Surviving The Fourth Calamity

Chapter 1542: Chapter 120: Sudden Announcement

’Lu Huayu’ couldn’t help but roll his eyes... No wonder Ambori said that the people from Black Rose could take a beating better than their family!

So that’s how they endure it!

Wasn’t this group there when Agleya got promoted?

Wait a minute, what about Old Dog?

Even if he’s a bit worse than Black Rose, he should have quite a few blessings, right!

He couldn’t help but squint his eyes, scanning ’Snow Cloud Peak’ from head to toe.

”What are you looking at?” ’Snow Cloud Peak’ asked discontentedly.

”Sigh... what a waste!” ’Lu Huayu’ said sullenly.

”Hmm?” ’Snow Cloud Peak’ was puzzled for two seconds, then instantly understood, ”Tsk, if you bring it upon yourself, don’t complain!”

’Lu Huayu’ looked desolate: ”Damn it, was it voluntary on my part?

I told that guy from End of the World Romance many times, it’s best not to use NPCs as breakthrough points... but he... sigh, he just wouldn’t listen.

But what could I do?

Back then, if I wasn’t clinging to Doomsday’s leg, I’d have been done in by you guys, okay?”

’Snow Cloud Peak’ glanced at him lightly: ”Oh, come on... If you’d changed your identity, Young Master wouldn’t have hunted you down. Our alliance was only after the skin of Lu Huayu, not the person beneath.

You just couldn’t bear to part with it, so now you have to bear the consequences!”

’Lu Huayu’ leaned gently against the back of the sofa, covering his forehead with his hand: ”The cost of establishing the clan hasn’t even been recovered yet! How could I bear it?”

”Ah, right, that Tanya, is she really going after Ellie?” ’Perfect Bald’ looked at ’Snow Cloud Peak’ with curiosity, ”Can it be streamed?”

”What are you talking about?” ’Snow Cloud Peak’ blinked, giving him an innocent look.

”Come on, that merchant clan, it’s called Liunian, right... Even the guys at Doomsday know he’s your shadow!” ’Perfect Bald’ curled his lip, ”I heard Road Eunuch muttering to his people, telling them not to clash with Liunian.”

”Hmm... wait?” ’Susu’ suddenly realized, ”On our side, only two PVE clans were allowed near Ellie, one is Liunian, the other is the Bai Nishang clan that specializes in tailoring... Is Bai Nishang someone from Road Eunuch?

How is that possible?

She has such a good character!”

”Damn!” ’Lu Huayu’ felt as if he’d been struck by lightning, ”Isn’t your focus a bit off?”

”Nishang? The Qingyunyi clan that customizes clothes for rich women?” ’Snow Cloud Peak’ thought for a moment before realizing... Compared to the women in the family, he didn’t know much about pure merchant clans who hardly even did tasks.

”Just a coincidence.” ’Lu Huayu’ explained blandly, ”You see, our clan, although predominantly male, is Qingyunyi’s biggest financial backer, without exception.

Our boss loves giving his new lovers unique outfits.

Nishang, she needs our boss’s money, but doesn’t want his attention on her... Though more money would come that way, that girl doesn’t really like our boss’s personality.

I’m not that kind-hearted, but just helping to divert the boss’s attention is no problem at all, since it’s quite easy.

Our boss, his gaze only lingers initially, once Qingyunyi practically becomes his custom factory, he won’t have any ulterior thoughts about Nishang.

He never eats the grass by his nest.

For me, that’s fine, I exchanged a few more words, spent a bit more effort, but it saved me a lot of trouble later.

But, Nishang has always been grateful for my help, back then she was just starting her business and didn’t want to offend a big client like our boss.

So, when she noticed Ellie was very interested in the clothes they got for the tower sale, she asked me about it.

How could I pass up such an opportunity, right?”

”Is Bai Nishang okay?” ’Susu’ asked seriously, ”She works meticulously, but her personality is a bit... um... not very talkative.”

”Miss Ellie is very confident; she doesn’t need others’ flattery, only cares if she likes it or not.” ’Lu Huayu’ laughed, ”Nishang only needs to provide sufficiently exquisite designs... Our designs are all 3D, Ellie loves them.”

”What are you playing dumb for?” ’Qiuqiu’ sneered, ”Susu clearly asked if Bai Nishang can figure out what the other side is up to!

Conspiracies and intrigues aren’t the kind of things someone who doesn’t like interacting with people can uncover!”

”Hmm?” ’Perfect Bald’ smiled and said, ”The reason I discovered there was contact between Road Eunuch and Qingyunyi wasn’t because of Bai Nishang.

Right?

Road Eunuch.

Oh my~ I really didn’t expect you guys to still have contact... and you even...”

”Why are you so annoying!” ’Lu Huayu’ broke down, ”Did you put surveillance in Zhu Meili’s house or what?

