Battle Through the Heavens: Exceptional Comprehension, Becomes Emperor at Ten Years Old

Chapter 116 Sweeping Through the Black Corner Region!

"A Dou Zong?" The owner of Qianyaofang was slightly taken aback, then fell silent.

Even a Dou Zong level expert still wields considerable influence in the Black Corner Region.

"Notify Elder Yan to come from Black Emperor City. You'll come with me to that pharmacy!" the shopkeeper said.

The white-robed elder nodded and said, "Alright, but what about our pills and medicinal herbs? Also, regarding our cooperation with the Eight Doors, now that the sect leader has been killed, do we still need to continue our cooperation?"

The shop owner gave the old man a flirtatious look and said irritably, "The man is dead, what's the point of cooperating? These people aren't specifically targeting our Thousand Medicine Shop, their target should be Black Seal City!"

The old man bowed slightly and said, "Understood. Sales of medicinal herbs and pills will be suspended. Our cooperation with the Eight Doors ends here!"

The shop owner then led the white-robed old man and a team of guards from Qianyaofang towards the pharmacy where Hai Bodong was located.

When they arrived at the pharmacy, the owner of Qianyaofang got off the carriage and saw an old man in a light blue brocade robe standing at the entrance.

"Are you the owner of this shop, sir?" the woman asked Hai Bodong with a charming smile.

Hai Bodong never expected that behind this huge Qianyaofang was this woman with a seductive look.

"I'm just a guard. Someone's waiting for you up there. Let's go!" Hai Bodong said calmly.

Upon hearing Hai Bodong's words, the woman's eyes narrowed. If a peak Douhuang expert was acting as a bodyguard, how strong must the person behind him be?

The woman wasn't tactless; she bowed to Hai Bodong and said, "Thank you for leading the way, sir!"

Hai Bodong then led the woman into the shop. The guards behind him wanted to follow, but the woman stopped them.

If Hai Bodong were to lay a hand on her here, the guards she brought would be utterly powerless to resist!

Hai Bodong observed the woman's every move. As expected of someone who had made a name for himself in the Black Corner Region, her courage and insight were beyond the reach of ordinary people!

Soon, Hai Bodong led the woman to the second floor and pushed open a door.

"Go in!" Hai Bodong said calmly.

The woman glanced into the room and saw a figure sitting at the table with his back to her, so she couldn't see him clearly.

Without further hesitation, the woman stepped into the room, and Hai Bodong closed the door.

"Are you from Zhongzhou?" the woman asked from behind Gahe.

Gah chuckled and said, "Sit down and let's talk, don't be shy!"

The woman was slightly taken aback when she heard Jiahe's voice. Such a young voice, could it be the young master of some hidden sect or family?

Now that she was here, the woman had naturally calmed down and slowly sat down opposite Gahe.

When she saw Gahe, her red lips parted slightly, and she looked at Gahe with some surprise.

"So young, and so handsome!" The woman's heart stirred slightly.

Jiahe poured her a cup of tea, then asked, "Has the owner of Qianyaofang come here today to demand an explanation for what happened before?"

The woman straightened her clothes slightly, then said with a seductive look in her eyes, "My name is Yao Xin. I've come today not to demand an explanation, but to discuss our cooperation!"

"Oh? How does Master Yao want to cooperate?" Jiahe asked, looking at Yao Xin.

Yao Xin said, "Qianyaofang has some influence in the Black Corner Region, and it has its own channels for pills and medicinal herbs. Wouldn't it be great if we could make money together in the future?"

Jiahe chuckled and said, "Making a fortune together is nice, but I prefer to enjoy it all alone. Tell me, if I halved the prices of all the medicinal herbs and pills in the Black Corner Region, wouldn't Thousand Medicine Shop suffer heavy losses?"

Yao Xin's expression immediately changed. "Why must you resort to such a desperate measure? The sects of Qianyaofang all have vested interests. If you infringe upon their interests, you won't be able to gain a foothold in the Black Corner Region!"

Jiahe, however, said calmly, "Master Yao, there's no need to rush to give me an answer. I'll give you a choice: cooperate with us and help me establish sales channels for medicinal herbs and pills throughout the Black Corner Region. In return, I can consider giving you 30% of the profits!"

Yao Xin immediately stood up and said, "That's impossible!"

"Look, you're in such a rush!" Jiahe raised his hand, then continued, "It's okay if we can't reach an agreement, I can take my time, but in the future, Qianyaofang won't have any opportunities to make money!"

"As for those sects and forces in the Black Corner Region you mentioned, every single one of them, if they dare to come, we'll annihilate them!"

Jiahe's words were blunt, but his face was full of confidence, which made Yao Xin hesitate for a moment!

"Let me think about it!" Yao Xin said after a long pause.

