Chapter 1532: Chapter 83 Wang Fugui Turning the Clouds and Rain (Vote for Monthly Ticket)_3
As one of the Great Heavenly Prouds of his generation in the family, Wei Mingyu was decades older than Wei Qingyun and slightly more talented.
Despite the fact that he harbored so reservations about the Old Ancestor Dongyu’s affection and protection of Wei Qingyun, he dared not show it on his face and reported respectfully, “Additionally, today several elders from the family ca to see you, clamoring for you to deal with nephew Qingyun. I’ve stopped them as per your instructions. However…”
He paused hesitantly, “I worry that if this continues, nephew Qingyun will incite public outrage.”
Because Wei Qingyun lost the Tree of Fortune, the family’s elders held significant objections, and it was only after Wei Dongyu showed his anger that the situation was barely suppressed.
But everyone knew that this matter would not be so easily resolved.
The Tree of Fortune was too important to the Wei Family.
“Stop worrying about these useless things,” Wei Dongyu glanced at him without much concern, “The most important thing for you right now is to take good care of Qingyun. As for the rest, leave it to . I will find a way to get back the Tree of Fortune myself.”
As they were speaking, a servant ca to report: “Old Ancestor, the Family Head requests an audience.”
Could it be that the investigation into Wang Anye had yielded results?
“Let him in.”
Wei Dongyu instructed casually.
As long as they confird Wang Anye’s identity, background, and specific information, they could start preparing to deal with him.
The Tree of Fortune was the foundation of the Wei Family’s rapid rise—absolutely nothing could go wrong with it.
This ti, no matter what, he had to find a way to retake the Tree of Fortune!
As he pondered, the Family Head of the Wei Family, Wei Wentao, was ushered in by Wei Mingyu.
Wei Mingyu then excused himself.
The matters to co were no longer sothing he could be involved in.
Jingan Wei Family’s Head, Wei Wentao, was a middle-aged man with a proper appearance and a calm deanor.
Dressed in a dark blue Heavenly Silk Brocade Robe, his brows were tightly knit, his expression troubled, revealing an aura of urgency and unease.
“What’s going on?” Wei Dongyu sensed sothing was wrong just by looking at his expression, “Could it be that the boy has so formidable background? Is our family unable to touch him?”
“Reporting to the Old Ancestor, it’s not like that. That young man nad Wang Anye does indeed co from a minor Prominent Family of East Qian Country, and only because his family is wealthy were they able to hire a Tribute from the Transcendent Void Realm. The thorny issue isn’t this,” Wei Wentao gave a respectful bow to Wei Dongyu, speaking anxiously, “But today, I received urgent news that the situation with the Tree of Fortune has been reported to True Monarch Wu Dao. Upon learning of it, True Monarch Wu Dao beca furious and has openly stated he will back the Tree of Fortune, demanding our Wei Family pay the consequences. Now, this matter has already spread throughout the Immortal City, greatly affecting our Wei Family’s reputation.”
“What did you say?” Wei Dongyu’s expression froze, his face turning a sudden shade of anger, “That Old Tea Tree stays deep within the Immortal Palace, hardly ever stepping out from the Wu Dao Tea Garden, and is seldom seen by ordinary people. Isn’t that Wang Anye fellow from a minor Prominent Family of East Qian Country? How could he enter the Immortal Palace, let alone et the Wu Dao Tea Tree?”
“It wasn’t him,” Wei Wentao shook his head, “I’ve had people watching Wang Anye the whole ti. He’s currently still at the Ji Family, and he hasn’t left. Besides, it’s been less than two months since the Tree of Fortune was taken, the speed at which the situation has escalated and spread is too fast. There must be soone behind this stirring the pot.”
“And the one controlling all this must have an enormous network and influence within the Immortal Dynasty. This isn’t sothing a minor Prominent Family from East Qian Country could achieve.”
“Enough, enough, stop talking about these useless things,” Wei Dongyu waved his hand impatiently, then put on his clothes and began pacing the room anxiously, “That Old Tea Tree is not only powerful but also has a wide network. In the Immortal Dynasty, his influence is trendous. If he’s determined to oppose us, the consequences are unpredictable. Moreover, with his protection, it might be difficult to retrieve the Tree of Fortune.”
“Yes…”
Wei Wentao nodded helplessly.
What he worried about was exactly this, “Furthermore, True Monarch Wu Dao has declared that we must compensate for the Tree of Fortune with one billion Immortal Crystals to cover the losses, otherwise…”
“One billion Immortal Crystals?!” Wei Dongyu stared in disbelief, “Why doesn’t he just rob us?! Impossible! Absolutely impossible!”
With a pained expression, Wei Wentao said, “But True Monarch Wu Dao has stated that if we don’t agree, he will move into our house, consu the Spiritual Energy of our Spirit Veins, drink from our Spiritual Spring, and stay for a thousand years…”
“…Damn it!”
Wei Dongyu cursed aloud, his face changing rapidly with anger.
With the Wei Family’s current financial situation, maintaining two at the Early Stage of the Void Realm was certainly more than manageable, adding another one at the Early Stage of the Void Realm would still be barely sustainable, but if it was soone at the Peak of the Transcendent Void Realm, that would be asking for a death sentence.
If that Old Tea Tree really took root in their family’s Spirit Veins, he feared it would suck all the Spiritual Energy dry, leaving no chance for the others to cultivate.
If he truly lingered in the Wei Family for a thousand years, the losses would definitely exceed one billion Immortal Crystals!
The most vexing part was that the Old Tea Tree had reached the Peak Level Twelve, they couldn’t defeat him, and it was uncertain if they could even drive him away!
It seed, this ti, they could only swallow the bitter pill. The Tree of Fortune was dood to be lost.
“Shaless! Despicable! No dignity!”
Wei Dongyu was fuming with curses.
“Old Ancestor, in my opinion, if there really is no other way, we should just compensate with money. It’s better to spend money to resolve this disaster than to let the situation escalate further,” Wei Wentao also had no choice but to advise with a pained face, “Our family has stockpiled a large amount of Xuan Iron, right? We just need to sell so off…”
