Li Yunjing agreed with a smile, then explained many things to the two women, vaguely mentioning Zhao Qiâs situation during the conversation.
XingâEr and YueâEr didnât have any objections, which made Li Yunjing breathe a sigh of relief.
The last thing he wanted was to spend time coaxing women over these troublesome issues.
XingâEr and YueâEr being so understanding saved him a lot of trouble, greatly improving his mood.
Early the next morning, Li Yunjing quietly left the "Star Moon Trading Company No.3 Store".
He still needed to return to "Feiyun Island" once to pick up Zhao Qi, after which they could return to the mainland.
When he saw Zhao Qi again on "Feiyun Island", half a year had passed.
"Husband, youâre finally back! I thought youâd abandoned me!"
Upon seeing Li Yunjing again, Zhao Qi suppressed the excitement in her heart, her eyes glistening as she teased, "If you donât want me anymore, Iâll just find another man to marry!"
"Uh..."
Li Yunjing was speechless, did she want to cuckold him?
That was impossible!
The day someone became Li Yunjingâs woman, she would be his for a lifetime.
If Zhao Qi dared to betray him, Li Yunjing vowed he could kill both the adulterer and adulteress with his own hands.
"Alright! Donât say such nonsense! How could I not want you? Am I such a heartless person?"
Of course, he couldnât voice his thoughts; Li Yunjing smiled as he placated the woman in front of him.
"Hehe! I knew you love me the most, hubby!"
Getting the answer she wanted, Zhao Qi was in a great mood, pretending to look pitiful as she smiled coyly.
"Alright! Get yourself ready! Weâre preparing to leave! Before returning to the mainland, weâre going to a place!"
Li Yunjing smiled at Zhao Qi.
"Where to?"
Zhao Qi was taken aback, her big eyes full of curiosity.
"To the headquarters of the Four Seas Commerce Association!"
Li Yunjing said softly, a hint of a sneer on his lips.
"Oh! The East Sea First Commerce Association? Are you going to buy something?"
Zhao Qi asked curiously.
Apparently, the reputation of the "Four Seas Commerce Association" wasnât limited to the "Feiyun Sea Region", as Zhao Qi, even from the far "Lingyuan Island Sea Region", had heard of its name.
"Exactly! I heard that the âFour Seas Commerce Associationâ is holding an auction, so weâre going to take a look! After participating in this auction, we might not come back for a few years!"
Li Yunjing said with some emotion.
"The Four Seas Commerce Association is holding an auction? Isnât it not the right time yet?"
Zhao Qi knew about the "Four Seas Commerce Associationâs" auction, but the timing didnât seem right!
"Youâre behind on the news!"
Li Yunjing nodded, "Our âStar Moon Trading Companyâsâ auction caused quite a stir! The âFour Seas Commerce Associationâ felt threatened, so they held it in advance to gain popularity!"
Li Yunjing then briefly explained the grievances between the two commerce associations.
"Huh? You have such a big grudge with the âFour Seas Commerce Associationâ and still dare to go there? You should know that there are Nascent Soul Realm experts in the âFour Seas Commerce Associationâ! And more than just two or three!"
Zhao Qi widened her eyes, looking at Li Yunjing like he was a monster!
Her husband was so bold!
This was like knowing the mountain had tigers, yet heading straight towards them!
"Thereâs no choice!"
Li Yunjing shook his head and said, "âThe headquarters of the Four Seas Commerce Association is the largest trading market in the East Sea! In the Immortal Cultivation Realm, basically all famous items can be found there."
"Cultivators from major Sea Regions travel to the âFour Seas Commerce Associationâ to trade resources when they canât find what they need elsewhere!"
"If we go there, participate in the auction, and get some good stuff, we can return to the Great Ming Cultivation Realm with peace of mind!"
"You know that the task from the âGuanghan Palaceâsâ senior is weighing on my heart; without strength, we canât go to the âLand of the Far Northâ!"
Li Yunjing shared his thoughts with Zhao Qi.
"I see."
Zhao Qi suddenly understood and said, "I get it! To go to the âLand of the Far Northâ, weâre taking a bit of a risk! But we should disguise ourselves, right?"
"Of course!"
Li Yunjing nodded, smirking, "At that time, you can call me Li Wutian! Back when I was weaker, I always used this alias when traveling! By then, Iâll change my appearance too, and even a typical Golden Core Realm cultivator wonât be able to tell itâs me!"
"Alright! I also have my own Disguise Technique, so no one will recognize me!"
Zhao Qi nodded, feeling a bit more at ease.
She was just afraid Li Yunjing was too arrogant to hide his tracks.
She hadnât expected her husband to be much more agreeable than sheâd thought.
What Zhao Qi didnât know was that Li Yunjing had confidence, which is why he was a bit arrogant; if he sensed danger, heâd disregard any identity or reputation!
"Letâs disguise ourselves now and leave âFeiyun Islandâ!"
Li Yunjing added another sentence.
"Huh? Now?"
Zhao Qi was puzzled.
A hint of a cold smile hung on Li Yunjingâs lips, "Earlier, when I left âFeiyun Islandâ, I was ambushed by two experts at the Sixth and Seventh Heaven of the Golden Core Realm! I suspect someone on the island is watching us with malicious intent!"
"Golden Core Realm Sixth Heaven! Seventh Heaven!"
Upon hearing this, Zhao Qi couldnât help but shudder.
She had a basic understanding of how powerful cultivators at the Sixth and Seventh Heaven of the Golden Core Realm were, given her own Foundation Establishment Realm Ninth Layer cultivation; such a strong figure could probably crush her with a finger!
And these experts couldnât kill her husband, so how high was Li Yunjingâs combat power?
"Donât worry! That Golden Core Realm Sixth Heaven cultivator was killed by me!"
Li Yunjing smirked, "But that Seventh Heaven cultivator seemed quite strange! When I was fighting them, the second strongest from âFeiyun Sectâ unexpectedly appeared to help!"
"I really donât understand how that woman knew I was being attacked or why she helped me!"
