The Miracle Throne
Facing the Danger

Meng Ying Ying's delicate cheeks turned bright red, barely able to dispel the excitement. If they were not in public, he would start shouting and jumping around!

Just incredible!

Very awesome!

Jiejie is too wise and careful!

How can you lower your stance against your sworn enemy!

Chu Tian did not disappoint me. It really vented my anger!

Meng Qing Wu was not simple-minded and easily swayed by debt of gratitude or revenge like her sister. His dark brows fused together; he was still worried.

Offending the Ye family right after the establishment of a new trade was not a wise choice. However, since it was already like this, then there was nothing he could do.

And for Chu Tian to want to participate in the Summit competition ...... does he not want to live anymore?!

Meng Qing Wu hurriedly voiced a reminder: The Tian Nan Summit happens once a year. It was originally a peak event for elite families such as those with big business, government, or military circles. At the Summit there was a very important competition called ‘Genius’ Competition, letting the geniuses of the younger generation compete in the arena. All sectors attach great importance to it, so it is not a trivial matter. Miss Nangong was the first place in the last big competition, so she should know more about this.

Nangong Yun nodded his head, adding: One is only allowed to participate in the Genius Competition once, the age of the participant should not be more than twenty years. The competition dictates the distribution of resources, something that all the big families will fight for. Also, the competition is in the public arena, so don't expect me to be able to help you. Ye Han didn't participate in the competition two years ago to avoid me, and he didn't enter the final competition because he went to Central State. This time he wants to win.

After Meng Ying Ying heard this.

How is he going to stay okay?

Ye Han did not participate for two consecutive years, as well as studying at Central State for a year. Now that he was almost twenty years old and nearing the limit to participate in the competition, his strength must have been extremely strong!

Moreover, other families could also bring out many experts!

Jiejie even took me to watch a few times, and every year the matches were terrible. There are always people dying and getting hurt. Chu Tian's cultivation was not high, wasn't it dangerous for him !?

Meng Ying Ying poked Chu Tian: “Oi, don't get involved in this mess!”

Nangong Yun followed up: Right! This is basically self-abuse!

Chu Tian was feeling sad!

You guys really lack confidence in me?

How do you know I'll be harassed?

Alrighty! I Chu Tian had lived two lives, yet had never been looked down upon like this before. At first I was just kidding but now I have to leave for sure!

The three women looked at each other helplessly. Clearly Chu Tian had already decided, so they could only sigh.

Forget it, let him go and have some fun. With Chu Tian's current strength, he would probably be eliminated in the preliminary round. There was no need to worry that he would be compared to Ye Han.

Maybe because of the pressure.

These two days, Chu Tian began to eat a lot of plant and beast meat. At the same time he also started high-intensity training. His magic power was gradually approaching the peak of 3rd rank Body Refinement. As long as he had the right chance, he could break through to a 4th rank Body Refinement.

A rank 4 Body Refinement was enough for him to fight against Ye Han. If he increased his cultivation a little more, even if he only reached the peak of Body Refinement rank 4, then he would have the confidence to defeat Ye Han.

The amount of time he had was enough.

In addition, the application for the establishment of Miracle Commerce has been approved. His full name is Miracle Magic Power Array and Technology Corporation!

Today, trading is just an outline, without any product or service. It was very low-profile and not many people realized it.

Right now, no one can imagine.

In the future, the trade made in a small town within this small country with limited resources would shake and change the entire continent.

Meng Qing Wu started to report the working situation from the last two days: “I bought two small factories that make glass and started to make preparations to produce light bulbs.” As he spoke, he took out two small glass balls, “This is the sample, look at.”

The glass box is pear shaped. Inside were several thin metal plates shaped like flower buds. The metal plate was called the Fire Copper Plate and was used to store the array inscriptions. The girls gave it to each other to check and all of them were very satisfied. It was much better than the one in Chu Tian's room.

Chu Tian glanced at him.

Overall, it was a bit rough.

But with the technology and manufacturing capabilities available today, it is impossible to create complex designs. This has to be done for now.

Meng Qing Wu continued: “I plan to buy one of the high-end restaurants in the center of Tian Nan City to start preparations for the magic power restaurant, but we have one problem …… we don't have enough people!”

The manufacture of light bulbs is done purely by hand. It was impossible for Chu Tian himself to do all that.

Chu Tian did not think this was anything big: Easy, just create a secret workshop, find some people you can trust and can write down the array. It would be fine if I just taught them.

Meng Qing Wu's eyes showed a little surprise: “You can easily deliver such technology?”

