Chapter 999: Chapter 999: Official Alliance

"Hmm, what Qing Yan has said is indeed correct. From now on, our academy will take forty percent, and you, Ling Xiao, will take sixty percent," the white-bearded elder pondered aloud. "After all, the Revival Spirit Pill is your formula, and you rightly deserve this."

"Since the President has said so, I shall not decline," Ling Xiao nodded. Recently, he was in increasing need of Spirit Stones, and there was no need for him to object to the academy’s proposed division of profits.

Besides, any opposition might lead them to wild and speculative thoughts.

It’s also important not to let the academy think that the formula is too cheap, or else they may grow complacent.

It was no wonder that the three high-ranking officials of the academy were so capable. They had managed to withstand many unfavorable situations over the years, standing firm without being completely defeated by Phoenix God College.

"President, the owner of the Heavenly Dragon Auction House, Emma Ya Cloud, has come to pay her respects!" As everyone was discussing the follow-up matters, someone came in to report.

"Please, let her in!" the white-bearded elder urged promptly.

In this matter, the Heavenly Dragon Auction House had given substantial support to Qingxu College, so naturally, as the President, he had a greatly increased fondness for Emma Ya Cloud.

Moments later, the graceful figure of Emma Ya Cloud glided through the door, and before she even spoke, her bell-like, melodious voice rang out.

"Hehehe, it’s good to see everyone here. Emma Ya Cloud greets you all."

This woman entered the council hall like a blossoming rose, her fragrance pervading and her demeanor charming many to the point of near obsession.

Even Ling Xiao was momentarily dazzled by her appearance.

Emma Ya Cloud had clearly dressed with care, her traditional long dress with high slits wrapping tightly around her alluring figure.

Even though it wasn’t revealing, the inherent sauciness exuded was enough to mesmerize all who beheld her.

"A truly rare beauty indeed!" This was the thought in everyone’s minds, including those of the female executives, who were also won over by Emma Ya Cloud’s charms.

But most of these executives were worldly and capable of regaining their composure quickly after their initial astonishment.

The white-bearded elder smiled mildly and said, "It’s truly an honor for Emma Ya Cloud to visit our Qingxu College. Please have a seat. Servants, prepare the finest tea and don’t neglect our esteemed benefactor!"

Even without the recent events, the white-bearded elder would never have offended Emma Ya Cloud.

He was well aware of how substantial her backing was; this woman was certainly not as simple as just being a princess of the Sacred Dynasty.

It was said that she followed Ji Fulin and Yu Xuan Yue to Heaven’s Chosen Gate at a very young age, but later returned to the Heavenly Dragon Continent alone.

When asked about what had happened, she claimed to have forgotten everything.

Many who tried to coerce her into revealing the secrets of Heaven’s Chosen Gate did not live to see another day.

Since then, everyone understood the fearsomeness of this woman.

"President, you are too kind. What help could I possibly provide? In the end, it’s Young Master Ling who is impressive, and we too have benefited from this occasion," Emma Ya Cloud said with a light smile and alluring charm.

"Princess Emma Ya Cloud, no need to call me ’Young Master’ anymore, just Ling Xiao will do. After all, you are my senior," Ling Xiao said with a slight smile.

He had never really liked being called "Young Master Ling," but he had never objected to it before either.

But now, being addressed that way in front of so many people, he truly felt uncomfortable.

Young Master, indeed.

He, Ling Xiao, didn’t have the right to be called a hero.

For the hero, the cause is one’s country and people.

He still had a long way to go.

"May I ask what brings you to Qingxu College this time, Miss Yun Ya?"

Feng Qingyan asked with a smile.

"Actually, it’s nothing special, mainly to make a trade with you."

Yun Ya spoke with her usual calm and ease.

"Trade?"

"Yes, as you probably know, the Revival Spirit Pill, though not of a high grade, is a very popular item on the markets of the Phoenix God Continent, Heavenly Dragon Continent, Five Immortal Islands, and the Six Great Martial Arts Islands, and even enjoys good sales on the White Tiger Continent."

Yun Ya answered, "What I mean is, from now on we will put our full effort into supplying herb materials to Qingxu College, and leave the pill sales in the Heavenly Dragon Continent, White Tiger Continent, Five Immortal Islands, and the Six Great Martial Arts Islands to our Heavenly Dragon Auction House. We’ll split the final profits fifty-fifty, how’s that?"

"What a great idea!"

Feng Qingyan’s eyes lit up immediately.

The sphere of influence of Qingxu College was, at most, limited to the Phoenix God Empire and the neighboring small countries—it couldn’t control anything beyond that.

If the Heavenly Dragon Auction House was willing to cooperate and sell pills for them, this was nothing short of a perfect match—and an absolutely win-win situation.

"But, Miss Yun Ya, I’ve always been puzzled. From the time you stopped supplying Phoenix God College with herb materials to now helping us sell pills, these have all been tremendously beneficial for Qingxu College. Why would you do this?"

Feng Qingyan was a cautious man. Due to Heavenly Dragon Auction House being exceedingly good to Qingxu College recently, he couldn’t help but worry that the other party had other ulterior motives.

Yun Ya giggled, "I’ve long heard that Vice President Feng Qingyan is a person of meticulous thoughts. Meeting you today, I see it’s true. Well, there’s no other reason. We’re just fulfilling someone else’s request and have received many benefits in return. Now you understand, right?

"Could it be the backer behind Ling Xiao?"

Feng Qingyan exclaimed.

"Hehe, you could think of it that way. Of course, you could also consider that Ling Xiao gave us enough benefits."

Yun Ya chuckled, "From now on, at the very least on the Phoenix God Continent, you and we will become allies fighting in the same trench."

"So it’s like that!"

Feng Qingyan looked at Ling Xiao with even more admiration and confusion.

He didn’t know what Ling Xiao had given to Yun Ya to make the traditionally neutral Heavenly Dragon Auction House make such a decision.

"Ah, you really did accept a good student. I don’t understand—was Phoenix God College really blind? Such a good student and they were unwilling to take him in."

Yun Ya sighed with a hint of envy.

"Hahaha, Miss Yun Ya said it well. But if Phoenix God College hadn’t been blind, how could we have had the good fortune to accept such a fine student?"

Huo Pili laughed heartily.

"That’s true too! Well, I’ve made today’s matters clear. Once you are ready with the formal trade contract, you can come and sign at the Heavenly Dragon Auction House any time."

After saying her piece, Yun Ya let out a light chuckle as she rose to her feet, "May I borrow Ling Xiao for a moment?"

"Of course, Ling Xiao, please escort Miss Yun Ya."

Feng Qingyan said with a smile as he looked at Ling Xiao.

"Disciple obeys!"

Once outside, Ling Xiao suddenly turned to Yun Ya, "This trade wasn’t my request, was it?"

"What? Are you not happy with it, Young Master?"

Yun Ya was startled and asked.

Originally, she did this to please Ling Xiao, but now she suddenly felt that Ling Xiao might not be pleased, which naturally concerned her.
