" Th…This is aweso!" Ou Qi and the rest of the team mbers cheered when they saw how Mo Qiang grew the trees all over the shores. They did not know how precious these coconuts were but given that Mo Qiang worked so hard and looked for them all over the place it was enough to let them know that the coconuts were really special!
Mo Qiang straightened up, with her eyes staring at the tall trees and their large green leaves that were fluttering in the wind, a smile etched on her lips. She curled her fingers into a fist as she pumped her hand into the air, " I did it, The Coconut Island is revived, damn you——" Before she could finish speaking her eyes rolled in the back of her head and she fell back in the ocean.
" Sister Qiang!" Mo Xifeng shouted in surprise as she reached out and pulled Mo Qiang. She hurriedly placed her hand on Mo Qiang's chest, she was worried that Mo Qiang's core was once again in turmoil but after careful examination, Mo Xifeng heaved a sigh of relief.
Mo Qiang was only exhausted. She had used too much of her strength and cha energy which was why her body could no longer withstand the pressure and passed out.
" I cannot believe this," Mo Xifeng threw her head back before releasing a breath. She then dropped her head back and pinched the space between her brows. Just how much did her sister push herself? She actually pushed her body to the point that she fell unconscious. Could she not be caring for herself a bit more?
" Miss Xifeng, is Miss Qiang all right?" Ye Shu asked tentatively as the rest of the team got closer to Mo Qiang who was lying in Mo Xifeng's lap. They blad themselves for being too useless and not being able to help Mo Qiang. If they were a bit better then Mo Qiang didn't have to push herself like this.
" She is fine, just exhausted," Mo Xifeng replied with a sigh, she glanced at Mo Qiang exasperatedly and did not know what to say, this sister of hers was truly ——-
Mo Xifeng did not think any further, she picked Mo Qiang up and then headed to the tent. She turned to look at the rest of the soldiers and ordered, " Keep an eye on things around the island. Make sure no one causes any trouble."
These past few days they have captured no less than ten thieves who snuck inside the Sea of Mist. It could be seen that Long Ju was trying to pressure them into giving up this island. She was showing them how important it was for them to have her protection but Mo Qiang was not willing to back down which was why she asked the strongest soldiers to protect the island instead of doubling down and letting Long Ju press on her head.
" Yes, we will make sure that the island remains protected," Madam Qin who was the strongest soldier in the team nodded as she accepted the order handed to her by Mo Xifeng.
In the past, Madam Qin used to have a lot of qualms regarding Mo Qiang but now she was the one who admired Mo Qiang the most, this tiny woman was able to do big things how could she not admire her?
Mo Xifeng nodded before heading back.
The night was supposed to pass in turmoil. The team caught three thieves and one murderer trying to sneak into their island, though they caught them just in ti, Madam Qin and the rest were really worried. If this continued what were they going to do? They could not patrol around the entire island all the ti. What were they supposed to do once the island was opened for comrcial purposes?
Was this how they were going to spend the rest of their lives?
The soldiers were worried and Mo Xifeng who had caught another murderer before shooting her dead was also worried, looks like she had to talk with her sister and ask what was going on in her head.
On the other hand at the Dead Star.
" I have already told you that we will pay the money back, is there a need for you to continue coming to my house and harping on the sa topic again and again?" Wen Gui stared at the officer who ca to pay them a visit from the finance and tax departnt. He felt upset when he thought about how they were hounding him and his wife as if they were untrustworthy.
However, this ti around the officer was not one of the unreasonable ones who tried to push Wen Gui to a corner. Instead, she very reasonably said, " Master Wen, it's not my intention to rush you or your family believe . However, the higher-ups have suddenly pushed the dates of your repaynt forward. I am only here to relay the ssage."
" WHAT!?" Wen Gui snatched the tablet from the officer and then read through the information which was written on it. By the ti he reached the end of the docunt, Wen Gui was speechless. He knew that they were going to find trouble with him but he did not think that Madam Wei would be this restless. " The Imperial treasury is empty? When did it go empty? As far as I know that useless crown princess just arranged a banquet a few days ago, am I wrong? If the treasury is empty then where did the money for the banquet co from?"
" From the sky?"
Wen Gui's question caused the officer to flush red in sha. She cleared her throat and pulled the tablet back from Wen Gui's hands. She then said, " This is not under my control Master Wen, as you have already seen… I cannot help you."
"Bugger off, you seem like you are bullied in the departnt all the ti. Tell did they send you here because they were worried you would be beaten up by the Black Shots Crows didn't they?" Wen Gui retorted causing the officer's face to turn red.
Though it was indeed the truth. There was no need to say it out loud.
