As Shu Xu finished speaking, Jiang Si sighed and gave him a thumbs up, praising him succinctly, "You scumbag, you're such a scumbag!"

Jiang Dandan: "!!!!"

This isn't a jerk.

This is definitely a player.

She has money, looks, height, and long legs.

They can coax people, deceive people, and amuse people.

The key is that being with him will allow you to live a long life.

Tsk tsk, this guy can't be described as just a scumbag.

The word "scumbag" doesn't apply to him.

Yi Dan begged him to publish a book.

Shu Xubai crossed his legs, deliberately put his arms around himself, raised an eyebrow, and said in a cheeky tone, "You're welcome, thank you for the compliment. I'm a scumbag and I'm happy. Unlike some people who risk their lives and still get scumbaged or beaten up."

"No matter how many times he stabbed me or said those hurtful things, I will get my revenge tenfold. The noble and elegant vampire will eat anything, but he will never suffer a loss."

Ginger shreds: "!!!!"

Speaking is one thing, but is it really meaningful to keep making personal attacks like this?

Should I still be a cheap dad?

Can't we just be mortal enemies in a pleasant way anymore?

Do I have to piss her off so she'll stab me to death?

unlucky.

Jiang Dandan: "!!!!"

Auntie was stabbed, and none of Uncle Gou were innocent.

This generation of Uncle Dog is really no good.

Jiang Si grinned, revealing a fake smile: "My dear, elegant, beautiful, and noble vampire lord, my next destination is Earth. Are you sure you want to come with me?"

Shu Xubai paused in his leg-scratching motion: "Are you sure you want to go back to Earth?"

Jiang Si nodded: "I'm sure, I definitely want to take a tree back with me."

Jiang Si paused for a moment before recounting the story of the Spirit Eye and its companion spirits.

Upon hearing this, Shu Xubai continued to jerk his legs: "Fine, since you've decided, I'll go back with you. It's time to harvest the zombies we've been raising over there."

Jiang Dandan: "!!!!"

See? See? That's how wild the big shots are.

It's the tiny, pitiful creatures that are truly weak.

Jiang Si's lips twitched, and her tone changed abruptly: "You're coming back to Earth with me. I'm a dead entity in the Abel Galaxy. How are you going to let the little chick know that you're coming back to Earth with me?"

Shu Xubai gave Jiang Si a disdainful look, "Isn't this simple? Watch closely and learn what it means to truly play hard to get and what it means to truly captivate the entire audience."

Ginger shreds: "!!!!"

Jiang Dandan: "!!!!"

Little notebook, little stool, little brain are all ready, let's start writing.

After Shu Xubai finished speaking, he took out a spare quantum computer from his space, turned it on, made a voice call, and turned the voice call on speakerphone.

The call was answered after two rings.

A very respectful female voice came from the other end of the communication line: "Hello, Mr. Shu."

Shu Xubai sat in the cockpit of the aircraft, legs crossed, looking nonchalant, but when he spoke, he was serious and condescending: "Miss Chai, transfer all the cash assets in my account, the real estate I bought, and all my investments to your Great Witch Jiufeng!"

Ginger shreds: "!!!!"

Holy crap!

Is the old man ruthless or just plain ruthless?

This isn't just stabbing someone in the heart or lungs; this is a fatal blow.

Jiang Dandan: "!!!!"

Dad.

You've failed to learn it! You've failed to learn it! You've failed to learn it! I'll say it three times because it's important.

That's some serious Aquaman skills.

Not only are his scumbag quotes catchy, but his scumbag behavior is also cool.

What do you call this kind of behavior?

I cried out, "I love you, but I'm not good enough for you. You are the bright moon in the sky, and I am the mud on the ground. It doesn't matter if you don't love me; I will give you everything I have to show that I love you."

Compared to this scumbag playboy, Uncle Dog is utterly pathetic.

No wonder he's never even in the "wife-chasing crematorium" (a metaphor for a desperate attempt to win back a wife); he deserves it.

Jiang Si silently gave Shu Xubai a thumbs up, her eyes full of admiration.

Miss Chai on the other end of the call paused strangely for a long while before finding her voice: "Mr. Shu, let me confirm with you, did you mean to transfer all your assets, without leaving a single penny, to His Excellency the Great Witch Jiufeng?"

Shu Xubai's voice was deep and firm: "Yes, Miss Chai, transfer every single penny of all my assets to Da Wu Jiufeng."

“You issue a transfer document now, I will sign it online, and then you will give a paper list of all my assets to Lord Jiufeng for his signature.”

"Yes, Mr. Shu!" Miss Chai's voice trembled slightly.

Shu Xubai hummed in agreement: "That's all, goodbye..."

Ms. Chai called out through the screen, "Mr. Shu, please wait a moment."

As if he had already expected this, Shu Xubai raised an eyebrow and said, "What is it? Tell me!"

