“No wonder it’s been half a month since that battle, and the other Foundation Establishment forces have stayed still.”

“If they were as opportunistic as before, they would probably have long been coveting your Pill Refinement Technique, Luo Chen.”

Gu Caiyi suddenly realized, “Are they wary of your relationship with Yu Ding Sword Sect?”

“Yes!”

Luo Chen stopped walking, his eyes deep.

“But if they keep silent like this, sooner or later someone will not be able to holdback.”

“So, we must take the initiative.”

“As long as we can establish deep partnerships with a few families, they will not easily destroy the original cooperative relationships by then, whether they have backers or not.”

“And this token left to me by the Golden Core Ascendant Master is the best door-knocker!”

On the Lancang River, a large ship, a hundred meters long, was docked at the shore.

The raging river rushed towards it, hitting its surface, yet the big ship remained firm and unmovable.

Under the escort of Great Lake Gang cultivators, Luo Chen set foot on the deck.

A figure stood at the bow of the ship, facing the clear wind, without turning his head.

“This ship was made to order from Tian Fan City per my request, with the main material being the bones of a dragon whale, supplemented with a variety of water attribute demon beast materials.”

“Luo Chen, what do you think of this ship?”

Luo Chen walked up, step by step. With his insight, he could naturally perceive the ship’s grade.

“The grade is only lower, but its power can surpass the vast majority of Ascendant Grade Magic Tools.”

Wang Haichao turned his face to look at him.

“You have good eyesight indeed. It is because my Great Lake Gang has such a vessel that we can traverse the Lancang River and many other water areas dominated by Yu Ding.”

Luo Chen tugged at the corner of his mouth.

Isn’t this obvious?

Who has such a large lower grade Magic Tool?

Ordinary First Order Demon Beasts simply couldn’t cause any fundamental damage to it.

Perhaps realizing that such opening remarks had little significance,

Wang Haichao changed the topic: “To be honest, I was a bit surprised that you dared to meet me alone.”

After the battle in Crescent Valley, two Foundation Establishment True Cultivators rushed to the scene.

They were Wang Haichao and Elder Zhou of the Yun Merchant Alliance.

Their hasty arrival made their intentions very clear.

Nothing more than to seize the resources of the two Pill Halls and most importantly, to control Luo Chen.

Now that Luo Chen was taking the initiative to visit, how could he not be surprised?

Luo Chen chuckled and casually pulled out that small sword magic tool.

“What is this?” Wang Haichao was puzzled.

“It’s Elder Pang’s token, haven’t you seen it before?”

Luo Chen looked at him with an ambiguous smile.

Wang Haichao’s face changed slightly, but he was still puzzled.

Luo Chen didn’t bother about him and put the small sword magic tool back into his storage bag.

Leaning on the railing, he stated straightforwardly, “My visit is basically to resume our cooperation and stabilize the Wan Jade business.”

“Gang Master Wang, how do you feel about this?”

Wang Haichao frowned, avoiding discussion about this business.

“It seems that your relationship with the Yu Ding Sword Sect is not shallow!”

“So let me ask you, why hasn’t the Yu Ding Sword Sect returned after such a big incident happened in The Great River District?”

Luo Chen’s face remained unchanged, and he calmly replied: “Those who should come back will always come back. You don’t think the Yu Ding Sword Sect, would be indifferent to the loss of a Golden Core Elder and two Foundation Establishment True Cultivators, do you?”

Hearing this, Wang Haichao raised an eyebrow.

No Sect would ignore the fall of a Golden Core.

Especially when people conspired to ambush, even destroying a large market.

“Gang Master Wang, you must understand one thing. The Great Sect is not like our small families. They have a lot to consider, so it’s normal for them to move a little slower.”

“Just like when the Foundation Establishment Cultivator at Ailao Mountain died, the Yu Ding Sword Sect waited for more than half a year before handling this matter.”

“Given the level of attention they’re paying, directly dispatching a Golden Core Cultivator, you can see that when they do act, they strike like thunder.”

“The same logic applies, the tragedy in The Great River District is ten to a hundred times worse than the Fei Bowen case!”

“When the time comes, what arrives may not be as simple as a Golden Core Ascendant Master.”

After finishing his speech, Luo Chen paused for a moment.

Looking at the wide river where birds were catching fish, he suddenly smiled.

