Chapter 597: Chapter 532: The Inconspicuous Way Chapter 597: Chapter 532: The Inconspicuous Way At the top floor garden villa of the Yue Family mansion, Yue Yun, who had seemingly recovered on the surface, bowed slightly to Tao Yu, speaking sowhat reluctantly,
“Please forgive the previous offense, Mr.
Teng.
That foolish ghost who stopped you for no reason has been arranged to go to the Abyss for thread-filling.”
Although it was himself who had been beaten up before, it was indeed the people from the Yue Family who had actively intercepted the other party, and it was they who had taken a strong stance first.
Actually, this shouldn’t have been a big deal.
Yue Yun was able to mix in as the Inspector of the Tianxing District, and with that kind of surveillance nearby, it was clear that the Yue Family was powerful enough.
In every respect, this area truly was their territory!
But, weakness is the original sin.
...
If it weren’t for the Ancestor Patriach Yue sitting in for the Yue Family, to put it bluntly, it would have been a death in vain!
It was because the Yue Family was strong enough that they saved him.
“Hmm, knowing your mistake is good enough, just don’t be so rash again.”
Tao Yu spoke magnanimously, then glanced at a pretty young girl who had also co to et him.
To Tao Yu, who was used to seeing beautiful won, this girl wasn’t breathtaking, but there was an aura about her that he found quite disagreeable.
Or perhaps, her attributes clashed sowhat negatively with his current main attributes.
Was she the Yue Family’s Saintess in reserve?
This made Tao Yu keep a nonchalant exterior while he pondered inwardly,
“Ancestor Patriach Yue personally ca to ask for peace, it can’t be just because of ‘respect’, could she have also noticed sothing?”
Tao Yu was certain this girl had sothing special; feeling disdain despite such a huge difference in strength likely indicated a remarkably outstanding talent, probably of a more positive attribute.
However, this could only explain why the Yue Family was willing to offend the Gu Family for her, and seemingly intended to nurture her as a future core mber.
“Actually, the reason for inviting Mr.
Teng here is to turn swords into plowshares.
This is our gesture of apology, and we hope you won’t find it inadequate.”
Yue Yun personally handed over a small and exquisitely crafted gift box.
Tao Yu opened it to find a milky-white bracelet, which had a certain effect in resisting curses.
Although not particularly powerful, it was still a rather rare curse-class defense item, with so pollution-resistant effects as well.
It was worth a small sum of money.
Given the previous situation, offering it as an apology was not losing face.
Yet, the effect of the item caught Tao Yu’s interest.
Without much concealnt, he slipped the bracelet onto his wrist, then spoke with apparent indifference,
“What’s the aning of this?
Wanting to test if I am a follower of the Evil God?
You’re thinking too much.
But at least you didn’t directly accuse of anything or try to denounce like you did with the Harkonnen family.”
Tao Yu’s casual deanor, and the fact that the bracelet showed no adverse reaction, caused Yue Bing, who had been watching intently, to breathe a little easier.
She spoke up,
“Senior Teng, I’m truly sorry.
It’s just that I felt a bit uneasy.”
“Kid, with such a great gap in strength, even if my Ability were of the Holy Light, it could make you feel uneasy.
Only your own strength is the real deal.”
Tao Yu spoke in a lecturing tone.
His previous remarks about the Harkonnen family went uncontested by the Yue Family.
This could be taken as confirmation.
After all, that matter indeed seed a bit far-fetched.
Who knew Tao Yu himself would be cleared?
Looking back at the incident, those with the motive to do such a thing were only a couple of families.
Combined with the heightened security in the area, it was not surprising that the Assassin’s League would make such a deduction.
As for the consequences of being found out, the Yue Family didn’t care that much.
Since they took the initiative, they obviously had multiple considerations, and if the failure was fully exposed, they could bear the consequences.
They were already hostile to the Harkonnen family, and relations were quite terrible.
As for implicating the Suns, it was just an extra move; at worst, it ant making enemies.
As long as the Suns weren’t focusing their main attention on White Star City, the impact would be minimal.
The strongest mber of the Suns in White Star City was just a World Breaker; it didn’t matter at all.
