In front of Ye Zhen’s Refined House within Dulong Island, Miao Xinghai knelt on the ground continuously banging his head against it, loudly pleading.
"Manager Di, please show great rcy, save Li’er!"
"Manager Di, I beg you!"
With each shout, Miao Xinghai would kowtow once.
Finding Manager Di from the Sky Wing Trading Company was an idea given by Miao Xinghai’s companions. This idea instantly beca Miao Xinghai’s last hope, driving him at the fastest speed to Ye Zhen’s Refined House to plead for help.
When Miao Xinghai arrived, Ye Zhen already knew, but Ye Zhen was no longer the Ye Zhen from ten years ago.
If it were Ye Zhen from ten years ago, seeing Miao Xinghai in such a condition, Ye Zhen likely wouldn’t ask anything and would agree imdiately to stand up for him. Such is the impulse of youth.
However, Ye Zhen now was much more mature in handling matters, didn’t show up to et Miao Xinghai, instead secretly sent people to investigate the matter.
Soon, within less than half a quarter-hour, the leader of ten Ghost Scouts who arrived over two months ago sent a Talisman Communication explaining everything to Ye Zhen.
"Privately affianced partner... Yuanxin Water Monarch Dang Xiao has beco a villain..."
Looking at the intelligence, Ye Zhen’s lips curled into a bitter smile.
To interfere in this matter really is as simple as uttering a word, but it’s not easy to intervene.
Firstly, this is an internal affair of the Seven Surnad Clans of Dulong Island, where the previous agreent between the two clans has established that both sides adhere to the agreent and do not interfere.
Moreover, although Yuanfeng Water Monarch has his Divine Soul imprisoned by Ye Zhen, subject to killing or saving, Yuanxin Water Monarch Dang Xiao is not Ye Zhen’s slave.
Ye Zhen, while having control of his Divine Soul, does not an he can outright trample on his dignity. Ye Zhen directly confronting him to release soone puts Yuanxin Water Monarch in a difficult position within this sea area.
How will he sit strong in Yuanxin Water Mansion?
More importantly, with the Sky Wing Trading Company’s opening ceremony imminent, Ye Zhen does not want any complications disrupting the event.
Thus, from a perspective of interests, Ye Zhen is reluctant to intervene, yet from his heart’s standpoint, he still wishes to fulfill Miao Xinghai.
Nonetheless, it really isn’t appropriate for Ye Zhen to step in.
Before Ye Zhen could make a decision, a Heavenly Patrol Divine Hunter guarding the door reported, "Sir, Grand Steward Gai Jun of the Sky Wing Trading Company requests your audience!"
"Sir, Madam has arrived..."
Before finishing the report, Liao Feibai directly pushed the door open, entering with a frosty face, "Junior Brother, you won’t stand idly by on this matter, will you?"
"Uh..." Ye Zhen was stunned for a mont, then warmly welcod her, "How could I, Senior Sister? I’m just planning how to intervene in this affair!"
Ye Zhen definitely didn’t want to be despised by Senior Sister Liao Feibai; this matter had to be handled.
Liao Feibai’s originally icy expression imdiately blood into a smiling face like spring in bloom, "I knew it, you know these Clan Leaders and Elders of Dulong Island are just too weak, how could they let their beautiful daughters be humiliated by the Demon Race?"
Ye Zhen listened, unable to respond.
If he ntioned that he’d already subdued Yuanxin Water Monarch Dang Xiao, would he be subjected to a severe scolding?
Seeing Liao Feibai’s deanor, suddenly Ye Zhen had a thought.
Previously Ye Zhen was reluctant to intervene, simply because he was the one signing the agreent personally with Chu Shengting, making it difficult for him to appear directly, but Liao Feibai is different.
Just like in previous matters, no matter how much stir Liao Feibai raised, Ye Zhen could still step in to conclude the affair.
"Manager, about Miao Xinghai’s issue, how do you intend to deal with it?" Gai Jun, who was notified and entered the room, urgently asked.
"Huh? How co soone has requested you regarding this matter as well?" Ye Zhen was sowhat surprised.
"No!"
"Manager, I hurried over upon hearing the news, this matter is a rare opportunity in a millennium for us to win over soldiers and youths among the Seven Surnad Clan of Dulong Island!" Gai Jun explained.
"Oh, how so?" Ye Zhen was a bit surprised.
"Manager, this ti Chu Shengting and several elders bending over backwards to serve Yuanxin Water Monarch Dang Xiao, though understandable due to circumstances and reluctantly so, has angered the youths of the clan. The very prospects who are the pinnacles among the Seven Surnad Clans youths, like Miao Jianghai. If we rescue Zhao Li’er, the youth of the Seven Surnad Clans will definitely have a better perception of us.
Afterwards, with a little promotion from our side, it will enhance the dissatisfaction that the Seven Surnad Clans’ soldiers and younger generation have with their Clan Leaders and Elders, weakening their prestige and control, while greatly increasing respect towards us, Sky Wing Trading Company.
