After having customized their offensive plans, Eight Immortals Sect began to contact the subsidiary cities, hoping to receive support along the way. In the end, they quickly discovered that the sects that were usually obedient had all become sluggish.
All of them either the Sect Leader went into seclusion or went out together to gain experience. There were even those that entered a period of hibernation and most of the disciples did not come out from seclusion.
These people also knew how to judge the situation. When the Nine Regions Chamber of Commerce sent out the message, those who dared to attack the auction house would not be able to sell any of their resources.
This way, it was impossible for the sect heads to not consider it. If it was like this, their disciples would definitely join another sect out of resources, and they would not be able to make up for the losses.
If Nine Regions Chamber of Commerce could be destroyed in one go, that would be good. However, looking at it now, it was very likely that Star Moon Sect was standing together with Nine Regions Chamber of Commerce.
After being unable to mobilize these people, the hall master of the Eight Immortals Sect thoroughly investigated the reason. When he heard the rumors that there was a possibility that Nine Regions Chamber of Commerce and Star Moon Sect would cooperate, he panicked.
Without waiting for him to investigate further, two days later, Star Moon Sect s and Nine Regions Chamber of Commerce s immediately pasted a notice on the place he belonged to, announcing the strong alliance.
It was only then that this news reached the ears of Eight Immortals Sect Master Chu Batian. He did not speak for a long while after hearing the news, and his expression changed again and again.
"They dare?" Finally, he stood up and asked with bloodshot eyes, "Why did they join hands? "How could that be?"
Below him were the several hall masters. Not a single one of them dared to speak.
In a situation where their Affiliated Sects were disobedient, they would not even be able to defeat Star Moon Sect, not to mention that they still had Nine Regions Chamber of Commerce, which was an abundant amount of resources.
"Clan Master, at this point in time, it is advantageous for us to talk about peace. If we were to blindly clash head on, we fear that we would not be able to defeat them." A pavilion master stood forward and said.
Chu Batian glared at him and said, "You mean to say that you want me to lower my head to that child?"
"Of course not, Nine Regions Chamber of Commerce does this because they do not want to be our subordinates. Since this is the case, they definitely do not want to be controlled by Star Moon Sect like this."
"And we are the only force that can resist Star Moon Sect. I think that Hu Yue will gladly agree to help us." The pavilion master continued.
"Bastard." Chu Batian threw a teacup over to her.
The hall master hurriedly knelt down in fear.
"I, your father, have beaten a goose for my whole life. To think that a goose would peck my eye today. Child, are you very good?" Chu Batian's voice was filled with anger and unwillingness.
The people below did not dare to speak, as they had clearly seen now that Nine Regions Chamber of Commerce was not a good person, and what they had done before was to seize the opportunity to rise in power, and was not some form of attachment.
These people were all made a fool out of themselves.
It was extremely dangerous to advance now, and retreating could only mean that they had to hold back their anger. They had to make a choice in this matter.
The Eight Immortals Sect Master sighed heavily, and did not speak for a long time.
On the other side, after confirming that they had formed an alliance, Mu Qingyan and Tang Qing sped up their arrangements, wanting to set up the auction house as soon as possible.
On the other hand, Hua Ruge was thinking from head to toe in the manor, and according to her estimations, other than some sort of foolishness, it was absolutely impossible for this Eight Immortals Sect user to make a move on her again.
However, she was a bit worried. She said that she was not afraid of thieves, but rather afraid of thieves' thoughts. Even if they were to restrain themselves at this moment, it would be unavoidable for them to take a bite out of her predicament.
She had to completely subdue it, and that would require building up her prestige.
That day, she decided to recruit the guards again. Her requirements were still as high as they used to be.
Only when she had enough power would she be able to do things in a more straightforward manner and completely get rid of the situation where she relied on others to survive.
She gave the order to Mu Qingyan for her to take care of this, while she took care of the matter of changing the candidates and distributing the resources to him.
At this time, the people in the Land of Chaos had already clearly seen the strength of the Nine Regions Chamber of Commerce, so the number of people registering was much more compared to before.
However, Hua Ruge could not be happy about this, every day when she was facing the complex arrangement, she seemed to be weak, after all her normal actions were simple and crude, and did not know how to handle such meticulous matters.1
This kind of thing was obviously very stupid. She had to be aware of the resources in almost every auction house, and she would adjust whatever she lacked.
After doing it for two days, she felt that it was both troublesome and boring. Thus, she found a few junior disciple s and had them take responsibility for counting what was missing.
Mu Qingyan felt helpless whenever he saw her. She felt that if the Ling Tian Sect was a week old army, then Hua Ruge was only fit to be a commander.
It was also not because Hua Ruge was lazy, but because she was too distracted and had low execution skills.
At the same time as they were busy with their work, the Nine Regions Chamber of Commerce was also rapidly developing. After they had allied with the Star Moon Sect, the other sects also knew that they were an independent entity, and each one of them came to the door to request for cooperation.
Hua Ruge naturally agreed all at once, thus the Nine Regions Auction House was quickly established. If it wasn't for the fact that Hua Ruge was in the western border running a merchant guild, there wouldn't even be enough time to supply resources.
Hua Ruge realized that since the beginning, the Eight Immortals Sect had gathered a large number of people and now, they had completely disappeared, as if they had never thought of attacking.
Just like this, eight days later, she was currently in the courtyard watching as her subordinate distributed the resources. She then saw the servant hurriedly run into the small courtyard and say: "Owner, Eight Immortals Sect Sect Leader requests an audience."
"Him?" Hua Ruge was shocked, he did not expect Chu Batian to come personally.
This time, even she could not figure out what he meant.
"Mistress, we can't go. We'll help you scout out his intentions." One of the Ling Tian Palace disciples said as he jumped out.
"That's right, this person came with a grudge. He most likely wants to harm you." Another disciple said.
Hua Ruge shook his head: "Even if that's the case, if you guys were to go, it would just be giving me a few more lives. I might as well go directly."
"Mistress, you can't be rash."
"Don't worry, I've been impulsive quite a few times already, and I'm fine now." After Hua Ruge finished speaking, he said to the servant: "Please take a seat in the front hall of the Eight Immortals Sect Master.
She still had the image of a woman, so naturally, she couldn't show herself in public.
When she changed her clothes and went to the front hall, she saw Chu Batian wrapped in a black cloak, with only his head exposed. It was obvious that he had only taken off his hat after entering the house.
"Why has Sect Leader Chu come in person? Just tell me and I'll go down to the Eight Immortal City." Hua Ruge welcomed Chu Batian's gloomy face with a smile still on his face, displaying both politeness and warmth.
In the past, when Chu Batian saw her like this, he would think that she was a philistine businessman. When he saw her again, he knew that this person had always been pretending to be a pig to eat the tiger.
