The final statement Sikong Tu made was extremely harsh.
It was clearly a deliberate jab at the Infinite Commerce.
Intermediate healing potions were in oversupply, and Sikong Tu threw out the possibility of the Qiankun Commerce also auctioning. As long as the Infinite Commerce dares to host auctions, they would immediately follow up and seize their business.
This ruthless scheme directly hit the soft spot of the Infinite Commerce.
Unless, the Infinite Commerce can fight back with something more heavenly than healing potions.
"Ha ha, at this auction, the Martial Emperor made a killing, more than a billion spirit stones. It would take quite a while for my Qiankun Commerce to earn that," Sikong Tu said right after the auction ended and went to see Chu Yuan. He arranged for someone to settle the earnings from the auction.
Seeing the downcast appearance of the Infinite Commerce, his mood climbed significantly.
"Great Master also earned quite a bit this time," Chu Yuan said indifferently.
"I didn't earn much from the auction, but I stole a lot of business from the Infinite Commerce. Many followed, and they previously used all sorts of means to suppress my Qiankun Commerce. This time, being able to suppress them feels very satisfying," Sikong Tu said with a smile.
"Great Master, I need a batch of inscribed defense metal for armor. The more the better, money is not the problem," Chu Yuan said.
The so-called inscribed defense metals are metals imprinted with layer upon layer of defense marks, which enhances the metal's defense.
Dawu didn't have that many formation masters, so Chu Yuan planned to have Qiankun Commerce do it.
"If you want a lot of inscribed metals, the reward needed is not small. However, since you made so much today, you probably wouldn't care about this. We will assign someone to handle it immediately, striving to deliver the first batch of goods to you as soon as possible," Sikong Tu said without hesitation.
"Then I'll have to trouble Qiankun Commerce," Chu Yuan said with a light nod.
"Great Master, the King of Dachang requests an audience, seems like he also wants to meet the Martial Emperor," Chai Ning said.
"The King of Dachang is here," Sikong Tu said, his expression changing slightly. He asked, "Will your majesty meet the King of Dachang?"
"Let him in." Chu Yuan said.
Soon, the King of Dachang entered. His gaze, at the peak of God Ten, converged on Chu Yuan, and he said in a loud voice, "Haha, this must be the Martial Emperor, the ruler of Dawu. Seeing you today, you are even more martial than the rumors. My injury that has tormented me for hundreds of years, if not for your majesty, I'm afraid I could only wait for death."
Although Qiankun Commerce didn't say that the healing potion was provided by Chu Yuan, any intelligent person would know that the recent Spirit Rice and various divine elixirs were from Dawu, and there must be a connection.
This time he spent a hundred million spirit stones saving his life, earning himself a huge profit.
"The King of Dachang spent spirit stones, and I provided the potion. A fair trade." Chu Yuan didn't deny it.
"A good fair trade," the King of Dachang said with a smile. "I have another big trade here. That is, I need to order a large amount of Spirit Rice from the Martial Emperor and settle the bill with spirit stones. How about it?"
"Naturally, that is good. I will have Qiankun Commerce prioritize the order for the Dachang Dynasty," Chu Yuan said.
"Although just a courtier, he draws on the Crown Prince's name to act overbearingly. Yet, because he is under the Crown Prince's command, hardly anyone dares offend him."
"This time, he seems to have met a tough adversary."
People who recognized Elder Guo began to comment.
"The Head of the Forbidden Army, Dawu," Zhu Fengfeng said.
"So you're just a leader. I thought you were some important figure. Have your emperor come out and accept this invitation"
The old man glanced at a eunuch next to him, contemptuously saying, "Eunuch Ning, read out the Crown Prince's invitation."
Although he is merely a courtier in the Prince's palace, he has seen many important figures due to his proximity to the Prince.
"It is said that the Emperor of Dawu is extraordinary. Our Palace has heard of him. Hence, I specially set up a banquet in the Imperial Palace and invited Emperor Dawu to visit."
The invitation is simple - it requests Chu Yuan to visit the Imperial Palace.
While it is only a short sentence, it carries a terrifying majesty representing the Provincial Imperial Dynasty's national destiny, making it difficult to resist.
Reading out the invitation, Eunuch Ning says in a self-important air: "Accept this invitation quickly. Your delay makes the Crown Prince wait. Being invited by us to the Imperial Palace is an honor many seek. Yet, you're acting defiantly. The Crown Prince's status is much more prestigious than your Dawu Emperor."
"The Crown Prince personally sends this invitation, inviting Emperor Dawu to the Imperial Palace. Should the Emperor go or not?"
The King of Dachang looked at Chu Yuan who was calm in the room and inquired, "Although the Crown Prince is still only the designated sovereign of the hovering Imperial Dynasty, rumors circulate that he is comprehending the Supreme God Position Path. His cultivation level is comparable to mine. Ordinarily, not many could receive his invitation."
[Option One: Accept the Invitation: Go to the Imperial Palace, earn 300 Destiny Points, Great Shield Technique x1. ]
[Option Two: Decline the Invitation: Do not meet with the Crown Prince, do not visit the Imperial Palace, earn 300 Destiny Points, concurrently receive 3000 Divinity Abilities x1.]
"I too am the sovereign of a kingdom. Hundreds of billions within my dynasty aren't someone the Prince can summon on a whim."
Chu Yuan said indifferently, "If he really wanted to see me, he would have personally come to the Universe Commerce Association, rather than simply sending an invitation. If I attended, it would make a mockery, a debasement of one's self. If this were to get out to my kingdom, how would my people perceive it?"
"But..." the King of Dachang said.
"That prince is merely showing off his power. If I were to go, it would be meaningless - he would just be coveting what I have. If they want to see me, even the prince himself must secure my interest and willingness to meet."
Chu Yuan's calm voice echoed, "I am the emperor, and if I decree that no one is to be seen, nobody will be admitted."
Zhu Fengfeng coldly watched this group blocking the entrance, "Take back your invitation. Seeing the Emperor is not as effortless as you think. Even your prince must consider the Emperor's mood."
ps: The book will be on the shelf tomorrow at noon. Post updates will begin at 2 pm, it is estimated that fifteen more will explode. I initially wanted to write a sentimental speech and garner some sympathy, but reconsidered it - it's better to let the exploding texts speak for themselves. I hope everyone can subscribe and support then, thank you.
