“Little fatso, I’ve noticed that you have absolutely no respect for your uncle.”
As soon as they met, Hong Huohuo started complaining. He was having a great time at the Heaven and Earth Monster Park, where the lizard sister and crocodile sister were so cute. It was the perfect time to bond with them, but then the little black fat guy called him here with just one sentence.
Su Qing stared at him, her dark golden dragon eyes gradually narrowing, her expression growing increasingly hostile.
Hong Huohuo looked at Su Qing in front of him, then at himself, and after weighing the options, decisively admitted defeat.
"Haha, just kidding. By the way, the thing you asked me to bring, lord, is here!"
Hong Huohuo gave a dry laugh and quickly changed the subject.
He had no doubt that his nephew would hit him, his uncle.
All he wanted to do now was put his things down and hurry back to the Warcraft Park to discuss life with his lizard sister and crocodile sister.
Su Qing ignored him and carefully examined the two glass statues. After confirming that they were not damaged, she nodded in satisfaction.
After having someone carefully pack it up, Su Qing looked at Hong Huohuo, who was preparing to return home.
The dark golden dragon's eyes blinked, somewhat puzzled: "What are you going to do?"
Hong Huohuo was even more puzzled: "Go back! I've already delivered the things!"
Su Qing was speechless: "Since you're already here, why are you in such a hurry to go back? Come with me!"
He had Hong Huohuo carry a glass statue that had already been wrapped up, and before dawn, they crossed the streets and alleys to the residence of the temple priest.
After being informed, Su Qinghong and Huo Huo entered the courtyard.
A strangely dressed temple priest and his white lion are praying to a statue half the height of a person.
Su Qing did not disturb them, and quietly waited for the other party to finish praying before stepping forward with a smile and performing a somewhat informal religious gesture.
The old priest was very gentle, even though he was afraid he was facing a black dragon, and he showed an attitude of equality.
"Dragon Lord, what brings you here so early?"
He spoke in a gentle voice, his eyes half-closed, like a kind old man.
Compared to the priest with his gentle and kind smile, Su Qing's smile was even brighter: "There is something I would like to ask the priest to appraise for me."
As he spoke, he waved his hand, signaling for Hong Huohuo to bring the things over.
Only then did the red dragon realize that the little black fat man had been treating it like a laborer!
With his bloodshot, dead-fish eyes, he glanced sideways at Su Qing and carefully put down the exquisite gift box he was holding.
Who is this?
The priest then noticed Hong Huohuo, a strange light flashing in his eyes.
I never expected there would be a second dragon!
"A nobody, you don't need to worry about him."
Su Qing said it didn't matter, but Hong Huohuo felt a surge of frustration.
Although I'm not your uncle and I can't beat you, I'm still your elder. This is extremely disrespectful to the dragon.
Hong Huohuo made a decision: once he returned to Dragon Island, he would go and complain to the Black Dragon Clan.
Let someone teach this little fat black guy a lesson.
Seeing that Su Qing was unwilling to say more, the priest chuckled and didn't ask any more questions. His gaze fell on the gift box, and he couldn't help but be curious about this huge thing.
As the rope was untied, sunlight streamed in, and the reflected light caused the old priest's squinting eyes to widen, his breathing becoming rapid involuntarily.
The exquisitely crafted glass statue is imposing, with half-closed eyes, one hand holding a sword and the other a shield...
"It is the God-King of War!"
The old priest's voice trembled slightly.
Compared to other materials, statues carved from transparent glass are undoubtedly more awe-inspiring at first glance.
Especially under Su Qing's deliberate control, glass is now more expensive than gold, belonging to the top luxury goods comparable to jewelry.
In the eyes of the old priest, such a glass statue was priceless.
In reality, Su Qing's material and labor costs combined amounted to only a dozen or so gold coins.
After a long while, the old priest calmed himself down, his eyes no longer gentle as before, but burning with rage: "Dragon Lord, what do you mean?"
Now that the statue had appeared before him, he was absolutely not going to let it go.
The temple enshrines many gods, but these gods are also ranked.
However, only the god of war was worshipped as the god-king in the temple, because he was the origin of the knight system.
If this glass statue were returned to the temple in the center of the continent, it would surely receive a reward and a blessing from the gods.
Thinking of this, the old priest's gaze became even more intense.
Noticing the undisguised desire in the old man's eyes, Su Qing smiled broadly: "What could I possibly mean? I just want the High Priest to take it back and give it a good look."
A flicker of interest crossed the old priest's face, but he didn't immediately agree. There's no such thing as a free lunch; the other party must have something in mind for giving him such a generous gift.
"Of course, I also want to discuss a business deal with the High Priest."
Su Qing finally revealed the purpose of her visit.
"The High Priest should also know that the dragon territory is small and poor, which limits its development, and it has been unable to afford precious resources for a long time."
Su Qing began to complain, while keeping an eye on the old priest's expression.
Upon noticing that the old man's complexion hadn't changed much, they immediately understood.
The temple was richer than he had imagined.
It tastes sour!
Su Qing chuckled, thinking, "How much wealth have those two parasites on the continent, the Temple and the Church, accumulated over thousands of years?"
"The Pure Land of the Gods, Magic Crystals, Elemental Crystals, Healing Water..."
Su Qing named many precious resources, but the old man only frowned.
The wealth and power they subtly displayed made Su Qing envious.
