Chapter 654: Chapter 654 Chairman Huang Fu

While Feng Jun and Yu Changqing were talking, the only one qualified to enter the room was Mi Yunshan—she was also a cultivator, and even if her level was low, no one else, not even Lang Zhen, could conveniently come in.

However, even for her, without important news, she could not disturb the two of them.

The Tiantong Commercial Alliance had also built a courtyard at Feng Jun’s doorstep, and it was quite large, much larger than the small courtyard of Wuyou Platform.

But Feng Jun did not feel that he had any special connection with them, so he asked aloud, “The Tiantong Commercial Alliance even has an Eastern Branch? Isn’t that the same kind of thing as the Wonderful Hand Pavilion?”

Organizations of immortal cultivators having branches like the East, South, West, and North in the Mortal Realm? This was demeaning, wasn’t it?

“Senior Feng, you may not be aware,” said Yu Changqing suddenly, “Actually, in the entire Eastern part of Donghua, there are quite a few scattered cultivators, with dedicated Inspectors overseeing them, while the Tiantong Commercial Alliance’s goods reach throughout the world… including commercial breeding in the Mortal Realm.”

The Tiantong Commercial Alliance mainly did business with cultivators, but in order to sell goods, they first needed to have goods, right?

In the Donghua Eastern Branch, mortals were still the majority, but the main person in charge of the branch was, of course, a cultivator who normally did not show their face much. However, this time they had made a special trip to pay respects to Feng Jun.

Feng Jun glanced at the sky, “It’s getting late… Let’s do it tomorrow, by the way, what is Chairman Huang Fu’s cultivation level?”

Yun Shan shook her head blankly, “That… how could I possibly know?”

When she spoke like this, it wasn’t in the tone typical of a female servant. But then again… Sister Lin was originally more than just Doctor Feng’s female attendant.

I’ll state the principle,” Feng Jun said seriously, “The same old rule: No entry without invitation during the period of detachment from the world.”

“I don’t think it’s detachment from the world,” Yu Changqing shook his head, “In the secular world, the existence of someone in that stage would be too astonishing; the Hundred Flowers Tower was destroyed by someone in that stage.”

When Feng Jun heard that the visitor was not in the stage of detachment from the world, he felt relieved, and continued the previous topic, “Since there is no explicit prohibition, collecting some natural treasures from barren lands for experimentation should be fine. I happen to have some that I can use for an experiment.”

Yu Changqing nodded upon hearing this, “If it’s for experimentation, then it’s not a problem. Exploring the Great Dao cannot be done through mere conjecture… However, I have never heard of these natural treasures from barren lands.”

The Mobile Phone dimension did not resist experimentation either, or else Wuyou Platform would not have produced eccentric geniuses like Wang Botai, and Elder Yan was even willing to join Feng Jun in analyzing various formations.

Feng Jun felt more assured when he heard this and smiled in response, “Natural treasures can indeed be found in barren lands. An elder from my sect once accidentally entered a Twilight Secret Realm…”

“Twilight Secret Realm?” Mi Yunshan gasped with a chill, covering her mouth and widening her eyes, “That’s no place for humans.”

This was Sister Lin’s flaw; Feng Jun helplessly touched his forehead: Being so blunt can hurt people, you know?

How could the people from the Twilight Realm not be considered human? I’ve lived on Earth Realm for so long, and I’ve never consumed your family’s rice…

“This warrants further study,” said Yu Changqing, nodding, “As a disciple of a sect, I am more aware of the Twilight Secret Realm than Mi Yunshan. Our old ancestor of Wuyou Platform once said, twilight doesn’t necessarily mean no Dao. Who can be certain that they won’t see the day of twilight?”

Feng Jun nodded and gave a thumbs up, “Your sect’s ancestor indeed has profound insights. To be forewarned is to be forearmed; who can fully understand the will of heaven? The sun rises in the east and the rain falls in the west; the Dao is said to be without clarity, yet there is clarity.”

“The Dao is said to be unfeeling, yet there is feeling…” Yu Changqing pondered for a moment, then stood up and bowed deeply, “Thank you, Senior Feng, for enlightening me.”

Feng Jun had not anticipated that his words would be misunderstood; he was thinking of something else, “Besides the Spirit Plant Formation, I have some other ideas I want to experiment with here.”

“As for experimentation, I do not have the authority to decide,” Yu Changqing hesitated, then shook her head, “Senior Feng, this is just an idea, just listen to it.”

Feng Jun knew that her words had little weight, and being a disciple within a sect, she undoubtedly had her reservations, so he did not say anything more.

However, he realized that while the Yuan Guangmi Family might have been in decline recently, there were still people who had been mixed up in the Cultivation World; otherwise, Mi Yunshan would not be aware of the Twilight Secret Realm.

After Yu Changqing left, he asked Mi Yunshan, “Where should a fellow sect member of mine in the Qi Refinement Realm go if they wish to advance to the next stage?”

“That would definitely be the Immortal Market,” Sister Lin answered without hesitation, “You are not a local cultivator; it would be difficult for you to find Spirit Land in the Immortal Realm. The Immortal Market has places for cultivation, all you need to do is spend Spirit Stones.”

Feng Jun raised his eyebrows, surprised to ask, “The Immortal Market doesn’t inquire about one’s origins and background?”

“At the stage of Qi Refinement, why ask about origins and background?” Mi Yunshan replied softly, “That’s the domain of immortals; this mortal is ignorant… It just costs more Spirit Stones.”

Feng Jun became silent; the difference between immortals and mortals is similar to that between officials and citizens. Matters within the system could be discussed freely.

