Chapter 485: Qiu Shanyu’s Plan

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Moon Frost Island, where people come and went in a hurry. In the campus, beautiful women could be seen everywhere. They formed groups and wherever they gracefully walked past would leave a string of silver bell-like laughter in the air, forming a unique scenery.

One of the biggest features of Moon Frost Island was that the number women were far more than men. Thus, there would be many male students who would apply for Moon Frost Island every year. But the admission conditions for male students were more demanding than that for females. This led to protests from many students in the Heavenly Federation. However, not only did Moon Frost Island ignore it, they also continued the practise every year. Over time, everyone was used to it.

Most heritages in Moon Frost Island were suitable for women’s learning, and with the influence of unique geographical environment, each generation had a great talent. For example, Jia Yingxia who began to take control of Moon Frost Island 20 years ago. She was one of the top card artisans in the Heavenly Federation. As for this generation’s Baiyue, she was also considered amazing within the younger generations. Moon Frost Island had a wealth of experiences in training female card artisans. And they had a set of extremely effective methods.

Today’s Moon Frost Island was busy everywhere. As it was not long until the Union Conference, their workload had also increased rapidly.

In the Dean’s office, the curtains were tightly drawn together.

Jia Yingxia smiled as she spoke, “Why are you hiding? I don’t think many people will recognize you.”

“I do not want to cause trouble,” A ruthless voice came out from a dark place.

Jia Yingxia laughed even more joyfully. Those well-maintained hands lightly covered her red lips, “Who knew that even Caesar would have a time of being afraid of trouble too!”

“You didn’t call me here just to tell me this,” Caesar’s voice showed his clear impatience.

Jia Yingxia stopped smiling, straightened her clothes and sat properly, with her white gown dragging on the floor. She said with a serious expression, “This time, I invited Brother Caesar here to ask for help. Su Hanhao is here.”

“What!” A shocked voice could be heard from the shadows. Caesar was slightly surprised, “Why would he be here? Didn’t he hide in the Desert Camp and refused to come out for many years?”

“I can roughly know his plan. Moon Frost Island and Desert Camp are enemies. This has lasted for so many years and nothing has changed. It is only sad that because of such critical times, I have no time to accompany my old friend,” Jia Yingxia’s voice turned cold, “If my predictions are right, I am afraid that other parties will send people here. However, they respect their identities, so I presume that they will not come on their own. Most possibly the next generation of students will be dispatched. The only thing I cannot guess is Tang Hanpei.”

“Tang Hanpei!” In the shadow, a cold light similar to that of a blade flickered.

Jia Yingxia sighed, “I wonder how Tang Hanpei practised for him to be the best of the Heavenly Federation at such a young age. Pavchek had nothing to show off. The only thing that was worth being proud of was the fact that he could teach such a student, although he was betrayed by him in the end. The rarest thing was that he was skillful in both strategy and tricks.”

“In this world, he is not the only prodigy!” Caesar snorted.

Jia Yingxia was a little surprised. After a while, she said, “It seems like you are very optimistic about your new student. Well, I wish to see him. I do not know if he can get along with Yue er that well, since Yue er has not much friends. But your student seems to gotten into some trouble lately. Apparently, the Comprehensive Federation Academy has set up a Killing Team and they have already set off.

“Whether he is dead or alive, that depends on his own skills. If he can’t even deal with this small matter smoothly, how can I place my hope on him to fight against Tang Hanpei?” Caesar did not have any reaction but instead said in an extremely cold manner.

“Ah!” Now, Jia Yingxia was really surprised, “Against Tang Hanpei? I am getting more and more interested in this child. How about this? I can let Yue er lead the team, to help your descendant out. ”

Caesar sneered, “Help out? Don’t assume that I don’t know what you’re up to.”

“Come on, don’t say that. Instead of letting it fall into other’s hands, it would be better to let it fall into my hands,” Jia Yingxia did not change her facial expression, but instead smiled as she said, “Also, I don’t think that you have that thing with you. If you did, you would have exchanged it for medicine years ago and did not have owe me a favour. It is just that Tan Yumin has it. Although the Card Appliance in Moon Frost Island is not outstanding in any way, but we can’t just watch while it falls into the hands of others.”

“That’s your business, nothing to do with me!” Caesar’s tone became more impatient.

“I heard that you and Tan Yumin’s mother were friends. So you will just watch as the girl gets trapped between the wolves?” Jia Yingxia’s eyes widened as she asked jokingly.

Caesar said sarcastically, “Then you go. Hmph, aside from Faya’s success in exploiting a loophole, the Star Court and Bitter Solitude Temple did not even manage to steal it. And yet you dare to touch the food on their tables?”

Jia Yingxia sighed, “Yes, this little girl is quite stubborn.” She relaxed her body and stretched, “I cannot afford to offend those two. But for your student’s case, there won’t be any problem if I interfere, right?”

A murderous aura burst out abruptly, and the air became unnerved. Meanwhile, all the murderous intents were pointed to Jia Yingxia like needles.

“If you continue to disturb me, I will kill you!”

Caesar’s arrogant and violent words seemed like a knife cutting through the bottom of a person’s heart. If it was for those of little courage, their galls and livers would have probably torn apart.

