Ancestor Dengtian's Monstrous Might Shakes Myriad Phenomena!

Lei Quan waited quietly in the reception hall. His expression was rather grim. Even so, he had no choice but to come. Perhaps only Ancestor Dengtian, Lu Changsheng, could resolve this trouble for him. He had to come! Before long, Lu Changsheng and Ancestor Juding appeared together. Seeing Ancestor Juding, Lei Quan breathed a sigh of relief. With Ancestor Juding there to mediate, the atmosphere was bound to be far more cordial. After all, he had refused Lu Changsheng not long ago. "Fellow Daoist Lei, forgive me for not coming out to welcome you sooner," Lu Changsheng said politely. The three of them sat down. Lei Quan came straight to the point. "Fellow Daoist Dengtian, I have ventured to visit today because there is a matter I would like to ask your help with." "Oh? What matter might that be? Please speak freely, Fellow Daoist." Lei Quan paused briefly before saying, "I would like to ask you to step in and mediate with the Myriad Phenomena Chamber of Commerce." "I—or rather, the Thunder Spirit clan—have had some friction with the Myriad Phenomena Chamber of Commerce. It concerns thunder stones..." Lei Quan then recounted the entire affair in detail. In truth, it was quite simple. The Thunder Spirit clan was rich in thunder stones. Such treasures could be used for cultivation, and they also served as vital materials for refining items that required lightning-attribute resources. The Thunder Spirit clan relied on selling this specialty to earn spirit stones, using them to continuously purchase supplies and sustain their entire clan. Now, however, a problem had arisen. The issue was not with the thunder stones themselves, but with their sale. The Myriad Phenomena Chamber of Commerce also sold thunder stones. Yet for various reasons, their thunder stones were not only inferior in quality to those produced by the Thunder Spirit clan, but also considerably more expensive. As a result, the chamber's stock of thunder stones simply could not sell. The Myriad Phenomena Chamber of Commerce suffered heavy losses. Originally, the chamber had approached the Thunder Spirit clan, wishing to purchase their stock. However, the price they offered was completely unacceptable to the Thunder Spirit clan. The talks ended on bad terms. From then on, the Myriad Phenomena Chamber of Commerce used its influence to hinder the clan's sales through every possible means. The chamber possessed immense sway, particularly in the City in the Sky. No one knew what price they had paid, but they had actually convinced the other merchant guilds to cease purchasing thunder stones as well. This left the Thunder Spirit clan with no choice but to sell them on their own. Yet how many could Lei Quan sell by himself? The Myriad Phenomena Chamber of Commerce had even dispatched experts to intercept Thunder Spirit clan members around the perimeter of the City in the Sky. Furthermore, they were investigating the exact location of the Thunder Spirit clan. If the clan's location were exposed, the consequences would be unthinkable. Lei Quan had tried to yield. But when he went back to negotiate, he found their demands even more outrageous. The price they offered for the thunder stones was unimaginably low. Lei Quan could not accept it! After turning it over in his mind, Lei Quan knew that the Thunder Spirit clan alone could never prevail against the Myriad Phenomena Chamber of Commerce. He had to find another power. Lei Quan had virtually no roots in the City in the Sky. For now, the only people he could think of were Ancestor Juding and Lu Changsheng. After all, Lu Changsheng was a top-tier Ancestor! No matter where they went, top-tier Ancestors commanded respect and occupied lofty positions. If Lu Changsheng were willing to mediate, perhaps the Thunder Spirit clan's crisis could be solved. This was the true purpose behind Lei Quan's visit. Having heard the explanation, Lu Changsheng understood the ins and outs of the situation. Ancestor Juding, however, seemed to realize something. His pupils constricted slightly as he looked at Lu Changsheng. Earlier, Lu Changsheng had adamantly refused to leave the City in the Sky, clearly waiting for Lei Quan. He had even been brimming with confidence, as if he knew Lei Quan would come knocking. As it turned out, Lei Quan really had come to find him. Could it be that Lu Changsheng had known all along? Or had everything unfolded within his calculations? If so, that was terrifying... Ancestor Juding found it frightening, but to Lu Changsheng, it was nothing more than a reasonable deduction. Now, that deduction had become reality. Unlike Ancestor Juding, ever since arriving in the City in