Miracle Throne

Chapter 239: The appearance of the Source Energy Weapons!

Of the main shareholders of Miracle Commerce, Chu Tian owned 70% of the stocks, giving him the ruling position. The Meng sisters had some stocks as well as Nangong Yun. Although Nangong Yun did not have much stocks, she was still a very important member. The earlier one joined, the harder it was for those that joined after to catch up.

Because she had developed with Miracle Commerce, Nangong Yun’s worth and position was also quite high.

Because Miracle Commerce shared benefits with the Nangong Family, the Divine Wind Marquis thought that if a member of the Nangong Family came, the situation would become better. Who would have known that this wasn’t the case.

“How bold! You actually dare speak to me like this!” Nangong Zhi angrily slammed the table, “There are countless people that dream of entering the Nangong Family, don’t you know how big of a gift a foreign minister position is! Moreover, the Flame Departing Marquis has also promised that as long as you work for the Nangong Family for ten years, you will immediately become a minister. Do you know how few ministers the Nangong Family has had in the past! What qualifications do you have to still be unsatisfied?”

“Foreign minister, minister?” Chu Tian gave a cold laugh, “I’m very sorry, not to mention the promise of a trivial Flame Departing Marquis, even if you brought the promise of the Burning Sun Ruler, I still wouldn’t trade Miracle Commerce!”

“How bold!” Flames appeared in the air as they enveloped Nangong Zhi, “Daring to insult the ruler, I’ll cripple you first!”

“Cripple me?” Chu Tian coldly ordered, “Chen Bingyu, cripple him for me!”

Even if Nangong Zhi was a True Soul Realm expert, he was only in the 7th Awakened Soul Layer. He could only compete with Old Fifth Yu, so how could he be a match for Chen Bingyu?

“Wait a minute!”

The Divine Wind Marquis wanted to stop this bad situation.

It was too late because Chen Bingyu appeared faster than he expected. Several snowflakes appeared with a wave of her hand. The Divine Wind Marquis blocked half of it, but the other half slammed into Nangong Zhi.

“Ah!”

Nangong Zhi gave a pitiful cry. The delicate and weak snowflakes fell onto Nangong Zhi and a strong cold power instantly filled his meridians before shattering them.

Pu!

Nangong Zhi spat out a mouthful of blood that had ice shards in it. He fell to the ground with a pale face, as an expression filled with fear and regret covered his face.

It’s over!

This girl had destroyed his meridians and had wasted his cultivation!

Chen Bingyu was not weak, but she wasn’t this strong, unless Chen Bingyu had suddenly encountered a breakthrough.

The Divine Wind Marquis looked at Chen Bingyu with an astonished look. When he sensed the aura Chen Bingyu released, the Divine Wind Marquis revealed a shocked expression.

She really broke through!

Chen Bingyu was currently in the 9th Awakened Soul Layer!

Other than the Eight Southern Summer Marquises and above, it was hard to find an expert that could pressure her. Chen Bingyu had become one of the strongest battle strength under the Eight Marquises!

“You didn’t even investigate how the three great families were eliminated and you want to waste me?” Chu Tian walked forward to trample Nangong Zhi and poured a cup of wine into his face, “Trash, listen well, help me bring some words back to the Flame Departing Marquis. Those that dare try to meddle in the affairs of my Miracle Commerce, this is your ending!”

Nangong Zhi declared in a panicked voice, “You are declaring war on the Nangong Family!”

“Declaring war against the Nangong Family?” Chen Bingyu coldly looked at Nangong Zhi and said, “Can you represent the Nangong Family?”

Nangong Zhi looked at this woman and his body suddenly trembled, “You….You are Chen Bingyu!”

Chen Bingyu was covered in a black gauze and didn’t like to talk, so Nangong Zhi completely ignored her since she was following Chu Tian like a bodyguard. At this moment, Nangong Zhi finally recognized this person’s identity.

Chen Bingyu actually had a deep connection with the Nangong Family.

Chen Bingyu became a retainer of the Nangong Family when she was in her teens before being promoted to guest official, and finally becoming a foreign minister. She didn’t have a low position in the Nangong Family and because she had reached a bottleneck, Chen Bingyu applied to leave the Nangong Family to find a way to break through.

