Chapter 523 Post-War 1
After figuring it out, Zhong Cai turned around, ready to share her joy with Wu Shaogan.
Then he saw that his old man had taken out the mirror at some point.
Zhong Cai was a little curious, so she tiptoed over to take a look.
Wow, a malicious ranking list.
He had almost forgotten that he could use this thing to identify it!
Wu Shaogan noticed Zhong Cai's actions and subtly moved the mirror closer to her.
Zhong Cai looked over.
Very well, the top-ranked Poison Toad Ancestor's name is no longer listed.
That means they're completely dead—well, or at least no threat at all.
However, you should still remember to look in the mirror before going out in the future, and take all necessary precautions.
Otherwise... maybe we shouldn't come out this time. He can focus on his research, and Lao Wu can focus on improving his strength. Wouldn't that be better?
In any case, I've gone through all the necessary experiences in the past year or so, so it's only right that I go into seclusion to digest them...
Although Zhong Cai's expression was somewhat restrained due to the recent battle, Wu Shaogan still saw her as lively and vibrant.
Wu Shaogan smiled gently.
From now on, we'll look in the mirror every time we go out.
Zhong Caiyi was amused.
Old Wu understands me best!

With the war over, it's natural to clean up the mess.
The other level-nine warships activated their defenses to allow the other flying artifacts to leave, and the Zhong and Wu couple also activated the ancient city's defenses to allow those on this side to leave as well.
However, there were still patients on the ships and in the ancient city where the Dan Emperors were located, so they did not leave for the time being.
However, the ancient city was, after all, a treasure associated with Zhong and Wu. It was one thing during the great battle, but now that the war was over, it was best to move the patients to the few warships specifically used for treatment.
Among them were some who were seriously ill, dying, and unable to move on their own. Then, a cloud appeared from the sky, gently reaching under their bodies and lifting them up and carrying them away from their lying position.
Before long, the place became empty.
If Zhong Cai needs to continue rescuing people, he can go to the warship over there.
·
Wu Shaogan sensed it for a moment and said, "Everyone has already left..."
Before he could finish speaking, he saw Wu Dongxiao standing next to him with his arm raised high.
Wu Shaogan paused for a moment, then laughed and said, "Only this kid and his senior brother are left."
Xuan Bing had been teased before, but he remained calm.
Wu Dongxiao chuckled and said, "Isn't it because I was afraid Uncle Zhong and Uncle Xiao would forget about us?"
Zhong Cai casually patted his shoulder—she didn't even know when he had appeared there—and said with a grin, "I can't forget you. It wasn't easy to raise you to be so big and handsome, of course I can't forget you!"
Wu Dongxiao was in high spirits.
Xuan Bing watched the uncle teasing his nephew from the side and felt that the two looked very familiar—even though they didn't look alike, for some reason, certain details in their expressions were quite similar.
He sometimes felt that Dong Xiao looked like Wu Shidi's nephew, and the two junior brothers had been very lenient with him, but now that he's grown up... he felt that even if those two junior brothers had a child, it might not be as similar to them as Dong Xiao.
Wu Dongxiao still had a big smile on his face: "Now, are you two uncles leaving the ancient city? Then my senior brother and I will be going too!"
Zhong Cai patted him again and said with a smile, "Let's go, let's go."
Wu Xuan and his companion left quickly as expected.
After everyone left, Zhong Cai happily hung herself on Wu Shaogan.
Wu Shaogan picked him up and carried him on his back.
The two cuddled together intimately for a while.
There were always many people around, so even if they were close, they couldn't go too far.
Moreover, most of the time, they simply don't have time to be close. They're lucky if they can spare a moment to look at each other for comfort.

On those level nine ships, many cultivators in charge of logistics were sorting through the spoils of war.
During the great battle, after the righteous cultivators killed the evil cultivators, they immediately collected the bodies to prevent them from being used by other evil cultivators. When they needed to leave the battlefield to rest or heal, they would go to the large ship that was in charge of the spoils of war and hand over the corpses.
Generally speaking, cultivators can join a major battle in several ways.
The disciples of the Lingxian Sect and the War God Hall had established a rule long before they came out: of all the resources obtained from the corpses of enemies they killed, half were kept by the disciples themselves, while the other half would be converted into merit points, which were their battle merits—it was not possible to convert all of them into merit points.
Merit points have two uses: one is to exchange them for the resources you want on the Danwu Sky Screen, and the other is to pay for the supplies you get from the logistics department during the battle, such as healing medicine, medicine to restore Xuan power, antidote medicine, etc., to pay for the alchemists' treatment fees, etc.
If you are not a disciple of either of these two families, but an outsider participating in the war, you can choose for yourself.
