A Will Eternal – Chapter 731

Chapter 731: Stuck In The Middle

Zhou Hong looked at Xu Peng. Given what he knew about Xu Peng's personality, he knew that it was impossible to change his mind.

Unfortunately, Gongsun Yi rejected her invitation with a message with sarcastic words explaining that she did not need to use plots and schemes to regain the face she had lost, that he would do so with his own battle prowess.

Although Zhou Hong was not too happy about it, afterwards, he had no other choice but to meet Xu Peng. After all, he had certain doubts about the Junior Champion King, and was unwilling to get involved with him.

"Don't worry, Brother Xu, this Bai Hao has reached a dead end. I know we can't kill him, so my plan is to humiliate him and make sure he won't stay in Arch-Emperor City. We just need to escort him back to Giant Ghost City. ” That's what Zhou Hong wanted. Having this Bai Hao trapped in Giant Ghost City, far from sight and mind, was far different from making it right in Arch-Emperor City, making a huge splash. Moreover, the former would give him a chance to achieve even greater success in the end.

Right now, the political climate in Arch-Emperor City was extremely unstable, so if Bai Hao managed to consolidate his strength, it could make it extremely difficult to deal with later.

"Oh?" Xu Peng said with a smile. "I want to hear the details." With that, he looked on expectantly.

"Alright," Zhou Hong replied, "I haven't thought of all the specifics, but we can't let him do anything he wants around here. The store is getting more popular, isn't it? My plan was to summon one of the grandmaster necromancers from Nine Words City and set up a shop right next to Bai Hao's shop.

"When it came to fighting prowess and battle, Bai Hao was obviously incredible. But I refuse to believe that he is just as good at doing business. If we cut off his source of income, he'll be desperate enough to start making mistakes, and then we'll make a profit. ”

The truth was that Zhou Hong had already devised a complicated plan, but did not want to reveal that fact to Xu Peng. He was actually still dissatisfied that he could not just attack Bai Hao and face him head-on. Unfortunately, he couldn't defeat her in a fight, and therefore had to resort to a scheme for revenge.

Xu Peng listened attentively, and in the end, smiled mysteriously. He was not a fool, and knew that Zhou Hong must have had other plans that he did not reveal. However, Xu Peng still wanted to try to take advantage of this situation to his own advantage, and in any case, there was no harm in opening a shop. In fact, it might even help the situation. Finally, Xu Peng nodded.

“That sounds like a good idea, Brother Zhou. Actually, how about I invite a grandmaster necromancer from Spirit Advent City? We could both open a shop, in Borough 89! ”

The two of them laughed out loud, and then began to organize.

Half a month later, Bai Xiaochun was still in the middle of researching the formula for the seventeen-colored flame. Bai Hao finished with the refinement of the technique, but still needed to finish some matters.

Business continues to improve, and there is never again a line coming out the door. It was also for half a month that the two stores on both sides of Bai Xiaochun changed ownership.

After being closed briefly for renovation, both were reopened, bigger and more luxurious than ever. In terms of the particular business involved, they sell soul medicine and offer spirit enhancement services!

Most surprising of all are the names attached to the signs above the store.

One was Sima Tao, the other was Sun Yifan!

When both names were revealed, it caused a huge uproar in Borough 89. It only took a short time before people spoke, not only about Bai Xiaochun's shop, but about these two newly opened shops!

"Sima Tao's …. He was a grand elder of the Sima Clan in Spirit Advent City! And he is also a heavenly necromancer. He was proficient in spirit enhancement, and was widely accepted as the number one spirit enhancer in Spirit Advent City! ”

“He is very famous! Everyone said that he was one of the few necromancers who might actually break through worldly rankings! ”

“You know what I heard? Supposedly, he was so grateful to the Nine Words King that he agreed to become his high adviser. In terms of his skill in necromancy, it was on par with Sima Tao! ”

The entire city was shaken by these two names, and regardless of the incident that happened with Chen Xiong, many people started to pay closer attention to see what would happen. After all, Borough 89 was not in the central district of Arch-Emperor City; it was located more to the suburbs. For two grandmasters to suddenly set up shop in such a place was very telling.