It will further elevate our Sky Wing Trading Company’s prestige on Dulong Island, ensuring soldiers diligently follow orders while laborers beco more obedient, drastically lowering the influence of Seven Surnad Clan Leaders and Elders on their clans." Gai Jun said.
Ye Zhen furrowed his brows upon hearing, "With just one Miao Xinghai, it might not lead to such significant impact, right?"
"Manager, the situation is simple, just have go out and tell Miao Xinghai that it’s inappropriate for Sir to directly intervene, influence must be created, let him contact more youths to plead for help from Sir, thereby giving Sir ample justification to intervene."
"At that ti, it will be the mont for Sir to display the might of our Sky Wing Trading Company, once Sir rescues Zhao Li’er, the influence of the Seven Surnad Clan Leaders and Elders will be drastically weakened!" Gai Jun proposed.
Without much deliberation, Ye Zhen quickly nodded in agreent with Gai Jun’s plan, "Then hurry to arrange it."
Indeed, Gai Jun’s practical approach vastly surpassed Ye Zhen’s, almost gaining multiple benefits with a single deed, truly worthy of being the Tower Chief of the revitalized Stars Tower.
Gai Jun stepped out of the Refined House, and whispered a few words into Miao Xinghai’s ear as he continued kowtowing with tears of blood.
Suddenly standing upright, Miao Xinghai bowed to Gai Jun and swiftly sped toward the clan grounds of Dulong Island.
In just half a quarter-hour, one by one, youths from the Seven Surnad Clan of Dulong Island began appearing in front of Ye Zhen’s Refined House, initially in dozens, gradually increasing in number, soon exceeding hundreds, breaking thousands, within an hour, they numbered over ten thousand gathered before Ye Zhen.
Such a swift gathering of so many youth clan mbers astonished Ye Zhen.
There were certain conditions Ye Zhen was not privy to.
The Clan Leaders and Elders of the Seven Surnad Clan of Dulong Island employed mature tactics, especially with actions like ingratiating themselves and forming bonds with Yuanxin Water Monarch, a matter least tolerated by youths in their passionate pri.
Youths admire beauty, marriages among the Seven Surnad Clan youth are primarily internal, which young man isn’t passionate, which youth doesn’t love beauty.
Now, Clan Leaders and Elders offered the clan’s most beautiful won to Yuanxin Water Monarch, a Water Demon, who isn’t furious?
Who isn’t resentful?
Soon, under Miao Xinghai’s lead, more than ten thousand youths from the Seven Surnad of Dulong Island erupted in a chant like the roar of the sea and mountains, "Please Manager Di stand up for us and rescue our sisters!"
"Please Manager Di stand up for us and rescue our sisters!"
Hearing the resounding chant, Ye Zhen was about to head out with these youths to rescue them, but Gai Jun obstructed him, saying, "Manager, wait a mont, there’s still one more task to accomplish."
Under Ye Zhen’s puzzled gaze, Gai Jun once again exited, speaking before Miao Xinghai, "Our Manager has signed terms with your Grand Clan Leader Chu, both sides agreed not to interfere, so if there’s interference, it constitutes a breach of contract!
"For our shopkeeper to step forward, you need to have so connection with our Sky Wing Trading Company."
At this point, Miao Xinghai was so anxious that his mouth was full of sores, "Grand Steward, tell , how can I have so connection? Whatever you say, I’ll do it!"
Gai Jun shook his head, "Our shopkeeper is considerate and doesn’t ntion selling oneself into servitude. You just need to join the sequence of the Defense Army of Dulong Island assembled by our Sky Wing Trading Company, and then our shopkeeper will have a reason to support you!"
"The Defense Army of Dulong Island?"
"No problem, I’ll join, I’ll join!" Miao Xinghai imdiately agreed.
At that mont, not to ntion joining the Defense Army of Dulong Island, even if it ant braving a mountain of knives or a sea of fire, he probably wouldn’t blink.
Gai Jun was indeed shrewd and had already arranged a Divine Soul Telecommunication with Ye Zhen. Ye Zhen strode out of the Refined House and threw a set of Defense Army uniform towards Miao Xinghai.
"Put it on, then I’ll take you to resolve the issue!"
"No one can bully anyone from our Defense Army of Dulong Island! And no one dares to bully us!"
Ye Zhen’s words were incredibly assertive, and imdiately, so brothers who were particularly close to Miao Xinghai shouted, "Manager Di, we want to join the Defense Army of Dulong Island too, we want uniforms!"
"As long as you obey military orders, there’s no problem!" Saying this, Ye Zhen threw out another dozen uniforms.
Within a few breaths, Ye Zhen took nearly twenty Dulong Island youth wearing Defense Army uniforms and strode towards the banquet hall.
The thousands of Dulong Island youth gathered by Miao Xinghai did not rush to wear uniforms but followed to watch.
Ye Zhen welcod everyone according to Gai Jun’s plan—to spread the word—the more people gathered, the better.
Soon, young and old, a vast crowd of forty to fifty thousand gathered.
Seeing this scene, Ye Zhen was filled with admiration.
One must admit, Gai Jun’s plan this ti was truly vicious!
It was simply an unprecedented strategy!
