Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
“So the mastermind of this plan is the Wang family?”
Liao Ning was sitting in the president’s office of the Hunter Association. Zou Xu, the president of the Hunter Association, was sitting opposite Zhou Ling.
After dealing with the killers, Zou Xu brought Liao Ning and Zhou Ling to his office. The moment they stepped into the office, the familiar system notification sounded again.
[Congratulations for completing the mission: heading to Planet Mu’s Hunter Association safely. Reward: You have triggered and automatically completed the hidden mission. You have received Liao Ning’s identity clue. Please take note.]
As soon as the system finished speaking, Zou Xu revealed why he was looking for Liao Ning this time.
“The Wang family wants you dead. They offered the position at the headquarters of the Hunter Association on the capital planet to collude with me, like the Wei family did last time.” Zou Xu’s words solved the mystery that had troubled Liao Ning for a long time.
Liao Ning lowered her head and pondered over it. She didn’t understand what she had that was worthy of the Wei and Wang families, two of the five aristocratic families in the alliance, to go to such lengths to take her life.
Zhou Ling, who had been silent all this while, said, “You were also involved in the incident when Liao Ning was almost killed in the Misty Valley. Aren’t you afraid that the Wang and Wei families will find trouble with you?”
Zou Xu stroked his well-groomed mustache as he said with a smile, ‘You have to make a choice in everything. I was helping the Wei family as a bet last time, and I’m also helping Liao Ning as a bet this time.”
“I’m an orphan. From the time I could remember things, my goal has been to rise to the top. I don’t want to experience the misery and hardships of my childhood ever again. With my background, it’s already very impressive for me to obtain the position of the branch president of the Hunter Association. I’ve long gotten tired of dealing with official documents day in and day out for more than ten years. Whether I win this time or the Wang and Wei families win, it doesn’t matter. I have a lot of evidence against their subordinates, so the Wang and Wei families won’t dare to do anything to me.”
As he spoke, Zou Xu seemed to have thought of something and said to Liao
Ning mysteriously, “I still have a story about your grandma and the current head of the Wang family. Do you want to hear it?” The system had given her a lot of clues this time!
Liao Ning was overjoyed. “Of course.”
From Zou Xu, Liao Ning found out that her grandma Zhu Ying had a not-so-satisfactory romance with the Wang family’s Third Young Master when she was young.
“Zhu Ying was once a famous ancient food culture researcher in the alliance and she had a deep relationship with the Su family, one of the five great families of the alliance. She was very good friends with the eldest daughter of the Su family, Su Tang.”
Zou Xu glanced at Liao Ning and continued, “However, she went missing a year after she went to Planet Mu’s Misty Valley to look for ingredients. Su Tang, the eldest daughter of the Su family, had been searching for her friend’s whereabouts since then until she passed away.”
“I know about this. I want to know the story between my grandma and the Wang family’s Third Young Master.” Liao Ning was a little impatient.
Liao Ning was certain that the reason the Wang and Wei families were targeting her was related to the story of Zhu Ying and the Wang family’s Third Young Master.
Zou Xu said angrily, “Young people are so impatient. I’m almost there.”
In Zou Xu’s story, in order to find a difficult ingredient, Zhu Ying entered the depths of the Misty Valley alone. There, Zhu Ying met the third son of the
Wang family, Wang Jing. The sight of Wang Jing covered in blood shocked Zhu Ying, who couldn’t care less about finding the ingredients anymore and hurriedly carried Wang Jing out of the Misty Valley and sent him to a hospital on Planet Mu.
After Wang Jing recovered from his injuries, in order to repay Zhu Ying for saving his life, he went to Zhu Ying’s residence on Planet Mu every few days during his recuperation. After a while, the two of them gradually fell in love with each other.
Wang Jing was seriously injured and fainted in the depths of the Misty Valley back then because he had overused his mental strength to chase after an Alliance fugitive and was plotted against by the fugitive. As he didn’t use the mental strength potion in time, even after he recovered and was discharged from the hospital, he still suffered from headaches whenever he used his mental strength.
Wang Jing’s sequelae was due to not using the mental strength potion in time and the alliance didn’t have a treatment method. Therefore, when the Wang family’s head learned of this news, Wang Jing’s father had no choice but to give up on his son. He handed his position in the army to a nephew of the family.
Wang Jing knew that his family had already given up on him, so he started dating Zhu Ying in peace..
