They were all extremely grateful, and almost everyone received a high-grade source stone. A high-grade source stone! One stone was worth a hundred million. Most of them were lucky to be able to use a mid-grade source stone when cultivating, let alone a high-grade source stone.

“Gu Yu has won over the hearts of all the warriors in Tu Niu City with this move,” Li Shanpo said, looking at Long Aotian. “I reckon if he waved his hand now and said he wanted to kill you, they would all nod and agree.”

"Let alone those people, even if he told me to kill myself, I would hesitate before doing as he said," Long Aotian said.

Money makes the world go round. Gu Yu has resources now, and those things are more useful to cultivators than money.

Cultivators are poor! Resources are scarce! Even those at the Emperor Realm lack them; the higher the cultivation level, the more resources are needed.

"Many soldiers died this time. The compensation for their deaths and the compensation for Gu Yu should be implemented as soon as possible. Also, their descendants can be exempted from the Dragon Division's assessment and join the Dragon Division." Long Aotian and Li Shanpo got down to business.

“Yes! They are all heroes of humanity, and their descendants must be treated well,” Li Shanpo echoed.

"There's no use in saying so much. Get it implemented by the higher-ups as soon as possible. Oh, and it would be best if they also approved some firearms," ​​Long Aotian said.

"Big brother, my dear big brother! Give me whatever you need, any dirty or hard work, anything you don't want to do anymore, I can do it all, dear big brother..."

Gu Yu was at his wits' end. For three days, the Crimson Dragon had been nagging incessantly in his ear.

"Brother, please wait a moment." Seeing that Gu Yu was about to sit down, Chi Long rushed forward and wiped the stool Gu Yu was about to sit on with his sleeve. "Brother, it's clean now, you can sit down."

"Sigh!" Gu Yu looked at the Crimson Dragon and sighed helplessly. He was about to be driven crazy by this guy. Now he could understand why the Azure Dragon had taken him in. There was no other way; otherwise, he would have been driven crazy by the annoyance.

"Master." At this moment, Qian Duoduo, Ri Jiu, Shi Shuai, Yang Xinxin, He Wen, Lu Yun, and Li Zhiran walked in. They bowed to Gu Yu and called out.

There's no way around it; no matter how good the relationship is, you still have to be mindful of appearances. Gu Yu is the gang leader now.

"How many people are left?" Gu Yu asked the group.

"When we came, there were more than 1,300 of us, but now there are only more than 600 left." Shi Shuai's expression was somewhat sad. Those who died were all his comrades-in-arms!

"More than half of them are dead." Gu Yu frowned. Although he had already guessed the result, he was still slightly stunned when he heard the exact answer.

"Alas! Our combat troops are not strong to begin with, and they are simply unable to resist the Minotaur army," Lu Yun said.

"Have the Originium been distributed?" Gu Yu asked.

In addition to Long Aotian's subsidy, Gu Yu also distributed two high-grade source stones to each member of the battle unit. As for the deceased, the two source stones would be distributed to their families upon their return to Earth, as they were entitled to them.

"The distribution has been completed," Qian Duoduo said.

"Yes! Recover from your injuries as soon as possible. I think this great battle should help your cultivation. Improve your cultivation as quickly as possible. Only by becoming stronger can you better protect others and yourselves," Gu Yu said.

"Big brother, I'll protect you." At this moment, Chi Long heard Gu Yu's words and immediately said, "I am at the peak of the King Realm. I am best at fighting multiple opponents at once, of course, against opponents of the same level."

"Senior, who are you?" Qian Duoduo and the others were shocked when they heard Chi Long's words. In the past few days, although they had seen Chi Long following Gu Yu, they had not asked about Chi Long's identity, and they had not expected that this guy was actually at the peak of the King Realm.

Peak of the King Realm! That's the strongest they've ever reached in their family's power.

"I am the Crimson Dragon." Seeing the shocked and respectful looks on everyone's faces, the Crimson Dragon puffed out his chest and said.

"Red Dragon?" Shi Shuai and Qian Duoduo were immediately shocked. Who was Red Dragon? He was the number one person in the Dragon Group besides Azure Dragon. Their family was even more shocked. As for the others, they had never heard of Red Dragon. Although the name sounded familiar, they couldn't remember him.

