Chapter 138 Good or Bad Eyes
Meanwhile, in Mofeng City.
The location of the Muyun Chamber of Commerce branch.
Inside a grand hall, Wen Siyue sat in the main seat, reviewing all the information about the Muyun Chamber of Commerce branch in Mofeng City during this period, recording it, and returning to report it to her family.
In the past two months, she has also inspected various resource points and shops related to the Muyun Chamber of Commerce in Mofeng City.
The branch's senior management also cooperated fully with Wen Siyue's mission, making her information gathering work much smoother.
"Thank you for your help, President Xuanqi. I will certainly report back truthfully upon my return to the family."
A moment later, Wen Siyue put down the last jade slip, having completely collected all the information about the Muyun Chamber of Commerce branch, and smiled brightly at Wen Xuanqi.
Upon seeing this, Wen Xuanqi cupped his hands in a respectful bow and said, "You're too kind, Miss. It's what I should do."
Buzz!
Just then, a strange and rapid fluctuation came from the outside, startling Wen Xuanqi.
Now that important matters are at hand, he had already told his subordinates that they should not be disturbed here unless it was something important.
However, it seems that something major has happened in Mofeng City, so much so that his subordinates have resorted to emergency means to send him a message.
Thinking of this, Wen Xuanqi cupped his hands in greeting to Wen Siyue, and with a flick of his wrist, a sound transmission talisman quickly landed inside the main hall.
Immediately afterwards, Wen Xuanqi grabbed him and poured his magic into him. Soon, a rapid and horrified voice rang in his ears, making his face look extremely surprised and even incredulous.
"What's wrong, President Xuanqi? Is there something important?"
When Wen Siyue saw the branch president's flustered expression, she frowned slightly and spoke softly.
Upon hearing this, Wen Xuanqi immediately realized what was happening, and his expression turned somewhat strange. He immediately cupped his hands in a salute, "Young Miss, Xu Yun, a Class C Elder of our Muyun Chamber of Commerce, has just emerged from seclusion. According to reports from his subordinates, he has already broken through to the Foundation Establishment stage, which has alarmed Mofeng City."
Upon hearing this, Wen Siyue was stunned and remained speechless for a long time.
Who has broken through to the Foundation Establishment stage?
Xu Yun?
That third-class retainer whom she considered insignificant?
"How...how could this be? Wasn't Xu Yun nearing the age of sixty and desperately trying to break through? He actually did break through to the Foundation Establishment stage?"
Wen Siyue was deeply shocked. Logically speaking, most cultivators who break through the Foundation Establishment bottleneck at this age are those who want to fight desperately as they are about to reach the age of six thousand.
These cultivators almost never have enough foundation to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage, and the vast majority end up failing.
In Wen Siyue's eyes, Xu Yun was naturally such a cultivator, ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth, lacking in foundation, and it was already a stroke of luck that he was able to survive after failing to break through to the Foundation Establishment stage.
However, at this moment, according to Wen Xuanqi, Xu Yun, whom she had previously considered insignificant, had actually successfully broken through to the Foundation Establishment stage, which made Wen Siyue somewhat incredulous.
This shock even brought her back to the time when Xu Yun saved her and she fell in love with him.
At that time, she felt that Xu Yun had an extraordinary demeanor, was courageous and resourceful, and would surely achieve great things in the future.
However, as time went by, Wen Siyue not only broke through to the Foundation Establishment stage, but also came into contact with people and things at a higher level. She felt that she had been blind and too young back then.
Looking back now, it seems that I had excellent judgment back then, and I could tell at a glance that the other party was no ordinary person.
In comparison, I am who I am now...
For a moment, Wen Siyue's expression became increasingly complicated, and the atmosphere around her became quite strange.
Wen Xuanqi, in particular, knew the inside story back then, and his expression became increasingly strange at this moment.
Back then, Wen Siyue was extremely persistent with Xu Yun, and I even reported it to the family for them to decide. I never expected something like this to happen.
