In the splendid and spacious hall, more than twenty people were sitting on their seats, either closing their eyes slightly, looking around, or talking in low voices.
In a corner of the lobby, there were also several figures sitting with ugly faces.
It was none other than Yan Jiujiang, the elder of Bamiang Trading Company, and several direct descendants of Patriarch Qingyun, including Huang Ying.
Huang Ying's eyes wandered, but most of them fell on Chen Lin and Zhang Zhenqian. She didn't know what she was thinking.
The four of them, Chen Lin and Chen, were sitting together and communicating in low voices.
Originally, the method of sound transmission was used, but later, in order to show that they and the Five Friends of Heaven were in alliance, Lu Xiaoyin stopped using sound transmission, and the tone of his voice was much higher, attracting frequent glances from those present.
This kind of high-profile move is not what Chen Lin likes, but since he has formed an alliance, he really needs to let others know about it, so that people who have ulterior motives for him will be afraid.
Not only was it good for him, but Qin Lingyu and others also benefited.
After talking for a while, Lu Xiaoyin stopped talking and closed his eyes slightly, as if he was tired and wanted to take a rest.
Chen Lin quietly looked at the people present, and then sent a message to Zhang Zhenqian and Yue Tian to ask for information about these people.
"Brother, do you know these people? Let me introduce them to my little brother so that I can also know who they are."
Chen Lin sent a message to Zhang Zhenqian, saying that since they are sworn brothers, there is no need to be polite.
Zhang Zhenqian's mouth twitched, but he still slowly transmitted the message and introduced all the monks he knew.
He had been the director of Bamenian Trading Company for many years, and basically knew everyone present. He introduced him for half an hour, secretly complaining that this sworn sworn relationship was not reliable, otherwise he would have to ask for some reward for such information. When Chen Linzai killed him before But there is no mercy at all.
Chen Lin listened and nodded secretly, very satisfied.
At the same time, I also saw what it means to make money move people's hearts.
The people present were all strong, and they were basically in the Void Refining Realm. The few cultivators who transformed themselves into gods were all representatives of major forces.
People of this status have also put down their dignity and engaged in deception and robbery.
However, Ba Mian Trading Company has been operating for countless years and possesses countless rare treasures, so it is inevitable that people will be attracted by it.
In the past, due to the peaceful cultivation atmosphere in this world and the fact that Patriarch Qingyun was good at dancing, it was possible to maintain it. But now that Patriarch Qingyun has been missing for a long time, his life and death are not known, and the relationship between them has also faded.
Moreover, after the great change, the delicate balance of the forces of all parties was broken. This piece of fat was clearly placed here. No matter who took action, Yan Jiujiang and other descendants of Qingyun Patriarch would never be able to hold it.
Yan Jiujiang and others also knew this, and had always wanted to find a strong Void Refiner as a backer.
Originally, it was done secretly, and people with reliable character were selected to contact them.
However, when the news leaked out, several powerful people immediately expressed their willingness to support the trading company, but Yan Jiujiang and others did not dare to agree. Not to mention that these people's intentions were not pure. Once they agreed, they would lead the wolf into the house, and whoever agreed and did not agree was also a loser. If the problem is not handled well and a certain strong person is offended, they will all be in danger of being killed.
In desperation, we can only send out invitations to all parties to come and negotiate. We must release all the interests of the trading company and let these powerful people distribute it by themselves. We only need to ensure their safety.
Of course, they also left a lot of treasures in advance, enough for them to practice for a long time.
After Chen Lin learned the inside story, he was also filled with sadness.
Previously, Yan Jiujiang had contacted him through people and invited him to be a merchant, but he refused.
At that time, he showed to the outside world that he was still a perfect god, but he only had the record of killing the ancestor Ling Tian. The other party who found him was either desperate or felt that he was not a monk cultivating the void, and the other party could still grasp the words of the trading company.
If you have the right, you will not be occupied by doves and magpie nests.
But he knew very well that Ba Mian Trading Company was a big fat guy and his small body couldn't hold it down, so naturally he wouldn't agree.
While he was thinking, the crowd suddenly fell silent and everyone looked towards the door.
Chen Lin also looked at him sideways.
I saw a group of several people walking in from the outside slowly and slowly. The leader was dressed in palace attire, dignified and elegant. He was Xin Shangxiu, the head of the Xin family.
He was followed by two men, equally imposing.
Chen Lin also knew them all. One was Ba Yeyu, the president of the Presbyterian Church in Wanling Mountains, and the other was Duanmu Jue, the Supreme Elder of the True Intention Sect of Beiyuan Continent.
These three people appeared together last time in Tianyi Sect, and now they are together again. They have obviously formed an alliance.
Xin Yueling and two other men followed behind the three of them. They also had strong auras and looked like they were in the Void Refining Realm.
The combination of these six people is extremely powerful. If the resuscitator had not appeared, it would have dominated the Lingyuan Continent.
All the monks present immediately stood up to say hello. Xin Shangxiu had accumulated prestige for a long time, and no one dared to neglect him.
Xin Yueling glanced at Chen Lin and others and nodded slightly.
Xin Shangxiu seemed to be showing some good intentions, and smiled and greeted everyone for a while, but before they could sit down, another group of people walked in.