First, they don't participate in the distribution of battle merits; they simply come along and are protected by the two righteous cultivators. All the resources from the evil cultivators they kill belong to them. At the same time, they don't have their merit points recorded, and they cannot request supplies from either faction during the battle.
Secondly, if they participate in the distribution, then the rules are the same as those for the disciples of the two factions. The only difference is that the disciples of the two factions exchange resources from the Danwu Heavenly Curtain, while the cultivators outside can see a very long exchange list after the battle, which includes resources from level one to level nine, and they can exchange them using merit points.
Cultivators carry recording stones to prove their battle achievements—but these are usually used as supplements. In actual battles, there are treasures specifically designed to monitor the battlefield and record battle achievements.
It almost never makes a mistake.
Those cultivators who do not participate in combat, such as logistics personnel and alchemists, also have their own methods for measuring combat merits. The former are judged by how many pills and talismans they can expedite, how long they stay in charge, and their recording and monitoring... In short, different tasks are rewarded with merit points; the latter are related to the number, grade, and type of pills they refine.
·
Each time a large number of cultivators handed over the corpses of evil cultivators, the logistics personnel would immediately and accurately record the battle achievements.
The resources of the heretics are naturally stored in mustard seed rings, but as long as they can hide them, they will not expose them. They may even directly store the mustard seed rings into their flesh... And once they build a palace, there is a 99% chance that they will store all the resources in their palace.
In addition, some evil cultivators extract their primordial souls after death, which can be obliterated, leaving only their accompanying treasures—which can also be considered spoils of war.
The logistics personnel were extremely careful and meticulous when sorting through the resources of a heretic, leaving no stone unturned. They would even have a specialist take the corpse to the incinerator after collecting a rough estimate. If there were any tiny bits left after the incineration, they would take them out and continue to count and tally them.
At the same time, because some of the resources from the heretical path are usable, some can be processed and used, and some are simply a great scourge—which need to be destroyed—there will be some deliberation when allocating resources and recording battle achievements.
Because it was handled properly at the time and the items were categorized and put away neatly, when we reorganize them now, we mainly just need to check them again to make sure they match the records.
·
Not long after, a figure came over and invited them to board the level nine warship.
The reason is simple: we need to hold a meeting to distribute everyone's merit points.
In addition, a list of the exchanges must also be provided.
Zhong and Wu were both on the same side, but they didn't really calculate their merit points.
They will definitely attend the meeting between the two factions.
·
Zhong Cai responded to the disciple who was delivering the message.
The disciple who delivered the message then went to other flying artifacts to look for the person.
Zhong Cai held Wu Shaogan's hand, a thought flickering in her mind.
In the next instant, the vast ancient city vanished.
With another wave of his hand, Zhong Cai summoned a giant bird that suddenly appeared beneath the two of them.
It was Qingyu.
·
Qingyu and Qinghui also participated in the battle.
But as time went on, the battle became more and more intense. The roc and the wolf were caught in the crossfire and were injured several times. When the scattered poisonous fog became unbearable for them, they had no choice but to return and then stayed in their own dwelling to heal their wounds.
Of course, they will rush out whenever they can participate in the battle.
After the Battle of Tongtian, Qingyu and Qinghui both became well-behaved.
When preparing for the return journey, Qingyu, who can fly, is always on standby.
Qingyu let out a cheerful chirp.
In a place unheard by others, deep within the inner city of the ancient city, Qinghui responded with a wolf howl.
Clearly, despite the extreme danger on the battlefield, with Qingyu and Qinghui both suffering serious injuries and near death several times, rare beasts still enjoy fighting outside.
This time, they felt very good too.
·
At this moment, Zhong Cai and Wu Shaogan sat cross-legged on Qingyu's back.
It spread its blue wings and took flight.
It was heading towards the most central and important ninth-class warship.
·
The level nine warship has now grown to an extremely terrifying size, and its deck is also extremely spacious.
Before long, under Ji Zhan's manipulation, it actually turned into a large, suspended plaza.
It has many seats and a very spacious open area.
Pei Xiaoling and Ji Zhan were in the very center.
After the Zhong and Wu couple arrived, they were led to a more forward-facing area.
The other cultivators also took their seats.
The Lingxian Sect and the War God Hall have mixed seating arrangements; whoever is familiar with whom can sit together.
Many of the other cultivators who volunteered have arrived, but many others are still undergoing treatment and will not participate for the time being.
Before long, everyone who could come arrived.
However, the casualties on the battlefield were heavy. Although the cost was much less than that of the evil path, the evil path was not something to be taken lightly.
Currently, many sects can only send a few representatives.
Many rogue cultivators have also perished. As long as they were able to go out to the battlefield at least once to register, their battle merits would have been recorded. However, now it seems there is no one to claim them.
