Chapter 284: Chapter 284 The True Background of Wanxing Commerce Association

"It’s Sister Yu!"

Lin Chen’s lips curled into a smile, the person outside was none other than Yu Weilian, with whom he had made acquaintance back in Desolate Sky City.

After two years of no sight, Yu Weilian hadn’t changed much, except she seemed even more feminine now.

"Come on, Lin Chen, now that you’re in Divine Sun City, let me take you around to see the sights and get a feel for the place," Yu Weilian said with an alluring stance, not a bit shy as she smiled at Lin Chen, who was staring straight at her.

Recalling what Yang Yuemin had said, Lin Chen stepped forward, ready to accompany the beauty.

However, Lin Chen was merely interested in Yu Weilian’s identity, knowing that this was the residence for the Soaring Dragon Conference held by the Great Flame Dynasty’s Royal Family, and not just anyone could get here.

Furthermore, Yu Weilian wasn’t here to participate in the conference’s competition, which made it clear her identity was far from ordinary.

"I’ve heard about the impressive display you put on at the conference, Lin Chen, truly powerful and commanding. When I got the news, I even thought it might be someone with the same name."

"It’s been two years, and Lin Chen has grown to such a level, you’ll have to take care of me in the future," Yu Weilian said with laughter as they walked.

Lin Chen shook his head at these words. The cultivation Yu Weilian was showing now was at the First Layer of the Heaven-reaching Realm, but Lin Chen’s Divine Soul had reached the level of the Reverting Void Realm. With a slight probe of his Divine Soul, he knew that Yu Weilian was hiding her true cultivation level; it certainly wasn’t as simple as the First Layer of the Heaven-reaching Realm.

Yu Weilian wasn’t much older than Lin Chen, yet she possessed such formidable cultivation, indicating an increasingly complicated identity.

"Sister Yu is joking, with your cultivation, where would you need my care?" Lin Chen responded with a smile. With that remark, Yu Weilian was slightly surprised, realizing that Lin Chen had seen through her ruse of concealing her cultivation level.

She hadn’t expected Lin Chen to be able to discern that she was concealing her true strength.

Cultivation level and combat power are two different things; Lin Chen had formidable combat power, but it didn’t necessarily mean he had the discernment of a stronger cultivator.

But now it seemed, he certainly did.

"Lin Chen, you’re making me more and more curious. I really want to know what other secrets you’re hiding," said Yu Weilian, moving closer to Lin Chen, her fragrance causing his heartbeat to speed up.

"Then Sister Yu had better be careful, being too interested in a member of the opposite sex can often lead to losing oneself," Lin Chen replied, his face blushing and heart racing, but he mustered up the courage to speak boldly in front of Yu Weilian.

Upon hearing this, Yu Weilian covered her mouth and let out a giggling laughter, finding Lin Chen’s manner absolutely adorable.

The two of them left the royal residence arranged by the Great Flame Dynasty’s Royal Family, laughing and chatting as they headed onto the streets of Divine Sun City.

After their departure, Xu Lianyu slowly emerged from behind a wall of the royal residence, her eyes brimming with annoyance and her hands clenched into fists. Her furrowed brows indicated her discontent.

Since Lin Chen had come to the Jade Cauldron Sect, joined the Jade Bird Peak, and become her junior brother, their relationship had gradually changed.

In her heart, Lin Chen’s position had subtly become very special.

At this moment, seeing Lin Chen getting close with another woman, Xu Lianyu felt extremely troubled in her heart. Before, she had only seen Lin Chen being intimate with Zhao Yijing, which was tolerable since that was her senior sister, with whom she could share. But now, it was an outsider, and she was unhappy and even less willing.

At the same time, through the window, Yang Yuemin shook her head slightly, secretly thinking that her young disciple was likely going to leave a trail of emotional debts everywhere.

After wandering around the city with Yu Weilian, Lin Chen arrived in front of a building that was splendidly decorated with gold and jade, its grandeur not the least bit inferior to that of the Great Flame Dynasty’s Royal Family.

Seeing the "Wanxing Commerce Association" sign, Lin Chen felt a surge of surprise; he had known since his time in Desolate Sky City that the Wanxing Commerce Association was no simple matter, but he had not expected their influence to be so immense.

The capability to build a structure that rivaled the Great Flame Dynasty’s Royal Family spoke volumes of the Wanxing Commerce Association’s power.

Yu Weilian led Lin Chen into the Wanxing Commerce Association, where the guards immediately bowed respectfully to her and nodded politely to Lin Chen.

Lin Chen was surprised, for the guards of the Wanxing Commerce Association turned out to be at the Eighth Layer of Melding Earth Realm.

Goodness, within the powers of the Great Flame Dynasty, those at the Eighth Layer of Melding Earth Realm are considered True Disciples within the Seven Great Sects, and here they were just doorkeepers.

Once inside the Wanxing Commerce Association, Yu Weilian directly took Lin Chen to a room on the third floor.

Meanwhile, a maid swiftly went to report to a certain room, and soon after, a graceful figure appeared and approached the two of them.

"Young Master Lin Chen, it’s been a long time!"

When Zhao Lingxi appeared, she was still as pure and ethereal as a fairy, seemingly untouched by the mortal world.

Lin Chen took a few deep looks and then it dawned on him to nod in response, which caused Yu Weilian to burst into laughter again, while Zhao Lingxi’s face turned red with shyness.

"Indeed, it has been a long time, Miss Zhao."

Lin Chen spoke flatly, pondering Zhao Lingxi’s identity and wondering if there was any relation between Zhao Lingxi and the Great Flame Dynasty’s Royal Family, sharing the same surname.

After some inquiry, he discovered that Zhao Lingxi’s father and Zhao Zhongtian were actually brothers.

Goodness, such a connection was probably unknown to many.

It turned out that the Wanxing Commerce Association was an asset owned by the Great Flame Dynasty’s Royal Family; no wonder it was able to become so grand.

"We have heard of Young Master Lin Chen’s affairs as well, and you can rest assured that within the Wanxing Commerce Association, you are absolutely safe.

Soon, we will have an auction. If Young Master Lin Chen has any treasures, you can bring them out, and we will auction them for you, ensuring that the price will not disappoint you."

"Likewise, I believe there will definitely be treasures at the auction that the Young Master will find desirable," Yu Weilian said to Lin Chen.

Lin Chen understood that the other party’s intention was to probe whether he had obtained any treasures from that ancient ruin.

If there really were gains to be had, entrusting these treasures to the Wanxing Commerce Association could likely fetch a good price.

After thinking it over, Lin Chen nodded and agreed to Yu Weilian’s proposal; he also felt that putting the treasures up for auction at the Wanxing Commerce Association might indeed yield the best prices.

Thus, Lin Chen began to take out magic treasures from his Spatial Ring, one after another.