Seeing these people, Chen Lin's eyes suddenly shrank.
The leader is a woman, who is completely opposite to Xin Shangxiu. She is not dignified at all, but charming. She is dressed in tulle that makes the scenery inside vaguely visible. Her gaze is full of provocation. She does not look like a girl from a good family.
It is Mrs. Saraswati.
As soon as she appeared, the attitude of the monks was even more enthusiastic than when they had just welcomed Xin Shangxiu.
They rushed over quickly.
Although they both belong to the seventh level of Daoyun, Mrs. Miaoyin's reputation is much more powerful now than that of Xin Shangxiu.
Even Chen Lin had to admit this.
The opponent is so far the only strong man who can confront the resuscitator head-on. He has become the spiritual leader among the monks, and even made bold promises to form a monk alliance.
However, because those resuscitators have not shown up and many powerful forces are waiting and watching, this alliance has not been formed for the time being.
"Fifth brother, did you see the red-haired man next to Mrs. Miaoyin? That is Ye Hongdao. This man is extremely powerful in combat and has a cold and arrogant personality. You must be careful if you encounter him in the future."
Chen Lin was looking at it when he heard Lu Xiaoyin transmitting a message to him.
Although he was speechless at being called fifth brother, the other person's caring gesture still warmed his heart. He did feel a bit like a big sister.
It's just that this eldest lady is a bit young.
Chen Lin nodded slightly to show his understanding, and his expression became solemn.
Although I don't know this person, the name Ye Hongdao is like thunder to my ears. He is a ninth-level Tao Yun powerhouse and the pinnacle of cultivation in this world. It is difficult not to know.
However, he did not agree with Lu Xiaoyin's evaluation of this person. When walking around, it was obvious that this person was dominated by Mrs. Miaoyin. How could a woman like Mrs. Miaoyin be taken under his command? How cold and arrogant could he be?
After Mrs. Miaoyin came in, she looked around, first paused at Chen Lin, then chuckled and looked at Xin Shangxiu.
"Haha, why did Sister Xin leave so quickly? You didn't even ask me to wait for you. My sister is only interested in men. Are you afraid that she will eat you up?
As he spoke, he swayed in front of Xin Shangxiu, as if he was very intimate.
Xin Shangxiu glanced at her, but said calmly: "Now Madam is in the prime of her life, and there is no shortage of people around her to please me, so she did not come forward to disturb her. Please forgive me."
Before Madam Miaoyin could speak, she continued: "But with Madam's status, why would she come to such a philistine place in person? Can't you just send one of your subordinates here? Who among the people present would dare not to give you face?"
?”
When he mentioned the word 'subordinate', Xin Sangxiu took a deep look at the red-haired man next to him.
A trace of embarrassment suddenly flashed in the red-haired man's eyes, and he looked at Xin Shangxiu coldly, but Xin Shangxiu just smiled sarcastically and ignored him.
Chen Lin saw this scene and immediately sent a message to Lu Xiaoyin: "This Ye Hongdao and the head of the Xin family seem to be having some trouble. Do you know the situation?"
When two top players compete, no one can guarantee that they will not be affected. Some things need to be clarified.
Lu Xiaoyin snickered and said: "It is rumored that these two people used to be lovers, but later they broke up for unknown reasons. Now Ye Hongdao is actually involved with Mrs. Miaoyin. It's strange that Patriarch Xin is happy."
Unexpectedly, there was such a secret, Chen Lin couldn't help but secretly marveled.
At the same time, I also felt that something was going to go wrong at today's gathering, and a fight might break out soon.
But he was also puzzled, how could people with the status of Mrs. Miaoyin and Xin Shangxiu come here in person?
Although Bahian Trading Company has amassed a lot of wealth, it is only somewhat attractive to casual cultivators and general forces. For such powerful people, it is dispensable and they will not put down their dignity and come to fight for it.
Confused, he sent a message to Lu Xiaoyin to ask.
Lu Xiaoyin shook his head and replied: "I don't know, but it seems that there is an inside story about this matter. You will act based on my eyes in a while."
Chen Lin was speechless for a while.
This woman is completely different after becoming the eldest sister. She always pretended to be young before, but now she pretends to be old.
The other party was not very reliable, and Chen Lin did not count on the other party. Instead, he sent a message to Zhang Zhenqian and Yue Tianyi.
But neither of them knew the inside story.
Zhang Zhenqian sent a message and said: "Fifth brother and third sister have a good relationship. Why don't we send a message to ask third sister? She will definitely know."
Chen Lin no longer knew what to say. This guy with thick eyebrows, big eyes, and a rough appearance had also turned bad.
It was so natural for the other party to call him sister or brother, so he naturally had to follow suit. As the fifth oldest child, he could only call him brother or sister. From then on, the other party could instruct him on any matter as a matter of course.
So he simply pretended not to hear.
Zhang Zhenqian waited for a while and saw that Chen Lin's eyes were slightly closed, he was drowsy, and his face was dark.
But before he could transmit the message again, he felt a terrifying aura suddenly appear, and then black mist rolled in, and the entire hall was shrouded in black mist.
Everyone was shocked, and Chen Lin immediately flew up. His soul armor technique was instantly activated, and at the same time, thin green vines appeared on his body!
