Son-in-law Heaven Emperor Xiao Yi-Chapter 314 Hundred Herbs Chamber of Commerce

Heavenly Treasure Chamber of Commerce, within the main hall.

A dead silence filled the area, as everyone stared dumbfounded at Tan Huajian, who had become a headless corpse lying in a pool of blood.

This was the young master of the Tan Family.

To have been publicly killed like this was a major incident!

The look in people's eyes when they turned to Xiao Yi was full of deep awe and shock. Of course, there were quite a few who gazed at him and Along with schadenfreude and mockery, "You two are dead meat, the Tan Family is a giant in Beast Emperor City!"

"They control the slave market and have many powerful followers under their command. Killing Tan Huajian will surely bring about the Tan Family's retribution!"

"Especially that big guy, he's a slave! To dare turn on his master, he's going to be dismembered..."

Murmurs ran through the crowd.

Along looked at Xiao Yi with a worried expression.

He had also been seduced by the promise of freedom that Xiao Yi talked about, and had killed Tan Huajian in a rage after being humiliated over and over again by him. Now that he had calmed down, he was filled with regret.

A slave turning on his master was a serious offense.

Xiao Yi laughed and said, "Afraid of what? They are talking about a slave turning on his master, but you are not a slave!"

"I—I'm not a slave?"

Along paused, looking incredulously at Xiao Yi.

Ever since he could remember, he had been a slave, and countless of his tribe members were slaves as well.

Along had forgotten when was the last time he hadn't been branded with a slave mark.

Xiao Yi patted his shoulder, laughing, "Don't worry, from now on you are my companion. Since you are a companion, you are naturally free. How could you possibly be a slave?"

"But the Tan Family..." Along hesitated.

He was acutely aware of how terrifying the Tan Family was!

His people had once lived carefree on a remote island above the Beast Emperor Sea.

It was the appearance of the Tan Family, like demons, slaughtering, looting, and capturing... that nearly wiped out his tribe. Many of his fellow tribesmen, who had suffered the same fate, were still in the Tan Family's slave market.

Xiao Yi patted his shoulder again and smiled, "We can't stay here long; let's go somewhere else to look around."

The strongest of the Tan Family was only a Dharma Manifestation Realm level-one strongman, and with Xiao Yi's current strength, even if a Dharma Manifestation Realm level-three expert were to come after him, he was confident he could escape unscathed.

That was the confidence that had emboldened him to behead Tan Huajian!

The two of them had just left.

A group of powerful warriors clad in battle armor appeared within the Heavenly Treasure Chamber of Commerce.

Looking at the headless corpse, this group of law enforcers felt a tingling on their scalps. Killing fights were forbidden in Beast Emperor City, yet someone from the Tan Family had died, and a slave of the Tan's was taken away.

This was a major incident.

The leader of the Law Enforcement Team rubbed his brow, feeling a headache coming on, "Send Tan Huajian's body back to the Tan Family. This is no longer something we can intervene in; let the Tan Family deal with it themselves!"

......

Hundred Herbs Chamber of Commerce.

Xiao Yi looked at Along, who had changed into a new set of clothes and was holding a roasted beast leg, savoring it deliciously, speechlessly asking, "Is that thing really so tasty?"

Along rolled his eyes, his mouth greasy, and mumbled indistinctly, "I can't remember the last time I ate meat!"

Xiao Yi paused mid-step, frowning, "Along, are there many slaves in this Beast Emperor City?"

"Hmm!"

Along nodded, his eyes red as he spoke, "All under the control of the Tan Family. Just from my tribe alone, more than ten thousand of our people have been made slaves by them."

Xiao Yi frowned, "How are these slaves in terms of talent?"

"Talent?"

Along paused, thought for a moment, and said, "Those who are kept by the Tan Family as slaves generally have some talent. However, those with truly high talent are all in the Slave Battlefield, kept by various powers as tools for gambling and entertainment!"

At the mention of the Slave Battlefield, Along involuntarily exuded a terrifying Evil Qi.

That was the slaughterhouse of slaves.

A paradise for the high and mighty!

