The Attack Of The Wastrel Chapter 431

Gu Lingzhi was well-versed in Weapon Forging and crafting high-grade Spiritual Weapons was not a problem.

Especially after she integrated the unique Weapon Forging methods from the Lost Lands, the quality of her Spiritual Weapons were much better than the ones others had made.

The people from Tianbao Store were not stupid. They could see her power from the Spiritual Weapons that she was selling.

In just a few days, the people from the Tianbao Store had come up to find them.

The vice-manager of the Tianbao Store was a skinny young man that looked to be around thirty years old. His tiny eyes were filled with energy. Whoever he looked at would have an impression that he was admiring them, making people feel good about themselves. As the person-in-charge of diplomatic relations, he was alluring.

Glancing at the people in the main hall, Li Yi turned to Tianfeng Jin, “I never thought that the recently famous Gui Yuan Clan would have such a stunning female hero as the Clan Leader. The elders are also all impressive looking and worthy of admiration as well. I believe that in no time, the Gui Yuan Clan will become one of the cornerstones of the Realm of the G.o.ds. I hope that you will not fault me for coming uninvited today.”

Tianfeng Jin replied calmly, “Vice-manager, you are too polite.” She then sat there without saying more.

Diplomacy was something that she could not do.

Seeing this, Xin Yi carried on the conversation and smiled, “I am the vice-leader of the Gui Yuan Clan, Xin Yi. I wonder what you have come to see us for today?”

“Oh, you are the vice-leader, my apologies.” Li Yi cupped his fists as he praised him once again. Everyone knew the reason why he was here and was not in any particular rush to question him and hence, allowed him to beat around the bush.

After believing that he had complimented them enough, he looked at the people in front of him and saw their lack of reaction. He silently scolded them for not giving him a reaction before plastering a fake smile, “I believe that you have already guessed why I am here today so I will not beat around the bush. I have come today because of the Yinyang Store and the name 'Black Thorn'.”

Xin Yi already knew this but still pretended to be surprised, “The Black Thorn? Has she offended you in any way?”

“No, no, no…” Li Yi immediately waved his hand, “The respectful 'Black Thorn' did not offend me, I am the one that has been impressed by the Spiritual Weapons she makes and specially came here. If I can ask for a Spiritual Weapon of my liking, it would be great.”

“Oh, I see.” Xin Yi pretended to be relieved as he pointed at Gu Lingzhi and smiled, “This is Black Thorn, who we refer to as Elder Black. You can talk to her regarding what kind of weapon you would like. I believe she will not reject making a weapon for someone like you, vice-manager.”

Gu Lingzhi, who had disguised herself as the Black Thorn, smiled and nodded, “That's right, to make a weapon for you would be advertising for our Gui Yuan Clan, I have nothing more to ask for.”

Li Yi froze slightly, he had thought that he would face some resistance. After all, from what he investigated as well as the way the Gui Yuan Clan behaved, they seem to be on the same boat as the Yinyang Store. He was already prepared to do what he would always do. When met with resistance, he would disclose who was backing the Tianbao Store and they would have no choice but to oblige. He never thought that they would agree so simply. On the contrary, this made him confused.

“Vice-manager, you don't have to be wary.” Gu Lingzhi said helplessly, “Not only will I agree to help you create your weapon, in the future if you have any other requests, I will be willing to help. It is just that…”

Gu Lingzhi paused, she looked at Li Yi and took a deep breath, “I have a request!”

“What request?” Li Yi asked in return.

“In the future, you can't make things difficult for the Yinyang Store.” As she said this, Gu Lingzhi saw Li Yi's expression immediately sink and quickly added on, “I believe that you already know, all the Yinyang Stores around the Realm of the G.o.ds have closed and only the ones in Juluan City remain open. No matter how much they try in the future, they would not be able to influence the position of Tianbao Store. We are only trying to survive in the Juluan City. I hope you will be able to understand and help us put in a few good words to allow the Yinyang Store to continue its business.”

With her speech, Gu Lingzhi managed to convey the commitment of the Gui Yuan Clan to Li Yi. It made Li Yi no longer able to start his speech to convince the Gui Yuan Clan to work with the Tianbao Store.

At the same time, Gu Lingzhi also sent the message that in the future, the activities of the Yinyang Store will only be restricted in Juluan City.

The Realm of the G.o.ds was huge and Juluan City did not even cover ten percent of the entire land. In this case, the Yinyang Store was of no threat to the Tianbao Store and was like a beast trapped in a cage. How would they be able to compete with an eagle that soared in the sky? But this was a big decision and he was not able to make the decision by himself. He had to go back and report it to his superiors.

As he thought about it, Li Yi nodded slightly, “I will bring this matter up to my manager. However, I won't be able to promise whether it can be done. Furthermore, are your words reflective of the intentions of the Yinyang Store?”

“Vice-manager, you can rest a.s.sured. Without the approval of the head of the Zhuo Family, how will I dare to make my own decision?” Gu Lingzhi said, “If you don't believe me, I can head to your Tianbao Store personally with the head of the Zhuo Family another time.”

Li Yi no longer had doubts. He said a few more courteous words before leaving.

