Chapter 0319: The Eight Stalwarts of Wanjie Commerce
Upon hearing Wan Xiaolan's analysis, Qi Tian revealed a troubled expression. He had anticipated that Wan Xiaolan might demand the Locust Thief Bees from him. When he had decided to employ them, he had already foreseen this outcome; it did not seem abrupt. He had enough mental preparation. However, two main concerns troubled him. One was Wan Xiaolan taking advantage of her status to force him into selling the Locust Thief Bees at a low price. The other was the havoc wreaked by the bees, making him hesitant to sell them off easily. He had managed to control the bees and uproot their hive by sheer chance. For others, accomplishing such a feat might not be possible. If he ended up selling these bees to Wan Xiaolan, and if she ended up losing control over them, causing them to swarm, he, as the instigator, would bear a major sin. Qi Tian certainly had no intention of reducing a part of the Cultivation World into ruins.