Just then, Ya Fei's voice came from outside the door: "May I come in?"

Gah said softly, "Come in!"

The door was then pushed open, and a charming and tall figure slowly walked in. When Ya Fei appeared in front of Yao Xin, Yao Xin was slightly stunned.

Yao Xin hadn't expected the woman beside this young master to be so beautiful. She had alluring eyes and exuded the charm of a mature and sophisticated woman. Even Yao Xin felt somewhat inferior to her!

Ya Fei glanced at Yao Xin with her watery eyes, then said to Jia He, "Everything is ready. News of the auction has spread throughout the Black Corner Region, and some people have already arrived in Black Seal City!"

"Alright, the auction will proceed as scheduled. We'll erase all traces of the Eight Gates and let the people of the Black Corner Region see our auction!" Jiahe said to Yafei.

Ya Fei nodded slightly, then looked at Yao Xin, the owner of Qianyaofang, and suddenly said, "This must be the owner of Qianyaofang. I didn't expect her to be such a beauty!"

Yao Xin was somewhat unsure about the woman in front of her, but she was definitely the woman beside this young master, so she smiled and said, "You flatter me, you are the truly beautiful one!"

Ya Fei smiled faintly and said, "I suppose Qianyaofang will also be joining the Imperial Prison in the future, which will give us many opportunities to exchange ideas!"

Gah said, "Alright, they haven't agreed yet, so what opportunity for communication is there!"

Then Jiahe looked at Yao Xin and said, "Princess Yao, please go back and think about it. I hope that when I see you next time, you can give me an answer."

Master Yao respectfully replied, "Alright!"

Immediately, Yao Fangzhu turned and left. Ya Fei then sat down next to Jia He and asked with some confusion, "Why cooperate with the people from Qianyaofang?"

"It's not cooperation, it's joining in. Didn't you say that yourself?" Gahe laughed.

"I don't understand joining at all. Anyway, there's no rush. Can't we take things one step at a time in Black Corner Region?" Ya Fei said.

Gah sighed and said, "Actually, I'm quite anxious, but you don't understand now."

"You'll understand when you get there!"

Ya Fei was clever and did not press the matter further.

After Yao Fangzhu left, Jiahe summoned Youhai, Haibodong, Medusa, and Leiyun.

Inside the room, Gahe looked at the four people and said, "Black Seal City will be our base and transit point from now on. I will arrange for the capital to send a flying caravan to transport medicinal herbs and pills for us."

"Here is a list I compiled, which includes all the forces in the entire Black Corner Region. The Eight Doors have been eliminated, and the Imperial Prison is now considered part of the Black Corner Region. The list also includes the Earth Flame Sect, the Blood Sect, the Medicine Emperor Sect, the Demon Flame Valley, the Rakshasa Sect, the Black Emperor Sect, the Heavenly Yin Sect, and the Mad Lion Gang."

"Most of these forces have been entrenched in the Black Corner Region for many years. Anyone who threatens our interests will be eliminated!"

Upon hearing Gahe's words, Medusa licked her rosy lips slightly, a hint of coldness flashing in her eyes. Finally, it was time for her to do what she was best at.

Hai Bodong said, somewhat stunned, "But what if it doesn't affect our interests?"

Gah chuckled, "Then let them touch our interests. Of course, if anyone doesn't want to be our enemy, then they can join the Imperial Prison!"

"Since there are no Dou Zong level experts in the sect, you can leave them to Hai Bodong. Medusa will be in my group, Youhai and Leiyun will be in another group, and I can handle Demon Flame Valley!"

"The operation will officially begin after this auction concludes!" Gahe said.

Everyone nodded slightly.

As news of the destruction of the Eight Gates spread, the Imperial Prison's forces moved into Black Seal City and became the replacement sect.

The Imperial Prison has also officially come into the sights of many powerful figures in the Black Corner Region.

Inside the main hall of the Black Emperor Sect in Black Emperor City.

Upon hearing the news about the Imperial Prison, Mo Tianxing's hand trembled as he asked, "The people from the Imperial Prison have come to the Black Corner Region?"

A young man standing to the side frowned and said, "Father, what kind of power is this Imperial Prison? Why do you seem so afraid of it?"

Mo Tianxing glared at his son and snapped, "Shut up! What do you know?"

"The one who defeated the Lord of the Heavenly Serpent Palace in the sect competition I participated in was this Lord of the Imperial Prison. If he comes to the Black Corner Region, the Black Corner Region will be in big trouble!" Mo Tianxing still felt lingering fear when he thought of the scene that day!

Mo Ya looked at his father and said, "Is it that scary? Even if they are strong, they can't just attack us directly, can they? The Black Corner Region is so big, aren't they afraid that all the forces will unite?"

