Genius Summoner

Chapter 345: International Competition (2)

The emperor looked even more sullen as Yun Feng talked. Sitting in the host’s seat, he tapped the back of his hand now and then in silence.

Yun Feng was right. This international contest was just a disguise. The royal families of the four empires had all kept the relics a secret, because the ten representatives they sent out weren’t all from the royal families. Some of them might be from other famous families, which would demand a share in the relics once they learned about it. How could the royal families possibly refuse them? In such a case, the royal families would gain much less loot from the relics, and suffer a direct loss!

Getting to the bottom of it, the contest was all about letting others fight for the interests of the royal families. The exchange was quite blatant.

“Your eyes are quite keen, aren’t they?” The emperor coldly glanced at Yun Feng, and Yun Feng wore the same smile. “I’ve made my offer. In fact, I have nothing to lose. The worst I can expect is that I don’t get to participate in the exploration. However, I dare not promise that other families won’t learn the matter.”

The emperor suddenly realized that it might have been a mistake to negotiate with Yun Feng all along. He was the emperor of a great country, yet he had been cornered by a little girl. The emperor was rather infuriated, and gnashed his teeth due to Yun Feng’s threat of telling the other families. If other families learned of the relics, they would definitely make a fuss!

If the Karan Royal Family did win the qualification of exploration, it certainly wouldn’t share with other families! Three openings in the team weren’t too much. If other families learned of the matter, more than three openings would have to be given away!

The emperor weighed the pros and cons and finally made a decision. The Karan Empire depended on Yun Feng if it wanted to become the champion. For hundreds of years, only one of the four empires had had a summoner, until Yun Feng emerged at this critical moment!

The Karan Empire would surely become the champion! The emperor was determined to win!

“Alright, I’ll give you three openings!” The emperor relaxed and finally spoke. Yun Feng smiled, knowing that the emperor couldn’t go back on his word easily. “You’re truly generous, Your Majesty. In that case, we have a deal.”

The emperor was greatly relieved. Now that Yun Feng had accepted the request, the Karan Empire would almost surely win. “Alright, I’ll wait for your good news.”

Yun Feng chuckled. That fox didn’t want to suffer any loss? Hehe. How could anyone who negotiated with Yun Feng not suffer loss?

Yun Feng chatted with the emperor for a while longer. The emperor asked her to take a tour in the royal palace, and Yun Feng accepted. She roamed along the path. Little Fire asked telepathically, “Why didn’t you ask for more openings? You could’ve asked for ten!”

Yun Feng chuckled. “I couldn’t be too outrageous. The royal family has boundaries. I must gain maximal benefit within their toleration. Three openings are enough for me.”

“Master, if Brother Fire and I each take up an opening, won’t it be an unfair deal for you?” asked Lan Yi, frowning. Yun Feng smiled. “I didn’t say that Magic Beasts count as members of the team…”

Both Little Fire and Lan Yi chuckled. It seemed that their master was truly clever, and she wouldn’t suffer any loss from the deal. Yun Feng was in a better mood. Her ancestor must know about the Relics of Gods. She could ask him after she returned. If she could pick up any useful items from there, it would be very important to her.

Yun Feng found herself in what seemed to be a garden after she took a turn down the path. This place was more crowded. Servants could be seen passing by. However, they all screamed and ran off when they saw Little Fire. Some even accidentally bumped into walls.

“Stupid human beings. Bummers,” Little Fire couldn’t help but mumble, while scornfully staring at the cowardly servants. Yun Feng smiled. Their reaction was understandable. Little Fire’s unexpected presence was a major test for their heart. Besides, they were just ordinary folk, and truly weak.

The weaklings were inevitably awed and scared in the presence of strong experts. In particular, Little Fire was so strong that it was evincing a panicking pressure. No wonder the servants were running off.

“Yuntian, where are you going? Wait for me!” Yun Feng heard a familiar voice drawing close. She glanced in a certain direction, and saw a person emerging from the corner over there. Yun Feng nodded at him as a greeting, while the man seemed to be dumbfounded. He simply gazed at Yun Feng earnestly.

“Yuntian, what are you doing here? You…” Kasa’s voice chased him. Soon, she appeared too. After she saw Yun Feng, she suddenly changed her expression. “Y-Yun Feng, you—you’re here…”

Kasa’s voice shivered, perhaps because she saw Lan Yi and Little Fire next to Yun Feng. She would never forget what she went through with that winged man and the particularly brutal Fire Cloud Wolf… She suddenly held Murong Yuntian’s hand, hoping to absorb courage from him, but he threw her hand off quickly.

Kasa raised her head. When she saw how attentively Murong Yuntian was staring at Yun Feng, flames of jealousy were burning in her heart. That man had never looked at her in such a way! She had chased him for years, but he never even bothered to look back at her! Yet, he was staring at another woman with so much concentration at this moment!

Kasa glared at Yun Feng, but withdrew her gaze after seeing Little Fire and Lan Yi. She found herself a coward, but she was haunted by her fear, and didn’t have her usual arrogance when she faced Yun Feng. However, she still hated Yun Feng for stealing the attention of the man she had devoted herself to.
