Hearing Bai Zhi's words, Fang Ze couldn't help but have a weird expression on his face.
Enough for me to pay off my debt?
Rich woman, are you kidding me? This is enough for me to pay off my debt twenty times, isn’t it?
However, in front of Uncle Yang and Granny Pei, Fang Ze certainly couldn't react like this. So he suppressed the excitement in his heart, leaned into Bai Zhi's ear, and whispered, "You are rich."
After hearing Fang Ze's words, several question marks popped up in Bai Zhi's head, "Get rich? How to get rich?"
She glanced at Fang Ze, and then said a little suspiciously, "Can my dad really leave me billions?"
Hearing Bai Zhi's words, Fang Ze couldn't help but want to laugh. He whispered, "Billions of billions?"
"That's cash!"
"The precious metals and extraordinary treasures you own now alone are worth tens of billions. Add in fixed assets, and you are now worth tens of billions!"
Hearing Fang Ze's words, Bai Zhi almost collapsed for a moment!
"How many? Hundreds? Billion?!"
With the Bai family's strict tutor who said "you need to raise your own resources to be promoted", Bai Zhi had never seen so much money!
So for a moment, she felt like a bunch of zeros flying in front of her.
After a moment, she came to her senses and said hesitantly, "Then my dad and Aunt Jin didn't take much money with them, didn't they?"
Fang Ze considered it for a moment and said, "I'm sure I took it away. But maybe not as much as we thought before. I guess it's just enough for them to be rich men with no worries about food and clothing for the rest of their lives, right?"
After hearing Fang Ze's explanation, Bai Zhi finally noticed something was wrong. She couldn't help but ask, "But...why did they leave me so much money? They are the ones who need the money."
Seeing that Bai Zhi also discovered this problem, Fang Ze couldn't help but whisper his guess to Bai Zhi.
When Bai Zhi heard that her grandfather had chosen her as the heir to the demigods and asked her to inherit his mantle, Bai Zhi was more surprised than she was when she suddenly received tens of billions of inheritance.
After all, demigods are the ones who stand at the top of the biological chain in the entire world!
As long as you become a demigod, even the weakest demigod can compete with other geniuses of this era. And if the strength can be slightly stronger and then become a god, then it can be said that it can completely crush other non-demigod creatures!
Therefore, even now when the Federation is trying its best to weaken the influence of demigods, demigods are everyone's dream, and they are the goals that all nobles want to achieve.
As a result...now I am determined to become a demigod?
At that moment, Bai Zhi had only one thought in his mind: How virtuous and capable he is? !
Perhaps sensing Bai Zhi's strange emotions, Fang Ze also analyzed it for her softly, "I think there are probably three reasons why the old man chose you."
"The first is family affection. Your grandfather must love you very much."
This was indeed true, so Bai Zhi nodded directly.
Fang Ze continued, "The second is your talent. Even I have heard about your talent in martial arts cultivation. The old man must be more aware of your talent."
"In comparison, your father, sister, and other uncles probably don't have as much talent as you."
"So, this is probably an important reason why the old man chose you."
After hearing Fang Ze's explanation, Bai Zhi thought about it seriously and felt that it made sense, so she nodded again, and then asked, "What about the third point?"
Hearing Bai Zhi's words, Fang Ze smiled and then said, "The third point is even more obvious. That's because of me."
"You!?" Seeing Fang Ze brazenly counting himself as the third reason, Bai Zhi's face was filled with an expression of "You are putting gold on your own face."
But Fang Ze really didn't tease Bai Zhi this time.
"It's really because of me," he explained.
"Because the old man knows my abilities and I believe that with my help, you will grow more smoothly and be safer."
"And he... also wants you to be happy."
Hearing Fang Ze's words, Bai Zhi was stunned for a moment, and then fell silent.
Fang Ze looked at Bai Zhi and said softly, "The old man knows how painful it is to be separated from the person you love most. So he doesn't want you to be separated from me because of your life span."
