Chapter 1044: Do Think Twice!

“I know you’re not worried, but this still needs to be solved. Otherwise, the situation will get complicated if they intervene.”

Except for the Globe Merchant Group, who had met its downfall, and the Ethereal Merchant Group, who had a close relationship with Bai Xiaofei, the remaining seven major merchant groups had come to Cloudveil. Facing the pressure from them, Fang Ye couldn’t remain calm.

Unlike the Cloudveil Empire with a flawed system, all these merchant groups were a handful to deal with even without abundant resources backing them up. One careless mistake and Bai Xiaofei’s group would create themselves an extremely formidable enemy!

Moreover, as far as the present situation was concerned, the seven merchant groups must have already prepared an excuse for their emergence that would put Illusion Demon in the wrong. According to the Business Agreement, it was explicitly prohibited for merchant groups to intervene in the internal disputes of a nation!

Those seven merchant groups had long been waiting for Illusion Demon to make mistakes. While the remaining eight major merchant groups had hugely benefited from the collapse of the Globe Merchant Group, the rapid development of the Illusion Demon Merchant Group had threatened them. Absolutely no one wanted to spit out the benefits that they had eaten.

Therefore, they came to Cloudveil… with the idea of completely destroying Illusion Demon!

“Don’t worry, I’ll make them speechless,” Bai Xiaofei said and headed out.

Fang Ye hurriedly followed him, not wanting to miss an excellent show.

The two walked all the way to the main hall. As soon as Bai Xiaofei appeared, the room full of people immediately had their gazes on him.

To the outside world, Fang Ye had always claimed to be the acting president of Illusion Demon, so everyone had been curious about the real president. When they saw that it was Bai Xiaofei, they were visibly surprised – because of his age and identity!

“A hero from young! Who could have thought that the one behind the rising Illusion Demon is the famous new graduate of Starnet? As expected of the miracle generation, you’ve really opened this old man’s eyes!” exclaimed an old man white hair and white beard as soon as Bai Xiaofei sat down. From the old man’s amiable appearance, one wouldn’t think that he was here to make it hard on Bai Xiaofei.

“Devpath Merchant Group, Elder Han, senior alchemist,” Fang Ye informed softly behind Bai Xiaofei.

“You are too kind, Elder Han. We are but a group of children, and Illusion Demon is just getting started. How can it deserve your attention?” Regarding superficial courtesies, Bai Xiaofei was professional.

“Intervening in a nation’s major affair when you’re just getting started? I’m afraid that when you are all developed, you would even dare to start a war!” a sarcastic voice rang out before Elder Han could speak. Looking over, it was a chubby man.

“Multihouse Business, Zhang Yekun, president of the Northern Branch,” informed Fang Ye with a hint of hostility in his voice. When Illusion Demon had started to open up its northern market, Zhang Yekun hadn’t missed a single opportunity to hinder them.

“Are you here to condemn us, President Zhang? But I’m afraid we can’t afford to shoulder your blame. We accepted someone’s payment and so we are here to eliminate their problem. For us, this is just a business deal,” said Bai Xiaofei.
