Fey Evolution Merchant (Web Novel)

Chapter 1146: Utterly Done For

Miao He broke out in a cold sweat, and his hatred for Zheng Kaiyuan intensified.

This was already the second time Zheng Kaiyuan was trying to trip him up.

But if Lin Yuan attacked Miao He now, he would not be able to be the Miao family’s Eldest Young Master anymore.

In fact, if Lin Yuan so much as chased him out of the Return from Faraway Mansion, it was likely that his grandfather would place Miao Teng as the Miao family’s Eldest Young Master instead, just like how he himself had replaced Miao Zhuo.

Miao He hurriedly said, “Lord Lin Yuan, I was really unaware of what had happened that day. Everyone present that day can vouch for me. But even if I weren’t at the root of the matter, I’m also willing to express my apologies to your friend. I will give your friend 2,000,000 Radiance dollars as compensation and as a show of sincerity.”

He took out his phone and showed the records of his conversation with Tian Ningning, where she barraged him with questions about news about top factions.

He wanted to show Lin Yuan that he was on decent terms with Tian Ningning.

Lin Yuan frowned.

The more eager Miao He was to prove himself, the more he hated Zheng Kaiyuan.

News that Sky City had not destroyed the Zheng family’s residence in Indigo Azure City would soon spread.

Zheng Kaiyan was currently leading the Zheng family.

Once Zheng Kaiyuan learned of this, he would definitely run back to the Zheng family to fight for leadership with Zheng Kaiyan.

Zheng Kaiyan was in charge of the Zheng family because he was the only direct descendant left in the residence.

Although he was the one who led to the Zheng family’s demise, Zheng Kaiyuan’s influence on the Zheng family would allow him to overturn Zheng Kaiyan easily.

Hence, there was no way Lin Yuan would allow Zheng Kaiyuan to live.

Miao He’s hatred toward Zheng Kaiyuan proved that he would not allow Zheng Kaiyuan to live another day the moment he ran out of value.

According to the information gathered by Wen Yu, Lin Yuan knew that Miao Qi was Zheng Kaiyuan’s teacher.

He was not sure whether she would save Zheng Kaiyuan from Miao He.

Thus, Lin Yuan needed to add more fuel to the flame.

“Since my friend has forgiven you, I won’t say anything else. The tea prepared today is the Three Treasures Tea. Pour a cup out and warm yourself.”

Miao He’s eyes lit up because Lin Yuan’s tea invitation meant that no more blame was being assigned to him and because the Three Treasures Tea could only be found in the Radiant Moon Palace.

Miao He did not have the authority to enter the Radiant Moon Palace, so he never had the chance to drink Three Treasures Tea.

Now, Lin Yuan was offering him this opportunity.

Miao He looked forward to bragging about this to the other superficial disciples.

When Zheng Kaiyuan heard what Lin Yuan said, his face lost even more color, and terror crept into his heart.

Miao Zhuo mustered up his courage and said, “Lord Lin Yuan, I went overboard at the Guard Ye Banquet and offended you. Since then, I’ve humbly reflected on my actions. I would like to apologize to you sincerely. I’ll do anything you ask!”

Miao Zhuo had laid every shred of his pride aside. No main member of a top faction should say such things.

However, Miao Zhuo was well aware of the reason for his presence.

If he had any chance of making a comeback in the Miao family, Lin Yuan would have to forgive him.

Miao Zhuo had not had an easy time in the Miao family recently, especially during the time that Liu Jie had exerted pressure on the Miao family.

He had even noticed the sneers of some collateral descendants. This had caused Miao Zhuo’s pride to be torn to pieces.

Lin Yuan noticed Miao He’s smug expression and said with a smile, “Since the incident at the Guard Ye Banquet has passed, there’s no point in harping on it. I’m good friends with Sun Ningxiang. You should apologize to her too.”

Miao Zhuo hurriedly replied, “Lord Lin Yuan, Connected Beast Park will never target Condense Fairy Orchard again. You have my word. Once we leave, I’ll immediately seek out Sun Ningxiang and apologize to her.”

Miao Zhuo was no longer the Miao family’s Eldest Young Master and could not speak on behalf of the Miao family.

However, he was not lying, as Miao Zhenshan had told him that the Miao family was going to give up on Condense Fairy Orchard.

This was going to be one of Miao Zhuo’s means to seek Lin Yuan’s forgiveness, and he did not expect Lin Yuan to bring it up first.

At Miao Zhuo’s sincere tone, Lin Yuan was silent for a moment before he said, “Since you’re so earnest, I shall speak up for you with the Young Liege of the Midnight Palace.”

Miao Zhuo broke out into a wide grin as he felt all the sins he had incurred at the Midnight Palace being washed away.

Although ,Zuo Ming had destroyed his roots and he could never become a Class 4 Creation Master, he could now live a more comfortable life in the Miao family.

Miao Zhuo knew that he was more capable of being the Miao family’s leader than Miao He and that his grandfather preferred him over Miao He as well.

Otherwise, his grandfather would not have named him as the Young Leader of the Miao family the moment he turned of age.

There was even a chance of him competing toe to toe with Miao He when they returned to the Miao family.

Miao He looked shocked that Lin Yuan had forgiven Miao Zhuo so easily, and he felt a heavy pressure coming from Miao Zhuo pressing down on him.

He felt that his position as the Eldest Young Master of the Miao family was no longer as stable as it was before.

Zheng Kaiyuan’s panic had taken over him.

He had only been afraid that Miao He and Lin Yuan would become close. But now, both Miao Zhuo and Miao He had become positively acquainted with Lin Yuan.

Zheng Kaiyuan was at a complete loss.

In his panic, he made a mad scramble and said, “Lord Lin Yuan, Miao Zhuo had pointed directly at your nose. When he returned to the Miao family, he also made many unsavory remarks about you.”

Lin Yuan now knew that Zheng Kaiyuan was utterly done for.

Previously, Zheng Kaiyuan had only spoken of Miao He with a sinister tone.

But now, he was flat-out accusing Miao Zhuo.