the Sky, Lu Changsheng had been gathering information on Lei Quan. The fact that Lei Quan was hawking thunder stones all over the place had naturally caught Lu Changsheng's attention. Lu Changsheng was even aware of the friction between Lei Quan and the Myriad Phenomena Chamber of Commerce. Given the customary style of the merchant guilds in the City in the Sky, how could they allow Lei Quan to suppress them indefinitely? Once they struck back, Lei Quan would almost certainly be powerless to resist. And that had proved true. Lei Quan had run out of options and could only come to Lu Changsheng to mediate. This was Lu Changsheng's opportunity. "The Myriad Phenomena Chamber of Commerce is a colossal behemoth with more than ten top-tier Ancestors. I fear my face might not carry enough weight..." Lu Changsheng said casually. His words carried a hint of evasion. How could a top-tier Ancestor lack face? However, Lei Quan understood the reason behind Lu Changsheng's reluctance. Gritting his teeth, Lei Quan said, "Fellow Daoist Dengtian, if you are willing to mediate with the Myriad Phenomena Chamber of Commerce and resolve this trouble regarding our clan's thunder stones, the immortal spirit divine item you desire is not entirely out of the question." "When the time comes, as long as you can refine the immortal spirit divine item, it will belong to you. If you cannot refine it, you may not take it away. How about that?" "However, the prerequisite for all of this is resolving our clan's current predicament and settling the issue of selling our thunder stones once and for all." Lei Quan laid out the Thunder Spirit clan's conditions. Lu Changsheng's eyes lit up. This was wonderful news! A tremendous stroke of good fortune! The Thunder Spirit clan was actually willing to offer the immortal spirit divine item on their own initiative. Although there was a condition—that he had to be able to refine it—Lu Changsheng had forged a Mortal Immortal foundation and possessed the power of analysis. As long as he had time to analyze the divine item, why would he fear being unable to refine it? He was a hundred percent certain he could refine it! On that point, Lu Changsheng had absolute confidence! "If that is the case, I can only do my best and give it a try." In the end, Lu Changsheng agreed. After all, this was precisely the outcome he had wanted. Lei Quan breathed a sigh of relief. Yet he also knew this matter would not be easy. Persuading a colossal entity like the Myriad Phenomena Chamber of Commerce was bound to be arduous. "Then I leave it in your capable hands, Fellow Daoist Dengtian!" Lei Quan took his leave. Watching Lei Quan's departing silhouette, Ancestor Juding furrowed his brows and could not resist asking, "Fellow Daoist Dengtian, even if you knew Lei Quan would come to you, how do you plan to persuade the Myriad Phenomena Chamber of Commerce?" Ancestor Juding knew Lu Changsheng's background. The Immortal Martial Palace was hardly a major power. What did it have that could make the Myriad Phenomena Chamber of Commerce wary? What weight could the face of the Immortal Martial Palace, or Lu Changsheng's own face, possibly carry? Even though Lu Changsheng was powerful, no one dared to resort to violence inside the City in the Sky. "Persuading the Myriad Phenomena Chamber of Commerce certainly won't be easy, but I must try regardless." "Besides, this is business, is it not?" "Fellow Daoist Juding, I shall pay a visit to the Myriad Phenomena Chamber of Commerce first." With that, Lu Changsheng rose and left the cave dwelling. This time, he went to the chamber alone. Before long, Lu Changsheng arrived at the headquarters of the Myriad Phenomena Chamber of Commerce. "May I ask what our honored guest requires?" A receptionist from the chamber immediately came forward to attend to him. Lu Changsheng shook his head. "Please pass word that Ancestor Dengtian, Lu Changsheng of the Immortal Martial Palace, has come specifically to pay his respects to your guild leader, Ancestor Myriad Phenomena!" "Huh?" "Ancestor Dengtian of the Immortal Martial Palace?" "I've never heard of such a major power or expert in the City in the Sky, yet he wants to see the guild leader right away?" Doubt flickered in the receptionist's mind. Nevertheless, he replied, "The guild leader is very busy and has been in secluded cultivation. How about meeting with one of our chamber's deacons..." Lu Changsheng did not reply. The aura on his body erupted in an instant. *Boom!