Chapter 1181 The Worship of Various Sects
The following day, Shu Tongbo announced that the Beidou Chamber of Commerce had officially joined the Tang Clan and become its affiliated chamber of commerce.
The news caused a complete uproar throughout the Soul World.
By the time they realized it, the Tang Clan's sphere of influence had already placed it among the strongest sects.
Meanwhile, Duan Lingshan, from the Black Duke Merchant Guild in the Star Luo Empire, also received an urgent report from her subordinates.
Inside the study, Duan Lingshan held the note in her hand, her heart unable to calm down for a long time.
After a long while, she finally spoke softly, "I had already advised Pei Zhen, but unfortunately they wouldn't listen, and in the end they've reaped what they sowed."
"It's just a pity about the Beidou Chamber of Commerce; was it really going to be swallowed up by the Tang Clan like this?"
At this point, Duan Lingshan still hasn't been able to adapt to her current identity.
He went from being the vice president of a large guild to a lone Soul Master in the blink of an eye, and even the merchant guild behind him was merged into another force.
"President Duan, since the Beidou Chamber of Commerce is no longer in existence, why don't you stay with our Black Knight Chamber of Commerce?"
"We will definitely not skimp on the benefits that Pei Zhen promised you back then, and we might even offer more."
Inside the study, another person was standing behind the table, writing words and phrases with a flourish of a brush.
This is a man with skin so fair that it would make any woman jealous.
This person was dressed in white, and exuded an extraordinary aura.
The painting on the table depicts mountains and flowing water, with birds and deer faintly appearing in the forest, creating a unique artistic conception.
"President Yuan, this matter happened so suddenly. May I give you a reply later?"
"Right now, I just want to gather some concrete information about the Beidou Chamber of Commerce being acquired!"
Duan Lingshan took a deep breath and spoke to the man in front of her.
The person referred to as Chairman Yuan is none other than Yuan Yi, the vice president of the Black Knight Chamber of Commerce and the number two figure in the entire Black Knight Chamber of Commerce.
A level 95 Title Douluo, whose title is Baihao, and whose martial soul is Baihao Ink Brush.
As for the honorary president of the Black Duke Chamber of Commerce, he is the Star Luo Empire royal nobleman who was granted the title of Duke of Black Flame.
The Black Flame Duke's status and position were even higher than those of the White Tiger Duke.
He controlled a large area east of the Star Luo Empire and was considered one of the major contributors to the founding of the Star Luo Empire.
As for the Black Flame Duke's strength, some say he is level 97, while others say...
"I see!"
"Then you should rest well in this manor for a while. I will send experts from Blackwing to help you gather information."
"Of course, if you want to go north to seek revenge, I won't stop you."
"But I must warn you, the expert who can easily kill Pei Zhen is definitely not someone you can handle."
Yuan Yi stopped what he was doing, glanced at Duan Lingshan, and spoke up to remind her.
Upon hearing this, Duan Lingshan's body tensed instinctively, and her fists slowly clenched together, but then she relaxed, her hands hanging down naturally.
Duan Lingshan replied, "Don't worry, I wouldn't do something so foolish!"
"The end of the Beidou Chamber of Commerce is its fate, and although I am the vice president, I understand the reasons behind it."
"I'm tired, I'm going home now!"
Duan Lingshan left after saying those words, then turned and kicked the door open.
The study quickly fell silent again, with only the faint smoke rising from the incense burner lingering in the air.
"Sir, we have received the news!"
"The reason why the Tang Sect has been able to absorb several sects so quickly this time is because of the return of Tang Lan, the sect leader of the Tang Sect."
"Moreover, this person is accompanied by several powerful soul beasts that are over 300,000 years old. Title Douluos are almost powerless against them."
A man in black suddenly appeared at the window.
After the man in black finished speaking, seeing that Yuan Yi did not respond, he slowly disappeared.
And these are the members of Blackwing, an extremely mysterious team within the Black Duke Merchant Guild.
Rumor has it that Blackwing's spies are practically everywhere on the continent, and there are even many members of the Black Duke Merchant Guild on the Sun and Moon Continent.
"Just how many powerful soul beasts are there, far exceeding 300,000 years old?"
"What an interesting fellow! I'd love to see what he's capable of!"
As Yuan Yi spoke, his aura surged at a visible speed.
If anyone were here right now, they would be shocked to discover that Yuan Yi was not at level 95 at all, but had clearly broken through to level 96.
Meanwhile, at the Tianque Sect's headquarters, many forces had already dispatched elders and sect leaders to the area.
These people, each holding a carefully prepared gift, were lined up outside in a long queue.
This place has all sorts of high-ranking members from various sects and chambers of commerce.
The Tang Clan's actions in recent days have been causing these forces great anxiety.
In order to avoid being attacked by the Tang Clan, they chose to take the initiative to discuss future matters with the Tang Clan.
Some sects have even prepared to become affiliated sects of the Tang Sect. As long as the demands are reasonable, everything is negotiable.
"Sect Leader Tang is inside. You may go in!"
Sha Ran stood outside the main hall, scanning the people around her, before slowly opening the door.
The fact that one titled Douluo after another could open the door made the representatives of various forces even more solemn.
Inside the reception hall, Tang Lan was sitting in the seat of honor.
Tang Ya and the other girls stood behind Tang Lan, while I, Lingling, held a colorful crystal ball in my hand.
Everyone present was secretly shocked when they saw this item.
Five-colored crystals are extremely rare; there are probably no more than ten in the entire Soul Master world.
The wearer can even increase their affinity for the attributes and powers of all species in the world.
These benefits might be unimaginable to others, but for the fire elemental spirit Lingling, they are utterly useless.
Tang Lan gave this thing to Lingling simply because Lingling thought it was pretty, so Tang Lan gave it to Lingling as a toy.
If the people below knew this, they would probably be so frustrated they'd vomit blood.
Such a treasure is something everyone in the world would want, but I never expected that someone would treat it as a child's toy.
"Lan Hai Sect Vice Sect Master Shu Yao pays respects to Sect Master Tang!"
"Chen Jian, President of the Iron Hands Merchant Guild, pays respects to Sect Master Tang!"
"Huang Ju, Sect Master of the Fire Control Sect, pays respects to Sect Master Tang."
In an instant, the dozen or so people below bowed to Tang Lan.
Without exception, all of these people were experts above level 85, and more than half of them were even titled Douluo.
However, most of them are low-level titled Douluo, ranging from level 90 to 92.
"May I ask what brings you all here today?"
Tang Lan took a sip of tea, slowly put the teacup down, and smiled at the crowd below.
These words caused the faces of the leaders of more than a dozen factions to stiffen. (End of Chapter)