No matter what had happened before, they had eliminated a World Breaker of the Decaron Family—they were the ones with the upper hand!
They had already taken advantage of the situation.
“If it’s causing Bing to feel uneasy, I, too, am a bit curious.
I wonder if I could buy so information from Brother Teng?
Is it sothing from the new developnt zone in Starshine City?”
As the only host present whose status exceeded that of Tao Yu, Ancestor Patriach Yue took the initiative to speak.
“What’s the price?”
Instead of answering, Tao Yu first asked about the price.
Because oftentis refusing to answer in itself can reveal quite a bit of information.
“That depends on what Brother Teng wants, doesn’t it?”
“To be honest, I’m quite interested in the Nephite Realm.
Your family’s chosen Qilin child should have so additional information, right?
If you can make a copy for , I can provide so information in return that might be of use.
We can sign a contract.”
Tao Yu’s words only made Ancestor Patriach Yue hesitate for a mont before nodding in agreent,
“That can be arranged…”
The Assassin’s League certainly had its fair share of information about the Nephite Realm, but exchanging it just to double-check against each other’s data might not yield any new, useful information for the other party.
In contrast, the things from the new developnt zone in Starshine City were likely sothing they didn’t have, so they were actually coming out ahead.
And so contract docunts, for the ordinary mbers of the Floating City and the Yue family, might be quite precious.
But for soone like Ancestor Patriach Yue, they could easily be procured on a whim.
The two parties swiftly signed an agreent that needed to be ‘equivalent’.
“All the intelligence we’ve gathered about the Nephite Realm is in there.”
Ancestor Patriach Yue handed over sothing resembling a USB drive, and Tao Yu didn’t look at it on the spot but took it and then began to explain a little,
“I think it might be related to a separate world near Starshine City.
That world is extrely dangerous, and there’s a lot of pollution.
Although I managed to gain so special abilities, I now dare not enter it again…”
Tao Yu gave a brief overview of the Mysterious World.
And indeed, he had not lied throughout the entire conversation, only omitting so key details.
If you’re interested in going in, then go.
After all, I myself don’t have the courage now.
Even angels had ended up like that, let alone the King of Angels, the True God, the Ancient Days—Tao Yu wasn’t eager to try those out yet.
If there were other Pioneers willing to scout the way, that was fine too!
“Moreover, the young upstart from the Suns whom you labeled might have also been to that world.
I’ve sensed so abilities that I’ve seen before.
His ability to preserve his life is very strong.
If you’re planning to deal with him, you better be careful…”
Teng Lianghong had given Tao Yu a bolt of lightning, which Tao Yu had dodged.
Although the Yue Family didn’t know about this at the mont, as ti passed and fernted, or if they actively sought it out, they should be able to understand so of it.
After all, the battle with the Harkonnen Family back then hadn’t been quiet.
If the Assassin’s League had already obtained so information, it proved that the details couldn’t be kept secret—it was just a matter of how much they were willing to pay for the intelligence.
“That doesn’t really matter—we’re not specifically aiming to deal with the Suns.”
Ancestor Patriach Yue seed unconcerned about it, one World Breaker was rely a World Breaker, at most one whose survival skills were remarkably strong.
Being able to defeat Shi Di and establish his reputation, his strength was indeed not weak.
But that was all.
“Surely the Suns wouldn’t go through great lengths over such a trivial matter as to offend us, right?”
Yue Yun, who was beside him, seed completely indifferent as well.
In his view, it was a minor issue.
The Suns, without any foundation in the State Capital, would be best off playing dumb, acting as if they knew nothing!
“I’m just kindly reminding you; they might have already guessed who it was.
And that ‘Eight-Ard Vajra’ has only awakened for two years—who knows how much he will grow in the future…”
Tao Yu, in turn, decided to stir up so discord for himself.
The Yue Family was quite large.
Using one faction to capture might be too conspicuous.
If later Teng Lianghong captures a batch, Decaron captures another, and the Suns another, it wouldn’t be so noticeable.
Let the Yue Family offend enough people and get revenge, what does my ‘Eight-Ard Vajra’ have to do with that…
