As his foot nearly stepped on the shadowy ninja's head, Valon instantly felt a chill run from his heel to his brain.

Valon thought that if he actually stepped on it...

The minions of that stinking sculpted dragon, those shadow monsters, will likely pounce on him and tear him to shreds.

Stared at by so many monsters, Valmont instantly calmed down.

"Um... I admit I spoke a bit loudly just now. Actually, what I wanted to say was..."

"Valon!"

Jiang, in a hoarse voice, berated the small green-skinned lizard, Valon.

Upon being yelled at like that, Valon almost lost his footing and immediately knelt down to Jiang Shinian.

Fortunately, he still had a cane that he carried with him at all times.

Normally, this cane not only makes him look more dignified, but it can also be used as a weapon.

Valon would not normally use this cane as a walking stick.

Because he didn't need the cane at all, but now, the cane helped him, supporting his somewhat limp body and preventing him from kneeling down to Jiang Shinian.

“I am here, Holy Lord…” Valon stammered in response.

For some reason, Valon felt that this rotten stone, which could only be hung on the wall, seemed to have gained a bit more majesty than before.

It even had a slightly intimidating aura that made him feel weak in the knees, making him feel like he couldn't look directly at it.

This is, of course, because after the Ox Talisman returned, Jiang Shinian also regained some of the lost divine power.

That was his source power as one of the world's eight great demons!

Therefore, when Jiang Nian actively released his demonic aura, Valon naturally felt as if a terrifying aura was emanating from him.

Chapter 24 Teaching Valon a Lesson

That kind of oppressive aura was breathtaking, as if a needle was hanging between his eyes, causing Valon to feel a stinging pain between his brows.

As time went on, Valon's body began to tremble violently, like a leaf falling from a tree.

This feeling even gave Valon the impression that the Holy Lord intended to leave him here.

With his head bowed, Valon suppressed his trembling and began a mental battle, trying to figure out what he should say next to avoid physical harm or even death.

But right now.

Suddenly, Valon saw a shadowy ninja emerge from the shadows not far in front of him, seemingly about to pounce on him!

"Wait......"

Valon exclaimed in surprise.

Just as he was about to beg for mercy, completely abandon his worthless dignity, and perform a show of utter submission for Jiang Shinian.

But his sharp eyes noticed that what the dark figure was holding didn't seem to be the shuriken or samurai sword that was meant to kill him.

On the contrary, it was a...

"A gold and white jade bowl?"

Valon paused, then exerted force with his palms, using his cane to support himself once more.

Then his gaze fell on the object in the shadowy figure's hand.

He was right; the figure in the shadows was indeed holding a gold and white jade bowl.

The bowl was filled with a shimmering golden light that kept flowing and shining.

When Valon saw the bowl with its gold rim and white jade base, his eyes widened in amazement.

He didn't care at all how dazzling the golden light was.

Even though his eyes were filled with tears, he still kept his eyes fixed on the golden bowl.

The jade bowl shimmered with an extremely dazzling golden light, because it was filled with grains of gold.

Each grain of gold resembles the shape of a melon seed.

Each golden melon seed lay quietly in the jade bowl, gathering its radiant light of wealth before releasing it, dazzling the mind.

"This is...the Holy Lord...you...this..."

Valon considered himself such a pure person—he simply loved money!

Aside from money, he had nothing else he liked.

So when he saw the jade bowl filled with golden melon seeds, he even unconsciously let go of the cane in his hand, and it fell to the ground.

It made a soft "click" sound.

Without the support of crutches.

His emotions fluctuated wildly, first anger, then surprise, then joy, like a rollercoaster ride.

It made his knees unable to straighten again.

"thump"

A sound of a knee hitting the floor rang out, and Valon knelt down directly in front of Jiang Shinian.

Seeing this, Jiang Shi Nian chuckled inwardly.

"Valon, this should be your reward."

His hoarse, deep voice echoed in the magnificent hall.

"But you idiot!" Jiang Shinian's crimson dragon eyes flashed. "What do I need you to tell me what to do?"

Valon knelt on the ground, swallowing hard. "It was going to be given to me anyway?"

“You and your foolish henchmen found my Ox Talisman, but lost my Chicken Talisman! So, I have to take some measures.”

"From now on, as long as I get my hands on a talisman, I will immediately have my shadow deliver it to me."

"However, each time the talisman returns, I will reward you with a portion of the treasure, regardless of whether you can bring the talisman back."

"The more talismans you get back, the more wealth you can acquire. When all twelve talismans are back in my hands, the Golden Rooster King's treasure will be yours!"

"Did you understand?"

When Jiang Shi Nian uttered his final low shout, Valon trembled violently.

"I understand, I understand, Holy Lord. I heard everything clearly. I was reckless this time. Holy Lord, you used a fake talisman to switch the sun and sky, letting that archaeologist steal it, while the real talisman returned to you. What a brilliant scheme!"

He nodded vigorously, slapped himself across the face, and confessed sincerely.

But his eyes remained fixed on what the shadowy figure was holding.

He watched as the dark figure approached him, carrying a jade bowl filled with gold.

Valon's heart trembled along with the shadowy ninja's hand.

"Be careful, be careful! Don't spill it!" Valon exclaimed inwardly.

When the shadowy figure placed the bowl of golden melon seeds in front of him...

Valon then carefully and tremblingly took the item and hugged it tightly to his chest.

It felt as if Valon wasn't holding something external, but rather as if he was holding his very lifeblood in his arms.

"How could a gang leader get so excited about this little bit of money?"

Seeing Valon's expression, Jiang Shinian couldn't help but twitch his lips inwardly.

This gold and white jade bowl is indeed an antique.

In addition, there was a large bowl full of golden melon seeds, so the total amount was probably around a million US dollars.

There seem to be many, but it depends on how you compare them.

It's important to know that the Black Hand organization that Valon championed wielded considerable influence even internationally.

And the head of this mafia organization gets so excited when he sees such a "small" amount of money?

"Tsk tsk, but thinking about it, it seems normal. First of all, it fits his persona quite well."

Jiang Shinian couldn't help but think of something.

I don't know how the previous Holy Lord was using a CPU like Valmont.

This guy has been striving to obtain the Golden Rooster King's treasure promised by the Holy Lord, which has cost him a lot of money and effort.

The result was that money kept being thrown away, but not a single penny was ever received from the Holy Lord.

Valmont was able to persevere because Shendu had indeed shown him just how wealthy he was.

Therefore, Valon had no doubt that God would not have a treasure.

However, this is like drawing a picture of a cake to satisfy hunger.

It's their business whether they have money or not, and it's also their business whether they give it to you or not.

In the end, if Shendu hadn't constantly exploited Valmont and even shattered Valmont's illusions to his face, Valmont wouldn't have joined forces with Jackie Chan to fight against Shendu.

"and......"

Although I brought back the bull charm from Mexico this time.

However, Jiang Shinian had prepared a broken stone in advance to impersonate a real talisman.

So Jade, Jackie Chan, and Tru went to fight for that stone.

This resulted in a helicopter being crashed and destroyed by Xiaoyu.

The rotten talisman, unable to withstand the pressure of the conflict, was crushed by a heavy object sitting on it.

The heavy object was naturally Tru, who nearly died of fright when he sat on the talisman and broke it.

He hadn't expected this thing to be so fragile!

Moreover, because the talisman was destroyed, Jackie Chan took the broken talisman and the two forces separated.

When Tru gave Valmont a hesitant report of the situation, coupled with Afen's accusations, Valmont immediately realized that perhaps what they were fighting over was not the real talisman at all!

That's why Valon came to Jiang Shinian to question him.
