Finished talking, Zhao Qian looked at Ye Yuan rather nervously, seemingly awaiting his sentencing.
To Zhao Qian, this was still her first time being so obsequious to another person because of several Tier 5 pill formulas.
Zhao Qian and Ye Yuan’s collaboration was currently restricted to the Ancient Opulence City. Other places were not permitted to sell the medicinal pills Ye Yuan refined.
Therefore, even though these medicinal pills earned massive amounts, it was only specific to the Ancient Opulence City area.
To a leviathan like the Meteor Trading Company, it did not have the slightest benefit at all.
Ye Yuan looked at Zhao Qian and suddenly asked, “What’s your relationship with Zhao Xingchen?”
Zhao Qian was stunned, immediately shaking her head, saying, “Mister Ye is worrying too much. How can Qian-er possibly have any association with Lord Head Chairman?”
She said that verbally, but Zhao Qian was incomparably shocked in her heart.
How did Ye Yuan, an ascender, know the Head Chairman’s name? Could it be that Ye Yuan really had some relationship with the Meteor Trading Company?
Zhao Xingchen this name was not what the average martial artist could know.
Even a holy land’s holy lord might not have the qualifications to know this name.
What made her even more astounded was that Ye Yuan actually guessed her relationship with Zhao Xingchen!
Ye Yuan curled his mouth when he heard that and said, “Doesn’t even have a bit of sincerity. Why did you guys still come and find me to discuss what cooperation? You also know that wanting the pill formulas is somewhat demanding. Then you better save your breath!”
As he said, Ye Yuan was about to leave.
Zhao Qian panicked when she heard that and hurriedly said, “Wait a minute! I … Zhao Xingchen … is my father!”
Ye Yuan did not reveal a surprised look, saying with a smile, “Heh, the exalted Head Chairman’s daughter would actually come to such a small holy land like Crimson Afterglow personally. I’m somewhat curious; what on earth happened to your Meteor Trading Company!”
Zhao Qian bit her lips and said, “You … How do you know about my relationship with my father? Also, how did you know that our Meteor Trading Company encountered a dilemma?”
Ye Yuan said with a smile, “Isn’t that simple? Even though you look exactly like a junior the entire time by Chairman Jiao’s side, the eyes he looks at you with are not right; he seemingly need to seek your opinion for everything. As for your predicament, a place that the Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company can send out an Alchemy Saint, but you guys actually can’t even send out an Alchemy Saint. Isn’t this still obvious? Furthermore, even if my pill formulas can earn a lot of money, they are just Tier 5 pill formulas after all. To a Rank One Holy Land like you all, it’s actually not considered much. But the things that you guys showed are too disparate from your status.”
Hearing Ye Yuan’s words, Jiao Ting was unbelievably shocked at the sides.
This boy’s mind was also meticulous, to actually perceive so many things from such little details.
But Zhao Qian heaved a sigh and said, “I knew that it can’t hide from Mister Ye!”
“Huhu, I didn’t know that Zhao Xingchen had such a pretty daughter. But with your status, why would you come to the Crimson Afterglow Holy Land this sort of place?” Ye Yuan said with a smile.
Zhao Qian shot Ye Yuan a glare, but she still answered, “The Meteor Trading Company encountered an unprecedented crisis. With no choice, the trading company dispatched elite forces to the various regions, wanting to turn the decline around. And my mission was the White Valiant Region and the nearby few regions. I’d just arrived at the White Valiant Region not long. Going to Ancient Opulence City was only to understand the Crimson Afterglow Holy Land’s various cities’ situation a little, so as to find countermeasures. But I didn’t think that I would happen to run into you.”
Ye Yuan frowned and said, “Such a huge crisis actually erupted in the Meteor Trading Company? Could something have happened to Zhao Xingchen?”
In Ye Yuan’s impression, Zhao Xingchen was a very capable person.
He established the Meteor Trading Company single-handedly and developed it to become a titan of the business world comparable to the Heaven’s Destiny Trading Company. His methods could be imagined.
