When that ti cos, why would they care about Gold Sea Town?
What a joke. Are they even worthy of challenging Void Town?
Suddenly, Luke thought of sothing else Daniel had said earlier.
What did he an by… he has already received his deserved punishnt?
Who was he?
And what punishnt was he referring to?
At this mont, Luke truly felt as though his mind was in chaos.
Because connecting the dots…
It clearly referred to that person.
Yes, the ruler of the entire Five Elents Divine Domain.
But… was that really possible?
Thinking about this, Luke hesitated to speak.
"Did he really… receive punishnt?"
"You just need to know that this is the result,"
Daniel said lazily, unwilling to explain further.
"Right, what did you co here for today? Surely you didn't co just to learn about what's been happening in the Mortal Realm over the past few years or what happened to your friend, right?"
Daniel asked as he looked at Luke.
"It's like this—I heard that a young man had ascended from the Mortal Realm, one who spends very lavishly, so I wanted to ask if you had any connections to the Elent Temple or the Dragonscale Bank… and if you knew about the forge,"
Luke said hesitantly.
"The forge… can be said to be Void Town's most guarded secret. It's precisely because of the forge that Void Town's industry exists…"
Hearing Luke's explanation, Daniel understood.
He had previously asked Crane about this matter.
The reason those people from Gold Sea Town had provoked Crane and challenged Void Town was to uncover the secret behind Void Town's spirit plant business.
It now seed that the forge was the key reason.
The liquid drops produced by the forge were indeed very beneficial for plant growth.
Daniel recalled the lakeside trees at Du Heng Academy—they had grown so quickly that they were almost gaining sentience.
"How many forges do you have?"
"There are four in total. One is level nine, and the others are level eight or six,"
Luke replied after thinking for a mont.
"I see. Let give you a few more. We can't let our world be laughed at by others,"
Daniel said casually.
They were both from the Mortal Realm.
And Luke himself seed like a decent person.
Regardless of how much of his story was true,
at the very least, he hadn't joined forces with the Elent Temple's lord.
For that alone, Daniel felt Luke was worth investing in.
Moreover, they ca from the sa world.
In the future, when the Crossbridge World ascended, they would all co here as well.
Building goodwill was never a bad idea.
"No, no! The forge is an incredibly valuable thing. You should keep it for yourself. Currently, our Void Town…"
Before Luke could finish, Daniel casually took out ten translucent Origin Towers with a faint golden hue.
Seeing this scene, Luke couldn't help but gasp sharply.
With a level-nine forge of his own, he naturally recognized what these were.
These were… level 12 Origin Towers!
"This… this is far too valuable! You should really keep these things for yourself. Such…"
"It's fine. I have plenty of these. If ten isn't enough, I can give you a hundred more,"
Daniel said nonchalantly.
Hearing this, Luke didn't dare refuse further and silently accepted the ten level 12 forges.
Because he had a feeling that Daniel might really take out a hundred level 12 forges.
The critical problem was that while Daniel had them and dared to give them, Luke truly didn't dare accept that many!
A hundred level-12 forges…
Ten might be manageable.
But with a hundred, Void Town wouldn't survive for long.
Luke understood the concept of treasuring a jade ring invites envy.
Afterward, Daniel asked Luke about the situation in Void Town.
At this mont, a voice ca from outside:
"Gabriel has co to pay respects to Lord Daniel."
Gabriel?
Daniel thought for a mont. He hadn't been in Ascension City for long.
The people he knew were only a handful.
There was no one by that na.
Daniel swept the area with his mind power and found an elderly man standing respectfully outside.
The man's aura was roughly at the god lord level.
So Daniel asked Luke:
"You've been here longer. Are there any god lords in Ascension City?"
"There are, such as the lord of Ascension City…"
Luke began but then paused as he realized sothing.
Wait, what?
God lord? Gabriel?
Wasn't that the na of Ascension City's lord?

"Wait here for a mont. I'll go check,"
Daniel said before disappearing.
This left Luke sitting there, muttering two words:
"City Lord…"
When the old man saw Daniel, he hurriedly bowed and said:
"Gabriel greets Lord Daniel."
"I don't believe I know you, do I?"
"I am the lord of Ascension City, and I have been sent by the God King to deliver sothing to you, my lord."
"I see…"
Daniel understood. The Five Elents God King had sent soone to deliver items to him.
He rembered the God King ntioning sothing about giving him tens of millions of divine stones.
He hadn't expected it to happen so quickly…
The speed and attitude were both quite good!
"Alright, co in then,"
Daniel said, leading Gabriel into the courtyard.
When Luke saw Gabriel, he imdiately stood up and bowed.
As the mayor of Void Town, he had naturally seen Gabriel before.
Gabriel rely nodded.
After all, the Five Elents Divine Domain encompassed so many worlds that he couldn't possibly know everyone from them.
"Alright, take a seat,"
Daniel said.
Both n sat down quickly.
"Lord Daniel, these are the divine stones prepared for you. Please accept them. Also, the matter of renaming the Void Realm to Crossbridge World has been completed,"
Gabriel said respectfully.
"In the future, we will designate a new area for those who originally belonged to the Crossbridge World,"
Gabriel added.
Luke sat on the side, stunned.
He hadn't expected this to involve Void Town… no, it should now be called Crossbridge Town.
And it was all because…
Daniel's faction was called Crossbridge Academy.
Gabriel had been managing Ascension City for quite so ti.
Naturally, he knew how to make arrangents that would satisfy Daniel.
At the very least, this ensured that mages ascending from Crossbridge World would have a stable life here.
With Luke overseeing things and Gabriel backing them up, Daniel no longer needed to worry about the future of Crossbridge Town.
"You've done well. I'll let the Five Elents God King know,"
Daniel said.
He then handed the storage crystal containing tens of millions of divine stones to Luke.
"Take these and handle the arrangents. I have only one request—spend all of this on those who ascend to the God Realm in the future."
"Rest assured, my lord, I will make sure of it!"
At that mont, Luke's communication device buzzed.
After checking the ssage, Luke frowned deeply.
"What happened?"
Daniel asked.
"It's the people from Gold Sea Town. They're causing trouble again. They've always wanted to uncover the secrets of our… Crossbridge Town. I've been ignoring them because they have support from a heavenly god-level world.
"But this ti… it seems they've brought their own mayor along as well. It looks like sothing big is about to happen. I need to head back imdiately,"
Luke said with a frown.
"I see… City Lord Gabriel, I'll leave this to you,"
Daniel said, turning to Gabriel.
As the lord of Ascension City, Gabriel should have jurisdiction over those outside the city.
Gold Sea World, or Gold Sea Town…
Daniel had only been here for a short ti and had already heard of it multiple tis.
He was getting a bit annoyed.
"Please don't worry, my lord. I've long wanted to manage the outer towns! I will ensure you are satisfied with the outco,"
Gabriel promised with determination.
