Chapter 1083: Necro Alliance
When Zhao Xin explained that her top-notch hackers were defeated, it further cemented Xu Feng’s belief that the enemy was most likely the Miracle Pavilion.
Their Miracle Chamber of Commerce must have been hit hard because of Xu Feng’s recent antic.
Otherwise, they wouldn’t have made such a large move to target him.
Not to mention, Zhao Xin’s company involvement in the Divine World was one of the pioneers to the public. For them to find the situation difficult to uncover and resolve meant the opposing power had to be even more influential.
The Miracle Pavilion fit the description, and based on how news was leaked from their side. It appeared that they wanted others to know it was their doing as well.
After buckling in the seatbelt, Xu Feng revealed bits of what he knew without exposing Ning Yi’s involvement. It wasn’t that he didn’t trust Zhao Xin, but it was unnecessary to speak of the matter.
A few moments later, Zhao Xin knitted her brows. She frowned at the news and realized the matter was more complicated than she initially thought.
"Ugh, your Guild Leader really knows how to trample on others." She pursed her lips and commented on Lin Feng’s actions.
"Your guild kept emphasizing that you won’t purposely cause trouble for others, but by making your own chamber of commerce, that was no different than throwing dirt at the Miracle Pavilion."
"I don’t agree with the comment."
Xu Feng understood where Zhao Xin was coming from. Unfortunately, understanding didn’t mean accepting.
What gave the Miracle Pavilion the right to be the sole owner of a chamber of commerce?
Just because they were the most successful ones in previous VRMMORPGs and in the real world, didn’t mean they could monopolize the Divine World’s market as well.
"Does the Miracle Pavilion own the Divine World?" Xu Feng raised the question.
"They don’t, but their financial status and connection enable them to continue a monopolization." Zhao Xin naturally understood what Xu Feng was thinking as well.
Hence, she hoped to explain the matter softly and more in-depth so that he could also understand why there weren’t many other Super Guilds creating their own chamber of commerce.
"You have to know that the higher one climbs, the higher their caution needs to be. And by caution, I don’t mean things on the surface, but things on the inside, such as interpersonal and complex connections."
Nodding, Xu Feng listened to her explanation with a calm expression.
"Then, Miss Xin, may I know if you have considered such caution when you decided to commence Project Genesis?" He responded with a question of his own.
Sure enough, Zhao Xin’s facial complexion turned ugly in the blink of an eye.
What Xu Feng just asked was no different than calling her out for doing the same thing as the Vanguard Guild. When she decisively created Project Genesis, she received much opposition from the shareholders because of the numerous implications.
However, she managed to completely win them over once the shareholders realized the amount of profits made and how much they would receive.
In the end, they fully supported the project and outright declared that anyone who dares to block their path to wealth shall bear the consequences of financial warfare.
As the atmosphere turned quite tense and awkward, Anna Liu suddenly coughed.
"Ahem, sorry to interrupt the conversation, but I wish to remind you that we are here to support Young Master Kai in his completion." She calmly said.
Now that Zhao Kai was acknowledged and integrated into the Zhao Family, Anna Liu also changed her form of address to him as Young Master.
Upon hearing that, both Xu Feng and Zhao Xin flashed a bittersweet smile.
Indeed, they were so immersed and heated about the Divine World matter that they forgot about their main objective. There wasn’t even a point in discussing further when Zhao Xin had essentially safeguarded Xu Feng’s identity as Cool Wind.
Sometime later, Anna Liu began driving to the City Competition venue.
"Have you been keeping a check on Kai’s progress?" Xu Feng asked. He may have been hyper-focused on the Divine World, but he still made sure to keep a check on him. However, to ensure Zhao Kai was in his top form, he refused to show himself after the first match.
"Of course, I do." Zhao Xin replied. "Grandfather has been so happy lately and has kept talking about his achievements. The higher Kai rises, the wider my grandfather’s smile becomes."
The City Competition was a major event, and for someone like Zhao Gaofu, it was something he could take pride in.
"I’m sure he’s definitely happy about it and forgot about the non acknowledgment on Kai." Xu Feng said sarcastically. He disapproved and disdained Zhao Gaofu’s decision and stubborn mindset.
If it weren’t for Zhao Kai caring for this family, then Xu Feng would have long taught them a severe lesson. After all, he was also treated harshly by them in the past timeline when he accompanied him to greet the Zhao Family.
"By the way, what happened to your two eldest brothers?" Knowing that Zhao Gaofu was a sore topic for Zhao Xin, he decided to opt for another target.
Her two eldest brothers, Zhao Ming and Zhao Heng had been quite silent lately. It was totally not their style to stay put, especially when Zhao Xin assumed full control of the enterprise, followed by Zhao Kai’s regaining his status and part of the inheritance.
Speaking about those two, Zhao Xin’s expression turned ugly.
"Let’s not even talk about them." She pursed her lips and felt her blood boiling whenever she recalled their actions.
"Those two actually sold some of our trade secrets to competitors and created their own company."
"Deserved for letting them know about trade secrets."
"I forgot to mention this, but their company started to partner with another company called Necro Alliance."
"..."
As soon as she finished speaking, Xu Feng’s expression also turned ugly.
"This better not be the same Necro Alliance that appeared in the Divine World."
"I had my hackers investigated before they were defeated. It’s true. They are now openly recruiting every bounty tag player with great incentives to target specific people and groups."
