Chapter 404: Lin Yuan’s Hot Potato

If the Iron Wall Chamber of Commerce did not have any feud with the Listening Heron Chamber of Commerce to the bitter end, it would be a losing deal to spend so much effort to target its online resources.

Since the Iron Wall Chamber of Commerce’s third highest-ranking person was now before them, this was clearly an excellent opportunity to know why.

Lin Yuan glanced at the Mother of Bloodbath that was standing beside him. The Mother of Bloodbath was playing with the Mind-Controlling Silkworm Gu that was struggling violently in its hand, and its fingertips exerted force from time to time.

The Mother of Bloodbath watched the Mind-Controlling Silkworm Gu with interest as it was slowly being on the brink of death.

Upon seeing Lin Yuan look at it, the Mother of Bloodbath said, “This old man is now experiencing the pain of the blade condensed by blood carving into every bone, and he no longer has the slightest possibility of being able to resist!”

Lin Yuan turned to Listen and said, “Why has the Iron Wall Chamber of Commerce been targeting the Listening Heron Chamber of Commerce? I guess you should have a lot of things to ask, right? You might as well ask about it.”

Listen’s expression froze, and then he looked at Lin Yuan with a grateful gaze. Lin Yuan didn’t say anything else. He just gently patted Listen’s shoulder and gave him an affirmative look.

When Listen glanced at Fei Qianqiong, his gaze became sharp, while his expression was becoming gloomier and gloomier.

But during this month or so, it was the Iron Wall Chamber of Commerce’s relentless suppression and harsh attacks that had almost put the Listening Heron Chamber of Commerce on the verge of collapse.

Without Lin Yuan’s support, the Listening Heron Chamber of Commerce would no longer exist in this world when the Iron Wall Chamber of Commerce controlled its online resources three days later.

After receiving Lin Yuan’s encouragement and tacit consent, Listen approached and looked at the struggling Fei Qianqiong at his feet with mixed feelings.

He had countless questions to ask Fei Qianqiong—why did the Iron Wall Chamber of Commerce not let the Listening Heron Chamber of Commerce off and forced it to a dead end? What kind of benefits had the Iron Wall Chamber of Commerce given his uncles that they left Listening Heron Chamber of Commerce without even saying goodbye?

However, all these words were stuck in Listen’s throat when he wanted to ask.

It was now his first time to have a condescending look at someone from the Iron Wall Chamber of Commerce as someone powerful, and this person was the third highest-ranking person.

Listen was not a fool. He knew that the Iron Wall Chamber of Commerce must be scheming against the Listening Heron Chamber of Commerce by treating it this way for this month or so.

No matter how Listen thought about it, he didn’t know what he possessed that made the Iron Wall Chamber of Commerce covet them.

Listen watched Fei Qianqiong struggle for a long time with a cold expression, not uttering a word. When Listen showed a condescending look, Fei Qianqiong’s eyes betrayed his pleading emotions.

At that moment, Listen said coldly, “Fei Qianqiong, do you have anything to say about the Iron Wall Chamber of Commerce?”

Fei Qianqiong was unable to make a sound due to the intense pain, but he nodded vigorously as if in a frenzy.

When he nodded madly, the Mother of Bloodbath’s eyes flashed with a blood-red luster.

At that moment, although Fei Qianqiong was still in pain and could not stand up, he was able to suppress the pain and speak barely.

“I don’t know why the Iron Wall Chamber of Commerce is targeting you. I take orders from the two brothers, Bi Chenghu and Bi Chengxiong.”

As soon as Fei Qianqiong spoke, he heard a peculiar and pleasant voice speaking playfully. “Hehe! Take orders?

“So it seems that you’re just an underling who does what you’re told to do! In this case, you’re no longer useful. The feeling of the blood carved on each bone still seems too light. Why don’t—”

Before the Mother of Bloodbath could finish speaking, Fei Qianqiong’s last trace of mental defense collapsed.

“It’s Young Master Zheng. It’s Young Master Zheng of the Zheng family who’s behind all this.”

When Listen suddenly heard the name Young Master Zheng, he subconsciously asked, “Indigo Azure City’s Zheng family?”

Fei Qianqiong hurriedly nodded. Since he had divulged the matter, he also had no worries.

“Although I don’t know why Young Master Zheng wants to lay his hands on the Listening Heron Chamber of Commerce, this order was issued a month and a half ago.

“Don’t you know exactly why people in Indigo Azure City are targeting the Listening Heron Chamber of Commerce?”

As he spoke, Fei Qianqiong only felt a little aggrieved.

Listen’s eyebrows furrowed.

Lin Yuan couldn’t help but raise his eyebrows.

Young Master Zheng? Zheng family?

Lin Yuan had also been caught up on the information about the large and small factions in the Radiance Federation at Wen Yu’s place during this period.

Although he had finished cramming up on the larger factions, there were simply too many small factions. Thus, he hadn’t had the time to start going through the information.

The information related to the small factions was simply too much. Lin Yuan intended to let Genius write down the information of those small factions. This was no different from him understanding the information.

Although Lin Yuan had only gone through the information of the larger factions, he was aware of the Zheng family.

The Zheng family was one of the three major families in Indigo Azure City that equally shared three parts of the city. It could be said that they were all equally excellent.

The Zheng family was a rich and powerful family and a veteran faction without a deep foundation.

In terms of martial force, all the veteran factions had emperor-class experts. Therefore, Lin Yuan had no advantage compared to the Zheng family in terms of top combat power.

Other than the two top experts, Endless Summer and the Mother of Bloodbath, Lin Yuan didn’t have other powerhouses.

He only had a king-class expert at the moment. And that was Hu Quan!

However, Hu Quan was only good at Spirit Craftsmanship, and his contracted feys were all meant to assist a Spirit Craftsman. If they were really to fight, Hu Quan would not be able to beat Liu Jie.

It could be said that Lin Yuan had weak king-class combat power or not even any.

In terms of resources, although the Zheng family, a family that could preside over a third of Indigo Azure City and was inferior to the Gao family, when Lin Yuan recalled that the Gao family could take out resources like the Island Whale and the Elemental Shellfish, the Zheng family’s foundation became evident from the comparison.

Lin Yuan didn’t expect this hot potato to land in his hands after taking over the Listening Heron Chamber of Commerce.

However, Fei Qianqiong had said that the Zheng family’s Young Master Zheng was behind all this, rather than the Zheng family.

The Zheng family and the Gao family were different, as the Gao family’s only descendant was Gao Feng. It could be said that Gao Feng would be able to have an absolute say in the family after a few decades, but the Zheng family had many descendants.

In the Zheng family’s younger generation were nine fellows that could be called Young Master Zheng, of which there were only three direct descendants.