“Are you planning on asking me to do all the manufacturing?” Chu Tian exaggeratedly opened his mouth wide: It will only make me tired to death! How many beautiful girls will be heartbroken? How many pathetic commoners would be in trouble? How much loss is there for the world? Can you pay for all that?

Meng Ying Ying blushed and scolded: “Pei! * Narcissist!”

*TN: voice similar to English “bla”

Electric light bulbs are a revolutionary product!

Biological lights and crystals across the country are very expensive. On the other hand, candles and oil lamps are not user friendly. Other illumination technologies are neither universal nor very troublesome. All of these choices do not satisfy people.

Light bulbs are something cheap and practical. That would cause a stir. No need to mention the value it would generate, the trade would easily get its first bucket of gold!

Such technology with unlimited potential.

Chu Tian could share it without even batting an eye?

Does he trust himself so much? Meng Qing Wu was moved!

Actually, he thought too much about it. Chu Tian shared this technology without much thought as he had never considered it important. This is the first major product of the trade so the earlier it comes out, the better.

Southern Cloud Commerce has a new pharmaceutical factory.

At first, due to security and privacy considerations, factories had to be built in suburban areas. It was built very solidly and tightly controlled. The arrival and departure of goods and materials were all done through secret roads and channels. In this way, it is more difficult to uncover the secret stuff. This pharmaceutical factory just closed. It has now been converted into a secret base for the production of light bulbs.

Meng Qing Wu carefully selected a dozen workers she trusted while Nangong Yun filled the rest with twenty people from the Nangong guards. All of these people were not from the Middle States and they were loyal and devoted to the Nangong family. These people have no problem keeping the operation a secret.

Day two.

Chu Tian personally went to the factory to conduct an inspection.

Production based in rural areas. The outside was guarded by hired mercenaries while the inside had several dozen trusted personnel. This is a very safe place. Chu Tian gave the array blueprints to them, and just like that, the first production unit of Miracle Commerce was established.

Chu Tian did not stay after he resolved his problem. He rode a beast carriage with Meng Ying YIng to return to the city.

Meng Ying Ying sat on the jerking beast wagon. His facial expression was one of looking to the future: The day Miracle Commerce was officially established, it would create an uproar throughout Tian Nan City. It really makes people look forward to it!

Chu Tian was just about to speak.

Who knows that this time.

A strong sense of danger appeared!

This sharp feeling towards unknown danger had saved Chu Tian countless times. Chu Tian had complete confidence in this, so he moved like a conditioned reflex.

Meng Ying Ying was scared silly by Chu Tian. His face immediately turned red, his heartbeat speeding up. Chu Tian ..... He couldn't possibly think of doing that to me!

Peng-seng!

Three to four Bleak Frost arrows pierced through the carriage!

Meng Ying Ying suddenly realized the truth. His face paled, “Someone wants to kill us!”

Who'sis that?

There is not enough time to think.

Sou!

Another row of arrows shot inward!

The arrows were filled with powerful magic power and they easily pierced through the wood a few centimeters thick like it was made of paper. Chu Tian covered the mouth of Meng Ying Ying and used the direction of the arrow origin and density of the arrow to assess the location of the enemy.

From the east!

At least seven or eight people!

Chu Tian picked up Meng Ying Ying, violently charging towards the window of the carriage. The two people flew out of the carriage, landing hard on the ground.

When Meng Ying Ying looked back, the coachman riding the beast carriage had been squandered by countless arrows. He had met with a tragic death. The horse that pulled the carriage was startled and crashed the carriage into a large tree. The entire wagon had overturned and fallen to the ground.

About ten people wearing black clothes suddenly came out from the dense grass. The number of people was more than he had expected!

Chu Tian pulled Meng Ying Ying, yelling: “There is a forest in front, quickly hide in it!”

People dressed in black started to act; their speed was shocking. They were generally sixth rank Body Refinement. This kind of power would be classified as an expert in the entire Tian Nan City. The captain of the Southern Cloud Trade, Meng Shan, was no more than a rank 7 pinnacle!

That must be a group of trained assassins!

This place was at most two and a half kilometers away from Tian Nan City. Every day, there would be military units patrolling the area to fight magical beasts. The area also contained the various Tian Nan City trading materials factories, sawmills, mines, farms, and others.

Although this was a rural area, it was a safe area.

For the past few days, Chu Tian had been behind closed doors. He had not expected that once he travelled outside, he would face such a cruel ambush! Chu Tian had no choice but to flee into the forest with Meng Ying Ying.

It's very risky!

