After Xu Tian’s power increased greatly, Ye Feng took him out of the training room and began teaching him various killing moves.
To Xu Tian, he became more proficient with thunder.
So, Ye Feng let him focus on mastering the Thunder Blade and Thunder Summoning Spell, making him even more skilled and powerful in combat.
Under Ye Feng’s guidance, Xu Tian quickly mastered thunder, handling the Thunder Blade and Thunder Summoning Spell with ease.
While Xu Tian was overwhelmed with gratitude, Ye Feng noticed that Nameless and Ye Qian’s abilities had also improved.
Ye Qian reached the perfection of the second layer of Qi Cultivation, and Nameless reached the peak of the middle stage of the second layer, proving that denser Spiritual Qi yields better cultivation results.
If they were to cultivate in the training room, think of how much more they’d achieve?
However, the training room belonged to Ye Feng, and they shouldn’t even consider it.
At the same time, Ye Feng fully activated the array.
Once the array was fully activated, clouds rose up, enveloping Villa No. 1.
If outsiders entered the array’s range, they’d be confused by the clouds and never find a way out.
Of course, those marked by Ye Feng wouldn’t be affected at all.
Nameless, Xu Tian, Ye Qian, Xu Kun, and Liu Xue were all marked by Ye Feng, so they wouldn’t be affected.
With such measures, Ye Feng had no worries.
Indeed, with this array, even a Martial Venerable couldn’t break through.
Meanwhile, today was Liu Xue’s store opening day.
Today, Fengxue Jewelry’s six stores opened simultaneously. Liu Xue had prepared for this day for a long time.
To boost sales, there had been extensive promotional work beforehand, and Liu Xue had expected a full house today.
But after opening the stores, Liu Xue found something amiss.
"How is it on your side?" So, Liu Xue hurriedly asked about other stores’ conditions.
"President Liu, it’s not ideal; we had less than ten customers."
"Same here, not many people, which is a bit illogical...."
After hearing others’ reports, Liu Xue furrowed her brow, realizing the severity of the situation.
According to her plan and the amount of promotion, today should have been extremely busy.
But the outcome was unexpected.
Liu Xue frowned as she left the store, only to discover a jewelry shop on both sides, both holding grand opening events with promotions far surpassing Fengxue Jewelry.
"Brother! We’re an established jewelry store, unlike them with no guarantees, plus we offer gifts as soon as you enter."
"Right! Brother, don’t miss out; our promotions are huge today."
Moreover, people from those shops openly poached customers at the door, pulling them directly into their stores as they were about to enter Fengxue Jewelry.
"Brother, take a look on our side; we’re a large jewelry chain with brand assurance."
"Our company is well-known in the Six Central Provinces, unlike theirs. I suspect they sell fake products, so beware!"
These two stores, each more shameless and vicious than the other.
Upon careful inspection, Liu Xue found the tricks within.
One store was owned by the Liu Group, while the other was under Master Fatty; Liu Xue’s Fengxue Jewelry was directly caught in the middle.
"Hey! Go outside quickly and check if new jewelry stores have opened on both sides. Send pictures to me." Liu Xue suppressed her anger and inquired in the work group.
"President Liu, indeed, they are shameless, blatantly na grabbing our customers at the door."
"President Liu, I feel like hitting someone. They’re too sleazy."
With angry reports from each store manager, the situation at Liu Xue’s location was indeed the same; she was being targeted by these two stores.
"Arrange for staff to escort our customers inside." Liu Xue coldly signaled, beginning to organize the headquarters’ efforts.
Under Liu Xue’s arrangement, Fengxue Jewelry began sending staff out to grab customers, and Liu Xue even revised the discount strategies.
"President Liu, is this okay? We won’t make any profit this way!" Seeing Liu Xue’s revised plan, Fengxue’s higher-ups frowned, reminding her.
"Given the current situation, with opponents pressing on step by step, there’s no choice." Liu Xue smiled wryly.
Indeed, if Liu Xue didn’t adjust, the Liu Family and Master Fatty would surely make survival impossible for her.
Because Liu Xue knew very well, to them, profit was secondary; stopping Fengxue’s development was their main goal.
However, even so, Liu Xue was not worried because she got jadeite at a low cost, allowing her to profit even if ordinary people couldn’t.
So, if the others wanted to exhaust her, Liu Xue wasn’t afraid; she could even drag the other two into bankruptcy.
Indeed, Liu Xue possessed jadeite resources worth thirty billion, as well as plenty of top-grade jadeite, which the other two couldn’t compare to.
Just that piece of Top Grade Emperor Green jade inevitably left the Liu Family and Master Fatty in the dust.
Moreover, that was only the start. Liu Xue’s plans weren’t that simple; soon, the Liu Family and Master Fatty would see her true power.
At that moment, noisy commotion erupted outside.
"What’s happening?" Hearing the sound, Liu Xue frowned and rushed out.
Seeing something amiss, the staff inside all hurried out.
Upon stepping outside, Liu Xue found that her store’s employees were being pursued and beaten by workers from the two neighboring stores.
These two had seemingly coordinated, targeting only Fengxue’s staff.
"What are you doing? Stop it right now." At this sight, Liu Xue was instantly furious.
"Boss, they’re stealing our customers; they’re being unreasonable." Battered employees, feeling wronged, almost cried.
"Don’t falsely accuse us; it was clearly you snatching people and then flipping the story."
"Yeah, don’t think we’re pushovers; mind your nonsense, or I’ll strike you down." The other side sneered, contemptuously glaring.
"President Liu, you have to back us up!" Employees pleaded, feeling wronged.
Seeing their injuries, Liu Xue felt immense anger inside.
"Fine! Excellent, you really think we’re pushovers, right?" In her anger, Liu Xue coldly erupted.
Liu Xue’s strong aura momentarily intimidated the other two’s staff, causing them to back off a few steps.
"Ha! How imposing, just a mere traitor of the Liu Family, when did you become so arrogant? It’s utterly laughable." Just then, a cold, disdainful voice rang out.
At the same time, Liu Qingsong, with his Liu Family juniors, looked down at Liu Xue with disdain, exuding utter authority....
