Chapter 2013: I Don’t Like Being Pointed At!
"Actually, the situation in the Cangxuan Territory is much more complex than outside. Besides a few special places, the outside world is mainly controlled by several Ancient Countries, each overseeing numerous Dynasties and empires."
An Ruyan said:
"But the Cangxuan Territory is different. It’s divided into five-grade forces, with First Grade being the highest and Fifth Grade the lowest."
"What grade does your Yuntong Commerce Guild belong to?"
Su Chen asked curiously.
"Fifth Grade."
An Ruyan replied casually.
"Only Fifth Grade?"
Su Chen was a bit surprised upon hearing this. In the outside world, Yuntong Commerce Guild was considered a massive entity, but in the Cangxuan Territory, it was merely Fifth Grade, which was quite unexpected for him.
"Don’t underestimate Fifth Grade; even Fifth Grade is not as simple as you think."
An Ruyan rolled her beautiful eyes at him:
"You should know, most sects in the Cangxuan Territory don’t even have a grade."
"No, no, I wouldn’t dare to underestimate."
Su Chen chuckled.
An Ruyan knew he didn’t understand the Cangxuan Territory, so she didn’t hold it against him and continued:
"These five-grade forces don’t encompass the entire Cangxuan Territory, because there are other races here."
"Other races?"
"Yes, races such as the War Clan, Spirit Clan, and Demon Clan exist here."
An Ruyan nodded:
"Although their numbers are not as many as the five-grade forces, their combat strength is far superior!"
Su Chen felt like a frog in a well upon hearing this; he realized there were too many things he didn’t understand!
Speaking of the Demon Clan, he immediately thought of that little girl, Ying. What he was most worried about was the demons within her.
According to the old master, if the demonic nature within her awakened, the consequences would be unimaginable!
"By the way, now that we’re in the Cangxuan Territory, you might have a chance to find those friends of yours."
An Ruyan said:
"Because my capabilities in the Cangxuan Territory are limited, I can’t cover many places, and there are internal conflicts within Yuntong Commerce Guild, so for their safety, I’ve only arranged for a few trusted people to search discreetly."
"I hope so."
Su Chen nodded understandingly. He fully understood An Ruyan’s approach.
As she said, Yuntong Commerce Guild was merely a Fifth Grade force, and An Ruyan wasn’t the sole authority there, so she naturally had to be cautious.
Moreover, according to An Ruyan, the Cangxuan Territory was incredibly vast, far beyond his imagination.
Afterwards, An Ruyan introduced some aspects of the Cangxuan Territory to Su Chen, and he got a rough idea.
"We’re here."
At that moment, seeing a misty scene ahead, An Ruyan’s eyes lit up.
Su Chen also noticed it; the void here seemed to be covered by tens of thousands of formations, making it impossible to forcibly break through!
Below, there was a boundary monument guarded by several people.
An Ruyan took out a token and raised it high, immediately causing countless rays of light to cast onto the token.
At the same time, it seemed a passage appeared.
"Only forces with a grade can enter from above using the Cangxuan Order."
An Ruyan explained to Su Chen:
"Others can only pass through beneath the boundary monument."
With those words, she controlled the flying beast to enter the passage. Inside, both Su Chen and An Ruyan, along with the flying beast, seemed to slide through wrapped in colorful surroundings.
A few breaths later, it felt like a new world appeared.
The sky became bluer, the Yuan Qi richer, mountains taller, vegetation more lush!
"Su Chen, two things."
An Ruyan suddenly said solemnly:
"First, if you have the chance, it’s best to join a force with a grade."
"Second, don’t cause trouble; here, if you can’t control yourself, you won’t even know how you die!"
She didn’t suggest Su Chen join Yuntong Commerce Guild because she knew Su Chen was not inclined; after all, Yuntong Commerce Guild wasn’t purely a martial arts force.
Although its strength was considerable, commerce was its main focus.
Indeed, concerning Yuntong Commerce Guild, Su Chen preferred to be in a cooperative relationship.
As for controlling himself, Su Chen could only smile and say:
"I’ll try."
"By the way, since you’re in the Cangxuan Territory, regarding the elixir, go to the headquarters to discuss."
An Ruyan said.
"Alright."
Su Chen nodded.
After flying over several tall mountains, they saw a city not far away.
"The real headquarters of our Yuntong Commerce Guild is in this city."
An Ruyan pointed at the city.
For a flying beast at the First Turn of the Creation Realm, it quickly reached the destination.
A while later, An Ruyan controlled the flying beast to land in front of an architectural complex.
The building had gray exterior walls, not considered luxurious, but it occupied a large area.
"This place doesn’t sell goods; it’s mainly where the guild handles various major matters."
An Ruyan introduced to Su Chen:
"We arrived at the perfect time; today is the guild’s quarterly meeting, so several senior members should be present."
An Ruyan handed her flying beast to a guard at the entrance and headed inside.
Su Chen nodded in acknowledgment, following behind An Ruyan.
However, just as they crossed a courtyard and prepared to continue, a young man appeared ahead.
Seeing An Ruyan and Su Chen, he said immediately:
"An Ruyan, what place is this? How dare you bring someone casually."
"Whom I bring here doesn’t concern you, Yang Yi."
An Ruyan didn’t show a friendly face to the person.
Yang Yi sneered:
"I can’t intervene, but the guild’s rules can. According to the rules, unrelated individuals are strictly prohibited in the headquarters!"
"Who’s saying he’s unrelated."
An Ruyan snorted coldly:
"He’s here to discuss an important collaboration with the guild!"
"Hahaha~~~"
Yang Yi laughed loudly:
"An Ruyan, you’re joking, right?"
"This guy, negotiate with our Yuntong Commerce Guild? Important cooperation?"
In Yang Yi’s view, this guy dressed so ordinarily, his cultivation not even at the Great Supreme Realm, was unworthy of crossing their guild’s gates!
More importantly, this one was brought by An Ruyan!
His father and An Ruyan’s father were sworn rivals within the Yuntong Commerce Guild!
"Whether it’s important cooperation, I’ll report, and naturally, it will be known."
An Ruyan didn’t want to waste time with him, so she led Su Chen straight inside.
"An Ruyan, you can go inside, but this guy can’t!"
Yang Yi blocked Su Chen’s path, pointing at him.
"I don’t like being pointed at!"
At that moment, Su Chen frowned slightly.
