Chapter 167: Chapter 139: The Pawn of the Descending Sect, Black Dragon Commerce Guild (5k mega chapter)
Wang Qingxuan hastily shook her head and said,
"No, senior, this is too valuable! I can\'t accept it!"
Su Xing simply pushed the storage ring into Wang Qingxuan\'s hand.
Two million was truly nothing to the current Su Xing.
What was more precious inside that storage ring was a bottle of low-grade Essence-Nourishing Pills, Organ Refining Pills, as well as a bag of Spirit Rice—those were the truly powerful items that could enhance one\'s strength!
"Junior sister, take these items... and remember, do not let anyone know I\'ve given these to you!"
Su Xing said earnestly.
After hearing this, Wang Qingxuan nodded obediently, her heart filled with emotion once again.
After comforting Wang Qingxuan, Su Xing sent her back to the dormitory, then made a call to Jin Congxue.
He asked her to help investigate the matter related to the Black Dragon Guild.
After all that, Su Xing stroked his chin and thought,
"Speaking of which, although Qingxuan almost fell astray before... she seems to be a good person."
"Yet in the future trajectory, she joined the Descending Sect. The huge change... it\'s probably stemming from this Black Dragon Guild incident!"
"Could it be that the Black Dragon Guild is connected to the Descending Sect?"
Su Xing fell into deep thought.
In any case, the Black Dragon Guild was no good at all, not even giving out bereavement payments when their professionals died.
Wang Qingxuan\'s future path of betraying the Human Race was definitely related to this incident...
"However, what exactly the connection is, let\'s wait and see!"
Thought Su Xing as he entered the Spirit Field Blessed Land, beginning another week of alchemy.
In a week, Su Xing skillfully produced six thousand elixirs and even found time to comfort Wang Qingxuan several times.
Until this day, Jin Congxue sent a message to Su Xing.
"The results of the investigation on the Black Dragon Guild you asked me to look into are in, and the situation is somewhat complicated... Also, this week\'s goods have arrived; let\'s meet at our usual spot!"
Looking at the text from Jin Congxue, Su Xing put away this week\'s produced elixirs and immediately rushed to the villa.
In the room, Su Xing saw Jin Congxue, who was carefully dressed up.
Today\'s Jin Congxue was going for a girlish style, wearing a blue printed camisole with a clean leather skirt, sexy yet pure.
"Tell me, what is going on with the Black Dragon Guild?"
Su Xing sat confidently at the table, wolfing down food while asking his question.
Jin Congxue looked somewhat serious and nodded before saying,
"According to my investigation, the Black Dragon Guild was established just over a decade ago, but it has grown from a small workshop with just a handful of people into one of the top ten guilds in Kyoto, with a membership exceeding ten thousand!"
"They even have Martial Emperor level powers residing within!"
"This made me even more curious, so I dug deeper and found the Black Dragon Guild is closely related to the Black Dragon Commerce Guild... to put it simply, the Black Dragon Commerce Guild is essentially the Black Dragon Guild\'s glove, specifically helping to launder money, as well as to purchase precious items and equipment from the market!"
Pausing briefly, Jin Congxue continued,
"And the Black Dragon Guild, in order to expand, has stopped at nothing!"
"In these past few years, just the death rate of their professionals going into instance dungeons has exceeded thirty percent! Thousands of professionals above the silver level have died or disappeared without any explanation."
"And the families of those professionals who die on missions have never been given any bereavement payments. There was a big fuss about it, but given the Black Dragon Guild\'s significant connections, in the end, nothing came of it."
Su Xing nodded slightly after listening, which aligned with his previous conjecture.
Jin Congxue, now wearing a smirk, looked at Su Xing and asked,
"Are you asking about this because of your junior sister?"
Caught off guard, Su Xing blurted out, "How did you know?"
Rolling her eyes, Jin Congxue replied,
"You didn\'t hide this matter, so it was easy to check!"
"Besides, as for your ambiguous relationship with that Wang Qingxuan... didn\'t you think I wouldn\'t know?"
Jin Congxue rolled her eyes teasingly.
Su Xing felt his face heat up in embarrassment, getting caught red-handed—this was too socially awkward.
Seeing Su Xing staying silent, Jin Congxue brought up the main topic,
"That little girl Wang Qingxuan is indeed pitiful. I heard her parents died on an instance dungeon mission, and not just her parents. Of the 120 professionals who participated in that mission, none survived, all died!"
"And the bereavement funds were not issued… I also heard that little girl Wang Qingxuan got threatened when she went to claim the bereavement funds."
Su Xing frowned slightly and questioned,
"Threatened?"
Jin Congxue nodded slightly and added,
"Yes! A young woman alone without an ugly face, bereft of economic support... that person in charge said that if she wanted the bereavement money, she would have to submit to him!"
Su Xing felt a surge of exasperation. This was outright extortion for money and sex!
This Black Dragon Commerce Guild was indeed no good!
Jin Congxue then handed all the detailed information she had investigated to Su Xing.
Later, Jin Congxue started talking about the serious matters.
"I\'ve told you everything I know about the Black Dragon Commerce Guild... Oh right, here are the goods for this week!"
"As for the herbs you asked me to find last time, they\'ve been located. You\'ll have them in as little as seven days, or half a month at most!"
Su Xing nodded slightly and gave her the new week\'s batch of elixirs.
After some pleasantries, Su Xing returned to the school and once again entered the Spirit Field Blessed Land.