"Similarly, he also knows that immortality, to a certain extent, is actually a curse after the defeat of the world war. Because everything will be erased by time, and all that is left is eternal loneliness."
"But maybe this long time would be much easier if I had an equally immortal lover by my side."
"He feels sorry for you, and he also feels sorry for other people in the family."
After listening to Fang Ze's words, Bai Zhi finally understood what Fang Ze meant. With ripples in her eyes, she gently held Fang Ze's hand.
Fang Ze held hands with hers, then smiled openly and said, "Actually, I think I like the old man's arrangement very much."
"If we humans really fail in the end, then maybe it will be a very romantic thing to be with you forever."
Bai Zhi blushed slightly after hearing Fang Ze's words. She was about to say a loving word in return to Fang Ze, but before she opened her mouth, she accidentally caught sight of Granny Pei and Uncle Yang from the corner of her eye.
The two people who had witnessed Fang Ze and Bai Zhixiu's affection throughout the whole process were also looking at each other, but their gazes were obviously not affectionate, but they were exchanging glances.
Seeing this scene, Bai Zhi coughed immediately, let go of Fang Ze's hand, and whispered, "Uncle Yang and the others are still here. Let's go to the garden to talk later."
Then she increased her volume and said, "Fang Ze, according to what you said, our family is very optimistic now?"
Fang Ze saw Bai Zhi's cute scene and was willing to act with her, so he smiled and said, "Yes. I checked the account book carefully."
"The Bai family now has full treasury, reasonable asset allocation, and overall prosperity."
Hearing Fang Ze's words, Bai Zhi nodded, and then said, "Are there any heavenly materials or earthly treasures that can heal injuries, or extraordinary treasures?"
Hearing Bai Zhi's words, Fang Ze was stunned for a moment. Then he flipped through the ledger, found one of the pages, and pointed it to Bai Zhi, "This is a medical asset. The Bai family now has dozens of precious medical supplies for treating injuries." Heavenly materials, earthly treasures and precious phantoms.”
Hearing Fang Ze's words, Bai Zhi didn't even look at him, and waved his hand proudly, "Then bring them all! I want to treat Xiao Bailing's injuries!"
Fang Ze:? ?
Uncle Yang and Granny Pei:? ? ?
Good guy, this guy just inherited the family property, is he so defeated?
At that moment, Fang Ze was shocked by Bai Zhi.
To be honest, at that moment, he was really worried. Before the human world was destroyed, Bai Zhi had already destroyed the Bai family's tens of billions of assets: no matter how rich the family was, they couldn't squander it like this!
Thinking like this, Fang Ze quickly dissuaded him, "Using multiple extraordinary treasures together may conflict."
"So, I suggest waiting for Bai Ling to come out of [Time Falls] to see how she recovers, and then decide whether to use other treasures and medicines for her."
Bai Zhi was so excited just now, so when she heard Fang Ze's words, she immediately changed her tune and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you then."
At this time, Granny Pei and Uncle Yang didn't even have time to open their mouths to dissuade her.
So seeing this scene, Granny Pei and Uncle Yang looked at each other for the third time, and they both saw worry in each other's eyes.
The reason why they often looked at each other was really not because of their personal relationship, but entirely because of the way Bai Zhi and Fang Ze got along.
In their previous impression, Bai Zhi lost her mother when she was young and was a very independent girl, even a little stubborn.
Therefore, not long ago, when they were entrusted by Mr. Bai and knew that they would assist Bai Zhi in taking charge of the entire Bai family in the future, the two of them were worried about only one thing: if Bai Zhi got involved again, how would they stop him.
As a result, when they got along with Bai Zhi for the first time today, they were surprised to find that things were different from what they imagined: Bai Zhi was not stubborn at all. On the contrary, he was very good at listening to other people's opinions.
The only problem is: the person she listens to is Fang Ze.
The head of a noble family is in charge of the fate of the family and relies on his husband-in-law for everything. It is not a good thing to listen to his husband-in-law...
