Armipotent

Chapter 741 - Affair - Part 1

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.

Yes, when he drank the so-called calming tea, his sensitive body recognized the thing that could affect his mind. He assumed it was a poison, but aphrodisiac could also be in that category. However, thanks to [Resistance], the aphrodisiac did not work on him.

Tang Shaoyang released the wrist and returned to the chair. Ava was gasping for breath as it was hard for her to breathe when the killing intent was directed to her. He looked at the woman, scanning her from top to bottom. 'No wonder she came to me with that kind of clothes, but why?'

"What do you want? Why are you trying to drug me? I don't understand?" Tang Shaoyang shook his head. It was hard to understand her motive. "Oh, do you want to drug me so that you can humiliate me? Like, the new ruler is forcing the citizens or something?" That could be the case. After drugging him, she dragged him into the street and threw him into a random woman. If he was on drugs, the woman would not be able to resist him.

"No!" Ava immediately denied it and revealed her intention. "I don't want to harm you in any way, I just want to make a deal. No, to be exact, I want to force you to make a deal."

Tang Shaoyang turned off the Dragon Transformation and rubbed his chin. "If you want to strike a deal, there's no need for you to use drugs. You can just say it to me directly." He squinted his eyes as he became suspicious of Ava.

"You are married to my Sister, and I am afraid you will turn down the deal. That's why I am using the drug. I will do the action first and state the terms later." Ava lowered her head as she was ashamed to say that out.

Tang Shaoyang was flabbergasted as it seemed the former Elven Queen was up to something different than the one in his mind. "Wait, what kind of a deal are you talking about? Are you here not on behalf of the Elven Kingdom?" He thought the deal she was talking about was the Elven Kingdom, not a personal deal.

"No!" Ava shook his head. "I want to make a personal deal, just like you did with the fallen female noble."

"Fallen female noble?" Tang Shaoyang thought about it. He knew who she was talking about, but after thinking a while, he was shocked that this former Elven Queen wanted to make that shady deal.

"Yes, that Viona woman." Ava raised her face to meet Tang Shaoyang's eyes. "I saw everything what you two did that night."

Tang Shaoyang was surprised that Ava saw that event. He used Spirit Eyes to make sure no one was around, and he did not see anyone back then. However, there was one thing that confused him even more. "What do you want from me? Do you know what Viona gave me, right?"

"I don't know the exchange, but within a single night, that girl became so strong." Ava shook her head… "I watched her, and her progress was so fast. That must be your doing, right?"
