I Have Infinite Systems In The Immortal World

61  Piquing Attenion of Third Concubine Long Ming glanced at the waiter as he nodded. Although he had gotten all the relevant information from Meng Zhi, he decided to have some ground zero survey.

Lan Family's patriarch has been ruling for almost seventy years. Under his power, the Lan Family was able to dominate the Huo Family and Three Feather Group, the two other factions in the Black Pearl Society. And now, Lan Family is trying to gobble up Huo Family using marriage.

The Third daughter of the Huo Family, Huo Jiyan is betrothed to the young master of the Lan Family, Lan Hai. If this marriage happens, Huo Family and Lan Family will become official partners and raze down the Three Feather Group in no time.

" Other than the patriarch, The First Madame and the Third Madame also hold some power in the Lan Family. Especially the third madame, whom Patriarch Lan Xiao married five years ago."

" She is a beautiful woman with a dignified aura. She doesn't participate in politics much. However, She isn't someone you can take lightly." The waiter spoke.

" Not to mention, Even Patriarch takes her word seriously. Too bad, they haven't conceived a child."

Long Ming heard that as he pondered. He also had a report on An Lu'an, The third concubine of Lan Xiao. However, it didn't state much about her.

" So, Do you know anything exclusive about An Lu'an?"

The waiter looked around as his voice turned low. " Actually, I have heard that Madame An goes to Autumn Pool Pavilion once a week. And judging the time, she might be there today as well. You know, she is a lover of painting and calligraphy."

Suddenly, a wide grin crept on Long Ming's lips as he patted the back of the waiter. " Good, You are very skilled in your work. If I even need it, I will contact you again."

" It will be my pleasure, Sir."

Soon, the dishes were served before Long Ming and Ming Yuexin. Long Ming rubbed his palm as he started eating.

" So, You were here to gather intel, huh?" Ming Yuexin took the wine cup and started to drink while lightly opening her veil.

" But before that, Won't you be eating?" Long Ming was puzzled. Min Yuexin shook her head. " I always eat alone."

" Are you sure?"

" I am. I will eat when we go back."

Long Ming nodded. " Very well. After we return to Sea Breeze Inn, I will ask the waiter to bring food to your room. I can't let you work here with an empty stomach, no?"

Ming Yuexin's eyes narrowed as if she was about to smile. But in the end, she didn't. But, Long Ming got 100 AP from that.

" Anyway, The thing is, The Lan Family has grown so large that if the Three Feather Group and Huo Family joins hand, they couldn't do anything. Therefore, Hua Family took the chance and allied themselves with Lan Family." Long Ming spoke.

" It must be a hard time for Three Feather Group. They must be in despair right now." Ming Yuexin sighed. " I heard Three Feather Group is strongly connected with the Westward Pirates. Although they are merchants, they also deal with the pirates."

Ming Yuexin sighed as she gulped the wine in one go. Long Ming only got a brief moment to see her lips. When he saw it, he couldn't help but sigh.

' Man, I just want to suck them.'

" How I wish we can just take down the three forces and claim the Black Pearl City for our Four Seasons Valley. After all, This place is founded by our ancestors."

Long Ming shook his head, " Time will even corrode diamonds into dust. Without enough power, one can't handle prosperity. Anyway, Our primary mission is to get enough Deep Sea Iron for our sect."

" But I doubt they will agree," Ming Yuexin snorted lightly. " They are dealing with Blissful Heaven Temple and the Royal Family of Holy Qilin Empire for so long."

Long Ming sighed as he got up. " I will think of a way. For now, You should go and rest, Sister Ming. I will walk around the city and see if I can think of a way. We will go to the Lan Family Manor in the evening."

Ming Yuexin nodded as she got up. Soon, Long Ming dropped her in the  Sea Breeze Inn. He didn't forget to order the food and wine for Ming Yuexin.

After that, Long Ming walked out as he looked at the street. " Autumn Pool Pavilion, huh?"

Soon, Long Ming reached the building of the Autumn Pool Pavilion. It was a famous teahouse for its scenery and tea. Long Ming used his Heavenly Revelation eyes and saw there are very few people on the third floor.

' I hope she is there.'

Without delaying, Long Ming walked to the third floor. When he reached the entrance, he could see a beautiful woman sitting beside a large opening and enjoying the scenery.

" Halt! Who are you?"

" This place is reserved at this moment."