Miss Chai hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Mr. Shu, if I may be so bold as to ask, by transferring all the fixed assets and cash flow under your name to Lord Jiufeng, do you no longer intend to remain in the Fourth Civilization?"

Jiang Si was originally holding up one thumb, but now she's holding up two thumbs. If it weren't for her stomach making it inconvenient, she could take off her shoes and hold up both big toes as well.

Jiang Dandan: "!!!!"

This isn't just a scumbag, this is the ultimate player among players.

He can anticipate other people's predictions, and he can make others say what he says when he's talking to them. Awesome, incredibly awesome.

Applause is in order!

I'll definitely follow him from now on and learn all his essential skills.

Faced with Miss Chai's question, Shu Xubai sighed softly, "Money is just an external thing. I've transferred all my money to Lord Jiufeng, and I've decided to go and find the true meaning of life."

"I've recently come to realize that money isn't everything. What I should be doing now is tracing back to the origins of humanity and exploring our ancestors and past civilizations."

After listening to his words, Miss Chai followed up with a question: "You want to go to the ancient Earth in the Milky Way?"

Shu Xubai gave an ambiguous answer: "Maybe, anyway, we'll see where we go."

"Thank you so much, Miss Chai, for managing my finances these past few days. While you're sorting through my assets, please also settle your own salary. I appreciate your help these past few days."

Miss Chai hurriedly replied, "No trouble at all, it's my honor to work for Mr. Shu. If Mr. Shu comes back in the future, you can come to me again for financial matters."

"I wish Mr. Shu all his dreams come true and everything goes well."

Shu Xubai hummed in agreement. Before hanging up, he urged Miss Chai on time: "Thank you for your blessing, Miss Chai. I won't say anything more to you. Hurry up and organize my assets. I'll sign the transfer agreement online, and you should get the paper documents ready as well. His Excellency Jiufeng is in the Holy Temple now. Don't be late, or he'll be in seclusion and you won't be able to find him."

Ms. Chai: "Yes, I'll get right away."

Shu Xubai severed the optical computer.

Jiang Si gave him two thumbs up and said, "Old Bai, you're really cunning and shameless."

Shu Xubai chuckled slyly: "What's a face worth? What would I do with that thing? It's neither food nor drink."

"I'm a pragmatic person, the kind who won't do anything without a reason. You big villain, if you don't let me have an easy time, then nobody will have an easy time either. Do you think I'm like you, sneaking off with a baby in my belly!"

"Pshaw, if I were you, I'd get pregnant and cause a huge scene. I'd tell everyone I'm pregnant, then run away, let them worry about me all the time, but they can't catch me. It's all just for fun!"

Ginger shreds: "..."

This is just ridiculous.

They not only launched personal attacks but also looked down on people.

Is it still worth keeping such a mortal enemy?

Whoever wants it can have it; she doesn't want it anymore.

Jiang Dandan: "!!!!"

The elegant and handsome Sea King is right. You can't afford to be taken advantage of, and you can't be a dog. You have to learn to confront things head-on, and only run away after you've confronted them. That way, you can leave a brilliant mark on the world.

Wonderful, absolutely wonderful.

Ten minutes after Shu Xubai and Jiang Si left, the reconnaissance aircraft sent by the Fourth Civilization appeared. They saw the Great Witch Jiufeng standing in the huge worship site, looking up at the sky.

They slid down quickly, landed, ran to him, knelt on one knee, and respectfully asked, "Great Shaman, are you alright?"

Jiufeng's face was pale, the blood at the corner of his mouth had been wiped away, and his hair was slightly disheveled, but he was wearing a white robe that was blown by the sea breeze, making him look like a god: "I am fine. The temple collapsed, the holy mountain crumbled, and all 18 elders of the Phoenix Clan perished."

The person kneeling on the ground trembled, and after a long while, he responded with a "Yes," and then asked, "Great Shaman, in order to prevent the temple from collapsing a second time, we will escort you away."

Jiufeng raised her hand slightly: "Don't worry about me. Go and search for any survivors. Also, report to the higher-ups and inform the public that all 18 elders of the Phoenix Clan have perished."

The person kneeling on the ground: "Yes!"

Not long after, the official website of the Fourth Civilization released photos of the collapsed temple and Nine Phoenixes online, informing the public: "The temple collapsed, and all 18 elders of the Phoenix Clan perished. Great Witch Nine Phoenixes survived and is currently performing a ritual to guide the 18 elders to the afterlife in the temple!"

Upon hearing this news, the Fourth Civilization's network turned black, and the general public commented: "I don't believe it, I don't believe it! All 18 elders have perished! My God, I just went to pay homage the day before yesterday, and one of the elders even touched my head and blessed me."

"Eighteen elders! They were the longest-lived people in our Fourth Civilization, their combined age was several thousand, even tens of thousands of years, and they perished just like that!"

