Chapter 719: Guard Ye Banquet

After Nightmare VI’s death, Zheng Kaiyuan had intentionally sought the Indigo Azure Guard Captain to ask for information.

The Indigo Azure Guard Captain had only mentioned Sky City and did not reveal any other information about the fight.

But the words ‘Sky City’ had left Zheng Kaiyuan completely clueless. He had never heard of such a faction before.

Zheng Kaiyuan had never told anyone else this. But when his mother asked him, Zheng Kaiyuan replied honestly, “Mother, after my investigation, I heard that the faction supporting the Listening Heron Chamber of Commerce is called Sky City. But I haven’t been able to find out anything about Sky City.”

Zheng Kaiyuan assumed that he had said something very ordinary, but his mother drew her brow together tightly, and the ferocious glint in her gaze intensified. The bee stinger had turned into the venomous stinger of a scorpion.

The menace in Miao Zhi’s eyes covered the light reflecting off the earrings embedded with Law Crystals.

She started to laugh coldly as she shrieked, “Sky City! Sky City again! I can’t believe that one month before Sky City fought against my Miao family’s Connected Beast Park, they already got on the wrong side of my son.”

Although Miao Zhi had married into the Zheng family, she was still a main member of the Miao family and still held a lot of authority in the Miao family.

Naturally, she was aware of the Miao family’s schemes against Condense Fairy Orchard.

This step in the strategy was extremely important to the Miao family.

The Sun family had collapsed, and the once-grand family was left with one old lady and two children who struggled to keep themselves afloat.

To the Miao family, the Sun family was a juicy piece of meat.

As a top faction, if the Miao family’s Connected Beast Park could devour Condense Fairy Orchard, the Miao family could use the Sun family’s resources to dominate the market on plant-type feys.

At that time, the Miao family would have the right and correct role to wrestle against the Long family from Ascending Dragon City.

Thus, the Sun family was an important piece of the puzzle that had to be seized at all costs.

However, Sky City’s sudden appearance caused the Miao family’s initially perfect trap for the Sun family to fall through.

Now, instead of heading for inevitable doom, Condense Fairy Orchard had a chance to be saved.

After a thorough investigation, the Miao family was shocked to find out that Sky City barely existed in the physical world. They were just like ghosts that only appeared on Star Web, so the Miao family was unable to go after them.

Now, Miao Zhi could use their connection to her son to attack the Listening Heron Chamber of Commerce that was connected to Sky City.

Whether it was a dragon or a snake, those hiding in the shadows were terrifying.

But if one could just grab hold of their tails, one would have the chance to yank the dragon or snake out of hiding.

“Mother, Sky City has a strong fighting ability. At the very least, they have king-class battle prowess.”

Zheng Kaiyuan told Miao Zhi about how he had sent Nightmare VI to help the third lineage to work with Jiao Hanzhong to kill the masked youth.

When Miao Zhi was asking her son about how the masked youth looked, a look of confirmation appeared in her eyes.

According to Zheng Kaiyuan’s information, the two masked youths’ masks had different patterns.

One of them was wearing a mask with majestic sky city patterns, which matched that of the masked youth that appeared in Sky City’s private faction territory.

Miao Zhi felt that it was highly likely that they were the same person.

This meant that the Listening Heron Chamber of Commerce was very important to Sky City. But Miao Zhi could not understand why a small chamber of commerce like the Listening Heron Chamber of Commerce that could not even be considered a rising faction would be valuable to Sky City when the latter already controlled an enormous amount of Creation Master resources.

“Kaiyuan, leave this matter to me. You should focus on increasing your Creation Master powers and prepare to enter next year’s youth Creation Master Conference so you can finish in the top ten.”

When Zheng Kaiyuan heard what Miao Zhi said, he nodded helplessly. He said slightly with a slightly troubled tone, “I know. I’ve been concocting spirit fluids for 12 hours in the breeding room every day. I’ll definitely be able to become a Class 3 Creation Master in a year.”

Miao Zhi shook her head. “12 hours is far from sufficient. When I called my sister, she told me to make sure that you’re working as hard as you did in Connected Beast Park. You have to concoct spirit fluids for 16 hours at least every day.”

Zheng Kaiyuan’s expression soured, and he said dejectedly, “I know. I’ll do my best.”

Miao Zhi adjusted his collar and said, “You can’t just try your best! You have to make sure that you’ll be able to reach the level of a Class 3 Creation Master in a year’s time. My sister said that if I can’t ensure that you’re spending 16 hours every day concocting spirit fluids, I have to send you back to her.”

Zheng Kaiyuan froze.

Miao Qi was nice in every other way and gave him whatever he wanted, but she was strict to a fault!

The two long years he had spent training under Miao Qi were Zheng Kaiyuan’s nightmare.

Besides eating, voiding himself, and sleeping for four hours, the rest of the time was spent in the breeding room concocting spirit fluid after spirit fluid. Even prisoners had much more freedom!

Most importantly, every time he failed to concoct a spirit fluid or the spiritual ingredients were not homogenized enough, Master Miao Zhi would look at him with scorn and start berating him.

Zheng Kaiyuan quickly barked, “I’ll spend 16 hours every day concocting spirit fluids, not a minute less! Other than concocting spirit fluids, I’ll also spend an hour every day writing reflections on the process of concocting spirit fluids.”

When she heard what Zheng Kaiyuan said, Miao Zhi nodded with satisfaction.

A thought seemed to occur to her as she said, “My sister wanted me to tell you that in two weeks, the Spirit Guards’ Chief Guard Ye will host a Guard Ye Banquet. Apparently, she has accepted a disciple that she wants to announce. My sister will personally come to fetch you to the Guard Ye Banquet.

“This time, the Bamboo Monarch, Chef Supreme, and the Moon Empress will all be in attendance. They’ll also bring along their disciples.

“I heard the Moon Empress, who used to be the only one without a disciple, has secretly accepted a disciple. She even turned her nose at the Long family. I wonder how the special person she chose looks like.

“Kaiyuan, you have to make sure to make a good impression on Chief Guard Ye and the Moon Empress’ disciples. It’ll make your journey in the future a little smoother!”
