I Started As the Qin Family Patriarch and Was Bound to the Selection System

Establish Chamber of CommerceLi Mo grew increasingly shocked as he walked; by now, he had already seen seven or eight Martial Spirit Realm Cultivators.

It wasn’t strange to him that Qin Shan, as the Grand Elder of the Qin Family, had a Martial Spirit Realm cultivation, but why were there so many other Martial Spirit Cultivators?

Li Mo did not believe that these Martial Spirit Cultivators were the entirety of the Qin Family’s strength; there were bound to be other hidden Martial Spirit Cultivators.

This number was almost more than what the Mingyue Prefecture possessed.

Soon, Li Mo was led to the main hall. Looking at Qin Yi seated above, Li Mo’s eyes narrowed; he could not see through the aura on Qin Yi’s body.

”Greetings, Patriarch Qin,” Li Mo said with a bow. The pressure Qin Yi gave him was even more terrifying than that of the Prefectural Governor.

Could Qin Yi’s cultivation be at the sixth or seventh stage of the Martial King Realm? Li Mo didn’t even dare to imagine anything higher.

With his current cultivation, Qin Yi could see through Li Mo’s cultivation at a single glance—the first stage of the Martial King Realm.

Qin Yi nodded and said with a slight smile, ”Have a seat. I wonder what business brings Li Mo here today?”

Li Mo’s original intention for coming today was to recruit the Qin Family, but after witnessing the power of the Qin Family and Qin Yi, he simply could not bring himself to speak of it now.

However, as the steward of the Prefectural Governors Mansion, he was someone who had seen great scenes, and he quickly adjusted his mindset.

With a smile on his face, Li Mo congratulated, ”Patriarch Qin, by slaying the Demonic Cultivator, you have removed a threat for our Mingyue Prefecture. I have come on behalf of the Prefectural Governors Mansion to reward you.”

As he spoke, he took out the pre-prepared gifts from his spatial ring and placed them on the table.

Qin Yi said, ”Then I shall thank the Prefectural Governors Mansion.” He then swept the gifts into his ring.

Since the Prefectural Governors Mansion had come to deliver gifts, Qin Yi had no reason not to accept them; even a small amount of resources could help the Family’s development.

Seeing this, Li Mo said with a smile, ”Patriarch Qin, I represent the Prefectural Governors Mansion in inviting you to participate in the Yunmeng Ruins in two months.”

Fearing that Qin Yi might not know about the Yunmeng Ruins, Li Mo continued to explain, ”The Yunmeng Ruins are located at the border of three prefectures and are the ruins of a Martial Emperor Family.”

”When the ruins open, all the powerful forces in the Great Yan Kingdom will go there.”

Originally, as a Great Martial Master Family, the Qin Family would not have been qualified to enter the Yunmeng Ruins; only forces with Martial Spirit Cultivators were allowed entry.

”Ding, the appearance of a Martial Emperor Family’s ruins has been detected.”

Option One: Lead the Family into the Yunmeng Ruins and become the biggest winner. Reward: The Host’s cultivation will increase by three minor stages, and one Martial Emperor Physical Body Reshaping Pill.

Option Two: Refuse to enter the Yunmeng Ruins and stay low to develop. Reward: The Host’s cultivation will increase by two minor stages, and ten thousand Mid-Grade Spirit Stones.

”I choose Option One.”

With Qin Yi’s current cultivation and the Qin Family’s overall strength, they definitely had the chance to become the biggest winners in the Yunmeng Ruins.

As the ruins of a Martial Emperor Family, there would certainly be no shortage of resources inside.

Qin Yi nodded and said, ”Fine. In two months, our Qin Family will certainly arrive at the Yunmeng Ruins.”

Seeing Qin Yi agree, the Prefectural Governors Mansion’s first attempt to establish good relations could be considered a success.

Li Mo said with a smile, ”Patriarch Qin, then we shall meet again at the Yunmeng Ruins in two months.”

”I won’t disturb Patriarch Qin any longer; I’ll take my leave now.”

Qin Yi nodded, looked at Qin Shan, and said, ”Grand Elder, go and see Li Mo out.”

”Yes,” Qin Shan obeyed.

Qin Yi sat in the main hall and pondered. The Qin Family’s overall strength was no longer weak, and they could establish a chamber of commerce to earn Spirit Stones.