"Ignore him," Gu Yu said.

"Huh?" Everyone was stunned. A peak King Realm expert, they couldn't just ignore him!

"Little Fatty, I think you're quite pleasing to the eye. Is your combat unit short of people?" Chi Long asked Qian Duoduo at this moment. Chi Long thought that Qian Duoduo looked stupid and should be easy to fool.

"Little Fatty?" When Qian Duoduo heard Chi Long address him, his little eyes immediately showed displeasure, but he didn't dare to say anything, since this guy was at the peak of the King Realm!

"Is it lacking?" Qian Duoduo glanced at Gu Yu beside her and said in a very uncertain tone.

"Do you need someone to manage the money? I'm the best at managing money," Chi Long asked again.

"The one in charge of money?" Qian Duoduo was taken aback. Wasn't he the one in charge of money in the war department? This guy was trying to steal his job. "We don't need anyone to manage money."

"Not lacking?" Chi Long's eyes widened. "You're so fat, you're probably in charge of the money. Have you been embezzling quite a bit?"

"I didn't embezzle anything," Qian Duoduo said immediately upon hearing Chi Long's words.

“Brother, you have to believe me, this kid has definitely embezzled. If you put me in charge of the money, I will definitely not embezzle it,” Chi Long said to Gu Yu.

"Sigh!" Gu Yu sighed. This bastard is impossible to get rid of, he's like a dog skin plaster, so annoying.

"Brother, are you feeling unwell? My ancestors served the emperor and were skilled in massage. I've inherited their skills, so let me give you a massage." Chi Long appeared behind Gu Yu in a flash, and immediately began massaging Gu Yu's back with both hands.

Gu Yu was about to have an attack, but he suddenly felt quite comfortable.

"Did your ancestors really serve the emperor?" Gu Yu asked.

“Absolutely, my skills are superb.” Chi Long said, seeing the look of enjoyment on Gu Yu’s face.

"Those who serve the emperor are either eunuchs or palace maids? Were your ancestors male or female?" Gu Yu thought for a moment, feeling that something was amiss, and asked.

Upon hearing Gu Yu's question, everyone looked at each other, realizing it was indeed true!

"Palace maids, eunuchs?" Chi Long was stunned. Damn it, he tried to show off, but ended up getting himself into trouble.

In the Kingdom of the Wild Bull, within the capital city of the Wild Bull, stands a supreme mountain, shrouded in clouds and rich in primal energy.

At this moment, two old men stood on the mountaintop, their auras intentionally clashing.

“Manjun, do you know how great this blow is to us?” one old man asked, pointing to another.

"This is all inevitable. If we want to invade Earth, what is a little sacrifice?" Man Jun replied.

"What's a little sacrifice?" Another old man frowned, his face filled with anger.

"Eleven Emperor Realm experts, over eight million Minotaur race members, even the Black Bull Royal City was bombed, and a large high-grade Originium mine is gone. You say this is nothing?" the old man questioned through gritted teeth. "In my Minotaur world, there are only seven high-grade Originium mines left. Now that one is gone, there are only six. Four of them are already close to depletion. Do you know that without the supply of high-grade Originium, my Minotaur race will gradually decline?"

"Once we take over Earth and obtain the Source Heart, we can dominate all races, and all of this will be nothing," Man Jun said.

"How can you take over Earth? There are true gods and demigods on Earth. How can you take them over? The terrifying nature of their high-tech weapons has exceeded expectations." He continued to criticize.

“Their true god must be restrained, otherwise you and I would still be alive today,” Man Jun said with great certainty.

"Restrained? Who can restrain him? As far as we know, there is currently no source gate on Earth that possesses a true god. Even if the true god of Earth is restrained, it is by the true god of Earth, which proves that there are two true gods on Earth. Even if they are at odds, do you think they will still fight when it comes to life and death?" the old man continued.

"Ha Daohuang, do you mean to just wait? If we keep waiting, other powerful source gates will open in the future, and our enemies will no longer be humans, but other source gates. At that time, we will have even less chance. Now is the best opportunity," Man Jun said.