Logically speaking, the Meteor Trading Company would not have such a large-scale defeat occur. Unless some problems happened to the trading company’s upper echelons.
“Father … Father went missing!” Zhao Qian said as a crystalline teardrop fell from the corners of her eye.
“What?! Head Chairman he … he went missing?”
Zhao Qian’s words were akin to a bolt out of the blue, stunning Jiao Ting dumbfounded directly.
A Rank One Holy Land’s holy lord went missing. This implication was too great. Even if Zhao Qian had come to the White Valiant Region for a very long time already, she had never told this matter to the various trading company’s officers in charge before.
Ye Yuan drew a deep breath and said slowly, “So that’s how it is! Alright then, the pill formulas can be given to you. But I’ll only give you all a single type of medicinal pill’s formula. Furthermore … I have a condition.”
“What condition?”
Not getting all of the pill formulas, Zhao Qian was somewhat disappointed. But even if there was only one type of medicinal pill, it was also sufficient to make her incredibly agitated.
Releasing any one type among these medicinal pills would cause a tremendous impact to the scene of conventional medicinal pills. It could be said to be a one-time alchemy world’s revolution!
So even if it was only one type of pill formula, the profits were huge too.
Zhao Qian did not expect that Ye Yuan actually agreed so straightforwardly.
“This medicinal pill is absolutely not permitted to be sold within the boundaries of a super holy land within five years. Otherwise, I’ll likewise sell the pill formula to other trading companies. I think that they will be interested,” Ye Yuan said coolly.
Although the chances of Ji Canglan recognizing was very small, Ye Yuan still had to guard against him.
Of course, along with the passing of time, this kind of medicinal pills would eventually enter Ji Canglan’s field of vision. It was just that at that time, Ye Yuan should already have sufficient strength to protect himself.
Of course, the prerequisite was that if Ji Canglan was really able to connect it to him through these few types of medicinal pills.
Zhao Qian was somewhat uncertain, but she still nodded her head and said, “Fine, I promise you! As for the price … We’ll satisfy you!”
Ye Yuan waved his hand and said, “I don’t want money. I want to buy some intel!”
Chapter 784 - Heaven’s Secret Tower

“Some intel?”
Zhao Qian’s brows furrowed slightly, and she gave Jiao Ting a look, signaling for him to withdraw.
Although Jiao Ting’s cultivation realm was high, at present, there was clearly no right for him to speak already.
One had to know that even if Ye Yuan just sold one pill formula, that was absolutely a sky-high price too.
But Ye Yuan did not want anything and just wanted to buy some intel. It could be seen how valuable they were!
A Rank One Holy Land force like the Meteor Trading Company, their branches could be found all over the Divine Realm. Information was naturally something they were very well-informed of.
Therefore, the scope they operated was not just things like medicinal pills and weapons, but it also included intel.
And these intel, according to the difficulty of acquiring, the prices were naturally not the same either.
Ye Yuan would rather not take the reward and inquire about information. It was definitely extremely valuable information.
“That’s right. Furthermore, y
ou have to swear a Heavenly Dao Oath to absolutely not divulge the matter of me inquiring about intel from you today!” Ye Yuan said solemnly.
Zhao Qian’s expression was slightly apprehensive and knew that this medicinal pill was not easy to get.
But Ye Yuan’s medicinal pills were too important to the Meteor Trading Company. She did not hesitate much and swore a Heavenly Dao Oath very quickly. She then said to Ye Yuan, “Ask away. If it’s information I know, I can answer you right now. If I don’t know, you’ll probably have to wait for a few days.”
Ye Yuan nodded his head and asked, “I want information about the Medicine King Hall. The more detailed, the better!”
Zhao Qian’s gaze sharpened and she could not help re-sizing Ye Yuan up. “What’s your relationship with the Medicine King Hall?”
“We’re undergoing a transaction right now. It’s me asking you questions, not you asking me! According to your rules, only answer questions, and not raise questions!”
Mentioning the Medicine King Hall, Ye Yuan’s entire being became cold. Zhao Qian by the side actually felt a chill somewhat run down her spine.
