"Wow~, I originally thought that my eldest nephew was powerful enough, but I didn't expect that your ancestor was even more fertile. All the people in this entire ancient Jiang domain are from your Jiang family? How many people are there?" Chen Siqi marveled.
"My Jiang family has existed in the world for who knows how many trillions of years. It's normal for there to be more people after so many years of reproduction and development." Jiang Yuer explained helplessly.
Chen Siqi agreed when she heard it. Li Mu's son Li Yunqing had hundreds of billions of descendants in just a thousand years. It was not surprising that a family like the Jiang family, which has existed for trillions of years, had so many people.
"Hehe, then you are very outstanding. You can stand out among so many descendants of the Jiang family." Chen Siqi said with a smile.
Jiang Yuer smiled bitterly and said, "So what if I stand out? I can't even control my own destiny. If I had known this, I would rather be an unknown marginal person in the Jiang family."
"Uh... don't be so pessimistic. Aren't we here to solve the problem?" Chen Siqi patted Jiang Yuer's shoulder and comforted her. "By the way, should we go to your mansion first, or...?"
Jiang Yuer sighed and said, "Let's go meet the ancestor first. I won't be at peace until I meet the ancestor and ask him clearly."
"Hey~! Actually, in my opinion, we should go to your mansion first and take that... uh... you know, thing, and then go to see your ancestor. In case the talks between you and your ancestor fail, it won't be a wasted trip for us, right?" Chen Siqi suggested calmly.
As soon as these words were spoken, Li Mu, Jiang Yuer, and Liu Yuanbai all looked at Chen Siqi with strange eyes at the same time. It was already this time, and she was still thinking about those trivial things. This was definitely rubbing salt into Jiang Yuer's wounds!
"Why are you looking at me like that? I'm being rational. After all, the man from the Ji family just said that the ancestor of the Jiang family has no objection to the Ji family's request. No matter whether what he said is true or false, we have to prepare for the worst, right? Even if we run away, we can't run away empty-handed!" Chen Siqi said as if it was a matter of course.
"Things have to be prioritized..." Before Li Mu could finish his words, Jiang Yuer interrupted him and said with a wry smile, "It's okay, Daoist Fellow Siqi is right. The outcome of this meeting with the ancestor is unknown. In order to prevent any unexpected situations, I should fulfill my previous promise first."
Seeing this, Li Mu had no choice but to give up. Since Jiang Yuer said so, what else could he say?
In fact, compared to money, what he cared more about was the truth that the ancestors of the six major forces coveted the Lingxiao Palace. Now he was in the territory of the Jiang family and under the nose of Jiang Yang, the ancestor of the Jiang family. The longer he stayed, the more likely his identity would be exposed. Therefore, before getting the truth, he did not want to waste time on other things, not even 700 trillion Chaos Stones. After all, he was not too reluctant about Chaos Stones, especially when he had just collected hundreds of billions of the top young cultivators in the Qiongzu Universe.
Five days later, under the leadership of Jiang Yuer, Li Mu and his party arrived at a luxurious palace, which was Jiang Yuer's residence.
"Young lady, welcome back to the palace!" Seeing Jiang Yuer coming, a group of servants quickly gathered and lined up neatly in an instant to welcome Jiang Yuer.
Jiang Yuer nodded slightly to the servants and said, "Everyone has worked hard. Go and do your own things. Don't worry about me."
At this moment, she felt somewhat fortunate, at least the servants in her mansion didn't know about her and the Ji family.
"Brother, after all, we are here to take Jiang Yuer's money, and Jiang Yuer's money also represents the Jiang family's money. This is still on someone else's territory. It would not be good if people knew about it. You have a high level of cultivation, so why don't you help watch for us outside?" Chen Siqi said to Li Mu in a low voice and in a serious tone.
Li Mu smiled bitterly when he heard this. This wasn't about asking him to keep watch, it was clearly about trying to get him away!
However, Li Mu was really afraid of being exposed, so he accepted Chen Siqi's suggestion and let them go to Jiang Yuer's treasure house to get things themselves.
Seeing that Li Mu agreed, Chen Siqi couldn't help but smile from ear to ear, and happily followed Jiang Yuer towards the treasure house.
But soon she frowned. Although Li Mu was sent away by her, Liu Yuanbai was still following him. Liu Yuanbai was Li Mu's lackey. What would happen if he knew that Jiang Yuer's reward was 700 trillion?
So Chen Siqi quickly stopped Liu Yuanbai, coughed lightly, and said to Liu Yuanbai earnestly: "Old Liu, you are already old, how come you don't have any sense at all?"
Liu Yuanbai was stunned when he heard this, and asked in confusion: "Ah? Miss Siqi, please explain clearly."
Chen Siqi curled her lips and said, "How private is the treasury? Palace Master Jiang and I are both girls, what's the big deal about you, a grown man, following us?"
"This..." Liu Yuanbai was speechless. It was already this time and Chen Siqi was still thinking about these things. Besides, he had lived for more than a trillion years. In his eyes, Chen Siqi and Jiang Yuer were just two little kids.
Seeing that Liu Yuanbai was not getting the point, Chen Siqi felt helpless, so she lowered her voice and said to Liu Yuanbai in a voice that only the two of them could hear: "The Palace Master is outside keeping watch, is it appropriate for you to follow us as a subordinate?"
Liu Yuanbai was stunned when he heard this. Chen Siqi was right. What was his status? He asked the Palace Master to keep watch for him? This was a taboo for a subordinate!
Thinking of this, Liu Yuanbai solemnly clasped his fists towards Chen Siqi and said to her, "Thank you, Deputy Palace Master Chen, for your reminder. I will go and assist you right away."
After saying that, he turned around and flew towards Li Mu.
Watching Liu Yuanbai leave, Chen Siqi finally breathed a sigh of relief. Now everything was ready except for the east wind. As long as she could get the 700 trillion chaos stones, she would be rich!
As for whether the truth would be revealed later, Chen Siqi didn't care at all. He wanted her to spit out the money in her pocket? No way!
…………
Two hours later, Chen Siqi and Jiang Yuer walked out of the treasure house. From Chen Siqi's high-spirited face, it can be seen that she was very satisfied with the gains of this trip, and her efforts for so long were worth it.