With the continuous development of the Qin Family, the resources consumed were also massive... The next day, in the Qin Family’s main hall, Qin Yi sat at the head.

Seated on both sides of the hall were the Three Great Elders and all the Deacons of the Qin Family.

Qin Yi announced, ”From today onwards, my Qin Family will establish the Tianyun Chamber of Commerce, to be managed by the Second Elder.”

”According to the information gathered by the Secret Guards, there are only two Martial Spirit families in the nearby cities, and the strongest among them is only at the third stage of the Martial Spirit Realm.”

”Second Elder, you must make the Tianyun Chamber of Commerce famous in the surrounding areas with extreme speed.”

The Second Elder, stood up and said firmly, ”By your command. I will certainly give my all and not fail the Patriarch’s trust.”

Qin Yi nodded and added, ”At the same time, I will dispatch fifty Secret Guards of the Martial Spirit Realm to assist in the development of the Tianyun Chamber of Commerce.”

”This is the initial capital for creating the chamber of commerce. If you are short on manpower, you can seek help from other families in Mo City.”

As he spoke, Qin Yi took out a spatial ring containing five million Low-Grade Spirit Stones.

”Understood,” the Second Elder obeyed.

All the other families in Mo City had already submitted to the Qin Family; such labor should not be left unused.

With a flicker of his figure, Qin Yi disappeared from the hall, leaving other Family matters to be discussed by the Three Great Elders and the various Deacons.

After all, it was impossible for Qin Yi to handle every single matter of the Qin Family.

The Three Great Elders and the Deacons could make decisions, and Qin Yi would personally handle only the matters they were uncertain about.

The back mountain.

Qin Yi sat cross-legged on a huge rock. After these days of continuously Cultivating the Great Desolation Palm,

Qin Yi had a premonition that he was about to touch the Major Achievement Realm.

Gradually, as Qin Yi Cultivated, a Desolate aura emanated from his body, even more dense than before.

Bang! Bang!

The surrounding flowers, grass, and trees withered as their vitality dissipated. The originally vibrant back mountain was now enveloped in a Desolate aura.

Simultaneously, a giant palm ten zhang in size formed behind Qin Yi, entwined with desolation.

Slowly, the giant palm continued to grow, expanding from ten zhang to twenty zhang, and the aura of desolate death it carried became even more intense.

”Major Achievement Realm,” Qin Yi muttered to himself as he opened his eyes.

”Now, with the Major Achievement of the Great Desolation Palm, the Martial King Experts in the Great Yan Kingdom are simply not my match.”

A Heaven Rank High Grade Martial Skill was indeed terrifying.

”Qin Yi, get out here right now!”

A deafening roar echoed over the Qin Family, instantly attracting the attention of many people.

A middle-aged woman dressed in blue with a hot figure stood in mid-air, her face cold as she gripped her sword.

”Flying through the air... she’s actually a Martial King Expert! Who is this woman?”

”How does this woman in blue dare to be so arrogant over the Qin Family? You should know the last one was Elder You Ming, and he was slapped to death by Patriarch Qin long ago.”

”But looking at her clothes, she seems to be an Elder of the Qingyun Sect. Could she be here to cause trouble for the Qin Family?”

Someone noticed the Qingyun Sect emblem on the blue-clothed woman’s clothes, which was exclusive to Elders.

”Yeah, now that you mention it, it really seems possible.”

Everyone recalled that when Su Yanran left the Qin Family that day, her expression was extremely unsightly; she must have suffered some grievance at the Qin Family.

Seeing the angry look of the blue-clothed woman now, could she be here to find trouble for the Qin Family?

”I wonder if the Qin Family can withstand this. You should know that the Qingyun Sect is a Sect with a Martial Emperor Expert backing it.”

Hearing the discussions below, the blue-clothed woman above looked indifferent, her face still as cold as frost.

This was the Third Elder of the Qingyun Sect, named Third Elder. Her cultivation had reached the fifth stage of the Martial King Realm, which was the capital that allowed her to be so overbearing.

She could kill someone with a first-stage Martial King cultivation like Elder You Ming with a single sword strike.

Hearing the voice, Qin Yi quickly arrived from the back mountain, flying into the sky to confront the blue-clothed woman.

Qin Yi looked at her with an unfriendly gaze and said, ”Who are you, and why are you trespassing on the Qin Family’s grounds?”
