The young girl laughed and said, ’Yes, but such a promise should only be rembered by , he should be the one to bring it up. If I ask like this, it’s as if I’m forcing him, right?’
’I don’t want it to be this way...’
’Then let’s change the question.’
Xuanhu didn’t understand such a question, he just felt that the young girl’s palm was soft and warm, like the jade hidden in the mountains, very comfortable. The girl stood up, her hands crossed behind her back, fingers interlocked, and she tiptoed slightly.
The southwest wind blew, lifting her black hair slightly.
Xuanhu asked, ’What to ask?’
The girl closed her eyes, fingers hooked together, footsteps falling, and she turned around with a sly question, ’Then ask him, does he still need money?’
At this mont, Xuanhu felt deeply disappointed, enough to slap his paw capable of smashing armor against the auspicious beast, but it seed he couldn’t even break the defense, just gritted his teeth and said, "You, you, you, the previous question doesn’t count!"
"The last question, do you still need money?!"
Li Guanyi lowered his eyes, having understood the emotion the girl wanted to inquire about yet restrained, and lightly chuckled: "I do!"
Xuanhu nodded: "Then it’s you."
Li Guanyi grinned, wondering why this final acknowledgnt from Xuanhu sohow made him slightly displeased.
Why is it who needs money?
But thinking about the plans for the Western Regions’ city, the literacy programs for the Thirty-six Tribes, the foundational constructions in Jiangnan, Li Guanyi’s forehead started sweating a little, then decisively acknowledged.
The auspicious beast, having been slapped multiple tis by Xuanhu Mountain Lord, was completely unhard. Anyway, as long as things worked out in the end, it swayed its head rrily: "Ahahaha, then it’s you, oh dear."
"Fantastic, after hiding for so long, finally found you, here, this is my...I an, it’s the promise of this auspicious beast."
"Don’t forget it!"
The auspicious beast solemnly extended its claw, trying to present three claws.
"Three als, every day there’s a big bowl of milk."
"This cannot be missed!"
Li Guanyi laughed heartily: "Alright!"
The auspicious beast rejoiced: "You’re a good person!"
Li Guanyi grinned, feeling the creature was quite greedy, even worried about it being tricked away, holding the wooden box, and brushing his fingers over, finding twenty-four Bright Pearls arranged within, each one large and exuding Divine Charm.
These are materials sufficient to forge Divine Weapon-like Primordial Spirit weapons, even capable of preventing observation and divination from the Three Sects of the World, able to avoid thods from magicians like Hou Zhongyu.
Even Aunt Murong Qiushui’s Zither Sound couldn’t harm it.
Suddenly, it looked familiar to Li Guanyi...
Hmm? This is...
After observing for a while, he suddenly understood.
These Bright Pearls seem vaguely similar to the ones in Elder Xue’s little courtyard used for illumination, maybe just a bit alike.
This slight degree of likeness was sowhat significant.
Li Guanyi scrutinized for a long ti, the more he looked, the more he felt these resembled the elder’s things from his mory. Grinning, he understood that Miss likely rummaged through the elder’s treasures when he was absent.
At least those few pearls could not escape.
...Wonder what expression the elder will have upon returning to find his courtyard dismantled.
Li Guanyi’s expression was peculiar, his palm brushed over these Bright Pearls, suddenly detecting a hint of difference, his Primordial Spirit seed to sense imprints concealed on these pearls.
These twenty-four Bright Pearls are treasures of the Southern Country.
If not extraordinarily odd, they wouldn’t qualify to compare with the Jiuli Divine Weapon’s tal, akin to the Nine Provinces Tripod, capable of retaining Divine Charm.
Thus, upon the Bright Pearls, it seed as if reflecting the image of the young girl, sotis laughing, sotis beset by sword and blade, other tis carefree, sotis tense-faced, sotis south-bound, sotis in the Central Plains, sotis in autumn’s falling leaves, sotis in winter’s plum snow.
The final residual image seed to show the young girl carefully attending these pearls before arriving in the southwest, smilingly saying to soone: "Hmm, put the dossiers there, I will read them well today."
"Thank you."
She then took and placed each pearl lightly into the wooden box:
"This one, from Ying Country’s princess..."
"These three, from the Turkic royal tent on the grassland..."
"This one, is..."
Li Guanyi seed to hear the girl’s soft whispers, his expression suddenly growing complex.
The world is vast, Chen Country, Ying Country, Western Regions, grasslands, spanning tens of thousands of miles in each direction, even riding the best Dragon Horse, galloping from one end of the mountains to the other side of the world, requires much ti.
Nurous treasures are in the hands of the powerful or Martial World Grandmasters.
Li Guanyi didn’t know how the girl managed to collect these Bright Pearls one by one, then pack them, clearly she was being watched by countless eyes back in Chen Country, yet she still arrived here amid chaos.
Over twenty years ago, his father scattered the twenty-four Bright Pearls across the world for his mother.
Over twenty years later, soone did the sa for him, collecting the scattered Bright Pearls piece by piece in exchange for a promise from the Southwest Prince.
But in the end, all was said and done, yet only resulted in a light laugh.
Still better not to ask...
Marquis Qin Wu, known across the world, held the wooden box, for so reason, feeling these twenty-four Bright Pearls weighed heavier than the Fierce Tiger Sky Shouting Halberd wielded by the overlord eight hundred years ago, almost unstable in his grasp.
The auspicious beast stretched out its claw for Li Guanyi to take hold, the face tight:
