Immortality begin with Alchemy Grandmaster

Chapter 2194: Chapter 806: Tianyuan Agent, Arrested in Anti-Prostitution Raid

Heavenly Fragrance Pavilion, within the Warm Jade Pavilion.

After a few drinks, with the fragrance of beauties in the air and dancers performing in front of him, Gu Zuokai’s recent melancholy eased quite a bit.

He did not expect Luo Chen to invite him to such a place for entertainment.

In his impression, Luo Chen, who was once a North Sea Independent Cultivator, likely favored peace and quiet. Now bearing the title of the Alchemy Sect, it further highlights his usual life of simplicity, for how else could one master a Grandmaster Level Pill Refinement Technique without enough diligent practice?

This kind of brothel entertainment indeed seemed quite out of place with Luo Chen.

And it did appear to be the case.

Though Luo Chen wore a smile, he sat upright, barely acknowledging the women cautiously pouring wine and serving food by his side.

It was clear that such an arrangement was not merely for old times’ sake.

After three rounds of toasts and some idle chatter, Gu Zuokai set down his wine cup.

”Brother Luo, if you have something to say, just say it!”

Luo Chen smiled slightly, dismissed everyone, leaving only the three maidens by his side.

”I heard Brother Gu almost succeeded in establishing the Tianyuan Business Alliance in Lingtian Pass?”

Gu Zuokai sighed, ”There was indeed such a matter. I had already negotiated with the Five Great Sects of the Five Domains of Lingtian, even selected the location, but was stopped at the last moment by the Lingtian City Lord.”

”What did they say?” Luo Chen asked.

Gu Zuokai answered helplessly, ”What else could they say, they just stalled and postponed, now they directly shut the door, anyway, they simply won’t allow our Tianyuan Business Alliance to settle in.”

Luo Chen appeared thoughtful, ”I guess it’s the intention of the Mingyuan Sect!”

The Tianyuan Business Alliance is not just about business; they actually have the role of gathering intelligence from various continents and recruiting talents for the Tianyuan Daoist Sect.

He guessed that the Mingyuan Sect wanted to weaken the Eastern Wasteland Immortal Cultivators, then personally step in to repel the Demon Clan army, ultimately imitating the Tianyuan Daoist Sect to dominate the Eastern Wasteland in one stroke!

In these circumstances, if the Tianyuan Business Alliance contacts Nascent Soul experts from all sides, it undoubtedly gives the Eastern Wasteland Nascent Soul experts a retreat.

Then, who would stand against the Demon Clan army?

Moreover, after the incident with the Alchemy Saint, how could the Mingyuan Sect sit idly while the Tianyuan Daoist Sect continues to grow?

In recent years, North Sea, South Border, and even West Desert have seen more Nascent Soul experts recruited by the Tianyuan Daoist Sect, except here in the Eastern Wasteland, where the Mingyuan Sect firmly guards, allowing few Nascent Soul experts into the Heaven and Earth Peak.

Ah, Luo Chen is an exception.

Gu Zuokai was clearly aware that there was the intention of the Eastern Wasteland Holy Land Mingyuan Sect behind the halted construction of the Commercial Alliance, otherwise why would Lingtian City Lord return all the gifts he sent?

The fact that they completely turned down the gestures showed the presence of an even stronger directive.

Luo Chen lifted his head and asked, ”If the Lingtian City Lord continues to disagree, will you continue to waste time at Lingtian Pass?”

Gu Zuokai halted the hand that had just picked up the wine cup.

This task of setting up a Commercial Alliance branch during the chaos was a mission passed down from the Daoist Sect.

If he abandoned it midway, even as a member of the Ancient Gu Family, things would not end well for him.

”Brother Gu, have you ever considered a compromise?”

Gu Zuokai frowned, ”Do you mean to go to the rear?”

Luo Chen nodded, ”Exactly. If they don’t allow you to conduct business at Lingtian Pass, then going to the rear is also fine. This way, you wouldn’t be competing with the Mingyuan Sect and the old Eastern Wasteland Sect shops in the city. At most, it’s just a bit more roundabout and troublesome.”

Gu Zuokai considered this suggestion briefly but then dismissed it.

”According to the Lingtian City Lord, we are not allowed to use the Tianyuan Business Alliance’s name, even at the rear!”

This restriction was rather strict.

The Mingyuan Sect intended to sever the Tianyuan Daoist Sect’s influence completely!

Luo Chen suggested again, ”Then how about conducting business without using the Tianyuan name?”

Conduct business without using the Tianyuan name?

Gu Zuokai was puzzled.

Luo Chen laughed, ”Can’t you just find an agent?”

As he said this, he pointed to himself.

”Humble me has temporarily established a foothold in this Eastern Wasteland, and has a not so large nor small sect to command. You can entrust the Tianyuan Business Alliance’s operations to my Luo Tian Sect. We will act on your behalf, and you can coordinate with us directly.”

Gu Zuokai was stunned.

But this time, he did not immediately refute; instead, he carefully considered the feasibility of this suggestion.

First, Luo Chen in this vast Eastern Wasteland is relatively trustworthy, as he holds the position of Star Gate Envoy for External Affairs!

Secondly, this bypassed the Lingtian City Lord’s prohibitions.

Finally, although he had not fully completed the task assigned by the sect, at least some actions could be reported to the Daoist Sect. Even if Zhongzhou questioned, he could use the reason of a slow and steady approach to soften the situation.

Only, does Luo Tian Sect have the strength now?

It’s important to note that the business involved in the Tianyuan Business Alliance is diverse, essentially competing with those old Eastern Wasteland sects within Lingtian City.

Relying on just a mere Luo Tian Sect, which he didn’t even care for...

Gu Zuokai’s gaze fell upon Luo Chen, and his heart suddenly understood.

The other party primarily referred to himself!

He was not only the formidable Huang Independent Cultivator who once outshined the Daoist Sect geniuses but is now a renowned Alchemy Sect figure in the Eastern Wasteland!

His presence alone carries unparalleled influence!

If he is the primary figure with Luo Tian Sect personnel supporting, while Gu Zuokai’s side provides various supports, there indeed is a chance to establish the Commercial Alliance’s business.

Realizing this, the distress lingering between Gu Zuokai’s brow for many days cleared up instantly.

”Brother Luo, your suggestion is truly brilliant!”

Luo Chen smiled modestly, ”It’s merely beneficial for both parties; I can’t support Luo Tian Sect just by myself as we’ve been without a source of income for too long, we must find something for them to do. Moreover, for you, this task is inherently simple, all it lacks is a trustworthy person.”
