Chapter 20: The Chamber of Commerce
System - Welcoming a Guest Membe
Nanfeng City, Kyushu Chamber of Commerce.
Su Xing'er had also received news about the Jinshan Prefecture ruins, but she chose not to
participate. A True Martial Realm inheritance wasn't worth her time. She could spend that
time cultivating at home.
What she was concerned about was how the Kyushu Chamber of Commerce would seek
benefits in this grand event. After all, they were likely to attract a considerable number of
people.
However, just at that moment, a voice resounded in her mind.
[Ding, a qualified individual has been found. Binding process for the God Level Chamber of
Commerce System is underway. Binding successful.]
"Who?" Su Xing'er's vigilance was sharp as she shouted towards her surroundings.
[Host, I am the God Level Chamber of Commerce System, aspiring to help the host establish
the mightiest chamber of commerce. You currently have a Newcomer's Grand Gift Package,
which has been stored in the system warehouse,] the system's voice returned.
"Miss."
Su Xing'er's voice brought in the elderly women, Jin Yin and Jin Er.
"No need to worry. You can go for now," Su Xing'er said casually.
She had come to understand that this so-called system probably meant no harm and might
even be a stroke of fortune.
The two exchanged glances and exited. Even though they had heard the conversation, if their
miss said so, they had no choice but to comply.
"System, tell me about your functions," Su Xing'er adjusted well to the concept of the
system's existence.
[I can help the host create the most formidable chamber of commerce and become the
wealthiest individual in the world,] the system's words were concise but its power was
undeniable.
"Open the Newcomer's Grand Gift Package."
[Congratulations, host, for acquiring the Power of Attributes.]
Upon opening the package, Su Xing'er found only one attribute power.
She was somewhat bewildered. Was this so-called Newcomer's Grand Gift Package merely
an attribute power? However, her bewilderment turned into astonishment as she read the
explanation the system provided for the attribute power.
Su Xing'er's reaction was akin to saying, "Amazing."
[Name: Power of Attributes
Description: Within the chamber of commerce bound by the host, the Power of Attributes
bestows immense strength. The host's power will always be a step higher than the strongest
cultivator within the chamber of commerce. This applies as long as it's within the Kyushu
Chamber of Commerce.
Note: Kyushu Chamber of Commerce is already automatically bound.]
"What?"
Su Xing'er exclaimed. This was essentially an invincible leap! In the next moment, her
cultivation surged, and she found herself at the Mid-Profound Origin Realm.
The current strongest within the chamber of commerce was the Scarlet Peach Fairy Li
Mochou, at the Mid-True Martial Realm. One rank higher than her was the Mid-Profound
Origin Realm.
However, Su Xing'er understood that this had its limitations. Once she stepped out of the
Kyushu Chamber of Commerce's boundaries, she would return to being just a Mid-Profound
Martial Realm cultivator.
Su Xing'er adapted to the newfound strength within her body.
"Miss, a third-grade alchemist is waiting outside. It might be a good opportunity. We could
potentially enlist him for the chamber of commerce," Shen Wansan stood at the door,
speaking respectfully.
Hearing Shen Wansan's voice and knowing that he could garner his respect, it was clear that
this person had extraordinary qualities. Seeing him wouldn't hurt.
"Have him wait in the guest reception room; I'll be there shortly," Su Xing'er responded.
She closed the account books on her desk, tidied herself up, and left the room.
In the guest reception room:
"You really want to do this, Master?"
Chu Nan asked curiously. He felt his master was unreliable. From Pingnan City to Nanfeng
City, he had been indecisive, even after completing a transaction. And now he was asking
him to join the Kyushu Chamber of Commerce as a guest member. It all seemed unreliable.
"What do you know, you brat? You can trust your master's words. Could I be trying to harm
you?" Xuan Qingzi replied irritably.
"Later, the higher-ups from the Kyushu Chamber of Commerce will come to see you. At least
pretend to be proactive. After all, you're a Fourth-Grade alchemist. Don't embarrass your
master!" Xuan Qingzi fell silent after speaking. He had already sensed that someone was
approaching.
Chu Nan saw a young girl entering and quickly stood up.
"You want to meet me?"
Su Xing'er entered directly and spoke candidly. A Third-Grade alchemist was nothing much.
While it might hold allure for other powers, the Su family had numerous Fourth-Grade
alchemists, let alone Third-Grade ones. However, she couldn't help but be impressed by this
youth's talent. He was nearly on par with a senior member of her family.
"Yes, I'd like to become a guest member of the Kyushu Chamber of Commerce. When
necessary, I can lend a hand to the chamber of commerce," Chu Nan also spoke directly.
However, he wasn't looking to join; rather, he wanted to become a guest member.
"What makes you think you can become a guest member of the Kyushu Chamber of
Commerce?" Su Xing'er wasn't annoyed by Chu Nan's words; instead, she countered
immediately.
The implication was, if you want to be a guest member of the Kyushu Chamber of
Commerce, what do you have to offer?
"I am a Fourth-Grade Junior Alchemist, possessing the cultivation of the Early Earth Martial
Realm. I am seventeen years old this year," Chu Nan spoke directly, his face carrying a trace
of confidence. He had hidden his true strength earlier, but even so, his achievements were
already remarkable in the vicinity of the Azure Cloud Kingdom.
"Your cultivation might be decent here, but in the eyes of those major powers, you're just a
clown jumping around," Su Xing'er said, revealing her Mid-Profound Origin Realm
cultivation.
She believed this cultivation would be enough to subdue him. As for why she was doing this,
she could only blame the task the system had just issued.
[Ding, a temporary task has been issued: Create a connection between the Child of Fortune,
Chu Nan, and the Kyushu Chamber of Commerce. The deeper the connection, the richer the
rewards. The task reward is unknown; failure results in no punishment.]
The breathe flashed briefly, but it left Chu Nan in shock.
This cultivation was already comparable to the strength of the older generation.
However, this also filled him with a strong sense of frustration. Despite being of similar age,
they were separated by three major realms. Even the presence of Xuan Qingzi, residing in
Chu Nan's mind, was astounded. The methods of the system were unfathomable, not even
discernible by a Holy Realm expert.
Nonetheless, he grew more convinced of his speculation. The young lady before him hailed
from a prestigious family, and her status was likely elevated.
"I agree to your conditions." Su Xing'er chose the opportune moment to address Chu Nan.
"You agree?" Chu Nan was taken aback, thinking he had failed, but to his surprise, she had
agreed.
"From now on, you are a guest member of the Kyushu Chamber of Commerce. You will
enjoy the benefits the chamber of commerce offers, and if your performance is satisfactory, I
will arrange for our family alchemists to guide you," Su Xing'er didn't hesitate to paint a rosy
picture.
"Alright, I accept. Today, I can start alchemy for the chamber of commerce," Chu Nan
already regarded Su Xing'er as a young lady from an esteemed family. The alchemists she
referred to might even surpass his master, and more importantly, interacting with them would
accelerate his master's recovery and his own growth.
After all, no matter how much of a genius he was, without growth, he would never truly
control his destiny.
