Jiang Yuan stayed in the cell for half an hour, then walked out looking relaxed. An Xiaoyu, who was waiting outside, was filled with admiration.

"Alright, that's all!" Jiang Yuan placed the recording stone in An Xiaoyu's hand.

Although Fu Tian confessed, he didn't confess completely because he knew very little.

The first important piece of information was about the families within the Central Plains Safe Zone that were colluding with the Holy Spirit Clan. He only mentioned three families that were connected with the Array Spirit Clan. Of course, Jiang Yuan had no idea whether there were any more.

The second important piece of information was the inheritance of array formations. Jiang Yuan didn't care much about this, because the best array formation inheritance of the fallen Holy Spirit Clan was the Mysterious Array Manual, which he had already mastered. However, because he had promised Bu Yao not to pass it on, he hadn't mentioned it. But the inheritance that Fu Tian provided was also quite good, at least in terms of the Profound God Realm, it was already considered to be of excellent quality.

Finally, and most importantly, the strategic deployment of the Holy Spirit Clan is crucial to Huaxia's decision-making. Fu Tian didn't mention anything else, only the strategic deployment of the Big Dipper Divine Mountain. They will set up the Heavenly Evolution Array after the battlefield announcement to control the divine veins beneath the Central Plains of Huaxia.

In a sense, the divine veins are branches of the world veins. If they are slowly controlled by the Holy Spirit Clan, then the dragon veins of Central China will fall into the control of the Holy Spirit Clan. At that time, not only Central China, but the entire China will be threatened.

"Xiao Jiangjiang, you're amazing!" An Xiaoyu exclaimed excitedly, holding the recording stone.

"Oh, then how about a reward to treat me?" Jiang Yuan looked at An Xiaoyu with a smile.

An Xiaoyu smiled foolishly and said deliberately, "How about I treat you myself?"

Hearing these tempting words, Jiang Yuan gave a wry smile and said, "I don't want to die. With your current level, after I treat you to a meal, I will become a god. At that time, the heavenly tribulation will not let me off the hook!"

The Heavenly Demon Body's ability to replenish itself can even allow a demigod to break through to a true god. At this moment, it would be a piece of cake for him to break through to the god realm. However, he carries the curse of the god of death, and once he breaks through to the god realm, his fate will truly be unknown.

"Don't you men often say things like 'To die under a peony is to die a romantic death'? What, you're not willing to die for me?" An Xiaoyu wrapped her arms around Jiang Yuan's cheek, her breath gently caressing his face.

"Xiaoyu, there are cameras behind you. There might be a lot of high-ranking military officials watching us flirt right now!"

Jiang Yuan then put his arm around An Xiaoyu's waist, but one sentence from him made An Xiaoyu completely obedient.

"Cough cough!"

An Xiaoyu coughed awkwardly twice, then pretended to open her arms and get off Jiang Yuan, stretching as she said, "What? Can't I even put my arm on your shoulder when it's numb? Besides, what business is it of theirs if we're flirting? What do those old men know about young people's love lives!"

"Alright, go hand in the recording stone. We'll get ready and leave Dongcheng." Jiang Yuan has been in Dongcheng long enough, and because of the Holy Spirit Clan's invasion, he needs to go back and check if Liu Zhaodi is in any serious trouble.

“Sigh, the city lord was planning to host a banquet for you, but it looks like we’ll have to stand him up!” An Xiaoyu solemnly put away the recording stone and added, “Then why don’t you take a stroll around the East City? I can finish my work in about half an hour, and then I’ll go with you to watch the total solar eclipse.”

"good!"

Jiang Yuan left the prison cell and didn't waste the half hour. He first went to the Zhao family and sighed a lot after learning about the situation.

With the fall of the Zhao family patriarch and the critically injured death of another divine realm expert in the Zhao family, it can be said that from the death of Zhao Runnian to the fall of the Zhao family patriarch, the Zhao family lost almost all of its high-end combat power. And unsurprisingly, the Zhao family fell from a first-class family to a third-class family.

"Zhao Feng!"

Jiang Yuan walked into the Zhao family ancestral hall, where a funeral was being held. In this battle, the Zhao family not only lost many Divine Realm cultivators, but also suffered many casualties in the Heavenly Spirit Realm. Therefore, the Zhao family held a funeral for all of them.

Zhao Feng was in low spirits, but when he turned around and saw Jiang Yuan, he still gratefully called out, "Brother Qingmu."

If there's anything in this world that can make someone grow up overnight, it's undoubtedly the brutality of war and the death of loved ones. Zhao Feng has clearly experienced both, and he's completely different from the naive young man who only had revenge on his mind before.

The Zhao family defended their last shred of dignity with their blood. As traitors, these neutral faction members should have been punished as well, but the Zhao family patriarch and all members of the Zhao family sacrificed their lives to atone for their mistakes.

Jiang Yuan walked to the ancestral tablet of the Zhao family and bowed, then said, "The final result for your Zhao family has been reported by the higher authorities. Considering that only a portion of the Zhao family members were traitors, and that other innocent people have also proven their stance through their actions, the death penalty has been waived!"

"Thank you, Brother Qingmu!" Zhao Feng sincerely thanked him. He knew that being spared the death penalty was already a great act of magnanimity from the Heavenly Palace, because he had become a traitor during the war, and the outcome was predictable: he would be eliminated.

"However, you may be spared the death penalty, but you will not escape punishment. You will have to give up 70% of the assets under your Zhao family's name to the City Lord's Mansion." Jiang Yuan's tone did not change. In fact, he had no good feelings towards the Zhao family. It was already good enough that a family that could sell out the country and race for profit had not been wiped out.

Zhao Feng gave a wry smile and said, "Even if we don't give up 70% of our assets now, our Zhao family is powerless to protect them. We might as well give them to the City Lord's Mansion and at least be safe."

Zhao Feng was very open-minded. Although the Zhao family's assets had not changed, they had now become a third-rate family. Without the protection of a divine realm expert, their assets would be the best piece of meat to be easily devoured by other forces in the East City. It would be better to give the City Lord's Mansion a new protective charm.
