Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Zheng Kaiyuan knew how to carry himself.

His grandfather assumed that he was very close to Lin Yuan. It seemed that the closer Zheng Kaiyuan was to Lin Yuan, the more benefits Zheng Kaiyuan would receive.

He had to say that Lin Yuan had a bad temper so that his grandfather would choose even more precious items from the treasure trove to give as gifts.

Zheng Kaiyuan might even be able to slip something out from the huge pile of gifts.

In the next hour, Zheng Kaiyuan felt as though he had reached the peak of his life as he continuously received a stream of compliments from Miao Zhenshan and Miao Qi.

He finally felt like he was the true Eldest Young Master of the Miao family, while Miao Zhuo was just a pathetic and helpless dog.

An hour later, Zheng Kaiyuan left Miao Zhenshen’s study room with his head held high.

Miao Zhuo held his injuries that had been inflicted by the vase and limped out behind Zheng Kaiyuan, a shell of his former self.

He took a few quick yet hesitant steps and said to Zheng Kaiyuan, “Cousin, why not—”

Before Miao Zhuo could finish speaking, Zheng Kaiyuan took a huge step forward and bumped into Miao Zhuo’s injured shoulder as he drawled, “Don’t call me ‘cousin’. Just call me by my name. Miao Zhuo, after you were chased out of the Midnight Palace for insulting Lord Lin Yuan, he told me that he wanted to get his revenge on you. He only let the matter rest after I spoke up for you. Don’t you think that you should repay me?”

Miao Zhuo’s eyes darkened.

He remembered how sweet and obedient Zheng Kaiyuan had been the first time he came to learn from Miao Qi. He also remembered how brightly Zheng Kaiyuan had smiled when Miao Zhuo responded to him.

But now, it seemed as though he had committed a grievous sin by calling out to Zheng Kaiyuan.

Miao Zhuo was not stupid, and he could tell from his brief interaction with Lin Yuan at the Guard Ye Banquet that Lin Yuan was a well-mannered person.

Otherwise, Lin Yuan would have been the one to attack him instead of Chief Guard Ye’s disciple.

Lin Yuan had not openly attacked Miao Zhuo as the Moon Empress’ disciple. Hence, there was no way that he would want to do so after the incident.

Thus, Zheng Kaiyuan was lying through his teeth when he said that Lin Yuan had a bad temper.

But currently, Miao Zhuo did not have the ability or authority to reveal Zheng Kaiyuan’s lies.

Miao Zhuo inhaled deeply and said, “How do you suggest I repay you?”

Zheng Kaiyuan scoffed and replied, “Miao Zhuo, I heard that your guard has reached pinnacle emperor-class and has two feys that reached pinnacle Myth III. Can you lend your guard to me?”

Miao Zhuo’s expression hardened, and he glared at Zheng Kaiyuan while replying in a gentle tone, “Why do you need Elder Liu? He has been out of the field for a year. He’s currently gathering resources to enable one of his feys to undergo the Trial of World Creation to evolve to Creation Breed.”

It was clear that Miao Zhuo was rejecting the offer. However, Zheng Kaiyuan seemed to not have heard the rejection as he said, “Since Elder Liu is unavailable, can you lend me your other four emperor-class experts? That way, Elder Liu won’t have to do anything and can just supervise. I also remember that you seem to have a bone to pick with Sky City. I want to borrow Elder Liu from you so that I can destroy Sky City by targeting the Listening Heron Chamber of Commerce. I don’t think you’ll have any objections to me taking on Sky City! If you insist on rejecting me, I’ll have no choice but to go to Grandfather for help. Will you reject him too?”

Miao Zhuo did not expect Zheng Kaiyuan to have him checkmated in one speech. There was no way that Miao Zhuo could say no now.

Miao Zhuo’s features tightened as he replied, “Kaiyuan, you can do as you see fit. Everyone in the Miao family knows about my situation, and I’m too embarrassed to order around those emperor-class experts. You can tell Grandfather about this plan, and he might be able to supply you with more manpower. If he agrees, you’ll still be able to order around my subordinates.”

Miao Zhuo turned and limped away, his figure a sorry sight.

Zheng Kaiyuan mumbled with disdain, “Ignorant.”

Zheng Kaiyuan turned and walked back into the study room. He planned on using the next few days to destroy the entire Sky City with the power of the Miao family.

Otherwise, Nightmare VI’s death would always hang over Zheng Kaiyuan’s head, and he would always feel like someone was watching him.

…

In the master bedroom of the Return from Faraway Mansion, Lin Yuan noticed that it was already 8:00 a.m.

Chimey and Genius had tunneled into his pajamas sometime during the night.

Lin Yuan did not know what to do.

In order to not wake either of them up, he gently took off his clothes on the bed and changed into a set of waterproof spirit qi clothes and shoes.

After he walked out of the room, he saw Lu Pinru and Wen Yu flipping through papers while seated at a table.

The papers were full of various fashion designs.

Lin Yuan noticed that their designs were very similar as both were minimalistic.

“We need to start producing these spirit qi clothes. We can buy several clothes factories and assign Class 2 Weavers to each station to ensure quality. But to establish our brand’s reputation, we can’t just rely on these spirit qi clothes. Thus, I think we should offer high-quality custom clothes. I would like to hire a Class 5 Weaver who specializes in custom-making clothes and another Class 5 Weaver who specializes in design to handle the high-quality custom-making clothes service,” said Wen Yu.

Lu Pinru looked impressed by Wen Yu. Lu Pinru was very skilled at designing and making spirit qi clothes, but she felt that she was leagues away from Wen Yu when it came to building a business.

Although Wen Yu was good at managing resources, she was not actually very creative when it came to building a business.

All her ideas came from watching Lin Yuan manage his private territory.

Lin Yuan did not disturb Wen Yu and Lu Pinru. Instead, he walked downstairs and sat down next to Endless Summer.

Endless Summer said expectantly, “Lin Yuan, when are you taking me to that place you mentioned?”

Lin Yuan took out his phone and replied, “I told Listen to bring something over. We’ll leave once it’s here.”

He called Listen.

After some contemplation, he decided to ask Listen to prepare the essence blood of some scavenger feys.

Since scavenger feys could consume decaying flesh, their blood was extremely resistant to bacteria.

Lin Yuan would be able to attract more Marsh Crocodiles using the scavenger feys’ essence blood.

After receiving the ten barrels of essence blood from Listen, Lin Yuan instructed Endless Summer to enter the Jewelled Cave Golden Toad, and he went into the Spirit Lock spatial zone.

He entered the marsh world using Klein Hub and realized that something had changed.

Lin Yuan’s anger surged when he saw Rising Lizard with its four injured heads and the almost dead Scale Concubine and Wendy.

He sensed intense energy fluctuations above him and looked up to see the Kill Food Sky Butterfly battling an extremely strange-looking dimensional lifeform.
