Shi Yu's delicate eyebrows furrowed involuntarily.

She sat upright on the big dog, her eyes fixed on the Imperial Advisor.

[Gua66, don't you think this national advisor looks a bit familiar?]

Gua66: [I don't have eyes, I can't see it.]

However, I do feel that his aura is quite familiar.

Shi Yu: [Heh, Gua66, you noticed too, didn't you?]

Who is this person again? I feel like we've met before.

Have you seen it?

The Imperial Advisor's heart skipped a beat, and he instinctively took a large step back.

Who wants to know this Abyss Demon King?

He pulled up all the herbs in his entire herb garden just to experience what it's like to be vegetarian.

Hundreds of years have passed, and it still hasn't grown.

Waaaaah...

Damn it, why did they put him next to the Great Abyss Dragon?

And yesterday, he tricked her out of 10 jin, no, 11 jin of ginseng.

If he were to be tricked by her, he would have no way to survive in the future.

Li Hongzhao moved closer to Bailitu.

He whispered in his ear.

"Can you see that? The Imperial Advisor's body is trembling."

He was afraid of Yu Yu.

"It seems he knows it's wrong to lie to children, and now his conscience is bothering him."

The Imperial Advisor: God the hell, my conscience is condemned.

He was afraid of the formidable strength of the Abyss Demon Dragon.

Why……

The Imperial Advisor seemed to have suddenly grasped something.

How did the Great Abyss Dragon turn into a little baby?

A look of elation exploded in the eyes of the Imperial Advisor.

I guess I won't be as powerful when I become a little baby.

Does that mean he can hold out for a while longer?

The Imperial Advisor was delighted at the thought.

Hahaha……

It feels like life has returned to springtime.

The Imperial Advisor rose and slowly approached Shi Yu.

What is this old man trying to do now?

Shi Yu looked at him with a puzzled expression.

He looks shifty and I really want to punch him.

The Imperial Advisor's heart skipped a beat, but he continued forward.

"Young friend, this is all the money I have left. Here, I'll buy you some candy."

The imperial advisor, trying to curry favor, pulled out a large wad of silver notes.

All of them were large denomination banknotes of one thousand taels each.

"Huh? For me?" Shi Yu looked up at the Imperial Advisor in surprise.

My mother always taught me that creepy men would try to trick children with money and treats.

[Is this imperial advisor trying to deceive me?]

Shi Yu's face darkened, and she looked at the Imperial Advisor with great hostility.

[You wicked old man!]

The Imperial Advisor's hand trembled as he held the silver note.

Although the former abyssal demon dragon has now become a little baby, her body still retains the memory of her fear.

The Imperial Advisor's hand trembled slightly, but he still bravely moved forward.

"Your radishes were really delicious yesterday, this is a thank you fee."

"Ahhhhh..."

[A thank-you fee? You should have said so earlier!]

Shi Yu isn't afraid of weird uncles anymore!

The little hand quickly took all the old national advisor's silver notes and secretly stuffed them into Gua66's space.

"Ahhh..."

If you want to eat it, just let me know anytime.

I can sell it to you for a lower price.

After Shi Yu finished speaking, she raised her small hand, patted the big dog under her, and turned to leave.

Just as the Grand Preceptor was about to breathe a sigh of relief, he heard Shi Yu's cheerful, childlike voice.

[Hehehe, another day of making money. It's definitely more fun to be out and about.]

The Imperial Advisor might have some serious mental issues.

[For just two radishes, he actually pulled out a lot of silver notes, hahaha...]

Next time I'm broke, I'll sell radishes.

I'm sure I'll make a fortune, hehehe...

As Shi Yu's sweet voice faded into the distance, the Imperial Advisor secretly raised his sleeve to wipe the sweat from his forehead.

Oh my god, that scared him to death.

The Great Demon Dragon of the Abyss destroyed an entire city with a single breath.

Now that she's out, how can the evil spirits in the abyss still be suppressed?

However, this is not something he can control.

He is now just a mortal, only his consciousness is in this body.

He should just stick to being his imperial advisor, live a life of leisure and idleness until he's old and dead, and then worry about that later.

"Master, when did you become so generous?"

Li Hongzhao, out of curiosity, went to the Imperial Advisor's side.

A suspicious gaze swept over him, sizing him up and down.

The Imperial Advisor became even angrier when he saw his troublesome disciple.

"None of your business!"

Oh my, he saved up his retirement money for half his life, and then just gave it all to that dragon.

It would be a lie to say I'm not heartbroken.

But he couldn't defeat the dragon.

We couldn't beat them before, and we still can't beat them now.

What can we do then?

If you can't beat them, join them; maybe you'll suffer less.

The territory of the Great Gan Kingdom is not large compared to the surrounding countries, but it is certainly not small either.

Fortunately, when the Da Gan Kingdom was founded, in order to suppress the evil spirits in the surrounding area, it specially built the capital city near the dark fog in the north.

Over the years, and with the protection of sacred objects in the capital, it has always been quite safe.

Until recently, evil spirits have been appearing frequently.

The last time Li Hongzhao and Baili Tu went out, it was to check if there was any problem with the guardian pillar of the Daqian Kingdom.

Believe it or not, they actually found a problem last time.

The two nearly lost their lives trying to fix the vulnerability.

After traveling for half a month, the group finally arrived at the place Chen Hongtu had mentioned.
