A/n: In the last few chapters, I have once again started to use Madam Xin instead of Madam Fang for Fang Yuan's wife. This was to avoid confusing her with Madam Fang Bai, who is Fang Yuan's sister and Fang Chen's mother. Now back to your favorite story:
...
"A way to recover the loss?" Pri Minister Fang frowned, "Son, do you know how much loss we have made?"
"I don't." Ye Tian Yun shook his head, "But I can assure you that I have a way to recover the losses."
"Oh?" Pri Minister Fang scratched his chin, "Well, let hear it then. As for the help you need, I will help you with my full capacity, even if your plan to receive the losses isn't feasible."
Ye Tian Yun nodded, "That's good to know. But before that, I want you to put a soundproof array in the room, lest soone overhears my words."
"Hm, I will." Pri Minister Fang stood up and went to the cupboard at the side of the room and turned on the soundproofing array.
"It's on now. You can speak freely." He said.
Ye Tian Yun smiled, "Well, the solution is pretty simple: I know the location of a Spirit Vien."
"A Spirit Vein?" Pri Minister Fang frowned, "No, that won't be enough. Our clan has plenty of low-grade Spirit Viens, but even they are not enough. Your vein will be like a drop in the ocean."
Ye Tian Yun smiled, "What if… it's a High Tier Vein?"
"A high-Tier…." Pri Minister Fang frowned, "Do you know what you are saying?"
"I know very well." Ye Tian Yun smiled.
"A high-tier vein can create all-out war among the sects and clans across the Lower Heavens." Pri Minister Fang said, "And you're saying you know of such a thing? Don't give false hope…."
"It's not a prank," Ye Tian Yun shook his head before adding, "I know the location of the High Tier Spirit Vien. Prepare your most loyal guards and send them with to the destination."
"Hm…" Pri Minister Fang frowned, "What about your marriage?"
"Marriage?" Ye Tian Yun smiled, "Is that even important now?"
"It is." Pri Minister Fang nodded, "It's a matter of even more significance now."
"Hm," Ye Tian Yun frowned, "Well, you will have to choose. Either do the marriage or get the High-Tier Spirit Vein."
"This…" Pri Minister Fang pursed his lips, "Putting everything in order will take a week. Will you be able to return within two weeks?"
"Highly unlikely." Ye Tian Yun replied, "The problem is to find the High Tier, Spirit Vein. I only know the rough location, and I won't co here soon since staying near the vein will help a lot for my cultivation."
"Hmm…" Pri Minister Fang nodded, "Alright, give a week. I will discuss with you when I have understood the whole situation. Now, tell what your request is?"
Ye Tian Yun pursed his lips, "I need your connections to help save soone."
"Hm?" Pri Minister Fang frowned, "What happened? Is everything alright?"
"It's nothing to worry about," Ye ITan Yun replied, "But the main problem is, the person I need to save is in the Wu Kingdom."
"In the Wu Kingdom!?" Pri Minister Fang was taken aback, "How co you know soone from that kingdom?"
"It was just a fateful eting. Anyway, this person is very talented, that is why I need him. In the future, he will either beco my friend, or he will beco my worst enemy." Ye Tian Yun said, "I want to try him getting back on my side. If that doesn't work, I will have to nip the bud before it blooms."
"Hm, alright," Pri Minister Fang nodded, "I will help you arrange people for you."
"Hmm, I just need enough to get into the Wu Kingdom. I will handle the rest." Ye ITan Yun said.
"What? Absolutely not!" Pri Minister Fang shook his head, "I will not allow you to go to the Wu Kingdom. If your identity gets leaked, you won't be able to co back alive."
"Oh, don't worry about that; I will have my arrangents."
"No, I am not discussing this with you. I am stating a fact." Pri Minister Fang crossed his arms while saying, "How about I send so guards to save him? I have a few people in the Wu Kingdom who owe so favors. They will gladly help you."
"That won't do," Ye Tian Yun shook his head, "I need to save him and his clan personally so that I can make a direct connection with him."
"But.."
"This is my request." Ye Tian Yun spoke, "And in return, you're getting a High-Tier Spirit Vein!"
"Fang Chen…" Pri Minister Fang frowned, "If I'm getting the High Spirit Vein at the cost of risking your life, I don't need it."
"No," Ye ITan Yun shook his head, "I must go to the Wu Kingdom. It's important for ."
"Oh?" Pri Minister Fang frowned, "Do you insist on this?"
"I insist very much."
"Hn… then how about you listen to my one request?"
"Hmm… what is it?"
"Well, promise that you will marry the Third Princess of Gao Clan."
"... I can't promise that." Ye Tian Yun shook his head, "There is no need to intercross my and that young lady's life. The outco won't be good since I feel nothing towards her. To , the young lady is just a stranger."
"She will be your wife in three weeks." Pri minister Fang said, "And you can't avoid this. If you fail with this, you won't be able to get into the Wu Kingdom."
Ye Tian Yun frowned, "Is that… a threat?"
"No, it's a fact." Pri Minister Fang said, "Because you will need the Gao Clan's help to cross the border, in these tis, only they can help you secretly cross the border. In these tis, all trade routes between the two countries are blocked; this is why you must have a good relationship with the Gao Clan."
Ye Tian Yun frowned, "I will see."
'Why can't this marriage be avoided?'
He couldn't help but inwardly sigh at this.
"Good." Pri Minister Fang smiled, "Now go and focus on your cultivation. You will be long married by the ti the Grand Spirit Hunt arrives; you will have to represent the Fang Clan in the event alongside your cousin Fang Yunru."
Ye Tian Yun nodded, "I also have the Royal Bloodline Trial to attend."
"Aish, yes, that too." Pri Minister Fang frowned.
Clearly not liking the idea of Ye Tian Yun being part of the cultivators vying to beco King Xin's son-in-law.
"You know my aim is only the trial, not the princess or her clan." As if reading Pri Minister Fang's thoughts, Ye Tian Yun replied.
"We will see." Pri Minister Fang sighed.
"Alright." Ye Tian Yun stood up from his seat, "I will get going now."
"Hmm, take care."
Ye Tian Yun nodded and left the study hall.
Staring at the closed door, Pri Minister Fang Yuan let out a sigh.
'I need to et with Gao Kang today.'
