Chapter 1194 Irrefutable Offer
The Central Continent, Long Clan Manor.
Inside the secret room, Long Jinwei glanced at the report in his hand and turned to ask his son, Long Guang. “Did you find anything?”
During this period, the Long Clan’s businesses were attacked by a mysterious group of people, and the loss was not low. Although Long Jinwei could guess more or less about the mastermind behind this, he still asked his son about it.
Long Guang shook his head. “They didn’t leave a single trace behind. This kind of operation, only the Star Pavilion, and the Mystic Pavilion have the ability to do it. Naturally, the Mystic Pavilion has no enmity with us. There’s no point for them in doing this.
“At the same time, even if we know that the Star Pavilion did this, we have no evidence.”
He paused briefly and said with a trace of anger. “Are they truly thinking we don’t dare fight back?”
Long Jinwei leaned back slightly and said. “Evidence? If we want to retaliate, we don’t need evidence at all.”
Long Guang asked in confusion. “Father, you mean…?”
Long Jinwei shook his head. “On the contrary, they are waiting for us to make a move. Once we do it, they will use this as an excuse. At the same time, if we don’t do anything, we will continue to lose our businesses and people. This is naturally Xing Tengfei’s idea.”
He looked at Long Guang and asked. “What about the Heavenly Sword Palace?”
“They have suffered, too. However, it is lighter compared to us.” Long Guang replied.
Long Jinwei nodded. “It’s understandable. They cannot afford to provoke us at the same time. At least not now.”
“Any news about Young Lord Yun?” He asked.
Long Guang shook his head. “It’s been a few days since he entered the Golden Mountain Ruins. I reckon it would take a few months for him to come out.”
He frowned slightly and said in doubt. “I don’t understand why he has to go there in this situation.”
“He naturally has his own idea.” Long Jinwei said. “Remember, do not ask what you shouldn’t ask.”
“I know, father. I’m just curious.” Long Guang said solemnly.
Long Jinwei tapped his finger on the armrest for a while and said. “Tell our people to close all the shops and come back. From today onward, we will enter a fortified period.”
“But this…” Long Guang was unwilling.
“No but.” Long Jinwei interrupted. “Have you forgotten that we don’t need resources anymore? With the resources Young Lord Yun gave us, in fact, we don’t even need to buy them for a hundred years.”
“But closing the shops will make us appear weak to them. Our Long Clan has never been afraid of anyone.” Long Guang said unwillingly. Perhaps it was because of the Golden Dragon bloodline in his vein that made him unwilling to lower his pride.
Long Jinwei smiled and said. “Who said I will just stand by and do nothing?”
Long Guang was taken aback. “Father means…?”
“Since they messed with us, why couldn’t we do the same?” Long Guang smiled meaningfully. “Contact Miss Meilan and ask her an opinion. At the same time, try to contact the Endless Dream Dancing Hall.”
Long Guang’s eyes lit up. “Understood, father!”
As he spoke, he hurriedly took the transmission jade out and tried to contact Yun Meilan.

In the Mystic Pavilion’s headquarter, Wu Qingcheng slowly put down the teacup and looked at the woman who sat opposite her. “What qualification do you have to ask me to do this?”
Her voice was a little cold as she was angry.
The woman before her was no other than Weilan Xuan, the Supreme Elder of the Azure Palace and Weilan Tian’s master.
A while ago, Weilan Xuan came here and requested to meet the Mystic Pavilion Lord. However, he refused to meet her and let Wu Qingcheng come instead.
What made Wu Qingcheng angry was that this woman actually dared to tell her to stop interacting with Yun Lintian. Moreover, she even wanted the Mystic Pavilion to stop doing business with the Long Clan and the Heavenly Sword Palace.
Facing Wu Qingcheng’s cold words, Weilan Xuan responded calmly. “I naturally have no qualification to ask the Mystic Pavilion this. However, I came here in the name of cooperation.”
“Cooperation?” Wu Qingcheng curled her lips disdainfully. “Does my Mystic Pavilion look like we lack your tales?”
“Of course, I’m not talking about treasures.” Weilan Xuan shook her head slightly.
“What do you mean then?” Wu Qingcheng asked impatiently.
Weilan Xuan took a deep look at Wu Qingcheng and said. “Our Azure Palace will open the seal, and we can give your Mystic Pavilion some quotas.”
Wu Qingcheng’s pupils shrank upon hearing this. As the Mystic Pavilion Lord’s daughter, she naturally knew what Weilan Xuan meant. The seal she talked about was no other than the tunnel leading to the Abyssal World.
However, there was another secret in this. Although the tunnel was indeed leading to the Abyssal World, it had also connected to the Divine Realm!
“Promise her.” Suddenly, Wu Liwei’s voice resounded in Wu Qingcheng’s mind. This made her brows involuntarily crease together.
Wu Qingcheng naturally knew how much her father wanted to go to the Divine Realm. If he could exchange everything in the Mystic Pavilion for such a chance, he wouldn’t hesitate at all.
Weilan Xuan calmly sipped a tea without saying anything further. Before coming here, she had received information about the origin of the Mystic Pavilion from Xing Tengfei, and she immediately understood that Wu Liwei would never refuse this offer.
The Mystic Pavilion was, in fact, established by Wu Qingcheng’s mother, Xuan Jinghua. This Xuan Jinghua was a native of the Divine Realm, and she came to the Azure World by accident.
Later, she fell in love with Wu Liwei and established the Mystic Pavilion. In order to increase the talent of the fetus in her belly, she forcibly sealed it and planned to give birth to her later when she returned to the Divine Realm.
However, around thirty years ago, an accident occurred. She had no choice but to leave this world through special means.
In order to protect the fetus and Wu Liwei, she decided to give birth to Wu Qingcheng before leaving. 𝗻𝐨𝐯𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺
During these decades, Wu Liwei never gave up finding a way to leave this world and reunite with his wife…Now, the opportunity had appeared in front of him. How could he refuse it?
