Legend of the Heavenly Fruit
Eps. 210 — State of the World
Zhou Yuan indeed did not hesitate to give what he had to the Night Shadow Organization, he could see the potential of their group especially its nine leaders.
Xu Miao, Huang Li, Qiyao, and the others were still young but had reached the peak warriors of the Crystal Realm, respectively, in the martial world it is very rare to find unless they are indeed geniuses and have high talent.
Zhou Yuan hoped that they would become a great organization in the future and help him to fight against the criminal organizations in the martial world.
Xu Miao to the point of shedding tears as she was moved by Zhou Yuan's gift, with the amount of the gift she already had the image of the Night Shadow Organization would be as strong as it was going to be.
Xu Miao said that he had a desire to create an association as a business of the Night Shadow Organization with gold coins given by Zhou Yuan.
This can help the organization's finances to be stable.
For the next two days, Zhou Yuan remained at the headquarters of the organization, he wanted to get to know the organization more closely as well as understand the workings of their group moving.
One fact that Zhou Yuan had only learned about them, the Night Shadow Organization had apparently never recruited anyone to join his organization.
The number of members that Xu Miao now gathered were people that the Night Shadow Organization had helped before, so some of them voluntarily entered the Night Shadow organization out of their own will.
Organizations like this were usually rare or perhaps even never existed, Zhou Yuan could see how their members were so respectful towards Xu Miao and the other 8 Elders with sincere respect.
This is very good for the Night Shadow Organization because with ties like this will minimize the betrayal.
During the two days there Zhou Yuan could also watch the daily life of the Night Shadow organization every day, some of them were practicing, cleaning the headquarters, or just hunting around the forest.
On the third day, Xu Miao finally announced Zhou Yuan as part of the Night Shadow Organization as well as the first male to join the organization.
The response of the members of the organization split in two, some were unhappy with Xu Miao's decision while others supported her.
However, those who did not support Zhou Yuan's incorporation soon turned their heads when they learned that Zhou Yuan had contributed a lot of funds to them, heirlooms, and resources.
In a short period of time, all the members of the Night Shadow Organization accepted Zhou Yuan as part of them even more they realized Zhou Yuan was a high-level swordsman stronger than Xu Miao.
Zhou Yuan smiled awkwardly, as he was the only man in this headquarters making his existence very striking let alone some of them starting to have an interest in him.
Aside from having them admire Zhou Yuan for his high strength, they were also stunned by Zhou Yuan's good looks.
Zhou Yuan could only scratch his head as the girls tried to approach him as the opposite sex, the problem was that Zhou Yuan already had a lover.
"It seems you are very quickly popular in this headquarters, Brother Yuan?"
Xu Miao chuckled at Zhou Yuan being mobbed by girls, if Xu Miao had not come perhaps the girls would not have left Zhou Yuan.
Zhou Yuan smiled awkwardly, not replying to Xu Miao's words, instead the girl then gave Zhou Yuan a green jade ring.
"I didn't know there was a jade ring like this in the martial world?" Zhou Yuan clucked in amazement at the beauty of the ring.
"The material to make the ring was indeed rare and difficult to obtain because it was made from ocean jade, we could also say we accidentally found the jade in the forest, at that time we-..." Not yet Xu Miao finished her conversation suddenly there was a black crow descending and perched on the shoulder of the girl.
At the crow's feet was a small roll of paper tied together, Xu Miao then removed the scroll before reading the contents of the paper.
"It's..."
Xu Miao was surprised to read the paper scroll, her expression slightly tangled yet she kept reading until the end. Xu Miao let out a long sigh after reading through all the contents.
"Do you use crows as mail senders?" Zhou Yuan realized Xu Miao was reading a letter that the crow had brought.
Zhou Yuan frowned slightly because generally the mail delivery animal was a pigeon, only this first time there were crows who could do the same job.
Xu Miao nodded then explained the reason why her organization did not use pigeons, because mainly because sending a letter wearing pigeons was too conspicuous to be used by the hidden organization of the Night Shadow Organization.
With the help of Huang Li who can talk to animals, the Night Shadow organization can be friendly with the crows and they help in sending the organization letters.
"Is there a problem?" Zhou Yuan noticed Xu Miao's expression that had many thoughts after reading the letter.
Xu Miao sighed long enough before trying to forcefully smile. "Brother Yuan, didn't I say that we were looking for a mastermind who was slandering our organization?"
Zhou Yuan nodded, Xu Miao had already said that while in the mining before.
"In this letter we find the perpetrators who ruled the robber, they turned out to be from a large organization."
Xu Miao said that the Night Shadow Organization had excellent information gathering capabilities. They're tucking spies into criminal organizations.
"Do you know the organization?" Ask Zhou Yuan.
"Yes, they are from the Skull Mountain organization."
The Skull Mountain Organization was one of the famous criminal organizations in the Star Empire, their strength was quite respected even the Night Shadow Organization was simply no match for it.
"More in the next few days there is the leader of the Eternal Snow Organization who came there and invited the Skull Mountain to make an alliance with the Sky Cloud Temple Organization..."
Zhou Yuan frowned, "Eternal Snow? Why are they here, should the organization be in the Moon empire, right?"
"Brother Yuan, have you heard no information about the organization of criminals over the past two years, their power has grown rapidly and threatens the lives of many people. The Sky Cloud Temple organization attempted to make the greatest alliance by merging all the organizations in the four empires to rule the martial world..." Xu Miao explained at length.
Zhou Yuan was speechless, he understood the ambitions of the Sky Cloud Temple Organization who wanted to rule the martial world but did not expect them to have developed this fast.
