Chapter 718: Miao Zhi and the Price

Lin Yuan touched the amber-button-shaped Diamond fey storage box on his sleeve and thought,

We never figured out who from the Zheng family sent the mysterious messenger pigeon. It’s time to figure out what their goal is.

In the secret room in the Zheng family’s main mansion, bottles containing various rare spiritual ingredients lined the shelves.

A pale-faced young man dressed in Creation Master robes reclined on a sofa.

A black and white sable jumped down and quickly swiped a chess piece. It crushed the piece and swallowed it.

At that moment, the loud thud of the table being slammed stunned the sable, and it quickly tossed the rest of the piece into the teapot.

The young man dressed in Creation Master robes lost his previous relaxed demeanor. Instead, he roared, “Are there devils running about the Royal Capital? This group had so many king-class experts and pinnacle king-class experts. How could we lose all communication with them? I don’t believe the Zheng family doesn’t have a grip on the Royal Capital!”

At that moment, the old man standing next to Zheng Kaiyuan smiled and said, “Don’t be angry, Young Lord. I don’t think you need to be overly concerned about the words that the Listening Heron Chamber of Commerce’s experts carved on the Royal Capital table. I think you should bring this up with Madam. She definitely has a grip on the Royal Capital.”

The smiling old man talked about the Zheng family with an air of nonchalance. But when he mentioned the ‘Madam’, a look of utmost respect appeared on his face.

Zheng Kaiyuan toyed with the turquoise ring with crimson deep-sea engravings on his thumb.

He looked at the smiling old man and said sullenly, “If I go to Mother for everything, Father won’t be happy. Moreover, this team of king-class experts was sent from the Zheng family’s spy team. Father cannot find out that we lost so many of them.

“Why don’t I send Nightmare IV and Nightmare V to the Royal Capital? They excel at espionage. If we send them to investigate who’s behind the Listening Heron Chamber of Commerce, they should be able to do a good job.”

The smiling old man’s throat itched. After he heard what Zheng Kaiyuan said, he almost started to cough as he anxiously implored, “Second Young Master, please don’t make any impulsive moves! The two pinnacle king-class experts from this team were with Nightmare VI when it followed the third lineage and was killed.

“They both said that the Listening Heron Chamber of Commerce has to have an emperor-class expert on their side. They also said that the weakest king-class expert they have is at the highest king-class expert level. There’s no other way to explain how they killed the Suzerain/Myth II Nightmare VI.”

The smiling old man’s words made Zheng Kaiyuan frown deepen.

Zheng Kaiyuan looked at the sable sharpening its claws on the chessboard and clearly craving for the pieces in the teapot. He felt a twinge of annoyance and waved his hand to send his favorite Yin-Yang Senluo Sable into the spiritual spatial zone.

The smiling old man took the opportunity to say, “Young Lord, not only does the Zheng family’s blood run in your veins but so does the blood of the Miao family. No one will dare to go against the Spirit Guards’ order regarding the upcoming active period of the dimensional rift.

“The Zheng family is just a veteran faction, and it won’t be able to move freely in Indigo Azure City at this time. Any inappropriate movement that causes trouble will incite ire from the two Spirit Guards that are currently stationed in Indigo Azure City.

“The Miao family, however, is different. They are a top faction. If you bring this matter up with Madam, she might be able to solve the Listening Heron Chamber of Commerce problem for you immediately.”

Zheng Kaiyuan said vexedly, “Uncle He, you’re so annoying! If I tell Mother about this matter, any movement on her part and Master will immediately know that I haven’t been properly practicing how to concoct spirit fluids recently and increasing my powers as a Creation Master. Then, I’ll be sent back to Connected Beast Park and locked away to train for a year.”

Uncle He’s smiling expression faltered.

The Young Lord he knew did not like hard work. He had to be afraid that Master Miao Qi would lock him up for training back at Connected Beast Park.

Zheng Kaiyuan was silent for a second before he stood up and sighed.

“Come with me to see Mother. Father gave Nightmare I, Nightmare II, and Nightmare III to Big Brother. He gave me Nightmare IV, Nightmare V, and Nightmare VI. If I had Nightmare I, which is so close to evolving to Creation Breed, I would be able to resolve this situation on my own.

“Big Brother is a member of the Radiance Hundred Sequence and doesn’t care about inheriting the family. It’s such a waste for Father to give him Nightmare I, Nightmare II, and Nightmare III!”

At present, a middle-aged woman wearing a long skirt with many gems embroidered into it was holding her waist-length hair as she elegantly touched the luxury jewelry displayed on the walls.

Her opulent dressing gave the plain-looking middle-aged woman a graceful air.

She frowned slightly and carefully studied the luxury jewelry on the wall. It was like she was stuck over which ring, necklace, and earrings to choose.

A rich-looking old lady walked up behind her. She bowed to the middle-aged woman and said, “Madam, Young Lord is here to see you.”

The middle-aged woman’s frown vanished, and she unhesitatingly grabbed a pair of earrings with Law Crystals embedded into it and put it on.

She walked to the door and kicked Zheng Kaiyuan into the room before grabbing a measuring tape and said excitedly, “Kaiyuan, I was just about to go to you. It’s good that you’re here. Let me measure if you’ve grown taller. I have some time recently to make two sets of clothes for you.”

Zheng Kaiyuan thought to himself how this was not the right time. His mother was a Class 5 Weaver.

Whenever she was free, she would make clothes.

Every time she took measurements, it would take at least an hour to satisfy her OCD behavior.

Zheng Kaiyuan quickly told his mother about why he came.

After Miao Zhi heard what Zheng Kaiyuan said, her eyes flashed with ferocity.

Her sharp glare was like the stinger of a bee.

“Kaiyuan, how much do you know about the faction that’s supporting the Listening Heron Chamber of Commerce? Everyone in the Radiance Federation knows that the Miao family is supporting the Zheng family. Since you said the opponent still refuses to back down despite knowing who you are and even killed the people you sent over, this means they’re looking down on the entire Miao family and me. Hehe, they will have to pay a terrible price for this mistake.”