At that time, the Burning Sun Ruler had personally given approval for this!

The Burning Sun Ruler had a favourable view of Chen Bingyu’s innate talent and assumed that her future achievements would not be below his. The Nangong Family’s cultivation style differed from Chen Bingyu’s and if he forcefully made her stay, it would hurt her growth.

The Burning Sun Ruler did not want to see this super talent disappear.

After Chen Bingyu left the Nangong Family, she wandered around several years without any gains, making no progress with her cultivation. When she met the Divine Wind Marquis in the Central State, she was a bit dejected. Because she was friends with the Divine Wind Marquis, she agreed to the Divine Wind Marquis’ request and became a vice principal of Central State Academy.

Chen Bingyu had a deep connection with the Nangong Family. If she hadn’t taken the initiative to leave, she would have been promoted to the minister position which was higher than the senior elder position!

From her attack earlier, this woman had already broken through her bottleneck and was already much stronger than before!

For such a proud person, how could she become Chu Tian’s subordinate!

Impossible!

This was impossible!

“Chen Bingyu, the Nangong Family hasn’t treated you unfairly, but you treat the Nangong Family like this!”

“Nangong Yun, as a member of the Nangong Family, you’re working with an outsider to go against the family! This is simply rebelling against the clan!”

“How loud!” Chu Tian impatiently waved his hand, “Beat this piece of trash and throw him out!”

Several members of Miracle Commerce surrounded him and began to beat him. Then they threw Nangong Zhi out of the mayor’s palace.

“You will regret this!”

“You will definitely regret this!”

Nangong Zhi’s shrill voice disappeared into the night and the banquet became silent.

Meng Yingying revealed a happy expression. If the Divine Wind Marquis wasn’t here, she would have began to praise Chu Tian.

“Impulsive, too impulsive!” The Divine Wind Marquis gave a helpless sigh, “Even if you didn’t agree to his request, you didn’t have to cripple him.”

Meng Qingwu also thought it was too much, “Nangong Zhi is a senior elder of the Nangong Family in the end, I’m afraid doing this will offend the Burning Sun Ruler and the marquises of the Nangong Family!”

That’s right!

The Flame Departing Marquis was a marquis from the Nangong Family. Nangong Zhi was clearly a lackey of the Flame Departing Marquis, but it didn’t matter if they offended him. With Miracle Commerce’s current strength, even one of the Eight Marquises couldn’t do anything to them.

But the Nangong Family was personally commanded by one of the Rulers!

The Burning Sun Ruler shared a title with the Calm Martial Ruler and had the ability to command the Eight Marquises. If one of the Three Rulers were angered, it was hard to imagine the consequences!

Even if they forgot the Burning Sun Monarch, Nangong Zhi came to Central State as a royal envoy and was investigating the matter according to the Southern Summer King’s orders. In the end? The person the Southern Summer King send ten thousand miles had only arrived in Central State for less than a day before he was crippled by Chu Tian!

If this matter spread to the Imperial City, where would the Southern Summer King’s face go?

Wasn’t this slapping the Southern Summer King’s face?

How could the king be challenged!

Not only would this offend the Three Rulers, it would also offend the Southern Summer King. Could Central State City block the rage of the Southern Summer King?

“No need to worry!” Chu Tian was not anxious at all, “I will find someone to speak up for us in the Imperial City.”

The Divine Wind Marquis knit his brows, “You have offended the Shangguan and Nangong Families, two of the Three Great Clans. The only remaining one is the Dongfang Family, but the problem is that the Dongfang Family will not gain anything from interfering with Central State, so they won’t do anything. Not to mention the fact that you have to find someone with enough power to see the king, which isn’t an easy matter.”

“It is because they have no interest that the Dongfang Family is suitable to our needs. As for the candidate….” Chu Tian intentionally paused here, making every anxious wait before slowly said, “We’ll have the Calm Martial Ruler support us, how about that?”

What?

Calm Martial Ruler!

Was Chu Tian crazy!

