Eternal life begins with saving my clan

Chapter 54 : The massive deal with the merchant families.

Inside the Crimson Jade Pavilion's main hall, three people sat in a room on the highest floor, looking at the bustling city below.

"Do you know what is going on in the barren land?" Branch Manager Gong asked, with slight puzzlement written on his face.

"The barren land has been in chaos these past couple of days," he added.

"I don't know…" Branch Manager Yu shook her head. "But I guess it must be related to the Su Sacred Clan. The barren land is in chaos."

"I guess so?" Manager Gong nodded.

"We must make sure to destroy them when the director arrives. We can't let such a pest exist in our land," he added with grievance evident in his tone.

Hearing this, Wu Bin and Manager Yu exchanged subtle glances and shook their heads.

'Destroy the Su Sacred Clan?! It's easier said than done,' Wu Bin thought in disdain.

With the Su Clan now holding power over the barren land, how could it be easy to destroy them?

Not to talk of them having such absurd armor that was impossible to imitate.

They've learned in the past couple of days that the Celestial Heavenly Sect soldiers had special armor worn by their elite soldiers, which was twice as powerful as the normal Metal Bone Construct.

With such armors, how would it be easy to defeat them?

And not to talk of their new invention—The Spirit Comms.

Thinking of the Spirit Comms, Wu Bin's gaze changed into surprise.

"Have you tested the Spirit Comms?" She asked, staring at the two seated opposite her with bright eyes.

Compared to the armors, the Spirit Comms were more magical than anything she had seen or heard in her life.

When both branch managers heard her question, their expressions turned into awe, and they nodded.

"I didn't believe such a thing could be possible, but when I tried it, I was shocked!" Branch Manager Gong said, his voice laced with shock and awe.

"I even asked one of my subordinates to travel to other barren lands to test its claims, but it was all true," Branch Manager Yu added.

"Even in the recent time before the arrival of the Bloodmoon Envoy, I didn't think such a thing was possible… but now…" Wu Bin said, her voice trailing off.

"That's why I insisted that we must destroy them completely and get the secret of these magical inventions from that boy named Su Yen. I believe he must be the one creating them," Branch Manager Gong insisted, his eyes shining with unhidden greed and jealousy.

Looking at the greed on his face, Wu Bin and Branch Manager Yu also couldn't contain the jealousy in their hearts.

As branch managers, they all knew the allure of such devices. Perhaps the armor may not get the attention of powerful clans outside the barren land.

But the Spirit Comms? Everyone needs them.

Such a magical device was a must-have for everyone.

After fantasizing about how they would behave when the Celestial Heavenly Sect was destroyed by their main office, they regained their calm, and Branch Manager Yu asked, "When will the director arrive?"

"In two weeks," Wu Bin responded.

It would be a lie if she said she wasn't anticipating their arrival. The allure of selling the Spirit Comms in their store and the profit they would make were so great that their mouths were salivating.

While the Crimson Jade Pavilion was daydreaming about the destruction of the Celestial Heavenly Sect, the Celestial Heavenly Sect was having a meeting with some merchant clans.

It had been a week since the sudden appearance of the desert sand men and their destruction.

However, the Celestial Heavenly Sect had not relaxed at all.

After chasing the desert sand men into the desert, they found out that dousing water on them didn't work on the desert.

Moreover, their massive population shocked them to their core. Thus, they could only retreat and look at the desert sand men from a distance.

While also, the desert sand men didn't dare step out of the desert. Else a large bucket of water was waiting for them.

Besides, thousands of soldiers were stationed near the desert monitoring their movements.

Therefore, the barren land was in a delicate peace.

Inside the martial hall, Su Yen sat on the main seat and looked at the top merchants in the barren land with a sharp gaze.

On his right and left were the three inner elders, and both his brother and sister sat on the other side.

"Like the previous deal I made with you, I'm willing to extend the Spirit Comms olive branch to you if you're willing," he began slowly.

When the merchant families heard this, their eyes brightened. None of them could conceal the joy in their hearts.

They had long been waiting for an invitation from the Celestial Heavenly Sect, but the sudden appearance of the desert sand men pushed everything back.

But now, it seemed it's time for them to enter the market.

Regaining their calm, one of the top families said with a respectful voice.

"Thank you, Sect Master, for considering our families. We will make sure not to disappoint you," Shu patriarch said with a slight bow.

"Good. For you to be part of the deal, this is what you need to do…" Su Yen quickly explained the clauses in the deal to the families.

Looking at them, Su Yen had mentally prepared for some of the families to reject his absurd deal, but to his dismay, every one of them agreed.

He was planning to recruit over one million soldiers and equip them with at least Metal Bone Construct.

Also, the Celestial Heavenly Sect military barracks would be situated at every part of the barren land.

Therefore, they needed a large capital to fund their military campaign in the shortest time.

With the birth of the ancient seal demon, Su Yen was tight on time.

He needed to strengthen the barren land as soon as possible before the next threat before them.

That's why he called the merchant families to make a deal with them, not expecting much from them.

Only for him to be shocked.

Back in the martial hall, a bright smile crept up on Su Yen's face as he muttered, 'Good. Good,' twice.

"Since all of you agreed. Let's sign the contract immediately."
