Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The people that Lu Kun had brought with him had tried to kill Lin Yuan, but he only a.s.signed blame to Lu Kun instead of letting his grudge spread to the Deep Freeze Chamber of Commerce.

Yet, the Deep Freeze Chamber of Commerce had tried to kill the entire Sincere Merchant Group over resources. This made it personal for Lin Yuan.

He used to run a small spirit lifeform store. Although the merchant groups were doing a different form of business, they were fundamentally the same.

In fact, the merchant groups had to put their lives on the line more often in their day-to-day lives in order to make their living.

Moreover, these merchant groups were very reliant on the chambers of commerce. If the chambers of commerce were unscrupulous, the small merchant groups could do nothing about it.

!!

When he ran the spirit lifeform store, Lin Yuan had also been bullied by suppliers. He knew what it was like to be too helpless to even try to resist.

It was clear from the way that the Deep Freeze Chamber of Commerce was willing to kill for a few million Great Lush dollars worth of resources that they were despicable and evil.

When he sensed from Red Thorns sensing of Han Tianhe that the attendant had led the Sincere Merchant Group members to the eighth floor to ma.s.sacre them, it was clear that the Deep Freeze Chamber of Commerce had already done away with many merchant groups before.

Lin Yuan felt that there was no need for the Deep Freeze Chamber of Commerce to continue existing.

When Lin Yuan was about to leave the Prosperous Chamber of Commerce, Li Wan had a thoughtful expression on her face.

She picked up the pair of Bronze/Epic Item-Storing Walnuts and started to play with them.

This set of Item-Storing Walnuts should have ensured that the Prosperous Chamber of Commerces auction would be a success. They were so impressive that they would enable the Prosperous Chamber of Commerces reputation to rise to a whole new level.

Yet, she was not happy at all. Instead, her mind was filled with thoughts about Lin Yuan.

She wondered why Lin Yuan left the Prosperous Chamber of Commerce immediately after seeing the black and gold b.u.t.terfly insect-species carcinoma fey.

He had not even left his number before he left.

The only thing that was setting Li Wans mind at ease was that he had left ten million Great Lush dollars as a down payment with her. With this down payment here, he was sure to return to the Prosperous Chamber of Commerce.

Suddenly, Li Wan felt a sting in her throat and started to cough violently. During her fit of violent coughing, she spat a mouthful of blood out that splattered all over the table in front of her.

The elderly man standing next to Li Wan immediately handed her a handkerchief.

Her coughing fit lasted almost two minutes before she stopped while gently patting her chest.

She took the handkerchief from the elderly man and gently wiped away the blood near her mouth.

The elderly man cleaned the table while saying to Li Wan with a worried tone, Young Lady, your body isnt fit enough for all the hard work youve been doing. If you need anything done, tell me to do it. If you continue coughing in such a way, even the medicine left behind by the previous head of the family wont be enough to quell your worsening condition!

Li Wan did not look troubled by what he said.

Im aware of my condition. Im close to becoming a B-rank spirit qi professional. Once Im a B-rank spirit qi professional, my bodys overall condition will improve, and this coughing problem should be alleviated. At that time, Ill be able to consume less medicine while still being able to live for more than ten years. I have to save and secure the Prosperous Chamber of Commerce during that time by cultivating an outstanding successor. This is the only way Ill be able to keep from disappointing Dad.

Li Wans gaze softened, and she said, Lets not talk about this. Elder Duan, go and contact the Cla.s.s 2 and 3 Creation Master families were working with and send out the order for the items that Young Master Lin needs. Make sure to get them even if it means we have to spend a little more. Try to prepare all 120 weather-producing plants within the next month.

The elderly man hurriedly replied, Young Lady, I will be sure to perform this task to perfection!

After witnessing Li Wan and Lin Yuans interaction, the elderly man could tell that she wanted to establish a long-term working relations.h.i.+p with him.

It was possible that she had another motive in mind as well.

From the way that Lin Yuan could casually produce the Item-Storing Walnuts, the elderly man knew that Lin Yuan was powerful and wealthy.

Thus, he already regarded Lin Yuans order as extremely important even before Li Wans reminder.

The elderly man thought about how Li Wan struggled to hold up the Prosperous Chamber of Commerce on her own and said softly, Young Lady, do you think its possible that Young Master Lin will be willing to become our partner?

Li Wan looked up, and she seemed to have a response in mind. But instead of voicing it, she asked, The Deep Freeze Chamber of Commerce and Profit Source Chamber of Commerce

Before Li Wan could finish speaking, the enormous burning tree in the distance caught her attention.

This sight left both Li Wan and the elderly man stunned. But soon, delight spread across their faces.

Li Wan recognized the burning tree castle as the building that housed the Deep Freeze Chamber of Commerces Oak City branch.

The Deep Freeze Chamber of Commerce was the Prosperous Chamber of Commerces compet.i.tor.

The Deep Freeze Chamber of Commerce and Profit Source Chamber of Commerce had joined forces to conquer the rest of the chambers of commerce in Oak City.

As such, there was also deep resentment between the Prosperous Chamber of Commerce and the Deep Freeze Chamber of Commerce besides the usual tension of compet.i.tion.

No matter what the reason was, Li Wan was elated.

She stood up and said to the elderly man, Lets go and see whats happening from up close. We should take a look at who the Deep Freeze Chamber of Commerce has offended.

There were experts in the Deep Freeze Chamber of Commerce. Hence, it should have been impossible for the entire tree castle to be set alight no matter what could have happened.

As such, the person who set the Deep Freeze Chamber of Commerces tree castle ablaze could only be one of their enemies.

As the Deep Freeze Chamber of Commerces partner, the Profit Source Chamber of Commerce would definitely have sent a representative to the site of the fire.

Li Wan also wanted to see how the Profit Source Chamber of Commerce would react toward the Deep Freeze Chamber of Commerce.

At that moment, four groups of people were moving to Oak City.

Two experts flew out of the Cla.s.s 4 Creation Master family who lorded over Oak City and headed toward the Deep Freeze Chamber of Commerces tree castle.

A large group of people and horses charged out of the Profit Source Chamber of Commerces tree castle.

The person leading them was a young man with average features and dressed in green clothes.

This young man looked at the burning tree castle with a grim expression as he wondered what had happened at the Deep Freeze Chamber of Commerce.

They were in Oak City. Who was the person capable of setting fire to the Deep Freeze Chamber of Commerces tree castle?
