51: Duobao Pavilion

The excitement from before was gone, as if this was the most normal thing to do.

What frustrated them most was the reaction of the Yang family.

Although they had failed, there was no anger or dejection as they had imagined.

Just as a Han Family Disciple was about to go outside the courtyard to fight again, the Han Family Head suddenly said, "That's enough."

"Let's stop here."

"There's no point in continuing to fight."

Suddenly, his expression darkened.

He stared coldly at the Han Family members and said, "Do not be careless."

"Although you have won a few battles, do not forget."

"The truly formidable young people of the Han Family have not yet made a move."

This sentence made the already dispirited Han Family members suddenly feel lost.

That's right.

How could they have forgotten?

Those five children from the Han Family had not made a move.

And it was caused by their organization.

If those five children were to make a move, who among the present Han Family members would be their match?

The Han Family stayed at the Yang family for another day before taking their leave.

Although they had sparred with the Han Family this time, the relationship between the two sides had eased.

Yang Yi specifically asked Yang Ming to instruct the Yang family not to provoke the Han Family recently.

If a conflict arose with the Han Family, they should try to swallow their pride.

Now they needed to keep a low profile.

He alone could hardly support the entire Yang family.

Fortunately, the Yang family was now on the right track.

With the Cultivation Technique given by Yang Yi, Yang Ming was cultivating at lightning speed.

He was about to Breakthrough to the Earth Star Realm.

If he were to Breakthrough to the Earth Star Realm, the Yang family would have an expert to hold the fort.

The others' Cultivation was also not bad.

Several had already reached the Life and Death Realm.

The children's Cultivation was also growing steadily.

The next period of time was calm and uneventful.

Zhong Mingyi observed the changes in the Yang family and marveled inwardly.

The changes in the Yang family were truly too great.

When he was in Dragon Tiger City, he had heard of the Yang family.

At that time, that Yang family was already on the decline.

Not to mention experts, there wasn't even a single person who could be considered capable.

But now, invisibly, there were several more experts.

It seemed to have recovered to its former glory.

Since the Yang family wiped out the other three major families in Tian Yuan City, most of the businesses in the entire Tian Yuan City were basically in the hands of the Yang family.

It could be said that they were raking in money daily.

This made many merchants jealous.

However, restricted by the Yang family's powerful strength in Tian Yuan City, they dared not say anything and could only swallow their grievances.

One day, a Duobao Pavilion suddenly opened in Tian Yuan City.

The appearance of the Duobao Pavilion made these shrewd merchants see endless wealth.

Although the Duobao Pavilion was just a shop selling various treasures, its influence spread across the entire Yun Prefecture.

There was a Duobao Pavilion in almost every city.

Moreover, every Pavilion Master of the Duobao Pavilion was a person of great ability.

There were also many experts stationed in the Duobao Pavilion.

The merchants' first thought was to use the Duobao Pavilion to eliminate the pressure the Yang family exerted on them.

On the day the Duobao Pavilion opened, all the merchants in Tian Yuan City went, bringing generous gifts.

As the number one Family in Tian Yuan City, the Yang family also received an invitation from the Duobao Pavilion.

The invitation was addressed to Yang Yi.

Yang Yi did not have time to go, so he let Yang Ming go.

Yang Ming took a few Yang family members and went.

Yang Ming was well aware of the Duobao Pavilion's background and dared not be negligent.

He arrived with generous gifts.

The originally lively scene suddenly became quiet because of his appearance.

Everyone looked as if they had seen a devil.

Whenever he walked forward, the people in front would inevitably clear a wide path.

While Yang Ming enjoyed this feeling, he was also somewhat annoyed.

Although the Yang family was the number one Family in Tian Yuan City, they did not bully or suppress them, and they coexisted peacefully in business.

However, in certain businesses, the Yang family had its own regulations.

For example, the business of brothels.

The Yang family set its own rules.

Brothels could open, but they could not force women, and they could not traffic women and children.

For instance, other businesses also had explicit regulations.

Within Tian Yuan City, forced buying and selling were not allowed, and prices could not be deliberately raised.

For the common people of Tian Yuan City, this was a good thing.

But for the merchants, this seriously harmed their interests.

The Pavilion Master of the Duobao Pavilion was a slim woman.

She wore a white veil, so her Face could not be seen clearly.

A faint fragrance emanated from her body, making people want to get close to her and smell it a few more times.

"Oh my."

"Isn't this Yang Ming of the Yang family?"

"Your arrival is truly an honor for my Duobao Pavilion."

"Quick, quick, please come in."

Yang Ming cupped his hands at the Pavilion Master and said modestly, "You are overstating it."

"The Duobao Pavilion is famous throughout the continent."

"Our Yang family is just a tiny ant in front of the Duobao Pavilion."

"I hope you will take care of us in the future."

The Pavilion Master smiled sweetly, her voice gentle and crisp.

"You are being too modest."

"Although the Duobao Pavilion has great influence, a mighty Dragon cannot crush a local serpent."

"This small Tian Yuan City is the Yang family's territory."

"In the future, I ask the Yang family to take care of my Duobao Pavilion."

Changing the subject, the Pavilion Master suddenly asked, "I wonder why the Yang Family Head did not come?"

"Does he look down on my Duobao Pavilion?"

Just as Yang Ming wanted to speak, someone among the merchants spoke up.

"The Yang Family Head is an incredible person."

"He never takes others to heart."

"He talks about killing at the drop of a hat, and threatens to exterminate entire families."

"He doesn't give Face to anyone."

"Dragon Tiger City, the Han Family, Opening Heaven Gate, the Yun City Zhang Family—whose Face has he ever given?"

"Presumably, he won't give Face to the Duobao Pavilion either."

Yang Ming frowned and glared viciously at the merchants present.

He turned to the Pavilion Master and said, "My Family Head has important matters to attend to."

"He cannot get away."

"I hope you will forgive him."

"He told me."

"He respects the Duobao Pavilion very much."

"And will strongly support it."

"I invite you to visit the Yang family when you have time."

"Alright, I will visit the Yang family tomorrow."

The Pavilion Master's words shocked everyone.

Yang Ming was also stunned.

He clearly knew that what he said was just polite talk, yet she actually climbed up the pole.

It seemed that this person had ulterior motives for coming to Tian Yuan City to open the Duobao Pavilion.

The two chatted for a few more sentences, and then the Pavilion Master started chatting with other merchants.

Yang Ming did not stay long and immediately returned to the Yang family, and informed Yang Yi of the matter.

Yang Yi asked about the situation of the Duobao Pavilion.

Upon learning that the Duobao Pavilion was a shop selling various treasures, his heart stirred.

This was a force that gathered a vast amount of wealth.

If he could uproot them and take the treasures for himself, the Yang family would surely be able to ascend to the heavens in one step.

However, such things could only be dreamed of.

With his current strength, not to mention uprooting the entire Duobao Pavilion, even this small Duobao Pavilion in Tian Yuan City was not something he could contend with.
