"Election Day Battle, Estimated Island Losses..."
"Due to the passage of sea monsters, nearly three thousand islands have lost contact, and no one has been dispatched to investigate yet."
"In addition, the assets of the Tokyo, Kyushu, Senryu, and Raiyun merchant guilds on Hanhai Island were confiscated..."
"Eight low-grade spirit treasure flying boats and five mid-grade ones, along with various supplies, are currently docked at the alliance warehouse on the island."
...
Li Fengling rattled off some statistics, then looked at Ye Feng.
Sitting below was Yan Shi, whom Han Li had confronted before, and Lang Yong Zhenjun, who was being given a ride.
However, Qianhuan is still in slumber, and Ye Feng is his true form, so they probably wouldn't recognize him.
As for whether it will affect the Qingyun Sect... once the gap reaches a certain level, it becomes difficult for people to make such connections.
Now Ye Feng needs to consider whether to accept the offer from this chamber of commerce or not.
Acquiring trading points requires many shops.
However, it only works if someone with full loyalty takes over.
These are the renowned sages...
When Fengling Zhenjun fled for his life, no one came out when Cheng Tianyang died. Now, to ask them to truly submit is nothing short of wishful thinking.
Moreover, with the Han Hai Fortress taken away and so many Yuan Nascent Soul cultivators killed, the East Sea Alliance has essentially lost more than half of its strength.
Right now, it's mostly a mess...
"You really want me to be the president?"
Upon hearing Ye Feng's words, everyone exchanged bewildered glances. Li Fengling stood up and said...
"Invincible True Monarch is a core authority of the Star Soul Hall. Since the previously elected president has fled, this position should naturally be succeeded by President Wang!"
"That's right, I saw the Star Soul Hall's artifact spirit say it with my own eyes: the guild leader is a core authority user and is forbidden from being attacked!"
Shan Yu Zhenjun Yan Liang rose and echoed him.
Everyone else nodded in agreement.
Ye Feng glanced sideways at Yan Liang, who was speaking.
Is this old Deng afraid I won't know he's betrayed us?
"Then tell me, what is my role as president, and what am I capable of doing?"
this...
Ye Feng's question once again stumped everyone.
The guild leader's greatest authority is the Star Soul Hall, but now...
"If the president has any ideas, he just needs to give us the order to carry them out. As long as it's not sending us to our deaths, we'll do anything..."
Li Fengling's voice trailed off, and the others couldn't help but sigh.
"As long as the guild leader can guard the East Sea and prevent us from being devoured by the demon race and the upper sects... I pray on behalf of the tens of millions of low-level cultivators in the East Sea that the Invincible True Lord can serve as the guild leader of the East Sea Chamber of Commerce Alliance..."
Moral blackmail?
I'm not buying this.
However, this scope of permissions really appealed to Ye Feng!
The system's exchange rate is now at least one high-grade spirit stone, making the method of making money by dumping low-grade spirit materials completely ineffective.
To obtain trading points, you need high-level items and shop turnover...
Having such a large workforce would undoubtedly be extremely helpful for opening a shop.
With a system that allows for shop teleportation, the presence or absence of a Star Soul Hall becomes less important.
The only problem is that the shop must be managed by a completely loyal person before the teleportation function can be enabled...
"I'll give you an answer about this in two days!"
After seeing everyone off, Ye Feng was about to ask Feng Ling Zhenjun for something when she told him that the representative of the upper sect was already waiting outside.
This country's leader has really had a lot going on!
Representative of the Upper Sect?
Could it be that Sword Spirit Child has also arrived? The core of the formation is now under Yang Xueling's control; Ye Feng couldn't help but look at her.
Yang Xueling's expression remained unchanged, showing no reaction whatsoever.
From the moment she entered, she stood next to Ye Feng without saying a word or finding a place to sit, just like a bodyguard.
"Since you've come from the upper sect, please sit next to me, Mother-in-law!"
Yang Xueling hesitated for a moment, then shook her head.
"Now that the Hunyuan Sect has been expelled... I'd better leave!"
"No way! They're all shrewd old folks, what if I get tricked?"
Ye Feng grabbed Yang Xueling, who was about to break free, but stopped when she heard this.
Seeing Ye Feng's pleading look, she could only sigh and nod.