* The terrifying presence of a top-tier Ancestor swept out, instantly permeating the entire Myriad Phenomena Chamber of Commerce. Everyone present in the chamber was jolted in shock. "What is going on? Such a terrifying aura... is this a top-tier Ancestor?" "What could cause a top-tier Ancestor to unleash his aura like this? Has someone angered him?" "What happened to the Myriad Phenomena Chamber of Commerce? Did they offend a top-tier Ancestor?" "Let's go have a look..." In an instant, murmurs broke out everywhere. They had no idea what had happened, but that did not stop them from wanting to find out. One after another, they rushed toward the source of the aura. Finding it was not difficult. Lu Changsheng's aura blazed openly without the slightest concealment. Many caught sight of him at once. Yet none of them recognized him. After all, Lu Changsheng was not widely renowned. At least in the City in the Sky, he had virtually no reputation to speak of. That, however, was in the past. From this moment onward, he would have one. A top-tier Ancestor was a pinnacle figure wherever he went. "Why must you be so angry, Fellow Daoist?" "Everything can be discussed." "Has our Myriad Phenomena Chamber of Commerce done something improper to incur such wrath?" Figures emerged one after another, all of them Ancestors, stepping out from the depths of the chamber to stand before Lu Changsheng. The receptionist was completely dumbfounded. He had no idea what he had done wrong to make this top-tier Ancestor suddenly erupt. Moreover, he never could have imagined that the man before him was actually a top-tier Ancestor. He truly had never heard of Ancestor Dengtian of the Immortal Martial Palace. If he had, how would he have dared to turn away a top-tier Ancestor? "What on earth happened?" The sight of so many Ancestors made the receptionist tremble inwardly. He could only explain the situation as it had unfolded. "Ancestor Dengtian of the Immortal Martial Palace?" "You wish to see the guild leader?" The Ancestors finally understood the context. A top-tier Ancestor certainly possessed the right to meet their guild leader. "Fellow Daoist Dengtian, please come with me. I shall take you to see the guild leader." With that, Lu Changsheng followed behind an Ancestor into the depths of the Myriad Phenomena Chamber of Commerce. The guild leader of the Myriad Phenomena Chamber of Commerce was Ancestor Myriad Phenomena. He rarely appeared in public these days, purportedly to engage in secluded cultivation and attempt a breakthrough to the supreme Ancestor Realm. Yet how could the supreme Ancestor Realm be so easily achieved? In the entire City in the Sky, there was only one supreme Ancestor—the great existence who had founded the City in the Sky with his own hands. Although both were in the Ancestor Realm, the gap between a supreme Ancestor and a top-tier Ancestor was staggering, far wider than the disparity between a high-rank Ancestor and a top-tier Ancestor. Soon, Lu Changsheng arrived at a secluded chamber. "The guild leader is inside. Please enter, Fellow Daoist." The guide showed no intention of going in. Lu Changsheng pushed the door open and stepped inside. Within the room, Lu Changsheng spotted Ancestor Myriad Phenomena at a glance. Having evidently received word, the man was already waiting on a prayer mat. "Fellow Daoist Dengtian of the Immortal Martial Palace." "Please take a seat." Ancestor Myriad Phenomena appeared remarkably placid. No overbearing might or sharp edge could be sensed from his person. Yet a man who had built the Myriad Phenomena Chamber of Commerce with his own hands could hardly be ordinary. Ancestor Myriad Phenomena studied Lu Changsheng closely, then asked, "Fellow Daoist Dengtian, you and I have never met before. What business brings you to seek me out?" Lu Changsheng did not beat around the bush and said directly, "I heard there are some misunderstandings between the Myriad Phenomena Chamber of Commerce and Fellow Daoist Lei Quan of the Thunder Spirit clan. I have come to mediate..." Ancestor Myriad Phenomena understood immediately. The Thunder Spirit clan! Or rather, the issue of the thunder stones. Lu Changsheng had come as a lobbyist. Yet how could it be so easy? "Fellow Daoist Dengtian, this matter is complicated and involves many interests. You had best not involve yourself, lest you bring trouble upon yourself." "Regarding the Thunder Spirit clan, or Lei Quan, our chamber has already made our stance very clear. Either they sell the thunder stones to our chamber at our purchase price, or the Thunder Spirit clan can forget about selling them in the City in the Sky." "Alternatively, the Thunder Spirit clan may attempt to sell the thunder stones on their own and see how that goes." Ancestor Myriad Phenomena's words were decisive and unyielding; his mind had clearly been made up long ago. There was no room for negotiation on this