Chapter 3921 A Large Reward

Jing Buyun’s expression darkened as he watched the Ba Xian Chamber of Commerce members surround him, and his Aura surged.

“Sun Mangong? Do you dare represent the Ba Xian Chamber of Commerce? Are you trying to start a war with my Cang Hai Chamber of Commerce?”

Sun Mangong was actually somewhat afraid of Jing Buyun in his heart, but now hatred had blinded his eyes, and he couldn’t worry about much else.

“I’m going to kill that kid, and whoever blocks me, I’ll kill them!”

“Whoever blocks you, you’ll kill them, haha, do you have that ability? Do you really think you can do whatever you want just because you have more people? Do you really think my Cang Hai Chamber of Commerce is afraid of you?”

As soon as Jing Buyun finished speaking, more than a dozen figures sped from the direction of the city gate; they were all Peak Immortal Venerable experts.

The leader was a white-haired old man with a powerful Aura, no weaker than Min Zeshi.

He quickly came before Jing Buyun: “This old servant greets Young Master.”

It was clear that these were all people from the Cang Hai Chamber of Commerce; Jing Buyun had already sent a message back the moment he saw Sun Mangong, and these were the reinforcements.

“Rise.”

Jing Buyun waved his hand; the person before him was Jing Liang, the old butler of the Cang Hai Chamber of Commerce.

“Uncle Liang, if the people from the Ba Xian Chamber of Commerce attack us, then we’ll fight them. My Cang Hai Chamber of Commerce fears no one here.”

After speaking, he took Ye Bufan’s hand: “Brother Ye, let’s go.”

After that, everyone swaggered towards the city gate, not even glancing at the people from the Ba Xian Chamber of Commerce.

“You…”

Sun Mangong was so angry that fire shot from his eyes, and he raised his hand, ready to order his subordinates to start a fight, but Min Zeshi grabbed his arm.

“Young Master, please calm your anger and think twice!”

He was very clear about the situation; the Cang Hai Chamber of Commerce’s strength was in no way weaker than the Ba Xian Chamber of Commerce’s. Once a war started, the consequences would be unimaginable.

If President Sun Aozong blamed him, he simply wouldn’t be able to bear it.

Although Sun Mangong was a scoundrel, he wasn’t a fool; he could still distinguish between important and unimportant matters.

He took a deep breath, suppressed the anger in his heart, and glared fiercely at Jing Buyun’s retreating back.

“Jing Buyun, I’ll remember this debt today.”

“Heh heh, I already said it, you’re not even worthy to be my opponent.”

Jing Buyun didn’t even turn his head, taking Ye Bufan and entering Lieyuan City.

The dozen or so people from the Cang Hai Chamber of Commerce brought up the rear, and seeing that the Ba Xian Chamber of Commerce didn’t make a move, they also retreated.

“Jing Buyun, Ye, just you wait, I won’t let you go.”

Sun Mangong roared in anger, like a wounded Yao Beast, but he ultimately didn’t dare to make a move.

He hadn’t had the courage to act just now, and now that the person had entered Lieyuan City, he had even less courage.

Although the Ba Xian Chamber of Commerce was one of the four great chambers of commerce, they dared not violate the rules here in the slightest, not even his father, Sun Aozong.

“Alright, Young Master, there’s no need to get angry over such a small fry.”

Min Zeshi breathed a sigh of relief, seeing that no fight had broken out.

He waved his hand at the people behind him: “You all keep an eye on Ye and see when he leaves the city. Report to the Young Master immediately if there’s any news.”

His subordinates agreed and followed him into the city.

Min Zeshi advised again: “Young Master, a gentleman’s revenge is not too late in ten years. It’s easy to kill Ye; Jing Buyun can’t protect him forever. We’ll act as soon as we have an opportunity.”

“That’s right, let’s go back.”

Sun Mangong knew that this was the only way, and he entered Lieyuan City, huffing with anger.

Upon entering Lieyuan City, Ye Bufan cupped his hands to Jing Buyun: “Brother Jing, thank you for your help.”

