209: Chapter 209 Seeking Help from the Chu Family

This way of handling things… was indeed very unique, and it made the decision of whether to meet or not the choice of the Tower Lord.

"There's even this kind of operation... they don't even need to ask what it's for? Just meet if you want to." Mu Cheng, who was beside them, was indeed very shocked.

Even a waiter can report to the CEO; anyone else would probably be the same...

In reality, it wasn't like that. When the three of them stepped into Worlds Number One Tower, all their information had already been thoroughly investigated.

Little Demon Mu Cheng was nothing special, but with the identity of Little Demon Fox Emperor from Super Ability Academy.

Soon, the waitress politely said, "Three distinguished guests, please follow me!"

Led by the waitress, they soon arrived at the top-floor office.

As expected of Worlds Number One Tower, almost all offices were standardly equipped with a set of sofas and an exquisite tea set.

And the office area wasn't very large either...

"You can go down first! The three of you, please sit on the sofa and chat." A woman's voice came as soon as they entered the door.

The Spirit Cat Tribe waitress quickly left.

The woman was wearing a black suit, with a pair of large glasses, and she was a bit older.

She was indeed an old auntie, but her temperament... was no less impressive than any young person.

Little Demon Fox Emperor didn't stand on ceremony with her and sat on the sofa. "We want to take an airship."

"You are Sister Jiu from Super Ability Academy, right? It might be difficult to take an airship recently." Chu Yu, the woman, also sat down and replied.

Little Demon was not at all polite. "We are informing you, not asking you to decide."

Mu Cheng next to her was dumbfounded, but he didn't say much...

"Are you threatening me?" Chu Yu asked seriously.

Seeing the atmosphere, Little Demon Fox Emperor smiled and said, "No, this isn't a threat; it's indeed an announcement."

"As for what choice to make, that's your business."

She thought it might come to a fight if things continued this way.

But to her surprise, Chu Yu's attitude suddenly changed drastically.

"I'm truly sorry, I was out of line just now... Taking an airship is not an easy matter. There are only three seats every three days."

"So, this matter is not something I can decide."

"No problem, no problem. Then you can go back and ask for instructions." Little Demon Fox Emperor was also not polite at all, showing no regard for her feelings.

"It seems Sister Jiu must have her reasons for doing this." Mu Cheng was still bewildered.

But he knew very well that there must be some logic behind it.

"Alright, I'll give you a reply within ten minutes. As for the cost, it's ten million star-glow crystals per person. Please wait a moment." Chu Yu finished speaking and left.

On one side was Super Ability Academy, and on the other was the family patriarch... She, who had no real power, indeed couldn't make this decision.

"By the way... can you tell me what's going on?" Mu Cheng asked quietly.

Little Demon: "It's about the rules of Worlds Number One Tower; Super Ability Academy's requests must be prioritized."

"Mhm, it seems things won't be that simple. At least it's possible that the Chu Family, which manages Worlds Number One Tower, doesn't want to follow the rules," Little Demon Fox nodded and said.

Mu Cheng then understood. "So that's how it is... It seems things are indeed not that simple."

On one hand, as the direct manager, she couldn't call the shots, and on the other hand, there was this rule... the Chu Family might take it seriously.

On the other side, Chu Yu initiated a video call in the office.

Soon, three old men connected.

"You girl, are you lawless? Don't come asking for instructions for every little thing all day long. If that's the case, what use are you?" Before Chu Yu could even speak, the old man on the right, who was a numerical entity, spoke.

The old man on the left, who was also a numerical entity: "Hurry up and tell us! What's the situation? What big matter can't be decided again?"

The old man in the middle, also a numerical entity, remained silent, as if he wasn't even there.

"It's Sister Jiu from Super Ability Academy; she wants to take an airship three days from now." Chu Yu told the truth.

"Super Ability Academy? Do they think Worlds Number One Tower is theirs to open?" The old man on the left, who was a numerical entity, instantly became furious.

The old man on the right, who was a numerical entity, instantly changed his attitude. "This is indeed difficult to handle. On one side is the Blood Clan, and on the other is Super Ability Academy."

"This matter is indeed difficult, but the rules cannot change; Super Ability Academy must be prioritized," the old man in the middle, who was a mathematical entity, said.

The old man on the left, who was a numerical entity: "Big Brother, isn't this inappropriate? Besides, this Battlefield is not a place where Super Ability Academy can act lawlessly."

