"Brother Zu, what's wrong?" The two women had obviously noticed that he looked a little strange. Chu Chuyan was still able to sit still, but Isabella couldn't help but be curious.

Zuan blushed; he was too embarrassed to tell them this title, so he gave a vague explanation and changed the subject.

After chatting for a while, Chu Chuyan suddenly stood up and said, "I'm going back to the next room to cultivate. I have some insights from the Order Ceremony that I need to refine. You guys continue chatting."

"Ah," Isabella blushed deeply and hurriedly stood up, saying, "It's getting late, I should go back now."

Chu Chuyan quickly stopped her: "Please don't, it'll make it seem like I'm kicking you out. You two can continue chatting, you're not strangers."

Seeing the other person leave, Isabella felt a little uneasy. How could she not see that the other person was deliberately creating an opportunity for the two of them to be alone?

But this is the Universal Chamber of Commerce after all. So many people saw her come to Zu'an's room. It was already late at night. If Chu Chuyan left and she didn't leave, what kind of behavior would that be?

But after being separated for so many years during the Order Ceremony, and because of their opposing identities, they could hardly meet. Now that they have finally reunited, she has so much to say to her lover.

She shifted her feet, but ultimately did not leave.

Zuan noticed her unease and couldn't help but laugh, "What, would I eat people?"

Isabella couldn't help but pout and say, "Brother Zu, you're making fun of me!"

Zaun sighed, "I am so glad that the decades of suffering in the Order of the Great Scripture did not extinguish your pure heart."

"Ha, do you think I've become an old woman after living in there for decades?" Isabella stomped her foot.

"Who is Bella? You are the young lady of the most prestigious Universal Merchant Guild in all the worlds. What haven't you seen? How could you change your mind just because you spent a few decades in a secret realm?" Zuan couldn't help but pinch her cheek. Her sweet and natural "ha" was something that Lilith couldn't achieve even with all her flirtatious charm.

Isabella was a little embarrassed by his praise: "This time is really different from before. If it weren't for you, I really might not have been able to persevere."

Last time in the Dreamland, she was also in dire straits, but that was a feeling of her own lack of skill. This time, however, it was a truly earth-shattering sense of despair. One by one, familiar elders and friends around her had either fallen or betrayed her. She didn't even know who to trust anymore.

When she learned that Zaun had also surrendered to the Extinction faction, she felt utterly devastated.

However, once she calmed down, she ultimately chose to believe that he must have had his reasons.

Although the two of them spent the least amount of time together, far less than those uncles and elders, she didn't know why, but in that world, if there was one person she could trust in the end, that person would definitely be him.

Even when the last resistance force of the Order faction was destroyed, she persisted because the other side gave her one last glimmer of hope.

In the end, the other party did not betray her trust. When she finally learned everything, she was so excited that she jumped up.

“You are very strong. When I saw how weak and helpless you were, I couldn’t explain everything to you. I was really worried that you wouldn’t be able to hold on.” Zuan gently held her hand.

Isabella trembled slightly, wondering if Brother Zu would... should she refuse?

Although she had long considered herself his, the two had not officially married, and this was happening in her home, with so many familiar faces watching...

But the thought that the two of them might have to separate again soon made her reluctant to refuse.

My heart was pounding, and I didn't know what to do.

Suddenly she remembered something, as if she had found a savior, and hurriedly took something out of the small bag at her waist: "By the way, Brother Zu, he has found the thing you asked my father to find for you."

As she took it out, the originally small porcelain bottle suddenly turned into a large jar.

Zuan was startled: "What's this?"

Isabella's face flushed, and she quickly banished the rosy thoughts in her mind: "This is the Jade Essence of the Illusion. My father collected all of it from the Merchant Guild. I don't know if it's enough. If it's not enough, I'll ask my father to go find some more."

Zuan opened the lid and saw the milky white, translucent substance inside, like liquefied jade. A familiar, fragrant energy wafted out, and he was overjoyed: "It really is Chanwei Jade Marrow, that's enough, that's enough!"

As expected of the Global Chamber of Commerce, I had gone through so much trouble to find only a small bottle, but they were able to find a whole jar.

This amount is definitely enough to reshape Mi Li's figure. Before, the amount was only enough to make a little loli, but now she can customize any cup she wants—unless she wants to make an eight-foot-tall lady.

Seeing his surprise, Isabella breathed a sigh of relief. She knew that her elder brother had some criticisms of their father, so she tried her best to ease the tension between them.

He continued, "Furthermore, Tianyi Water Merchant Guild doesn't have it, but Father has already found relevant information."

"Then I really have to thank you, Uncle!" Zaun did think that Aragorn was a bit cunning, and this time he took the opportunity to trick a large number of his former brothers—although they all had their own ulterior motives.

However, those who were harmed were all from the Order faction. Now that they have helped so much, any resentment can be resolved.

"The first water of heaven is the mother of all waters and the source of creation. It is said to be in the Taiyin Guixu." Isabella recalled what her father had told her. In fact, her father told her not to rush to say these things, but to use them as bargaining chips to keep him around for a while longer. But she did not want to use such methods, and moreover, she wanted to ease the tension between the two of them.
