Chapter 511: Chairman Zhao’s Resignation

“What is it?” Yuan asked the old man.

“I am surnamed Wu, and I would like to confirm something… Are you really a Spirit Master?” The old man asked him.

“What do you think?”

The old man showed a slight smile on his face before releasing his cultivation base, and to Yuan’s surprise, he was also a Spirit Master!

‘There are already other Spirit Masters beside me in this world?’ Yuan thought to himself.

“Although I cannot see your face, I can tell that you’re surprised by my cultivation base. You must be wondering how this is possible. If you visit my family at Mount Wu, I will tell you everything.”

And before Yuan could even respond, the old man continued, “Don’t worry, I am not related to Chairman Zhao, so whatever happened between you and him has nothing to do with me or my family. I came here today to see if the Cultivators’ Association was worth my family’s backing, but from the looks of it, we will have to reconsider some things.”

“Hey, Old Wu, let’s not try to pull a fast one before everyone here, or have you forgotten about our presence?” Another old man suddenly stepped forward and bowed to Yuan with his hands clasped.

“My surname is Zhi, and I am also a Spirit Master.” The old man surnamed Zhi then released his Spirit Master cultivation base, surprising Yuan even more.

“Forget about Mount Wu. Come to my Mount Zhi instead. You won’t regret it.”

Then another person stepped forward— an old woman.

“Instead of fighting amongst ourselves, why don’t we all cooperate together?” The old woman suggested.

She approached Yuan and said, “Surnamed Wang from the Wang Family. If you want to know how we reached Spirit Master and more about cultivation in general, come to the Jaded Garden situated outside the Yang City. We’ll be more than happy to befriend a young genius such as yourself. If you’re worried about your identity being revealed, I will let you know that we’re really good at keeping secrets.”

The old woman then leaned over his shoulders and whispered in a low voice that could only be heard by Yuan, “After all, we have managed to keep cultivation a secret from the rest of the world for many centuries…”

Yuan’s body trembled after hearing the old woman’s words.

They kept cultivation a secret from the rest of the world for many centuries? Does this mean that they have known about cultivation even way before Cultivation Online existed? If so, that explains why they were Spirit Masters.

“See you there in a month…” The old woman said to him before turning around and walking back to Chairman Zhao.

“Chairman Zhao, you have a lot of explaining to do for us. And don’t you even dare think about lying to us because we will investigate the truth ourselves afterward.”

Chairman Zhao, who was supposed to be an almighty figure, nodded his head in a powerless manner before the old woman and the other elders that were clearly more influential than Chairman Zhao.

Yuan lingered in the place for a few more moments before finally leaving the Cultivator’s Association with Meifeng.

Although the people there wanted to follow him, they didn’t dare to do so and reluctantly stayed behind.

“Young Master… you nearly scared me to death just now! I’m shocked that we even got to leave that place in one piece!” Meifeng sighed sometime later.

“I’m sorry. I got a little angry and my body started moving on its own.” Yuan said to her, his hands still trembling a little.

“Young Master… Are you really Player Yuan?” Meifeng suddenly asked him.

“I will tell you everything once we return home, okay?”

“Of course.” Meifeng nodded.

Once Yuan and Meifeng left the scene, the elders pressed Chairman Zhao for answers before everyone in the Cultivators’ Association.

“If you don’t tell us what happened, we’ll speak with the council and have them deal with you.”

Chairman Zhao sighed out loud before telling them the truth in a regretful voice.

“Che! What a shameless old man!” Someone there said out loud after Chairman Zhao revealed everything.

“Chairman Zhao, I am greatly disappointed in you. My Wang Family no longer wishes to be affiliated with the Cultivators’ Association. Excuse me.”

The old woman turned around and left the scene, followed by a few youngsters that came to this place with her.

The other elders also told Chairman Zhao the same thing before leaving the place.

As for the other people in the Cultivators’ Association, they immediately started spreading news of everything that transpired there today through their phones, which spread like wildfire, shocking the world.

“What? The real Player Yuan showed up at the Cultivators’ Association to warn Chairman Zhao? What did Chairman Zhao do to offend Player Yuan?”

“Chairman Zhao tried to force a young lady into joining the Cultivators’ Association? And this young lady turned out to have a relationship with Player Yuan? Talk about karma!”

“Hahaha! Serves that old pervert right! I can’t believe it! This is Player Yuan’s first real appearance outside of Cultivation Online!”

“Player Yuan is already a Spirit Master? Isn’t he also a Spirit Master in Cultivation Online? Just who is Player Yuan?! How does he keep achieving these seemingly impossible achievements?!”

The world was greatly shocked by what had happened at the Cultivators’ Association, but the people were more interested in Player Yuan than what Chairman Zhao had done.

As for the Yu Family, they had managed to dodge a bullet when Chairman Zhao revealed everything, as he wasn’t aware that the Yu Family had hired mercenaries to kidnap Meixiu.

However, the Yu Family was also shocked speechless to know that Meixiu had a relationship with Player Yuan, someone they have been looking for themselves.

They wanted to approach Meixiu for more information, but they were afraid of Player Yuan knocking on their doors.

After all, if Player Yuan dared to threaten to destroy the Cultivators’ Association before the Chairman of the Cultivators’ Association at their main headquarters, what would stop him from visiting the Yu Family?

The Yu Family then called Mister Johnson to cancel the pending job.

What happened at the Cultivators’ Association would be a hot topic on the news and the internet for the rest of the week, and Chairman Zhao would resign his position as Chairman the following day, which didn’t surprise anyone when they learned about it.