In his heart, he was indeed extremely grateful to Jing Buyun. Although with his own strength, he wouldn’t have suffered a loss against the Ba Xian Chamber of Commerce just now, and might even have been able to completely defeat them.

But what kind of place was this? This was Lieyuan City, where there were countless Immortal Emperor-level experts.

Once they were alerted, it could very well lead to disaster.

Therefore, Jing Buyun stepping forward and using the prestige of the Cang Hai Chamber of Commerce to block Sun Mangong was the best outcome for him.

“We’re brothers, no need to be so polite.”

Jing Buyun waved his hand dismissively, “Brother Ye, hurry and follow me. Let’s quickly go treat Lan Qi’er’s illness.”

It was clear that he hadn’t taken the recent events to heart; he was more concerned about Lan Qi’er.

Ye Bufan didn’t say much either, leading his group to follow behind, observing the situation within Lieyuan City as they walked.

Ever since entering the city gate, a rich Spiritual Qi had rushed towards them, much richer than outside.

There were many Immortals coming and going within the city, including Immortal Venerables, Immortal Lords, and some lower Rank Immortals.

He hadn’t seen any Immortal Emperors, which was normal to think about; experts of that Rank wouldn’t casually appear before everyone.

Immortal towers and shops stood in great numbers within the city, with buyers and sellers, making it exceptionally lively.

Under Jing Buyun’s lead, in a short time, they arrived before a luxurious mansion.

Here, to judge whether a mansion was luxurious or not, the architecture was secondary; the main factors were the richness of Spiritual Qi and the cultivation of the guards at the entrance.

This place was clearly very unusual; upon reaching the mansion gate, they immediately felt an even richer Spiritual Qi rushing from within.

And the guards standing at the gate were all Peak Immortal King experts, showing that the owner’s status and strength were absolutely extraordinary.

The wide mansion gate and luxurious lintel had two large characters written on them in a flowing Dragon and Phoenix script: “Lan Residence.”

The most conspicuous thing was a huge bounty poster affixed next to the mansion gate, just as Jing Buyun had said earlier; this was Lan Yuqing’s announcement seeking medical treatment for his daughter.

The content was very simple: whoever cured Lan Qi’er’s illness would immediately be rewarded with 20 million High Grade Immortal Crystals.

At the same time, there was a requirement: if unable to cure, a penalty of 20,000 would be charged.

A smile played at the corner of Ye Bufan’s mouth; he naturally understood the significance of this 20,000 penalty.

With the Lan Tian Chamber of Commerce offering such a heavy reward for medical treatment, it was inevitable that some people would be blinded by money, come over to join the fun, and try their luck.

So, these 20,000 High Grade Immortal Crystals were the threshold, keeping out those without ability.

As soon as he finished reading the poster, Jing Buyun walked over: “Brother Ye, don’t worry, if it doesn’t work out, these 20,000 High Grade Immortal Crystals will be on my tab.”

Ye Bufan, however, shook his head and smiled freely: “Don’t worry, I won’t need to pay this money.”

“That’s good!”

Seeing his confidence, Jing Buyun was also full of joy. He turned and walked to the gate, explaining their purpose.

The guards were not unfamiliar with the Young Master of the Cang Hai Chamber of Commerce. One of them immediately led them inside.

Soon, they were led to a quiet small courtyard. Dozens of doctors were sitting in the courtyard.

Some of these people looked worried, some eager to try, but no one spoke; there was complete silence.

As they just entered the courtyard, a door opened, and a middle-aged man who looked like a butler walked out, followed by a thin old man in a long robe.

The old man carried a medicine chest and was clearly a doctor, but his face was full of dejection, obviously having failed in his treatment.

However, he did not leave immediately but walked to the other side of the courtyard and found a seat there.

Seeing this scene, Ye Bufan immediately understood. Those who were dejected were the failures, while those next to them who were full of confidence were doctors who had not yet entered.

It seemed that heavy rewards indeed attracted brave men; even with the 20,000 Immortal Crystal threshold, there were still so many doctors coming to offer their services.
