Chapter 527: A Need For Change

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“Having met Archduke Qing You today, how do you feel?”

“He is very powerful… Powerful enough to make me sense the danger as if my soul is held at knifepoint. If he makes a move, 1 won’t stand a chance!” Beneath the golden mask of the Dark Valkyrie, her deep eyes showed admiration.

It was the first time Su Wan heard the Dark Valkyrie speak like this.

“You haven’t ascended to the legendary rank yet, so it’s strange to expect to win against a cultivator like an ascetic.” Su Wan smiled.

Archduke Qing You was only a step away from being a demigod.

“Someday, 1 will defeat him,” muttered the Dark Valkyrie. Her eyes were filled with determination.

This new hero who emerged from the Death Arena wasn’t weak.

In the City Lord’s Mansion, upon hearing the report from the servants that the Lavender Guild Carriage had already left, Archduke Qing You leaned back in his chair and closed his eyes.

Tonight’s conversation held significant importance for the territory, but what outsiders didn’t know was that it was equally crucial for Canglan City.

He needed to think seriously about the future of Canglan City.

That Lord had indeed posed a challenging question for him.

Bayion propped her chin on her hand and stared at the archway, which was now empty. She smiled absentmindedly.

Apart from the two of them, there was also an elderly man who was over seventy years old. He had a head full of white hair and was impeccably dressed. He was the butler to the archduke.

“Your Excellency, don’t you feel like we promised them too quickly?” The elderly man cleared his throat.

“What do you think we should do?” Archduke Qing You asked softly with his eyes still closed.

“Perhaps we can negotiate more conditions and even obtain some management rights of the Tasiria Plane. 1 believe Lord Su Wan will make some concessions.” Su Wan needed allies and the support of Canglan City.

“It’s not that Su Wan particularly needs Canglan City to back her up. We might need her as an ally instead,” said Archduke Qing You. He opened his eyes and looked at his butler.

“Why would Canglan City need a Lord?” asked the old butler. He was surprised at the prospect.

Even if a Lord obtained a plane and integrated many other Lords there, they were like driftwood. They came and they went. They couldn’t compare to Canglan City.

Furthermore, that particular Lord had plenty of competitors. Although the Tasiria Plane was ahead of its time, all major powers knew its value as a trading center and wouldn’t allow it to grow unchecked.

Soon, countless other Tasiria Planes would emerge.

Without any armies to defend, the Lords would be dispersed again.

The old butler had valid reasons for his argument.

“The most critical factor is the Lords themselves. They are the future. The key to opening the door to a new world. Su Wan might be holding that key right now!” Archduke Qing You was deep in thought.

No other trade center established by others, no matter how grand their momentum, could possibly compare to Su Wan’s.

After all, she was the Godslayer and the strongest Lord.

Even though it was due to the dragon by her side, it was an undeniable fact that Su Wan had killed a god and was always getting stronger.

“After the third prince visits Lord Su Wan, bring him to see me. It’s time for the Holy Kingdom to change, and perhaps a new king could bring a new dawn. Bayion, during this time, you can go to the Lavender Business Guild and exchange ideas with Lord Su Wan,” said Archduke Qing You.

“Really, Father?” Bayion’s eyes lit up. She was delighted.

“In a while, I will open the family’s forbidden grounds. During the next six months, you won’t have a chance to go out.” Archduke Qing You looked at his beloved daughter.

The situation had become increasingly uncertain, and Archduke Qing You couldn’t guarantee that Canglan City would remain safe for her.

He had to pass the things left behind by Bayion’s mother to his daughter!

Strength was the only significant thing in this world. Canglan City needed enough strength to secure its heir and ensure her safety.

Early the next morning, Su Wan, Xu Yuan, and Mestre finished their breakfast.

“Is President Nami still in Canglan City these days?”

Su Wan had been busy dealing with Archduke Qing You yesterday and didn’t have time to visit the Qing You Pavilion Chamber of Commerce.

She still needed to discuss the reward for the S-class mission she completed last time.

Moreover, during this period, Crimson Moon hadn’t made any major moves. Everything had been too quiet.

When things deviated from the norm, there was almost always something wrong.

Su Wan really wanted to know what the Crimson Moon had planned next, as it was crucial for her territory as well.

“President Nami previously instructed me to inform her as soon as you visit. Yesterday, 1 sent a message to the Qing You Pavilion Chamber of Commerce. President Nami will be back this morning.”

“Prepare the carriage. We’re going to the Qing You Pavilion Chamber of Commerce,” Su Wan said.

Mestre didn’t waste any time and immediately prepared a carriage. Forty minutes later, they arrived at the Qing You Pavilion Chamber of Commerce.

As soon as the carriage stopped, Su Wan saw another carriage with the Qing You Pavilion crest approaching from a little distance away. It parked right in front of the pavilion.

The carriage door was opened by a maid who had been stationed there. An elegant figure descended from the carriage.

Her dress was embroidered with blooming roses. Her cold gaze was filled with authority and power.

The guards didn’t dare look at her directly. They placed their hands on their chests and bowed in respect and reverence.

“Madam President.”

At this moment, Su Wan and Xu Yuan also got off their carriage. Su Wan looked at the figure that had just alighted from the carriage.

When she saw Su Wan, she smiled.

“Lord Su Wan, Lord Xu Yuan, it’s been a long time! I haven’t thanked you properly for what you did for me last time.” Nami approached Su Wan.

“It was yours anyway. If you feel indebted, just give us a few artifacts as gifts.” Su Wan smiled.

“1 do have some in my possession, but they are not suitable for you.” Nami chuckled.

“I was just joking.”

“Although there are no artifacts suitable for you, 1 have prepared something. If used properly, its effect is on par with divine artifacts,” said Nami.

Su Wan’s eyes lit up in delight..