"If he really declares war on all the forces in the Black Corner Region, that would be good. If we defeat them one by one, I'm afraid only the people of Demon Flame Valley can withstand us!" Mo Tianxing sighed.

Mo Ya then said, "Oh, right, there's one more thing. Yao Xin, the owner of Qianyaofang, went to Black Seal City. We received news from the Imperial Prison that there's a Breakthrough Pill up for auction!"

"Breakthrough Pill?" Mo Tianxing was slightly taken aback.

Mo Ya nodded and said, "That's right, there might be a sixth-grade alchemist in that Imperial Prison!"

"Take Elder Qi with you to auction off that broken sect pill. Remember, once you get there, keep a low profile!" Mo Tianxing said to Mo Ya.

Mo Ya said, "I understand, Father!"

……

Black Seal City saw a surge in foot traffic due to the auction.

Most people had no idea about the disappearance of the Eight Doors.

In their view, neither the Eight Doors nor the Imperial Prison had much to do with them, and they might even benefit from it!

The Eight Gates have established a stronghold in Black Seal City, monopolizing enormous profits, but they have also protected their safety.

Now that the Eight Doors have been destroyed, it means that the forces that have replaced them are stronger, which makes them safer.

On this day, the Black Seal City Grand Auction House reopened.

This time, however, the owners were different, and Ya Fei had already made ample preparations. Previously, the Eight Doors took a 20% cut at the auction.

Ya Fei changed the auction commission to 10% for VIPs and 8% for other customers, which attracted many people to bring their collections to the auction house!

The auction began quickly, and many forces from the Black Corner Region entered the venue. This time, Ya Fei was personally bidding, and her beautiful figure immediately caught the eye of many people.

Undoubtedly, Ya Fei is at her most charming at the auction house; with every smile and gesture, she can sell her collection.

Moreover, Gahe also discovered that Yafei was most confident when she stood in the center of the auction hall, and he liked Yafei's radiant appearance.

Sitting in the VIP section, Mo Ya looked at the stunningly beautiful Consort Ya on the stage with eyes full of lust.

"What a beautiful woman! I must have her!" Mo Ya's face was filled with barely suppressed greed.

At this moment, Mo Ya had long forgotten his father's warning to him before he came.

Sitting next to Mo Ya was a red-faced old man, none other than Qi Lao, the chief alchemist of the Black Emperor Sect, a peak fifth-grade alchemist, just one step away from stepping into the sixth grade!

In the Northwest Continent, alchemists are a scarce resource. Those above the fifth rank are already quite precious, and there are only a handful of sixth-rank alchemists in the entire Black Corner Region.

The most famous alchemist in the Black Corner Region is Han Feng, the founder of the Medicine Emperor Sect. The power behind him is mysterious. After arriving in the Black Corner Region many years ago, he rose to prominence and occupied a city, which he named Maple City.

At the same time, this guy's peak Douhuang strength, coupled with his peak sixth-grade alchemy skills, makes him very popular in the Black Corner Region.

Moreover, Han Feng is not very old and is in his prime. Many forces in the Black Corner Region speculate that he must have a very powerful teacher behind him.

Old Master Qi's attention was focused on the auction items on the stage, and he didn't notice that his young master's attention was a little off.

"The Imperial Extreme Pill, it really is the Imperial Extreme Pill, and its quality is simply perfect. It's hard to imagine that anyone could refine the Imperial Extreme Pill to such a degree!" Old Qi exclaimed.

Mo Ya finally came to his senses and looked at Elder Qi, asking, "Elder Qi, is this Imperial Extreme Pill very good?"

"It's more than just good! It's something that a sixth-grade alchemist couldn't possibly refine. I think even the Medicine King himself probably couldn't refine it!" Old Qi said excitedly.

Mo Ya frowned slightly and said, "Doesn't that mean that this Imperial Supreme Pill was made by a seventh-grade alchemist?"

"Seventh rank? Impossible!" Old Qi shook his head and said.

Then Elder Qi explained, "There's no way there could be a seventh-grade alchemist in the entire Black Corner Region—no, I should say there wouldn't be one in the Northwest Continent. Even if there were, they'd go to the Central Continent, not stay here."

Mo Ya nodded and said, "Then I'm relieved!"

As the atmosphere in the auction gradually reached its climax, the last item, the Breakthrough Pill, was soon brought out.

Mo Ya was also slightly excited; it was finally his turn to make a move.

After giving a brief introduction to the Breakthrough Pills, Ya Fei smiled and looked at the entire audience: "These two Breakthrough Pills are of extremely high quality. If there are any peak Dou Huang experts, they can make their move now. The opportunity to become a Dou Zong is right before their eyes!"

"Two Breakthrough Pills, starting bid: 1.2 million gold coins!"