Two guards blocked Long Ming's way when he was about to walk into that floor. Long Ming looked at them and he could see both of them were in the Mid stage of True Core Formation Realm.

Long Ming calmed his heart as his paper fan opened. " Well, Is it really etiquette to stop an admirer of beauty to appreciate it? I wish to enjoy Rippling Sea Tea and paint the scenery."

The woman's attention was attracted as she looked at Long Ming's figure. Long Ming gave a natural smile to her as he gently waved his paper fan.

" Brat, It seems like you didn't hear. This place is reserved for now."

" Hmph, Who are you calling a beauty? Are you here to flirt with our mistress?"

The guard naturally felt annoyed at Long Ming. However, Something about his aura was keeping them from stopping attacking.

" Aiyo, I was naturally talking about the beautiful pool outside. But the lady inside is no less of a beauty than the pool." Long Ming chuckled as he turned around.

" Alas, You guys are talking like she isn't beautiful. I can't talk with you after hearing that. Talking about beauty with you is the same as playing pipa before boars."

"Boars!"

" You dare!"

" Halt!"

The woman finally spoke as the guards became stunned. The woman nodded, indicating to let Long Ming walk inside.

Long Ming gently fanned himself as he walked inside. He stood before the woman as he cupped his fist. " Thank you, Madame. Thanks to your generosity, I might be able to complete my work."

" Hmm."

The lady nodded as she returned her gaze to the scene outside. Long Ming's eyes narrowed, but he also didn't talk to her. He found a seat and ordered to bring two cups of Rippling Sea Tea.

' Fuck, One cup of tea is 30,000 Mid grade spirit stones? Why don't these guys rob a bank?' Long Ming gracefully accepted the two cups of tea while cursing in his heart.

Soon, he took out a paper and a jade brush and set it in front of him. After that, He took out an additional cup and filled it with Song of Summer and Winter wine.

The lady, who was enjoying the scenery along with her tea, felt intrigued as she finally looked at Long Ming. It wasn't like she wasn't observing him, but this subtle action truly surprised her.

Tea and wine, on one table? Why?

However, Long Ming didn't pay any attention to her. He gently dipped his jade brush in one of the teacups and used it as ink to start painting.

The lady became stunned when she looked at Long Ming. With his Desolate Immortal Aura, Long Ming looked like a white lotus amidst the mud.

" Greetings, Miss An, I am Long Ming." Long Ming spoke with a graceful smile.

An Lu'an looked at him as she asked him to sit along with her.

He took a sip from the other cup while he dipped and painted using the tea. Soon, the ethereal painting came into sight as Long Ming finished both cups of tea.

However, the lady was again surprised as Long Ming gently took the wine cup and splashed it on the painting.

" Yo-You! The painting was already good. Why did you splash wine on it?" The lady couldn't help but stand up and shout. However, Long Ming didn't glance at her as he kept staring at the painting.

The lady became stunned when she smelled the rich fragrance of the wine. Long Ming gently guided the gliding drops of wine on the painting with his jade brush as the painting became complete.

" Well, The Rippling Sea Tea is a type of tea that is grown on the shores of Westerward Bay. It contains the rich energy of the Water attribute and a trace of Metal qi. The taste also contains the light salty flavor that tingles the taste bud."

" The tea is serene and gives a vast impression like the sea. Therefore, I used it to create a scenery." Long Ming smiled as he faced the lady.

" Then, What about the wine?"

The lady asked with a curious voice."

" The wine is dreamy and intoxicating, like the beauty before me."

The lady became startled as she glanced at the painting again.

Before the wine, it was the exact scenery outside of the Autumn Pool Pavilion. A small pool of clear, tranquil water with a gently autumn scenery. However, after the splash of wine, She could see a hazy outline of a graceful woman, glancing at the scenery from the side.

It was none other than herself!

" Such an exquisite painting. I don't think young noble isn't someone renowned." The lady spoke with a gentle smile.

" I am not famous at all." Long Ming shook his head as he closed his paper pan. " Just a scholar roaming across the land."

" I am An Lu'an."

" Greetings, Miss An, I am Long Ming." Long Ming spoke with a graceful smile.

An Lu'an looked at him as she asked him to sit along with her.

" I guess you successfully piqued my attention, Young Noble Long. What do you wish from me?"

Well, I hope you like politics and do not feel bored due to the lack of courting death and mad slaughter.
