"Holy King, you brought two people to guard the territory, so that their experts wouldn't be able to reach this place for the time being. The three of you, together with the original defense of the base, are enough; the Demon King, Thief King, you two lead four people to protect the other two lords of Green Province, and since they attacked me, the two forces naturally wouldn't let them go. Kill King, you lead two of your former subordinates and penetrate into the enemy ranks. With the twelve of you making your move, I want to make sure no one from the Divine Church of Light can return! "
With a thought, the 12 left their space and accepted their orders. When the Demon King and the Holy King were alive, they were the two teachers of St. Bist Royal Academy and could be considered to be old foxes of an old age; Thief King was the leader of Moon Howling Wolf and had been in the world for many years, what had he not seen before? As for the Kill King, he was also a small head of the Assassin Empire, especially now that he was promoted to a golden-furred zombie equivalent to the Element Emperor level. His assassination abilities were comparable to those reclusive old antiques of the Assassin Empire. These people had higher social experience than ordinary people, and with their current abilities, and their skills, Tian Cheng did not need to worry about them at all.
After exiting the secret room, Tian Cheng directly came to the merchant guild. Even though Divine Church of Light was a great offense against Green Province, which blasphemed the God of Light, and violated Divine Prison, Grey's Chamber of Commerce was still a good business. Such a large building, and there were shadows everywhere. The people coming and going had never stopped.
A merchant guild having such a huge conflict with Divine Church of Light, yet being able to maintain such an efficient operation, this was a rare occurrence in the entire continent.
It was true that the disciples of the Divine Church of Light were everywhere in the world, and a large majority of the disciples of the Green Province were also their disciples.
If this had happened somewhere else, it would have happened a long time ago, but this time it was different. The followers of Divine Church of Light, on the other hand, did not make a sound, and instead followed the path of the territory's regular army, forming one people's group after another to help Grey Family to fight against Divine Church of Light.
Why did this happen? Because they had figured it out and understood it! After all these years, what did his Divine Church of Light give us? Wasn't it just a minor illness from using the rule of light magic? Furthermore, the fees were extremely expensive. Normal people could not even afford to pay for it! But what did Grey Family bring over? That was the real benefit, the security!
Let's not talk about anything else. Just the exemption from three years' taxes is worth remembering for all eternity! And there was that employment and planting plant. It was to the liking of all the commoners. All the commoners could eat their fill and wear warm clothing. The development of Grey's Chamber of Commerce had also spurred the development of the provincial economy. Wasn't it because of Grey Family that the backward and poor Green Province had become rich and powerful?
Didn't you say you're here to attack Grey Family to destroy our happiness? Shall we do something, or are we just one person? When the two great lords, Fan Te, Dila, Hiller, and Pudd heard that Tian Cheng wanted to merge their armies, they immediately agreed without saying a word and they were extremely cooperative during the process. As for Klee Athy, who was appointed by Tian Cheng as the president of the Grey's Chamber of Commerce Branch, he had long given some of the authority in his territory to Tian Cheng.
In the days that Tian Cheng had set up the Grey's Chamber of Commerce, the three Level Lords had tasted the sweetness that they did not even dare to think of. Just the five percent of the shares were enough for them to hide from laughing. Moreover, the three of them were all core members of the Grey's Chamber of Commerce. A year's worth of benefits was more than the time they spent guarding those lands, so much that they didn't even know where they were going. Therefore, as long as Tian Cheng had something he wanted to speak with them, they would agree without even saying a word. As for the other minor nobles, there was no need to mention them.
Just based on the line of 'people's hearts', even if Tian Cheng didn't have that much fighting strength, he still wouldn't have lost to the Divine Church of Light.
After walking in with a smile, a few beautiful female servants quickly put down the work they were doing and welcomed Tian Cheng. They were all yearning towards this president!
"Alright, alright. We're all going to work. Our guild leader has come here with great difficulty. Don't scare him away!" Not long later, the two vice presidents Angela and Angelina walked up and roared at the group of lecherous girls, and then the two sisters pulled Tian Cheng into their own office.
A delicate fragrance unique to females wafted through the room, Tian Cheng accidentally inhaled a few more mouthfuls of air. Right now, the two Angela sisters had completely turned from a talented young lady into a strong female businessman. That unique aura that even Tian Cheng could not stand was, not to mention being busy everywhere, he would not mind drinking wine with the two beauties and having a casual chat with them.
