Chapter 401: Ye Fengyun’s Decision

It has to be said, compared to his Master who only cared about chicken legs and was clueless about worldly affairs, Ye Fengyun’s judgement was much better. He even vaguely guessed the relationship between Mu Hanyan and Nanyan Chamber of Commerce.

"Is this approach useful?" Yuan Tianbo asked skeptically.

As for Ye Fengyun’s conjecture, he didn’t find it strange. For playboys like Mu Hanyan with strong backgrounds, there were plenty who intimidated and dominated the market. It was quite normal for the Nanyan Chamber of Commerce to win him over by offering him benefits.

However, was suppressing the Nanyan Chamber of Commerce truly going to affect Mu Hanyan? He didn’t quite understand. At most, it might cause him to lose some face, but that seemed to have no real impact.

"With your current strength, you probably don’t understand yet. As Swordsmen cultivate further, their need for cultivation resources becomes immensely huge—even the Mu Family in Heishi City might not be able to cope with it.

Mu Hanyan’s current strength is quite commendable, and the strengths of the two guards by his side are also growing stronger. In the future, their demand for cultivation resources will naturally increase.

If we let the Nanyan Chamber of Commerce continue to grow, it really might become a force to be reckoned with.

But if we suppress the Nanyan Chamber now, Mu Hanyan will lose his financial support. With just his little allowance, let alone himself, he won’t even be able to provide for the cultivation resources needed by his two personal guards. Sooner or later, they will abandon him with disillusionment and disenchantment. By then, would he still have the privilege to be arrogant?" Ye Fengyun explained.

"So that’s how it is. I understand now. Then we must go all out and bring down the Nanyan Chamber of Commerce first," Yuan Tianbo realized suddenly, excitedly said.

Although he didn’t know to what extent the cultivation resources needed by Swordsmen later on were immense, he still understood the principle that if you want a horse to run, you must feed it grass. Take him, for example—he spent quite a bit of money on maintaining his group of henchmen, even hesitating to hire those with high capabilities because he couldn’t afford it.

The Mu Family had many branches and numerous descendants. It was said that the Great Elder was extremely strict with money. If Mu Hanyan lost his financial sources, supporting two distinguished Eighth Rank Swordsmen would indeed not be an easy task.

Ye Fengyun nodded. Actually, his initial intention was just to teach the Nanyan Chamber of Commerce a lesson so that they would recognize their difficulties and retire early, honestly conducting their business without aimlessly trying to soar to new heights on the coattails of Long Yan Academy, lest it tarnish his Master’s reputation in the future. However, events had led him to vaguely guess the relationship between Mu Hanyan and Nanyan Chamber of Commerce.

Initially indifferent towards Mu Hanyan and then irreconcilably at odds, Ye Fengyun, convinced that he had witnessed Mu Hanyan’s obstinate and unruly nature, was even more worried: his respectable Master endlessly praised Mu Hanyan and even had thoughts of admitting him to the academy last time, but refrained due to regulations.

With Mu Hanyan’s despicable nature, who knew how much more cunning and vicious he would become in a few years? By then, with his Master’s straightforward nature, he would most likely be deceived by Mu Hanyan, possibly leading to severe mistakes.

No! Ye Fengyun made up his mind. He must suppress the Nanyan Chamber of Commerce thoroughly and quell Mu Hanyan’s arrogance as well, never allowing him a chance to rise to power.

At this moment, Mu Hanyan, of course, was unaware that Ye Fengyun’s prejudice and wariness against her were so deep. However, even if she knew, she probably wouldn’t take it to heart.

What she was more concerned about now were the strengths of Huayue and Zirong. No matter how much she thought, she couldn’t figure out the reason for their rapid improvement in strength over just a few days.

"Don’t look at us like that. We don’t know why it happened either," Huayue, feeling uncomfortable under Mu Hanyan’s curious gaze, spread her hands and said.