matter! "Fellow Daoist Myriad Phenomena, is there truly no room for discussion?" Lu Changsheng raised his head, looking straight into Ancestor Myriad Phenomena's eyes. "None at all!" Ancestor Myriad Phenomena confirmed once more. "I wonder if my face is sufficient to have your esteemed chamber sit down and talk properly?" Lu Changsheng's words caused Ancestor Myriad Phenomena to start slightly. Lu Changsheng's face? Ancestor Myriad Phenomena was somewhat bemused. What face could Lu Changsheng possibly have? He had not even known of Lu Changsheng's existence until today. As for being a top-tier Ancestor... The Myriad Phenomena Chamber of Commerce was hardly lacking in top-tier Ancestor experts. They had not just one, but more than ten! Otherwise, where would the chamber have found the confidence to marginalize Lei Quan like this and drive him into a corner? "Oh?" "And what face does Fellow Daoist Dengtian possess?" "Is it that obscure Immortal Martial Palace, or your status as a top-tier Ancestor?" "Moreover, our chamber does not lack top-tier Ancestors; our numbers exceed ten!" "So tell me, Fellow Daoist Dengtian, how much weight does your face carry to mediate the affairs between our chamber and Lei Quan?" Ancestor Myriad Phenomena's gaze was cold. Though his tone remained calm, his words were completely devoid of courtesy. Face? Lu Changsheng's face was not enough! "Indeed, my face alone is not enough." "I wonder if Fellow Daoist Myriad Phenomena is acquainted with Ancestor Xuankong and Ancestor Luosheng?" Lu Changsheng suddenly remarked. "Ancestor Xuankong? Ancestor Luosheng?" Ancestor Myriad Phenomena naturally knew both of them. They were both top-tier Ancestors. Even so, Ancestor Myriad Phenomena merely sneered. "Naturally, I know both of them. After all, they are top-tier Ancestors in the City in the Sky." "However, if you intend to invoke their names, my answer remains the same: not enough!" His chamber wielded immense influence. What did two or three top-tier Ancestors amount to? Under ordinary circumstances, he would not have minded showing them some face. When it came to thunder stones, however, it touched upon the chamber's financial lifeline. How could he possibly yield? Lu Changsheng shook his head. "Fellow Daoist Myriad Phenomena misunderstands. What I mean is that Ancestor Xuankong and Ancestor Luosheng were both slaughtered by me!" "I wonder, does my face carry enough weight now?" As Lu Changsheng's words fell, Ancestor Myriad Phenomena's eyes snapped wide. "What?" A roar echoed in Ancestor Myriad Phenomena's mind. A stormy tempest raged through his heart. Dead! Ancestor Luosheng and Ancestor Xuankong were both dead! Those were top-tier Ancestors! Two top-tier Ancestors, both killed by the Ancestor Dengtian standing before him? How could that be possible? "..." Ancestor Myriad Phenomena was struck speechless for a long time. He simply stared blankly at Lu Changsheng, countless thoughts flashing through his mind in a single instant. After a long while, Ancestor Myriad Phenomena finally seemed to recover his wits. He narrowed his eyes slightly and gave Lu Changsheng a profound look. A single top-tier Ancestor possessed influence, but it was ultimately limited. A person capable of slaying two other top-tier Ancestors, however, was an entirely different matter. Those were two completely separate concepts. If the "Ancestor Dengtian" before him could kill Ancestor Xuankong and Ancestor Luosheng, he could kill Ancestor Myriad Phenomena just as easily. After all, while Ancestor Myriad Phenomena was formidable, he was not arrogant enough to believe he could easily slay Ancestor Luosheng. Ancestor Luosheng was considered an expert even among top-tier Ancestors. Yet he had been slaughtered by Lu Changsheng. Such strength struck fear into the heart. "Fellow Daoist Dengtian, what is your relationship with the Thunder Spirit clan, or the thunder stones?" Finally, Ancestor Myriad Phenomena no longer flatly refused, but instead inquired about Lu Changsheng's connection to Lei Quan. "I promised Fellow Daoist Lei that I would resolve his conflict with the Myriad Phenomena Chamber of Commerce," Lu Changsheng replied without answering directly. Yet the meaning behind his words was crystal clear. He had given Lei Quan his word, so he would see it through. Ancestor Myriad Phenomena fell silent once more. No matter how he weighed it, clashing head-on with an expert like Lu Changsheng offered the chamber very little chance of victory. Even if the chamber possessed more than ten top-tier Ancestors, could they truly encircle and kill Lu Changsheng? Most likely not! And once a feud was formed, if Lu Changsheng picked them off one by one, the Myriad