Seeing his silent demeanor, Sister Lin leaned over and snuggled up against him, softly speaking, “My lord, it’s been a long time since we… cultivated together. The path of cultivation is like rowing upstream; if we don’t advance, we fall back.”

“Supreme Dragon Phoenix Technique” is indeed a valuable treasure, but without a Spirit Gathering Array to assist, the cultivation speed remains quite slow.

Although Mi Yunshan appears fragile, her determination is exceptionally strong, and she approaches her cultivation with utmost sincerity.

Feng Jun profoundly felt her perseverance, to the extent that he got up rather late the next day and couldn’t help but exclaim, “A woman who becomes serious is truly terrifying…”

Then, he encountered another woman who was serious about her pursuits—Chairman Huang Fu Wuxia of the Tiantong Commercial Alliance Eastern Branch.

Chairman Huang Fu came to visit around ten o’clock. She was about twenty years old, with a height of around 1.65 meters and an oval face that exuded a ladylike charm. However, her perceptive eyes revealed her lively spirit at a glance, showing that her personality was anything but dull.

Her cultivation level was at the Qi Refining Fifth Layer, and she was accompanied by two disciples at the Qi Refining Initial Stage.

Chairman Huang Fu was very considerate with formalities. After arriving, she first presented a gift, a tome for martial cultivators to practice physical cultivation, “Sun Moving Mountain Skill”—a technique that even Innate Experts could use for cultivation.

For martial cultivators, this was an extremely precious manual. It would undoubtedly sell for several hundred taels of gold; and to someone who needed it, it would not be surprising for it to fetch over a thousand taels.

However, it was somewhat superfluous for cultivators. Nonetheless, it was evident that she knew Feng Jun was collecting martial cultivation techniques. Her gift was well-targeted and significant.

This was the first time Feng Jun had received a greeting gift from a cultivator. In the spirit of reciprocity, he instructed Lang Zhen, “Package a Boiler Camel Motorcycle for Chairman Huang Fu, complete with double sets of lights and materials.”

Just as Chairman Huang Fu was taking her seat, she couldn’t help but chuckle at his words, “Feng Daoist friend, this… gesture of returning a favor seems a bit insincere, doesn’t it? You’re giving me a Boiler Camel Motorcycle, something it seems you have plenty of.”

“Chairman Huang Fu is jesting,” Feng Jun replied seriously, as the other party was straightforward, which he appreciated, “With the vast business of Tiantong Commercial Alliance, a skill like the Sun Moving Mountain Skill is but a drop in the ocean, much like the Boiler Camel Motorcycle to me… inconsequential, but enough to convey my regards.”

Chairman Huang Fu was first taken aback, then covered her mouth and chuckled lightly, “Feng Daoist friend is indeed forthright… May I have the opportunity to stroll around your place?”

“Be my guest,” Feng Jun said, spreading his hands, “This place is open to visitors. The two Daoist friends behind you have already taken a tour… It’s merely a temporary dwelling for me.”

“I’d like to visit some other places,” Chairman Huang Fu said, gazing intently at him, “like the deeper areas of Mount Zhige, for instance.”

“That’s also up to you,” Feng Jun replied indifferently, “I usually only allow mortals to enter Mount Zhige, but since Chairman Huang Fu has spoken openly, I am not a petty host.”

Just then, Mi Yunshan brought in tea and greeted the distinguished guest.

Chairman Huang Fu observed her, a flicker of curiosity in her eyes, and spoke with a smile, “Such a beauty is truly a pity to behold. Her aptitude is not bad, though it’s a shame that there’s been some delay… Fortunately, she has cultivated a decent Harmonizing Technique.”

Feng Jun looked at her in surprise, “That look in your eyes is a bit strange, is it a secret technique or a magical treasure?”

Chairman Huang Fu’s eyes sparkled once more, as she replied with a smile, “Consider it a secret technique. However, it’s of no use to ordinary people who can’t cultivate it… This is Treasure-Appraising Eye, a skill needed for a division head of the Tiantong Commercial Alliance.”

Her explanation was reasonable; as a businessperson, one indeed needs a discerning eye, and even more so as a chairman, to avoid being deceived by subordinates.

Feng Jun frowned in dissatisfaction, “Are you using this technique on me because you think I’m gullible?”

Using appraisal techniques on others so casually was really impolite and could even be construed as a provocation.

Chairman Huang Fu replied with a smile, “Please calm down, Daoist friend. When Tiantong Commercial Alliance seeks cooperation, necessary understanding is required.”

Her reasoning made some sense, but Feng Jun was still not pleased. He furrowed his brows, “Could it be that you’re worried your vitality is too exuberant?”

He really disliked being appraised because he had no desire to expose his own cultivation level.

Even though he was aware that there were countless other ways for someone to investigate his cultivation level, possibly without his awareness, it still seemed better to do it covertly rather than openly and brazenly.

As for the remark about “exuberant vitality,” it implied that investigative techniques of this nature often touched upon the realm of divining truths, and the user would typically pay a price. The most common consequence was damage to one’s vitality, but injury to the soul or even shortened lifespan was also not uncommon.

Using the Treasure-Appraising Eye successively on Sister Lin and himself was highly unusual.

Instead of answering directly, Chairman Huang Fu gestured with her hand, signaling her followers, “You two leave first… Feng Daoist friend, please also dismiss your people.”

Upon hearing this, Feng Jun signaled Lang Zhen and Mi Yunshan with his eyes, “Make sure the surroundings are secure.”

Once everyone had left, Chairman Huang Fu finally spoke with a smile, “Unexpectedly, Feng Daoist friend is indeed at the Qi Refining Sixth Layer.”
