“Gentle, learned, refined, and a very loving father to his daughter,” Zaun recalled when he first met Aragorn. “Otherwise, he could not have raised you to be so adorable.”
Isabella blushed slightly: "He's not that good either. Sometimes he can be quite fierce."
She was very happy that her elder brother had such a good impression of her father.
Seemingly worried that he would see through her thoughts, she dared not dwell on her father's question any longer and hurriedly continued, "The Fourth Elder's name is Mostima, also known as the Golden Desire."
Zuan was somewhat surprised: "Huh, this nickname isn't exactly a nice thing to say."
Isabella hesitated for a moment: "The Fourth Elder does have a bad reputation. He is greedy, cunning, and has one thing in common with you: he is extremely lecherous, has many wives and concubines, and has had many children. He can't even remember the names of many of his children."
Zuan: "..."
I never expected the war to spread to my own territory.
Isabella realized what he meant and became a little embarrassed: "But he's ugly and fat, and those women obviously weren't after him for love, so he doesn't give off a good impression like Brother Zu."
“You might as well not explain,” Zuan said, laughing and crying at the same time. “Actually, this is normal. As one of the seven elders of the Universal Chamber of Commerce, there must be countless women who want to throw themselves at him. Only a very few are as devoted as the Second Elder.”
“That’s true. Apart from the Second Elder, all the other elders have many wives and concubines. Even my father, who loved my mother so much, married many other women.” Isabella’s expression darkened.
Zu An felt increasingly guilty and hurriedly asked, "Where is the Fifth Elder?"
Hearing him mention the Fifth Elder, a hint of displeasure flashed across Isabella's face: "The Fifth Elder, Lilith, is somewhat eccentric and often acts in ways that defy expectations. Everyone says she's a madwoman, but I know she's not; it's just her personality."
“Like the Fourth Elder, she is also extremely lustful and has kept countless male lovers.” At this point, she suddenly became nervous. “Brother Zu, you must not be seduced by her. This woman is ruthless and heartless.”
Zuan chuckled: "In your heart, am I the kind of person who likes every woman I see? Don't worry, I have high standards. I only like kind and pure girls."
Feeling the intense gaze fixed on her, Isabella lowered her head somewhat embarrassed, her voice becoming a few decibels: "The Sixth Elder's name is Naraku. His first impression is that he is gloomy and lifeless. Even robots have more emotions than him. I am a little afraid every time I see him."
Zuan was taken aback: "Could he be a follower of Chaos?"
Isabella shook her head slightly: "It shouldn't be. The feeling he gave me was completely different from that of Sister Tingxue back then. Moreover, our Universal Chamber of Commerce as a whole are believers in order, and some people believe in protection, but it is unlikely that a true god's path with such a different style would appear."
Upon hearing her mention Tingxue, Zu'an felt a pang of sadness. She was most likely Yan Xuehen. He wondered what had happened to her and why she had lost her memory.
Unfortunately, Tingxue is extremely mysterious, appearing and disappearing without a trace, and now there's nowhere to find her.
Isabella, being perceptive, comforted him, saying, "Brother Zu, are you thinking about Sister Tingxue? Don't worry, with Sister Tingxue's strength, she will surely turn misfortune into good fortune. She will come to find us after she finishes dealing with her affairs."
"Bella, you're so thoughtful." Zaun thought to himself, it was truly remarkable that she hadn't developed that arrogant and domineering personality given her background.
"I'm just saying what I think," Isabella said, her face flushing slightly as she heard the other person call her by her nickname affectionately, but she was extremely pleased.
She cleared her throat and continued her introduction: "Seventh Elder Victor is extremely rational and calm, even to the point of being ruthless. He is in charge of adjudicating various contracts and agreements of the Chamber of Commerce, and this impartiality has earned him the trust of everyone."
Zaun then inquired about some details regarding the seven elders, and Isabella did not hide anything from him, telling him everything.
In addition, the two talked about what had happened since they parted ways. Zuan listened to the girl's thoughts, and Isabella also learned about the arrival of the temple in the cultivation world and the disappearance of his confidantes.
“Father seems quite worried lately. Perhaps something big is really happening in all the worlds,” Isabella said subconsciously, then comforted him, “Brother Zu, you don’t need to worry too much. The gods descending to the temple often happens in other worlds. It’s mainly to spread the glory of the true gods and expand the number of believers. Your friends will undergo a complete transformation in strength after passing the trials.”
"That's all we can hope for."
"By the way, Brother Zu, has Sister Chu Yan been rescued? I wonder if Father's card was of any use."
Zuan looked at him strangely, thinking to himself, "Didn't you just see it with your own eyes?"
The little girl was clearly curious about her identity, but she used this indirect method to find out, which was quite cute.
"They've been saved. I have to thank Uncle and Bella."
Seeing the playful look in his eyes, Isabella's heart pounded. Oh dear, her little scheme had been seen through by Brother Zu.
"Brother Zu, you're too kind. My father seems to be looking for me, so I'll hang up now."
After saying that, he hurriedly ended the call.
Zu An suddenly had a thought, got up and went to the door, where he found Chu Chuyan standing outside. Her originally icy face was now as beautiful as the sunset.
"It's all your fault, I'm so embarrassed."
"Don't worry, Bella is a kind girl, she won't go around telling everyone."
"Is this nonsense? How am I supposed to face her after this?"
"She thoughtfully didn't mention it, so let's just keep this tacit understanding."
"I'm going crazy."
...
The starship traversed the void. Zuan originally wanted to discuss with Mi Li about rebuilding her physical body, but the other party never appeared.
He secretly lamented that Mi Li was sleeping for longer and longer periods of time, wondering what had happened to cause this.
The rest of the time was spent studying cultivation with Chu Chuyan. Originally, he wanted her to borrow the power of a certain true god so that she could improve her strength as soon as possible.
To his surprise, however, she was unable to develop an affinity with these known paths of true gods; in other words, these paths rejected her.
Chu Chuyan didn't have much of an emotional reaction. After all, she had cultivated for so many years and didn't know about the existence of true gods before. All her skills were earned through her own cultivation, and she could rely on herself to continue in the future.
Zuan fell into deep thought. Could it be that Manman and the others were also like this, unable to walk the path of the true god, and thus researching their own path? But where did they go?
Time flew by, and the two who were meditating suddenly received a reminder from Aphrodite that they had arrived at the Sea of Contracts.
The two woke up and walked to the bridge. Looking out the window at the streaks of golden light, they realized that a huge galaxy stretched across the distance.
Countless gold coins flow through the Milky Way.
The two had seen their fair share of wealth, but they were still shocked by the sight of the tycoon before them; the Global Chamber of Commerce was simply too rich.