At worst, the family's power will be lost, or at worst, it will be directly annexed by another noble family.
Therefore, Granny Pei and Uncle Yang couldn't help but feel a little worried.
They were worried that if the Bai family really ended up with this result, then even if they died, they would still be too embarrassed to face Mr. Bai!
Thinking of this, the two housekeepers felt a little depressed. However, Fang Ze was right in front of them now, so they didn't dare to say anything more. They just planned to wait for Fang Ze to leave and find a chance to have a casual chat with their eldest lady...
Just like that, after reading the account books and letting Uncle Yang and Granny Pei, who looked worried, go to work first, Fang Ze and Bai Zhi returned to the garden.
Sitting next to the pool of Time Falls, Bai Zhi leaned on Fang Ze, a little excited, "Fang Ze, you said I have so much money, how do I spend it?!"
When Fang Ze saw the little woman Bai Zhi, he smiled and scratched her nose and said, "Don't think about this money."
"A big family is different from a small family like mine. The property belongs to the entire family."
"Therefore, it is easy to be criticized for spending the family's public property right after taking over the family."
Hearing Fang Ze's words, Bai Zhi said doubtfully, "Then how can I live my daily life if I don't spend my family's money?"
Fang Ze smiled and hugged her shoulders, "I'll support you."
Bai Zhi was not deceived by Fang Ze's sweet words. She smiled coquettishly and tilted her head and asked, "Then...you don't need my help to repay your three billion usury loan?"
Fang Ze: ....
"Ahem, I still need your help."
As he spoke, Fang Ze even started to make a plan. He held Bai Zhi's shoulders and lowered her body. The two of them put their heads together, as if they were conspiring, "Actually... I don't need cash to pay off my debts. Precious metals That’s okay too.”
"So, when the time comes, we can completely make a batch of empty metal shells and secretly replace them with genuine ones in your Bai family warehouse."
"The next day, I will send a few experts to attack your warehouse, destroy the things, and tell the public that the precious metals were stolen!"
"In this way, no one will find out that we have misappropriated your family property, and the matter can be resolved satisfactorily without anyone noticing!"
When Bai Zhi heard Fang Ze's skillful "privately enriching the public" routine, Bai Zhi's mouth widened for a moment, and he felt that his three views were shocked.
However, Fang Ze was not just making bad ideas. He also said frankly, "Besides, we actually don't need to prepare so many precious metals. I have paid off part of the loan shark during this period, and the balance I owe is only 1.9 billion." "
Hearing Fang Ze's words, Bai Zhi came back to her senses and turned her head slightly, as if she thought of something. Immediately afterwards, she also put her arm around Fang Ze's shoulders, came close to Fang Ze, and whispered, "That's it! When we make metal shells, we still make 2 billion shells. But when we rob, we will make 2 billion shells." Grab an extra billion!"
】
"Just tell the public that 3 billion was lost! How about that?"
Fang Ze almost didn't react for a moment.
For a moment, he looked at Bai Zhi in amazement: What a guy! As expected of you, with your ability to draw inferences from one instance!
Looking at Bai Zhi, Fang Ze said silently, "You are a public employee of the Security Bureau."
Bai Zhi said nonchalantly, "My current job is to organize files. Does this have anything to do with me?"
Fang Ze: .....
Fang Ze silently gave a thumbs up, nothing wrong, the logic is closed!
At this moment, Bai Zhi's eyes lit up again and he looked at Fang Ze, "By the way, your Si family's treasure house..."
Fang Ze:? ? ?
In this way, time passed slowly as these two unrelated family heads discussed how to dig into each other's family treasure trove.
When the two of them finished their discussion, they looked up and realized that it was already afternoon before they knew it.
Sure enough, once people get busy, the flow of time seems to speed up a lot.
The two of them also quickly stopped their "plot" and went to the waterfall to check on Little Bailing's injury.
This waterfall of time is indeed a bit magical. Xiao Bailing's serious injury only took a few hours to heal, but he has already recovered to the best of his ability.
