Chapter 552: 552
Upon entering the inn, everything was normal except that the crowd of nosey onlookers looked disappointed .
But the smart ones could sense a storm coming as Qing Zhou Chamber of Commerce would definitely pursue the matter .
"Family Head, someone is spying on us," Lu Bu reported to Bei Feng .
"It doesn't matter . If he dares to appear in front of us, he shall die . "
Legs crossed, Bei Feng sat in a pleasantly scented room as he explained the situation to Lu Bu with a fierce look in his eyes .
"Not only Qing Zhou Chamber of Commerce, but cultivators, too, have eyes on us . Details of our business deal with Dong Lin Chamber of Commerce have been revealed . "
Lu Bu was worried that having such an enormous amount of funds would attract too many opponents to handle .
"Dong Lin Chamber of Commerce…" Bei Feng mumbled as he frowned . One should not offend the powerful Dong Lin Chamber of Commerce now .
"I got it . Tell the rest to be careful," Bei Feng instructed before returning to his sleep .
At Dong Lin Chamber of Commerce sat a troubled Lian Bei, staring at his subordinates .
"Appraisers, can you tell me what happens when someone leaks the details of a business transaction?"
Below Lian Bei stood some officials and a middle-aged man, who had beads of sweat rolling down his face .
Hearing Lian Bei's serious tone, Zhang Gan's face darkened, and he knelt on the ground immediately . "Section Head, it is all my fault . Your humble servant deserves death, please show mercy . "
"Since you yourself think you deserve death, then die . "Lian Bei waved his arm and a white slash flew across, beheading Zhang Gan on the spot .
Even the officials dared not show any signs of disagreement .
"Looks like some people failed to remember our rules . I think it is important to remind everyone of it . Also, bring this person's head to our client . "
With Lian Bei being serious, nobody dared to show objections or make jokes . Not only was he the head there, he was also highly skilled at Thousand Year King realm Six Layer . Those were more than enough reason for his subordinates to fear him!
"When will Yan Bai and the rest arrive?" Within Qing Zhou Chamber of Commerce sat a small group of people—including Pan Yun Fei, who was consulting an elderly .
"Sir, Yan Bai and the other officials will arrive within two days," the elderly replied respectfully . He then added, "It is just that rumors are spreading within the Chamber and the staff are perturbed; even our number of clients has been reduced by ten percent . "
"No worries, we won't be affected even if all our clients leave . We can take this opportunity to spot the opportunistic ones too . They will know we are not ones to be meddled with easily!'
Pan Yun Fei was not worried, as he felt that as long as the three of them remained, Qing Zhou Chamber of Commerce would not collapse .
Time passed .
One day, as Bei Feng opened his eyes, strong bursts of energy left his body, making the room look like a storm just occurred . The white tiles on the floor cracked one by one, and vases even exploded into pieces .
"It is finally complete," Bei Feng exclaimed with joy . Finally, he had reached the peak of Hundred Year realm!
"Family Head, what just happened?"
Lu Bing rushed into the room, scanning the room, and looking all worried .
"Nothing bad happened, only gains . The battleship is arriving today, right?" Bei Feng asked while gesturing for Lu Bing to calm down .
"Family Head, the battleship will arrive in 15 minutes if there is no delay . These few days, I have collected enough information on Qing Zhou Chamber of Commerce . Other than Pan Yun Fei, who fought with Gu Qi that day, there are still two more Thousand Year Kings!"
It was said that Yan Bai had much more skill than Pan Yun Fei, but the most dangerous figure would be Lu Xi Mu . He was said to be at the peak of Thousand Year King realm Third Layer .
Lu Bing slowly reported the data to Bei Feng . The most worrying part was that not only did they have enemies in the open, they also had enemies in the dark .

