The Weird Way of Immortality: My Taoism Progress in One Day a Year

Chapter 207 Big Demon
"Liu Yucheng, as the head of the Haiyun City branch of the Sifang Chamber of Commerce, you actually dared to let go of the heir of the Great Xia royal family for your own personal gain."

Haiyun City.

A middle-aged man in a brown robe pointed his finger at Liu Yucheng with an angry look and shouted.

Liu Yucheng's expression did not change at all when facing the man's words: "Haha, Elder Qiu's words are a bit unreasonable."

"When did I let the heir of the Great Xia Dynasty go? You wrongly accused me, a branch leader, without any evidence. Do you think your words have any effect?"

The person in front of Liu Yucheng was Qiu Jun, the elder of the Sifang Chamber of Commerce.

But he is not in the same faction.

After the news that the heir to the throne of Great Xia was stranded in the Southern Region spread, Qiu Jun had been looking for the heir to the throne everywhere.

But Qiu Jun's purpose was different from his. It was not to establish a relationship with the Daxia royal family.

Instead, he wanted to give it to the royal family of Tian Yao Kingdom, to establish good relations with Tian Yao Kingdom, and thus take on the position of leader of the branch within Tian Yao Kingdom.

Qiu Jun didn't know where he got the news from, but he knew that Li Yan and the other man had come to his Haiyun City branch, so he came to him to question him.

Of course he wouldn't admit it at this moment.

As long as Li Yan and Xia Yao return to Da Xia safely, even if the people in the headquarters know that he let the heir to Da Xia go without permission,

In order to maintain the relationship with Daxia, he would only use me more and not punish him.

Only when Li Yan and the other man were captured by Qiu Jun and taken to the Tianyao Kingdom.

He might be punished by our headquarters.

Hearing this, Qiu Jun sneered and said, "Do you really think I don't have any evidence?"

"The cargo ship bound for Daxia was supposed to set sail ten days later, but you asked them to set sail half a month earlier. Did you really think you could hide it from everyone?"

Liu Yucheng said slowly: "What kind of evidence is this? As the leader of the Four Chambers of Commerce in Haiyun City, I am the one who decides when the cargo ship should depart."

"Elder Qiu, please don't slander good people at will."

"And even if I really did it, so what? If I can make friends with the Great Xia royal family, wouldn't that be a good thing for our Four Directions Chamber of Commerce?"

"Could it be that Elder Qiu wants my Sifang Chamber of Commerce to become an enemy of the Great Xia Royal Family?"

Qiu Jun's face was cold: "Humph, do you think those two Daxia heirs can really return to Daxia?"

"To tell you the truth, I have already told a fifth-rank great demon from the Heavenly Demon Nation in Haiyun City about the two heirs of the Great Xia Dynasty boarding the cargo ship."

"According to current calculations, the great demon should have already caught up with the cargo ship. We just need to capture the two heirs of the throne."

"When that time comes, guess whether you can still keep your position as the leader of the Haiyun City branch!"

After saying these words, Qiu Jun laughed out loud and left the Chamber of Commerce.

Liu Yucheng's expression changed.

If that big monster really captured Li Yan and the other two and brought them back.

If he lets Li Yan and the other two go without informing the headquarters of the decision, it will bring him trouble.

Even if he has supporters in the headquarters, he may not be able to keep his position.

But he did not panic. Things were not settled yet and anything could happen.

The sea route is wide, and he doesn't believe that the fifth-grade monster can accurately find the cargo ship.

Unless there is an insider on board...

!!!

Liu Yucheng became alert instantly.

Why did Qiu Jun know that he asked Li Yan and the other man to go to Daxia by sea on a cargo ship?

Now it seems that perhaps Qiu Jun really arranged people on that cargo ship who can point out the direction for that fifth-grade monster.

That's why he was so sure that the fifth-grade demon would be able to capture Li Yan and the other person.

If this is true, Li Yan and the other person would probably be caught!

His face was gloomy, and he quickly used magic to communicate with the people in his headquarters behind him to see if there was any way to remedy the situation.

……

The cargo ship continued to move towards Daxia until one night, when a strong demonic aura approached the cargo ship from afar. Li Yan was the first to sense the demonic aura coming. He suddenly opened his eyes and stood up from his cross-legged meditation.

Then he opened the door and walked onto the deck, looking at the red light in the distant sky that was rapidly approaching the cargo ship, and frowned slightly.

There is nothing obstructing the sea and the view is extremely wide.

Logically speaking, the sixth-grade sorcerer on duty on the cargo ship should have noticed the abnormality earlier than him.

However, this sixth-grade sorcerer seemed not to notice anything and did not issue any warning. He even deliberately slowed down the speed of the cargo ship.

"We were still caught up by someone."

Li Yan understood.

The sixth-rank sorcerer on duty on the ship now is obviously not Liu Yucheng's man.

Because if Liu Yucheng really wanted to take action against him, there would be no need to go through so much trouble. He could just do it directly in Haiyun City. There would be no need to wait until now.

The cargo ship came to a complete stop at sea.

The other people on the boat soon realized something was wrong and rushed out of the cabin in panic.

Then they all found the trace of the big monster.

"Huang Ling, why do you have to stop? Move the boat quickly! Don't let the monster behind you catch up with you!"

Several people shouted to the sixth-grade sorcerer on duty in the wheelhouse.

At the same time, they also wanted to enter the steering room and work together to stimulate the full speed of the cargo ship.

Only in this way can we escape the pursuit of the big monster behind.

But they were shocked to find that there was a formation set up in the steering room.

They were actually stopped outside in a short period of time.

It was impossible to enter the wheelhouse and steer the cargo ship.

"Huang Ling, what are you doing!"

Several people shouted anxiously outside the wheelhouse.

They were horrified in their hearts. The demonic aura of the monster chasing them from behind was at least that of a fifth-grade demon.

Monsters of this level were simply not something that a few sixth-grade warlocks like them could resist.

The further you advance in realm, the greater the gap between each level.

A fifth-grade monster, this rank is already a great monster.

It is simply not something that ordinary people can resist.

Not to mention the few sixth-grade warlocks themselves, even if there were seven or eight more sixth-grade warlocks, they would not be able to deal with a fifth-grade monster.

Once caught up, not to mention the cargo ship, even their own lives would be in danger.

"Don't worry, this monster is not here to attack us. It is here only for the two heirs on the ship. As long as we hand over the two heirs, there will be no danger."

Huang Ling, the sixth-rank sorcerer in the helm room, had a smug look on his face.

He released the news and informed Qiu Jun's insider.

Although Liu Yucheng did not tell them the true identities of Li Yan and Xia Yao.

But these sixth-grade sorcerers on the ship can cultivate to such a level, so how could they be stupid?

They guessed the true identities of Li Yan and the other person early on.

However, among them, only Huang Ling did not choose to stand with Liu Yucheng, but told the news to Qiu Jun, the elder of the Sifang Chamber of Commerce who was hostile to Liu Yucheng.

He wanted to establish a relationship with Qiu Jun and gain benefits from it.

Qiu Jun also promised him many benefits as he wished, and asked him to lead the way for the monsters from the Tianyao Kingdom.

When this trip is over, he will leave Haiyun City and go under Qiu Jun's command.

Not only will you be rewarded, but your power and status will also be greatly enhanced.