"They're moving in Bai Hao …."

"One of the Nine Word Cities and one of the Advent Spirit City …. They challenged him without making any open movements. I smell a piece of land. ”

Bai Xiaochun was enraged by this new development, which immediately made it bad. Despite the fact that he could do fifteenfold spirit enhancement, in terms of his cultivation base and reputation as a spirit enhancer, he could only be considered someone from the Junior generation for these two people.

Almost immediately, businesses began to shift to stores operated by two grandmasters. The soul medicine sold there was of high quality, and each piece was marked with an official stamp guaranteeing its quality, which also made the medicine a collectible item. As far as Spirit enhancement went, the two necromancers had upgraded several magic items to a fifteenfold increase point. In fact, Sun Yifan's masterpiece was a magical tool that he had upgraded sixteen times to Nine Words King!

Bai Xiaochun was stuck right between the other two shops, and it only took three days for his business to take a critical hit.

Bai Xiaochun was not happy at all. While walking out to check on the other two stores, he discovered that they were indeed bigger than his. When you add how their work is secured with a seal, it really makes its own store seem too simple.

“What does this mean !? Can't beat me in a fight so now they'll try to get me out of business !? ” The other two stores are really crowded, and although the store is not completely empty, it is not like before. "Nine Words City .. It must be Zhou Hong. The Spirit Advent City. Hm. I did not take life force from Xu Shan. Why did he take it out for me? "

Quite a number of people noticed that Bai Xiaochun had walked into the street to look at the other shops. Even Sima Tao and Sun Yifan were aware of it, but seemed to view it as a business competition, and paid little attention to it.

As far as they were concerned, Bai Xiaochun probably had impressive battle prowess, and even had a Nascent Soul cultivation base, but in terms of spirit enhancement and necromancy, he could not compare to them. They have spent most of their lives immersed in necromancy, and have a wealth of experience. There was no way some roaring brats could come close to their abilities.

After gauging the situation, Bai Xiaochun walked furiously back to his shop. Although he initially did not care much about his spirit refinement shop, given that his future cultivation was bound to a multi-colored flame, and he needed to do a lot of research, he did not care about it, that meant he had a greater need for revenge. In fact, the amount involved is even difficult to process mentally.

He could not return to Giant Ghost City, and there was no way to destroy any clan. Madam Red-Dust will not help at all. That meant that the only other possible way to gain souls was to defeat people in fights, which was too dangerous as far as Bai Xiaochun was concerned.

Without a soul, he could not conjure a flame, and without a multi-colored flame, he could not increase his cultivation base. Without a higher cultivation base, he would never be able to break out of the Wildlands. That, coupled with all the pressure from the Red-Dust Mistress, made her feel extremely anxious.

He was alone, with no clan to support him, and without the salary of the Giant Ghost King. If he wanted to conjure fire and increase his cultivation base, then he would have to rely on a vengeful soul.

His hope had come to rest in his shop, and he originally thought it would be able to support him to the point where he could increase his cultivation base and leave the Wildlands.

But now that two new shops had opened, Bai Xiaochun's plans were completely ruined. Moreover, if things continued to go their way, the others chosen in the city would definitely be involved. If everything got to the point where he had no business at all, then he would be in very serious trouble, and might even be killed.

"No, I have to think of a way!" Back at his shop, he sat there thinking, a frown on his face as all sorts of ideas flowed in his head. However, no matter what ideas came up, they had flaws that he could not handle, given how weak he was overall.

From the side, Bai Hao looked at his Master, and then at the people outside mostly went to the other two shops. After a while, he said, "Master, I have two plans that can resolve the situation!"