"Second Brother, Big Brother is right... this matter cannot break the rules; Super Ability Academy must be prioritized." The one on the right was displeased.

Chu Yu, feeling the difficulty, didn't waste words... and turned to leave.

"I'll be right back. You elders can chat among yourselves."

...The video call didn't hang up; the three were still arguing back and forth.

But she had promised Little Demon Fox Emperor a result within ten minutes, so Chu Yu had to return to the previous office.

"I'm truly sorry, three distinguished guests. There was a slight unexpected issue over there, and it might take some more time to make a decision."

Little Demon Fox Emperor: "Let's sit down and have a good chat!"

"Indeed... I still couldn't hide it from you." Chu Yu sat down and went straight to the point.

"Although I am the manager, the real power is in the hands of the three family elders."

"Saying this is useless. Just tell me... who exactly doesn't want to follow the rules?" Little Demon didn't waste words.

Chu Yu said helplessly, "It's the Second Elder, relying on his relationship with the Blood Clan nobles."

"Is it these three guys? Should I just revoke their permissions?" Mu Cheng said, operating his high-tech bracelet.

Little Demon Fox Emperor: "No rush, no rush. It's not too late to do it after they make a decision."

"You... are the Devouring Bloodline possessor?" Chu Yu instantly reacted, suddenly asking very nervously.

It was also Mu Cheng who spoke too obviously, so it wasn't too difficult to guess.

"Mhm, let's still listen to Sister Jiu and wait for them to make a decision! Anyway, we won't be boarding the airship anytime soon," Mu Cheng said without concealing anything.

The identity of Super Ability Academy indeed required careful consideration before making a decision...

However, a Devouring Bloodline possessor was different; they were the true owner of Worlds Number One Tower.

That's why Little Demon said earlier that it was an announcement, not a threat...

After waiting a full hour, the result finally came: they did not comply with the rules but rejected the request...

"The result is out... The three elders decided to give the slot to the Blood Clan." Chu Yu rushed in again, flustered.

Little Demon Fox Emperor instantly asked with great interest, "Specifically, which noble of the Blood Clan? Can you tell me?"

"It's the Bandel Family." Chu Yu answered readily.

Little Demon Fox Emperor thought for a moment and said, "Could it be... really him?"

"Hey! Sister Jiu... you're acting a bit strange." Little Demon suddenly asked with great interest.

Mu Cheng also asked with curiosity, "Sister Jiu... you should honestly explain!"

"Are you two done yet? Why would I explain anything to you?" Little Demon Fox Emperor cursed.

Then she slowly asked, "Can you be more specific? Who from the Bandel Family?"

"It's Bandero." Chu Yu replied.

Little Demon Fox Emperor was shocked again. "It really is him... Could it be that the slot was meant for us?"

"What do you mean, Sister Jiu? Can you explain it more clearly?" This completely baffled Mu Cheng.

Little Demon: "Sister Jiu... are you saying that the person helping us from behind is him, but why doesn't he meet us?"

"This matter goes back to when I saved his life. As for why he doesn't meet us, of course, it's my reason." Little Demon Fox Emperor still roughly recounted her past.

It was originally just a simple favor, but who knew... this Bandero wouldn't give up, so she had to say some harsh words in the end.

Mu Cheng heard this and mocked, "Hey! Is it really nothing? You're not lying to us, are you?"

"Yeah, Sister Jiu... why don't you honestly explain!" Little Demon also became very curious.

Little Demon Fox Emperor: "What's in your heads? I've only met him less than five times... it's just a one-sided crush."

Forget about having a good impression... she almost didn't even remember his name.

"Alright! By the way... Sister Jiu, do you have an impossible love in your heart? Otherwise, why wouldn't you give him any chance at all?" Mu Cheng continued to tease.

Little Demon Fox Emperor: "Before Qingqiu, I have no other choice."

"Alright, alright, let's talk about serious business first." Little Demon immediately interrupted upon hearing this.

She was still very clear about the current situation. Saving Qingqiu was not difficult, although it was only one step away from breaking through to God of Destruction.

But for Little Demon Fox Emperor, it was as hard as ascending to heaven...

Mu Cheng thought for a moment and said, "Are we going to take back control directly?"

"Take it back! These three old fellows don't want to let go, so today we'll grant their wish." Little Demon Fox Emperor finally made up her mind.

The rule was originally that managers could not be over ninety years old, but now these three guys didn't want to give up...

Forced to, she had to ask Mu Cheng for help. He operated the high-tech bracelet on his right wrist.

