On the Xiaotian River, Xiao Ye was riding on a cargo ship, looking at the surrounding... a lake. Although there were beautiful mountains and rivers, the deeper you went, the smaller and blurry the scenery became, until it finally looked like Hazy.
Mainly because Duanmu Xiao wanted to enjoy himself and ran out.
Otherwise, he would have flown directly over, and he would still be on top of this merchant ship, and he would have spent a lot of crystals. Forget it, it's okay if the other person is happy, as long as you don't hit him.
Although both of them were disguised, Xiao Ye still had to be careful, mainly because he was afraid of exposing Duanmu Xiao's existence.
Looking at the caravans one after another, Xiao Ye was also very puzzled.
There is such a thing as a space ring, why do you still need to transport it like this? Doesn't it expose your own things even more?
Finally, after some understanding, Xiao Ye finally understood what was going on.
Some valuable items are not safe no matter who they are on. Not afraid of being robbed, but afraid of being sold.
No one can guarantee that the people in their hands are loyal. In the face of huge interests, even relatives can betray, let alone a chamber of commerce. Therefore, watching under the eyes of everyone is naturally the safest way.
As for why the master didn't put it away, it was a kind of psychology, fearing that the people under his command would be coldhearted, and deliberately guarding against them. Who would dare to sacrifice their lives for such a master?
Secondly, it is to show one's financial strength.
After all, there are many contradictions and competitions between large and small chambers of commerce, which is to highlight themselves to others.
If you can't deal with someone who's too powerful, why don't you just disgust someone who's equal to yourself?
Finally, no matter how long it took, Xiao Ye and Duanmu Xiao finally came ashore. Only when we got ashore did we realize that the road leading to the sky is indeed quite big.
Compared to Chixiao Sect, it is much larger and quite lively. Most of the people here are residents living on the island.
But it would be a big mistake to really regard these residents as ordinary people. All the people here are monks.
Moreover, each of them has a good level of cultivation. Although the weak ones also have the Qi Entrainment Realm, but on the surface, more of them are in the Nascent Soul Realm and the Virtual Tribulation Realm. Presumably, the island owner here is not a fuel-efficient lamp. He can control the island here as a place for business transactions, and he at least has a giant-level cultivation.
Xiao Ye and Duanmu Xiao were strolling around here, feeling like they were in the country and doing as the Romans do. It's still the same as before, Duanmu Xiao goes his own way and buys whatever delicious food he sees. And Xiao Ye became the money bag, and the crystal stones continued to flow like tears.
I have to say, things here are really expensive...
When it comes to business, there are not many good things from businessmen, Xiao Ye murmured in his heart.
However, he is not a good person. He has golden eyes of vision and an encyclopedia with a keen eye like Duanmu Xiao. Everything here that he does not know the situation or the name of is all taken by Xiao Ye.
After that, Xiao Ye also relied on his sharp tongue to constantly bargain and buy the best things at the lowest price.
It's a pity... most of them are helpful to the soul, and Xiao Ye didn't ask for them, and gave them all to Duanmu Xiao.
Surprisingly, Duanmu Xiao didn't ask for it, and even said that for the sake of buying her delicious food, she gave it all to him. It seemed that everything was done intentionally.
Afterwards, Xiao Ye thought about his own technique and the big crocodile in it. He understood it and did not expose it. The other party also wanted to save face.
"Speaking of which, I don't know what kind of person this island owner is. People from the northern and southern continents can be said to be difficult to get along with each other. How can this island owner establish such a large-scale central trade center here? You are not afraid of being targeted by other big forces, and it seems that no one dares to cause trouble here." Duanmu Xiao said curiously.
"It seems that this path to reach the sky is not as powerful as your Scarlet Sky Sect. It is almost the same as a family. There can be one or two who can reach the sky in the sky."
Xiao Ye thought for a moment and said, "It should be some kind of interest relationship."
"There must be something here that many family forces and businessmen need and desire. This kind of thing binds all the businessmen who come here together, and everyone will be prosperous and everyone will suffer loss."
"If anyone dares to touch Lu Tongtian's interests, he will definitely be suppressed by many families."
"Although a lone wolf is weak, once there are more of them, the giant elephant will be defeated."
"Lu Tongtian. From the name, it seems that the so-called treasure land should be above the sky, but I don't know what it is?" Xiao Ye said suddenly, he was still very interested in this secret land of Lu Tongtian. , and happened to catch up with the beginning here.
Otherwise, even if this was a gathering place for merchants, there wouldn't be so many people there all at once.
"Let's take a look. I'll find out soon. Anyway, I still have some time, so let's take a walk here and experience the local customs." Duanmu Xiao ate the candied haws in his hand and wandered around again.
