Chapter 426 The Ubiquitous Alliance of Loose Cultivators

late at night.

The main streets of Hongdao Port are still brightly lit.

In the world of martial arts, there is no such thing as a curfew; many shops never close.

Ye Kang walked silently down the street until he saw a sign.

Linglong Chamber of Commerce branch.

Sure enough, Hongdao is a major mining island and controls a vital sea route, so the Linglong Chamber of Commerce must have a shop there.

Ye Kang had contacted the Linglong Chamber of Commerce several times and trusted them.

He strode into the shop, and several martial arts practitioners in uniforms immediately came to greet him.

"Sir, are you here to buy or sell something?"

The speaker was a refined-looking man. Ye Kang casually asked, "Do you have any intelligence here?"

The refined-looking man narrowed his eyes and extended his right hand: "The Linglong Chamber of Commerce can buy and sell anything, including intelligence. However, intelligence trading is a high-end business and is only open to our distinguished members."

"Take a step to speak."

Ye Kang spoke in a flat tone.

The refined man was not aggressive at all, clearly a seasoned businessman, and directly made a respectful gesture: "Of course, follow me."

It was still the second floor, unique to the Linglong Chamber of Commerce, with a huge space including several individual trading rooms.

As businesspeople, they have taken this line of work to the extreme, completely considering the privacy of their customers and showing no impatience whatsoever.

Ye Kang followed the refined-looking man into a room.

The door closed, and the refined man smiled and said, "As you can say, you can completely trust the Linglong Chamber of Commerce's trading room. No one else will know about our conversation."

"I believe."

After saying that, Ye Kang handed over his membership jade token.

The refined-looking man scanned the area with his senses and immediately looked puzzled.

"The guest's identity seems to be..."

Ye Kang no longer concealed himself, revealing a wisp of his aura, and the jade tablet lit up automatically.

The refined-looking man immediately nodded knowingly: "Understood. As a distinguished member, what information does the guest want?"

"I've heard that someone hired an assassin to kill the head of the Chu family. Is that true?"

The refined-looking man smiled faintly: "If you just want to know this, you can easily find out from any well-informed young master outside. Why waste your money coming here?"

After saying that, he took a sip of tea, certain that Ye Kang had more to say.

"Sir, you are truly remarkable. I will speak frankly then: Is the assassin from the Kuanglan Society? Is the head of the Chu family dead?"

The refined-looking man shook his head: "They were indeed assassins from the Kuanglan Society, but they didn't succeed. At least, Chu Dayou's body wasn't found, so the Kuanglan Society's mission isn't complete."

"So, the Storm will come again?"

"According to the rules of the Raging Waves Society, once a mission is accepted, it must be completed."

How can I find the next killer?

"Find Chu Dayou before others do."

After finishing his tea, the refined-looking man stared intently at Ye Kang.

He found Ye Kang interesting. Others would avoid the Kuanglan Society like the plague, but this guy actually wanted to approach them.

Ye Kang was also looking at him and found him interesting.

"Sir, your intelligence is far too readily available. Aren't you afraid that Kuanglan will retaliate?"

The refined-looking man smiled slightly: "Since you dare to ask, you must know the strength of the Linglong Chamber of Commerce. We only need to handle the transaction and pay the money. If anyone retaliates, you don't need to worry about us."

Ye Kang raised an eyebrow, thinking, "Good heavens, what an arrogant tone."

It seems that the Linglong Chamber of Commerce is the real monster.

He nodded and asked, "So, where is Chu Dayou?"

This time, the refined man truly shook his head: "I don't know. Selling information doesn't mean I know everything. But I can tell you that at least six people have asked me the same question. If you want to find him, you'd better hurry."

Having said that, he stood up and extended his right hand: "The information from earlier is worth 30,000 spirit crystals. What do you think?"

"So expensive!"

"You flatter me, esteemed guest. This price is already fair and reasonable. If I truly knew Chu Dayou's whereabouts, and considering the overall value of the information, you would have to give me 200,000 spirit crystals."

Seeing the other person's squinting eyes, Ye Kang's lips twitched involuntarily.

The intelligence business is really lucrative.

Why don't you start your own intelligence agency?

However, without the backing of the Linglong Chamber of Commerce, they would probably suffer a terrible fate.

Ye Kang gave the spirit crystal and left the branch shop.

At least one thing is certain: the assassins from the Kuanglan Society will come again, or rather, they have already come.

As long as I find Chu Dayou, I can lure the snake out of its hole.

His gaze was resolute, and he was even prepared to use the Annihilation Immortal Ring to fight the assassin to the death.

After all, he needed to know who wanted to kill him.

As soon as he stepped out the door, a presence suddenly locked onto him.

Ye Kang was completely bewildered. What was going on? His thoughts were coming true?

He was secretly delighted and deliberately turned into the dimly lit alley. Soon, the aura approached.

"stop!"

Upon hearing this, Ye Kang immediately turned around and saw a man carrying a long sword walking out from around the corner.

He was tall and thin, with a dark complexion, and his cultivation level was comparable to mine; he was also a Nine-Leaf cultivator.

No wonder they dared to follow me.

Ye Kang smiled and asked, "What is it?"

The man with the longsword had a resolute expression. He took a step forward and asked, "Are you a rogue cultivator?"

"?"

Ye Kang was now completely baffled. This guy had followed him just to ask this question?

The man with the longsword seemed to realize that he had been abrupt, and immediately cupped his hands and said, "Please don't misunderstand, sir. I have no ill intentions. I just want to confirm your identity."

"He is indeed a rogue cultivator." Ye Kang nodded.

The man immediately beamed: "You just arrived in Hongdao today, right!"

"How did you find out?"

"Because I've been here for many days, I can confirm that there was no one like you on the island before!"

"You're using human surveillance!"

Ye Kang was startled. Good heavens, what kind of quirk does this guy have that he can remember everyone on the entire island?

"Don't misunderstand, sir. Your cultivation level is the same as mine. Among the Nine-Leaf experts on the island, you are the newest, which is why I came to find you. I am also a rogue cultivator named Gao Bucong!"

"Hello."

Ye Kang found it amusing; this guy looked so stupid, he didn't seem like an assassin at all.

Gao Bucong excitedly asked, "Are you a member of the Loose Cultivator Alliance?!"

"Why is it this question again..."

Xu Xun had asked the same question during the day.

and many more!

The two might be related!

Ye Kang asked in confusion, "How did you know?"

Gao Bucong immediately beamed with excitement: "Brother! I've finally found a kindred spirit! Who introduced you to the alliance?"

"Introducer for joining the alliance..."

Ye Kang's lips twitched; he had no idea about any matchmaker.

If I had to pick the only person I recognized, there would only be one left.

"His name is Helian Yingjie, do you know him?"

"what!"

Gao Bucong's mouth gaped open, and a hint of sourness appeared on his face.

"My apologies. I never expected that the person who introduced you to the alliance would be Helian Yingjie, Helian Yingxiong's younger brother."

His expression was visibly dejected, and perhaps even a little envious.