Wen Xuanqi lowered his eyes and remained silent. Not only the current Wen Siyue, but even the Wen Xuanqi of yesteryear had misjudged her.
Strictly speaking, it was he who created the current situation.
Even Wen Xuanqi felt a pang of regret at this moment. He had been too reckless back then. If he had been able to foresee this situation, he would never have reported it directly to the clan.
They would definitely try to find a way to completely sever ties with their family so that the family would find out.
When the time comes, Xu Yun will only need to investigate slightly to find out that he was the one who orchestrated everything back then. It's not a good thing to have made enemies of a fellow practitioner for no reason.
A Foundation Establishment cultivator would be treated with great respect even in the Muyun Chamber of Commerce or the Ruohe Wen family; they are by no means insignificant figures.
"It's no small matter that one of our Rank C Elders of the Twilight Cloud Merchant Guild has broken through to the Foundation Establishment stage, Miss. Guild Master, how should we handle this?"
A branch executive who was unaware of the inside story immediately spoke up, which was echoed by other executives, who all looked at Wen Xuanqi and Wen Siyue.
The breakthrough of a Rank C Venerable to the Foundation Establishment stage is no small matter within the Muyun Chamber of Commerce and must be treated with utmost seriousness.
"Phew... Guild Master Xuanqi, please come with me to pay a visit to that Fellow Daoist Xu... Xu."
Upon hearing this, Wen Siyue took a deep breath, barely suppressing the turmoil in her heart, and made a decision.
Whether her judgment is poor now or not as good as it was back then, Wen Siyue must try to win Xu Yun over now that he has broken through to the Foundation Establishment stage.
With the patriarch of the Ziyu Zhao family becoming the new president of the Muyun Chamber of Commerce, the other two Foundation Establishment families have encountered various forms of suppression.
In this situation, if they could win over a Foundation Establishment cultivator to join the Ruohe Wen family's camp, it would definitely alleviate a lot of pressure.
For the sake of her family, Wen Siyue disregarded her complicated and unspeakable feelings and immediately decided to bring Wen Xuanqi along to pay a visit to show the sincerity of the Ruohe Wen family.
"it is good."
With the eldest daughter of the Wen family speaking, Wen Xuanqi naturally agreed, after all, he had already clearly calculated the altruistic implications.
What does saving face matter? Besides, he wanted to find an opportunity to explain things properly to Xu Yun and avoid turning against each other.
Meanwhile, in Mofeng City.
Inside a cave.
Xu Yunduan sat in the main seat, his expression calm as he looked down at a middle-aged man below.
.
"Haha, Senior Xu, what happened before was just a misunderstanding. My Ziyu Zhao family has already found those selfish and despicable people who secretly sought personal gain and crippled their cultivation."
The middle-aged man was quite wealthy, with small eyes and a respectful smile on his face. He said with extreme humility, "The oppression you experienced for a period of time was due to those few people doing whatever they wanted. The family has already punished them severely. Please accept these gifts as a congratulatory gift for your achievement of Foundation Establishment."
As soon as he finished speaking, the middle-aged man took out several wooden boxes and jade bottles from his storage bag, stacked them all together, and respectfully handed them to Xu Yun.
Xu Yun looked at the other person with a meaningful smile on his face, and then said softly, "You can go now, Lingyu. Put these things away for me."
Ever since news of his breakthrough to the Foundation Establishment stage spread, it has stirred up some waves in Mofeng City. Cultivators have been coming to his cave dwelling from time to time to pay their respects or offer congratulatory gifts, all wanting to befriend him.
This even included members of the Ziyu Zhao family in Mofeng City. Back then, Xu Yun and several of his sworn friends suffered greatly from their oppression. Sure enough, after seeing him break through to the Foundation Establishment stage, they sent people to visit him, hoping to save him.
These items, though called congratulatory gifts, were actually apologies, made to compensate for the suppression of Xu Yun back then.