"Heh..." Ha Daohuang sneered, "You think now is the best time for Earth to potentially have two true gods? Man Jun, have you been wasting your life all these years?"

"Ha Daohuang, how dare you! Do you think I've let you get away with this all these years because I'm afraid of you?" Man Jun's voice suddenly turned cold.

"Then give it a try." A large Guan Dao suddenly appeared in Ha Dao Huang's hand, its blade covered with dense ancient inscriptions. "I want to see if a divine weapon can kill a demigod."

Seeing Ha Daohuang draw his great Guan Dao, Man Jun frowned. Over the years, there had been rumors that Ha Daohuang could fight him, and some even said that Ha Daohuang's cultivation had reached the demigod realm. But that wasn't true. It was because of the great Guan Daohuang in Ha Daohuang's hand, the Bull God Blade, which was a divine weapon, the only divine weapon of their Minotaur race. It was because of this divine weapon that Man Jun was so wary of Ha Daohuang.

With the Bull God Blade, Ha Daohuang's combat power is definitely not inferior to his. However, he is also unaware that the Bull God Blade has a flaw: it requires blood sacrifice. The blade must be consecrated with the master's blood to activate the power of the divine weapon. Even with Ha Daohuang's peak Emperor Realm cultivation, he would have to sacrifice half of his life to activate it.

Of course, Ha Daohuang would never tell Manjun this secret.

"Ha Daohuang, do you think a fight between us would help the Minotaur race?" Manjun relented. "It would only make things worse for the Minotaur race, and they might even fall apart. Is that what you want? I don't think so."

"Hmph!" Ha Daohuang snorted coldly, showing no intention of giving Man Jun any face.

Man Jun frowned. "Ha Dao Huang, I know you hold a grudge against me, but in the current situation, if we continue to fight, it will not benefit the Minotaur race at all."

"I think all the Emperor Realm experts on your side have died!" said Ha Daohuang.

"Ha Daohuang, I've already bowed to you, are you still going to be so aggressive? I've heard that the reason Black Bull Royal City was bombed was because of your Ha family, and the deaths of those Emperor Realm experts were also caused by this," Man Jun said. They had been investigating the cause of the Black Bull Royal City Origin Stone Mine explosion for the past few days. How could it have exploded out of nowhere? Moreover, if the Origin Stone Mine hadn't exploded, Black Bull Royal City wouldn't have exploded, and Hei Luo wouldn't have lost his composure and taken action. If he hadn't taken action, those Emperor Realm experts wouldn't have joined in, and they wouldn't have been killed by the human True God. You have to understand, that wasn't his plan. So the fuse for all of this was the bombing of Black Bull Royal City.

"Hmph! Even if my Ha family's genius was a King Realm expert, he couldn't possibly blow up the Originium Mine. Don't slander me. Speaking of which, my Ha family even lost a genius!" Ha Daohuang retorted, not wanting his family to take the blame. "I've also heard that it was a human who used an array to blow up the Originium Mine. I just don't understand, how did a human, supposedly a Second-Tier expert, manage to sneak into the Originium Mine? Are all the people in the Black Bull Kingdom useless? Or are you...?"

"Ha Daohuang, watch your words." Man Jun's face turned cold. He had also heard about it, and now he was also wondering if those guys from the Black Bull Kingdom were incompetent. If it were a Royal Realm cultivator, no, even a King Realm cultivator who had infiltrated, he wouldn't say anything! But the other party was only a Second Cone! "Could it be that he impersonated your Ha family's genius and infiltrated them? I heard that your Ha family's genius said that he captured a human woman, was severely injured, and caused his cultivation to drop to the Second Cone. And that day in Slaughter Bull City, there seemed to be a woman next to that human."

"Man Jun, you are talking nonsense. How could the genius of my Ha family be impersonated so easily? Even if the appearance changes, can the aura change?" Ha Daohuang said immediately. In fact, he was also suspicious, but he could not admit it. If he did, Man Jun would definitely seize on this matter and put him in a difficult position. He could not afford to lose the initiative.

“There are ways to change one’s aura. Humans even have true gods, so it’s not surprising that they have such secret methods,” Man Jun said.

"Hmph! I don't know anything else, I only know that this time, a genius of my Ha family has died," Ha Daohuang said immediately.

