275: I, Yang Yucheng! All I want is arrogance

“I presume that what you’ve said must hold a good deal of certainty; at least, it sounds like it has a certain feasibility!”

“You, kid! You’re extraordinary!”

This was the third time today that Protector Han, this convenient Revered Master, had praised Yang Yucheng since they met.

It was completely evident how enormous the impact of Yang Yucheng’s previous actions at Hongyan Tower had been on everyone in Qingyun Grotto-Heaven!

“Revered Master, old man, don’t you want a piece of the pie?”

Yang Yucheng offered this incredibly tempting condition!

Protector Han’s body and movements paused; the hand that was holding the teacup abruptly stopped. Although it was only for a moment, it was still there!

Placing the teacup back to his lips, Protector Han looked at Yang Yucheng with smiling eyes, the smile on his face becoming more frequent.

“You, Disciple, are thoughtful!”

“Revered Master is your Revered Master, and will naturally help you, Disciple, and lend you a hand. Tell me, what do you want me to do?”

Since Protector Han was so cooperative before they even met, Yang Yucheng simply spoke his mind directly.

“I hope, Revered Master, you will escort and protect your Disciple’s upcoming actions.”

“They won’t arouse the suspicion of the Steward Hall or the Elder Hall, but they will definitely provoke their greed! Elder Three, as the biggest protector of our business, can withstand the pressure from above. For the pressure from below, with Su Ran, a True Disciple, no one else would dare to do anything to me.”

“Plus, your Disciple also has certain methods; the Spirit Venerable Realm can still be sustained for one or two moments!”

“But it’s precisely these Elders of the Elder Hall in the Middle Stage of the Spirit Sect Realm that your Disciple truly feels powerless against, so I can only trouble Revered Master to help out a little more!”

“To reassure Revered Master!”

As soon as Yang Yucheng opened his mouth, he offered a grand benefit: “As long as Revered Master helps me complete my next actions and expand the business, the cultivation resources Revered Master receives each year will be enough for Revered Master, old man…”

“To Breakthrough from the Late Stage of the Spirit Sect Realm to the Spirit Master Sect Realm!”

“If Revered Master performs exceptionally well, your Disciple can speak a few good words for Revered Master in front of Elder Three.”

“After all!”

Yang Yucheng’s tone was leisurely; he spoke of everything with particular composure, “Even if you, Revered Master, Breakthrough to the Spirit Master Sect, it would never threaten Elder Three.”

“The three Elders of Qingyun Grotto-Heaven, each of their ambitions, is to Breakthrough to the Spirit Domain Realm!”

Yang Yucheng still spoke openly about this matter.

Because this matter…

Anyone could guess it; it wasn’t some unspeakable secret or something that couldn’t see the light of day.

“Hahahahaha!!!”

Protector Han would not refuse such a great opportunity!

His loud laughter fell.

His spirited eyes fixed on Yang Yucheng, and he spoke again, “Having you, Yang Yucheng, as a Disciple, is truly a blessing bestowed upon me, your Revered Master, by the heavens.”

“Don’t worry!”

Protector Han narrowed his eyes, Killing Intent permeating them, emanating a murderous aura.

“Next, if anyone dares to obstruct your Disciple’s affairs! These official Elders of the Elder Hall, within the scope that I, your Revered Master, can handle, will absolutely not be shown any mercy!”

Under the temptation of being able to Breakthrough to the Spirit Master Sect Realm, Protector Han was willing to go all out, even if it meant offending people.

As long as he could Breakthrough and become stronger.

Those so-called enemies would only be left far behind him; it would be impossible for them to stand in the same world as him!

And if…

The Elders of the Spirit Sect Realm were already the rulers of Qingyun Grotto-Heaven, then the Spirit Master Sect Realm would be the true rulers of the Heavenly Soul Sect.

The temptation was undeniably great, which is why Protector Han, this convenient Revered Master, was so carried away.

“Then, Disciple, thanks Revered Master!”

Yang Yucheng cupped his hands again.

Their cooperation as Revered Master and Disciple was very smooth… Leaving this secluded courtyard, Yang Yucheng’s lips curved into a smile.

Thus.

The upper level was cleared, the middle level was cleared!

Next, it was his solo performance.

Now, Yang Yucheng doing business was no different from an imperial merchant in the previous dynasty; with the big tree and powerful backing behind him, what did he do?

No one dared to compete with him.

Methods others couldn’t use, he used; rules others had to follow, he didn’t!

As long as the profit was large enough, a few unsavory methods were just a trivial part.

The flaws did not obscure the virtues.

Yang Yucheng had never thought of being perfect, of making it so no one could find fault.

That would be too exhausting!

In this world, most things are like this: either black overwhelms white, or white overwhelms black.

As long as one can overwhelm the other, that’s enough!

Arriving at the Tianhun Chamber of Commerce again.

Yang Yucheng looked up, watching He Zimu quickly walk towards him.

“Do you know what I plan to do next?”

Yang Yucheng gave the other party a test, to see if He Zimu was smart.

He Zimu’s eyes darted around, brainstorming.

Don’t be fooled by the fact that he had been inside the Tianhun Chamber of Commerce; the matters between Yang Yucheng, Elder Three, and Luo Hongmei were now common knowledge in Qingyun City.

His, He Zimu’s, intelligence channels weren’t so bad as to be unaware, so he was no exception.

Therefore, Yang Yucheng’s words…

To him, naturally, held deep meaning.

“No matter what Steward Lord does, your Subordinate will absolutely follow to the death.”

“But, you’ll offend quite a few people, you know!”

Yang Yucheng smiled again, “Who knows, you might even die.”

“The opportunity is right in front of me; if your Subordinate doesn’t seize it, that would be a lifelong regret. If I lose my life, there’s always next life!”

“But someone like Steward Yang, to encounter him again, would be incredibly difficult. That is why your Subordinate is willing to follow Lord!”

He Zimu lowered his head and spoke respectfully.

Yang Yucheng was particularly satisfied with his answer.

“Work hard! Next, you’ll be busy!”

Yang Yucheng patted He Zimu’s shoulder.

At this moment, although he didn’t say much, He Zimu already felt the heavy mission weighing on him.

He had to go all out to even possibly keep up with Yang Yucheng’s pace.

Even though his strength was one major Realm and two minor Realms higher than Yang Yucheng’s, firmly in the Mid-stage Spirit Venerable Realm.

But Yang Yucheng’s aura just gave people this kind of feeling.

A Spirit Venerable Realm unable to keep up with a Spirit Emperor Realm, it sounds ridiculous.

But such a magical thing had turned into reality, and he wasn’t the only Spirit Venerable Realm, was he?

Even Protector Han, a Spirit Sect Realm, wasn’t he the same at this moment?

He was even at the Late Stage of the Spirit Sect Realm cultivation; it was truly a rare sight!

...Instead of returning to the Dragon Lair Treasure Land, Yang Yucheng left Qingyun City and went directly to his destination—

The famous!

Steward Hall!
