My Master Only Breaks Through on the Edge of Death

"Why not depend on the Human Clan?" Xu Fan asked curiously.

"It's the rule of our ancestors, the Iron-Eating Beast Clan will never be slaves,"

"Even when faced with the rise of the Golden Winged Ric, we never compromised," said Hei Tuan.

Xu Fan always felt like he had heard the phrase "Iron-Eating Beasts will never be slaves" somewhere before.

"So our coming here this time serves two purposes. First, it's out of respect for the dominant position of the Human Clan, and second, it's to make our Iron-Eating Beast Clan's stance clear," Hei Tuan said firmly.

"Sounds good, but I have a condition."

"I hope you can send 100 Iron-Eating Beasts to our sect to become disciples," Xu Fan said with a smile.

After the Dragon and Tiger Banquet was held, the entire Hidden Spirit Sect gradually became known in the Cultivation World.

Elders, Peak Masters, Inner Sect disciples, Outer Sect disciples, and the Demon Division.

The structure is simpler than any sect in the Cultivation World.

"Would these disciples be considered Inner Sect disciples?" Hei Tuan hesitated.

If he was just asked to join the Demon Division, he would definitely not agree.

But if they were truly to become Inner Sect disciples, he was actually quite tempted.

"They'll be treated as Inner Sect disciples," Xu Fan nodded.

"Supreme One, why do you treat our clan so well?" Hei Tuan asked, both puzzled and grateful.

"Maybe I feel close to you guys, I've been to the Demon World before and I've seen your Iron-Eating Beast Clan."

"I don't know why, but seeing your clan brings up my homesickness; your Iron-Eating Beast Clan is naturally kind-hearted, grateful, and has an unyielding will that I admire."

"So I promise that once the outstanding members of your clan come, I will give them Inner Sect treatment," Xu Fan guaranteed.

He looked at Hei Tuan's black and white fur, especially the shiny coat and adorable expression, and couldn't help wanting to give him a pat.

"Human Supreme, I can't make a decision on this matter. I need to go back to our territory and discuss it with the elders," Hei Tuan thought for a moment and said.

"Go on, what I've said will always be valid."

"I will later send a message to the top sects and holy lands in the Cultivation World and the Elders Association, vouching for your clan's neutrality for all eternity."

As Xu Fan spoke these words, he directly communicated with the Will of Heaven.

It seemed like he was not only speaking to those forces, but also to the Will of Heaven itself.

Hearing Xu Fan's words, Hei Tuan became excited.

He bowed deeply to Xu Fan, expressing his gratitude for vouching for the Iron-Eating Beast Clan.

At this time, Xu Yuexian brought the already brewed Fairy Spirit Tea.

"Have some tea, and tell me more about your clan," Xu Fan seemed very interested in the Iron-Eating Beast Clan.

A huge bear paw picked up the small teacup and poured the tea into its mouth, like a bull chewing on peonies.

So delicious, but not enough.

"Great Elder, our clan originates from the higher realm..." Hei Tuan drank tea and talked about the history of the Iron-Eating Beast Clan.

The two talked for a long time, one human and one bear.

"Master, is there anything special about the Iron-Eating Beast Clan?" Xu Yuexian asked curiously after Hei Tuan left.

"In my hometown, we also have Iron-Eating Beasts. However, in our country, they are called pandas and are a national treasure."

"Back then, everyone in our country dreamed of raising a panda," Xu Fan said with a nostalgic tone.

"I see," Xu Yuexian nodded, finally understanding why Xu Fan felt so close to the Iron-Eating Beast Clan.

"Master, the people who went to the South Mountain World have returned," Pu Tao's voice sounded.

"Send Pang Fu over," Xu Fan said.

A small teleportation array appeared, and Pang Fu came out.

"Great Elder, the mission to the South Mountain World was successfully completed. We have secured long-term supply cooperation for several kinds of spiritual mines and medicines with the Qing Xuan Sect."

"The annual net profit, converted into Fairy Jade, is about 8,000," Pang Fu said excitedly. To think that just one year's profit was the result of more than a decade of hard work.

"Not bad, you have 1,000 years to develop the South Mountain World market at will."

"At that time, I will take you to an even broader stage," Xu Fan said.

"A thousand years is enough, I am confident in entering the Immortal Path through commerce," Pang Fu said confidently, as if he had already grasped a winning hand.

"Then go ahead," Xu Fan laughed.

The Department Head of Commerce was the most worry-free one for him.

"Great Elder, I'll go prepare the goods for trading."

Just as Pang Fu was about to leave, he suddenly remembered something.

"Great Elder, should we create a joint Chamber of Commerce platform to host cross-world transactions and make full use of our advantages in the Cultivation World?"

Hearing this, Xu Fan suddenly remembered the first time he met Pang Fu.

It was a pity that fate had been cruel. Just as he had ambitious plans to build a platform for his sect, the entire sect was destroyed by the Demon Clan not long after.

The newly built platform was destroyed, and after arriving in the Central Continent, he had no local connections or backing. His newly established small Chamber of Commerce struggled to survive under the pressure of larger Chambers of Commerce.

It wasn't until he met Xu Fan that things got better, but the ambition of those years has been buried in his heart ever since.

"Go ahead and do it boldly; the sect will always be your strongest backing," Xu Fan said with a smile.

"Great Elder, I understand!"

Pang Fu left after saying these words.

"Really, just trading alone can't make much profit; taking a cut from the platform is where the real money is," Xu Fan looked at Pang Fu's retreating figure and laughed.

He knew that Pang Fu had never forgotten what Xu Fan had said to him in those earlier years, and it had always been buried in his heart unseen.

As expected, it wasn't long before dozens of the most powerful Chambers of Commerce in the Cultivation World received notifications.

An invitation from the Hidden Spirit Sect Trade Association.

On the day of the gathering, all the Chambers of Commerce representatives entered with puzzled expressions.

Three days later, all the representatives left with conflicted expressions, both excited and somewhat helpless.

From then on, the name Pang Fu circulated throughout the Cultivation World's Chamber of Commerce circles.

"Great Elder, all the strong Chambers of Commerce in the Cultivation World have joined the platform, and the rest is just waiting for the smaller ones to come and join," Peng Fu reported.

"I heard that your nickname in the Cultivation World Chambers of Commerce is now Pang Skin-Peeler, how much are you taking from them?" Xu Fan laughed.

"Thirty percent of the transaction amount, which is considered a welfare for those large Chambers of Commerce."

"In the future, all the small Chambers of Commerce that join us will give forty percent," Peng Fu said with a smile.

"Will they still be able to make any profit, taking forty percent of the transaction amount?"

Xu Fan suddenly felt this scene was very familiar.

"Great Elder, I've calculated that this is more profitable than doing business in the Cultivation World."

"Cross-world transactions are a monopoly of our sect, so naturally, we have to charge monopoly prices," Pang Fu said as if it made perfect sense.

Sometimes, the competition between Chambers of Commerce is even more brutal than in the Cultivation World.

Pang Fu felt that he was already very compassionate by not taking half of the profits.

He considered it a welfare for his fellow Chambers of Commerce in the Cultivation World.
