I Can See Through Everything - Chapter 534

Chapter 534: The Supreme Lord of the Upper Realm, Master Yu

“Once you receive our signal, simply place this array disk near the mysterious talisman maker’s cave to activate it.

You won’t need to do anything else.”

Master Qiu recalled the mysterious man’s words and looked at the sealed array disk in his hand.

A sense of unease welled up within him.

He could vaguely sense that something ominous was sealed within the array disk.

Once released, it would likely unleash unimaginable consequences.

However, thinking of the conditions the mysterious man had promised, and the recent oppression he’d received from the slave girl,

Master Qiu suppressed his unease.

Since the slave girl had treated him this way, he couldn’t blame him for being ungrateful. A

sinister look filled Master Qiu’s eyes.

While Master Qiu resented the significant drop in his income

, many businesses in the city were also discontent with their earnings from the previous month.

At Tianjifang, the owner of the shop, his face grim, he looked at the account book in his hand.

“Our revenue last month was completely cut in half?”

“Master, our Tianji Fang’s talismans used to be the most popular in Canglan City.

But after Treasure House released their new talismans last month, the vast majority of cultivators in the city turned exclusively to them for their purchases.

Not only did our talismans become virtually unsaleable, but even the sales of our magic weapons and elixirs were significantly impacted,”

the beautiful woman explained.

“Treasure House!”

Master Tianji spat out the name with gritted teeth.

“Have you completed the task I asked you to perform last time? Is Qiu Rong willing to help us?”

“We’ve already done it, and the items have been delivered to him. But Qiu Rong is incredibly greedy. He’s actually demanding 100,000 low-grade spirit stones before he’s willing to cooperate with us.

And he won’t do anything until we have the spirit stones.”

“100,000 low-grade spirit stones? You have a big appetite!”

Upon hearing this, Master Tianji’s eyes darkened again, a murderous intent rising within him.

He hadn’t expected a mere appraiser in the middle Jindan realm to dare to make such an outrageous request.

However, thinking of the current situation, he temporarily suppressed his murderous intent. He

said coldly, “Promise him first, then tell him that after receiving the spirit stones, he must do his job properly. Otherwise, he should know the consequences.”

“Yes, I’ll do it right away,”

the beautiful woman replied, and was about to go out to make arrangements.

But at that moment, a man hurried in, his face panicked.

“Master, the Supreme Lord from the Upper Realm has arrived. He’s already outside.”

“What did you say?!”

This startled the Master of Tianji Shop abruptly, his face filled with astonishment.

“According to the usual date, isn’t it five days? How come he’s here so soon this time?”

“I don’t know, but the Supreme Lord has indeed arrived, and he’s not alone. He’s accompanied by a young Supreme Lord and an old servant. And from the looks of it, the Supreme Lord is very respectful to the young Supreme Lord,”

the subordinate replied in awe.

“There is another young venerable?”

The heart of the Tianjifang master trembled again, and a bad premonition came to his mind.

He hurried out, and when he arrived at the main hall in front, he saw a noble young man with star-like eyebrows and sword-like eyes, wearing mysterious and gorgeous robes, sitting on the main seat.

And the Supreme Lord who came to collect the spirit stones every three years in the past was standing respectfully behind him.

There was also an old servant with an old face standing beside him.

“Master Yu!”

When the Tianjifang master saw the noble young man clearly, his body was shocked, and he bowed to greet him.

At the same time, his heart was even more panicked.

He never expected that the person who came down this time was the master Yu of the main family.

How could such a small matter as collecting spirit stones alarm this person?

“Uncle Qian, long time no see. I heard that you were transferred to Xiaocangjie to manage the business more than 20 years ago.

” Over the years, you’ve managed the business down there very well.

It just so happened that during my recent retreat, I happened upon the treasurer coming down to collect a debt. Since I had nothing better to do, I

decided to come down and pay you a visit. It’s a good opportunity to see the customs and practices of this lower realm and broaden my horizons.”

The elegant young man said with a smile. However,

the Tianji Fangzhu’s master felt a cold sweat trickle down his spine.

The praise for his excellent management of the business made him tremble even more.

He knew the man’s character well.

Despite his currently affable demeanor, once enraged, his fury could reach a thousand miles, sending countless forces trembling in fear.

There was no other way. As one of the thirty-six upper clans of the Tianyuan Great World, the Gongshu family possessed such power.

“Young Master Yu, you are so kind. I am deeply apprehensive,” Tianji Fangzhu said with an apologetic smile. “

But Uncle Qian, when I came in just now, I saw that there seemed to be very few customers outside. Could it be that something’s going on in the city today that’s keeping everyone away?” “

The elegant young man suddenly changed the subject and started asking.

The owner of Tianjifang was stunned.

He wanted to make excuses, but he knew that if his lie was discovered in front of this person, he would probably die a more miserable death.

After weighing it in his mind, he immediately knelt down with a plop.

“Master Yu, I am guilty!”

“Oh, what crime?” The elegant young man said lightly.

“I have failed to manage the business well. Now the business of Tianjifang is not as good as before. The customers who come to buy treasures are getting fewer and fewer every day. I am really unworthy of the master’s high hopes. “

The owner of Tianjifang cried.

His voice and tears, his face full of shame, made the beautiful woman and others in the corner stunned.

They had never seen the owner like this.

In the past, when the venerables from the upper world came to collect debts, although he was also nervous, he was never as frightened as he is now.

However, the elegant young man was not moved by the crying of the owner of Tianjifang.

He didn’t even change his expression, but still said lightly: “Tell me, what’s going on?”

“It’s like this, Master Yu, just last month, a business called Zhenbaolou in the city launched a batch of new talismans…”

The owner of Tianjifang told the story of what happened last month.

Of course, in the process of narration, he couldn’t help but add fuel to the fire about the behavior of Zhenbaolou disregarding industry rules and wantonly destroying the price of talismans.

“Is there such a thing? “

After hearing this, the elegant young man showed a hint of surprise on his face.

Even the two old men with obscure auras behind him were surprised.

“What kind of talismans are those launched by the Treasure House that are so popular?”

“These are the talismans. Master Yu, please have a look.”

The owner of Tianjifang took out several talismans from his storage magic tool and presented them to him.

When the elegant young man took the talismans and examined them,

he said again: “The power of these talismans is actually just like that, not much different from the talismans in our shop.

But the Treasure House has lowered their prices too much, and they have planned it in advance.

They prepared a large number of these low-priced talismans and directly occupied the entire Canglan City talisman market.

As a result, not only our Tianjifang, but also the talisman business of other businesses in the city has been extremely bleak, and almost no one buys them. “

This talisman is quite interesting. The person who refined it, who could transform low-grade spirit jade into a talisman of this caliber, is quite a talent.”

The noble young man, possessing profound cultivation and a profound family background,

immediately saw the profound nature of the talisman and exclaimed in admiration.

However, after the praise, his expression grew even colder.

“But this Treasure House is quite ignorant of its limits. Could it possibly steal my Gongshu family’s business like this?”
