Hao Ren and Hua Shuyan were sitting across each other and they were having a cup of tea. The young man replied, "This is good tea." The old lady nodded, and asked, "You have grown quite strong, but why haven't I seen your name in the fame list?" Hao Ren smiled and said, "Fame list records the people who have displayed great martial prowess. I, on the other hand, happen to be a businessman. I have eighteen branches of a restaurant called the Crescent Moon Restaurant, how will I appear in the list." Hua Shuyan nodded and said, "While you are correct, if you want to it will help you in your future goals." Hao Ren raised his brow and the lady said, "I am one of the Envoys of the Tower Of Light. Although I do not work with them directly, I still correspond to Lady Mei." The young man was surprised and asked, "How do you know her? I thought that the story about her helping you with the business was a cover." Hua Shuyan shook her head and replied, "Lady Mei did help me with my business, but that was not on the Blue Star, but this world. So, it was not a lie." Hao Ren understood and nodded, before he asked, "Well, what sort of gains are you talking about Grandma Hua?" Hua Shuyan thought for a bit and took a few sips of tea from her cup before she said, "Well, in a few coming months, there is going to be a martial arts and spiritual arts competition in the City. If you can climb the top ranks, not only will you make direct contact with the rich and affluent, but also get first hand information. To achieve a goal you must participate in it actively, for now, your approach is quite passive." Hao Ren nodded in understanding, Hua Shuyan was correct, he had been gathering information but it was still not yet convenient for him to make a move. He mumbled, "In the jungle only strong can make ripples." The old lady was shocked and asked, "Do you really have such a technique on your person?" Hao Ren nodded, he was not lying, forget about an Earth Level Technique, even if she wanted a Heaven Level Technique, he had hundreds of them in his system mall. He would be able to exchange them with spirit stones. This was the key to why he asked her to place her demand. Also, being a businessman, he knew what Hua Shuyan wanted and given her surprised reaction, it seemed to be very urgent, and since he had it in his hand, he could control the initiative. Hua Shuyan took a deep breath and said, "There are five forces in the capital city, Zhen family, they are orthodox Buddhist people, and one of the King's four concubines happen to be one of their gems. The second is the Shen family, they are always at odds with the Buddhist and the literary people. The Shen family is responsible for the northern front, Tiger Sabre Mountain." Hao Ren furrowed his brows, and Hua Shuyan continued, "The Jiang Family is the second military family, they are a bit lower in terms of status from the Shen Family, and handle the western front, the Napah City, and finally comes the Liang family, they are the descendants of the dukes, that handle the southern front and the governance of the cities all over the kingdom. Their ancestor is one of the royal guardians and thus they have high loyalty and high strength. Finally, the royal family, Hu. There are seven princes, and two princesses. The king is reaching the end of his lifetime and within another two decades the struggle for the throne will kick off. In this country, you need to showcase your strength to make them submit." Hao Ren nodded and said, "Your information is very useful, here is the technique you asked for.." ... After another hour Hao Ren came out of the teahouse and mumbled, "Well, it is about time to change gears."
