Chapter 156 Iron Heart Crisis
"Ah - excuse me, sir, what crime did my brother Li commit?"
Zhong Sanyuan patted his forehead and shook his head repeatedly, as if he was really annoyed by his behavior just now.
"It's not a big deal. It's just that his two senior brothers owed a lot of money in the casino and then ran away," Leng Ningshuang's eyes were clear and she spoke immediately. Li Yanmo couldn't help but cough heavily, his face full of surprise.
Big sister? Is there such a plot?
Feng Ling and Hong Muer were so angry that they were shocked when they saw Li Yanmo's unbelievable expression.
Zhong Sanyuan hurriedly asked what was going on, and Hong Muer told him what happened with an unhappy look on her face.
Dao Hai and Leng Ningshuang, the parties involved, nodded.
"Scum."
"He's just scum."
"This is really... I wonder how many spirit stones Brother Li's two fellow disciples owe him?" Zhong Sanyuan was also angry about Li Yanmo's experience, but he was relieved at the same time.
Although Tianxu Tower is neutral, the matter of Emperor Lie has obviously shaken Dayu's foundation.
If the Dayu Dynasty knew that the tomb of Emperor Lie had long become the base camp of Tianxu Tower in Jingzhou to recruit idle monks, it would surely be furious and take action. This is a development that the super sect absolutely does not want to see.
Fortunately, the Dayu Dynasty did not seem to notice this.
"Not much, 20 million low-grade spirit stones."
Xuan Lingzi and other disciples' eyes twitched.
Although Jingzhou is rich, it does not regard spirit stones as dirt. Twenty million low-grade spirit stones is not a small number.
Zhong Sanyuan and other geniuses from super sects raised their eyebrows, "Only 20 million spirit stones? Here are 200,000 high-quality spirit stones. Please hand them over to the casino."
Zhong Sanyuan raised his hand and threw a ring to Leng Ningshuang.
Seeing this, Li Yanmo was horrified, "Fellow Daoist Zhong, you absolutely cannot do this——"
"Oh - why call me fellow Taoist? That's too much. It's just 200,000 high-quality spirit stones," Zhong Sanyuan waved his hand. His inhuman face made Li Yanmo feel numb.
"I didn't expect you guys are so rich," Leng Ningshuang put the ring in her pocket and sneered, "But I have some private matters with this Mr. Li. If you guys have nothing to hide, you shouldn't mind me following you."
Zhong Sanyuan narrowed his eyes slightly and glanced at Zhuge Moer who was standing beside Li Yanmo without leaving a trace. "If you don't mind, of course you can."
"Hmph - sorry to bother you then."
Leng Ningshuang sneered, walked to the side, and leaned against a pillar with her arms folded across her chest.
As for Dao Hai, he just stood there with a smile on his face, and it was obvious that he couldn't be driven away.
Zhong Sanyuan was somewhat helpless, "Brother Li, since your two fellow disciples have already left, what are your plans for the future?"
"This... Actually, I promised Tiexin Chamber of Commerce to help them obtain the qualification for the medicine pool. The time is almost up, so I plan to rush to Yaozong next."
Xuan Lingzi and other disciples of Tianxiao Sect nodded thoughtfully, but the geniuses of the super sects tilted their heads.
"Medicine pool? Isn't that the wastewater pool where Medicine Sect makes pills?"
It really is a wastewater pool!
Li Yanmo had mixed feelings, but he still started to explain, "I have some connection with the Tiexin Chamber of Commerce, so I plan to help them."
Hong Muer raised her eyebrows, "Wait... could that Tiexin Chamber of Commerce be the Tiexin Chamber of Commerce in Ganzhou?"
The Tianyin Demon Sect was responsible for the negotiations between Ganzhou and the Dayu Dynasty, so as the next generation saint, Hong Muer heard a lot about Ganzhou, including the part about the Tiexin Chamber of Commerce.
"Ahem - that is, the Ironheart Chamber of Commerce."
Li Yanmo coughed and his eyes flickered.
This reaction successfully made Zhong Sanyuan and others think of Tianxu Tower.
The emergence of Tianxu Tower attracted the attention of many sects, but Ganzhou had become the focus of the Dayu Dynasty because of the incident of Risheng City. In order to prevent being bitten again by the Dayu Dynasty and to avoid exposing the existence of Tianxu Tower, many sects chose to wait and see, and many sects chose to contact Tianxu Tower by stealing the truth.
Tiexin Chamber of Commerce is the best option.
"Hahaha - since it's fate, we really have to cherish it. How about this, we have nothing to do, so let's go with you, Brother Li. Maybe we can help."
Seeing that Zhong Sanyuan and others were so enthusiastic, Li Yanmo couldn't refuse.
"Then I'll trouble you all."
“Hahahaha—no trouble, no trouble.”
Zhong Sanyuan raised his hand and stroked the sky. The thick clouds were parted, and a huge ship exuding precious aura fell down.
Hong Muer crossed her arms across her chest, "Why are you so low-key?"
"Ms. Hong, the master has told us not to show off our wealth."
Li Yanmo had no expression on his face.
Such an outrageous thing is actually called being low-key, or not showing off one's wealth?
…
Topaz City.
Tie Xiaoyan, who was handling official business, received shocking bad news.
"Master Hua...what did you say? The battle for the medicine pool has been brought forward!?"
Hua Youquan nodded grimly, "If we set off now, we can still make it in time."
The quota for the medicine pool is related to the future of the entire Tiexin Chamber of Commerce. Now, Yao Zong has not only arbitrarily advanced the time of the medicine pool dispute, but also advanced it by a lot, without any intention of negotiation.
But their Tiexin Chamber of Commerce is, after all, just a chamber of commerce from a small state, and has no roots in Jingzhou, not to mention that the other party is the Medicine Sect.
You know, cultivators have a huge demand for elixirs, even far greater than their demand for magic weapons, so alchemists have a very high status among cultivators. The Medicine Sect is not only the only medicine-making sect in Jingzhou, but also has a super sect medicine tower behind it. No one can help them.
Tie Xiaoyan bit her lip, clenched her fists tightly, stared at the account book in front of her for a long time before she let out a breath like she was sobbing and turned her face away.
"Master Hua, tell everyone to pack up and go to Medicine Sect. No matter what the cost, we must get a spot in the medicine pool!"
Hua Youquan raised his hand, wanting to dissuade him, but in the end he sighed helplessly.
"Even if I risk my life, I will fight for a place for Tiexin Chamber of Commerce. If Mr. Li can get to Yaozong in time... maybe there will be a turnaround."
When she heard Li Yanmo's words, Tie Xiaoyan's eyes lit up slightly, but it soon faded away and she shook her head helplessly.
Tie Xiaoyan is not a fool. Many people need a place in the medicine pool, so the time for competing for a place in the medicine pool has always been fixed and has never changed.
Now that it has suddenly been brought forward, there must be someone behind this.
Those who can command the Medicine Sect in Jingzhou are mostly first-rate sects in Jingzhou.
Li Yanmo is indeed both intelligent and brave, and has the confidence to challenge opponents of higher levels, but he is like an ant in front of a first-rate sect.
Now Tie Xiaoyan actually hopes that Li Yanmo cannot arrive at Yaozong in time. Li Yanmo doesn't owe Tiexin Chamber of Commerce anything, and even has a favor to Tiexin Chamber of Commerce. She doesn't want this to affect Li Yanmo's future in Jingzhou.
