Chapter 725 Yuwen
Chapter 725 Yuwen
As Lith pondered over the possible threats, his thoughts slowly shifted towards finding solutions for the same.
'I should not think too far into the future and see what I can do at present. A million presents can save me from the problems of a billion future if I make use of the things I currently have.'
Thinking so, Lith turned around and flipped the pages in the book he was writing a few seconds ago.
Having a look at it, Lith snapped his finger and Luna appeared right behind him, bowed and asked,
"Yes, Your Highness?"
"Luna, where's the blonde-haired guy I asked you to take care of? The one related to the Senzal Kenzal conflict." Lith mentioned.
Luna took out a tablet from thin air and typed in a few things on it.
A second later, she said, "He's currently in Auckland, a city in the Human Continent under the rule of Emperor Graham Novius."
Lith nodded. "What's he doing? And did he exact his revenge?"
"Yes, Your Highness. Wan and Ling had captured the people and this person took out his deep concealed hatred on them." Luna answered.
Lith smiled. "Good. His mental state must be in its peak condition, yes?"
Luna nodded. "Seems like it. He's involved in trade and commerce, a travelling merchant that does trade in the rural areas and stays away from the urban ones."
"Oh? What's the state of his business and what's with his rank?" Lith was interested in this now.
"His net worth is greater than the clan he previously was in. He has amassed a few treasures at just Rank 8. If he was given proper guidance, I am sure he would've reached at least Half-Saint Rank." Luna gave out her analysis.
Lith was happy to hear this. "Was he given help by us or was it all him?"
"There were some opportunities given by us, they were really difficult to grasp, but he succeeded in having those. The opportunities we gave him are…"
One by one, Luna explained everything about this guy.
His name was Yuwen and apparently he had a gift of economics. He understood trade and commerce really well and according to Luna, the World Merchant Association was keeping an eye on him because he was really talented.
Luna also explained that Yuwen was grateful to Lith since he was the one to take him out of the miserable life. He was also happy to start a small business and it was flourishing to such a degree because Lith gave him a push.
Lith had only met him once but he had his servants keep an eye on him.
Yuwen grew quite a lot and Lith was happy with it.
"I wanna see him." Lith said.
"I'll have someone bring him then." Luna started drawing something in the air and it glowed in a neon green color.

Auckland, Villmer.
It was a bright sunny day. The grass was fluttering with the breeze and the skies were clear while the sun hung out in the middle.
A merchant caravan passed through a grassy road and was on its way towards a small village in the outskirts of Auckland.
Unlike the Nightmare beasts which only the Vampire Royal Family used, the carriages that these merchants had were being pulled by low level monsters and beasts.
There was a giant toad, grasshopper, slug, and so on among the things that were pulling the carriages.
The toad would jump ahead but the carriage would remain intact due to magic and let it be pulled ahead.
It cost them a fortune to have these spells be put, but it was worth the money.
In the middle of this caravan, there was a blonde-haired youth, sitting and documenting his business deals.
He wore simple merchant robes and all around him were bags of different grains.
It was yet another normal day for the youth until…
Spatial fluctuations occurred and there appeared a beautiful woman with black horns in the carriage wearing a maid outfit.
The youth was startled but was smart enough to keep his calm.
If this woman could teleport so easily in front of him, she could also easily kill him without him knowing.
The fact that he was alive meant this woman had some business with him.
"How may I help you?" The youth, Yuwen, asked calmly.
The maid, with a calm expression, said, "His Highness wants to see you."
"His Highness?" Yuwen didn't understand. There were many people in the world who went by this form of address.
The maid nodded. "Yes. Would you be willing to come with me?"
The maid didn't force or order Yuwen to do things. She asked him like a normal person to give him an option to back out if he wanted to.
Yuwen was surprised by this as it wasn't normal for commoners like him to hear questions such as these.
Being slightly suspicious of things, Yuwen asked, "what happens when I refuse?"
The maid shook her head. "Nothing."
Yuwen was greatly surprised by this. "May I ask, who is this person you're taking me to?"
"No." The maid said flatly.
Yuwen sighed. What sort of situation was this?
This seemed risky yet his intuition told him that if he rejected it, he would suffer a loss that he would never be able to recover in his whole life.
Yuwen had never felt such a thing before, but since his intuition was always correct, he nodded and agreed to go with the maid.
The maid nodded and gave Yuwen a talisman to hold.
In the next instant, the two disappeared from the caravan.

Royal Castle, Nightingale.
As Yuwen teleported out, his eyes opened wide to see an atmosphere never before seen in his life.
Everything was dark and gloomy, there was a crimson-colored moon in the sky.
Everything was so creepy and scary that it made him rethink his decision.
However, his gaze then fell on the towering dark castle right behind him.
Yuwen's jaw dropped looking at how majestic it was, despite being completely dark.
He was currently being taken somewhere by the maid and as he passed through the hallways, everything reeked of luxury and made him drool.
Yuwen knew that just a small piece of the carpet he was walking on could sell at such a high price that he could live happily for a whole year without having to work.
One painting on the wall could sell for so much that he wouldn't even need to work for at least a century.
Yuwen had little to no idea where he was or who was going to meet, but having had a look at such a luxurious place lit a fire within him to work harder and establish such a castle of his own one day.
"Am I—"
"Shh." The maid gestured Yuwen to be quiet. "Speak when asked to."
Yuwen nodded. He would be quiet then.
Once the two walked for around twenty minutes, they finally reached a courtyard where Yuwen saw a heaven-defying beauty and a man so handsome that even men would want to wish to be with him.
Yuwen's gaze didn't fall on the woman as the man seemed too divine to take his eyes away.
As Yuwen walked closer and had a proper look at the man, he immediately froze on his spot and thought,
'IT'S HIM!?'