“The Dongfang Family is the head of the Three Great Clans and the Calm Martial Ruler is the number one minister in the Southern Summer Country. If we had the backing of the Calm Martial Ruler, not to mention crippling a senior elder of the Nangong Family, even if we crippled the Flame Departing Marquis, there would be room for negotiations.” The Divine Wind Marquis paused there, “Only for a person like the Calm Martial Ruler, why would he speak up for Miracle Commerce? Although you performed a great merit in Thunder State, the merit balances out the chaos in Central State.”

“I’m prepared to send the Calm Martial Ruler a gift.” Chu Tian said to everyone, “When the Calm Martial Ruler sees this gift, he will definitely stand on our side. He would even be willing to personally open the road for Miracle Commerce, laying the foundations for us in the Imperial City, inviting Miracle Commerce to move to the Imperial City.”

“Is this even possible?”

“The gift is in the Yun Sect. If you don’t believe me, then come and take a look.”

Chu Tian was very proud, but he always had a plan. This was something the Divine Wind Marquis was clear on.

No matter how profound a matter is, if Chu Tian can say it, then it would definitely come true.

The Divine Wind Marquis couldn’t help becoming curious. With the Calm Martial Ruler’s position, what treasures hadn’t he seen before? What kind of gift could actually touch a person like the Calm Martial Ruler?

He would have a look first.

Perhaps he would be pleasantly surprised!

Chu Tian led everyone to the Yun Sect’s research institute and they walked into a secret laboratory. In this room, there was only a white haired old man who was currently researching something.

“Marquis, Chairman, why are you guys here?”

Chu Tian said to Yun Tianhe, “Old Yun, how is it?”

“I still don’t understand a bit.” Yun Tianhe was standing by a strange thing, “How does the Source Energy Weapon that you developed actually work?”

Weapon?

Source Energy Weapon!

The gift Chu Tian wanted to give the Calm Martial Ruler was a new weapon? Meng Qingwu seemed to understand something.

“Don’t study it if you don’t understand it.” Chu Tian gestured to the Divine Wind Marquis at the side, “The Marquis wants to see the weapon, so let him have a look first.”

Yun Tianhe took out a strange weapon from a sealed crystal box and respectfully placed it in front of them. Meng Qingwu, Meng Yingying, and Nangong Yun had never seen this item before. They only thought it had a strange shape that did not seem like a weapon at all.

Chu Tian took out the item, “This is called a gun.”

“Spear?”

[TL Note: In chinese spear and gun use the same character.]

“What kind of spear?”

“Where is the long part of the spear?” Nangong Yun knit her brows, “Don’t lie to me!”

Wasn’t a spear supposed to be a long and sharp weapon? Chu Tian’s “spear” had completely changed everyone’s views.

This item was the size of a palm and one could hold it in a single hand. There was a one hundred milliliter Source Energy Battery embedded into the handle part. Because it was still an experimental design, it looked very crude.

When Meng Qingwu looked at the ugly weapon, her brain suddenly filled with pain and a memory slowly appeared, “In ancient times, there was a gnome race that created a hand held crystal device that could project high energy crystal thorns, that contained a powerful might. Is your spear the same as the gnome race’s weapon?”

The Divine Wind Marquis and Yun Tianhe looked at Meng Qingwu with surprised gazes.

Chu Tian was already used to this. Meng Qingwu’s source spirit was very special, it was a knowledge increasing source spirit, so she could awaken ancient memories and knowledge.

“It’s completely different.” Chu Tian replied, “The gnome’s crystal thorn weapons just used source energy to create kinetic energy, shooting out the crystal thorns stored within. The crystal thorns had destruction arrays engraved on it that increased the power and penetrating force of the crystal thorns. This weapon is pretty good, but it’s too troublesome to make and costs too much.”

The Divine Wind Marquis then asked, “What does your spear do?”

This seemingly crude spear was actually quite complex. From the specially made Source Energy Battery to the muzzle to the handle, there were at least three hundred runes connecting it all, with five special places having source energy arrays engraved on it. Other than Chu Tian, there was something a normal scholar could not do in their entire life.

“This gun uses the power of the Source Energy Battery and does not need one to use their cultivation base or to use any other materials, so it can be called an automatic Source Energy Weapon. It’s production is easy, its performance is good, and its output is not bad.” Chu Tian put away the Source Energy Pistol, “However, no matter how much I say, you won’t understand it. So, come with me to the testing grounds and I’ll show you its strength!”