Phenomena Chamber of Commerce would not be far from collapse. Such was the deterrent power of a supreme expert. At this moment, Ancestor Myriad Phenomena had a sudden epiphany. His original purpose in establishing the chamber had not been to build factions, but to aid his own cultivation. Building factions and wielding vast power was ultimately of no use against such a threat; it served only as an auxiliary aid to cultivation. When it came to confronting a true powerhouse, it was utterly futile. Might had to reside within oneself! And Lu Changsheng, completely unknown, had walked into the chamber all by himself, confident that he could make them bow their heads. In truth, faced with such circumstances, the chamber had no choice but to bow. "Fellow Daoist Dengtian, what do you think should be done?" Ancestor Myriad Phenomena asked. Lu Changsheng had already considered a solution. He smiled and said, "In business, both sides benefit from cooperation. Why not have the Myriad Phenomena Chamber of Commerce purchase Fellow Daoist Lei Quan's thunder stones, with the condition that his clan may only sell them to your chamber going forward?" "Alternatively, your chamber could act as the sole agent selling his thunder stones, taking a cut of the profits, while Fellow Daoist Lei Quan is forbidden from selling them privately." "As for which method to choose, that depends on your chamber's preference." Ancestor Myriad Phenomena pondered briefly. In truth, purchasing Lei Quan's thunder stones outright was best. That way, the chamber would have far greater room to maneuver. Acting as an agent was cumbersome, and who could predict the future? If his chamber could act as an agent, what would stop other guilds from doing the same? In the end, his chamber might suffer heavy losses. Only by cementing a firm partnership could the Thunder Spirit clan's thunder stones be bound exclusively to the Myriad Phenomena Chamber of Commerce. Of course, this was essentially a compromise. The Myriad Phenomena Chamber of Commerce was yielding. Yet there was no alternative. Faced with a ruthless figure like Lu Changsheng, they could only compromise! "Our chamber is willing to purchase the Thunder Spirit clan's thunder stones. However, regarding the price..." Thus, the two sides began negotiating the price. Before coming, Lei Quan had disclosed his bottom line to Lu Changsheng. It was certainly far lower than the price the clan could fetch by selling individually, but it guaranteed volume and stability. The chamber would take virtually as many thunder stones as the clan could provide. Under such circumstances, a slightly lower price was acceptable. Even so, Lu Changsheng naturally would not let Lei Quan suffer too great a loss; he still needed to handle the matter splendidly. After some back-and-forth bargaining, the Myriad Phenomena Chamber of Commerce ultimately yielded ground. Both sides reached a satisfactory price agreement. Ancestor Myriad Phenomena gave Lu Changsheng a deep look and remarked, "Fellow Daoist Dengtian, it is truly a pity that you did not pursue commerce." During their war of words just now, Lu Changsheng had refused to yield an inch on price, leaving Ancestor Myriad Phenomena with nowhere to gain leverage. When it came to business, Lu Changsheng seemed not a whit inferior. Lu Changsheng chuckled. "Fellow Daoist Myriad Phenomena, do you truly believe my negotiation skills are that formidable?" Ancestor Myriad Phenomena started, then let out a self-deprecating laugh. Indeed, how could Lu Changsheng truly possess brilliant negotiation skills? He had simply dug in his heels on the price. He had done so because he was certain Ancestor Myriad Phenomena would not dare break off negotiations. It was fear of Lu Changsheng's strength! Negotiation tactics were meaningless. Only personal might was the decisive factor! "The price has been settled. Fellow Daoist Dengtian, have Fellow Daoist Lei Quan come to the chamber to sign the agreement." "Very well! Fellow Daoist Myriad Phenomena, I shall take my leave." Lu Changsheng then rose and departed the Myriad Phenomena Chamber of Commerce. *** Meanwhile, within Lu Changsheng's cave dwelling, Lei Quan paced anxiously. Although he was also an Ancestor, this matter was of paramount importance. It concerned the entire Thunder Spirit clan, so he could not help but worry. Ancestor Juding, on the other hand, kept urging Lei Quan to stay calm. Ancestor Juding had great confidence in Lu Changsheng. Lu Changsheng was not a reckless man. Since he had decided to take on the Thunder Spirit clan's problem, he would surely see it handled properly—even if the opponent was the Myriad Phenomena Chamber of Commerce! "Juding, tell