Chapter 869: Come Over to Say It

Zong Ze tilted his head and stepped closer to Lin Yuan.

Since Zong Ze was taller than Lin Yuan, it looked like he was smelling Lin Yuan's hair to see if it smelled bad.

Even in his weak state back in the Xia Region, Lin Yuan would still shower every day no matter how tired he was. This had not changed despite him being stronger now.

Moreover, he had used the Silver Stamen Gold l.u.s.ter Ca.s.sia nectar to cleanse his body of impurities. His hair would not smell bad even if he did not shower for the rest of his life.

Suddenly, he thought about how Zong Ze had said that he smelled great.

At that moment, Lin Yuan realized that Zong Ze had been referring to the smell of the Possess Star Intelligent Dark Clouds pollen.

Lin Yuan looked at Zong Ze strangely.

The Possess Star Intelligent Dark Clouds pollen was special in that only those afflicted by bad luck could detect its scent.

The stronger the bad luck, the more appealing the scent of the Possess Star Intelligent Dark Clouds pollen.

When Lin Yuan ate the Possess Star Intelligent Dark Clouds pollen, he did not smell anything at all. There was only a slightly spicy sting in his throat.

Could Zong Ze also have bad luck on him? wondered Lin Yuan.

Lin Yuan picked up a small amount of pollen from the Spirit Lock spatial zone that had fallen on the work table and crushed it between his fingers.

He immediately saw a look of excitement cross Zong Ze's face and Zong Ze's sniffing intensified. He looked almost like a dog.

Now that he had tested it, Lin Yuan had confirmed his guess.

Zong Ze did have bad luck stuck to him.

Judging from how sensitive Zong Ze was to the pollen, his bad luck had to be quite severe.

Zong Ze was an unfriendly person and did not say anything much after he inserted himself into Lin Yuan's group.

Gu Lang was a warm person. After his pointed efforts to extend his friends.h.i.+p, Lin Yuan, Liu Jie, Long Tao, Li Xuan, Gao Feng, and Sun Ningxiang all started chatting comfortably with him.

The other young disciples of veteran and top factions were even more envious of this group now.

Zheng Kaiyuan was addressed as 'Second Young Master' wherever he went in Indigo Azure City. But ever since Miao Zhuo had been kicked out, Zheng Kaiyuan had lost his main source of support and had to be cautious in everything that he did.

He initially intended on partic.i.p.ating in the Martial Stage. But in his panic, he decided against joining in the end.

Before the Guard Ye Banquet, Miao Qi had instructed him to stick by Miao Zhuo's side.

Now that such a serious matter had happened to Miao Zhuo, he would be implicated no matter how much Miao Qi adored him.

The Miao family would even abandon the Zheng family out of rage.

As he thought about the situation that awaited him in the near future, Zheng Kaiyuan mustered up his strength and walked toward Lin Yuan's group.

He wanted to ask Chief Guard Ye's disciple if he could forgive Miao Zhuo and because he felt that his friendly nature might give him a chance to join the group and become friends with Chief Guard Ye, Chef Supreme, and the Bamboo Monarch's disciples.

Zheng Kaiyuan felt his legs tremble with every step. The group that he was approaching had a status so high that he would never be able to compare to them.

Not even Miao Zhuo, who Zheng Kaiyuan had to keep his head lowered around, could compare to those young men's status.

Otherwise, Miao Zhuo would not have suffered a soul injury after making the slightest mistake.

Zong Ze immediately frowned when he saw Zheng Kaiyuan walking over.

The cold and distant Zong Ze always hated people approaching him at such events. Hence, his expression started to become colder. He would have yelled at Zheng Kaiyuan to get lost if this was any other time.

Zong Ze was unaware of the confrontation that had taken place outside the palace and did not know what kind of relations.h.i.+p Zheng Kaiyuan and Lin Yuan had.

If Zheng Kaiyuan turned out to be Lin Yuan's friend, Zong Ze's explosion of anger would be seen as rude. As such, Zong Ze suppressed his annoyance,

Liu Jie instinctively stepped in front of Lin Yuan when he saw Zheng Kaiyuan approaching.

He had not forgotten about how he and the rest of Lin Yuan's group had been attacked outside Indigo Azure City.

Jiao Hanzhong had been from the Zheng family's third lineage and technically did not have a direct connection to Zheng Kaiyuan.

However, Zheng Kaiyuan had been the one who sent Nightmare VI. This had led to the enmity between Zheng Kaiyuan and them.

If they were not currently outside the Midnight Palace and it was inappropriate for Liu Jie to publicly attack Zheng Kaiyuan despite being the Midnight Palace's Young Liege, Zheng Kaiyuan would have been a dead man.

Zheng Kaiyuan was about to tentatively greet the group and was surprised by Chief Guard Ye's disciple's standoffishness.

Could it be because of that confrontation?

Miao Zhuo had been the main instigator of the confrontation, and all he had done was stand next to Miao Zhuo.

When Lin Yuan saw Zheng Kaiyuan timidly walking over, he immediately knew what Zheng Kaiyuan wanted to do.

A knowing smile appeared on Lin Yuan face, and he gestured to Zheng Kaiyuan, saying, "If you have something to say, come over to say it,"

Zheng Kaiyuan's timidness turned to surprised happiness.

Liu Jie looked at Lin Yuan in confusion as he did not understand what Lin Yuan was trying to do.

Lin Yuan and Zheng Kaiyuan quickly exchanged contact information and did not engage Zheng Kaiyuan any further.

After his ident.i.ty was announced at the Guard Ye Banquet, the Miao family would definitely try to come up with ways to apologize to him and Liu Jie.

Lin Yuan had not rejected Zheng Kaiyuan's attempt to talk to him and even exchanged contact details because he wanted the other disciples of veteran and top factions to get the wrong idea that he and Zheng Kaiyuan had formed a connection. He also wanted to give the Miao family a way to contact him so that he would be able to sit and wait for them to walk into his trap.

There was more than one way to defeat one's enemies. A conniving poisonous scheme always produced a more devastating effect than a direct confrontation.

At that moment, Zuo Ming and You Zhe led the rest of the Martial Arts Stage's partic.i.p.ants out of the long corridor to the area outside the palace.

Lin Yuan took a deep breath, for he knew that the real battle was about to begin.
