"Perhaps soone deduced it by noticing the instant disappearance of our rit points from the rit List?" Min Longyu offered as a slight consolation.
However!
Luo Chen and Wang Yuan both shook their heads in response.
At that ti, everyone’s attention was fixed on the opening of the Divine Transformation Relics.
If it hadn’t been for Ling Yuzhi recognizing Chu Kui, they wouldn’t have been found by her so quickly.
Moreover, it was clearly a mont when a ceasefire was about to be declared.
Many affiliated forces were squandering their accumulated rit points extravagantly, exchanging them for whatever they needed.
The exchange of rits for the Luo Tian Creed, though a bit conspicuous, was only slightly out of the ordinary among the various powers.
This problem was, for now, unresolved.
Luo Chen clapped his hands, "Let’s go, back to Danxia Peak. Next ti we encounter a tough enemy, let know earlier. It would be good to borrow these people to practice, to familiarize myself with the new fighting style."
Speaking of this, he smiled at Wang Yuan, "I’m kind of stealing your job."
Wang Yuan tugged at the corner of his mouth, unconcerned.
He was currently stuck at a bottleneck in his enlightennt of Power Transformation, and fighting alone was no longer very effective for him.
Years of accumulation had brought him to the Completion Stage of Hidden Power and even a glimpse into the realm of Power Transformation.
But now, his accumulation was exhausted, and what he needed was to build up his foundation anew.
His current focus, in fact, was on "The Flow of All Things" that Luo Chen had given him.
If he could integrate its essentials into his own thod of Body Refinent, perhaps he could achieve Power Transformation Completion and make a breakthrough into Pill Vigor!
As the three of them strode along, they soon passed through the forr Geng Family Clan domain.
Now, this plot of Spirit Land had long been leased by the Luo Tian Creed, becoming a Spirit Beast breeding base.
The main focus was on the breeding of silk-producing Spirit Beasts.
Over the years, under the administration of Sima Huiniang and Xu Huanzhen, they had expanded to include the breeding of so First Order Demon Beasts with high at yields.
Currently, the Spirit Beast Hall had beco one of the important sources of revenue for the Luo Tian Creed.
Luo Chen dispersed his Spirit Consciousness, taking a brief survey, and couldn’t help but reveal a look of satisfaction.
After passing the Spirit Beast breeding base, seeing Luo Chen continuing to walk with them, Min Longyu couldn’t contain his curiosity.
"President, are you going back to Danxia Peak today?"
"Hmm, later on, don’t make any noise about it. I’ll sneak in quietly," said Luo Chen, pausing for a mont with a slight upturn at the corner of his mouth, "and incidentally pick soone up after work."
Min Longyu’s expression stiffened slightly, sensing a faint hint of sourness.
...
"Why are you here?"
"To pick you up."
Sima Huiniang was startled, then imdiately asked, "Are you coming over to mine tonight?"
"It’s not impossible," replied Luo Chen casually, taking a seat. He gestured casually and pulled over a bamboo slip.
"It’s like you’re being overly reluctant," huffed Sima Huiniang, lowering her head to look at the intelligence on the desk, and said softly, "Wait a bit more. I’ll head back once I finish going through Su Xiaolin’s submitted intelligence."
"Sure, take your ti," Luo Chen nodded, his gaze falling onto the contents of the bamboo slips.
What was written was sothing Luo Chen was quite familiar with.
The business of elixirs!
After reading, Luo Chen’s brow furrowed.
"Zheng Tianfang from Rolling Dragon Ridge Zheng Family is dead, isn’t he? With only two Foundation Establishnt True Cultivators left in the Zheng Family, why haven’t we captured their market share these past few years?"
Sima Huiniang lifted her head and smoothed a strand of hair by her mouth.
"It’s not that simple. Lately, sothing’s off with the Zheng Family!"
"Hmm?"
Sima Huiniang’s expression beca more serious, "According to my previous plan, I intended to take advantage of the opportunity when the vassal forces under the various sects suffered heavy losses to annex so smaller forces and expand our business reach."
"At first, things went smoothly, especially with your and Chu Kui’s intelligence support. We even managed to take down the mineral material business overseen by Iron Sword Hall, together with Luosha District City."
Zuo Song, the Sect Leader of Iron Sword Hall, had fallen at the hands of Luo Chen!
This intelligence was locked inside the Divine Transformation Relics, and many were unaware of it.
Under Sima Huiniang’s leadership, the Luo Tian Creed secretly launched an annexation, catching the opposition off guard.
Without a leader, and with the cooperation of Luosha District Luo Family, the annexation process went very smoothly.
But, strangely enough, when it ca to the seemingly weaker Zheng Family, they hit a wall!
"According to Luo Tian Intelligence Net reports, a number of outside Foundation Establishnt True Cultivators have appeared within the Zheng Family, totaling at least five. Unless our Luo Tian Creed launches a major offensive, it will be difficult to eliminate them quietly."
A full-fledged attack was out of the question!
The two major Nascent Soul Ascendant Sects had only halted hostilities in secret, and the actual ceasefire agreent had not yet been reached.
In such circumstances, no affiliated force dared to attack the vassal forces under each sect’s command so openly.
It was just too sensitive!
To do such a thing had to be done quietly.
Moreover, it was best not to act alone. Cooperation with allies to share the pressure was an optimal approach.
Luo Chen was surprised, "A bunch of new Foundation Establishnt True Cultivators appeared? Strange!"
The Zheng Family’s elixir business was decent, but that was just it—decent.
Like the Luo Tian Creed initially, it could support the consumption of two or three Foundation Establishnt True Cultivators at most.
It simply couldn’t sustain more, and so hiring them as patron cultivators was naturally impossible.
The sudden appearance of so many people was sowhat peculiar.
While he pondered, urgent footsteps ca from outside the hall.
Sima Huiniang glanced at Luo Chen.
Luo Chen nodded, indicating there was neither need to avoid the matter nor to hide anything.
Soon after receiving permission, the person outside stepped in.
"President, from the cultivator we captured just now... President?"
Su Xiaolin was surprised to see Luo Chen and quickly perford a courtesy.
His presence here was unexpected yet sohow made sense.
Luo Chen nodded, "What intelligence did you get? Let’s hear it."
Su Xiaolin’s expression turned serious, "It’s about the Core Formation Secret Art! According to the Rogue Cultivator from beyond our domain, the news of our Luo Tian Creed redeeming four great secret techniques has been widely spread!"
Sima Huiniang’s expression changed slightly, her hand slapping onto the desk.
"Who did it?"
Luo Chen’s expression also darkened slightly as he stared at Su Xiaolin.
Feeling a great pressure under their gaze, Su Xiaolin managed to spit out two words with difficulty.
"Fla Alliance!"
