489: Can the Three Palaces continue to exist in the Inner Sea?
Ever since Shen Tianxing closed the teleportation channel between the Inner Sea and the Four Domains, he disappeared and had not been seen in the Inner Sea for a long time, not even at the Never Look Back Merchant Guild.
Many Cultivators wanted to meet him through Shen Liu and Shen Qi, but they were all rejected, and no one could see him.
Now, at the Never Look Back Merchant Guild, besides Shen Liu and Shen Qi who are guarding it, there are only Nie Feiyang, Nie Qingxue, and a few former Eight Seas Bandits.
The Trading Firm can now be considered full of talent. Nie Feiyang and his sister are both exceptionally gifted individuals, and they Cultivate their family's inherited Cultivation Technique. With the guidance of Shen Liu and Shen Qi, their Cultivation has advanced by leaps and bounds, reaching the Peak of the Heavenly Phenomenon Realm!
The eight guys from the Eight Seas Bandits have also made great progress. They were already experts in the Heavenly Phenomenon Realm before, and after being nurtured by Shen Tianxing, they have long since discarded their former infamous reputation and are now dedicated to being his Disciples, not far from the Peak of the Heavenly Phenomenon Realm.
With Shen Liu and Shen Qi, plus this group of Heavenly Phenomenon Realm Cultivators, no one would dare to covet the Trading Firm wherever it is placed.
In the back courtyard of the Trading Firm, as soon as Shen Tianxing and Yan Yuzhu appeared, Shen Liu, Shen Qi, Nie Feiyang, Nie Qingxue, and Chen Xuantong's eight people all stepped forward to greet them.
"Young Master, you're finally back!"
"Greetings, Young Master, greetings, Mistress!"
Yan Yuzhu's Face bloomed with a smile, like a hundred flowers in full bloom, causing everyone to fall into a daze.
She was simply too beautiful!
Even though they had seen many beautiful women around Shen Tianxing, and there were quite a few of stunning beauty, none could compare to the woman before them!
They were captivated by Yan Yuzhu's beauty, but Yan Yuzhu's heart was even more delighted; the address of 'Mistress' made her overjoyed!
Her relationship with Shen Tianxing, during these short three months of being alone together, had already broken through the most crucial barrier. It was no exaggeration to say she was Shen Tianxing's woman.
She truly deserved it!
"Your strength hasn't improved much, but your glib tongues have become increasingly smooth."
"However, this time, you showed some insight!"
Shen Tianxing looked at everyone, especially Shen Liu and Shen Qi, who lowered their heads under his gaze.
After all, they were Shen Tianxing's Incarnations, carrying Shen Tianxing's will, and Shen Tianxing had already informed them of his relationship with Yan Yuzhu.
This scene before them was definitely the doing of Shen Liu and Shen Qi.
However, Shen Tianxing didn't feel they had overstepped; instead, he was somewhat happy, and Yan Yuzhu's expression showed she had accepted it calmly.
After everyone had gotten acquainted, Shen Liu said, "Young Master, the Hall Masters of the Three Halls are requesting an audience in the front. They have been waiting here for three months."
Three months is not a long time for a Cultivator.
Shen Tianxing had only been gone for a little over three months.
However, when other Sect Masters came to pay their respects, they did not come, which was a bit out of line.
Shen Tianxing would not stay in the Inner Sea indefinitely, and before he left, he would certainly sort out the entire Inner Sea.
The Three Halls have a strong background among the Four Domains Immortal Great Sects. If they are not properly arranged, and someone were to 'steal their home' in the Inner Sea after he leaves, it would be a huge loss!
"Three months, huh? Very well, let's meet them."
Shen Tianxing said unhurriedly.
He knew about Canxing Hall among the Three Halls. With Shi Linglong there, Shen Tianxing would certainly not treat them too harshly.
But the other two Halls had long since caught Shen Tianxing's eye.
How much experience would he gain if he eliminated them?
Now, Shen Tianxing actually hoped they would resist stubbornly, so he would have a legitimate reason to deal with them.
"Understood, Young Master, I will bring them in."
Shen Liu took the order and left.
The Trading Firm was now very large. Besides the nine-story pavilion in the front, which was specifically used for the Trading Firm's operations, the back courtyard had expanded dozens of times and now had various halls specifically for meeting guests.
As Hall Masters of the Three Halls, they were naturally qualified to request an audience. Shen Tianxing had no intention of making things difficult for them, so he summoned them in a side hall.
When Li Yuanhao, Luo Tianchuan, and Shen Chong entered the main hall, Shen Tianxing and Yan Yuzhu were sitting Face to Face, sipping wine, waiting for their arrival.
"Li Yuanhao, Hall Master of Canxing Hall, greets Mr. Shen!"
"Shen Chong, Hall Master of Feiyu Hall, greets Mr. Shen!"
"Luo Tianchuan, Hall Master of Star Palace, pays respects to Mr. Shen!"
The three immediately saw Shen Tianxing. They had long remembered his appearance firmly in their minds, so they naturally recognized him at a glance.
However, when they saw Yan Yuzhu, a hint of surprise flashed in their eyes!
What a beautiful woman, like a Fairy from the heavens, pure and ethereal, yet possessing an innate nobility, with every gesture revealing a shocking dominance.
These different Auras appearing on one woman made even the three Golden Body Realm Cultivators feel a moment of trance, secretly thinking that this woman was not simple.
Shen Tianxing and Yan Yuzhu both took in the expressions of the three, but Shen Tianxing did not introduce Yan Yuzhu's identity to them.
Because there was no need!
"The three Hall Masters have come a long way; surely, it's not just to greet me?"
"I am very busy. The three of you can speak directly."
Shen Tianxing got straight to the point, speaking directly without any intention of exchanging pleasantries.
He was very clear about their identities, especially Li Yuanhao, who had a close relationship with Shi Linglong and was from Dianxing Academy.
But he had no intention of giving Face.
Because, in the Dragon Tomb Land, apart from Shi Linglong's two Senior Brothers who showed up, no one else did, and Li Yuanhao did not come forward to stop them.
Therefore, Shen Tianxing could give Face to Ji Tiange and Feng Wuliang, but not to anyone else from Canxing Hall!
The three were startled by these words, not adapting immediately.
According to custom, shouldn't they exchange pleasantries first, and then begin the conversation?
Why was Shen Tianxing so direct?
Although the three were unaccustomed, they had no choice. They were the ones seeking an audience; Shen Tianxing was not begging to see them!
"Mr. Shen, what are your plans for the future of the Inner Sea?" Shen Chong of Feiyu Hall asked cautiously.
The Inner Sea had changed greatly. Although it still maintained the old rule of fighting at the slightest disagreement, much had changed.
The injustice towards the Human Race in the Inner Sea had also significantly decreased.
Various Sects began to expand their recruitment of Disciples. Many members of the Human Race were exceptionally talented, and no one dared to look down on them anymore, so they also began to recruit the Human Race.
This was the change brought by Shen Tianxing.
But now that the Inner Sea had closed the channel to the Four Domains, its development depended on Shen Tianxing, the true controller, to decide.
Previously, this was all decided by the One Sect, Three Palaces, Six Mansions, Twelve Caves.
The three watched him intently, wondering what Shen Tianxing's attitude towards their Three Halls would be.
Could the Three Halls continue to exist in the Inner Sea?
After all, the forces of other Four Domains Immortal Great Sects in the Inner Sea had all been eradicated!
