At the same time, Zu An was extremely curious about the weapons. Werenāt they all the legendary Nezhaās weapons?! Why had they ended up with the ocean races? Nezha had messed with the sea, but then after all of that, he had still been captured by the ocean races and had all of his weapons stripped away?
But even though these weapons were heaven-grade and already quite powerful, they were still quite far off from the legendary deity-grade.
His expression suddenly went momentarily blank. The cultivators of this world could all fly and go wherever they wanted. They werenāt that much weaker than the legendary figures from his previous world! Could it be that Nezha really had crossed over to this world, but for some reason, he had ended up dying? In the end, had his weapons also been lost?
Zu An suddenly felt a bit uncomfortable when he thought of that.
ā¦
Meanwhile, Shang Liuyu had already poured out some ki stones and other treasures from the conch. She said, āChi Wen caused Bluefield Country quite a bit of damage. Iāll have to trouble you to pass on these things to their people.ā
Chi Wen was starting to get really upset. Bluefield Countryās fox women couldn't even win against him, so why did they deserve any compensation? Still, Shang Liuyu had already guaranteed things, and there was that reaper Zu An next to her. He didnāt dare to voice any objections.
Zu An was stunned. Judging from her intentions, it seemed likeā¦
āAre you going to leave?ā he asked.
Shang Liuyu nodded and replied, āI prefer peace and quiet, so I donāt wish to have any dealings with them. There are all of those female friends of yours too, so meeting them would be annoying.ā
Zu Anās face heated up. He indeed did have a bit too many female friends with him.
āThereās not much time left; itās time for me to leave. Weāll meet again if fate wills it,ā Shang Liuyu said. She smiled at Zu An and casually waved her hand. Then, she hooked her slender finger around the wine gourdās strap, and left in a carefree and easy manner. Her figure gradually faded into the distance.
She hadnāt even given Chi Wen a single look during the entire process, leaving him incredibly downcast.Ā Just who is Auntie closer to?
However, he noticed how absentminded Zu An was as he watched his auntieās departing figure. He was alarmed, thinking,Ā These two have an affair going on!
I see how it isā¦ Iām an idiot for thinking that auntie was doing this to save me. Looks like she was just using this chance to give all the Dragon King Palaceās treasures to her lover. Preposterous! Iāll definitely report this to my dad once I get back!
You have successfully trolled Chi Wen for +555 +555 +555ā¦
Zu An snapped out of his daze when he saw the Rage points. He gave Chi Wen a cold look, asking, āDo you want to die?ā
Chi Wen jumped in fright, thinking,Ā Is this guy a mind reader?Ā He quickly said with an apologetic smile, āI really failed to recognize someone close. If I knew you were my auntieās partner, I wouldnāt have dared to do anything to youā¦ā
Auntieās partner?Ā Zu An was a bit dumbfounded by the term. Shang Liuyu had just left, and yet Chi Wen was already selling her out.
However, he didnāt feel like explaining himself. He replied, āHmph, as a favor for your aunt, Iāll spare you today. I hope youāll shape up after today.ā
Chi Wen chuckled and said, āAuntieās partner, this is our first meeting. Arenāt you going to give me some blessings?ā Now that he knew that there was something going on between Zu An and his aunt, he was no longer that scared.
Zu Anās expression turned cold. This guy had been acting all arrogant before when he was bullying the fox women; it clearly wasnāt the first time. If not for Shang Liuyu, he might have just skinned this guy alive. Yet this guy dared to ask for a gift?
Still, seeing how much this fella had paid up this time, if Zu An didnāt give him a thing, he might instead take his anger out on Shang Liuyu. That wouldnāt be good for Shang Liuyu once Chi Wen went back to the Ocean Races. As such, he opened up the Brilliant Glass Bead. He was about to give him some medicines to help with his injuries, but when he remembered Chi Wenās deeds, Zu An thought it would be better for him to suffer for a bit. And yet, Zu An really didnāt know what else to give him.
Chi Wen moved over to him. He got up on his tiptoes and looked into the Brilliant Glass Bead. Suddenly, his eyes lit up and Ā he said, āThat one, I want that one, that blue one.ā
The items stored in the Brilliant Glass Bead could vaguely be discerned from the outside.
Zu An had a strange expression as he asked, āAre you sure you want this thing?ā
āYeah, Iām sure,ā Chi Wen said. He was worried that Zu An wouldnāt be willing and quickly added, āAuntieās partner, I gave you so many heaven-grade weapons earlier. If you arenāt even willing to give me this single thing, arenāt you being a bit too selfish?ā
That thing sparkled with blue light; it was clearly not an ordinary object.
Zu Anās expression became even stranger as he said, āItās not that Iām not willing, but rather that Iām scared that youāll blame me in the future.ā
When he saw Zu Anās conflicted expression, Chi Wen thought to himself,Ā Are you trying to fool me like this on purpose?
