Chapter 43: Small Changes in the City
Du Zhe looked at Lu Piao as if he were a fool, well, he actually was.
"What did you expect, you're on a mission," Du Zhe reproached.
"And if we say we didn't find the treasure and one of us eats that flower," Zhang Ming on the side suddenly had an idea.
"The boss has the means to take you to another world to do jobs and establish relationships, do you think he doesn't have the means to know if we achieved the objective or not?" Nie Li's statement suddenly surprised Du Zhe, making him give a thumbs up.
"Nie Li is right, although he didn't clarify this, I also don't want to find out what would happen if we try it," Du Zhe said.
"Well, okay, we'll be honest then. When we set out, that reward is quite juicy," Lu Piao stopped thinking about it for his and his friends' sake and went for the safe option.
"After the auction, there's also another problem," Du Zhe suddenly remembered another inconvenience.
"What is it?" Nie Li asked curiously.
"Shen Yue and his cronies also took the same mission," Du Zhe hesitated a bit before saying.
"What! Shit!" Lu Piao felt his blood boil with anger.
"That bastard, clearly not lacking in money, is trying to screw us over. How I hate him," Lu Piao continued cursing.
"He has three Silver rank and two 5-star Bronze rank at his disposal, counting Shen Yue, who is in the second star of the Silver rank. He's an opponent to be reckoned with," Nie Li analyzed.
"Yes, it will be quite exciting," Du Zhe had to admit that he would like to compete against Shen Yue.
The current Shen Yue is very different from the previous one.
Although he was still as intense and malicious as ever, he now thought before acting recklessly.
What surprised him the most was the technique shown by the other party.
He had come out of his dormitory in the early hours of the morning to practice as usual when he saw something dazzling.
Hellfire was spewing out of Shen Yue's mouth.
It would have been quite epic if he didn't faint after doing that technique.
It was quite fun to see him fall unconscious due to lack of spiritual power.
"When do you all plan to return to class?"
Suddenly they heard an angry voice.
"Ah, teacher Shen Xiu, right now," everyone was quite respectful to Shen Xiu.
Today, who in all of Glory City didn't know that Cao Fenguan was fucking this beautiful fierce specimen.
Even Ye Zhong and Ye Xiu acted respectfully every time they encountered her in the store.
Not even her brother Shen Hong received this kind of respect from Ye Zhong and the Viento Nevado family.
...
Back to Ye Mo
He didn't know how many times he had been surprised by the changes in Glory City.
For some reason, the commoners wore quite strange clothes, especially the women, who wore clothes that in his antiquated mind were considered indecent.
He even saw many libertine nobles with dark glasses on their faces.
He wondered if there was some kind of disease that left you blind.
But leaving that aside, the most surprising thing was undoubtedly the cultivation of children.
He was speechless when he saw several groups of 6-7-year-old children in the Silver rank.
God, what had happened to his city in the time he was away.
Inconsistently, his steps quickened, without alarming anyone.
Heading towards the Viento Nevado Mansion.
But on his way, he had to dodge several giant fireballs from some mischievous children.
Followed by an exclamation.
"Katon* Gokakyo no Jutsu"
He saw many children training with each other, and from this training, this impressive technique stood out.
Which he couldn't identify.
He had never seen this type of technique without the need to merge with your Spirit Demon or bring out the power of the law.
...
Viento Nevado Mansion.
"What happened? It wasn't this impressive the last time I was here," Ye Mo thought to himself, impressed by the luxurious mansion in front of him.
In the past ten days, the Snow Wind Family had made a lot of money at the expense of Cao Fenguan's various businesses. They had become extremely popular in Gloria City, loved by everyone, especially the commoners, for the new things Cao Fenguan had brought.
Many commoners didn't like buying from the same stores as the arrogant nobles from different families. But Cao Fenguan not only opened an exclusive shopping center for them, he opened an entire commercial street where only commoners could enjoy discounts when buying something. Nobles didn't have this privilege, making the commoners extremely happy.
Many nobles complained, but with the bribe of a mansion renovation for the city lord, which Ye Zhong found quite attractive, they had no choice but to keep quiet forever.
The new luxurious Snow Wind Mansion was now worthy of being the residence of the city lord. Though Ye Zhong didn't care about this, he had to admit that his image in the hearts of the residents would become stronger and more stable with this renovation.
What he didn't know was that they didn't really care. The new mansion was still located in the heart of Gloria City, surrounded by a well-maintained garden and a large stone wall that protected it from the outside. The main entrance was made of white marble and led to a large lobby with high ceilings and elegant golden columns. From there, visitors could admire an impressive view of the grand staircase leading to the upper floors.
To the left of the lobby was a luxurious living room with finely carved furniture and a huge crystal chandelier hanging from the ceiling. The mansion had numerous rooms, each decorated with a different theme and luxurious furniture. The main bedroom where Ye Zhong resided was a large suite with a four-poster bed and a large window overlooking the garden. There was also a private bathroom with a marble bath and a rain shower.
At the back of the mansion, there was a large pool with crystal clear water and a spacious sun terrace. There was also a tennis court, a rose garden, and a fruit and vegetable garden.
Ye Zhong didn't know that a house could be so lucrative and beautiful at the same time. Although all of this was at his daughter's request, he had to admit that it suited her taste.
This was the main mansion where the City Lord's Family resided, surrounded by a complex of small mansions occupied by other members of his family. Ye Ziyun was also generous to the members of her family, and although they didn't live at her level, they could enjoy a large pool and a golf course.
...
Ye Mo stopped to admire the wonderful view in front of him. Now his mansion deserved to be the residence of the leaders of Gloria City. "I wonder how much all of this cost," Ye Mo murmured before entering through the main door.
Ye Zhong was in his new office looking at reports from the Dark Guild when he felt a familiar and powerful aura. "Oh... Father's back," he said a little surprised. Then he put everything he had in his hands aside and stood up to greet his father, who should be quite surprised.
As he left the office, he found his father admiring the living room. "Father," Ye Zhong said with joy. Although he was already older, he still felt happy that his father was alive. He was the true pillar of Gloria City. As long as he remained standing, Gloria City could continue to stand and fight against threats.
Ye Mo looked at his son with a penetrating gaze. "I want you to explain to me what has happened in all the time I was away," he said.
Ye Zhong put on a tired face upon hearing this. He hadn't slept for a whole day, reading information about the Dark Guild that he managed to extract from Cao Fenguan, and now his father had decided to come back. This meant another day without being able to sleep.
