She then told them everything she had just heard, which shocked the two of them so much that they almost jumped up on the spot.

...

Meanwhile, Zuan dialed Yu Yanluo's video mirror, and soon a stunningly beautiful face appeared in the mirror.

"It's been so long, and you finally remembered to contact me?" Yu Yanluo, who had been sitting upright and thought it was the imperial court contacting her, smiled broadly when she saw her lover.

Zuan had no choice but to give a brief account of his recent bankruptcy in alchemy.

"Bankruptcy?" Yu Yanluo raised an eyebrow. "It seems I was right. Judging by the time, it should be coming soon."

"What, almost here?" Zu'an was taken aback.

"I guessed that you might be short of funds, so I sent someone to deliver some spirit stones to the capital. Judging by the time, they should arrive in a few days," Yu Yanluo said with a gentle smile.

Zuan: "..."

The Yu family was once the wealthiest family in the world, so how could the "little bit" she mentioned really be just a little bit?

He said with a complicated expression, "Looks like I really am cut out to be a kept man."

How many women have offered him resources now?

Yu Yanluo raised her beautiful eyebrows slightly: "Have any other women given you gifts?"

"No, who can compare to your immense wealth?" Zu'an dared not tell the truth and hurriedly changed the subject, feeling guilty. "By the way, can you mobilize the resources of the human race now?"

Yu Yanlu smiled and said, "Have you forgotten? Ever since your position in the court has risen and you've sent people here several times, a lot of the Yu family's previously seized assets have gradually returned. Although they're not as good as they were at their peak, they've almost recovered their strength."

Zu An breathed a sigh of relief: "I was worried that those people would be eyeing the jade mine and wouldn't be willing to let go."

“Who would dare offend you now, my Regent?” Yu Yanluo’s expression showed a hint of amazement. “I never imagined that you would be the Regent of both the demon race and the human race at the same time. In addition, you were able to kill even the Earth Immortal in the capital. Now that you are at the height of your power, who would dare to be disrespectful at this time?”

Zuan was taken aback: "Even you received the news?"

Yu Yanlu shook her head slightly: "Others are naturally not that fast, it's just that they have been deliberately collecting all the information about you."

Zuan felt a warmth in his heart: "Yanluo..."

Yu Yanluo opened her mouth, and finally whispered, "I missed you..."

Zu'an felt incredibly excited and wanted to rush to her side immediately, but he quickly calmed down: "If it were before, I would definitely come to find you right away, but something big has happened, and I'm here to inform you..."

He then told her about the invasion of otherworldly demons.

Yu Yanluo's expression changed: "Is this world ultimately going to be destroyed?"

Zuan laughed and said, "Don't worry, I'll handle it!"

Yu Yanluo's eyes were full of worry: "Then you must be careful! I will come back to see you after I have completely settled the people here."

"It's going to be hard for those demons to hurt me now. You need to be careful, and also remind the people around you," Zu'an instructed.

"Don't worry, I am Queen Medusa, and the personal disciple of the High Priest. I'm not so easy to deal with," Yu Yanluo gradually regained her composure. "By the way, Qing'er and Bai'er seem to still have feelings for you. They often come to inquire about you. Did you do something to them?"

"What can I do to them?" Zuan's heart stirred, and he recalled the snake clan's unique tenderness that night.

...

Meanwhile, at the same time, in a secret villa of an embroidered envoy, a man in black was looking up and down at the tall woman in front of him, clicking his tongue in amazement: "What long legs, I'm so envious."

Zhang Zitong did not answer. She glanced at the fallen guards around her and then stared warily at the man in black in front of her.

"Don't worry, I just knocked them out, I didn't take their lives. I didn't expect you to actually consider these people as colleagues."

Zhang Zitong finally breathed a slight sigh of relief. After the failure of the Yi County affair, she was imprisoned here by the Eleventh Lord. He neither killed her nor released her. She had been staying in the courtyard all day without trying to escape until this guy broke in.

She scoffed, "What do you want from me?"

"I need you to do something for me," the man in black said in a low voice.

"Why should I help you? We're even now," Zhang Zitong sneered.

"No, you will go, because that person will go too..." The man in black slowly said something, and Zhang Zitong's expression changed.
