Chapter 209 Tianxu Tower Executives
Miao family.
Miao Wujiang, who was half a step away from becoming a god, had long lost the imposing aura he had half a year ago. He was listless, with many more wrinkles on his face. In order to support Miao Qianqian's training in Tianxu Tower, almost all the valuable things in the Miao family had been sold out, and the only thing left was the Miao family itself.
Seeing her father working so hard, Miao Qianqian bit her lip and was about to speak, but Miao Wujiang already knew what Miao Qianqian would say and immediately raised his hand to stop her.
"Qianqian, you have already reached the golden elixir state at the age of seventeen. You are the pride of the Miao family, a prodigy that only appears once in a thousand or even ten thousand years in Ganzhou! You absolutely cannot be dragged down by my Miao family. Tianxu Tower is your only chance!"
Miao Qianqian clenched her fists and said nothing.
This was not the first time such a conversation had occurred. She was not blind and could see that the Miao family's condition was deteriorating.
"Qianqian, don't worry, as long as the top executives of Tianxu Tower are willing to meet us, there is still hope!"
Just then a man ran in hurriedly.
"Master! The top management of Tianxu Tower is willing to see us!"
The Miao father and daughter were stunned, and Miao Wujiang's momentum suddenly rose as if he had a last burst of energy, and he stood up suddenly.
"Sure enough, God has not given up on our Miao family!"
…
"Ah - long time no see, Master Miao -"
In the private room, Li Yanmo put down his teacup and nodded to the Miao father and daughter who were standing in a daze in front of the door.
"You, you, you are..."
Miao Wujiang stuttered and pointed at Li Yanmo, while Miao Qianqian's face was pale without a trace of blood.
"Hmm? Master Miao, don't you remember me? We have met several times before," Li Yanmo smiled and counted on his fingers. "The first time we met was in front of the Enlightenment Stone of Qingshan Sect. After that, we met again in Tianxu Tower. Then, during the Ganzhou Competition, I ranked second and your daughter ranked first."
Seeing that Miao Wujiang was speechless, Li Yanmo looked at Miao Qianqian.
"Ms. Miao, how many times have we met? This should be the fifth time—"
"Ah, come to think of it, I never had a chance to introduce myself," Li Yanmo turned sideways, resting his right hand on his cheek, and said with a smile, "My name is Li Yanmo, and I can say a few words in Tianxu Tower. I heard that you are sure to convince me to invest in Miao Family, I wonder what it is."
The Miao father and daughter fell backwards at the same time, but Zhao Qian and Situ Lei were already in place. They pushed the chair forward just enough for the Miao father and daughter to sit on it, and then pushed them in one after the other.
"Master Li, do you need us to sit in on the lecture?"
"No need, they'll be too nervous with you around."
"yes."
Zhao Qian and Situ Lei retreated quickly, not forgetting to close the door.
The respectful attitude of Zhao Qian and Situ Lei completely shattered the last hope of the Miao father and daughter.
"Mr. Li, you, you are..."
Miao Wujiang stuttered and couldn't utter a complete sentence.
Seeing her father wavering like this, Miao Qianqian bit her lip and made up her mind. As soon as she opened her mouth, Li Yanmo said slowly, "You don't think I'm taking revenge on you, do you? Do you think it's necessary?"
Miao Qianqian suddenly fell silent.
If Li Yanmo wanted to take revenge on them, the Miao family would have disappeared long ago, and she would not have been able to break through the Jindan stage in such a short time.
Miao Wujiang also came back to his senses from his fright, but his mind was still blank and he didn't know what to say. Miao Qianqian tried hard to maintain her dignity.
"Master Li, why do you treat the Miao family like this..."
"Ms. Miao, I don't quite understand what you're saying. Are you trying to say that the Miao family's current situation is my fault?" Li Yanmo picked up the teacup and shook it gently. "Tianxu Tower is a place for business. The training ground here is no less than that of a super sect. Do you think that the Miao family can allow you to train in a super sect's training ground for so long?"
