Gu Jinyuan was also shocked by Ye Jiushang's appearance. He did not know much about this mysterious Ninth Imperial Uncle, who always came and went without a trace. He went on full alert.
One had to be wary of a person who could treat the inner hall of the Heavenly Treasure Trading Company as his backyard. If Ye Jiushang had not revealed himself, he would not have noticed him at all. It was obvious that his strength was way above his.
If the Nanling Empire had such a powerful Ninth Imperial Uncle, it would have long become a magnificent country in the Tongxuan Continent. But it was the lowest-ranking country on the continent. It could be destroyed by the surrounding great countries at any time.
Unless this Ninth Imperial Uncle did not care about the survival of the Nanling Empire at all.
