I Can Travel between Two Worlds

Lin Chen was in Qinghe City.

But his communication device was commanding the Martial Arts Puppet Long Ba, seven thousand miles away.

"Yes, Master!"

In Guangyuan Town, after receiving the order, Long Ba walked into the Guangyuan Auction venue.

Compared to six months ago, the business of the Guangyuan Auction had declined considerably.

The reason was that Lin Chen hadn’t provided any Golden Yuan Pills for the past two months.

The Guangyuan Auction had been able to attract cultivators from all over because the Golden Yuan Pill had built its reputation.

And now, the auction hadn’t sold any Golden Yuan Pills for two consecutive months, causing a substantial loss of customers.

Long Ba, wearing a mask, walked into the backstage of the auction.

The nano camera in his eye transmitted the images in real-time to Lin Chen.

Soon, Long Ba stood before Chairman Liu.

"Chairman Liu, I am here to collect the final payment," Long Ba said in a low voice.

"What final payment..."

Chairman Liu was initially taken aback, but upon seeing Long Ba’s appearance, his expression immediately changed slightly.

He hurriedly whispered, "Follow me to the private room..."

Once inside the private room, Chairman Liu could no longer hide his excitement.

"Master Five Thunders... is he well?"

According to Lin Chen’s orders, Long Ba coldly said:

"That’s not for Chairman Liu to worry about. The five Golden Yuan Pills we sent for auction before, along with the spirit stones for various magical treasures... are yet to be collected."

Upon hearing this, Chairman Liu quickly handed over a storage bag.

"It’s all in here, would you like to check?"

Long Ba didn’t even glance at it and just put away the storage bag, then turned to leave.

Seeing this, Chairman Liu became anxious.

He hurriedly reached out to stop him:

"Mr. Long Ba, please don’t leave yet, our transaction..."

Long Ba didn’t even turn his head and simply said:

"The transaction is canceled. From now on, our Wind Spirit Moon Shadow Sect will no longer consign items for auction here."

Hearing this, Chairman Liu was taken aback.

As Long Ba was about to walk out of the private room, he had no choice but to reluctantly step forward to block him:

"Mr. Long Ba... can you tell me the reason? Is it because of Blood Eye Old Demon’s bounty?"

"But we’ve been working together for several years... don’t we even have that little bit of trust?"

Chairman Liu’s eyes were filled with bloodshot lines, his body leaned forward, even reaching out to press down on Long Ba’s shoulder.

In the past two or three years of cooperating with Lin Chen, he had gained a lot of benefits.

The division of Guangyuan Town’s commerce association had a monthly turnover of more than five hundred thousand.

In just two and a half years, this one branch alone had provided over three million spirit stones in profit for the headquarters.

It even once became the most profitable branch among the many in Qing State.

And Chairman Liu himself also reaped tremendous benefits.

Receiving the support of the association, he was nominated as vice-chairman of the headquarters, and also advanced to the Golden Core Stage.

Things were looking bright for his future...

If he worked in this place for another three to five years, getting a vice-chairman position at the headquarters was within reach.

But two months ago, the auction’s turnover plummeted.

Because the Golden Yuan Pills were sold out.

The monthly turnover that used to exceed five hundred thousand dropped directly to two hundred thousand, and this month... it even fell below ten thousand.

It’s not even comparable to the turnover during Chairman Zheng’s time.

At this rate, dreaming of becoming the headquarter’s vice-chairman... he might not even qualify to remain a branch chairman.

Therefore, in the past two months, he had been thinking day and night about Master Five Thunders.

Dreaming numerous times about hoping Master Five Thunders would secretly meet him again to consign another batch of Golden Yuan Pills...

Although Master Five Thunders didn’t come now.

But Long Ba came, and although he knew it was just a puppet before him.

Chairman Liu still maintained a humble posture, gritting his teeth as he said:

"Mr. Long Ba, we promise not to betray the Master!"

"As long as the Master is willing to continue consigning Golden Yuan Pills... we, our Guangyuan Commerce Association, are willing to support the actions of the Righteous Alliance!"

As he said this, Chairman Liu’s voice trembled.

It was evident that he had undergone a struggle within himself.

The association, which could operate smoothly everywhere, was precisely because it never easily got involved in the conflicts between factions, only focusing on making money.

And now, he’s promising to assist the Righteous Alliance—such determination was clear.

...

Meanwhile, seven thousand miles away, Lin Chen received the synchronous message and footage from Long Ba.

Lin Chen squinted his eyes, observing the emotional tension in front of Chairman Liu.

Honestly speaking, he couldn’t take the risk, but neither did he want to lose the sizable income from auctioning Golden Yuan Pills.

Therefore, he needed to probe further.

Then, Long Ba said softly:

"I don’t think there’s any need for that. You should just focus on managing your internal affairs of the auction first!"

After saying that, Long Ba turned to leave.

Behind him, upon hearing this, Chairman Liu was stunned.

Focus on the internal affairs of the association? What does that mean...

Could it be that there’s a traitor within the association? Wanting to betray Master Five Thunders?

A shiver ran through Chairman Liu’s heart, and he quickly stepped forward, saying:

"What does the Master mean... does he suspect a traitor within our association?"

"I swear on my life..."

When halfway through, Chairman Liu stopped speaking.

Blood Eye Old Demon’s bounty on Xu Shi, after a year of fermentation, had already reached three hundred and fifty thousand spirit stones!

For anyone providing accurate intelligence, a reward of one hundred thousand spirit stones was offered.

Even the intelligence on Master Five Thunders or Han the Sixth was valued over fifty thousand spirit stones.

With such a substantial sum of spirit stones at stake, Chairman Liu couldn’t be sure there were no traitors under his command.

So, he gritted his teeth and said:

"Give me one month’s time for the Master!"

"Within a month, I promise there will be no traitors in the guild!"

Long Ba hesitated for a moment, then nodded: "Alright!"

Subsequently, Long Ba left the Guangyuan Commerce Association.

After leaving the association, Long Ba didn’t leave Guangyuan Town because now was not the right time.

If he left, he would surely be targeted by cultivators coveting the bounty.
