Chapter 741 - Affair - Part 1 (1/2)
Herman looked at the Tang Empire's representatives going back without caring about the aftermath of the World Congress. 'Even though you don't want to form any relation with any of us, we can trade information, right?' The information like what happened in his region, and what kind of monsters in his region. He thought that was valuable information, but the Tang Empire seemed not to care about that.
”Why don't they expose the World Union?” Herman muttered in a low voice. He was not aware he just said what was in his heart.
”The same reason as yours, Sir Herman.” Vice Guild Leader Frans interjected. ”They don't want to reveal their levels to the public.”
Herman was startled, but then he nodded his head. ”I am sure that young man is about to expose Hines' deceit, but the one in charge stopped him. Let's contact the faction in the same region as the Tang Empire and find out more about them.”
”Are you sure, Sir Herman?” Frans asked his leader and looked at the establishment from the China cities. There were five establishments from China, and all of them were joining a group, the Central Government. ”From my short conversation with the representative from that region, the Tang Empire does not have a good relationship with them. If we want to get closer to the Tang Empire, we have to keep our distance from those factions.”
”What I want is more information about the Tang Empire. So we don't need to have a good relationship with those factions. You bribe one of their representatives once more.” Herman's eyes locked on General Wang. ”That man entered the Tang Empire's booth earlier, but it seems he angered them. You can find out what these people want from the Tang Empire.”
”Alright, I will investigate the Tang Empire, but you have to talk with the minor factions first, Sir Herman. We can't ignore them, or else they will join Blue Vest. Sharing the minor factions some tips might help us to acquire them.” Frans said a piece of advice before leaving the booth.

Tang Shaoyang stared at the former Elven Queen in front of him as thoughts appeared in his mind. He activated [Grand Dragon Transformation], and killing intent filled the room, suffocating the former Elven Queen.
Tang Shaoyang appeared in front of Ava, catching her wrists and lifting her. ”What did you put in the tea? Were you trying to poison me?”
Ava's face paled while shaking her head furiously. ”N-no! It's not poison!” After great difficulty, she managed to utter those words.
Tang Shaoyang did not let her go. ”Then what is it?” This was the first time that a mere aura could be this suffocating. Sweats started to soak her forehead. ”It's an aphrodisiac! It's not poison, it's an aphrodisiac!”
In that instant, the killing intent disappeared. The anger was replaced with confusion. ”Aphrodisiac? Why did you put an aphrodisiac in my drink? What are you trying to achieve?” Tang Shaoyang questioned the former Elven Queen.