“Alright, alright. Even with your old age your temper is still so bad,” Jia Yingxia appeared calm, “You’d get agitated even with just a joke. Then I’ll be brief. Help me deal with Su Hanhao. That shouldn’t be a problem, right?”

“I hate owing people favours the most.”

After saying this sentence which was either regretful lament or complaint, Caesar disappeared.

Jia Yingxia’s held her chin with her right hand and was slightly in a trance. She murmured, “The lot is cast. Tang Hanpei, what will you do?”

The news of the Comprehensive Federation Academy deploying a Killing Team was spread to everyone on the next day. Not only did the Comprehensive Federation Academy’s actions have no cover-ups, it was highly unconstrained and advertised.

For the lineup of the Killing Team, there were almost 20 people composed of card artisans that have already graduated for more than five years. There were many famous masters already, while for those who were not famous, nobody would suspect their strength. The average age of the Killing Team was more than 35 years old. As for the amount of card artisans which were Level 7 and above, the number had reached an astonishing point. The leader of the team was Lei Xu, who was a famous master of the Comprehensive Federation Academy and was especially good at assassinations.

This was was a true elite, unlike those who had yet to graduate. They were elite card artisans that had been baptized by blood and fire.

They came from the Comprehensive Federation Academy, and had all studied from advanced inheritances. They were far from being comparable to the ordinary Level 7 card artisans. With such the powerful force, no one dared to look down on them. Many people were secretly worried for the White Commander when they heard about this news. These 20 people were enough to annihilate a smaller Card Artisans Team.

“Haha, Brother White, Tang Hanpei gave you a lot of face!” When Jie Yanbai read the news, he laughed out loud.

Chen Mu was also surprised. Although he also thought that the Comprehensive Federation Academy would do everything in their power to fight him, but to dispatch such a huge team with so much fanfare, this made him couldn’t help but to laugh slightly although he knew that this was a serious matter. He hadn’t even reached Level 7, but half the team were actually made up of card artisans whose Perceptions had broken through Level 7.

Card artisans whose Perception was at Level 7 were not easy to deal with, especially the Level 7 card artisans who were born out of the Great Six. He suddenly wondered, what was Tang Hanpei’s intention for sending such a powerful team? To fight him? He shook his head. Using such power to deal with himself, wouldn’t that just be like a cannon fighting against mosquitoes? This stupid idea just didn’t seem to be Tang Hanpei’s style.

Unless he had other intentions?

“I am only afraid that Tang Hanpei has other plans,” Jie Yanbai stopped smiling, and cautiously said. “To be honest, this lineup is quite exaggerated if it was just to defeat Brother White. If I am not wrong, I am afraid that Tang Hanpei still has his eyes set on Moon Frost Island’s Union Conference. ” In dealing with Tang Hanpei, they were both surprisingly consistent in their thoughts.

“Don’t care about him,” Chen Mu said and turned before entering the training room.

In the training room, he walked to Qiu Shanyu and sat down. Qiu Shanyu remained silent from the moment Jie Yanbai appeared. Although Jie Yanbai was somewhat curious, he knew better than to ask about it. He saw that Chen Mu was continuously with her in a room, and misunderstood them to be in a relationship.

“You need to prove your worth,” Chen Mu calmly said, “You told me that you would help me find the owner of the mark in my body. If you cannot, then I don’t want to keep a hidden danger by my side.”

Qiu Shanyu looked at Chen Mu deeply before speaking calmly, “I thought you forgot about it,” She glanced around, got up to the table, picked up a piece of paper and wrote on it. After a while, she passed the paper to Chen Mu.

“For this matter, you need to rely on the power of Faya. Rest assured, I did not leave a mark on it. I don’t want to die before seeing him,” Qiu Shanyu said faintly.

Chen Mu took it and glanced at the word on the paper. There was only one address on it. In the corner, was written her name.

“My plan is this.” Looking at Chen Mu, she said, “First, you make a marked one star magic card. Then, tear off my signature and send it to this address along with the magic card and plan book. The operation is like this, the designed mark will be Faya’s next product’s trademark. This brand will become the number one sponsor of this time’s Elite Competition in Moon Frost Island. All the platforms of the whole federation will simultaneously advertise this company. In the advertisement, there will only be one thing emphasized, and that is the Elite Competition to be held in Thousand Lakes. Others will only think that we are using this contest to expand our influence and will not think of our true intentions. The shape of each pattern is different. If he sees it, he will recognize it and understand the time and place indicated by the advertisement.”

After listening to Qiu Shanyu’s plan, Chen Mu was a bit surprised. Previously when she mentioned about advertisements, Chen Mu had merely listened without any further thought. But the plan this time was obviously more complete than the one before. If they were to follow this plan, it might also not attract others’ attentions.

“How will she find me once she arrives at Thousand Lakes?” Chen Mu thought of a question.

Qiu Shanyu said, “If you are not too far away from her, she will be able to sense the mark on your body and will naturally come to you.”

“How are you so sure that she will be able to see this advertisement?” Chen Mu asked.

Qiu Shanyu raised her fine eyebrows, “Do you have a better plan?”

Chen Mu’s mood fell, “No.”

“All is agreed then?” Qiu Shanyu did not even look at Chen Mu as she wore a pair of slippers and walked aside.
