A Millionfold Return: My Children Cultivate Immortality and I Become a God
Chapter Summary
"Can I trust you, Chairman Wu?" Upon hearing Cai Zhengkun's words, Wu Rulong and Jiang Ye exchanged a glance, as if Cai Zhengkun had some unknown secrets. The one who has a grudge against Yuan Zheng is me, and the vice president of my Earth Dragon Chamber of Commerce!" From Cai Zhengkun's words, Wu Rulong and Jiang Ye learned what had happened. If Cai Zhengkun has truly betrayed me, then you will be the new president of the Earth Dragon Chamber of Commerce.” Upon hearing this, Nie Long's face wa...
What do you mean by that?
Wu Rulong frowned slightly and gave Jiang Ye behind him a look. Jiang Ye was ready to take action.
Upon hearing this, Cai Zhengkun's expression became extremely serious. After some deliberation, he continued to inquire.
"Can I trust you, Chairman Wu?"
Upon hearing Cai Zhengkun's words, Wu Rulong and Jiang Ye exchanged a glance, as if Cai Zhengkun had some unknown secrets.
Thinking of this, Wu Rulong coughed and then slowly said with a standard businessman's smile.
"I can't guarantee you'll trust me, but I can assure you that if you stay here today, no one else will know."
"In that case, I'd like to ask you, are you willing to make a deal with me?"
Cai Zhengkun looked at Wu Rulong and said, his face showing a hint of determination.
Wu Rulong raised an eyebrow.
"Oh, tell me about it?"
"That is, you help me get rid of Yuan Zheng, and I will hand over the Earth Dragon Chamber of Commerce. From now on, I, Cai Zhengkun, am willing to serve you."
To Wu Rulong and Jiang Ye's surprise, Cai Zhengkun's proposed deal was actually like this, which made Wu Rulong and Jiang Ye somewhat astonished.
After all, according to their previous investigation, the relationship between the Earth Dragon Chamber of Commerce and Yuan Zheng was like that of an emperor and his subjects, with Yuan Zheng being the emperor and the Earth Dragon Chamber of Commerce being the subjects.
Moreover, according to their investigation, there shouldn't be any grudges between the Earth Dragon Chamber of Commerce and Yuan Zheng.
As if he had guessed what Wu Rulong and Jiang Ye were thinking, Cai Zhengkun gave a wry smile and said.
"You must be very curious as to why I proposed this kind of deal, right? My Earth Dragon Merchant Guild has no grudges against Yuan Zheng, so why would I take action against Yuan Zheng?"
"In fact, the Earth Dragon Chamber of Commerce has no enmity with Yuan Zheng. The one who has a grudge against Yuan Zheng is me, and the vice president of my Earth Dragon Chamber of Commerce!"
From Cai Zhengkun's words, Wu Rulong and Jiang Ye learned what had happened. The cause of the incident was a long, long time ago, when Yuan Zheng was not the strongest in Huangyuan Domain, and the Earth Dragon Chamber of Commerce did not exist. Cai Zhengkun was just from a small family.
Then, the Cai family was wiped out by Yuan Zheng, leaving only Cai Zhengkun to survive. He became Yuan Zheng's confidant, founded the Earth Dragon Chamber of Commerce, and planned to secretly become stronger before avenging his family.
The same goes for Nie Long; Cai Zhengkun only learned about this by chance after founding the Earth Dragon Chamber of Commerce.
Driven by a desire for revenge, the two joined forces.
"So, I'd like to ask, Chairman Wu, would you agree to make a deal with me? After all, you probably don't want to expend too much effort, right?"
Cai Zhengkun looked at Wu Rulong and asked with an extremely serious expression.
Before Wu Rulong could speak, Jiang Ye, standing to the side, revealed a cold smile and said.
"President Cai, I'm curious, can we trust the Vice President Nie Long you mentioned?"
"That's natural, after all, I also know about the massacre of the Nie family back then."
