Ji Ziyue's face darkened, and she coldly shouted:

"The Divine Spring belongs to my Yuanbao Merchant Guild and the City Lord's Mansion. Anyone who dares to covet it will be killed without mercy!"

As soon as he finished speaking, all the worshippers of the Yuanbao Chamber of Commerce stood guard beside the divine spring, their auras locked onto the Nascent Soul Realm experts in the void.

However, even with hundreds of Nascent Soul Realm experts joining forces, the Yuanbao Merchant Guild was unable to defeat them.

The gray-robed old man said in a deep voice:

"I don't have many years left to live anyway, so I might as well fight to the death. Even if I only get a drop of the divine spring, I can immediately break through my shackles and become a Mahayana cultivator!"

"That's right! We've been stuck in the Integration Realm for countless years, with no hope of reaching the Great Ascension Realm in this lifetime. But the appearance of the Divine Spring has given us a glimmer of hope. If you were in our shoes, you would have tried to snatch it too!"

"President Ji, Lord City Lord, we do not wish to be your enemies, but the allure of the Divine Spring is too great, and we have no choice but to offend you!"

"You must leave this place immediately, or you will all perish if we start a massacre!"

"..."

A group of Nascent Soul Realm experts spoke up sternly.

If they weren't somewhat wary of the Yuanbao Merchant Guild and the Tianyuan Dynasty royal family, they would have already taken action.

Seeing this, Ji Ziyue spoke up:

"Gentlemen, the Divine Spring will be auctioned off soon. We can offer it to you first. What do you think?"

"Heh..." the gray-robed old man sneered.

"We're already in this state and you still want to fleece us? We've used up all the rare and precious materials for cultivation over the years, where would we get the money to auction off?"

I'm giving you only three breaths to retreat, or you'll be killed without mercy!

boom!

Hundreds of Nascent Soul Realm experts simultaneously unleashed powerful pressure, forcing Ji Ziyue and the others to leave.

At this moment, the leader of the Array Formation Association spoke:

"Fellow Daoists, I am the president of the Array Formation Association. Please give me some face and do not make things difficult for President Ji and the others."

"No one's face matters!"

The gray-robed old man roared:

"My patience is limited!"

Seeing that the other party was about to get serious, Ji Ziyue quickly looked at Ling Yun.

"Young Master Ling, please make a move!"

At the same time, Ji Ziyue mocked herself inwardly, always wanting to protect Ling Yun, but always it was Ling Yun who protected her side.

She never expected the allure of the divine spring to be so great, causing those people to risk offending the Yuanbao Merchant Guild.

Ling Yun nodded slightly, scanning the Nascent Soul Realm experts in the void.

Ji Ziyue thought Ling Yun would go on a killing spree, but to her surprise, he waved his hand and took out several hundred drops of spring water from the divine spring, injecting them into the bodies of the powerful beings.

Almost instantly, the death energy within the powerful beings was extinguished by the life energy contained in the divine spring, and at the same time, their blood energy surged continuously.

The cloudiness in my eyes gradually cleared.

"Gentlemen, there are still calamities to be faced. I am not a bloodthirsty person; you may all step back."

Ling Yun spoke in a deep voice, his tone leaving no room for doubt.

The powerful figures present were shaken and filled with fear upon hearing this.

However, having tasted the deliciousness of the divine spring, they were unwilling to give it up, and were struggling with whether to seize the divine spring or not.

From an endless, distant land, a weathered and majestic voice resounded in everyone's ears.

"You all must not start a conflict, step back!"

Upon hearing the sound, the experts at the Integration Realm instantly shrank their pupils to tiny size and retreated without saying a word.

Seeing this, everyone looked at each other, wondering who the speaker was.

Even someone as knowledgeable as Ji Ziyue didn't know the identity of the owner of that voice.

But nobody's thinking about that right now; everyone's busy with the Divine Spring.

Ji Ziyue, the city lord, the president of the Array Formation Association, and Ling Yun stood around the divine spring.

Ling Yun smiled and said:

"The Array Formation Society has been sitting here for thousands of years in order to break the array. Even if they have no merit, they have worked hard. I will take a step back and give 10% to the Array Formation Society."

Upon hearing this, the president of the Array Formation Association quickly clasped his hands in greeting and said:

"Thank you, young friend. The formation will always be with you."

The four then distributed the spiritual spring water.

A Bao and Shangguan Hong then captured those array masters and took them to Tianzhen City to run naked.

In the evening, Ji Ziyue hosted a banquet for everyone.

Ji Ziyue sat next to Ling Yun, raised her glass and said:

"Young Master Ling is truly my benefactor. Because of you, I have been promoted from the branch president of Zhao Kingdom to the branch president of Tianyuan Dynasty."

I have just received a new appointment and have been promoted to the Second Vice President of the General Association.

Thank you very much, Young Master Ling!

Ji Ziyue drank it all in one gulp. Her cheeks were flushed from the slight intoxication, and her beautiful eyes were fixed on Ling Yun.

His eyes were filled with intense admiration, and a hint of affection.

Since ancient times, heroes have loved beauties, and beauties have always admired heroes.

Ling Yun is impeccable in appearance, temperament and strength. Even a woman as outstanding as Ji Ziyue can't help but admire her.

"Cough cough~"

At this moment, Xiao Yanran and Yan Ruyu coughed loudly at the same time.

He was implying that Ji Ziyue's gaze had crossed a line.

Abao and Shangguan Hong whispered to each other:

"We're going to have another rich sister-in-law!"

“That’s right! The vice president of the Yuanbao Chamber of Commerce is a very important position. If she becomes our sister-in-law, then we can openly plunder the Yuanbao Chamber of Commerce.”

"Hey, Brother Shangguan, what a great idea! The Yuanbao Chamber of Commerce is incredibly wealthy, far surpassing the treasuries of those sects!"

"..."

The next moment!

Smack! Smack!

Xiao Yanran and Yan Ruyu simultaneously slapped each of them on the forehead.

Ji Ziyue withdrew her gaze, a fleeting look of embarrassment before she regained her strong, independent demeanor.

...

Late at night, in the luxurious villa provided by Ji Ziyue, Ling Yun prepared fifteen buckets filled with divine spring water.

"Brother~ This is too extravagant! Bathing in the divine spring, if word gets out, people will hate us to death!"
