Many children, many blessings: Stealing the offspring of powerful figures to cultivate immortality.

"Your Excellency!"

Chu Jinglan suddenly knelt down with a "plop" and kowtowed loudly to the projection, his voice mournful.

"If my incompetence leads to the inability to deliver next month's goods, I would gladly die!"

"But this ranch is a crucial project for the Protoss! If the supply is cut off, affecting your cultivation, I would rather die than atone for it!"

This is called moral blackmail.

This is also Chu Jinglan's forte—deeply binding his own interests with those of the other party.

Sure enough, the inspector's expression changed.

The Hall of Longevity is one of the most important resource points in this star field, providing high-quality elixirs.

If the supply really stops, and the higher-ups blame him, he, as the inspector, will be in deep trouble.

That's enough.

The inspector impatiently interrupted Chu Jinglan's lament: "Don't try to play the poor card in front of me. You ants from the lower realm only know how to ask for help when you encounter a little trouble."

Although he was still cursing, his tone clearly softened.

"I will report the matter of the insect infestation truthfully."

The inspector raised his hand and tapped his fingertips lightly in the air. "In consideration of your loyalty in protecting the palace, I will allocate a sum of 'Star Coins' to you for repairing the formation and eradicating the insect infestation."

"But you'll remember this!"

His voice suddenly turned stern, "Next month, you must supply double the goods! Otherwise, I will personally descend to the mortal realm and hold you accountable!"

"Yes, yes, yes! Thank you, Your Excellency! Your Excellency is wise and mighty! May Your Excellency live ten thousand years!"

Chu Jinglan kowtowed repeatedly, his face beaming with ecstatic joy.

Om-!

The projection array trembled violently.

A dazzling beam of starlight, as brilliant as the Milky Way, crashed down through the interdimensional passage and precisely entered the array eye in the center of the alchemy room.

That's Star Essence, an energy unique to the Azure Realm, a hundred times purer than the spiritual energy of the Floating Cloud Realm, and far more effective in body tempering and soul breakthrough!

【quick!】

No order is needed from Jiang Yining.

The group, who were already prepared, moved instantly.

[Absorb quickly!]

Jiang Yining formed hand seals, and the phantom of the Myriad Spirits Divine Tree erupted behind her with a roar. Countless roots, like greedy tentacles, plunged directly into the pillar of starlight.

【Cool!】

Ye Wuhen didn't stand on ceremony and sat down cross-legged. His demonic energy transformed into a huge maw, frantically devouring the scattered starlight.

This power was like a miracle cure for repairing his damaged magic core.

Even Chu Jinglan, who had been pretending to cry, closed his eyes at this moment. His righteous energy surged up like a ball of starlight as he began to temper his Confucian and Taoist soul.

The most outrageous one is Sanbao Jiang Yeyao.

It leaped into the starlight, as if taking a bath, and grunted comfortably like a little pig.

The inspector felt that something was amiss.

Why did that "loyal butler" kneeling on the ground suddenly stop trembling?

"etc."

The inspector narrowed his eyes, keenly sensing a hint of something amiss.

"How can you absorb it so quickly?"

"Oh no!"

Jiang Yining's heart skipped a beat.

He got greedy and sucked too much!

[Chu Jinglan, sever the formation!]

Jiang Yining transmitted a message and changed her hand seals, preparing to forcibly sever the connection of the formation.

Chu Jinglan reacted quickly, raising his hand to smash the array's core.

Cutting off contact, though it will expose us, will at least buy us time to process this huge sum of money first.

At this critical moment.

The pink dumpling, which had been sleeping quietly, turned over.

Five Treasures Ginger woke up in April.

"Well……"

The little girl rubbed her sleepy eyes and yawned widely.

Because she was sleeping so comfortably and smelling Xingyuan's alluring sweet scent, she subconsciously stretched.

That stretch was incredible.

Nine fluffy, pinkish-white fox tails suddenly burst open behind her.

A captivating pink ripple, centered on her, instantly swept through the entire alchemy room, even soaring into the sky along the still unbroken pillar of starlight!

Sweet and hallucinogenic.

The beam of light from the cross-border communication directly smeared the inspector's face.

The Azure Realm, the Star Spirit Tower.

The inspector, who was about to reprimand his subordinates with a cold expression, suddenly froze.

