Miracle Throne Chapter 165

Chapter 165: Eternally lost problem

Chu Tian was casually drinking tea inside the restaurant with the little snow white fox curled up on his crossed legs.  It also had its legs crossed and looked like the perfect representation of its master.  Its two small claws were also holding a jade tea cup and even the way it drinked tea was exactly like its master.

Meng Qingwu was speechless!

It really is being influenced by someone else.  The cute little fox hadn't been with Chu Tian for long and it was already learning bad habits from its master.

Chu Tian was not ashamed at all, "This is the elven green tea that Old Yun has sent me.  Young miss, come have a cup!"

Meng Qingwu poured herself a cup and the delicious fragrance filled the air, making her body feel very comfortable.  It was as if her body's spirit energy had been cleansed, filling her with a wonderful sense of clarity.  This really was a good tea.

"Yingying has a shy personality and is always satisfied with trying to keep the peace.  It is rare to see something that makes her so excited."  Meng Qingwu's gentle autumn water like eyes stared at Chu Tian, "Sometimes, seeing her feeling tired after rus.h.i.+ng around all day, my heart feels pain.  I don't know whether this change is good for her."

Meng Qingwu's heart was divided.  On one hand, she wanted Yingying to always be motivated and for her to have enough strength to survive in this dog eat dog world.  On the other hand, she wished for Yingying to live a carefree life, never needing to worry about fighting or fame and fortune.

"Between the hard working Yingying or the carefree Yingying, which one do you think is happier?"

Meng Qingwu looked outside.

Her little sister's pet.i.te body was standing on the stage with one hand holding the loudspeaker and the other waving at something.  Her head was covered in sweat and her cheeks were red, but she was still pa.s.sionately shouting with a satisfied look on her face.

She just smiled and said nothing.

"But young miss, don't you feel like this matter is quite fishy?"  Chu Tian held the teacup and spoke with a serious aura, "How could an idiot like Yingying come up with this idea?  Perhaps we need to check if she's under spell!"

"Bad!  You don't know how to speak!  You're the one under a spell!"  Meng Qingwu's tall and proud chest surged forth.  She firmly defended her sister, completely ignoring this fellow's nonsense, "She works so hard because she wants to make up for her lack of talent, don't you know that?"

Hard working?

Stop joking.  Do you think I wouldn't know what this girl was up to?  She's almost half as lazy as me!

The reason why I entered your Meng Family, it was because she didn't want to do her homework!

"You shouldn't be so quick to judge.  After she used her Magic Mirror Source Spirit to copy my Heavenly Book Source Spirit, not only did she learn the details of some of Miracle Commerce's key technology, she even closes herself in her room everyday, cultivating and studying.  I don't know where she came up with the idea of the canned food, but in order to make it, she read dozens of books on cooking and obtained the help of several chefs  After working in secret for several days, this can be called the hard work she's produced."

Meng Yingying seemed very weak, but she was a very proud person.

She saw that Chu Tian was so smart, her sister was so skilled, and elder sister Nangong was so strong, but it was just her alone who had no intelligence, no skills, or fighting abilities.  How could she not be worried about being a flower vase?

The casual sentences Chu Tian had said before he left had filled her with inspiration.

A green clothed girl holding a loudspeaker walked in.  Her head was covered in sweat and her face was completely red, but she stood in front of them with a happy expression on her face, "It's all taken care of!"

That sweet voice was just like a lark's cry, easily producing goodwill in anyone that heard it.

"Elder sister, is there anything that needs to be improved!"

"No need!"  Meng Qingwu revealed a faint smile as she shook her head, "Have some tea and rest your body."

Meng Yingying giggled, "I'm not tired!  I'm feeling very happy right now!"

Actually Meng Yingying was a beautiful girl recognized by Chu Tian and he had the best relations.h.i.+p with her.  When Meng Yingying had taken him from the slave market, Chu Tian knew that from that day forth, he would take special care of Meng Yingying.

He would take care of her for a lifetime even if she was a flower vase!

Who would have thought that this careless and naive little girl would come up with this idea that shocked everyone.

Meng Yingying began to describe the current situation.

"Grand General Xiong Wuji has sent someone to order two hundred thousand cans of food from us!"

"A variety of large families, mercenary groups, and other companies have submitted orders for canned food ahead of time!"

"We haven't even opened up the factory yet and the orders are floating in like snowflakes!"

"Not bad!"  Chu Tian could not help but praise her, "Yingying's brand of canned food will become world famous!"

Meng Yingying's face turned red and she scratched her head in an embarra.s.sed manner, "I only gave an idea.  Throughout the development process of the canned food, elder sister helped me quite a bit.  Even the business strategy was something that elder sister helped me come up with."

Meng Qingwu gently said, "It is your accomplishment!  What does it have to do with me?"

"I say, you two sisters don't have to both be so humble!   You make it hard for others to tell if you even have a good relation or not!"  Chu Tian laughed, "You will be rewarded for your deeds!  We'll take out half the yearly profits from the canned food as your reward!  Just keep selling the canned food and expand the source energy restaurant's influence!"

Half of the yearly canned food profit as a reward?

This was too much!

"From this day on, Yingying will have full command of Miracle Dining."

Yingying asked in a surprised voice, "Then what about elder sister Nangong?"

"It's enough for Nangong to keep the vice president position.  Nangong will be developing other departments, so I'm afraid she won't have time to worry about the dining department."

