Starting as a centurion, he fought his way through the chaos of the world.

Chapter 438 Surprise
Meanwhile, Lu Ming, who was still in the Chaotian Hall discussing matters with his ministers, also received a report.

A palace attendant hurried in and respectfully said, "Your Majesty, the heads of the Nangong, Dugu, and Dongfang families request an audience."

A smile appeared on Lu Ming's face. He hadn't expected that these family heads would come in person.

After they helped me last time, I've been wanting to get together again for a while.

Now that these family heads have all arrived, they should naturally be treated well.

Looking at the assembled officials below, he said, "Since we have guests, let's adjourn the court. We will have a gathering at the Jiying Hall tonight, everyone please come."

"As ordered!"

The courtiers immediately and cautiously withdrew.

After they left.

Lu Ming also stood up and headed out of the hall.

As soon as they arrived outside, the female official in green cautiously approached and said, "Your Majesty, the three family heads have been ushered into the side hall."

"Okay, let's go right now."

Lu Ming said with a smile.

These family heads have been of great help to the Great Yu Dynasty, so it is only right that we meet them now.

At that moment, in the side hall, the head of the Dongfang family was scanning his surroundings.

A touch of emotion appeared on his face.

"You've all seen it along the way, haven't you? The strength of the Great Yu can now be described as unfathomable."

When they entered the territory of Dayu.

However, it was discovered that many geniuses in the Primordial World have now reached the Saint Emperor Realm.

Even so, they were very obedient to the Great Yu and dared not overstep their bounds in the slightest.

They knew some of these exceptional talents.

It was very famous in the Hongmeng Great World in the past, and its strength was even greater.

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that he doesn't care about anyone.

However, they dare not cause trouble within the territory of Dayu now.

This made the heads of the families very curious, as they clearly did not expect that the Great Yu could make these people so obedient.

"Who says otherwise? If we had known earlier, we should have come to see for ourselves sooner. Their ancient clans are united, and our human clan is no less so. Now that the Great Yu has developed, as long as we share resources and support each other, we can achieve great things."

"We are not necessarily afraid of the other races," said the head of the Nangong family.

In the past, they thought that Dayu was barren and probably had nothing else.

Therefore, they didn't ask the other party if anything was missing.

On the contrary, they would sometimes send people to ask the Dayu caravan if they wanted any rare resources.

Now that I've arrived, I see this scene in Dayu.

I was truly overjoyed.

Their talent isn't actually that bad; they've just lacked resources in recent years. If they had enough resources, they might very well be able to create a powerful figure.

It appears that there are plenty of various supplies within the territory of Dayu.

Especially outside, there are medicinal fields everywhere, with various medicinal plants blooming all the time.

The air was filled with a rich medicinal fragrance, which made people feel very comfortable.

Moreover, a sacred medicine appeared not far away.

The aroma was so enticing that even those with high levels of cultivation would feel their spirits lifted upon smelling it.

This is enough to show that Dayu has a lot of resources.

Thinking of this, smiles involuntarily appeared on the faces of the family heads.

They were pleased; the development of Dayu had truly exceeded everyone's expectations.

And just as they were discussing it back and forth.

Outside the side hall, Lu Ming's clear voice rang out.

"Haha, your presence truly brings honor to my humble abode in Great Yu." Then, he walked in at that moment.

The smile on his face was almost impossible to hide.

In his heart, he truly regarded these family heads as his friends.

The head of the Nangong family and the others quickly stood up and said with a smile, "Your Majesty is too kind. We have come here to trouble you."

"Hey, why are you talking about trouble between us?" Lu Ming waved his hand and said.

After everyone was seated again.

His gaze then fell upon the crowd, and he asked, "How many spirit stones do you all require?"

After the words were spoken, the head of the Nangong family spoke first, "Your Majesty, all three of our families have come, and this quantity is rather large. If possible, how about each family contributes one hundred coins to us, at ten times the market price?"

As he spoke, he looked expectantly at Lu Ming.

The three families together possessed a total of three hundred Yuan Stones.

This number is not small.

But if there's any less, it really won't be enough.

The Yuan Stone reserves of several families ceased to exist hundreds of years ago.

The clan is currently facing a severe shortage of such personnel.

One hundred is the minimum.

Lu Ming looked at them, pondered for a moment, and then said, "Everyone, I'm giving each of you a thousand Yuan Stones this time. If you need to buy anything in the future, it will be at 70% of the market price. Also, the resources of my Great Yu are open to you all."

As you can see, we welcome purchases if needed.

After he finished speaking, the others all turned to look at him, clearly not expecting Lu Ming to be so generous, and most importantly...

These elemental stones can be purchased later.

The Dugu family head, being the most impatient of them all, immediately said, "Your Majesty, is this really true? These spirit stones are no ordinary things. Can we really keep buying them?"

"Of course, you can buy it anytime," Lu Ming said with a smile.

There are now plenty of resources like Yuan Stones.

The annual output is estimated to be around tens of millions of pieces, which is why mining has not been allowed.

Supplying several families was not a problem at all.

"Then thank you very much, Your Majesty. We are deeply grateful and need no thanks. If you need anything in the future, please feel free to ask, and we will certainly do our best."

The head of the Dugu family said with a smile.

And then his voice rang out.

Lu Ming, who was standing to the side, smiled and said, "Okay, if there's really a need, I won't hesitate to help."

These three families are not weak, and most importantly, they are people worth associating with.

If it weren't for their help, the situation in Da Yu would have been much more complicated.

After all, at that time, he was no match for the Wang family.

Thinking of this family, Lu Ming couldn't help but feel a murderous intent. Once the Great Yu had enough warships, the first thing he would deal with was the Ancient Scale Clan and the Wang Family. Then he would see who dared to stop him.

Just then, the head of the Dongfang family seemed to have thought of something, and looked at Lu Ming with great interest, saying, "Your Majesty, what supplies do you think we can purchase?"

The existence of Yuan Stones in Dayu was an unexpected and delightful surprise for them.

Therefore, the family heads no longer dared to underestimate the supplies that Lu Ming had just mentioned.

On the contrary, I developed a lot of interest at this time.

If they can casually offer up Yuan Stones, then perhaps they can also surprise them with other things.

Just as everyone was thinking this.

Lu Ming smiled and said, "There's a shopping mall not far from the imperial city. How about we go take a look together?"

The Da Yu Mall covers almost everything that can be sold, including the Holy Emperor Pill.

If these family heads were to see this, they would be greatly surprised.