The Medicine King Hall was already a taboo in the Divine Realm. Ordinary people all kept a respectful distance away.
Now, a puny little Divine Traversing Realm was actually interested in the Medicine King Hall’s information. This inevitably made Zhao Qian produce conjectures about Ye Yuan’s identity.
But Ye Yuan’s words reminded Zhao Qian that no matter how curious she was, she should not ask this kind of questions either.
This violated a great taboo!
If it were another person, they might even turn hostile on the spot, then propagate everywhere that the Meteor Trading Company did not adhere to the rules of the business.
Zhao Qian recollected her thoughts and sucked in a deep breath, saying slowly, “The Medicine King Hall had a dramatic change take place over ten years ago. The Ji father and son both perished. Ji Zhengyang’s eldest disciple inherited the Medicine King Hall and became the new Hall Lord. Ever since then, the Medicine King Hall sealed off all information and chased all of the outside forces out of the holy land, practically sealing off themselves completely from the outside world.”
Ye Yuan frowned when he heard that and said, “Which is also to say that your Meteor Trading Company doesn’t know about the Medicine King Hall’s intel at all?”
Zhao Qian shook her head and said, “You’re also aware, the Meteor Trading Company is just a Rank One Holy Land. It’s on an entirely different level from the Medicine King Hall. Such a colossal titan sealing off all information, we have no way of infiltrating inside at all. If you really wish to inquire about the Medicine King Hall’s information, probably only the Heaven’s Secret Tower has this ability. Now, in the entire Divine Realm, apart from the Heaven’s Secret Tower, probably the Medicine King Hall is the most mysterious. Of course, regarding some side news about the Meteor Trading Company, we’re still aware of them.”
Ye Yuan fell silent. Regarding these information that Zhao Qian told him, it was within his expectations. But it was also outside of his expectations.
The thing within expectations was that the Meteor Trading Company was likely unable to inquire about some core information.
The thing outside of expectations was that he did not know why Ji Canglan wanted to seal off all information about the holy land.
Ji Canglan successfully usurping the throne should be precisely the time he was illustrious, free and unfettered. But he lived a life isolated from the world. What medicine was he selling in his gourd?
“Talk about it,” Ye Yuan suddenly said.
Zhao Qian said, “The Medicine King Hall’s predecessor Hall Lord, Ji Zhengyang, and his son, Ji Qingyun, were both the pinnacle-most peak Alchemy Emperor powerhouses in the current age. Quite a number of Divine King experts in the Divine Realm all received their grace before. Among them included quite a number among the Ten Great Divine Kings! After their father and son pair passed away, there were quite a number of Divine King experts who all paid a visit, wanting an explanation before. Legend has it that the Spirit Bristle Divine King personally went to find the new hall lord, Ji Canglan, but he turned back halfway. As for specific reasons, it was unknown.”
“Second, after the Ji father and son passed away, Ji Canglan did not exterminate everyone ruthlessly, but he let out a batch of people. It was said that these people were all people with close ties to the father and son pair. But after these people came out, they also vanished. Our trading company later attempted to find these people, but we did not find a single one. Of course, this is also because our Meteor Trading Company’s strength is too weak. I believe if it’s the Heaven’s Secret Tower, they should be able to find.”
“Third, eight years ago, the Medicine King Hall once took action and annihilated several major factions. Naturally, the one thing which shocked the Divine Realm most of all was that they made a move and destroyed a quasi-super holy land, the Bloodrain Holy Land, slaughtering the Bloodrain Holy Land’s Divine King powerhouses clean, astounding the Divine Realm! After exterminating these major forces, the Medicine King Hall lowered their banners and muffled their drums, and they did not take action anymore again either. As for the reason they took action, the Medicine King Hall never had mentioned it. Nobody dared to ask either.”
Ye Yuan’s face revealed a solemn expression!
Annihilating a quasi-super holy land with a wave of a hand, the Medicine King Hall’s strength post-Ji Zhengyang’s era did not decrease, but it had increased instead!