Nangong Yun would become the head of Qilin Hall.  With her air of justice and martial spirit, she was destined to be an elder sister character.  With Yun Yao and Yun Xiao as a.s.sistants, they would be able to win over a large amount of little brothers and let their reputations be known throughout Central State!

While they were talking, a beautiful girl in a long robe walked in, "I'm sorry brother Chu!  We're late!"

Beautiful miss Feng was here.

Feng Caidie noticed the two girls as soon as she walked in.  The green clothed girl was very cute, whereas the white clothed girl was a country destroying beauty.  The two of them looked very similar and it was clear that they were sisters.

"This is Miracle Commerce's vice chairman Meng Qingwu and this is the president of Miracle Dining Meng Yingying who you should have saw outside earlier."  Chu Tian introduced everyone to each other, "This is the Divine Wind Marquis' daughter, Feng Caidie!  I've mentioned her before!"

"h.e.l.lo elder sister Caidie!"  Meng Yingying move forward with a warm welcome, "Elder sister is truly beautiful, no wonder that good for nothing fellow keeps mentioning you to us."

Chu Tian felt a little awkward.

What do you mean I kept mentioning her?

I only told you about her once!

"I haven't prepared much for the first visit."  Feng Caidie waved her hand and Xiang Hu quickly carried the box in.  Feng Caidie opened the lid, revealing the jade bottles, "These refined pills are useless to me, but they should be able to help you increase your strength quickly.  Please receive them."

Meng Qingwu was a little shocked, "This present…..it's too expensive!"

"It's not expensive at all."  Feng Caidie appropriately said, "Compared to the help you've given me, it's just a little repayment.  I hope you will accept this gift."

The sisters were a little conflicted.

Chu Tian saw this and said, "Then we'll accept young miss Feng's goodwill!"

Although the sisters would not have a strong battle potential, their cultivation bases still needed to be increased.

"I've actually come to find you for another important matter."  After Feng Caidie gave the present over to the sisters, she looked at Chu Tian with a serious face and said, "We're here to discuss the matter of the Central State Tower!"

The Central State Trials?

Chu Tian did not know much about it and was not very interested.

A trial!  It was just a place to train young people, so would there even be anything good there?

"The large civilizations of the continent have left countless treasures and the trials are one of them."  Feng Caidie said this and then suddenly changed the tone of her voice to ask, "Do you know why the trial was created?"

How could Chu Tian not know this, "Ancient clans and kingdoms built these trial areas to help train their talented youths with the main goal of increasing their strength."

"Not only that, there were some trials created by ancient sects that were meant to seek an appropriate successor for certain inheritances.  When sects are about to be eliminated, they would pour all their efforts into making a trial, so they cannot be underestimated."

"Is that so?"

"From the outer appearance, Central State Tower is very normal."

Chu Tian was a little surprised, "Is there a difference?"

"You shouldn't underestimate this opportunity!"  Feng Caidie was worried that with Chu Tian's personality of not putting anything in his eyes, he would waste this great opportunity, "First, the Central State Tower is not manmade.  It is very ancient and could possibly be a relic of an ancient civilization.  There are many incredible treasures that are buried and everyone who has partic.i.p.ated in the trial before has reaped rich rewards!  The Central State Four Great Families and the Feng Family go all out for a single spot in the trial, this is not an action without reason!"

This was also true!

Feng Caidie hesitated for a few minutes and then said something that normal people did not know about, "I've heard a secret from my father before.  There once was a scholar who had found a legend about the Central State Tower while exploring a ruin."

Chu Tian's eyes lit up, "What is it?!"

"Central State Tower has an eternally lost problem hidden within!"

"Eternally lost problem, what kind of problem is this!"

"This is the legend."  Feng Caidie shrugged and said, "But since it is an eternally lost problem, it is definitely very difficult.  From ancient times to the present, no one has solved it, but it is said that as long as someone can solve it, it would reveal an ancient secret or even the secret to transcend life and death……"

Pa!

The jade teacup was shattered.

Meng Qingwu and Meng Yingying were shocked.

The two of them had never seen Chu Tian like this.

Chu Tian had stood up and his entire aura had changed, as if he had become a completely different person, "Does this mystery truly exist?"

"It's only a legend and no one has seen it before, but since the legend can spread, then perhaps it isn't a rumour."  Feng Caidie never imagined that Chu Tian would be this interested in this topic, "If you want to know, then you've have to go in and search!"

Chu Tian returned to his previous appearance and he rubbed his chin as he said, "This is a little interesting!  It seems like I will need to research this!  What else is in the trial?"

"Survival!"  Feng Caidie continued, "The trial will present several survival challenges.  The longer one survives in the trial, the richer their rewards will be."

Feng Caidie pulled out a book from her sleeve, "This is experience left behind over fifty years from ten different trial partic.i.p.ants, I hope it will be of help to you!"

"The preceders' experiences will be just for reference.  The trial's composition will be changing and will be different every time, but the original goal will be the same.  It will test one's strength, knowledge, and destiny!"

The technology used to create this trial tower was not simple.

For the Southern Summer Country barren in spiritual qi, this is a wondrous trial that should not have appeared.  However, the continent's spiritual veins were constantly changing and perhaps in ancient times, this area's spiritual qi was not as desolate as it was now.

"The trials will start soon!  Study the notes well.  Caidie will no longer bother brother Chu!  I'll be leaving first!"

Before Feng Caidie left, she asked Meng Yingying for a few cans of food, so she could give them to the Divine Wind Marquis to have a taste.  Meng Yingying did not dare to not give her some and she gave Caidie a full box.
