Keyboard Immortal - Chapter 2819

Chapter 1332 Round Table Conference

Chu Chuyan was already tense because of the transparent glass windows around the bridge, and this sudden video call made her tense up even more.

She was naturally aloof and conservative, and the reason she agreed to this with Zu An today was because they had been separated for so long, and years of longing had transformed into the most intense love.

But who knew someone else would see this!

Even if it was just a young girl, she almost fainted.

What was even more infuriating was that Zu An was still slowly moving!

Chu Chuyan’s anger level increased by 119+119+119…

Zu An gasped. Chu Chuyan, who was originally a cold iceberg, now seemed like the continental plates of the world constantly colliding and squeezing, finally causing the volcanic lava in the earth’s core to erupt continuously.

He also never expected Isabella to contact him at this time, and why did the video call automatically start without him having to answer?

Isabella on the other end was in a room filled with girly pink; judging from the cute decorations, it must be her boudoir.

Thankfully, she was alone…

Isabella’s eyes widened in disbelief. The starship she had given to Zuan naturally had relevant alerts and notifications set up.

Upon learning that the starship was heading towards the Contract Star Sea, she was overjoyed and immediately thought of contacting Brother Zuan to chat.

But what she saw when she opened the screen was this…

That woman was truly beautiful. Could she be the wife Brother Zuan had mentioned before, sealed beneath the Bridge of Helplessness?

But her current appearance was hard to reconcile with the aloof, icy fairy Brother Zuan had described…

Brother Zuan was so wicked; he had been playing around with Sister Fireworks before.

For some unknown reason, her face flushed red at a visible speed.

The three of them stared at each other, the atmosphere becoming extremely awkward.

Isabella, being from a prominent family, reacted quickly:

“Huh, why isn’t the video call connected? Looks like we’re too far apart, the signal isn’t strong enough.”

“Never mind, I’ll contact Brother Zu later, maybe the signal will be better then.”

Isabella muttered to herself, seemingly fumbling for a button, and soon the video cut off.

Zu An chuckled; anyone could see through the girl’s clumsy acting.

But with this excuse, everyone managed to save face.

Chu Chuyan, on the other hand, was utterly ashamed and indignant: “It’s all your fault, I’m so embarrassed!”

“You really were… embarrassed just now.”

“???”

Chu Chuyan was both angry and anxious, wanting to turn around and bite him, but she was too weak to do so.

“You’re going to do it again?”

“Since things have come to this, if we don’t continue, we’ll just be taking the blame for nothing.”

“…”

Chu Chuyan felt like she was going crazy; after not seeing him for a while, this guy Zu was becoming more and more reckless.

The shock, shame, and excitement of that brief moment gave her a feeling she’d never experienced before, and she’d even foolishly followed along with him.

Until the storm subsided, reason finally prevailed, and she ran back to her room in shame and anger, ignoring Zaun’s calls.

Looking at the finger marks on her body, Zaun chuckled, knowing she was always shy and that what had just happened was too much for her; she needed time to process it.

After straightening his clothes, he returned to the bridge and had Aphrodite make a video call to Isabella. To

his surprise, no one answered for a long time, only managing to connect on the third attempt.

“Ugh, the signal is really bad,” Isabella said on the screen, glancing around as if afraid of seeing something she shouldn’t.

Zaun chuckled again; her acting was truly terrible, a world apart from fireworks.

However, it was better not to dwell on the awkwardness of what had just happened. He coughed lightly, “Isabella, I didn’t expect to see you again so soon.”

“Yes, I thought it would be much longer.” Seeing that he didn’t bring up what had just happened, Isabella breathed a sigh of relief, but then felt a little strange. It wasn’t me who made the mistake, so why was I the one who felt guilty?

“Has anything important happened in your merchant guild recently?” Zaun asked ambiguously, not wanting to reveal what the True God had said directly.

“Something important?” Isabella was taken aback at first, then seemed to realize something, her expression becoming somewhat unnatural. “There is indeed something important. I’ll tell you when Brother Zaun arrives.”

Zaun nodded. There were too many secrets in the universe that couldn’t be spoken aloud, especially not this kind of long-distance video communication; who knew if others would overhear?

“By the way, could you tell me about your merchant guild? I asked Aphrodite, but unfortunately, she said much of it was confidential and she didn’t have the authority to disclose it.”

Every time you go somewhere, you have to do intelligence gathering beforehand, otherwise a nine-out-of-ten chance of survival could turn into a ten-out-of-ten chance.

“What does Brother Zu want to know?” “

The situation of several members of the Chamber of Commerce’s roundtable conference.”

The Universal Chamber of Commerce spans countless star systems and connects countless worlds. This behemoth is managed by members of a roundtable conference, each of whom is a figure at the pinnacle of power in all the heavens and myriad realms.

Since I’m going to the Chamber of Commerce’s headquarters, I’ll inevitably have to deal with those people.

“Well, outsiders don’t really know, but it’s not a secret to me,” Isabella smiled. “There are seven people at the Round Table. The First Elder, Oberon, is known as the Hand of Order. He’s quite a dignified figure.”

Her expression gradually turned serious as she mentioned him: “He’s the most devout follower of the God of Order, believing that strict order is the cornerstone of cosmic civilization.”

“But he’s a bit of a stubborn, old-fashioned guy. I’ve been a little afraid of him since I was a child.” Isabella stuck out her tongue, looking like she still had some lingering fear, as if she was recalling the scene of being scolded by him back then.

“The Second Elder, Hermes, is resolute, strong, and somewhat arrogant. He’s in charge of the entire commercial empire’s operations. Any behavior that affects or disrupts the merchant guild’s business will be considered an enemy by him.”

Zaun smiled: “Your merchant guild certainly needs someone like that.”

“Oh, right, there’s something else you need to be careful about, Brother Zaun. The Second Elder is very devoted in love. He hates people who are unfaithful in love the most. You must not provoke him.” Isabella suddenly remembered something and hurriedly reminded him.

Zuan: “…”

She guessed the scene just now had too much of an impact on her…

Isabella continued, “The Second Elder is very handsome, and even in his old age, he possesses an extraordinary air. Coupled with his status and position, countless women throughout the realms have expressed their love for him. However, he has remained unmarried his entire life. I heard that he fell in love with someone when he was young, but that girl disappeared, so he can never let go of her.”

“By the way, Aphrodite was created by him. Rumor has it that she was created by the Second Elder in the image of his former lover.”

Zuan recalled Aphrodite’s appearance and agreed, “Aphrodite was indeed very beautiful; no wonder he could never forget her.”

“The Third Elder is my father; you’ve met him,” Isabella suddenly blushed slightly, “What’s your impression of him?”