Soon, he revoked their authority and promoted Chu Yu's permission to the highest level.

"This... is too sudden!" Chu Yu saw the information and couldn't believe it for a moment.

She immediately ran out. "Oh no, excuse me..."

"Wait, let's go together!" Little Demon Fox Emperor instantly understood and suggested they go together.

Mu Cheng: "What happened?"

"Master, sometimes Little Demon really wants to hit you with a stick to wake you up." Little Demon also expressed her helplessness and explained.

"It should be Sister's... family!"

"Why didn't you say so earlier? We could have just canceled it after preparing." Mu Cheng instantly understood.

But what was done was done... it was too late to regret.

"Hurry up and lead the way!" Little Demon Fox Emperor said again.

Chu Yu thought for a moment... and finally made a decision, quickly leading the three towards her home.

On the other side.

"Big Brother, Second Brother... what's going on? Why have all our permissions been revoked?"

"Hurry! Let's go to the Chu Family to see."

Second Elder's home office.

"Damn it, it seems necessary to inform that lord." He was furious.

"Someone, quickly, someone!"

Soon, a middle-aged man rushed in. "Second Elder, what are your orders?"

"Go tell that lord that an accident has occurred, and also take the lord directly to the Chu Family!"

After giving instructions, he also left in a hurry...

On the other side, Chu Yu, like a madwoman, quickly returned home.

"Let's observe the situation from outside!" Little Demon Fox Emperor didn't follow them in, finding a spot to watch.

Mu Cheng and Little Demon did the same.

"It seems Old Man Chu is seriously injured, no wonder Worlds Number One Tower was controlled by those three old men." Little Demon instantly understood as she watched.

Little Demon Fox Emperor: "It's just an injury, isn't it simple to cure? Just let him devour it."

"That works too? By the way, can he still get injured? I haven't seen anyone get injured in a long time?" Mu Cheng looked bewildered.

Little Demon: "This injury isn't an internal or external wound, but a residual energy within his body."

"Alright! Let's observe the situation first before making plans." Mu Cheng then understood.

Indeed, after a short while, the Third Elder and Second Elder also arrived...

"I say, Brother Chu, how can you go back on what you promised?" The Third Elder asked with a smile as he approached.

The Second Elder also arrived at this moment and directly threatened, "You'd better explain what happened today!"

"Yu'er, what exactly is going on?" Old Man Chu calmly looked at Chu Yu and asked.

Completely ignoring the presence of the three of them...

Chu Yu: "The true Tower Lord, he has returned."

"Hahaha, are you a joker invited by monkeys? Who would believe that?" The Second Elder laughed.

The true Tower Lord? Where is there any Tower Lord of Worlds Number One Tower? It's just that your Chu Family was lucky.

It has been passed down, and now the permissions are gone... what else could it be but your Chu Family playing clever tricks?

"The true Tower Lord? Could it be the Devouring Bloodline possessor? It seems it really is him." Although Old Man Chu didn't believe it.

But the fact that the other party came to their door indicated... that the permission had indeed been revoked, otherwise, who would be so bored as to seek death?

He quickly made a decision, unleashing astonishing Ice Attribute Bloodline Power.

"The three of you, attack together! Even if I die, I'll make sure you lose a layer of skin."

"Should we make a move? Worlds Number One Tower... still needs him to control it from behind." Mu Cheng asked.

Little Demon, however, was calm. "No rush, let's observe first."

"Mhm, this old man giving up Worlds Number One Tower, there must be something not so simple behind it." Little Demon Fox Emperor also agreed.

She also had to say, "No need to worry, although he's injured, he's still infinitely close to God of Destruction, so he won't die that easily."

"Alright! I'll listen to you all." Seeing that he couldn't win, Mu Cheng chose to compromise.

On the other side, Chu Yu almost couldn't breathe in front of such a high-level battle.

Fortunately, Old Man Chu knocked her unconscious and threw out a Talisman Array to protect her.

"Come on! Do you want to come together or one by one?" Old Man Chu was very firm, showing that he had endured for a long time.

"You think you're worthy of us three brothers making a move? Let me teach you how to behave today!" The Third Elder attacked.

And he merely wiggled his finger, and Old Man Chu instantly spat out blood, falling to the ground on the verge of death.

"So it was you."

"What if it was me? Is your Chu Family flawless?" The Third Elder instantly went mad.

Second Elder: "Big Brother... will Third Brother be alright?"
