Chapter 219: Grand Opening, Cai Jiuyuan Arrives at the Scene
Time flew by, and soon it was the day of the grand opening for the Wu Clan Chamber of Commerce's branch in the Central Plains Domain. To build up momentum, Lu Ziqi had specifically contacted quite a few factions to attend.
Those factions also intended to see whether Diao Yuan Commerce or the Wu Clan Chamber of Commerce was stronger; after all, they might just witness history today.
"Chairman, the invited guests have mostly arrived. Do you think you should make your appearance now?"
At this moment, in the backstage of the Wu Clan Chamber of Commerce, the vice chairman selected by Lu Ziqi approached him and asked.
Hearing this, Lu Ziqi nodded. All he needed to do was bring out the things currently developed by the Wu Clan Chamber of Commerce and give a speech to launch them. As for the stores, base stations, and such, they had long been constructed; once they were launched here, they could immediately go on sale.
However, before going out, Lu Ziqi's expression couldn't help but turn solemn. He took a deep breath to suppress the unease in his heart.
He was gambling—gambling that the Wu Clan Chamber of Commerce would send someone over. After all, if his guess was correct, Diao Yuan Commerce would definitely send people to cause trouble today. With his cultivation, dealing with Cai Jiuyuan was naturally not a problem, but there was Lu Guan behind Diao Yuan Commerce.
The other party was an Immortal King Early Stage expert who could crush him to death with a flick of a finger. Of course, Lu Ziqi did not know that Cai Jiuyuan had already broken through to the Peak, otherwise, he would not have entertained the thought of being able to deal with Cai Jiuyuan.
Soon, Lu Ziqi walked to the center of the stage, meeting the gazes of the various faction leaders of the Central Plains Domain, and then began his speech.
At the beginning, when the leaders of the various factions in the Central Plains Domain heard Lu Ziqi's words and saw the Mobile Phone he brought out, their expressions were extremely solemn. Initially, they had scoffed, but now, thinking about it carefully, if this kind of thing were released, it would definitely have a huge impact on the entire Central Plains Domain, the Southern Domain, and even the Upper Realm.
For example, most Cultivation Techniques in the cultivation world were printed as text in scrolls, but if products like the Mobile Phone were released, then Cultivation Techniques could be uploaded to the internet, allowing everyone to see them.
Although Lu Ziqi said that viewing Cultivation Techniques on the Mobile Phone would require paying a certain amount of Spirit Stones or immortal crystals, it would definitely have a great impact on ancient cultivation.
During these five hours of the speech, Lu Ziqi also successively released the products sold by the Wu Clan Chamber of Commerce one by one. Of course, the Wu Clan Chamber of Commerce would also release things like Medicinal Pills, talismans, and portable Formations.
In short, the Wu Clan Chamber of Commerce had everything other chambers of commerce sold, and it also sold things that other chambers of commerce did not.
"Starting from today, the Wu Clan Chamber of Commerce branches in every city of the Central Plains Domain will open one after another. Everyone is welcome to visit."
Lu Ziqi took a deep breath. Just as the guests present were about to clap and applaud, they saw a figure stand up, and the hands that were intended for applause were lowered.
The ones who stood up were none other than Cai Jiuyuan and the vice chairman of Diao Yuan Commerce.
Cai Jiuyuan and the vice chairman of Diao Yuan Commerce were clapping, their faces wearing sneers as they looked at Lu Ziqi and said.
"Lu Ziqi, long time no see. It seems you have found a new backer? What, do you intend to come back for revenge? Or are you seeking death?"
When saying the latter part, Cai Jiuyuan's tone was filled with killing intent. Clearly, there was an unknown past between him and Lu Ziqi.
When Lu Ziqi saw Cai Jiuyuan, his gaze also became incomparably cold. If looks could kill, Cai Jiuyuan would have long been obliterated by Lu Ziqi.
"Cai Jiuyuan, you aren't dead yet, so I definitely have to come back for revenge."
"Hmph, revenge? Just based on you? Or the Wu Clan Chamber of Commerce behind you? Also, there is one thing I haven't told you yet, and that is that your Dao Companion was very moist!"
Cai Jiuyuan's tone was extremely sinister, and his eyes were full of playfulness as he looked at Lu Ziqi, as if this alone could break Lu Ziqi's heart.
In Lu Ziqi's heart, his already deceased Dao Companion was his untouchable reverse scale. Sure enough, as Cai Jiuyuan's words fell, Lu Ziqi could no longer hold back.
"Cai Jiuyuan, you are seeking death!"
After saying this, the next second, a long sword appeared in Lu Ziqi's hand, and he charged at Cai Jiuyuan with the sword.
As for the surrounding guests, after seeing this scene, they very sensibly moved away, fearing that they would be caught in the aftermath of the two fighting. After all, both of them were existences at the Grand Unity Golden Immortal level, and many of the guests present were at the Golden Immortal Realm, so they naturally could not withstand it.
Seeing Lu Ziqi charging at him, Cai Jiuyuan's face was full of sneers; Lu Ziqi's intention was exactly what he wanted.
It just so happened that he could take this opportunity to test the strength of the Wu Clan Chamber of Commerce behind Lu Ziqi. If the Wu Clan Chamber of Commerce held him accountable, he could just say that Lu Ziqi attacked first and he was only forced to fight back.
In the next second, Lu Ziqi arrived in front of Cai Jiuyuan. Seeing this, Cai Jiuyuan was unhurried; he just struck with one palm, knocking away Lu Ziqi's long sword, and before Lu Ziqi could react, he struck again with another palm towards Lu Ziqi.
"What!"
Lu Ziqi felt Cai Jiuyuan's Qi, and his expression was full of disbelief. Seeing this, he could only extend his hands to block this palm strike from Cai Jiuyuan.
Because it was a test, Cai Jiuyuan did not use a lethal strike, and Lu Ziqi only suffered a minor injury.
"What, you actually broke through to the Peak?"
Feeling Cai Jiuyuan's Qi, Lu Ziqi's expression gradually turned ugly. If Cai Jiuyuan had broken through to the Peak, did he still have a chance for revenge?
Although it was only one small Realm higher than his own, the difference in strength was earth-shattering and could not be compared at all—unless one was a cheater.
"Is it strange? After all, I am so hardworking, and with enough resources, breaking through to the Peak is not a difficult task. As for you, you actually dared to oppose me on my own turf, so go to hell!"
After the previous test, Cai Jiuyuan also began to believe that the Wu Clan Chamber of Commerce behind Lu Ziqi had no intention of protecting Lu Ziqi. Since that was the case, he did not need to be wary anymore.
And with his cultivation at the Peak, it was time for his mortal enemy, Lu Ziqi, to hit the road.
After all, as long as Lu Ziqi was not dead, he would not be able to sleep peacefully for a single day.
At this moment, after Lu Ziqi learned that Cai Jiuyuan had broken through to the Peak, his heart gradually became desperate. Previously, he had the confidence because Lu Guan, the master of the Central Plains Domain, would not interfere in their struggle, and he was in the same Realm as Cai Jiuyuan, so if he couldn't win, he could at least run away.
But now that Cai Jiuyuan had surpassed him, he wouldn't be able to escape even if he wanted to. What he was hoping for now was that the Wu Clan Chamber of Commerce would send someone over and be able to protect him.