When Li Yi was gone from their sight, Zhuo Haotian who was hiding in the back of the hall dashed out. He pointed angrily in the direction that Li Yi had disappeared in and huffed, “Stupid power-abusing people! I will make you all go bankrupt one day!”

Gu Lingzhi shook her head helplessly, “As long as Pan Luo lives, you will never be able to cause their family to go bankrupt.”

“Then we must make Pan Luo disappear.” Zhuo Haotian said casually, still not aware of who this Pan Luo represents.

Gu Lingzhi looked at Hunting Cat who had just walked into the room and laughed, “Pan Luo is not someone that will disappear just because you wished he would disappear. To deal with him, you must be prepared to deal with the entire Realm of the G.o.ds.

Zhuo Haotian was confused, “I said that I would deal with Pan Luo, why must I face the entire Realm of the G.o.ds?”

Gu Lingzhi smiled and did not reply. She simply looked at Hunting Cat.

Zhuo Haotian followed her gaze and landed on Hunting Cat, he tilted his head, “Sister Gu, is Pan Luo Brother Cat's friend?”

Brother Cat? Gu Lingzhi forced herself to suppress her amus.e.m.e.nt. This name was something that only Zhuo Haotian could think of.

“Pan Luo is not his friend, but the person he respects the most. If you hurt him, your Brother Cat will be upset.”

“He's someone that Brother Cat respects?” Zhuo Haotian's eyes widened, “Brother Cat is such a good person, why would he respect someone so evil?”

Gu Lingzhi took a jab at his sore point and now, Zhuo Haotian was looking at him incredulously, Hunting Cat sat up straight as he felt like there were needles on the ground. His eyes swept across everyone in the room and left the room dejectedly.

“Eh, Brother Cat, why are you running away!” Zhuo Haotian called after him unsatisfied. Unfortunately, he was not able to stop Hunting Cat from leaving and could only sigh as he turned to Gu Lingzhi.

“Sister Gu, who is Pan Luo? How capable is he to be the big boss behind the Tianbao Store? Isn't the Tianbao Store the Li Family's business? Since when did they change masters?”

Xin Yi scratched his head and said meaningfully, “They didn't switch owners, the Tianbao Store has always belonged to Pan Luo. As for who Pan Luo is, you don't have to know. Just know that it is someone that we cannot offend for now. Don't bring this matter up outside.”

“Tsk, trying to be mysterious again.” Zhuo Haotian rolled his eyes but obediently stopped asking.

On the other side, Li Yi had pa.s.sed on what Gu Lingzhi said to the Tianbao Store manager of the Juluan City branch. The manager then pa.s.sed on the message to the main headquarters in the Deity King City of the Realm of the G.o.ds. Li Feng, who was the current head of the Tianbao Store, was then tasked to pa.s.s the message on to Pan Luo.

When he was pa.s.sing on the message, Pan Luo was just in the midst of playing with a weirdly shaped copper mirror.

From the exterior, other than its uniquely weird shape, the copper mirror did not look any different from a normal mirror. However, upon directing spiritual energy into it, one side of the copper mirror would become pitch black. A silver lightning snake would be dancing within it. As long as desired by the owner, it would shoot out lightning strikes at its enemies.

Bang!

In a distance, a flower vase was broken by a flash from the copper mirror and was scattered on the floor.

“It is good, but the grade is too low.” Pan Luo shook his head.

This copper mirror was a high-grade Heaven Level Spiritual Weapon and was useful when dealing with Martial Artists below the True G.o.d rank. However, it was helpless against True G.o.ds. It was a pity that when he got the news, it was already too late. When he asked someone to help him purchase an item, the few G.o.dly Weapons that were available among the hundreds that Gu Lingzhi had provided were all sold out. Only a few Heaven-Level Spiritual Weapons were left. The copper mirror was one of them.

“Give up targeting the Yinyang Store and we can find her if we need any weapons in the future?” Pan Luo gripped the Queen Communication Conch as he listened to the soft voice of Li Feng that was being transmitted.

“Yes, Grandmaster.” Li Feng's voice once again sounded from the Communication Conch.

The Communication Conch was rare in the Tianyuan Continent but was extremely common in the Realm of G.o.ds. A lot of powerful people preferred to use this method to communicate.

Pan Luo turned the copper mirror in his hand as he looked at the broken flower vase. He then said blandly, “I can leave the Yinyang Store alone, but…I have to see something of value.”

If the Black Thorn could not create a G.o.dly Weapon that he would be satisfied with, then her existence did not matter to him, much less to change his plan. If she could really create something he was satisfied with, there was no harm letting her get her way.

Li Feng heard what Pan Luo meant and said in a flattering voice, “Grandmaster, rest a.s.sured, Li Yi has already thought of this and when he left the Gui Yuan Clan, he expressed his desire for the Black Thorn to create a weapon for him. When the weapon has been made, we will know whether she is worthy.”

Pan Luo smiled in satisfaction, “You are still so thoughtful.”

“I have to do my very best in order to work for you Grandmaster.” Another bout of flattery came out of Li Feng's mouth.

Pan Luo smiled, “Then I will wait for your good news.”

As they ended their contact, Pan Luo turned his attention to the copper mirror.

“This isn't a common method of Weapon Forging in the Realm of the G.o.ds. It is also not a technique of the Spirit Tribe. I wonder where this person came from?”
