"This can indeed temporarily relieve the urgent need, but these small chambers of commerce have limited profits after all, and the profits we can get are not much!" said the second elder.
Xia Houyuan closed his eyes and thought for a while.
"Let's operate it temporarily. At least we can maintain a state of no loss. Since the two chambers of commerce are bullying my Xiahou family, then we can open our own chamber of commerce to compete with them!"
"This... might cost us all our wealth. After all, these two chambers of commerce have been established for many years and have strong financial resources. We are afraid that we cannot compete!" the third elder said with a worried look on his face.
"Then come up with a useful method!" Xia Houyuan glared at a few people. The five elders looked at each other. What can they do for the time being?
Seeing that the five people were acting dumb again, Xia Houyuan was a little irritated and waved his hand.
"Go and deal with it, Tingfeng Tower, cooperate with the small chamber of commerce, and we will open the chamber of commerce ourselves at the same time!" The five elders did not say anything and all left the hall.
"First Elder, there is something wrong with this matter. How can we possibly compete with those two companies when we open a chamber of commerce?" the fourth elder said as he walked.
"Yes, the head of the family is probably old and confused!" the fifth elder whispered. The great elder shook his head,
"What can I do? I'm not the head of the family. I can't be the head. Just obey your orders!"... After Liu Wei finished practicing in the mountains, he went to Wuji Sect and spent a lot of effort. See Yan Ruyu.
Today, Yan Ruyu has already become the goddess in the minds of all Wuji Sect disciples. When they saw Liu Wei and Yan Ruyu together, many people had a hostile attitude towards Liu Wei, which made Liu Wei a little bit sick!
When you stay with your wife and face hostility from countless people, who can you ask for explanation? A few days later, Liu Wei and Yan Ruyu separated and left Wuji Zong.
The time he had agreed to meet with Xiao Waner was approaching, so he took the Wanbao Chamber of Commerce's teleportation array and went to Ice and Snow City again.
After waiting under the mountain gate of Bingpo Sect for half a day, Xiao Waner came down from the mountain as expected, and it was the beautiful woman at that time who personally delivered her to Liu Wei.
When Xiao Waner saw Liu Wei, she rushed over and threw herself into Liu Wei's arms. After the two said goodbye to the great elder, they went directly to Ice and Snow City.
Today, Xiao Waner, due to her special physique, has reached the Sky Realm in just two months in the Ice Soul Sect.
Moreover, Xiao Waner and Zhao Linger, Xiao Waner was accepted as a true disciple by the sect master, and Zhao Linger was accepted as a direct disciple by the Great Elder.
Zhao Ling'er's character was a bit cowardly and submissive. The leader of the Bingpo Sect was not very satisfied, so he did not accept him as his true disciple.
Xiao Waner was not only smart, but also had a lively personality, so she was attracted by the sect master at a glance.
Because of this matter, Zhao Ling'er was depressed for many days. After Xiao Waner's persuasion and guidance, Zhao Ling'er slowly let go of her unhappiness.
However, after all, because of this matter, Zhao Linger had some grudges in her heart, and she rarely took the initiative to talk to Xiao Waner on weekdays. Most of the time, Xiao Waner took the initiative to chat with Zhao Linger to relieve her boredom.
A few days later, Liu Wei sent Xiao Waner back to the Ice Soul Sect. After sending Xiao Waner back, Liu Wei took the teleportation array directly towards Xuanjian City in the northernmost part of Beihuang Prefecture.
He was planning to join the Xuanjian Sect. After all, there was no one to teach him some more advanced knowledge of swordsmanship. He could only explore slowly by himself. Not to mention the problem of wasting time, it was easy to get sidetracked.
You can't do things behind closed doors, you have to learn from those sects that have been passed down for hundreds of thousands of years. He didn't know when the sword spirit of the killing sword in his dantian would wake up.
If the sword spirit wakes up, it can teach him a lot of sword knowledge, and it can also be of great help!
After changing teleportation arrays several times, Liu Wei finally arrived at Xuanjian City two days later. This Xuanjian City is an affiliated city of Xuanjian Sect, and it is also the largest and most important affiliated city of Xuanjian Sect.
A considerable part of Xuanjian Sect's income comes from Xuanjian City. The magnificence of Xuanjian City was almost the same as, or even greater than, the Wuji City he had seen. It was considered the largest city he had seen in the Tianwu Continent so far.
Xuanjian Sect is located on a mountain top a hundred miles outside Xuanjian City. Liu Wei came out of the teleportation array, and after inquiring about it, he headed directly towards Xuanjian Sect with his sword.
Only half a quarter of an hour later, Liu Wei had arrived at the foot of the Xuanjian Sect. As soon as Liu Wei reached the foot of the mountain, he could already feel the formation.
The entire mountaintop of Xuanjian Sect was wrapped in a formation. It was not a protective shield, but a sword formation.
Liu Wei knew that if he dared to break in without permission, he would definitely be stabbed into a hornet's nest by this sword array.
Just when he didn't know how to enter the Xuanjian Sect, a snoring sound came from not far away. Liu Wei followed the sound and saw a slovenly old man sleeping soundly on a rock not far away.
Liu Wei walked over, but the old man didn't respond at all. He was still sleeping, holding a wine gourd in his arms.
"Senior!" Liu Wei shouted. The old man grunted, turned over and continued to sleep. Liu Wei shook his head and shouted louder: "Senior!"