"Go get ready, the battleship will arrive any time now . There will be a battle . If my predictions are right, there will be a battleship sent by Qing Zhou Chamber of Commerce coming for us," Bei Feng said in a serious tone . To him, Qing Zhou Chamber of Commerce was the real enemy as the cultivators in the dark waiting to take advantage of the situation were not a threat .
Thousand Year Kings were no pushovers . Bei Feng believed no cultivator would be daring enough to interfere .
"Yes, Sir!" Lu Bing nodded in agreement as she beamed with confidence .
"Gu Qi, how is your preparations?" Bei Feng connected with Gu Qi in his mind and communicated directly with it .
"Ji-ji!"
Gangster rabbit Gu Qi shook its head lightly .
"It's alright, then . Don't force it . Seems like it will be a difficult battle to fight . " Bei Feng was not too bothered, as cultivators were meant to fight for their lives . After all, no road could be smooth all the way .
Gu Qi had taken a drop of Tianjun Liquid, as well as some of that jello-like vitality substance to try to breakthrough to the next level . However, it'd failed .
A Demonic Beast's cultivation speed was slower than a human's to begin with . On top of that, Gu Qi had only broken through not too long ago, so it was all within expectations .
Even so, the gangster rabbit was able to improve its skills and reach the peak of Thousand Year King realm Second Layer!
With Gangster Rabbit Gu Qi's unique skills, even a Thousand Year King realm Fourth Layer opponent would have difficulty defeating it!
Suddenly, a huge object appeared from above the clouds!
A battleship kilometers long could be seen in the sky . A single blast from its main cannon was as powerful as a full strength attack of a peak level Thousand Year King!
It looked like a floating castle beaming with blue light .
It was a sight even to those who had already seen it before!
Grabbing the attention of many cultivators, the battleship slowly descended towards the open area of the city . Even at a slow speed, it was able to cause strong gusts of wind .

"What an amazing world . Though we are living in a world of Martial Dao, technology is still getting more advanced by the day," Bei Feng exclaimed . Technology here had far overtaken that on Earth; unfortunately, people there focused more on weaponry than the welfare of the people .
Following the descent of the battleship, everyone could feel the imminent battle, and many hungry cultivators were hovering above Bei Feng, eagerly waiting for the battle to start!
"Let's go . I shall see what Qing Zhou Chamber of Commerce is capable of . "
Bei Feng led Lu Bu and the gang out of the hotel, ignoring the burning stares of people around .
"Tsk, such a big fortune, I wonder whose hands it will land in . "
"Exactly… but I heard Qing Zhou Chamber of Commerce is serious about exterminating this bunch of people . "
"It is hard to say . Don't forget that there are still others after the fortune . "
Onlookers discussed amongst themselves fervently .
"Oh? No, look where that bunch is heading!"
One cultivator voiced out in amazement as he watched Bei Feng and the gang head in a direction .
"What? They are heading out of the city? Don't they know that they are basically like a piece of juicy meat to hungry cultivators?"
Nobody could fathom why they were going there . Being outside the city meant that anyone could act without any restraints!
In an instant, cultivators started following Bei Feng and the gang .
"Interesting, are they going to go all out?"
"This man has guts, but it's a pity he is not skilled enough!"

Some managed to deduce Bei Feng's motive, and admired his bravery . Still, to most people, it was a risky move that only a crazy or very confident person could make .
"Looks like I haven't fought for too long, and perhaps everyone has already forgotten how we Qing Zhou Chamber of Commerce eradicated our enemies!"
"Ignorant small fries, how dare you sever my son's arm?!"
As the huge cabin's door opened, two fearsome guys stepped out, followed by ten purple-robed cultivators . These strong cultivators were all at the Fourth layer of the Hundred Year realm level, and had passed through countless battles of blood and fire!
Looking at the two fearsome guys, Pan Yun Fei smiled and greeted "Brother Yan, Brother Lu . "
Skipping all formalities, Yan Bai asked, "Brother Yun, where is the guy who crippled my son?!"
"Brother Yan, it is all my fault . I did not think the opponent would dare to act in front of me . Neither did I expect them to be stronger than me . If we fought, Yan Hua could have been put in danger . "
Speaking of this, Pan Yun Fei felt apologetic .
"You cannot be blamed for this . Now, where is that bunch of people?" Lu Xi Mu said, interrupting them and preventing awkwardness .
"Not to worry, Brother Lu, I have eyes on that bunch of people . "
Pan Yun Fei and the others talked while making their way .
"Sir, the targets are heading out of the city!" A cultivator rushed in to report to Pan Yun Fei .
"What? Are they are trying to escape?!"
"Who asked them to barge into hell when they could have entered heaven!"
Lu Xi Mu and Yan Bai had entirely different deductions .
Lu Xi Mu had thought that the bunch were trying to escape into the Hundred Break Mountain Range, where they could easily hide .
Yan Bai had thought that the bunch was seeking death as there would be no restraints on how they could act outside the city .