"I'm also here to take a look and see if this Divine Church of Light will have any effect on our economy. I'm very satisfied with this result. You two have troubled yourselves. I will give you some special rewards later on!" Tian Cheng said as he looked around.
"Young Master Tian Cheng, is it really as simple as' very satisfied '? If you look at those orders, which are too thick for you, I can assure you, you won't mind changing the word. " Angela said coquettishly as she leaned towards Tian Cheng, whether intentionally or not.
"Yes, Young Master!" This war of Divine Church of Light is like a stimulant for them. I don't need to talk about the merchants in the country, many of the foreign merchant guilds have come over and are insisting on giving us a large deposit. Right now, our company's capital, in addition to the several hundred million gold coins given to you, has already reached five hundred million gold coins, and is still increasing. " Angina rolled her eyes. At the same time, she was excited, but she also had some doubts. A woman's sixth sense, coupled with her special understanding of business, made her feel that this was definitely not a simple matter.
Laughing indifferently, Tian Cheng said: "You don't know about that! There were a lot of people supporting him on the continent with Divine Church of Light, but there were not a lot of big powers in the middle. Furthermore, they all knew what Divine Church of Light was going to do next, and this was a serious threat to their interests! Right now, Divine Church of Light want to start a war with me, as the first shot of the war, and my strength isn't weak either. They can't help me on the surface, so of course they have to support me using different methods.
For something like a down payment, they were also gambling. If they won the bet, then no matter what, they would not suffer any loss. Furthermore, it could be said that they had made a huge profit! So it means that they have won the friendship from our Grey's Chamber of Commerce, and gained a lot of benefits from the transaction. More importantly, we can also reduce the threat our Divine Church of Light posed to them. If we lose the bet, it's just a bit more, so it's nothing to them. "
As if they had awoken from a dream, the two women cursed the treachery of these merchants while taking note of this way of thinking. As the leader of a merchant guild, they must master this.
"Young Master, the person in charge of the 'Hall of Gods' has been here for several days. Because you have been in closed door cultivation the entire time, he did not dare to disturb you. But we've already discussed the basic way of cooperation. On the sixth floor, we've already opened a special counter for a series of items, such as scrolls. Now, those things are basically all in operation. "
This was the reason why the two vice guild leaders dragged Tian Cheng to such a hidden place to discuss matters. Although the current Grey Family had completely fallen out with the Divine Church of Light, and there was no meaning to keep it a secret or publicize it, the Hall of Gods was an ancient and mysterious organization, and only a few people in the territory knew of this matter.
Nodding, Tian Cheng asked: Where is he? I will personally go and see him. It's not good to neglect him like this! "
"Lord Tian Cheng, is there a need to be so courteous between us?" A familiar voice came from outside as a woman dressed in white appeared in front of Tian Cheng and the other two. Compared to Angela and Angelina, Christian had an unfathomable mystery, a mystery that men were interested in exploring.
"Thanks to Lord Tian Cheng. Because of your appearance, my position in 'Hall of Gods' rose by a lot. Otherwise, this' emissary 'who converts with Lord Tian Cheng wouldn't have been able to get me." Christian laughed and looked at the two women beside Tian Cheng: "Should we find a quiet place to talk about the cooperation?"
"No need. We're all on the same side. Just say it here!" After saying that, Tian Cheng took out a bottle of 'Awakening From the Dream', and the two girls immediately fell down, feeling overjoyed.
"Alright, I'll be frank." Christian did not argue. He sat down and said, "Before I say these things, I want an answer. Master Tian Cheng, was that vote from 'Divine Prison' did you do it?"
"Is it important?"
"Yes, very important!"
"Alright! I admit that I did it! " Tian Cheng admitted it straightforwardly.
"It really is you!" Even though Christian had almost known the result before, there was still a look of shock on her pretty face.