Cai Zhengkun answered without hesitation, but then quickly realized something and said with a somewhat unpleasant expression.
"Senior Jiang, are you saying that Nie Long would betray me? Nie Long and I are like brothers, there's no way he would betray me."
Upon hearing this, Jiang simply shook his head and then said calmly.
"You can know a person's face but not their heart. Don't assume that Nie Long won't betray you. You'll soon find out whether he will or not."
As Jiang Ye finished speaking, an incredibly terrifying pressure descended upon the Wu Clan Chamber of Commerce.
After feeling the oppressive aura, Cai Zhengkun's expression turned ugly. Having followed Yuan Zheng for so many years, how could he not be familiar with this oppressive aura? It was clearly Yuan Zheng's.
Didn't he tell everyone not to tell Yuan Zheng that he was going to the Wu Clan Chamber of Commerce?
Thinking of this, Cai Zhengkun's heart sank. It seemed that Yuan Zheng had planted someone in the Earth Dragon Chamber of Commerce.
Just then, Wu Rulong spoke up.
"President Cai, I wonder if our deal is still valid?"
Upon hearing this, Cai Zhengkun was slightly taken aback, but quickly recovered and spoke up.
"Of course it counts, but Yuan Zheng is at the peak of the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm. Can you handle him?"
Judging from today's situation, he could naturally see that Wu Rulong was the one in charge of the relationship between Jiang and Jiang, not Jiang Ye.
This led him to a bold guess: Wu Rulong had a powerful force behind him, so powerful that even Jiang was extremely afraid of him. Of course, there was another possibility: Wu Rulong himself was a powerful figure, so powerful that he could not see through his true cultivation level.
"Since that's the case, and Yuan Zheng has also appeared, let's deal with him today as well."
After Wu Rulong finished speaking, he slowly stood up and looked at Cai Zhengkun opposite him.
"Let's go, President Cai, let's go out and meet the strongest person in Huangyuan Domain."
Meanwhile, outside the Wu Clan Chamber of Commerce, Yuan Zheng stood in the air, looking down at the Wu Clan Chamber of Commerce in front of him. Standing next to him was none other than Nie Long, whom Cai Zhengkun had said would never betray him.
At this moment, Nie Long was speaking with a fawning expression.
“Senior Yuan, Cai Zhengkun has indeed come to the Wu Clan Chamber of Commerce, and he plans to join forces with the Wu Clan Chamber of Commerce to eliminate you.”
"I will make a decision on this matter later. But you, aren't you Cai Zhengkun's confidant? Why did you betray him?"
Yuan Zheng looked at Nie Long beside him, his eyes filled with indifference.
Nie Long was slightly taken aback, and quickly said...
"I just don't want to die. Going against you, Senior Yuan, is certain death. I'm only thinking of my Earth Dragon Merchant Guild."
“You are very good. If Cai Zhengkun has truly betrayed me, then you will be the new president of the Earth Dragon Chamber of Commerce.”
Upon hearing this, Nie Long's face was filled with ecstasy. Wasn't everything he had done just to become the president of the Earth Dragon Chamber of Commerce?
You should know that he has been at the peak of the Golden Immortal realm for many years. The reason he has not been able to break through to the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm is because he does not have enough resources. If he becomes the president of the Earth Dragon Chamber of Commerce, then he will definitely have enough resources.
At that time, he will be able to successfully break through to the Great Luo Golden Immortal realm that he has been longing for, and escape the danger of his lifespan running out.
"President Cai, I'm sorry, I'm not that stupid. I still want to live."
Nie Long thought to himself.
Just then, led by Wu Rulong, Cai Zhengkun and Jiang also appeared in front of them.
When Cai Zhengkun saw Nie Long standing next to Yuan Zheng, his expression froze on the spot. As the president of the Earth Dragon Chamber of Commerce, how could he not guess that Nie Long had betrayed him?
