The Invincible Corruption Manual

Chapter 71 CHAPTER 70 : Entering The Forbidden Place

"Manager Li, I am not here to fight with you. Also, I am not insane enough to provoke a beast tamer. Let's stop here. Why don't we settle this matter peacefully." The old Gao suggested. ( Gao is the surname of Fire Nation's royal family.)

"How about we settle this matter between us?" Manager Li proposed to him.

"Alright, alright." He agreed and looked at elder Chen Lei and said," You two must leave now. I will settle this matter with Manager Li alone."

Then Chen Lei glared at Manager Li once and took his leave together with Duyi.

When they were not far away from the hotel, Manager Lie shouted using his essence qi," Elder Chen Lei, for destroying my hotel. As compensation, I will take one of your soul stone mines inside the city."

"Your Highness, please follow me. This place is not good for our discussion. Let's go somewhere quiet." Manager Li said, and then he flew toward the direction of his office. Old Gao also followed behind him.

Joey, Chun Hua, and Wu Tong remained in the open room on the last floor.

"Elder sister Chun, Manager Li, is so cool today. How many beasts does he have in his beast-pouch?" Joey asked her curiously.

"Oh, about that, let me tell you about our cultivation technique first. All beast tamers can only tame one lvl 1 beast in 'Mortal realm cultivation.' After they break through to the Houtian realm, they can tame three more level 2 beasts. Similarly, after semi-nascent realm, they can tame five more lvl 3 beasts." She explained.

"So, how many beasts do you think Manager Li has now?" She asked.

"Thirty," Wu Tong replied, scratching his head.

"He has thirty-six beasts in total with nine lvl 6 beasts. But he seems to have more than nine lvl 6 beasts." Joey replied.

"Hee hee hee, it is because some of them evolved." Chun Hua giggled and explained.

"So if all his beasts evolved to lvl 6, then he will have 36 lvl 6 beasts. That means he alone can fight 36 God-realm experts at once." Joey said.

"Right, and Manager Li has nineteen lvl 6 beasts in his beast-couch. That is why no one wants to provoke a beast tamer." Chun Hua explained further.

Inside the manager's office, two men sat across from each other. A maid came in and served tea. They drank the tea and remained silent for about ten minutes. Old Gao couldn't keep up with him.

"Manager Li, I honestly apologize for this matter today." Old Gao looked at him sincerely.

"Your Highness, I know what you are afraid of. Business is business. But, this matter includes defaming our young miss." Manager Li stated firmly.

Manager Li controlled more than 45% of the economy of Blazed city. Suppose he took out his assets and left the city. The capital city, Blaze city, would go bankrupt in a day, which meant the whole Fire Nation would also become bankrupt soon. This was what Old Gao was afraid of.

"What do you want?" Old Gao asked with a straight face.

"Alright, I am not an unreasonable man. I will not make it difficult for you. How about you open the gate of your 'Forbidden volcanic mountain'? "Manager Li said calmly.

"But, that place… Alright, I will open the gate." Old agreed and sighed lightly.

"Your highness, how have you been?" Manager Li asked politely with a friendly smile.

"Hmm, he changed his attitude quickly. This man is born for business after all." Old Gao thought.

And he replied, "I am fine. So, Manager Lei, I have a doubt in my mind."

"What is it, your Highness? Everyone here is old friends." Manager Li said.

"I learned that all the countries here in the eastern continent belong to the 'One-Thousand Eastern Alliance.' One-third of this eastern region's economy is under your Hall of treasure's control.  But, why don't you have any business establishments  inside Canon city?" Old Gao asked him.

"I don't know either. It's just that the higher up of my Hall of Treasure forbade us to go inside Canon city." Manager Li replied.

"Alright, I will take my leave. Manager LI, I don't know what you are going to do there. But, please come early in the morning."

Then they exchanged greetings. And old Gao vanished from inside the room.

After that, Chun Hua came inside the room, followed by Joey and Wu Tong.

"I will arrange new rooms for you all. Before that, I have some good news." Manager Li said and smiled at them.

"Uncle Li, what is it? Does the old man compensate you with something interesting?" Chun Hua asked slyly.

"You are right. Tomorrow, we can go inside the Forbidden Volcanic mountain." Manager Li said.

"Uncle Li, you are the best ." Chun Hua ran toward him and massaged his shoulders.

The following day they went toward the gate of the Forbidden Volcanic mountain. The old Gao was already there waiting for them.

Then he chanted a spell and tabbed lightly on the gate. After that, the gate opened slowly.

"Manager Li, it is not a good idea to enter this place. I will not be taking any responsibilities if you all don't come out of there." He said.

"Don't worry about that. I have already reported about this trip to the headquarters. They will not make things hard for you." Manager Li said.

"Let's go inside." He shouted.

Then, the four of them entered the forbidden place.

Higher realm,

A ship was currently moving in space. Inside this ship, in a compartment, three persons were presently having their meals.

"Elder Qiulong, why don't you warn me about Tang's hidden weapon that day?" Qing Fai asked.

"Young Master Fai, I don't know either." Elder Quilong replied and kept eating.

Menglou was also beside him, having her meal. On that day, her master Quilong had already told him about her daughter's awakening. So, she became calm after knowing that her daughter would live.

"Elder Quilong, I will take princess Bailong to my clan after reaching our planet." Qing Fan said firmly.

"Young master Fan, you can't do that." Elder Quilong replied.

"Why? She was already betrothed to my elder brother. So, she now belongs to our family." Qing Fan asked.

"No, she is already the daughter-in-law of the Tangs. Now, she has nothing to do with your clan anymore. Also, Zhang's family will support her from now onward." Elder Quilong replied.

Qing Fan snorted and left the compartment.