The safe district and the dangerous district outside Tian Nan City were outlined very clearly. Since magical beasts had an extremely strong sense of territory, breaking through randomly might be able to interfere with the territory of a savage beast. If by any chance a powerful magical beast was pulled out, then the consequences could not be imagined.

“The reaction is not slow.” A middle-aged man with a sinister and cruel expression coldly said: Pursue! I want him captured alive! I'll make him wish he were dead!

The black-clothed assassins dropped their bows, pulling the weapons from their waists. The assassins were like a dozen arrows as they chased.

Meng Ying Ying sensed the assassins approaching. He gritted his teeth, saying to Chu Tian: I will slow it down! You run fast!

You should stop teasing me, with your Rank 4 Body Refinement, any one of them could instantly finish you off!

Although Chu Tian's heart was somewhat moved, he smiled bitterly, saying: “Stop joking!”

“I don't!” Meng Ying Ying took out a pink, almost frosted, pill from her clothes. His little face revealed an expression of determination, “If I eat a pill, I should be able to stop it for a while!”

The Red Lotus Pill? Why do you have it!

“This pill has a special warning value for me, I always keep it on my side!”

Chu Tian was extremely excited, this was truly the heaven that gave him hope. She almost hugged and kissed Meng Ying Ying: “Erxiaojie, you are my savior, give it to me!”

Chu Tian grabbed the Crimson Lotus Pill and swallowed it. A burning hot feeling spread through his dantian, instantly flooding his meridians. There was a bit of stabbing pain. Under the powerful stimulus, the rate at which his body produced magic power became faster and faster, instantly making his magic power stronger by several times.

“It will take some time before Crimson Lotus pill will take effect!”

Chu Tian took Meng Ying Ying. He lightly kicked the floor, releasing waves of magic power, instantly pushing it dozens of meters away. His body was light like a swallow.

“Step Swallow Ghost!”

This technique is not a sophisticated technique but the most suitable in its current state. This technique greatly increased the speed of movement, and when coupled with Chu Tian's “ hyperfocus” ability, he was able to advance even in the forest at a fast speed.

The middle-aged man's sinister face showed a surprised expression: Did I see a ghost? Why is their speed so fast? Boost his speed, we will catch him by any means!

Meng Ying Ying could feel the effects of the Crimson Lotus Pill as she was held in Chu Tian's embrace. He felt the heat coming from Chu Tian's body, as if every vein and artery were burning. He can't not worry. The pill that forcibly increased this cultivation must have caused a lot of pain!

He could do nothing but hold Chu Tian even tighter, hoping to endure some of his pain.

The effects of the Crimson Lotus pill peaked after five minutes, allowing Chu Tian's strength to increase by several folds; pushing his cultivation from the peak of the 3rd rank to the 5th peak rank!

This is the limit of the pill!

Moreover, the effects of the Crimson Lotus Pill could not last long. Once the effect of the pill was gone, it would be replaced by a powerful side effect. It would make one feel extremely tired, almost to the point where they could not move.

No, this is not enough.

This kind of speed was not enough to unleash them!

Chu Tian showed a distinctly dignified color: “Erxiaojie, they tried to catch me, I have dragged you in this.”

Meng Ying Ying looked at the side of Chu Tian's face. His gaze did not reveal much fear, but rather a kind of obscurity. Lying in Chu Tian's arms, he could only feel his heartbeat quick and full of strength, causing him to feel a sense of security, as if in a dream.

Meng Ying Ying's face became stubborn: “I'm not afraid!”

Erxiaojie

“Do not call me erxiaojie again!”

“It sounds strangely far.” The clear and sparkling eyes of Meng Ying Ying revealed a complicated expression, “Call me Ying Ying, okay?”

“OK!”

Chu Tian's heart became warm.

No matter how much it costs!

At least he had to protect the safety of the girl in his arms!

Chu Tian's aura gradually became fierce: “Ying Ying, I will do it!”

Meng Ying Ying nodded her head: “Go, you don't need to worry about me.”

Chu Tian leaped high.

Phantom SwallowSwallow Steps Back to the Nest!

Chu Tian stepped on the huge tree. As if inertia had no effect on him, Chu Tian suddenly changed direction and returned to the way he came. The black-clothed assassin continued at full speed as they were about to chase after Chu Tian. They did not think that Chu Tian would suddenly counterattack.

“Ah!”

Screams sounded!

Chu Tian's kick swept through the air and hit one of the assassins with a rank 6 Body Refinement. The killer's bones and muscles were instantly shattered and he died on the spot. Everyone in black was shocked. They had never thought that Chu Tian's combat power was so terrifying!