Seeing this scene, Xiao Ye couldn't help but smile... like a loving father and brother.
Mainly because Duanmu Xiao is not tall, and she looks sweet and like an elf. No one can help but like her.
Of course, Xiao Ye quickly threw away this idea and the expression on his face. If she saw this, she would be beaten again. Who would have thought that the Keren in front of her was a violent person? Crazy.
At the same time, Xiao Ye did not forget the two of the Jiuli Pots, and also gave them many things.
This is a place of commerce, and there are many types of monster blood, but it is a little expensive. If he didn't have some money, he really wouldn't be able to support this family.
The next day.
Xiao Ye was purchasing some necessary resources for cultivation here just like yesterday, especially the Tianyan Essence. He could still purchase some here.
Moreover, the price was high and the quantity was very small. Most of them were either auctioned or ordered by some weapon refiner forces.
After all, Tianyan essence is a must for refining spiritual treasures, and the price is not clear. If you need it, it will be expensive, if you don't, it will be cheap.
Duanmu Xiao did not continue to hang out. The time spent exposed to the outside yesterday was already a taboo. It would be very bad after a long time.
It's not that she's worried about being exposed, but because if she appears for too long and stays with Xiao Ye long enough, it's easy for someone to deduce Xiao Ye's destiny.
Some powerful monks are very afraid of the existence of people with special fates. For them, these people with special fates are doomed.
Once disaster occurs, when the time comes, they will either be killed or die because of it. Only a few people can escape the disaster.
This is the same as dealing with calamity. When encountering calamity, most people will take action to eliminate it. Even if you survive the calamity, you may not be able to survive the calamity completely.
As Xiao Ye's protector, she is naturally remembered.
Hiding among the Zhuxian Sword, Jiuli Pot, or other innate Taoist treasures, one can still avoid those deductions.
"Brother Xiao?"
Suddenly, Xiao Ye, who was still wandering around, was suddenly tapped on the shoulder from behind.
Maybe it was an instinctive reaction, so he immediately threw him over his shoulder. Everyone looked confused, what did they do, what happened?
With a plop, the person fell heavily to the ground.
Xiao Ye looked carefully and found that he looked very familiar. He recognized this person the next moment.
Mu Xuehua.
The second young master of Xingluo Chamber of Commerce, the younger brother of his cheap eldest sister, is also a female businessman.
He didn't have any interactions with this person, and he didn't even have a complete meeting. He almost forgot about this person, but he didn't expect to meet him here.
"It's you, Mu Xuehua." Xiao Ye said, and did not hide it anymore. The other party even called out his last name, so there was no point in hiding it.
Mu Xuehua
He stood up, waved to those who were obedient, and then said, "I didn't expect Brother Xiao to still remember me. I'm really honored."
"I remember, of course I remember. I vaguely remember that you pretended to be generous and lent me tens of millions of spiritual stones, and in the end, you even asked my father-in-law to come to me for it." Xiao Ye said with some yin and yang. .
Mu Xuehua's mouth also twitched, thinking you still remember this.
Besides, in the end, you didn’t give me the same thing. You really thought I didn’t know.
Besides, you made a lot of money back then, okay?
In the end, we found out that it was not a simple demon pill, it was probably a dragon ball, but we didn’t know what kind of dragon ball it was, but that was a huge loss.
I was scolded to death by my father, and yet you are still mentioning it here.
However, this person's status is extraordinary now, at least he is more noble than him. After all, he is the disciple of a giant from a large sect, and he is just the second young master of a large chamber of commerce. He is not on the same level at all, so he can only follow the other party.
"But, how did you recognize me?" Xiao Ye asked curiously. You can tell at a glance, can't you say it's because of my figure?
Mu Xuehua smiled and said, "I didn't recognize him, he was my brother."
"Your elder brother is here too?" Xiao Ye almost called out the word "sister".
Mu Xuehua shook his head and said, "My brother went somewhere else and didn't come back. It's my brother's identity tag."
"Our identity cards are all directly connected. As long as we reach a certain distance, we can sense it, and the space ring can't isolate it."
"His identity tag was only given to you, so I recognized him naturally."
Xiao Ye also understood. No wonder that woman sometimes caught her right away and her feelings were equipped with a locator.
"Brother Xiao, are you here to purchase?" Mu Xuehua said.
"No, I came here by chance. I heard that there seemed to be some kind of treasure on this road to the sky, so I came here to take a look." Xiao Ye said.
"Brother Xiao is talking about Sky Sea. This is indeed a treasure place." Mu Xuehua said.
