Miao Zhenshan spoke slowly and softly, but Zheng Kaiyuan knew that Miao Zhenshan had just given him an ultimatum.

Zheng Kaiyuan was smart enough to read in-between the lines.

He had tried to scheme over the call because he was desperate to find a way to save himself.

"Grandfather, don't worry. I'll definitely speak up for Brother Zhuo in front of Lord Lin Yuan and try to find opportunities for Brother He to speak with Lord Lin Yuan," promised Zheng Kaiyuan.

Miao Zhenshan did not respond.

Miao Qi sighed and said, "Kaiyuan, I've been teaching you the way of the Creation Master since you were young. You've always been smart, so I trust you know how much trouble you've caused this time. You should act appropriately at such a time and make sure not to cause any more issues."

Zheng Kaiyuan nodded obediently, but his fist clenched tightly under his sleeve.

Although Zheng Kaiyuan had agreed, he knew that if Miao He became close to Lin Yuan and he became unable to be the only link between the Miao family and Lin Yuan, it was not unlikely that his life would end the moment he returned to the Miao family.

Zheng Kaiyuan, Miao He, Miao Zhuo, and Miao Qi rode the Miao family's signature UFO Nine Lanterns carriage and headed toward the Return from Faraway Mansion.

Ever since the Guard Ye Banquet, the Miao family had been traveling on a downward trajectory ever since Miao Zhuo offended the Moon Empress and Chief Guard Ye's disciples and Miao Qi insulted Wang Fuxiang.

Now, after losing two thearch-class experts, they had well and truly become the laughingstock of the Radiance Federation.

The Miao family was using the UFO Nine Lanterns Carriage because they wanted to regain some of their dignity.

After all, they had to be of a certain capability to be invited to visit the Moon Empress' disciple.

Moreover, they also wanted to prove that Connected Beast Park and the Moon Empress' disciple were not on such bad terms.

Soon, Connected Beast Park's UFO Nine Lanterns carriage arrived at the Return from Faraway Mansion entrance.

When the Cage of Brahma Insects had come to visit, Lin Yuan had instructed Wen Yu to lead them into the mansion.

This time, Zheng Kaiyuan, Miao He, Miao Zhuo, and Miao Qi waited for some time before a Spirit Craftsman came to tell them that they were allowed to enter.

The Miao family had been keeping tabs on the Return from Faraway Mansion and knew that a young girl had ushered the visitors from the Cage of Brahma Insects.

By comparison, it was clear that Lin Yuan did not feel as close with them.

This made them suspicious of Zheng Kaiyuan and Lin Yuan's relationship.

They waited by the door for a few minutes before a tea-drinking Lin Yuan slowly drawled, "Enter."

However, Lin Yuan did not make any moves after the four of them entered the mansion and left them standing awkwardly.

They would not dare to sit before Lin Yuan gave them permission to.

From the moment Miao Zhuo saw Lin Yuan, he was reminded of how Liu Jie had attacked him, had his soul suppressed, and his roots ruined by Zuo Ming at the Guard Ye Banquet.

The claw of fear gripped his heart.

If Miao Qi had not patted him on his back and enabled him to muster up his courage, he would have started trembling.

When they were outside the Return from Faraway Mansion, Miao Qi, Miao Zhuo, and Miao He had become suspicious of the relationship between Lin Yuan and Zheng Kaiyuan.

Now, their suspicion grew stronger.

If Zheng Kaiyuan and Lin Yuan were truly friends, he would have immediately allowed Zheng Kaiyuan even if he did not ask why Zheng Kaiyuan had lost his legs during the blood pact ultimate fight.

Miao He resented Zheng Kaiyuan and was only carrying him to make a good impression on Lin Yuan, who was supposedly friends with Zheng Kaiyuan.

But now, Lin Yuan's nonchalance made Miao He regret not telling Miao Zhuo to carry Zheng Kaiyuan instead.

Miao Qi had also been shooting Zheng Kaiyuan looks to push him to say something first.

Zheng Kaiyuan was surprised by Lin Yuan's attitude toward him and hastily said, "Lord Lin Yuan, long time no see."

Lin Yuan pointed at the water rhinoceros leather sofa and said, "Sit."

Once the four of them were seated, Lin Yuan went back to his silence.

Miao He rolled his eyes and said, "Lord Lin Yuan, do you still remember that we met at the Spirit Food Pavilion? I really had no idea that that group had offended your friend. I've handled the situation and meted out punishment to the Cai family so as to make it up to your friend."

Miao He was not certain that Lin Yuan did not care much for Zheng Kaiyuan and that they were not as close as he had boasted to the Miao family.

He would have to go back and report this finding to his grandfather so that his grandfather would finally give up on Zheng Kaiyuan, and he would finally be able to deal with Zheng Kaiyuan as he saw fit.

Miao Qi shot Miao He an approving look.

Zheng Kaiyuan was still pale with shock over Lin Yuan's attitude toward him, and he did not understand what he had done to make Lin Yuan upset.

Zheng Kaiyuan anxiously said, "If those people had not wanted to hold a banquet for Brother He, your friend wouldn't have been hurt. But regardless, Brother He had shown mercy to his friend. Although Cai Qing is practically a zombie, she's still alive."

Miao Qi and Miao He's expressions turned austere.

If Lin Yuan were not present, Miao He would have sent Zheng Kaiyuan another flying kick.

Miao Qi also forcefully pinched Zheng Kaiyuan's back to warn him not to misspeak.

Lin Yuan noticed Miao He's unnatural expression and murmured, "Kaiyuan is right. If they hadn't wanted to hold a banquet in your honor, my friend wouldn't have been injured."
