Chapter 105

Huang Pingzhang nodded. "The Cloud Mist Sect was attacked and badly damaged. The outside world is talking about it.

"In a place like Baijing Prefecture, as long as you're weak, there will be many wolves who want to take your meat. Many people think that the Cloud Mist Sect can no longer protect their territory and that other forces will attack them soon.

"My Greedy Wolf City belongs to the Cloud Mist Sect. At such a sensitive time, we must strengthen our defenses."

Gu Chen said with a thoughtful look in his eyes. "Have you ever thought about expanding your territory, Daoist Huang?"

During the confrontation with the Nether God Palace, Gu Chen realized the benefits of having his own force.

He was always alone and couldn't do many things.

If he hadn't tried to sow discord between the two dark forces, he wouldn't have been able to save Cao Xuanbin.

Although the Huang family was still weak, he had already realized that he needed to gradually build up his foundation.

"Daoist Chen, you really want this piece of meat."

Huang Pingzhang smiled. "In fact, with the Old Man's attainment of the Divine Power and your strength, our Greedy Wolf City is now the strongest force in this area, apart from the Cloud Mist Sect.

"This time, the Cloud Mist Sect has suffered a great loss, so we have a chance to expand our territory. If we can take Greedy Wolf City, Seven Kills City, and the Army Destroyer City under our banner, both of us will benefit greatly.

"However, the biggest reason why the Smoke Cloud Sect is able to control this area is because their sect master is a great Nirvana Realm cultivator. Because of this, they have a place in the Whale Alliance, and other forces don't dare to touch this area."

"But now that the Cloud Mist Sect's Sect Master is dead, including the Huang family. Without a new Nirvana cultivator, we won't be able to control the situation. Even if we can expand our territory, we'll have to spit out what we've already eaten when a new force comes in. "

Huang Pingzhang was regretful. "It's a pity that this is a rare opportunity. If the Old Man had improved, we wouldn't have to be so cautious anymore."

Gu Chen knew the difference between the Divine Power realm and the Nirvana realm. Huang Pingzhang didn't have much talent and had just broken through to the Divine Power realm. How could he enter the Nirvana realm?

"Since that's the case, let's just wait and see in the eye of the storm."

Gu Chen thought that the Netherworld God Palace might still be lurking in the Cloud Smoke Sect's territory. It was not a good thing to be too ambitious at this time.

The two reached a tacit agreement. Huang Pingzhang reminded Gu Chen.

"Daoist Chen, since you're back, remember to hand over the mission as soon as possible. Although you've failed this mission, I reckon you'll get some merit points. "

"Zhang" "Qian Jue Granny". "Qian" Gu Chen was surprised.

"The main reason why we failed this mission is because of Thousand Jue Granny. Fellow Daoist Zhu and the others almost died. When they returned to the branch, they were very grateful to you for saving them. They told their superiors what happened. "

"You" Zhang "You". "Mist Mist Sect Has You". "you as I am you"

"You've made quite a name for yourself among the Heavenly Court's Bronze Assassins. After all, not everyone can defeat Qian Jue Granny."

Gu Chen shook his head. "It's all thanks to Daoist Huang. If not for your help, it wouldn't have been so easy to defeat that old hag."

He took out a storage ring and gave it to Huang Pingzhang.

"Daoist Huang deserves a share of the loot from killing Qian Jue and Shi Cong."

Huang Pingzhang hesitated. "The Old Man only shot one arrow."

"That arrow was crucial. Daoist Huang, you don't have to be so polite. We'll have many opportunities to work together in the future. If you don't take it, how will we work together in the future? "

Hearing that, Huang Pingzhang accepted the storage ring without hesitation.

He wanted to tie Gu Chen to the Huang family's ship. This was Huang Pingzhang's way of showing his goodwill!

"So much?" He scanned the storage ring with his divine sense and was shocked.

There were too many cultivation resources in the storage ring that Gu Chen had given him. Its value was far greater than what he had paid for it.

"Daoist Huang, you're at the peak of the Divine Power realm. You're in dire need of resources."

Gu Chen smiled.

In fact, he only picked a few things from Qian Jue Granny's storage ring and gave the rest to Huang Pingzhang.

Huang Pingzhang was rich after picking up the scraps from Acheron Tower and Nether God Palace. This was just a drop in the bucket.

"Daoist Chen, I won't stand on ceremony with the Old Man."

Huang Pingzhang took a deep breath. He was touched.

Not only was this young man talented and smart, but he was also not greedy and willing to share. He wanted him to become the son-in-law of the Huang family more and more.

However, the more outstanding he was, the more he felt that his granddaughter was not worthy of him …

After Gu Chen left Huang Pingzhang's place, he went back to the Celestial Court's branch.

Although he failed the mission, he was not punished. Instead, he was rewarded with 655 merit points.

The Celestial Court questioned him about the details of the mission. Gu Chen repeated what he said to Huang Pingzhang and hid the fact that Cao Xuanbin was at his place.

He did not plan to let anyone know about the God Creation Pavilion for now. This matter could affect everything, so he had to be careful.

After handing over the mission, he sold a large number of cultivation resources in the Merit Market.

These resources came from the assassins of the Nether God Palace and Acheron Tower. He sold everything except those that were useful to him.

The Celestial Court's Merit Market was not only a place to receive missions, but it was also a place to trade.

A large number of assassins sold their things and bought things that were useful to them. It was extremely convenient.

There were two ways to trade. For example, pills and Dharma treasures could be exchanged for Essence Crystals according to the market price outside, or they could be exchanged for merit points exclusive to the Celestial Court.

If they were exchanged for merit points, the price would be slightly lower, but they could be exchanged for some rare treasures that were only provided by the Celestial Court.

Gu Chen felt that this model was extremely smart. The Celestial Court acted as an intermediary, buying and selling at the same time. Not only did it make it convenient for the assassins, but it also gave him a way to make money.

The assassins usually sold things with questionable origins. Through the Celestial Court, they could save themselves from any worries.

This was because the Celestial Court would not investigate the origins of these things. Furthermore, the identity of the seller and buyer would be kept secret.

Gu Chen sold a large number of useless cultivation resources and exchanged them all for merit points.

The value reached a shocking twenty thousand merit points!

A total of twenty thousand merit points. It was far more than the original reward for completing the investigation mission!

One had to know that some Bronze Assassins could stay in the Celestial Court for ten years and could not even accumulate such a large amount of merit points!

"What a pity. If I didn't sell these things to the Celestial Court, but directly to the assassins who bought them, I could earn even more. It's just that I really don't want to waste time."

Gu Chen felt slightly regretful. Some of the missions in the Merit Market were for the assassins of the Celestial Court to buy materials. Some of the materials were already in his possession. If he sold them to the assassins who urgently needed them, he would definitely be able to exchange them for more Essence Crystals or merit points.

However, that would waste a lot of time. It would be far more convenient to sell them directly to the Celestial Court.

With the twenty thousand merit points he had just obtained, Gu Chen went to the market in the Merit Market and chose some cultivation resources that were useful to him.
