Swallowing the Stars: Ten Thousand Times Return for Taking on Disciples

Chapter 78 Negotiations break down
"You came to my planet Yingpo to cause trouble, destroyed half of my street, and now you're saying I'm meddling?"

Looking at the ruins all around, Arthur's face turned ashen.

however.

Instead, he was met with a flash of light.

"boom!!"

Arthur had just raised his greatsword when he collided with the blade's light. His body was sent flying backward, crashing straight into a hundred-meter-tall building like a cannonball.

He was shocked.

"Such a fast cut."

"What a powerful strike!"

Faced with this strike, he could barely hold his greatsword steady. If it weren't for his keen sense of danger honed over years of adventure, which allowed him to raise his sword in advance, his body would have been cleaved in two by that single blow.

This guy……

Arthur turned and pulled away, not daring to go any further...

now.

What Treasure Pavilion?

What is Fluorescent Amber Star?

Compared to my own life, nothing else matters.

Fortunately, the other party did not make another move. After glancing at him from afar, a white diamond-shaped spaceship appeared out of thin air. The figure flew into it and disappeared into the sky above the planet Yingpu in a moment.

That's a Class E spaceship from the Machine Race. One shot is all it takes to wipe the planet Yingpo off the map.

Arthur was covered in sweat.

He realized he had been too reckless. If that guy had fired at the planet, probably almost no one on the entire planet, except for himself, would have survived.

"Who on earth is this person?!"

"And who did this Treasure Pavilion offend? What happened during my decades of seclusion?"

Arthur immediately instructed the intelligent life form to search for relevant information.

After a while.

He let out a sigh of relief.

"It seems their target is only the Treasure Pavilion, and has nothing to do with my Yingpo Star!"

"Who is this guy? He's so ruthless, not even afraid of the immortals behind the Treasure Pavilion. He's robbed the Treasure Pavilion's goods for the third time in a row and even killed one of the Treasure Pavilion's realm lords..."

Although the information given in the virtual universe was unconfirmed and seemed like mere speculation, Arthur felt that seeing it with his own eyes now was definitely true.

Treasure Pavilion has really messed with a powerful figure.

The key issue is that this uncle is very vengeful, and he himself was implicated in the situation.

suddenly.

Arthur realized something.

"Lux... help me buy Treasure Pavilion stock, no, I mean help me short Treasure Pavilion stock. How much? All in, all in!!!"

The clever man quickly came up with a way to make up for his losses... all he needed to do was make a profit from the virtual stock market, and the loss would be nothing.

Yingpo Star is one of the most prosperous commercial planets in the Zichen Universe Kingdom. What happened here could not possibly be kept secret... Arthur did not restrict the spread of this matter. Regarding the damage to the streets, he responded that it was a private feud between the mysterious powerhouse and the Treasure Pavilion, and that other shops were only affected.

Of course, the business owners should bear the losses themselves. It's their own fault for not choosing a good location and insisting on choosing a place next to the Treasure Pavilion!
……

at the same time.

Above Qianwu City, in a high-end office building in a suspended city.

Khunsaruo and the Lord of the Demon Realm are negotiating with several people dressed in bank suits.

“Mr. Stephen, you must have seen the data. Our Treasure Pavilion has a huge advantage. In just 30,000 years, we have grown from 1000 Hunyuan to 20000 Hunyuan, a twenty-fold increase... This is even with limited funds and a slow expansion speed. If we can get help from the Virtual Universe Company, I believe that in at most 10,000 years, we can increase at least tenfold!”

Kunsala's tone was somewhat agitated. Although he was an immortal god and the opponents were only a few realm lords, and even one of them was just a domain lord, he still dared not be presumptuous, because these people were all from the Virtual Universe Company, stationed in the Qianwu Universe Kingdom's Department of Commerce.

If he wants to secure investment, or even affiliate Treasure Pavilion to the business department of Virtual Universe Company, he needs the approval of these people.

“Mr. Khun Sa Luo, it is undeniable that Treasure Pavilion is developing very well and is a company with great potential. However, recently... your company seems to have encountered a small problem! If this problem is not resolved, it will be a very risky thing for investors.”

A rather gentlemanly leader spoke up.

"Mr. Stephen, I don't know what rumors you've heard. Everything is fine at Treasure Pavilion recently. The stock market is calm. What trouble could there be?"

"Really? I heard that your company's cargo ships have been hijacked twice. Could this be a deliberate act of retaliation?"

"Rumors, absolutely rumors! Someone must know I plan to collaborate with Mr. Stephen and deliberately spread these rumors to sow discord between us. You know, that's how business competition works..."

Mr. Stephen smiled faintly: "Whether it's a rumor or not, I believe that Mr. Khun Saro, this immortal deity, can easily resolve this. However, according to our assessment, we can only invest twice the offer amount and then ask for 51% of the shares of Treasure Pavilion."

Khun Saro's expression was not good: "Sir, two times is far too low. Treasure Pavilion has huge potential, five times is the minimum... Your investment department will definitely make a fortune if you acquire 51% of our Treasure Pavilion's shares!!"

“Mr. Khun Sa Lo, you know that even without risk warnings, negotiating a 5x investment is very difficult... It's simply impossible now…”

"Four times, four times is acceptable, that's the bottom line. You know that besides making money, my goal is also to send my brother into the apocalyptic secret realm... I'll make him the manager of the new company."

"Four times..."

Stephen and his colleagues discussed the matter. Their original target was actually between three and four times the original value, but the problem with Treasure Pavilion led to a lower evaluation.

suddenly.

One of the negotiation team members quietly walked up to Stephen and said something. Stephen entered the virtual universe, verified the information, and then frowned slightly as he looked at Khun Saro and said...

“Mr. Khun Sa Lo, it seems our negotiations will have to be put on hold for now.”

"Mr. Stephen, why? We were having a very pleasant conversation just now!" Khun Saro asked, puzzled.

"You'll know if you just look at the news about the virtual universe. Hmm, it's already on the front page of the Qianwu Universe Kingdom."

After saying that, Stephen and his team got up and left.

Kunsala and the Lord of the Demon Realm immediately entered the virtual universe to check the news, and then, they were both stunned!

"The Treasure Pavilion on the planet Fluorescent Amber has been looted, and the entire street has been destroyed..."

Lord Arthur of the Star of Glowing Amber stated that this was a private feud between the space pirates and the Treasure Pavilion, and did not involve anything else, nor would it affect the business environment of the Star of Glowing Amber.

Text, images, and even videos are circulating everywhere online...

"Damn!!!"

Khun Salo raised his hand and smashed an expensive negotiating table to pieces.

"No matter who you are, I will make sure you suffer a terrible death!!"