Countless slaves battled for their lives on the Slave Battlefield, and freedom from slavery was theirs if they could secure a hundred victories. But how many could achieve a hundred wins?

Even the mighty Along had only won sixty-five battles so far.

Xiao Yi stroked his chin and said, "The Tan Family has such a vast slave resource in their hands. If I could find more people with Along's talent to bring back and make them disciples of my Xiaoshanhe Institute, why should my institute worry about not prospering?"

At this thought.

Xiao Yi's eyes gleamed brighter, but he was well aware that behind the Tan Family stood Sha Kun, who was a sixth-level expert in the Dharma Manifestation Realm. With his current strength, confrontation was not an option. "It seems I must find a way to enhance my realm first. The matter of the slaves can wait!"

"Institute Head, the people from the Hundred Herbs Chamber of Commerce have arrived!" Along's voice rang in his ear.

Xiao Yi looked ahead and saw a beautiful figure in a red dress with a curvaceous and graceful silhouette approaching. A beauty mark sat by her lips, and she smiled charmingly, "Shi Feiya pays respects to the young master. I hear you're looking for me for a big trade?"

Shi Feiya had striking beauty and a natural allure.

Every frown and smile seemed to stir the heart.

"Xiao Yi has met President Shi!"

Xiao Yi, with a mind unmoved, clasped his hands toward her and said, "I wish to purchase a large quantity of medicinal materials. May I inquire if President Shi is interested?"

Shi Feiya was startled and raised her eyebrows. "Mister Xiao, may I ask just how 'large' is the volume you speak of?"

Xiao Yi threw out a list. "As stated in the list!"

Shi Feiya took the list and couldn't help but gasp.

Even though her Hundred Herbs Chamber of Commerce was one of the three major medicinal material chambers in Beast Emperor City, it was rare to see an order of such magnitude. According to the list, the annual transaction amount was over a hundred billion.

However...

Shi Feiya furrowed her brows slightly and said gravely, "Mister Xiao, our Hundred Herbs Chamber of Commerce can certainly handle this order, but the problem is your Xiaoshanhe Institute is located within the Great Qian Dynasty. That's the territory of Medicine King Valley. Aren't you afraid of offending them by working with us?"

"What? Is President Shi afraid of Medicine King Valley?" Xiao Yi said with a hint of jest.

"Yes indeed, I'm just a defenseless woman, and Medicine King Valley is the overlord of the Southern State. How could I not be afraid?" Shi Feiya raised her eyebrows with a seductive and vulnerable look that could not help but provoke a protective instinct in others.

Xiao Yi smiled. "If so, I'll just find someone else!"

Watching Xiao Yi turn to leave.

Shi Feiya's enticing and vulnerable expression froze. Stamping her foot in vexation and gritting her teeth, she called out, "Please wait a moment, Mister Xiao..."

"Hm?"

Xiao Yi looked at her with amusement.

Shi Feiya said helplessly, "This order is also a great opportunity for the Hundred Herbs Chamber of Commerce, but it requires further discussion. Please come back to this place after three days, and I promise to give you an answer. How does that sound?"

Xiao Yi shook his head. "No later than tomorrow!"

"This..." Discover hidden content at novelbuddy

Shi Feiya hesitated and, seeing Xiao Yi's firm demeanor, relented, "Alright, I'll have an answer for you tomorrow!"

Xiao Yi nodded and then asked, "President Shi, may I ask if there's any place worth visiting in Beast Emperor City?"

"A place worth visiting?"

Shi Feiya's brows slightly furrowed and her eyes lit up. "Mister Xiao must have just broken through to the Tao Tribulation Realm, right? In the west of the city, there is a Cave of Desire. You might want to try visiting it; perhaps you'll come across an unexpected gain!"

"Cave of Desire?"

Xiao Yi raised an eyebrow and clasped his hands toward her. "Thank you for the suggestion, President Shi. I'll be back tomorrow to discuss the matter!"

Watching the retreating figure of Xiao Yi.

Shi Feiya's lips curled slightly at the corners, revealing a dimple near the beauty mark, "What an interesting young man..."