You can even find out this!

He was clearly using a female account!”

”Ah...” ’Snow Cloud Peak’ suddenly realized, ”The three-year contract period is up, he’s back here huh!

What about Qingyuan?

Didn’t come?”

”He wouldn’t show up!” ’Lu Huayu’ rolled his eyes, ”With your elder’s precedent, who would give a Clan Leader from such a large family the chance to return to the original game?

Besides, with Qingyuan’s attitude, how could he possibly come back here and be suppressed by you? It must be the kind of contract with the maximum term!

This game’s version update... although newcomers have a way out, they can only strive for opportunities in the new world, return to those few past worlds, wouldn’t they be pressed to the ground by you guys?”

”That’s... really a pity.” ’Snow Cloud Peak’ tilted his head, ”Seems like, we’ll just have to wait for new opponents!

Really, it’s only with enemies that there’s peace!”

’Lu Huayu’ rolled his eyes, ”Rest assured, even if the enemy is not strong enough, seeing Black and White Path’s desolate look, there won’t be anyone causing trouble in your alliance for a while.”

”Hey hey hey!” ’Snow Cloud Peak’ immediately shook his head, ”I might be cold-blooded and unfeeling, but definitely not despicable!

Black and White Path’s kind...”

”Can you not use our family as an example?” Black and White Path’s manager couldn’t help but speak softly, ”For corpse-whipping and such... it’s best to leave it for some time.

Give it some breathing room, okay?”

”Alright alright~” ’Snow Cloud Peak’ nodded with a smile, then turned to ’Lu Huayu’, ”So why did Zhu Meili come back; I thought he’d always be a consultant for Qingyuan!”

’Lu Huayu’ pursed his lips, ”When the rabbit dies, the hounds are cooked.”

Without such strong opponents as ’Snow Cloud Peak’ and Proud Sky Alliance, a game where you can thrive with money alone, ’End of the World Romance’ no longer needs someone like Zhu Meili who excels at scheming as an assistant.

He only needs someone who’s good at flattering... the salary for keeping Zhu Meili alone is enough to keep an entire group!”

’Lu Huayu’ could only watch Zhu Meili, who was about as capable as him, fall from grace and be forced to come to him, a former colleague, for help, making him resolute not to be anyone’s follower in reality.

Although Zhu Meili made quite a bit of money these years, could ’End of the World Romance’ have the capability to counter Snow Old Dog without Zhu Meili?

The earnings of the Last-Era Clan, a large part of the credit goes to Zhu Meili, but just because the game End of the World Romance went to doesn’t have strong opposition, he’s cast away like a used tool.

But what can people like them, with insufficient background, do?

Why didn’t Zhu Meili choose to start from scratch back then but instead follow the somewhat prosperous ’End of the World Romance’... isn’t it precisely because he’s even worse off than ’Lu Huayu’?

Moreover, who doesn’t know about ’Snow Cloud Peak’s’ past experiences?

Indeed, he used his skills to fleece those bosses, but... who wants to work that hard?

After endless calculations, ’Lu Huayu’ still ended up losing once, losing everything, and couldn’t muster the fighting spirit.

How many can endure the heartache and struggle like ’Snow Cloud Peak’?

”So it’s shared misery...” ’Young Master’ spoke in a sinister tone, ”No wonder you’d help him out.”

”However, with Zhu Meili over there, you indeed don’t need to worry about failing to notice unexpected incidents... Heh~ Even I suffered losses under him, people over at Eden... Heh heh~” ’Snow Cloud Peak’ suddenly chuckled, ”If they always assume our side only plays fair and square, this time, they might end very miserably.

Zhu Meili is definitely going to make a big move, to prove his king’s return!”

”Return my foot!” ’Perfect Bald’ said disdainfully, ”Is this an Eastern Factory and Western Factory grand union?”

Zhu Meili is best at spreading rumors and loves to sow discord... It’s understandable that Wenjian came later and Battle Field couldn’t be stirred, those tactics are mostly aimed at their Black Rose!

Their family has suffered quite a few crashes because of that brat!

As for Black and White Path... naturally, it’s also a major disaster area.

’Lu Huayu’ twitched at the corner of his mouth... although Baldy spoke crudely, it does fit his and Zhu Meili’s style indeed: one is scheming and loves to deceive, the other is vicious and loves to spread rumors.

”So... hmm?” ’Snow Cloud Peak’ looked down at the tablet, ”World announcement?”

”Moon Clan’s morale plummeted, hence Sea God Triton joined the battlefield... Three days later, Moon Clan will increase by another 200,000?” ’Lu Huayu’ exclaimed, ”What about us?”

”Wait, William issued a supplementary notice.” ’Perfect Bald’ frowned while looking at the tablet, ”Registration opens today, ends in three days... send people in on the fifth day?”