However, maybe the injury was a bit serious, and there were some internal injuries that still needed to be treated, so Xiao Bailing didn't wake up.
However, after seeing Little Bailing out of danger and getting better and better, the two of them finally felt relieved.
Returning to the edge of the pool, listening to Bai Zhi's wild treasure robber plans, Fang Ze's thoughts were a little far away...
'Calculate the time, the army of the demigods from outside the territory should be about to leave, right? '
'I don't know if He Weidao and the others transferred the people from those two cities. I don’t know if the nearly 10 million people could have escaped...'
.....
at the same time.
Taihe City.
After a whole morning of military preparations, Toye Prefecture's 40,000 troops also lined up in front of Taihe City with a new mental outlook.
Perhaps because of the two days of repairs and the massacre of the city, the flags of Tuoye Prefecture's army were fluttering, and their morale was like wolf smoke soaring into the sky!
But...behind them, there were faint sounds of crying, sobbing, and screams from Taihe City...
It is difficult for a victor to empathize with the fate of a loser. Therefore, the Peacock God King turned a deaf ear to the cries in Taihe City. He just looked at the 40,000 elite soldiers in front of him with a satisfied expression, and then ordered the herald, "Promote the Noble Phantasm."
The herald took the order and shouted, "Promote the Noble Phantasm!"
Along with the order, a flag fluttered in the wind, and white mist began to flutter at the scene, soon covering the entire army.
After a moment, the fog dissipated, and the tens of thousands of troops also "disappeared" in place.
Seeing this, the Peacock God King also looked at the two demigods beside him: Liu Shui and Xia Yang. Arranged, "Then we will divide our troops into two groups. I will lead the troops to the central city, and you two will lead the troops to Qinyang City."
"Remember to stay hidden along the way and wait until dark before taking action."
After hearing the arrangement of the Peacock God King, the other two demigods nodded and accepted the order.
After arranging the march plan, the Peacock God King waved his hand again and shouted loudly, "Let's go!"
With that said, he and the other two demigods slowly disappeared into the air.
The entire scene felt as if everything just now was an illusion.
But...if someone is nearby and looks carefully, they will find that there seems to be a slight distortion of light in the air, as if something is moving rapidly...
.....
18:00.
Because it is winter now, the nights in Cedar State get dark very early.
At this time, the 40,000 Tuoye Province army led by the Peacock God King and three other demigods also used the cover of twilight and the noble phantom to divide into two groups and reach the vicinity of Central City and Qinyang City.
However, compared to the Tuoye Prefecture army that was eyeing them with eager eyes, the defenders of Central City and Qinyang City seemed to be completely unaware and without any vigilance.
There were almost no searchlights outside the city. Although there were defenders patrolling the city walls, they were not serious about the defense.
Seeing this scene, the Tuoyezhou army did not take it lightly.
Several demigods quietly made a gesture to signal the army to temporarily stop advancing, and then began to use their noble phantoms and souls to tentatively investigate the situation in the city.
But because every high-end city has anti-reconnaissance and anti-paranormal treasure phantom barriers, there is not much they can detect without attracting the attention of the defenders in the city.
All you can see is that the outer city is closed, there is some economy near the city wall, there are soldiers patrolling the city tower, and the federal reconnaissance and defense arrays are also fully activated: it looks no different from the normal night defense of a high-end city.
This situation also made several demigods gradually let down their guard: it seemed that these two cities did not expect that their side would launch a second wave of attacks so soon, nor did they expect that their side would use extraordinary treasures to hide their whereabouts.
Thinking this way, they also decisively changed their battle plan: they planned to be more prudent.
So, in a moment, the forward team of 5,000 people was invisible, holding sharp blades, and walked slowly and hunched over ten meters away from the city wall, just out of reach of the city's detection array.
They were lurking there, as motionless as statues, patiently waiting for orders.
I don't know how long it took, maybe a few seconds or a few minutes.