me honestly: can Fellow Daoist Dengtian truly deal with the Myriad Phenomena Chamber of Commerce? That is the Myriad Phenomena Chamber of Commerce, after all..." Even now, Lei Quan found it hard to believe that Lu Changsheng could resolve the conflict. The chamber's influence was far too colossal. And the Immortal Martial Palace? Lei Quan had never even heard of it, which proved it was hardly a formidable power. How could it possibly force the chamber to back down? "Be at ease. Just wait patiently," Ancestor Juding said, choosing not to say too much or reveal Lu Changsheng's true strength. "Hm?" "He's back!" Just then, a familiar figure returned to the cave dwelling. Ancestor Juding looked up. It was Lu Changsheng. "Fellow Daoist Dengtian, how did it go?" Lei Quan asked immediately, his urgency plain to see. Lu Changsheng glanced at Lei Quan, then smiled. "Fortunately, I did not fail my mission. An agreement has been reached with Ancestor Myriad Phenomena." "The Myriad Phenomena Chamber of Commerce will purchase your clan's thunder stones from now on. In return, your clan may not sell them privately; you must sell only to them, and they will purchase as many as you have." "As for the price..." Lu Changsheng stated the agreed price. "What?" Lei Quan's heart jolted! The price was not too low—it was surprisingly high! It was far higher than what the chamber had offered previously. Although it was still slightly lower than what Lei Quan could get by selling them individually, individual sales could only move small amounts at a time. Selling to the chamber meant bulk wholesale. The two were on entirely different scales. From now on, the Thunder Spirit clan would no longer have to worry about selling their thunder stones; they could simply bundle them off to the chamber. Such business dealings grew more stable over time, potentially lasting for centuries or millennia. This had truly secured an enduring source of wealth for the Thunder Spirit clan. The benefits were beyond measure! "Fellow Daoist Dengtian, this is... truly unbelievable." "Thank you so much, Fellow Daoist Dengtian..." Lei Quan was at a loss for words. This was an enormous, delightful surprise. "Tomorrow, I shall accompany you to the Myriad Phenomena Chamber of Commerce to sign the formal agreement," "After that, you can set your mind at ease..." Lu Changsheng said with a smile. To Lu Changsheng, the affair carried little significance on its own. It was merely a transaction. A deal with Lei Quan, or rather, with the Thunder Spirit clan. His objective had never changed: it was solely for the immortal spirit divine item! "Rest assured, Fellow Daoist Dengtian. Once the agreement is signed, I will have someone deliver the immortal spirit divine item to the City in the Sky." Lu Changsheng nodded. Lei Quan clearly still did not dare lead Lu Changsheng to the Thunder Spirit clan's territory. If the clan's location were exposed, the consequences would be catastrophic. Lei Quan dared not take that risk. As for whether Lu Changsheng might refuse to return the divine item once it was brought to the City in the Sky, Lei Quan was not worried. As long as one could not refine an immortal spirit divine item, it was essentially useless. Why would Lu Changsheng go against his conscience and refuse to return it? Doing so would leave a flaw in his Dao heart, halting his cultivation progress permanently. For someone aspiring to reach the Immortal Realm, that would be completely unacceptable. Thus, on the following day, Lu Changsheng accompanied Lei Quan to the Myriad Phenomena Chamber of Commerce. Ancestor Myriad Phenomena received them personally. Both sides reaffirmed the price of the thunder stones. Lei Quan was thoroughly satisfied, and the two parties signed the agreement. On the spot, Lei Quan handed over a batch of thunder stones, which the chamber purchased in full according to the contract. Both sides were delighted. Whether it was truly a happy outcome for all, Lu Changsheng could not say. After all, the chamber could originally have extracted far more profit. Because of Lu Changsheng, they had been unable to seize the lion's share, leaving the bulk of the profits in the hands of the Thunder Spirit clan. Nevertheless, both sides could now make a profit. "Fellow Daoist Dengtian, give it a few months, and the immortal spirit divine item will be delivered to the City in the Sky," Lei Quan promised after signing the agreement. He would have someone bring the divine item as quickly as possible, ensuring Lu Changsheng would not have to wait too long. "Very well, I shall wait a bit longer then." Lu Changsheng nodded. He had already waited this long; he did not mind waiting a few months more.