His eyes, which were originally burning with silver flames, suddenly turned into a strange heart shape.

In his mind, it was as if ten thousand little foxes were dancing, acting cute towards him, and calling him "brother".

"So...so cute..."

The inspector unconsciously drooled a stream of starlight, a perverted smile spreading across his face.

But he was, after all, a Star Spirit with profound cultivation.

Just one second.

He forcefully suppressed this terrifying allure.

"Nine-tailed...the aura of a celestial fox?!"

The inspector suddenly moved closer to the screen, his eyes practically bulging out of their sockets.

Insect plague? How come there's a nine-tailed celestial fox nearby?

"You... are not from the Hall of Longevity!"

The inspector roared, his voice shrill and distorted with extreme greed, "Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox! Heavens! Such a demonic beast actually exists in the Floating Cloud Realm?!"

"How dare you deceive the noble Protoss! How dare you cheat me out of my Star Essence!"

"Very good, very good."

"I thought it was just a barren pasture, but I never expected it to hide such a treasure."

"You just wait."

The inspector extended his finger and touched Chu Jinglan's brow through the air.

Situ Kong walked in from outside the formation, his face ashen. [He's been discovered. And completely exposed.]

[Originally, we could have dragged this out for another three to five years, but now...]

He calculated with his fingers, and the tortoise shell in his hand shattered into powder: [Extremely ominous. A very unlucky omen, indicating a near-death experience.]

Chu Jinglan took off his glasses, casually crushed them, and resumed his usual aloofness.

But his furrowed brows betrayed the heaviness in his heart.

Facing a superior race whose strength far surpasses the ceiling of the Floating Cloud Realm.

This is a hopeless situation that is doomed to failure.

What are you afraid of?

A crisp sound broke the silence.

Jiang Yining clapped her hands, her face showing no fear, but rather a crazy smile.

She walked over to Wu Bao Jiang Siyue, gently patted the little girl's head, and comforted her daughter.

When soldiers come, we'll block them; when water comes, we'll dam it!

Those who cultivate the Tao should never fear the strength of their enemies.

The once dazzling pillar of starlight in the center of the alchemy room suddenly dimmed.

The inspector deep within the void clearly had no intention of giving these "ants" any chance to breathe. His silver, flame-like eyes were filled with extreme disgust and killing intent. He clenched his fist on the other end, ready to completely sever the interdimensional passage and lock onto the coordinates.

The spatial barrier began to tremble violently, emitting a teeth-grinding squeezing sound.

"Trying to run away? Did you ask me first?"

Jiang Yining sneered, and instead of retreating, she advanced.

She suddenly opened her arms, and the long-dormant Myriad Spirits Divine Tree in her dantian seemed to smell an unparalleled delicacy, and went completely berserk.

boom!

Countless thick, purplish-gold vines, as thick as writhing dragons, burst forth from behind her.

They were no longer docile plants, but abyssal tentacles covered with barbs and suckers. With a chilling whooshing sound, they defied the closing spatial turbulence and tightly entangled the dissipating pillar of starlight!

"Stay here... for me!"

A strange, emerald-green light shone brightly deep within Jiang Yining's pupils.

The vines climbed up the pole, ignoring the cutting force of the spatial storm, like maggots clinging to a bone, frantically extending towards the other end of the passage along the last remaining connection.

That was blatant plunder.

Since we've already broken off relations, there's nothing left to hold back.

If you try to trap me, I'll tear down your door first and chop off your hand that's reached in!

"She's insane! This woman is insane!"

Ye Wuhen's eyelids twitched as he watched, but the smile on his lips grew increasingly sinister.

The demonic blade in his hand hummed, and his demonic energy poured into Jiang Yining's body without reservation, serving as her backup energy source.

"Ah Ning, suck him dry! Suck this old bastard dry!"

"This is an insult to scholarship, an absolute disgrace to scholarship..." Chu Jinglan shook his head and sighed, while his hands moved swiftly.

The ledger in his hands rustled as he flipped through it, his righteous energy transforming into countless golden chains of characters that, along with vines, forcefully opened a crack in the collapsing passage.

Confucius said, "It is impolite not to reciprocate. Since the messenger has sent a gift, why not keep yourself here as well?"