Just when a dark cloud gently blocked the bright moonlight, at that moment, "Boom!" "Boom!" Two roars sounded over Qinyang City and Central City!
Along with the roar, a ball of blazing flames as big as a hill exploded over Qinyang City! Directly smashed all the defensive formations!
As for the central city, it is more simple and direct: the Peacock God King who came in his true form just slapped a palm lightly, and the countless layers of defense and detection arrays were imprinted with a translucent palm print, and then Cracked every inch!
Things happened suddenly and ended suddenly. Before the defenders in the city could react, the defenses of the two cities were breached!
At the same time, when the vanguards lurking around the city saw this scene, as if they had received a signal, they stopped hiding and jumped up on the walls of the two cities!
In this world of martial arts and extraordinary power, city walls that are more than ten meters high are just to give the people a sense of security and serve as the core of the formation - buildings of this height cannot play a big role in the war of extraordinary people. So, after a while, the vanguards of five thousand troops from both sides climbed onto the city wall and began the battle to destroy the city!
The defenders of Qinyang City and Central City obviously did not make much preparation in advance. The troops on the city wall were insufficient, so in just a few minutes, the vanguard basically controlled the situation.
Even though there were reinforcements from time to time in the city, they still opened the city gate easily!
Seeing that the city gate was successfully opened, the demigods outside the territory who were directing the war also knew that the time had come, so they waved their hands with a serious look on their faces, and pressed on the remaining troops, preparing to attack the city and complete their victory in one battle!
In this way, under the "perfect" battle plan of the demigods, the battle around the city wall slowly ended. The Toye Prefecture army began to gallop along the city's main road towards the ruling hall, preparing to directly capture the core of the city and then control the city.
As a result, while they were marching quickly, they gradually noticed something was wrong.
Why... is it so quiet in the city? Not even a human figure?
This is a high-end city with rich material life, but there is no curfew! But why is there no one on the street?
At this time, the demigods finally realized that something was wrong.
Their consciousness swept away and they immediately discovered that there was no life fluctuation in the houses on both sides of the road. This made their expressions change slightly, and they quickly stopped the army and asked the soldiers to break open the door to check.
You won’t know if you don’t check, but you’ll be shocked if you check. Sure enough, the shops on both sides of the street, the buildings, and the main house were all empty and messy. There were a lot of belongings scattered on the ground, as if they were accidentally left behind during an emergency evacuation.
At that moment, the demigods couldn't help but have a suspicion in their hearts: Could it be that... the march plan was exposed and the other party evacuated early?
But as soon as this idea was born, it was immediately denied by the demigods: because if the other party really just evacuated, then why would they leave one or two hundred soldiers on the city wall for their side to kill? This is unreasonable!
At this time, the demigods couldn't help but think of the determined eyes of the soldiers on the city wall before they died. Their brows couldn't help but frown slightly.
At that time, several demigods just thought it was a bit strange and didn't think much about it. But now that they think about the situation in front of them, they still don't understand: those soldiers are clearly death squads!
So thinking of this, several demigods had an ominous premonition in their hearts, "Oh no! I've been tricked!"
At that moment, the Peacock God King in the Central City quickly raised his head and shouted to the soldiers beside him, "Change the formation! Evacuate the Central City quickly!"
At this time, the two demigods Liushui and Jiacheng of Qinyang City also quickly issued their orders, "Everyone is on alert! Evacuate slowly!"
However, at this moment...whether it was a quick evacuation or a slow evacuation, it was already too late.
The moment several demigods discovered the anomaly, the ground in the two high-level cities began to vibrate and shake violently.
Immediately afterwards, there was a loud "Boom!"
The ground where the 40,000-strong army was standing suddenly exploded and cracked open. Lava that can burn and submerge everything rises into the sky, destroying everything!
Perhaps because the incident happened so suddenly, many soldiers who hit the target almost didn't react and were directly vaporized by the high temperature! He didn't even have time to scream!
