393: Returning to Yuejia
Su Chen could not be bothered to exchange pleasantries with the other party, so he left immediately after finishing his purchases.
Zhou Yunling took the space stone. After she slightly probed the Top-grade Immortal Crystals inside, she immediately let out a sigh of relief; at least the other party had not engaged in anything like extortion or short-changing the Top-grade Immortal Crystals.
Since learning that Fang He was a Taboo Expert, she had actually been very afraid in her heart.
She was worried that Su Chen might do something overbearing, such as giving much fewer Top-grade Immortal Crystals, or simply not giving any at all.
Such things were not impossible.
But for now, it seemed that such a thing had not happened.
Zhou Yunling also reacted immediately; she hurriedly followed Su Chen and wore a fawning smile on her face: "My lord, let me see you out."
She had once been listed among the top ten beauties, and combined with all the years of refinement, she now possessed a mature temperament and a unique kind of beauty.
Especially when she smiled, it was incomparably alluring.
That was how the "rose with thorns" reputation came about.
Alluring on the surface, yet sharp and dangerous underneath; that was Zhou Yunling.
Beside Su Chen, Yue Ninger was already shocked beyond measure. Although she looked calm on the surface, a monstrous storm was already raging in her heart.
What kind of background did her master have?
She had originally thought Su Chen was just an Immortal Emperor, but now things had actually developed to this point.
Yue Ninger had lived in the Pingxuan Empire for so many years, so she had naturally seen Zhou Yunling before. But seeing her being so respectful to Su Chen now made her entire perception of reality almost collapse.
Who was Zhou Yunling?
She was a Peak expert of the entire Pingxuan Empire, the Pavilion Master of the Myriad Things Pavilion, an existence whom even the Emperor of the Pingxuan Empire had to address as Fellow Daoist.
But now, the other party was calling Su Chen "My lord"!
Yue Ninger could not help but swallow her saliva. Suddenly, she remembered the resources and Cultivation Technique that Su Chen had given her, and she had an even more terrifying conjecture about this master in her heart.
Taboo!
The moment this thought appeared, Yue Ninger's heart began to beat wildly.
Let alone a Taboo Expert, even a Dominator Realm expert was a Heaven-Defying powerhouse that the entire Yue family could not afford to provoke.
But now, she had become the servant of a Taboo Expert.
And... he was actually not bad.
He just had some strange requests.
Yue Ninger suddenly blushed again. The things that had happened with Su Chen in the restaurant kept surfacing in her mind.
She even started to walk with a bashful gait.
But Yue Ninger was almost dizzy with happiness.
She was a woman, so she naturally had an admiration for the strong and hoped that she could marry a true Prodigy or expert in the future.
Being able to follow a Taboo Expert now was simply a great Opportunity that countless women could only dream of.
Plus, with the help of such a terrifying expert, wouldn't the problems of their Yue family be easily solved?
Thinking of this, Yue Ninger was once again incomparably excited.
After Su Chen and the others left the Myriad Things Pavilion, Zhou Yunling stood at the entrance, a grave light flickering in her eyes.
"Who exactly is he?"
She shook her head; an expert of this level was not something she could speculate about for now.
Walking up to Wu Hao, Zhou Yunling said indifferently: "No one is allowed to speak of today's events."
Wu Hao also knew the seriousness of the matter, so he hurriedly bowed and said: "Please rest assured, Pavilion Master. I will let this matter rot in my stomach. I will place a silence Spell on myself in a moment!"
The silence Spell was a type of Restriction Spell that could be used on others or oneself.
Once used, even if one probed the Divine Soul, it would be very difficult to know that sealed memory.
Of course, one could forcibly probe it, but the final result would be that the person being probed would perish on the spot.
Seeing Wu Hao so sensible, a look of satisfaction flashed in Zhou Yunling's eyes. She turned and left the Myriad Things Pavilion.
This time, Su Chen's order had not only bought out everything in the headquarters, but the warehouse was also empty, and more than 80% of the items in many branches had also been bought.
So she had to quickly find a way to collect some common resources to maintain normal operations first.
But as long as they could maintain normal operations, it would be fine.
Su Chen's one trillion Top-grade Immortal Crystals this time was already the sales volume of their Myriad Things Pavilion for many years. Even if they closed for a long time afterward, it would not affect them.
It was just that this would inevitably lower the influence of their Chamber of Commerce.
...
After leaving the Myriad Things Pavilion.
Su Chen followed Yue Ninger towards the Yue family.
Although the Yue family was having a very difficult time, they were not about to be wiped out immediately, so she was not in a hurry and headed towards the Yue family at a leisurely pace.
The location of the Yue family was in the main city of the Kaiming Prefecture, Kaiming City.
It was not far from Qingluan City.
On the way, Su Chen asked curiously: "Ninger, tell me about the situation of your Yue family in detail."
Hearing this, Yue Ninger pondered for a moment before immediately answering:
"The matter is actually relatively simple. The current Old Ancestor of my Yue family once had a grudge with the Old Ancestor of the Tianyun Sect when he was young, and it has lasted for a very long time."
"Grudges are bound to be accompanied by friction, and the infighting between the two major forces has intensified over time."
"It was tens of thousands of years ago that the Tianyun Sect suddenly gave birth to another Immortal Emperor. From then on, the balance between the two major forces disappeared. The Tianyun Sect suppressed us everywhere and has been looking for an Opportunity to wipe out my Yue family and take our place."
"My Yue family was once considered to have had interactions with the royal family of the Pingxuan Empire, but unfortunately, at the critical moment, they did not care at all and had no intention of helping."
"Those allies from back then also looked on coldly one by one."
Speaking of this, Yue Ninger's emotions were obviously a bit low.
Su Chen smiled and ruffled her hair, saying in a calm voice: "Don't worry, with me here, it will be fine."
Han Xi also stepped forward and held Yue Ninger's small hand, smiling and saying: "Little sister, don't worry, Master is very powerful."
Feeling the goodwill released by Han Xi, Yue Ninger nodded with a smile.
When she first came into contact with Han Xi, she thought the other party would reject her, but later she found that this girl was very nice.
She was considerate in every way.
In about two days, the group had arrived at Kaiming City.
Compared to Qingluan City, the scale of Kaiming City was obviously much larger, and there were three Dominator Realm experts within it.
Kaiming Prefecture could also be considered a relatively important place in the Pingxuan Empire, and there were naturally many experts.
Yue Ninger looked at the behemoth not far away, and suddenly felt a little nervous in her heart.
When she left Kaiming City this time, she only told her family that she was going to Cultivate. If she went back like this, would her parents blame her?
If they knew that she had become someone else's servant, what would they think?
Thinking of this, Yue Ninger began to feel a little nervous.
