But no one dared to say anything.
Because they all know that Han Qianshan is right.
In the face of absolute power, hatred and pride meant nothing.
Only flowers are eternal.
David nodded.
“Special Envoy Han is a wise man.”
Han Qianshan cupped his hands in greeting, “Mr. Chen, you are overpraising me. Although the Void Chamber of Commerce is powerful, it is not unreasonable. Wu Yuan’s matter is his own fault. From now on, the Void Chamber of Commerce will not cause you any trouble because of this matter.”
David was silent for a moment, a thoughtful look flashing across his purple eyes.
“Special Envoy Han, I would like to ask you for a favor.”
Han Qianshan raised his eyebrows slightly. “Mr. Chen, please speak.”
“I’m looking for someone.”
David’s voice sounded a little serious, “Her name is Su Yuqi. I don’t know if she is still in Eighteenth Heaven.”
Han Qianshan was silent for a moment, then nodded.
“Alright. The Void Merchant Guild has a branch in the Celestial Realm, so finding someone shouldn’t be difficult. Even if he’s no longer on Eighteenth Heaven, we should still be able to find him.”
David nodded and continued.
“Besides that, I also need to find strength. Where is the nest of the devil cultivators of the Flame Devil lineage on Eighteenth Heaven?”
Han Qianshan frowned.
“Fire Demon bloodline? What does Master Chen want from them?”
“Yuqi might be among the devil cultivators of the Fire Devil lineage,” David said calmly.
Han Qianshan looked at David deeply.
“Okay. I will ask my people to investigate. Once they find out, I will send someone to inform Mr. Chen.”
David cupped his hands in thanks. “Thank you, Special Envoy Han.”
Han Qianshan waved his hand, “Mr. Chen, you are too kind. Although we are businessmen, we are not completely motivated by profits. We will still help if needed.”
He paused, then took out a silver jade talisman from his pocket and handed it to David.
“This is the VIP token of the Void Merchant Guild. With this token, you can enjoy the highest level of treatment in any branch of the Void Merchant Guild in the Celestial Realm. If Master Chen needs anything in the future, you can directly come to us with this token.”
David took the jade talisman, glanced at it, then put it into his storage ring.
“See you later, Special Envoy Han.”
“See you again.”
Han Qianshan turned around and led more than thirty cultivators from the Void Merchant Guild away from the Fire God Palace.
Their silver-white robes shimmered faintly under the sunlight, and their figures quickly disappeared at the end of the mountain path.
David turned his gaze and looked at the Fire God Palace under his feet.
The golden-red palace shimmered faintly in the sunlight, but the air was filled with the pungent smell of blood, and the ground was covered in golden-red blood and shattered armor.
Thousands of corpses lay scattered on the ground, each with a different way of death, but every corpse had its eyes wide open, filled with fear and hatred.
Master Yuxu walked to David’s side, complex emotions flashing in his old eyes.
“Master Chen, the Fire God Palace is finished.”
David nodded. “Clean the battlefield and remove all usable resources.”
“Yes!” shouted three hundred students in unison.
It took a full day to pack up all the things in the Fire God Palace.
Three hundred disciples from Qingyun Cave Heaven sheathed their swords, lined up neatly, and followed David back to Qingyun Cave Heaven.
The blue Daoist robe fluttered in the morning breeze, and the long sword clashed gently at his waist, producing a crisp clanking sound.
Jiang Xuelan walked beside David, her snow-white dress stained with a few drops of golden red blood that glistened eerily in the sunlight.
“What are you thinking about?” he asked.
David was silent for a moment, his purple eyes staring into the distance.
“I’m thinking about Yuqi.”
His voice was very soft, so soft that only Jiang Xuelan could hear it.
“I don’t know if he is okay, if his wounds have healed, or if he is still in danger.”
Jiang Xuelan was silent for a moment, then reached out and held David’s hand.
“He will be found, and he will remember you,” Jiang Xuelan said.
“Um!”
David nodded and squeezed Jiang Xuelan’s hand.
