When it ca to real-life matters, Bai Xiaotong's attitude towards Tang Rao imdiately changed.
"Auntie, give a few more months. Fixing the Imperial Palace isn't sothing that can be done with just a word. Think about it, how many years did it take to build the palace in Tiandu? A few months for our palace isn't too much, right?"
Tang Rao reassured Bai Xiaotong, telling her that their living conditions wouldn't just remain as they were now.
"I'll pretend I believe you. Just do it your way. However many months you say, I'll go with it."
Bai Xiaotong was still thinking about living in the Imperial Palace? She didn't even dare to imagine it.
"Quickly, take Lei Li and You Xiaoxiao inside. Jinxiu has already cleared a place for you. Once Xiao Xiao and Lei Li are settled, I'll take you out for a stroll. As long as you're within the Kao Shan Sect, you're perfectly safe."
Tang Rao made so many preparations, with halos and arrays, and if sothing went wrong, he'd shave his head in apology.
"Tang Rao, our place isn't enough anymore. If you keep bringing won back, we won't even have room to squeeze."
The other won took care of You Xiaoxiao and Lei Li, while Fang Jinxiu arranged accommodations and inford Tang Rao about the current situation at the Kao Shan Sect.
"Not a single room left?"
He hadn't thought about bringing more won, but lacking space was a big issue.
"No more."
Fang Jinxiu shrugged and shook her head.
"Auntie, can I ask you sothing?"
Tang Rao didn't ask why there were no places left but instead turned to Bai Xiaotong with a question.
Bai Xiaotong, eavesdropping, was having fun. When Tang Rao suddenly asked her, she had no idea why she was being dragged into the conversation.
"What is it?"
As long as Tang Rao wasn't asking her for money to buy a house, everything was fine.
"Auntie, you see our current living situation is also hard to find. I discussed it with a friend a few days ago. Haven't you always dread of running a brothel, like in the old days? I could help you set up a brothel with so girls, and you could manage it. Can you handle it?"
Tang Rao almost scared Bai Xiaotong to death.
"You want to be the madam of a brothel selling flesh?"
"Yeah, but never mind, it was silly of to think you could do such a thing. Bla it on my poor judgnt."
Tang Rao almost wanted to slap himself but couldn't bear to ss up his handso face.
"Oh, dear nephew, I really don't like hearing that. Being a madam has been my lifelong dream, and I'm thrilled you rembered it. I'm feeling quite pleased right now."
Bai Xiaotong's swift change of face left Tang Rao in disbelief.
"So, you're agreeing?"
Tang Rao asked again.
"I agree, but you have to finance everything. I won't spend a penny. Plus, if the brothel doesn't do well and goes under, you can't bla ."
Saying the ugly words upfront, Bai Xiaotong had never done such a business before, so whether it would go well or not was still a question mark.
"No worries, one closes, and I'll open another. As long as you don't mistreat the girls to death, finding a place is a small matter for ."
Tang Rao snapped his fingers, indicating everything was under his control.
"Tang Rao, what kind of person do you take for? I'm not soone who would mistreat people."
Bai Xiaotong's revered image could not be sullied upon coming to the Divine Realm, she strongly opposed such notions.
"Auntie, you're the best, and everything is up to you."
Seeing Bai Xiaotong was seriously upset, Tang Rao quickly tried to calm her down.
Because of their loud quarrel, You Xiaoxiao and Lei Li, the last two unconscious ones, also woke up completely.
"Tang Rao, are we really in the Divine Realm now?"
You Xiaoxiao felt as if her whole body had been disassembled and reassembled.
"This is your future ho. Whether you like it or not, you have to accept it!"
Tang Rao had a 'what can you do about it' look, which infuriated the newly awakened You Xiaoxiao.
"Tang Rao, are you trying to piss off intentionally? I just arrived in the Divine Realm and you're already irritating ."
"No, I was just joking. Don't take this big guy seriously. My chatty mouth isn't good with words, just pretend you didn't hear anything."
Tang Rao said so soothing words to You Xiaoxiao, and her mood improved.
"Wow!"
Just as You Xiaoxiao and Lei Li were about to get up to look around, Tang Xiaobai suddenly burst into tears.
"Why is Tang Xiaobai crying?"
Tang Rao walked over to Tang Xiaobai and looked at the child who was practically a miniature version of himself. Hearing the cries erging from chaos, Tang Rao's old, hardened heart lted.
"I don't know either. Tang Xiaobai never cried before."
The mothers were all quite startled by Tang Xiaobai.
While they were in a state of disarray, the Kao Shan Sect began to shake violently.
"Not good!"
Tang Rao grabbed as many as he could and rushed outside with them.
As soon as they got out, there was no more shaking on the ground.
"Tang Rao, what's going on?"
The won, all visiting the Divine Realm for the first ti, were anxious to find the cause of this sudden event.
"I don't know either."
The Kao Shan Sect wasn't damaged, but a mountain a little ways off had completely disappeared, leaving not even a trace of dust.
This residence standing firm for years depended on the mountain shielding it from the wind. With the mountain gone, predicting how many more years the residence could last beca uncertain.
"Boss, we saw loads of blood falling from the sky around us. Besides the array-protected Kao Shan Sect, it's chaos outside now."
The Kao Shan Sect brothers quickly gathered and assessed the situation outside before Tang Rao ca out, ready to report their findings.
Exactly, as Tang Rao suspected such a commotion, how did the Kao Shan Sect remain unaffected? Bringing in the halos and arrays explained everything.
"All of you stay inside. I'm going out to check."
Tang Rao stopped the won who wanted to follow him out with a single gesture.
"Tang Rao, take this gun with you. In case of danger, it might co in handy."
These won were lower gods, and if a middle god wanted to bully them while walking outside, they couldn't fight back. The Divine Realm valued strength over dignity. Fang Jinxiu realized this first, actively devising ways to help Tang Rao improve his weaponry.
Tang Rao took the gun and planted a kiss on Fang Jinxiu's cheek.
"Thank you, Jinxiu, I'll be back soon."
Without casting another glance at the worried won, Tang Rao resolutely walked away.
"Boss, it's over here. I heard people around saying that it seed two upper gods were fighting over sothing minor, and they moved too fast. No one knows where they've gone now."
