"In the future, if both of us take action and it's not in line with the original state when the Divine Decree was signed, if it's deed that we did not give it our all, then we're in trouble."
Sun Ning and another briefly discussed the situation and, finding no other solution, could only continue with the action they had just begun.
Upon mastering the complete Divine Skills of Stone Cast Earth Treasure, Ning Zhuo coordinated with Sun Lingtong to excavate the entire Stone Ball.
They did not mine it but directly stuffed it into the Ten-Thousand-Li Travelling Dragon.
At last, they rode the Ten-Thousand-Li Travelling Dragon, once again traversing the void, and returned to the vicinity of Canglin Immortal City.
The Ten-Thousand-Li Travelling Dragon had beco even more dilapidated.
It had already sustained 50 percent damage earlier, and after another round trip, its outer shell was severely damaged, and many dragon scales were lost.
Additionally, many parts had turned to stone.
Ning Zhuo wrapped the tattered Ten-Thousand-Li Travelling Dragon around his waist like a belt, proceeding slowly back to Three Generals Camp.
"The Military Adviser is back!" The soldiers, seeing Ning Zhuo, voluntarily saluted and greeted him.
Ning Zhuo had previously impressed the entire assembly on the Command Platform with a masterful use of the Tree Realm Descent Spell, earning the respect of the entire army.
Ning Zhuo observed the training of the soldiers by Liu, Guan, and Zhang.
Seeing that they had not noticed he had embezzled the funds, he shook his head in secret.
The hearts of these Three Generals were indeed great.
He returned to his tent and began to go over the accounts.
In the middle of it, he put down his pen and sighed.
Not long ago, he had been on the brink of life and death, and now he was inside his tent, outside of which were the intermittent shouts of the Three Generals and the cheers of the Cultivators, a sense of security naturally arising.
Ning Zhuo felt a sense of surreal detachnt, an unreality.
"The military situation of Liangzhu Country has been leaked, and Thousand Peak Forest is planning to ambush the new army."
"I am the Military Adviser of the Three Generals Camp; at that ti, I will inevitably march with them and beco a target of ambush by a group of Nascent Souls and Golden Core Cultivators."
"What's worse is that Boss Sun and I have signed a Divine Decree, obligating us to deal with Liangzhu Country and to do so with our full efforts!"
"What should be done now?"
This really put Ning Zhuo in a difficult position.
At that mont, the tent flap was lifted, and Liu Er walked in.
Seeing Ning Zhuo with a frown on his face, Liu Er imdiately showed a friendly smile: "Military Adviser, I really put you on the spot by having you manage the accounts."
Ning Zhuo quickly stood up and saluted.
Liu Er waved his hand and indicated in a friendly manner that, among our own people, there was no need for such formalities.
Liu Er's approachable deanor and the way he treated people as if a spring breeze made Ning Zhuo's heart feel lighter.
Ning Zhuo sighed: "Although the military accounts can be clearly settled, the future is worrying, my lord."
"At present, our military funds can only last three months."
In truth, Ning Zhuo had embezzled a large amount of Spirit Stones, and it was already insufficient to last three months.
He had not yet had the chance to balance the books.
Ning Zhuo added: "Moreover, while I was settling the accounts, my spirit was stirred and I had many bad premonitions."
"I feel that the future is bleak; that's why I deeply sighed and felt downhearted."
Upon hearing this, Liu Er beca very interested: "Military Adviser, to have such a stirring, could it be that you have the ability to do Divination?"
Ning Zhuo gave a slight smile: "To say that I am a Divination Master, I would not dare presu so."
"But indeed I have cultivated one or two types of Divination Skill, with Array Calculation my strongest."
"My lord, I request permission to use so military funds to perform Array Calculation for the future of our Three Generals Camp!"
Liu Er promptly inquired about the costs.
Ning Zhuo gave him a figure.
Liu Er fell into hesitation. The military funds were already scarce. Spending them on Divination ant they would not even last three months.
"The military funds are not mine alone, I must discuss them with my second and third brothers as well," Liu Er said after so thought.
Ning Zhuo extended his hand: "Please discuss it as soon as possible, my lord. Ti is of the essence."
Liu Er nodded, sighed, and said, "I will go and inquire right away. Please wait a mont, Military Adviser."
Liu Er left the tent to find Zhang Hei and Guan Hong, who were still training soldiers.
Seeing his course of action, Ning Zhuo knew that in Three Generals Camp, he no longer needed to settle any accounts.