"Huh? Who is it?" The old man sat up suddenly and looked at Liu Wei in front of him. The old man looked at Liu Wei, and Liu Wei looked at the old man, and they stared at each other with big eyes and small eyes.
"Boy, are you from the inner courtyard or the outer courtyard? Why are you disturbing my sleep?" The old man looked at Liu Wei for a while and asked.
Liu Wei raised his fist towards the old man.
"Senior, I'm not a disciple of the Xuanjian Sect yet. I'm here to join the Xuanjian Sect!" The old man immediately blew his beard and glared.
"Do you think that Xuanjian Sect is run by your family, and you can join whenever you want? Now Xuanjian Sect does not accept disciples, come back in two years!" After the old man finished speaking, he waved his hand and continued to lie down to sleep.
"Senior, look again, if you don't accept me, it will be Xuanjian Sect's biggest loss, and you will be Xuanjian Sect's eternal sinner!" Liu Wei said with a serious face.
The old man sat up suddenly, as if he couldn't believe it.
"What the hell? How can you be so shameless?" Liu Wei pointed at himself,
"Senior, I'm serious, look at me again, carefully!" The old man stared at Liu Wei for a while,
"It's worthless. It's all about physical fitness but no physique, and it's all about cultivation but no cultivation!" Liu Wei's face suddenly turned as black as the bottom of a pot, and he said loudly: "I am the Great Sword Master, a sixteen-year-old Great Sword Master!" The old man looked at Liu guard,
"Master of the Great Sword, are you very proud? The handyman disciples of my Xuanjian Sect all have a lot of Masters of the Great Sword!" However, the old man still felt guilty after saying that. It seems that no one in the Xuanjian Sect has reached the level of the Master of the Great Sword at the age of sixteen. He didn't reach the level of Great Sword Master until he was twenty years old.
This time, Liu Wei didn't believe it. He looked at the old man sideways and said,
"Old man, keep blowing, I'll watch you blow quietly!"
"If you don't believe me, I'm going to sleep. Get out of here!" the old man cursed.
"Old man, I have a sword body that is rare to see in ten thousand years. Are you sure you don't want to accept it?" Liu Wei looked at the old man and asked proudly.
The old man stroked his beard, looked at Liu Wei, and said with a serious face: "It seems that it is really a shameless body!"
"How about it? Can I be the direct disciple of the master of Xuanjian Sect?" Liu Wei had a look of expectation on his face.
The old man shook his head,
"Xuanjian Sect accepts sword cultivators, not cheap cultivators, so you shouldn't have a chance!" Liu Wei was stunned and became furious.
"Old man, I've tolerated you for a long time, let me tell you!"
"Come on, chop me, chop here!" The old man pointed to his head. Liu Wei immediately lost his temper. He was joking. He couldn't feel any breath from this old man. He must be a super boss. If he were to chop him, wouldn't he be courting death?
"Senior, do I really have no chance to enter Xuanjian Sect now?" Liu Wei looked at the old man and asked.
"It's not like there's no chance. During the non-recruitment period, if anyone wants to join, they can break into the sword formation of our sect!" the old man said.
Liu Wei's face lit up with joy,
"Where is the sword formation? I want to break through the sword formation!"
"Don't worry, let me make it clear to you first. This sword formation is real. If you can't break through, you will be killed in it! So you have to think carefully about whether to break through?" The old man looked at Liu Wei and said seriously. .
"Breaking through, you must break through! Can you enter the Xuanjian Sect after you break through?" Liu Wei waved his hand.
"There are a total of three sword formations in this formation. If you pass the first one, you can become an outer disciple. If you pass the second, you can become an inner disciple. If you pass the third, you can become a direct disciple. But if you pass the third, you can become an inner disciple. , the elders or peak masters of the inner sect have to choose on their own, if no one likes you, you can only be an ordinary inner sect disciple!" the old man said.
"I know, you can always start the battle and watch me show off my power!" Liu Wei had a confident smile on his face.
The old man nodded and pointed at a stone pillar not far away. The stone pillar immediately lit up with a curtain of light.
"Go ahead, break through any sword formation inside, and you can choose to continue or quit!" the old man pointed at the stone pillar.
Liu Wei touched the ground with his toes and took a step forward. As soon as his feet landed on the stone pillar, he disappeared on the stone pillar. Liu Wei felt that his eyes were blurred and he was in a strange place.
He looked around and saw that it was all gray except for the three light pillars not far in front of him. The light pillars went from small to large.
Liu Wei directly entered the nearest and smallest light pillar. His eyes blurred again, and after Liu Wei stood still, he was in a room, and in the room, there were three swords floating in the air, three high-grade flying swords of the Mysterious Order.
The next moment, three flying swords shot towards Liu Wei. Liu Wei held the green bamboo sword in his hand. When the three swords came closer, he slashed with the sword.
Ding ding ding! Three crisp sounds came in a row, and the three swords fell. Liu Wei shook his head. The speed of these three flying swords was acceptable, but their power was average, and there was no sword intention in them.
After the three swords fell to the ground, there was a moment of silence and then they all appeared in their original positions, floating quietly. Liu Wei thought that the three swords were going to attack again, but as a result, he suddenly appeared in the same place where he had just entered.
when! A clear bell rang in the sky above the Xuanjian Sect's mountain gate.
