s the finger technique of Liu Ding Liu Jia, used to deal with corpses. Yin soldiers are probably ineffective against the Corpse King. Last time I cut off a piece of the Corpse Demon's tongue, it was a...Fifth Senior Sister has never cared about the family's financial situation, why did she suddenly ask about money

Could she also think that I've been spending too much money lately

"Huh Still, there's more... What" I felt a little guilty. Feeding so many people would be a huge expense! No amount of money could cover it all.

"Oh, that's fine then…," Long Xiao said proactively, "If you need money, you can find me. I can't give out too much, but if it's just tens of millions or a hundred million or so, I can still help out."

My goodness, is Long Xiaoge this wealthy

"No need, no need. I have money here. Mu Wanchen gave me all his belongings. With a little processing, it'll be a huge sum, enough to cover all the expenses."

Fifth Senior Sister turned her head and glanced at me, a wicked smile playing on her lips. "What's the matter Afraid you can't repay the favor I think Brother Long spoke sincerely. He wouldn't just casually flatter you. Probably he thinks you're also stretched thin, after all, so many supplies have been delivered to the temple in waves..."

"It's really fine, I'm already making arrangements. In a few days, there should be news..." I'm just waiting for Mr. Lu to reply to me now. That kind of diamond rough stone is plentiful in the secret place within Mu Wanchen's sect!

It's like collecting pebbles by the river. As long as they actually sell, it doesn't matter how many there are. As long as we can get through this crisis.

I waited for Mr. Lu's message for several days, and he finally replied to me on his phone.

The small quail egg gemstone had been polished and designed. He first tested the waters at an auction house in South Africa.

Many overseas transactions are relatively "free" and not heavily regulated by governments. In simpler terms, they lack transparency and integrity, with many aspects susceptible to manipulation.

Mr. Lu was a connoisseur. He arranged for someone to act as a middleman, easily inflating the price, and even fabricated a story, claiming that this was a "crystal" brought back from the east coast of Africa by the Three Eunuchs during the Ming Dynasty in China and gifted to a favored princess by the emperor. It was now acquired at a high price from a private collector of antiquities…

Finally, I bid about eight million yuan for it. This small stone, which is not even top-grade, sold for eight million yuan. Although I complained that Mr. Lu was a shrewd businessman, I still have to admire his professional skills.

The business world is perhaps a place of constant competition, where you come and go. One has to be both sincere and ambitious, honest and yet weave stories.

"Let me tell you, Miss Yin Er, I'm an expert when it comes to playing stones!"

"Yes, yes, yes, but how are you going to make up a story about that palm-sized diamond next time"

“That’s not hard at all. There are plenty of princes and princesses, dukes and duchesses all over the world. I can just make up anything. Besides, I have reasons for what I write… Ultimately, these jewels are just toys for the rich. As long as they are beautiful, valuable, and show off their wealth, the truth behind the stories doesn't matter. It’s just to satisfy the wealthy people's vain fantasies and their accumulation of real wealth, that’s enough.”

"Mr. Lu, I'm truly impressed by you. I used to think you were a rich second generation, but now I feel..."

"Think of me as a tycoon"

"I think you're a scheming rich kid."

"Hahaha...Miss Yin Er, there's no need to be afraid. I'm actually more afraid of people like you in this circle. My sister still has aftereffects and suffers from severe paranoia, as you can see—"

"Taking it internally and externally is all settled, right But the damage has already been done, so you'll just have to take your time healing. There's nothing I can do about that. Who asked your sister to be so arrogant and flaunting her power, pulling out a gun like that, hmph..."

"Alright, alright, let's not talk about this for now. As for the rough stones that Miss Yin Er needs to handle, just have your Seventh Brother deliver them to me all at once. I'll sell them gradually and pay you in installments."

Looking at the transfer from Seventh Senior Brother on my phone, I felt a bit complicated. This was family property from within our sect! Although it was for helping those in need within our sect, selling it still felt a little uncomfortable.

Mu Wanchen brought me some Lianlong-pairing medicine powder. He told me to make it into a sachet and give it to my sister, hanging it in her room to lessen the effects of the butterfly scales on her.

"What kind of poison do those scales have Are they harmful to the body" I asked, worried.

Mu Wanchen shook his head: “That’s mainly the hallucinogenic scales. Inhaling large quantities will make creatures go berserk, burning and corroding their bones. It would be very painful, making creatures extremely aggressive… So I restricted the range of these butterflies. They only breed on the sandbars in the deep ravines. When I need their scales, I summon them back… Small doses of the scales should only confuse the mind and induce hallucinations.”

"Why would Master Sister do this to my sister...and where did these scales even come from The Misty River Sect, right Did Ms. Xue do this" I frowned and said.

"Perhaps it's your mother who wants to control her…" Mu Wanchen frowned slightly: "Your mother has big ambitions. She doesn't seem to be entirely about resolving the family curse. I feel she's eyeing the tomb."

"She's not short of money, why does she need to control my sister Even though it seems like my sister is the heir to our family right now... but Senior Brother Jun is still here, how could we allow someone to control our home..."

Mu Wanchen touched my head: "Little Lu'er, that's not someone else, it's your mother, your Jun Shidi's master."

Humph, that won't do. My family business, I only allow three people to control it: my father, my sister, and your master.

I won't acknowledge any debts owed to others, not even my own daughter. If anyone tries to take possession of my family property, I won't agree.

"Where is the seal of the tomb" Mu Wanchen asked me.

I hurriedly retrieved it from the hidden compartment under the bed. Old beds like this are convenient for hiding things, you see.

He looked at the small seal, nodding and saying, "You keep it well. Besides me, no one knows it's with you, and few people know what this seal can be used for. If you don't understand the incantation, holding the seal is useless."

I touched the small jade piece, a feeling that the secrets behind the grand door of the tomb, perhaps one day I will see with my own eyes.

"This sachet" My sister looked at the pouch in my hand in bewilderment.

I have already told Junior Brother Jun, and he came to my sister's room with me.

"Just take it. When have you ever seen Junior Sister give gifts This is rare." Senior Brother Jun said indifferently, his gaze sweeping over the room's furnishings.

My sister smiled and nodded. I immediately hung the sachet on her bed.

"This sachet can calm the mind, settle one's will, ward off evil spirits. Sister, don't take it off, just hang it here." I instructed her.

"Ah... okay."

"Well, I'll be going then. You guys chat." I tied my sachet and hurried out of the room, not wanting to be a third wheel.

I and Mu Wanchen tidied up and drove to the hospital to see Madam Mu. We just received news that she has started regular contractions and should be giving birth soon.

The little wife also hurried to the hospital, I've already asked my senior brother to drive to the airport to wait. She'll be here soon.

"Wanchen, if I have children in the future, will you stay with me" I chatted with him while driving.

He smiled: "Yes, I'm just afraid you'll be embarrassed and ask me to leave."

"Hmph, I wouldn't be embarrassed... Oh, who's that"

I suddenly saw a car speeding in at a drifting speed, and then two men quickly carried a patient down from the back seat. Two women also ran out of the driver's seat and passenger seat, shouting and rushing towards the hospital emergency building.

This crowd looks familiar!

Mu Wanchen narrowed his eyes and let out a cold snort.me, taking my wrist and placing it against his waist, covering my back and saying, "... This level of contact can make them quieter. You don't have to think about how to speak or what to say, just hol...
