Qiao Tian Chang nodded: “Okay, good. Continue to do what Yao Yao had told you guys to do before. Capture Nangong Yan back when you find him, and remember, I want him back alive.”

He still had some things to ask Nangong Yan, so he could not let him die just yet, it would be pointless if he was dead.

“Master, don’t worry. Miss had already informed us before. There’s another thing. The people at Yulin Mountain Villa will also be coming soon.” Their people were withdrawing, and the industry was rapidly decreasing. All empires were experiencing varying degrees of suppression.

Qiao Tian Chang listened and he felt much relieved: “Since that’s the case, then I’m rest assured, but it is better to be careful.”

“Master, don’t worry. Only trustworthy people can enter. Everyone else will be checked.” They had started dealing with these when they went to Miaojiang.

They had already found several rats through this investigation, some even tried to bluff their way through, but they had all been caught in the end.

Qiao Tian Chang looked at Qing Shuang silently, he felt some helplessness. Ning Meng Yao had already thought of all these things that he just thought.

But it was no surprise to have spies within forces no matter how strict one managed.

However, Ning Meng Yao was the sort who was always on point with her decisions.

“If that’s the case then I’m relieved.” Qiao Tian Chang thought for a while. It seemed that there was nothing that really needed to be managed now, so he let Qing Shuang and the rest leave.

After they left, Qiao Tian Chang noticed the books on the shelves in the Study Room. Many of these books were single volume, and some were unheard of.

He took out a book and read it carefully. He was gradually attracted by the content of the book.

Ning Meng Yao came down with her two children, then she realized that she did not know where Qiao Tian Chang was. She asked around and finally found out that he was in the Study Room after asking Qing Shuang.

She pushed the door and peeped inside strangely. She saw Qiao Tian Chang holding a book and reading it carefully. Ning Meng Yao shook her head and smiled at the sight of this.

“Qing Shuang, tell Sister Mei and the rest to come back.” Everything would be back to normal once Mei Ruo Lin and the rest returned.

“Yes.”

Ning Meng Yao caressed her stomach, although she was in a bad state, she would not allow anyone to hurt her child.

After receiving the news from Ning Meng Yao, Yu Feng arranged all the preparations and secretly transported them away. Then he brought his wife and child to the headquarters of Tong Bao Zhai. Along the way, they also got rid of several spies.

When the owner of Yulin Mountain Villa fled the place with his wife and child who had just been born not long ago, the news attracted an uproar among the people nearby, especially Xiao Qi Feng.

“Where did they go?” He had searched almost the entire continent but he still could not find them.

Before this, he was thinking that he could use the people at Yulin Mountain Villa to find Ning Meng Yao, but even they had gone missing too. This was quite a blow for Xiao Qi Feng.

However, this was not the most difficult thing for him. The most difficult thing for him was that after Yu Feng and the rest had disappeared, almost all the stores in this continent that belonged to Tong Bao Zhai closed at the same time. Not only were they closed, the stores were as if they had never been opened before.

This was the terrible effect that befell when the whole Tong Bao Zhai took action.

“Darned it, what the heck are they trying to do.” Xiao Qi Feng’s face became gloomy and terrifying as he listened to his Finance Minister’s report.

Half of Xiao Empire’s economy was in standstill in just two days, and the other half was still supported by Xiao Qi Tian’s industries. However, Xiao Qi Feng knew that it was just a matter of time.

Xiao Qi Tian’s industries would not be able to sustain the economy as time went on.

“What should we do now, Your Highness?” The Finance Minister said anxiously. If this continued, the Xiao Empire would be destroyed from the inside. Other empires were just about the same as well.

Xiao Qi Tian stood on the side and looked at the two people. Bitterness flashed in his eyes. They had really underestimated Ning Meng Yao if they thought that she would put the world as her top priority.
