I'm bombarding the Supernatural World with my firearms-Chapter 400 - 343: "Did you understand?"_2
"But I just contacted many marketing company accounts, and all the videos they released were taken down after review."
"The platform has set the acquisition of Experience Cards as prohibited content, not allowing such things to be uploaded. They’re also keeping this matter off the trending search. There must be many powerful forces operating in the background."
"Everyone still doesn’t want to drive the price of Experience Cards too high, even if the buying speed is slower. They don’t want it to become common knowledge."
"There’s been a problem with the plan."
"If it can’t reach the trending search, the majority of players won’t know that Miao is buying Experience Cards. You can’t establish an industry standard purchase price, but there’s still a way to fix this. There’s an item called the global horn."
"Extremely rare, when used, it can deliver a system notification to the ear of every player."
"We can try to acquire one of these items, then use it to resolve our mother’s predicament."
"Hmm?"
Chen Miao slightly frowned: "Aren’t you self-proclaimed as a strategical advisor? Why complicate a simple issue?"
Ke Gou was taken aback, momentarily unsure of what to say next. Was this complicating a simple issue? Hadn’t he just provided a solution?
"There’s no need for that much trouble."
Chen Miao shook his head: "You’ve just joined the Tomb Guardians, so not understanding their style is understandable. Tomb Guardians always solve problems from the root, as any problem in this world is caused by people."
"Tomb Guardians may not have the ability to solve any problem, but they certainly have the ability to solve anyone’s problem."
"Didn’t you just say the platform side won’t allow it?"
"Who is the platform side? I’ll go have a personal chat with them."
"Uh..."
Ke Gou instantly understood Chen Miao’s intention, speaking in a cautious and soft voice: "It’s a big family in Jingjiu City, the Wei Chi Family. They are the largest controlling shareholder of this platform, with absolute decision-making power."
"This family is also one of the main forces behind the multiple acquisitions this time."
"Obviously, the Wei Chi Family knows that if this news is fully spread, their acquisition costs will increase significantly."
"Hmm."
Chen Miao nodded and then stood up to walk outside the house: "Come with me for a trip."
...
Two hours later.
It’s nearly three AM now, and most people have gradually entered dreamland after the frenzied celebration following the E-grade promotion battles, except for a few players still too excited to sleep from their enormous rewards.
It felt just like hitting the jackpot.
Meanwhile, in Jingjiu City enveloped by night, the Wei Chi Family’s estate in the suburbs was brightly lit. Almost all family members, dressed and completely alert, stood in every corner, ready to either attack or flee at a moment’s notice.

Tonight, the Wei Chi Family had an esteemed visitor.
"Do you understand?"
Sitting inside the Wei Chi Family’s main hall, Chen Miao picked up his teacup, took a light sip, and then spoke indifferently: "Before dawn, I want to see the news of Chen Miao’s high-priced acquisition of Experience Value Exchange Cards hit the top of the trending search, visible to most players."
"If before dawn, this news hasn’t reached the top of the trending search,"
"Then yesterday’s sunset might be the last one the Wei Chi Family members will have ever seen."
"Do you understand what I mean?"
At this moment, inside the Wei Chi Family’s main hall, facing Chen Miao’s blatant threat, many were red-faced with suppressed anger but dared not speak out. After all, the Wei Chi Family was one of the largest in Jingjiu City, and this kind of home invasion and humiliation was utterly disgraceful.
If it were anyone else, they would have allowed the person to walk out alive after spouting threats, but with Chen Miao, they couldn’t muster even a bit of temper. Expressing a little anger was the extent of their courage.
As for curse words... they wouldn’t dare utter a single one.
With the firepower Chen Miao displayed in the E-grade civilization promotion battle, it wouldn’t be any trouble for him alone to wipe out the Wei Chi Clan.
"This..."
The Wei Chi Family Clan Leader, after a long silence, finally met Chen Miao’s gaze and said seriously, "Business has its ways of doing things, Miao. What you’re doing is breaking the rules, and once rules are broken, they’re very hard to mend."
"Business is business."
"What we’re doing is completely normal business behavior."
"Who says I’m breaking the rules?"
Chen Miao, impatiently putting down the teacup on the table, stood up, swept his eyes around the room with a cold laugh, and said, "These are my rules, and this is my way of doing business. Whoever makes me uncomfortable, I’ll make sure they never have the chance to be comfortable again."
"Forget about thinking it over, just wait for your death."
"After you are all dead, I’ll take my time handling it."
Having said that, Chen Miao was about to wave his hand to summon the Sky Eye Matrix Cannon, but just then, the Wei Chi Clan Leader suddenly put out a hand to stop Chen Miao with a serious expression, "Miao, what are you talking about? It’s just a joke, isn’t it?"
"Look, isn’t this number one trending topic about you buying Experience Value Exchange Cards at a high price, Miao?"
"Eh?"
Chen Miao leaned over to take a look, and was somewhat surprised to find that the previous number one trending topic wasn’t this; it had suddenly become this in a blink of an eye, "That fast?"
"Naturally."
The Wei Chi Clan Leader patted his chest earnestly and said, "A straightforward person does straightforward things."

Chen Miao turned his head to look at Ke Gou behind him, puzzled, "Is this okay? He didn’t seem to find some marketing account to release a video."
"It’s completely fine."
Ke Gou spoke in a quiet tone. He had never imagined that one day, the colossal Clan Leader behind this platform would act so humble in front of Miao, terrified that a single wrong word might lead to the annihilation of his family.
He suddenly realized what it felt like to have a powerful backer.
Having been too cautious in his actions while by Chi Qiu’s side for too long, he had forgotten what it felt like to have someone watching his back.
"Then that’s good."
Chen Miao, satisfied, patted Ke Gou’s shoulder and said, "You’re in charge from now on, try to spend all the Star Coins I gave you. If someone tries to stop you in the process, tell me immediately. Even if they’re one of the big families in Jingjiu City, I can easily wipe them out."
As he spoke these words, Chen Miao appeared to casually look at the Wei Chi Clan Leader with a smile, but his words were brimming with naked power.
...
The next day.
When most players woke up from their dreams,
nine out of the top ten trending searches were about Chen Miao, turning him into a complete superstar in terms of trending traffic. Apart from discussing yesterday’s feat of killing the world boss in one strike and evaluating the Energy Attack Coefficients,
the number one trending topic was the news about Chen Miao buying Experience Cards at high prices.
The contact information provided was for Chi Qiu, who was personally responsible for the purchase and handling of the goods. For him, the more Experience Cards the better, with no limit—the more, the merrier.
Very soon—
Just as Chen Miao returned to The Land of Extreme Cold with Ke Gou and others, he received the first message that players had sold them Experience Value Exchange Cards. It wasn’t much, only 10,000 Experience Points, exchanged at the cost of 20,000 Star Coins.
But this was definitely a good start.
And Ke Gou had set the exchange rate between Experience Points and Star Coins at 1:2.
This was already a very attractive ratio to most players, especially since the system itself exchanged Experience Points for Star Coins at a ratio of 1:1, while other powers often bought Experience Points at a ratio of 2:1, or even 3:1, 4:1.
Much lower than their prices.
In the past, the market lacked transparency, so comparisons were not possible, but with the clear prices shown on the trending searches, the Supernaturals who had yet to sell their Experience Cards suddenly all turned their attention to Chen Miao.
The price was right, the payment was quick, and the reputation was solid.
Was there a better buyer than this?
And so... a price war without the smoke of gunpowder was ignited, and it was over before it even began—after all, not many powers could compete with Chen Miao when it came to Star Coin reserves.