After all, anything stored in a magical artifact would be precious. That thing looked so mystical, it was definitely extraordinary. As such, he patted his chest and said, āAuntieās partner, this is where youāre mistaken. The gift of an elder should never be refused. Anything you give me will be good for me, so how can I blame you?ā
Seeing that Zu An was still hesitating, he grew nervous. He continued, āOnce I go back to the Dragon King Palace, my father the king will definitely ask me where all those weapons went. I canāt just say that auntie gave all of them to you, right? You have to give me some kind of gift in return, and only then can I barely explain things in front of my fatherā¦ā
Zu An gave him the blue chunk of ice after hearing that, but he said, āIt really isnāt that Iām not willing, but that this thing isnāt something good.ā
It was the āBlue Ice From Beyondā he had gotten recently from the valkyrie gacha! To put it frankly, it was urine and stool that had been processed in an airplane and stored in an ice chunk. Of course, that kind of ice was a bit special and wouldnāt melt that easily.
āItās fine, itās fine. What kind of treasures is the Dragon Palace lacking? I just like these kinds of new and novel things,ā Chi Wen replied. Inwardly, he thought to himself,Ā Are you still keeping up this act? Youāll have to try harder if you want to fool this prince!
Fearing that the other party might regret it, he seized the chunk of blue ice and fondled it admiringly. He thought to himself that in the past, his father had obtained a stalk of king medicine. He had soaked a bit in water and drank it everyday, extending his life. If he drank this thing every day, his lifespan might catch up to his fatherās too!
Zu An was speechless. He could only say helplessly, āIf you like it that much, you can just take it. Everyone has a right to decide what they want for themselves.ā
Chi Wenās thoughts were completely focused on the chunk of blue ice; he wasnāt in the mood to talk anymore. He hastily exchanged a few more words before rushing off on his own.
Zu An shook his head. He was definitely not going to eat at the same table as this guy in the future, and he had to remember to remind Shang Liuyu too.
ā¦
After dealing with that matter, Zu An returned to Bluefield Palace. He discovered that the women were all staring at him.
āWhy are you alone?ā Yu Yanluo asked, looking behind him.
āI let him go.ā Zu An replied. He added to Tushan Yu, āHeās a relative of my friend; this is the compensation he gave as an apology. I hope the country lord doesnāt take too much offense.ā He took out the ki stones and medicines Chi Wen had given up.
Tushan Yu said gently, āIt is all thanks to your help this time, so why would I blame you? Furthermore, Chi Wen is a son the Dragon King dotes on. If something really happened to him in Bluefield Country, it would have become a disaster. Letting him go is good too.ā
The other three women all raised their eyebrows.Ā This woman really is understanding; no wonder men like her so much.
Then, Tushan Yu tried to refuse the compensation, feeling that it was what Zu An should take. After expending great effort, Zu An finally convinced her to take it all.
Yun Jianyue was getting annoyed. She said, āDamn brat, thereās proper business to talk about. Whereās the other one?ā
Zu An was stunned. He asked, āDidnāt I just say I let him go?ā
āIām talking about that friend of yours!ā Yun Jianyue replied. SHe added, āYu Yanluo is too embarrassed to ask about it, so thatās why Iām asking.ā
Yan Xuehen subconsciously pricked up her ears. Meanwhile, Yu Yanluo began to panic.Ā They were clearly interested too, so why is all of this being pushed onto me?
Zu An couldn't help but laugh, saying, āIt was an old friend from Brightmoon City. She had something to deal with, so she left first.ā
āReally?ā The three women were all suspicious, but there wasnāt much else they could say.
Tushan Yu said, āEveryone has helped Bluefield Country out a lot, so please stay for a few more days so we can properly repay our guests.ā
The women immediately became vigilant. They were about to refuse when Zu An replied first, āThatās fine too. Iāll have to trouble country leader, then.ā He wanted to take the chance to see who this woman had been receiving instructions from.
The other three women didnāt know what he was thinking, however. They just assumed he thought Tushan Yu was pretty and that he was infatuated with the fox spirit. All of them became a bit unhappy.
You have successfully trolled Yu Yanluo for +88 +88 +88ā¦
You have successfully trolled Yan Xuehen for +88 +88 +88ā¦
You have successfully trolled Yun Jianyue for +88 +88 +88ā¦
Zu An felt a headache.Ā Iām definitely only bringing a single woman with me when I go out next time.
ā¦
Then, the Fox raceās people began to repair the destroyed palace. Tushan Yu had her clansmen prepare a banquet to thank Zu Anās party. Tusahn Yu wanted to talk to Zu An several times, but each time, she could only withdraw guiltily when she saw Yu Yanluo and the other two womenās looks.
Zu An wanted to find out what had been going on the previous night, so he used the excuse of relieving himself to leave the banquet. Somewhere in a remote garden, Tushan Yu seemed to have had the same idea, making her way around and rushing over.
Zu An looked at her pretty features that looked innocent, and yett carried a trace of loveliness. He cut right to the point, asking, āDid you approach me on orders from that Hu Qianxiao?ā
Tushan Yu was initially all smiles, but when she heard that, her little face immediately turned deathly white.
She was just about to reply when Zu An suddenly frowned, because he could sense that Yu Yanluo and the other two women were walking over from different directions, seemingly looking for him.