Ye Yuan truly could not imagine how Ji Canglan did this.
Looks like wanting to kill Ji Canglan was even harder than imagined!
“Then do you know what strength Ji Canglan is at right now?” Ye Yuan asked.
Zhao Qian shook her head and said, “People who have seen him take action before are all dead! But it can be certain that his present strength is definitely much stronger than in the past! Now, in the Divine Realm, there’s a guess that Ji Canglan’s current strength is likely not beneath the Ten Great Divine Kings already!”
Ten Great Divine Kings was the Divine Realm’s benchmark quality figure.
These Ten Great Divine Kings were not self-proclaimed but given out by the Divine Realm’s most mysterious power, the Heaven’s Secret Tower.
Back then, when they gave out this Ten Great Divine Kings title, the Divine Realm was filled with outrage and questioning voices.
Many divine kings were unconvinced and went to find these Ten Great Divine Kings to fight one-on-one.
But the final result also affirmed the might of the Heaven’s Secret Tower’s information system!
The positions of the Ten Great Divine Kings, no one was able to shake them!
Regardless of how formidable the opponents’ strength was!
They used countless victories to affirm the might of their own strength, and also verified the Heaven’s Secret Tower’s might!
Not only did the Heaven’s Secret Tower give out these Ten Great Divine Kings titles, they even issued the Ten Great Divine Kings power ranking.
Of course, just who was strong or weak among these Ten Great Divine Kings, nobody knew at all.
They had never competed openly among themselves before, and there was also nobody who expressed refusal to concede to this ranking.
Over the course of time, the reputation of the Ten Great Divine Kings was gradually accepted by everyone in the Divine Realm.
If Ji Canglan’s strength was already comparable to the Ten Great Divine Kings, that was absolutely a very troublesome matter.
This level of a powerhouse was on completely different levels from ordinary divine kings.
Unless Ye Yuan could break through to the Divine King Realm, wanting to kill Ji Canglan was absolutely out of the question!
Chapter 785 - Heaven’s Destiny Auction

Due to there being no Deity Realm powe
rhouses, Divine King experts were virtually the Divine Realm’s apex existences.
It was just that between divine kings and divine kings, there was similarly a huge disparity.
Take the Spirit Bristle Divine King for example, his strength was sufficient to instantly kill four or five ordinary divine kings.
Even if he was besieged by numerous divine kings, he also had sufficient assurance to escape alive.
Wanting to kill the Ten Great Divine Kings was virtually a mission impossible to complete.
If Ji Canglan’s strength were really able to reach that sort of degree, the difficulty of Ye Yuan wanting to kill him would be too great.
Ji Canglan was not just his strength alone being formidable; behind him even stood the entire Medicine King Hall.
To be able to lock down the Medicine King Hall’s news so thoroughly, Ji Canglan’s control over the Medicine King Hall had definitely reached a degree unimaginable by the average person already.
After getting a second life, Ye Yuan had always been pleased with the progress of his own strength.
But looking at it now, this vengeance did not seem to be easy to avenge.
Putting aside other things, just talking about strength reaching the level of the Ten Great Divine Kings, it was an extremely difficult thing.
One had to know that these Ten Great Divine Kings, each one of them grasped several supreme true intents.
While Ye Yuan only grasped one supreme true intent right now.
The disparity in-between this was not just a tiny bit!
Talking about supreme true intent was easy. To really comprehend was too difficult, too difficult.
The Quasi-Holy Son selection competition this time, those gathered were all one-in-ten-thousand geniuses. But among them, apart from Ye Yuan, who else was able to comprehend a supreme true intent?
“Fine. If your Meteor Trading Company still have other information related to the Medicine King Hall, send them over to me. Additionally, help me keep an eye on the Medicine King Hall. Once there are any signs of disturbance, immediately notify me. I’ll decide when to give you the other pill formulas according to your information. This is the Tier 5 Essence Restoring Pill’s pill formula. On it has the method to refine this medicinal pill. Take it,” said Ye Yuan and casually threw Zhao Qian a jade slip.
