Chapter 301: Chapter 301 Meeting Gift

Translator: Doggotranslation

No one knew what the people of Heifengzhai were thinking. Were they too bold? Or they were just too confident. Or maybe there were some ulterior purposes behind it? Anyway, with Zhou Yu’s intelligence, he would not be able to figure it out, so he just gathered everyone to discuss this problem.

Xia Huan was arranged to welcome the people in Heifengzhai. After all, only he was familiar with the interaction between management companies, so he could get more useful information from them.

The Luhua City espionage organization ‘Sky Peeping Mirror’ formed by the king of thieving, expressed his opinion first, “my lord, whether Heifengzhai is sincere or not, the investigation of them must not be omitted. This three-month investigation period is our rule, and everyone must cooperate with the investigation.”

Although Heifengzhai took the initiative to join them, it was still a big organization after all. Not everyone would be determined to break away from a major force. Just like Beidou, people who were willing to join Luhua city were only the Big Dipper Stars, and two core idols, plus a director Lin Daoran, and black magic makeup artist Sato Yuna. In terms of the rest of the employees, they automatically left after Beidou moved out of Starlight city.

This was how it should be.

Then we look at Heifengzhai. They just moved the entire company here. Except for those peripheral workers, none of the main employees had left the company. If all of these people were willing to follow Shang Yue to join Luhua city, then how influential could this person be?

This was not normal, and there was no way the King of Thieves would believe it. He even felt that the three-month investigation period should be extended so that everyone in Heifengzhai could be thoroughly investigated.

Others also had the same view, after all, Heifengzhai was indeed very strange. Beidou was his old partner, so they could be trusted, but they never had any contact with this Heifengzhai before, and the reputations of the management companies from the fallen city were always not good, so it was inevitable that they would be wary of them.

This was also Zhou Yu’s concern. The opposition between the starlight force and the fallen force has been deeply rooted in people’s minds. Although Luhua City would definitely become a chaotic force, this was a fairly new concept. Even the citizens of Luhua City still retained some prejudices against this idea, let alone outsiders.

So if Heifengzhai really joined Luhua city in the future, then mediating the hostility between the two parties may become a major task.

The fallen force still joined Luhua city too soon. If Luhua City was given a little more time to let the fallen idols such as Bai Mo and Lou Baobao appear a few more frequently in front of the general public, and gradually wash away some of the inherent labels of the fallen idols, then it would not be a problem for the fallen force to join Luhua city.

Alas, having many minions was also a problem.

In the end, the result of the discussion was that Zhou Yu could only accept Heifengzhai, but the necessary process must not be omitted. If Heifengzhai refused to be investigated, then there was no need for any negotiation.

The final decision has been made, and then Zhou Yu met with Shang Yue and others in the inner city (Zhou Yu’s bedroom). Xia Huan came to the inner city with Shang Yue, smiling and talking along the way, as if they were best friends that hadn’t seen each other for a very long time. This was somewhat strange. Although Xia Huan did not have any prejudice against anyone from the fallen city, it was not the kind of person who would communicate with the people from the fallen city easily. It seemed that this Shang Yue was indeed a special guy.

“Hahaha, Brother Zhou! Please forgive me for coming uninvited. I don’t want to beat around the bush. With Beidou and Heifengzhai, Luhua city will definitely become the first chaotic force in the ACG world. Whenever I think about that I don’t have to flatter those hypocrites in the fallen city in the future, I feel extremely great. Hahaha!”

Shang Yue was really a friendly guy, but Zhou Yu’s children were still a little scared. All of them were hiding behind his back, watching him from a distance. Only the fallen idols Bai Mo and Lou Baobao did not seem to be scared of Shang Yue, so they were standing next to him.

Shang Yue took a glance at the Bai Mo and suddenly said, “Crossdressing Curse? Old Zhou, why don’t you get rid of this curse? Or did you have this kind of strange hobby?”

He even called Zhou Yu Old Zhou directly and made jokes about it, this relations.h.i.+p has indeed progressed a little bit too fast. However, this curse was really difficult to get rid of. Even the old immortal crane also said that it couldn’t do anything about it. The only advice it gave was to use the holy light to gradually remove it.

“Brother Shang, do you know how to remove it?”

“Of course. The people in the Starlight city area always like to dawdle. It is just a curse, how difficult can it be? Wumo, please remove that curse.”

The Wumo Shang Yue talked about was Lin Wumo, a person who dressed up as an ancient scholar. The first impression he gave to people was very weak, so no one knew how he could remove the curse.

Then Zhou Yu heard Xia Huan introduced quietly on the side, “Peach Blossom Fan – Lin Wumo, one of the top ten fallen youths, was originally a key agent trained by the Qingzhu Academy, the second force of the fallen city. Later, in the process of hunting down Heifengzhai with Divine Sword Pavilion, he met with Shang Yue and formed a profound friends.h.i.+p after a fight, then he joined Heifengzhai.”

While listening to Xia Huan’s introduction, Zhou Yu was watching Lin Wumo’s performance. He saw this Lin Wumo person take out a scroll from his back, and unfolded it, then he held a paintbrush in his other hand and closed his eyes. It made Zhou Yu wonder what he was doing. But soon, his body started to emit a thick black gas and gradually condensed at the tip of the paintbrush, until the paintbrush became completely black as if it was soaked with ink.

“Peach Blossom Painting Style, Splas.h.i.+ng Ink, Ten Biting Tigers.”

With a quiet shout, the ink from the paintbrush turned into the appearance of ten tigers, rus.h.i.+ng towards Bai Mo. The looks of those tigers were so fierce as if they wanted to tear Bai Mo apart, which shocked Zhou Yu completely.

Before Zhou Yu shouted, he saw a wraith suddenly appear on Bai Mo’s body and was immediately besieged by the tigers. And as Lin Wumo shouted again, the Tigers captured the wraith and dragged it into the white scroll. When Zhou Yu looked at the scroll carefully again, he could see that there was an ink landscape painting on it, and the wraith has become the person in the painting, moving everywhere, couldn’t find a way to get out of the painting.

“The Wraith is sealed by my Peach Blossom Painting, and Mr. Bai Mo’s curse has now been removed. But unfortunately, my seal method is relatively violent, it doesn’t count as the proper way of removing the curse, so you won’t get rewards, Mr. Zhou.”

It turned out that such a curse would give out rewards if the grudge of the wraith was relieved, and that was how normal people remove this type of curse. No wonder the old immortal crane could not do anything about it. Luhua city did not have the items that were required to remove the grudge of the wraith. And Lin Wumo’s method was both direct and violent, so of course, he would not be able to get any reward.

Not only did he not get a reward, in order to wors.h.i.+p this wraith painting, Zhou Yu also had to pay 300 Moe coins of incense money, which could be said that he paid a double penalty.

But anyway, it was still worth it to spend some money to eliminate some undesirable conditions. After all, he could not remove Bai Mo’s curse for such a long time. It caused Bai Mo’s mood point to always stay at a very low number, and affect his ability in many ways.

Removing the curse could be considered to be a little gift from Heifengzhai, and then Zhou Yu started the formal discussion with Heifengzhai about the matter regarding them joining Luhua city.