After today, the Defense Army of Dulong Island would beco a new entity, subject to Sky Wing Trading Company orders, a group that the Seven Surnad Clan Leader and elders couldn’t influence.
Especially since most of this group were young, it was digging out the roots of the Seven Surnad Clan of Dulong Island.
The banquet for entertaining Primordial Water Monarch Dang Xiao was still ongoing, with Ye Zhen’s vast crowd of forty to fifty thousand storming in, it already raised the vigilance of the Seven Surnad Clan’s higher-ups.
Rushed three elders were dispatched to intercept this crowd on the way, led by Ninth Elder Chu Jin, who had signed an agreent with Ye Zhen alongside Chu Shengting.
"Manager Di, what is the aning of this?"
"Inciting this many of our clan’s juniors, what are you trying to do? Have you forgotten the non-interference terms between our two families?" Ninth Elder Chu Jin rebuked Ye Zhen.
Simultaneously, he angrily scolded Miao Xinghai and others behind Ye Zhen, "You little brats, trying to cause an uprising? All of you, get back ho, or else you’ll all be thrown into the mines as laborers!"
Most of the Seven Surnad Clan youth imdiately cowered after being scolded by Ninth Elder Chu Jin, but Ye Zhen spoke up at this mont, "Elder Chu, I heard that you offered Defense Army squad leader Miao Xinghai’s unmarried bride Zhao Li’er to the Primordial Water Monarch.
I, as the head of the Defense Army, specifically ca to demand justice for them!"
Chu Jin’s expression was montarily stunned, then he sneered, "Manager Di, your excuse is well-prepared! However, this is an internal matter of our Seven Surnad Clan, it doesn’t concern you!"
"What if I insist on intervening?" Ye Zhen’s eyes suddenly narrowed.
"Then Manager Di might as well try...."
"I want to see who dares stop while I seek justice for the soldiers under !" Ye Zhen glanced disdainfully at Ninth Elder Chu Jin, then strode towards the distant great hall.
"Follow , let’s see who dares to stop !"
With Ye Zhen’s roar, Ninth Elder Chu Jin and the three elders simultaneously turned pale and blocked Ye Zhen’s path, yet before they could steady themselves, the Acquired Spirit Treasure Thunder Light Whip suddenly rose behind Ye Zhen.
Boom!
As thunderous as a thunderclap, the mont the light appeared, it crashed onto Ninth Elder Chu Jin’s head at close range.
Luckily, Ninth Elder Chu Jin, aware of Ye Zhen’s power, had already activated his Soul Armor and mobilized all his strength in defense while blocking Ye Zhen.
Yet, even so, under one strike of the Evil Punishing Divine Thunder, Ninth Elder Chu Jin, who had a cultivation as high as the Dark Palace Realm Fifth Stage, twitched all over, rolling his eyes, and fainted.
This was still under the circumstance where Ye Zhen showed rcy.
One must know that when Ye Zhen’s cultivation was at the Ninth Stage of Dao Entrance Realm, a single Evil Punishing Divine Thunder activated by the Acquired Spirit Treasure Thunder Light Whip could severely injure a martial artist at the Middle Late Stage of the Dark Palace Realm.
Now with Ye Zhen’s cultivation advancing to the Second Stage of Divine Communication Realm, the power of the Evil Punishing Divine Thunder would have increased by four or five tis, if not doubled.
At the mont the Evil Punishing Divine Thunder was unleashed, Ye Zhen held back by thirty percent; otherwise, Ninth Elder Chu Jin would have been reduced to ash.
Sixth Elder and Tenth Elder simultaneously uttered startled and agitated sounds, intending to attack Ye Zhen.
Roar!
Screech!
The roar of the Cloud Winged Tiger King and the cry of the Nine-Headed Beast sounded simultaneously, especially the aura of the Ancient Fierce Beast emitted by the Nine-Headed Beast, directly terrifying Tenth Elder with repeated changes in color.
An Evil Punishing Divine Thunder tinged with crimson began to roll in Ye Zhen’s palm, producing faint rumbling thunder sounds, as Ye Zhen coldly stared at Sixth Elder and Tenth Elder blocking ahead.
Under Ye Zhen’s icy gaze, the expressions of Sixth Elder and Tenth Elder beca imnsely awkward, their eyes filled with fear.
After all, Ninth Elder’s condition was still unknown.
Ye Zhen stepped forward, gently nudging their shoulders to directly push Sixth Elder and Tenth Elder aside, then shouted, "Co on, follow to the hall to demand justice!"
In an instant, several tens of thousands of the Seven Surnad Clan youth from Dulong Island surrounded the great hall from all directions, while the thousands of guards nearby were stupefied.
What to do about this?
Even the elders were intimidated, what could they possibly do?
They could only watch with wide eyes as Ye Zhen led Miao Xinghai and others charging towards the banquet hall.
From the heavens and the earth, the gaze of each Dulong Island Seven Surnad Clan youth towards Ye Zhen had beco one of unparalleled admiration!
Bang!
In the next mont, Ye Zhen, disregarding the guards on either side as if they were non-existent, lifted a foot and kicked the door of the great hall into pieces!