She then stood up and knelt down on one knee. She took out a snow-white badge and said respectfully: Lord Tian Cheng, no, Vice Hall Master, this is your Vice Hall Master badge. From today onwards, you will be the Vice Hall Master of the Hall of Gods! Hall of Gods currently had 328 special ability users, 4 auxiliary hall masters and 1 auxiliary hall master. Other than the Palace Masters and the three Vice Hall Masters, everyone in Hall of Gods has the authority to kill and live! "
The Vice Hall Master of Hall of Gods, this official was not the slightest bit smaller than those generals who controlled an army of one million! Even though there were only three hundred people in the Hall of Gods, they had an extremely long history, and the secrets they contained were extremely deep. Furthermore, every single one of these three hundred people possessed extraordinary abilities. The position of Vice Hall Master was comparable to the position that Tian Cheng held as the Guild Master of the Merchant Guild.
"Isn't it a bit too much for you to give me such a huge seat right after joining?" Helping Christian up, Tian Cheng asked, but in his heart he was roaring: This Hall of Gods is too sensible, I like it too much!
"It's absolutely not big! Vice Hall Master, you being able to destroy the foundation of Divine Prison by yourself that exceeds a thousand years is sufficient to prove your strength! This position was unanimously agreed upon by all the core members of the Hall of Gods. The Lord Hallmaster has also said that if your cultivation and contribution level reaches a certain level, he can give you the position of 'Hallmaster' at any time. Furthermore, we plan to build a teleportation circle in the Grey's Chamber of Commerce. Since you are already a Vice Hall Master, you must return to the Main Hall to take a look.
"Don't! Please don't! I am already a little unable to bear being the head of a merchant guild. If I were to continue to be the hall master, I'm afraid that someone might end up dying. As for the teleportation circle, I'll handle it. You should have 'coordinates' on you! "
Receiving the slip of paper from Kris, Tian Cheng immediately threw it towards his disciple, Pullman, who was in the midst of discussing the spatial array with a few old men. After chatting for a while, after understanding some things about Hall of Gods, Tian Cheng rode Thouder Soul to the battlefield at the edge of the territory.
At this moment, the two armies were facing off against each other. The two hundred thousand soldiers were standing neatly outside of the city wall. They were densely packed, and the flag that was raised was the symbol of the sun and the light of the sun! Inside the city walls, above them, the Grey Family's hundred thousand troops were also well-prepared. All kinds of new weapons, bright black armor, gleaming swords and spears, and the dense fighting intent in their eyes, all proved that this was a true army of tigers and wolves!
Facing this army of Grey Family, Ri Feng who was outside did not make a move for a long time, as if he was waiting for something or was afraid of something.
Tian Cheng immediately flew up the city walls, then came to the side of the Grarris siblings who were discussing something with the three teachers.
"Hello, Young Master!" All the soldiers saluted Tian Cheng together, the excitement on their faces revealing itself without any concealment.
"Since it's like this, let's skip all these formalities!" Tian Cheng laughed: "This situation doesn't seem bad! The last thing I want to see is something that hasn't happened yet. If there was a war, there would be death. Blood flowed like a river and corpses piled up in the wilderness, this was something that Tian Cheng was unwilling to do, but he had no choice but to face. Seeing that this situation did not occur, he felt at ease from the bottom of his heart.
"Young master, in the past few days, my Divine Church of Light has already attacked our army no less than five times, but every time it was blocked by our 'Hundred Steps Through the Yang'. That's what you mean, too. Try to hold them back as long as you can. But we won't be able to hold on for long, the Hundred Feet Piercing Sun is powerful, but since we are too far away from them and the armor we use against them isn't a decoration, we can't do too much damage. Besides, we can't afford to stop the amount of arrows we have stored! Do you think it's time for us to launch a counterattack and cheer for our troops and extinguish the prestige of Divine Church of Light and those bastards? "
Grarris frowned, and waited quietly for his reply. Ever since he had become sensible, he had been thinking about how to take revenge on Divine Church of Light. Now that such a great opportunity had come, he wished that he could just charge in and kill them all.
Tian Cheng walked forward, looked at the black mass of troops, and stayed silent for a moment. Then, he raised one hand, and loudly said: "Soldiers, listen up! Open the city gates! Kill without mercy! "
Recently, he had been taking exams and going back to work after summer vacation to earn a living. He had been wanting to finish this book and continue writing the next one, but he couldn't. In addition to the lack of time during the summer vacation, it would probably continue for a period of time. Chenfeng worked hard to find time to write while he worked, and he hoped that everyone would continue to support him!
