When I woke up, I wanted to go home.

Chapter 113 Young Master Zhurong Arrives

Young master, do you believe what I just said?

Xiao Feng, along with the remaining elites of the Chamber of Commerce, stood before Elder Qi, whose face looked ashen, alongside Duke Zhurong.

After Elder Qi finished speaking, Prince Zhurong closed his eyes slightly and sighed to the sky!

After calming himself down, Young Master Zhurong asked Elder Qi about the whole story again. Elder Qi then recounted to Young Master Zhurong every single thing he had done since arriving at the vast icy snowfield.

After pondering for a moment, Young Master Zhurong said, "Xiao Feng, there are two things I need you to do."

First, we need to contact the King of Ruixue Kingdom and ask them to cooperate in finding this Ninth Brother. Since the Ninth Brother is based in Ruixue Kingdom, there should be someone within the kingdom who knows some of his secrets.

Secondly, send people to find the Northern Darkness Snow Bear that last saw Ninth Brother. The battle between the many powerful members of the Merchant Guild and Ninth Brother has raged for days, with even Elder Qi joining the fray, causing chaos throughout the snowfield. Normally, all demonic beasts would hide and avoid danger. This Northern Darkness Snow Bear not only bravely faced the danger but also happened to arrive at the place Ninth Brother was searching for. It's absolutely impossible that the two didn't recognize each other.

Based on the information available now, it's more likely that this monster knows where Ninth Brother is hiding.

Upon hearing Young Master Zhurong's speculation, Xiao Feng immediately said, "Young Master is truly exceptionally intelligent; I never imagined it could be so profound."

However, there is something I need to discuss with you, young master.

As the young master said, this Ninth Brother not only has deep roots in the Ruixue Kingdom, but also has a deep affection for it. He has helped the Ruixue Kingdom overcome many calamities, even the great calamity of national destruction.

He was even bestowed the title of "Equal King" by the Kingdom of Ruixue. Asking the Kingdom of Ruixue to help us capture Ninth Brother seems unlikely.

Furthermore, in the past, with the resources of my Peaceful Merchant Guild, we would not fear any continental kingdom. If soft tactics failed, our subordinates could resort to force. However, now, due to the capture of Ninth Brother, our powerful subordinates have been almost entirely wiped out, leaving only these few dozen Emperor-level experts around us.

Upon hearing Xiao Feng's words, Young Master Zhurong replied with disdain, "If this king is so ungrateful, then I'll send Elder Qi to eliminate him. Why don't you have your Peace Merchant Guild elect a king?"

It's not as complicated as you make it out to be!

My lord, no, no! On the way here, I received intelligence. The Kingdom of Ruixue already knows of our arrival and has begun its operation.

Currently, over a thousand Emperor-level powerhouses have gathered in the capital of Ruixue.

Moreover, the Kingdom of Ruixue is about to eradicate all of my Peace Merchant Guilds on the Ice and Snow Continent.

Once the Chamber of Commerce is eliminated, there will be no more news in the Kingdom of Ruixue urging us to make plans in advance.

At this point, Xiao Feng glanced at the dejected Old Qi and continued, "In this world, although Old Qi's martial prowess is unparalleled, even a kingdom with a thousand-year history may have some powerful formations capable of slaying gods and saints. If Old Qi goes there, he may not be able to escape unscathed."

If Elder Qi were to unleash his divine power and truly shatter this world, then everything would be lost.

When Xiao Feng said this, Old Qi suddenly spoke up and echoed Xiao Feng, saying, "To be honest, young master, it's not that I'm afraid to perish together with Ninth Brother."

Do you remember when we first arrived in this world, Elder Yue and I both discovered that there were two dangerous places in this world?

Once I arrived at this vast expanse of icy mountains and snowfields, I was able to confirm that one of the locations was deep within this endless sea.

Moreover, after my careful investigation, I have found that if that terrifying being in the depths of the Endless Sea is awakened, as long as you are still within the Azure God Realm, your life may be in danger.

That's why I dared not use my full power to kill Ninth Brother, for fear of awakening the terrifying being deep within the Endless Sea, thus ruining all of Young Master's plans. This is why both of my sneak attacks ended in failure.

After saying this, Old Qi lowered his head with a look of shame.

Oh?

Xiao Feng, you have been rooted in the Cangshen Realm for ten thousand years. Tell me, what kind of great terror exists in the depths of the endless sea within this snowfield?

My lord, I truly do not know this. A long time ago, I sent people to investigate. However, no matter how many people were sent or what their strength was, they all vanished without a trace, never to return.

Therefore, I never explored the secrets of the endless sea again.

"When we reach the other dangerous place Elder Qi mentioned, if I'm not mistaken, it should be the Sacred Mountain of Flames within the Flame Mountain Continent."

After saying this, Xiao Feng told Prince Zhurong about the legend of the Flaming Sacred Mountain and the results of his investigation in his earlier years.

After Xiao Feng and Elder Qi explained the current situation to Young Master Zhurong in detail, Young Master Zhurong asked, "So what do you suggest we do now? Are we just going to leave me here waiting endlessly for Ninth Brother to walk right into our trap?"

Alas! In my humble opinion, we can only follow your earlier deduction and prioritize finding the Northern Dark Snow Bear.

Meanwhile, my subordinates personally went to negotiate with King Ruixue to see if they could persuade him with a massive amount of resources.

After sighing, Prince Zhurong said weakly, "Let's do as Xiao Feng says for now."

Elder Qi, your divine sense is powerful. You should lead the remaining Emperor-level experts from the Chamber of Commerce to search for the Northern Nether Snow Bear.

After finishing his instructions with Elder Qi, Young Master Zhurong turned to Xiao Feng and said, "President Xiao, please personally go to the capital of Ruixue Kingdom and meet with the king. I hope he will know what's good for him, otherwise, when I return to the Cangshen Realm, it will be the time when his Ruixue Kingdom is destroyed!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Feng immediately bowed and paid his respects.

Just as Xiao Feng was about to leave, Zhu Rong's voice rang out from behind him, "Xiao Feng, your son Xiao Tian didn't come this time. I didn't say anything; I know what you're thinking."

"Enough with the small talk. I have six months left. Whether you and your son can accompany me to the Immortal Realm depends on your performance in these six months. Don't let all your previous efforts be in vain!"

Upon hearing this, Xiao Feng stopped, turned around, and bowed respectfully once more before disappearing with his two subordinates.

A month later, in the royal palace of Ruixue Kingdom, Xiao Feng stood in the center of the hall, while King Lai Xun sat on the high throne.

King Lai Xun looked down at Xiao Feng and said with a gloomy expression, "I didn't know that President Xiao had graced us with his presence. What brings you here?"

Since I ascended to the throne of the Snow Kingdom, I've only seen President Xiao's face once.

Looking at King Lai Xun, whose face was ashen, Xiao Feng smiled and said, "I really don't come here unless I have something important to discuss with King Lai Xun."