“Alright!” Man Jun glared at Ha Dao Huang. “The most urgent task is to find out the identity of that human. Such a person is too terrifying. If he were to infiltrate the capital of the Man Niu Kingdom and detonate the Originium Mine, it would be even worse. As for the Black Bull Royal City, the Hei family is no longer worthy of continuing to rule it.”

"Hmph!" Ha Daohuang snorted coldly again. "Your plan has failed. Now it's time to implement my plan, isn't it?"

“Yes,” Man Jun replied.

"I have contacted a large human family, and they are willing to cooperate with us," said Ha Daohuang.

"Is it reliable?" Man Jun asked. In fact, no matter how you look at it, he had failed this time. Even if Hei Luo didn't participate, Man Qi's plan would succeed later, and all the Emperor Realm experts would participate. The True God of the Human Race was probably waiting for this opportunity to wipe them all out. To put it bluntly, his plan failed from the beginning. He mistakenly thought that the True God of the Human Race could not take action, but the other party also knew about his plan and turned the tables on him.

However, Hei Luo's furious attack brought these events to a head and reduced human losses.

“Reliability is impossible; they’re just for exploitation,” said Ha Daohuang. “Give them benefits, and they’ll be used. But I’ll have them deal with that human who blew up Black Bull Royal City.”

"Yes!" Man Jun nodded.

"Also, shouldn't you give this giant source stone mine to our Ha family?" Ha Daohuang asked Man Jun. "Your Man family is full of mediocre people. In a hundred years, not a single person has been born into the Emperor Realm. It's a waste for you to keep occupying this giant high-grade source stone mine. My Ha family has quite a few peak King Realm experts who are close to breaking through."

“Sure, just send them over.” Man Jun nodded. “But keep a close eye on them. Don’t let any human spies infiltrate. If the giant high-grade source stone explodes, the Minotaur race will be truly finished.”

"Don't worry, I'm not one of those fools in Black Bull Royal City," said Ha Dao Huang. This old man was actually testing him. Even if human secret techniques were powerful enough to escape the eyes of a Royal Realm expert, could they really escape the eyes of Man Jun? You must know that Man Jun is a demigod, and this demigod has certain methods. Otherwise, he wouldn't dare to test a human true god. As for what methods he has, Ha Dao Huang can only guess.

Outside Tu Niu City, Gu Yu was directing dozens of people to set up a battle formation.

When Gu Yu obtained the God-Slaying Array Plate, he also gained Tongtian Daoren's insights into array formations. However, the amount of these insights was too vast, and he needed to digest them slowly. According to his estimate, it would probably take ten years to fully digest them.

Of course, this is much faster than him trying to comprehend the formation on his own. If he were to try to comprehend it on his own and reach the level of understanding that Tongtian Daoren gave him, it would probably take ten thousand years.

"The Heavenly Connection Technique," Gu Yu murmured, recalling the scene when the Tongtian Daoist used the Heavenly Connection Technique.

"Seeing through the eyes? Understanding through the mind?" Gu Yu murmured, then sat down cross-legged and began to comprehend.

Just as he was gaining insight, a sudden force swept over him, and by the time he realized it, he was already paralyzed on the ground, unable to move.

Then an old man appeared around him, but those who were arranging the source stones according to the blueprints did not notice the old man's sudden appearance. In their eyes, there was only Gu Yu there at the moment, cultivating.

The old man looked at Gu Yu and rubbed his hands together. "You kid, you definitely have more than 160,000 high-grade source stones. You don't need that many, and right now, what humanity lacks most is resources." The old man murmured. He was none other than Mo Shougui.

A demigod has actually resorted to petty theft. If word gets out, he will likely be condemned by the world.

But would others be able to detect it? At the very least, even if Li Shanpo were here, he wouldn't be able to detect it, because this person is a demigod.

"Strange, where did this kid put all the resources?" Mo Shougui's eyes, which had been excited, suddenly filled with doubt and confusion.

Although he had long suspected that something was amiss with Gu Yu's storage items, Mo Shougui thought that with his cultivation level, he could not possibly escape his notice if he got close enough to search. However, at this moment, he realized that he was wrong.
