2996 The Man and the Turtle

Contributing to the birth of seven or eight children was quite a challenge for Zhao Manyan. However, getting seven or eight wives would be a simple task.

Tell me about yourself. What have you been doing in the last few years? said Bai Miaoying.

Ill pick the most exciting stories to tell you!

I dont want to learn about your promiscuous life! Bai Miaoying said gruffly.

No! I am talking about heroic stories about saving people and maintaining peace in the world! said Zhao Manyan.

Are you sure you did all that? Bai Miaoying raised one of her eyebrows and looked at him skeptically.

They sat there and chatted for a very long time. Zhao Manyan noticed Bai Miaoying was so tired that she squinted her eyes while talking. Even so, she, like a child, refused to go to bed. She insisted on waiting for him to finish his story.

Zhao Manyan helped her into the house and handed her over to the nurse.

Ill be in Venice for a while. I will come over to visit you. Go to bed now and get well soon, said Zhao Manyan to Bai Miaoying.

Im not sick. All I have is that sorrow in my heart. Ive finally gotten rid of that and have even gotten back my son said Bai Miaoying.

Well, you hardly have the strength to talk. Go and take a rest first. I still have something I need to do, said Zhao Manyan.

What is it that you need to do? Bai Miaoying asked firmly as though she would refuse to rest if he didnt answer her last question.

A friend of mine is in big trouble. He might need the help of our familys influence in the international arena, said Zhao Manyan.

So, are you coming back to the family?

Yes. I didnt master the magical skills, so I must come back to inherit our family business, said Zhao Manyan.

But your older brother

Its fine. Ill talk with Youqian. Hes my biological brother. We should support each other, said Zhao Manyan.

Bai Miaoying nodded. Even though she believed Zhao Youqian was not easy to communicate with, they were, after all, biological brothers. They would sit down and talk things through. It wouldnt matter who inherited the family business.

Zhao Manyan walked down along the sycamore forest path. He was about to leave the sanatorium when a man in a cyan-patterned formal suit appeared in his path. He stared at Zhao Manyan with his razor-sharp gaze.

Zhao Manyan did not look surprised when he saw the man. He walked toward him.

I heard your conversation, said the man in a cyan-patterned formal suit in a low voice.

This is the difference between you and me. Of course, the main point is I dont want Mother to live in pain because of the things you did. Father has passed away, and she is already very sad about it. I know she expects you to be innocent from the bottom of her heart. Besides, youve been behaving well before her. I dont want to ruin her impressions of you, said Zhao Manyan calmly.

Youre indeed my good younger brother. Youre very considerate. Since you defended me this time, I wont kill you. If you promise to live the life of a scum and never get involved in the family affairs, I can guarantee that you can live in peace away from here. Zhao Youqian walked out of the forest. A group of people in dark golden monastery robes appeared behind him.

The people in monastery robes had their foreheads covered by the brim of their hats. They were masked in breathable gauze. It was clear that they did not want Zhao Manyan to see their faces.

But they had imposing auras. The forest was dead silent. There was not even a single chirping sound from the birds or insects. Even the air turned so cold that it was about to freeze everything!

They were a group of top-notched experts!

If this were the past, I would have given you all the things that father left for us. But I wont do that anymore. I need the power of the Venice Chamber of Commerce, said Zhao Manyan.

You leave me no choice, then. I will cripple you first before sending you to a mental hospital with a nice environment, said Zhao Youqian.

That was exactly what I wanted to do to you. However, considering that doing that will raise our mothers suspicion, I decided to forgive you temporarily. Everything you did was insane and heartless. It resulted in two outcomes: Im not dead yet; second, father passed away by his own choice. Based on these factors, we can still stay together as a family. We can, at the least, pretend to be one for our mothers sake, said Zhao Manyan.

I dont need your forgiveness. Im the one who is in control of the situation. You should beg me. I can spare your life for mothers sake, Zhao Youqian said ruthlessly.

I dont care what you feel about me. Its up to me how I want to treat both of us. Anyway, you guys can lock Zhao Youqian up and throw him into the water prison to calm him down. Let him think clearly about who is in control of the situation now, said Zhao Manyan as he snapped his fingers.

Zhao Youqian was stunned. He thought Zhao Manyan had brought along many experts with him. However, he soon found out that Zhao Manyan was not talking to himself.

Youre still using such childish tricks Zhao Youqian was about to mock him when he felt someone grab his arms from behind.

Ahh!

Before Zhao Youqian recovered his senses, two people had twisted his arms upward behind his back. His joints were about to break. Zhao Youqian gritted his teeth in pain!

What are you doing?! Zhao Youqian turned around and realized that the people in dark golden monastery robes were the ones grabbing his arms.

What was going on? Are they under Zhao Manyans spell?

Youve been in close contact with the Killer Palace. Ive dug out the background of the pair who struck me in Venice last time. Zhao Manyan approached Zhao Youqian.

Another two people in golden dark monastery robes walked to Zhao Manyans back and stood behind him respectfully. They bowed to Zhao Manyan.

Thats impossible. How can they pledge their loyalty to you? They Zhao Youqian was both shocked and furious. He had spent a lot of money training the Guardian Mages.

Simple. If they refuse to pledge their loyalty to me, they must die. You assume they will do anything for money including sacrificing themselves. You assume they wont betray you if you can pay them a handsome sum of money. The truth is, compared to their lives, they dont give a sh*t about how much money you give them, said Zhao Manyan.

How shameless of you to even call yourself the guardians of the Killer Palace! Zhao Youqian cursed at them.

The guardians of the Killer Palace stood there in silence.

The Killer Palace had its own rules: dignity, and religion. Unfortunately, none of these were worth mentioning when they came to face a scornful Black Totem Turtle that was as big as an island.

They had seen the massive thing with their own eyes. It lunged at them like a black mountain range emerging from the middle of the sea. It was a terrifying creature that was almost certainly close to, if not already an emperor-level creature!

When the blonde man and his turtle appeared inside the hidden monastery, the Killer Palace, no one dared to go against him.
