Chapter 1006: Chapter 714: The Sword Cultivator’s Venomous Wife

Shen Xuan did not rashly use Divine Sense to probe.

Liang Shixing was at the Golden Core Middle Stage, a small Realm higher than him on the surface.

Moreover, between the cockpit and the cabin, there was a Tier Three Upper Grade isolation restriction set up.

Without a special Token, Divine Sense does not enter, sound does not transmit.

Shen Xuan’s eyes slightly shifted, looking towards Lady Hu nearby.

Lady Hu got the message, quietly transmitting sound.

A brief recapitulation of the conversation inside the restriction between Liang Shixing, Tian Haoran, and Qin Shiya.

Liang Shixing was extremely displeased with the temporary price increase of the Moonrise Sect patrol ship, his words contained hidden anger.

However, after weighing the situation, he was helpless and could only pinch his nose to accept.

The increased Spirit Stone fee was, in principle, to be extracted as much as possible from the passengers.

If passengers couldn’t come up with enough at the moment, the Commerce Alliance could "temporarily advance the payment," but at the cost of signing a high-interest collateral Spirit Contract.

However, Liang Shixing particularly emphasized one point: "Pill Master Shen is a esteemed guest of our alliance, it’s unwise to offend him too much. Treat him the same as other Core Formation Cultivators, just add fifty thousand, no further additions."

Tian Haoran and Qin Shiya had no objections to this, and the three quickly reached a consensus.

"Hmm, still somewhat considerate."

Shen Xuan coldly laughed in his heart.

This Fortune Sea Commerce Alliance does well with its surface appearances.

Knowing he was a valued guest, the captain personally negotiated.

The negotiation resolved, Tian Haoran exited the cockpit, moved to the center of the cabin, activated his Magical Power, and announced the decisions made during the emergency consultations.

The cabin instantly erupted!

"What? More charges! We emptied our Spirit Stones when we boarded the ship!"

"Senior Tian! Please negotiate again, we really can’t pay more!"

"We trusted the Fortune Sea Commerce Alliance’s reputation to spend all we had on this ticket! How can you exploit us like this repeatedly?"

The waves of complaints, pleas, and anger almost overturned the cabin.

Many cultivators’ faces turned ashen, their eyes full of rage.

"Enough! Everyone shut up!"

Tian Haoran angrily roared, the True Pill-level pressure spread out vehemently, arresting everyone’s breath.

"This is unexpected, not my alliance’s wish! If any is unwilling, get off now, your fare will be refunded in full! Life and death at your own risk!"

With this statement, the cabin fell dead silent.

Get off? In this perilous wilderness at the border?

No different from courting death!

Everyone looked at each other, dare not speak their grievances.

Seeing this, Shen Xuan stepped forward, walking slowly to Tian Haoran, expression calm, retrieving a Spirit Stone Bag from his bosom.

Under everyone’s gaze, he leisurely counted out five Upper Grade Spirit Stones, placing them in the Jade Plate held by the guard beside Tian Haoran.

"Shen’s share."

The voice was calm, clearly reaching everyone’s ears.

As the most distinguished, strongest passenger, he also willingly paid.

This was a strong signal.

Following him, Lady Hu silently took out ten Upper Grade Spirit Stones.

With them leading, the rest of the passengers, regardless of inner curses, had no choice but to resign themselves.

Some gritted their teeth pulling out their meager remaining savings, some helplessly using their Magical Treasures, rare materials as collateral, signing high-interest Spirit Contract debt notes.

Such an open extortion, extremely smooth.

In a short time, nearly two million Spirit Stones piled onto the Jade Plate.

Young Master Zhao glanced at the pile of Spirit Stones with the corner of his eye, a trace of smug satisfaction unable to help but flit across his face.

Shen Xuan took all these subtle expressions in, shook his head, turned and directly returned to his first-class quiet chamber.

"This Fortune Sea Commerce Alliance, though strong in power, such actions damage its reputation."

He closed the door, set up a restriction, pondering in his mind.

Thankfully, this was a secretive route, the impact controllable.

"Just don’t know what role Liang Shixing, Tian Haoran and others played in this? Was it out of helplessness, or was there already a collusion with Young Master Zhao and the Moonrise Sect patrol ship?"

He leaned more towards the latter.

Compared to a Sect, an alliance stands less on principle, more on profit.

This coincidence seemed overly contrived.

"Hopefully, this is the end of it. These passengers are mostly drained. Push further, there’s a risk of cornered dogs jumping over walls leading to internal strife."

Fortunately, Young Master Zhao and others seemed to know when to stop.

Once the Spirit Stones were obtained, they did not provoke further incidents.

Soon after, slight vibrations came from outside the spaceship.

Through the porthole, they saw the Moonrise Sect battleship slowly moving away, opening up a passage.

The Fortune Sea Commerce Alliance spaceship lifted off again, Spiritual Light shining, accelerating away from this air space.

That night, Shen Xuan was adjusting his breath.

Suddenly, someone transmitted sound.

"Pill Master Shen, are you there?"
