgive my question, but do you belong to the Heaven Fighting Ruler or the Jade Sky Ruler?
