Chapter 695: Young Leader Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios As Qi Wangyang heard what Qi Haitao said, he remained mostly emotionless. However, when he heard Qi Haitao talking about changing the business model, Qi Wangyang furrowed his brows. When Qi Haitao spoke about transitioning to an elite faction, a terrifying glint of ambition flashed across his eyes. He stroked his beard and fell deep into thought. Every veteran faction dreamed of becoming an elite faction. 𝑓𝑟𝑒𝘦𝓌𝑒𝑏𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝘭.𝒸𝘰𝑚 Moreover, the Sea Bliss Clan did not have such potential. However, when he heard his son say so, Qi Wangyang agreed that this possibility existed. Qi Haitao was young and thus fearless.. As the head of the Sea Bliss Clan, Qi Wangyang better understood how scary elite factions were. If the Sea Bliss Clan went to the Spirit Guards to mess with Connected Beast Park but failed to become an elite faction, they would have to constantly be on guard against Connected Beast Park in the future. After much contemplation, Qi Wangyang said, “Haitao, you should take Feng Qi along with you and personally connect with Sky City. See if you can seal the deal as soon as possible. Let’s set the business with the Miao family’s Connected Beast Park aside first. We’ll tend to it after we’ve successfully completed the first transaction with Sky City. If our partnership with Sky City will really allow us to boost our level, it won’t be too late to use Connected Beast Park to foot the bill for our change in business model.” When he heard what his father said, Qi Haitao knew that Qi Wangyang agreed with his idea. However, Qi Wangyang had always proceeded with caution, and it took a lot for him to stand in opposition to Connected Beast Park. Qi Wangyang stood up and walked over to the kneeling Feng Qi. He helped Feng Qi up and comforted him. Feng Qi felt like he had just ridden a roller coaster. He had experienced so many highs and lows in the span of a day, and it was pushing his heart to its limit. As he looked at Qi Wangyang, who was comforting him gently, Feng Qi felt extremely frightened. Unpredictable mood swings were much scarier than sternness. … When Lin Yuan completed his deals with Wang Fuxiang and Screw Nerds But I’m Not a Failure, he left the group chat. His purpose had been fulfilled. Before he left, Lin Yuan paused to think before releasing another group proclamation. Group Proclamation: “Group members, from now on, no one is allowed to reveal any information about group welfare auctions to non-group members. Anyone who is found doing so will be immediately kicked out of the group.” After sending the group proclamation, Lin Yuan immediately went to his private faction territory. Lin Yuan also implemented access limitations in his private faction territory. People or factions who had not received an invitation from Sky City would only be allowed in Sky City every day between 8:00 a.m and 10:00 a.m during the time when they could compete for Fate Letters. During any other time, the private faction territory would not be open to outsiders. Now, Sky City had announced its role. Given how much others discussed about it, it would definitely attract a lot of visitors. Lin Yuan did not care about rankings like the Visitor’s Ranking. After all that happened to Sky City’s private faction territory today, seeing that it got between the conflict of two top factions, Sky City had surely secured its position on the Popularity Ranking. Wen Yu had not returned yet. There were not many people who usually managed Sky City’s private faction territory. Moreover, Sky City had a mysterious style, and Lin Yuan did not want Sky City’s exterior to become as crowded as a market. Lin Yuan had sent such a serious proclamation in the group chat because he knew that he had appeared in the Purchase With No Loss store wearing the strange mask before. When Sky City’s popularity truly exploded, someone devious in the group chat could leak the information. Soon, people would start to guess the connection between the Purchase With No Loss store and Sky City. Luckily, not many members had seen Lin Yuan with the mask on. After today, Lin Yuan did not plan on moving around in the private faction territory. Lin Yuan felt that his alternate identity was safe for the time being. He was not afraid that someone would link Sky City and the Purchase With No Loss store. Even if no one made the connection, Lin Yuan wanted to combine Sky City and the Purchase With No Loss store’s social networks. But the next two months were not a good time because Lin Yuan was still scheming against the Sea Bliss Clan. A faction’s prestige and power did not only rely on the number of resources they possessed. This faction’s prestige would be established after mounds of earth-shattering events, and the Sea Bliss Clan would be the stepping stone. Lin Yuan checked on the private faction territory’s messages and was about to contact the blue-robed Feng Qi he had confirmed the deal with when he realized that Feng Qi had already sent him several messages. Sea Bliss Clan Feng Qi: “Are you there? I want to discuss the deal with Sky City in detail.” Sea Bliss Clan Feng Qi: “The Sea Bliss Clan wants to complete the first transaction as soon as possible. May I ask how many gestating Angelfish of Bliss Sky City can evolve from Flawless to Epic?” Sea Bliss Clan Feng Qi: “If it’s convenient, can we set up a physical location to hold the discussion?” From the messages, Lin Yuan could sense that Feng Qi was very anxious. Otherwise, Feng Qi would not have sent a message every ten minutes in the dead of night. The Sea Bliss Clan’s anxiousness to collaborate with him made Lin Yuan think of the amazonite he wanted to procure from the Sea Bliss Clan. Their initiative saved Lin Yuan the trouble of contacting the Sea Bliss Clan. Lin Yuan replied, “I’m in my faction territory. We can meet now to discuss.” Once Lin Yuan sent the message, Feng Qi replied within milliseconds. Sea Bliss Clan Feng Qi: “Okay! We’re heading over now!” When Lin Yuan saw Feng Qi mention ‘we’, he was stunned. His lips curled. It looked like someone with authority in the Sea Bliss Clan was coming. Lin Yuan received another message from Feng Qi. Sea Bliss Clan Feng Qi: “Our young leader is stuck outside Sky City’s faction territory. Please grant him access.” Lin Yuan immediately allowed the Sea Bliss Clan’s young master in. At the same time, the title ‘young master’ piqued Lin Yuan’s interest. If a faction had many direct descendants, they all had the right to inherit the faction. These direct descendants would be addressed as young master or young mistress. Only a young sole direct descendant like Gao Feng would be honored with being addressed as ‘young leader’. It seemed that the Sea Bliss Clan had a similar circumstance as the Gao family in that they only had one direct descendant. Shortly after, Lin Yuan saw a young man of average height, slitted eyes, and thin lips walking next to the blue-robed Feng Qi. Lin Yuan remained in his seat and did not walk up to greet the Sea Bliss Clan’s young leader. When Qi Haitao saw the over 100 Bronze/Epic fey decorations and Bronze/Legend Oath Lily of the Valley on the table, his eyes lit up.