Invincible True Monarch... Ye Feng's current cultivation level is enough to make people forget his age.
Because no one can stop him from doing whatever he wants.
And he's so bold...and meticulous.
But he advanced too quickly, and his age is a factor, which is indeed a fact.
Phoenix Spirit True Monarch quickly led everyone in.
It was both unexpected and not unexpected that only six people came; Jian Lingzi, Fengmo Zhenjun, and Youhunzong did not send any representatives.
"Greetings, Invincible True Lord!"
"Greetings, Fellow Daoist Wang!"
"President Wang!"
Of the six, two were Golden Core cultivators, who addressed him as Invincible True Monarch; the others were either Fellow Daoist Wang or President Wang.
Ye Feng sat upright, unmoved in any direction, and pointed with his finger.
"Please be seated, everyone!"
When everyone sat down, they greeted Yang Xueling; they all seemed to be old acquaintances.
The greeting, however, was either tinged with sympathy or rather, lukewarm.
If those three sects were to come, there might be some who would mock and ridicule them.
"My dear mother-in-law, please introduce me to these fellow practitioners!"
Yang Xueling glanced at him with some surprise.
Aside from the two Golden Core cultivators from Wuji Palace and Chunyang Palace, most of these people had already been introduced to him in the private room.
Unexpectedly, Ye Feng is now asking her to repeat herself.
"This is True Person Dongyu of Chunyang Palace! True Person Dongyu is the third Holy Son of Chunyang Palace..."
Since they represent the sect, they cannot be underestimated based on their cultivation level.
Moreover, Yang Xueling had also said that among the ten great sects, the Pure Yang Palace and the Wuji Hall were actually the most mysterious and powerful.
It is very likely that there is more than one Nascent Soul cultivator in the sect.
"Fellow Daoist Dongyu!"
This time, Ye Feng rose and greeted him with Daoist etiquette.
Master Dongyu also returned the courtesy.
Ye Feng's previously arrogant image in everyone's eyes was instantly overturned.
"Master Leng Feng of the Wuji Palace..."
"Yue Qun, the Righteous True Lord of the Purple Cloud Sect"
"Zhang Shan, the Iron Mountain True Lord of the Yin Corpse Sect"
"Xu Zhenyang, True Lord of Yang Fire of the Dan Ding Sect"
When introducing the last person, Yang Xueling's tone became noticeably more solemn.
"This is Meng Liandie, the sect leader of the Hehuan Sect, also known as True Lord Dielian!"
"Greetings, True Lord Butterfly Lotus!"
Butterfly Lotus True Monarch covered his mouth and chuckled.
"Invincible True Monarch is truly a remarkable person... Could the song he requested at the auction that day have been Fellow Daoist Wang?"
With a light laugh from True Monarch Butterfly Lotus, the somewhat formal and somber atmosphere in the venue instantly lightened.
In Ye Feng's eyes, what stood before him wasn't a fully clothed woman, but a group of naked...
Of course, Yang Xueling had instructed Ye Feng in the private room that he absolutely would not show any embarrassing behavior... He just secretly swallowed.
"Hehe... Sect Master Meng is joking."
This wasn't because True Monarch Butterfly Lotus intentionally cast a spell, but rather because her very constitution naturally possessed a seductive charm.
Such an effect can be achieved simply by speaking.
The others were used to it, while the two real people closed their eyes early on.
Despite having the lowest combat strength, the Hehuan Sect still manages to secure a place among the sects.
It's no exaggeration to say that it has earned such a reputation!
What followed was rather tedious and boring.
This refers to situations where production decreases or increases, necessitating a readjustment of prices.
Something is urgently needed and requires large-scale planting...
Most matters had already been discussed and agreed upon by the upper sect. The only things that needed to be communicated with the merchant alliance were the special products of the Northern Barbarians and the East Sea, as well as the issue of transshipment in between.
Li Fengling was right next to him, and Ye Feng directly authorized her to handle everything.
Without the Vast Ocean Fortress, Li Fengling was somewhat constrained in negotiating the price... and the negotiations even stalled.
"As for the issue of cargo transportation, you don't need to worry. I will set up teleportation arrays in your respective sects. In the future, all supplies will only be transported faster and the goods will be fresher. There will be no other problems!"
