Chapter 1419: Everyone Takes Responsibility

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

A middle-aged woman walked over to the young man and said respectfully, “Young Master Zhuang Bei, it’s likely that the Deep Freeze Chamber of Commerce has run into a big problem. How many people do you think we should take with us?”

The young man looked at the middle-aged woman and said, “You’re the Vice President of the Profit Source Chamber of Commerce, so you can decide the organization of manpower. No matter what reason the Deep Freeze Chamber of Commerce gives, our experts don’t have to interfere in this matter. If something has truly happened at the Deep Freeze Chamber of Commerce, I can ask the elders in my family to take the contract to the Lu family for a negotiation.”

The middle-aged thought,?Young Master Zhuang Bei had argued with Young Master Lu Kun when they were signing the contract. It seems like Young Master Zhuang Bei isn’t over it. If something has really happened to the Deep Freeze Chamber of Commerce and they give some reason for not being able to go through with the collaboration, Young Master Zhuang Bei is going to ask his family to go to the Lu family and demand compensation.

Song Dingzhen loved wealth, but she was not the type to go searching for trouble.

Who knew what trouble Deep Freeze Chamber of Commerce could have run into to lead their tree castle to be set on fire.

Besides the Class 4 Creation Master family, the Profit Source Chamber of Commerce, and the Prosperous Chamber of Commerce, many members of the three Class 3 Creation Master families, 17 Class 2 Creation Master families, and almost 300 Class 1 Creation Master families headed toward the Deep Freeze Chamber of Commerce’s tree castle.

The Deep Freeze Chamber of Commerce’s tree castle had essentially turned into the eye of a storm.

When everyone inside the tree castle fled, Song Dingzhen wanted to tell the guards to use iron vines to secure the tree castle. However, the fire was too serious and the carbonized tree castle soon crumbled into a pile of ash.

The plume of dust and ashes obscured the sight of the people around.

Faced with the wreck, Song Dingzhen shrieked with rage, “Who set fire to the Deep Freeze Chamber of Commerce’s tree castle? Show yourself!”

A murderous aura shot out from Song Dingzhen’s eyes.

The Lu family had placed Song Dingzhen as the Vice President of the Deep Freeze Chamber of Commerce’s Oak City branch. She was going to be berated now that the Deep Freeze Chamber of Commerce had been burnt to the ground.

If Lu Kun had been in the tree castle, he could have shared the responsibility with her.

But since he was not, she could not push the blame onto him and would have to shoulder it all on her own.

However, she could not bring herself to accept all the blame.

The three elderly men next to her released their feys. One of them was a large red-haired wolf that let out an ear-piercing howl. The second was a banana-shaped plant that pierced the street. Its leaves started flapping until numerous vortexes were formed. The third was a ladybug with seven stars imprinted on its body. Its flapping wings let out a roaring buzz. The yellow substance flowing out from its posterior left several people coughing.

All three feys were Diamond/Fantasy.

The pressure of the Diamond/Fantasy feys pressed down on every person in the area, and many of the onlookers felt as though they were being suffocated by a large rock weighing down on their chest.

A few of the timid regular people fainted out of fright.

But no matter how much Song Dingzhen shouted, she received no reply.

Suddenly, Bean started to wail in Zhao Jiazhi’s arms, and the sound attracted Song Dingzhen’s attention.

At that moment, the expression of a middle-aged man dressed in a black uniform changed, and he ran over to Song Dingzhen. He pointed at the Sincere Merchant Group members and mumbled something into Song Dingzhen’s ear.

Soon, Song Dingzhen’s expression changed as well.

She looked at the manager and wondered why he had not sent anyone to attack the Sincere Merchant Group members.

At that moment, the manager was searching for the king-class expert he had dispatched in the crowd. However, he realized that the king-class expert was nowhere to be found. The Sincere Merchant Group members had all run out of the tree castle, but the king-class expert he had sent after them was gone.

This caused all the hair on the manager’s hair to stand on end. He was about to tell Song Dingzhen about this situation when a gruff voice said, “What’s going on with the Deep Freeze Chamber of Commerce? Why did the building suddenly burn up?”

Song Dingzhen turned her head. When she saw the source of the voice, she immediately rushed up to greet him and said, “Lords Ding, I offer you my greetings. I am investigating the reason behind the fire but have not found anything yet.”

Song Dingzhen was utterly repulsed. If she knew the reason behind the fire, she would have stopped it before it took place. Why would she have allowed the Deep Freeze Chamber of Commerce to burn to the ground?

However, Oak City was in the palm of the Ding family’s hand as they were the only Class 4 Creation Master family in Oak City.

Not even Lu Kun dared to act up in front of the Ding family.

If the Ding family was angered, they would block the Deep Freeze Chamber of Commerce from opening a branch in Oak City. It would do no good even if the Lu family begged them.

At first, Song Dingzhen wanted to sniff out the arsonists and punish them severely. However, no one stepped up to admit to the act.

By this time, the team from the Profit Source Chamber of Commerce had arrived.

The young man dressed in green did not speak, but the middle-aged woman knew what his thoughts were and asked Song Dingzhen, “Vice President, the Deep Freeze Chamber of Commerce has just signed a contract with us. Yet, you’ve already tried a trick like this.”

Song Dingzhen hurriedly replied, “We will find the reason behind the fire and rebuild the tree castle immediately. The collaboration with the Profit Source Chamber of Commerce won’t be affected.”

The young man dressed in green snarled, “You make it sound so simple, but the entire building has been burnt to the ground. How can the Deep Freeze Chamber of Commerce continue to maintain its hold on Oak City? I want to request for the Profit Source Chamber of Commerce to take the lead in our collaboration while the Deep Freeze Chamber of Commerce cooperates with us.”

Song Dingzhen’s frown deepened, and she thought,?If only Lu Kun was here. He’s the only one who can stand toe to toe with Zhuang Bei.

Zhuang Bei was from a secret elite family, and Song Dingzhen lacked the authority to speak up against him because she was not a member of the Lu family.

Song Dingzhen looked at the customers and members of merchant groups that had just fled out of the tree castle and yelled, “Since no one will admit to it, all of you shall bear the responsibility of burning the Deep Freeze Chamber of Commerce’s tree castle.”