“Originally, I should be accompanying Elder Pang and Steward Miao back to the Yu Ding Sword Sect.”

“But due to unforeseen circumstances, I can only stay behind.”

“When the cultivators from Yu Ding Sword Sect return, I will tell them everything that has happened here.”

“Hmm, including the movements of the local forces at the time, as well as their future plans.”

A sense of dread settled in the heart of Wang Haichao.

“Are you threatening me?”

Luo Chen quickly shook his head, “This junior would not dare!”

“I just want to do business with you, to prosper together, that’s all.”

“Besides, you are not the only one doing Wan Jade business in The Great River District. Yet, I specifically came to you because of our previous successful collaborations.”

“Gang Master Wang, this junior holds great respect for you.”

The expression on Wang Haichao’s face gradually softened.

Luo Chen’s words had reassured him.

In fact, during this time, all of the Foundation Establishment True Cultivators in The Great River District had already met several times.

They were all speculating about the reaction of the Yu Ding Sword Sect and the possible coming accountability.

Having Luo Chen, someone who has a deep relationship with the Sword Sect, he saw a lot of room for maneuver.

“It’s just a Wan Jade business, I agree.”

“So everything stays the same?”

“As before!”

“In that case, this Junior will take his leave. The follow-up matters will be handled by my subordinates.”

After a polite bow, Luo Chen calmly left.

Standing on the deck, Wang Haichao’s eyes followed his retreating figure.

Until Luo Chen disappeared into the crowd.

Back in the protection of Zhou Yuanli and others, Luo Chen finally let out a sigh of relief.

Unknown to him, his back was covered in cold sweat.

Indeed, dealing with Foundation Establishment Cultivators was too dangerous.

Without the token of trust from Pang Renxiong, many things could not be put on the table.

“I have negotiated with the Great Lake Gang, I still have to visit a few other families.”

“Once I have taken care of these matters, I will truly be able to concentrate on pill refinement and cultivation, and focus on reaching the Finalization of Qi Refinement Stage!”

“I hope, everything goes smoothly!”

Luo Chen sighed softly.

He was a character inclined to stability, whether it’s in his previous life or now, it was the same.

However, many things did not always go according to one’s will.

Initially, he only planned on refining some Allure Pills to satisfy his own cultivation needs, but he ended up being forcibly appointed as the master of the Pill Hall by Mi Shuhua.

Then he thought, since it had come to this, relying on the Broken Mountain Gang to refine pills and gain proficiency, reaping benefits along the way, could also be a path of cultivation.

But Mi Shuhua returned seriously injured from an exploration of a relic site, breaking his peaceful days.

He planned to run away with a bucket of money before leaving, but the siege of the five major forces changed everything.

Alright, if the Broken Mountain Gang is gone, then it’s gone.

With Miao Wen, the Foundation Establishment Cultivator of the Sect present, his stage could still be bigger.

However, even before Miao Wen could enjoy the first month’s dividends, Luo Chen was already coveted by Pang Renxong.

Of course, the fact that Pang Renxong was besieged and killed was also beyond Luo Chen’s expectation.

He had packed up his belongings at that time, had made his farewells to his friends, and even the small force that he had hand-picked, Luo Tian Creed, had arranged for various follow-ups.

As a result, all his plans had come to naught.

“Still, none of those who wanted to use me ended well.”

“However, I’m tired of feeling powerless.”

“Even though it has come, it won’t let me settle down!”

As Luo Chen walked down the reconstructed Qingjiang Street, he looked at the coming and going rogue cultivators. Their faces did not bear the sadness of the destruction of The Great River District’s Inner City; instead, they were hopeful about the future.

Without the Yu Ding Sword Pavilion, without the Sect Shop, it didn’t seem to be that tragic?

The local major powers were still purchasing resources collected by various rogue cultivators, and the prices offered were even higher than before.

Mutual exchanges and the frequent operation of the black market were more vibrant than before.

“How can a peaceful cultivation be so easy.”

“Only by striving, only by trying hard, only by fighting, can there be a chance for surviving in The Great Dao Path.”

Luo Chen stopped pinning his hopes on “hope”.

Taking advantage of this vacuum period when the Great River District lacked a Sect Cultivator, he must seize the opportunity to create a space for himself!
