Translator: Vesper

  Ning Meng Yao supported her chin with one hand, while looking at the man’s frowning look: “I am sure deep in your heart, you know whether or not I could do it.”


  The man finally sighed, “What do you want?”


  The smile on Ning Meng Yao’s face became even bigger, and she looked at the man with admiration. He was indeed a man who knew when to take action.

  “I just want to destroy the Imperial Merchant, it is that simple.” Ning Meng Yao looked straight into the man’s eyes, her red lips opened slightly as she spoke.

  There was a flash in the man’s eyes, then he shook his head: “You cannot do that.”


  “You do not have a say on whether or not I can or it.” Ning Meng Yao shook her head, looking at the man with confidence.

  The only option was whether or not she wanted to do it, and not, whether she could do it or not.

  The man fell into silence for an instant, unsure what to do.

  “The Imperial Merchant of Ling Country seemed to have controlled only one-fifth of the economy of the Ling Country. But in actual fact, there are several other countries involved. If you want to destroy it, it is easier said than done.” The man continued to speak plainly, as if all of this had nothing to do with him.

  Ning Meng Yao looked at the person in front of her differently, and smiled, “Of course, I know that.”


  “Then……”


  “If it wasn’t for you all to touch something you all shouldn’t have, I would not have done anything to Ling Country’s Imperial Merchant.” Ning Meng Yao said seriously to the man.

  The man squinted at Ning Meng Yao, and the thought of someone suddenly came into his mind: “You are Ning Meng Yao, the master of Tong Bao Zhai?”


  “How can you be so sure?” Ning Meng Yao was not embarrassed to be recognized, instead she looked at the man with a smile, she was very interested in knowing how he guessed it.

  The man lowered his head and said, “I cannot think of anyone else who can say such things except Tong Bao Zhai.”


  It was indeed true that as long as Tong Bao Zhai wanted to do it, they could destroy several merchants, let alone only one Imperial Merchant.

  Suddenly, the man looked forward to seeing the downfall.

  “How do you want me to help you?” There was finally a different smile on the man’s cold face.

  Ning Meng Yao nodded with satisfaction: “Very good. In fact, I do not want you to do anything. I just want to tell you something about your restaurant. Do you have any magical grass?”


  “Yes, but not much.”


  Every supervisor under the Imperial Merchant had this thing. He was in charge of the restaurant, so naturally he had much more than the others.

  “We want that.”


  “Sure.” The man got up and went behind the screen. When he came out again, he held a palm-sized box in his hand.

  Looking at the brocade box in his hand, Ning Meng Yao said unexpectedly, “Are you not worried that we would take this and run away?”


  “No.” The man shook his head.

  Ning Meng Yao looked at the man boringly, then leaned on Qiao Tian Chang’s arms, and said in a depressed tone, “Tian Chang, this man is no fun at all.”


  “I can see that.” This person must have long been tortured by Miaojiang’s Gu Worms that he no longer had feelings anymore.

  He could help them this time might be because he wanted to be freed from the control, if not, their task would not be so easy.

  The man’s eyes were wide open, how could they say this in front of him?

  Ning Meng Yao glanced at the man and looked at Nan Yu: “Go and help him with the Gu Worms.”


  Nan Yu walked over, and grabbed his wrist, then Ning Meng Yao saw his forehead turning blue, and his pale face ached in pain.

  Nan Yu loosened the man’s wrist. “Desire” was clearly written on the expression on his face.

  “The Gu Worms in his body is a real treasure.” And it had a great effect on the Gu King.

  Ning Meng Yao jumped, she rubbed her forehead, “Nan Yu, calm down.” Was this man still the same cold man like he used to be? Why did she feel that he had changed completely?

  Nan Yu reached out and touched his nose shyly: “I understand, sister-in-law.”


  Qiao Tian Chang patted Ning Meng Yao: “If it could make Nan Yu act like this, I guess that the Gu Worm in that man is really rare.”


  Ning Meng Yao rubbed her arms and muttered dissatisfied, “That is to him.” Majority of people would not like it.

  Qiao Tian Chang’s lips twitched slightly. “You are right.”


  “Can you take it out?” The man’s voice trembled a little. If they could take it out, he was willing to give them his life.

  Nan Yu nodded: “Of course, but are you sure that you want to take it out now?”