"The Great Shaman's face is so pale, and he seems to have lost weight. Good heavens, he must be the most heartbroken person. The 18 elders are the people closest to him."

"This damn earthquake, this damn tsunami, this damn landslide, how did it happen that 18 elders were killed? Sigh."

While the people of the Fourth Civilization expressed their condolences and sorrow, other countries were also paying attention to the matter. The Fourth Civilization's official website had already issued a statement, and netizens from other countries went viral on the intergalactic network.

Zerg netizens commented: "18 elders. I heard that these elders had an average lifespan of 300 years, and the oldest was almost 500 years old. They all perished and their bodies were never found. I wonder what they tasted like. What a pity."

A Mermaid netizen commented: "Hey upstairs, stop worrying about how it tastes. Be mindful of the galactic impact. We still need to do this kind of formality of mourning."

A user from the Troia Empire commented: "So, even those closest to God are vulnerable in the face of natural disasters. So, is this a case of man's plans being no match for God's?"

A member of the Orc race commented: "The feast has started! The feast has started! What are you talking about here? Hurry up and leave, or you won't be able to get a table."

The sky stretched to the horizon, the sea was a deep blue, and the temple was divided in two, with the sea churning in the abyss between them, its depths unfathomable.

The reconnaissance team and search party searched the ruins thoroughly, but they didn't find any blood, let alone any people. There was nothing there. The 18 elders and the people guarding the temple had vanished without a trace, not even a hair could be found.

Shu Xubai and Jiang Si boarded the spaceship, and the spaceship door slowly closed. At the same time, Miss Chai piloted the spacecraft to the sky above the temple.

The reconnaissance plane and search team conducted a routine check on her, learned that she was looking for a high priest, and, after confirming that she was not carrying any dangerous items, released her.

Ms. Chai is Shu Xubai's Chief Financial Officer and manager.

Jiufeng recognized her, but he didn't know why she had come to see him.

Miss Chai approached Jiu Feng and respectfully pulled out a stack of paper financial transfer documents, saying, "Your Excellency Jiu Feng, hello, I am Mr. Shu's financial officer and manager."

"Two hours ago, Mr. Shu entrusted me to transfer all his assets to your name. This is the transfer document. Please take a look, sign it, and all of Mr. Shu's assets will be yours!"

A stack of paper transfer documents was handed to Jiufeng. Jiufeng's hands felt as if they weighed a thousand pounds and she couldn't lift them. Her eyes fell on the stack of transfer documents, and her pale lips trembled: "Shu Xubai asked you to give these to me?"

Miss Chai was slightly puzzled. Hadn't she explained things clearly enough?

Oh, perhaps His Highness Jiufeng didn't hear clearly.

Miss Chai said solemnly, "Yes, Your Excellency Jiufeng, Mr. Shu asked me two hours ago to transfer all his assets to you!"

"The specific reason seems to be that Mr. Shu is going to the ancient Earth in the Milky Way to explore the true meaning of life and trace its origins, so he is transferring all his assets to you. Please sign here."

Ancient Earth in the Milky Way?

Ancient Earth in the Milky Way!

The birthplace of the Vampire legend.

Jiufeng finally had the strength to reach out and hug the transfer financial document that Miss Chai handed over.

As Miss Chai removed the pen cap and was about to hand it over, she saw Mr. Jiufeng and tears fell onto the transfer of financial documents.

Her grip on the pen tightened; she didn't dare reach out or move.

unexpectedly!

Jiufeng squatted down, clutching the financial transfer document. Her eyes were red, and she bit her lip, crying silently. Tears streamed down her face like beads.

The image of him crying was captured by the search and rescue team's photographer.

Under the sunlight, the great shaman, dressed in a white robe and with a handsome face like a banished immortal, was pale, his lips trembling, his nose red, his eyes red, and tears falling like beads.

The photo is both beautiful and sad. The official account of the Fourth Civilization posted the photo and wrote: "18 elders of the Phoenix Clan perished. The Great Witch Jiufeng was so grief-stricken that she wished she could suffer in their place."

When netizens from the Fourth Civilization saw this photo, they exclaimed, "Great Shaman, Great Shaman, don't cry! Your crying breaks my heart. It's so heartbreaking."

"Yes, yes, it's so heartbreaking. It's not your fault that 18 elders perished. You must pull yourself together, Great Shaman!"

As the ship left the planet of the Fourth Civilization and entered the vast universe, Jiang Si, who was constantly monitoring the online situation, saw the photo of Jiu Feng and rushed to Shu Xubai's side: "Old Bai, Old Bai, look, look!"

Shu Xubai didn't even glance at her, his gaze fixed on Agares. He grabbed Jiang Si's waist and pulled her close, his expression as cold as a knife: "What are you looking at? You choose first, do you want your worthless ex-husband or me!"