"Or do you think I should let you practice here for free?"
Miao Qianqian was startled for a moment. After a long while, her shoulders slowly slumped down and she bowed her head to Li Yanmo, "Master Li, please forgive me. It was my fault."
Li Yanmo laughed, "I heard that you Miao family are confident that you can convince me? Could it be that you mean to break through the Nascent Soul stage before the age of 18, become the legal wife of the eighth prince Ji Fa, and become the Gan King as a royal relative?"
Seeing that Li Yanmo even mentioned the name Ji Fa without any respect, Miao Wujiang was shocked, but he still suppressed his uneasiness and explained, "Eighth Prince Ji Fa is the best among all the princes in terms of character, cultivation, and contribution to Dayu. I heard that he has made great contributions in Chiche this time. Emperor Yu will most likely choose him as the crown prince."
Miao Qianqian also nodded nervously.
Li Yanmo slammed the cup on the table with a loud bang. The blow was not heavy, but it scared Miao Wujiang so much that he dared not speak, and Miao Qianqian lowered her head in fear.
Considering how much Emperor Yu values Tianxu Tower, it might be possible that he could use the Miao family incident to make Ji Fa the crown prince so that he can provide funds to Tianxu Tower through the Miao family.
If such a thing really happened, Jifa might express his resentment by hanging himself in front of his door.
"Master Miao, your daughter has already reached the Golden Core stage at the age of seventeen. If she can really become a Nascent Soul at the age of eighteen, do you want her to join the royal family's struggle?"
Miao Wujiang was stunned and subconsciously looked at Miao Qianqian.
“The higher the quality of the golden elixir, the more difficult it is to break through the Nascent Soul stage. Miss Miao condensed the Eight Desolate Golden Elixir with the Eight Desolate inheritance and has unlimited potential. What she needs now is to consolidate her cultivation. If she forcibly gives birth to the Nascent Soul, she will most likely ruin her bright future in cultivation and stop at the Spirit Transformation stage,” Li Yanmo said leisurely.
"Don't even mention whether the Eighth Prince can sit on the throne. Even if he does, do you think a Spiritual Transformation Stage cultivator is qualified to sit on the Queen's chair?"
"Since ancient times, the imperial family has been the most ruthless. What the emperor wants is not the queen, but the contribution that the queen can make to consolidate his royal power, that is, her family."
Miao Wujiang felt as if a stream of cold water was poured down on him. He shuddered all over and realized this possibility.
Ji Fa did promise to marry Miao Qianqian as his principal wife, but he never said that this principal wife could not be divorced.
Other concubines in the harem have the support of their natal families, but what does his Miao family have?
"Master Li, what you mean is..."
Li Yanmo did not answer Miao Wujiang, but looked at Miao Qianqian, "Ms. Miao, you have been practicing hard until now, is it just to become someone else's wife?"
Miao Qianqian's beautiful eyes slowly widened, and her tense body relaxed a little bit, and the dark cloud that had been weighing on her heart gradually dissipated.
"You two, listen to my advice. Although there is a saying that man proposes, God disposes, but putting your fate and your entire fortune in the hands of others is not God's will."
Li Yanmo smiled, picked up the teacup and started shaking it.
"What are your plans, you two?"
Miao Qianqian took a deep breath and looked at Miao Wujiang seriously. After a pause, she mustered up her courage and said, "Dad—"
"I understand," Miao Wujiang sighed, as if he had aged several years in an instant, but vitality seemed to emerge in his cloudy eyes, "The position of a dry king is not worth it."
Miao Qianqian clenched her fists and was about to stand up to salute Li Yanmo, but Li Yanmo spoke first.
"Okay, both of you, which prince gave you the confidence that you can convince me?"
After the Miao family father and daughter looked at each other, Miao Qianqian said slowly, "It was the people from the Tenth Prince's side. They said that the Eighth Prince will definitely become the Crown Prince."
