Hearing Fang Ze’s words, Bai Zhi snapped back to reality. She tilted her head slightly, as if having thought of sothing. Soon after, she wrapped her arm around Fang Ze’s shoulder, leaned close to him, and whispered, "Then how about this! When we make the tal shells, we’ll still make twenty billion shells. But when we steal them, we’ll steal an extra ten billion!"
"We’ll just say we lost thirty billion to the outside world! How about that?"
For a mont, Fang Ze almost couldn’t react.
After a pause, he looked at Bai Zhi in amazent: Goodness! That’s you alright, with your ability to expand on ideas!
Looking at Bai Zhi, Fang Ze silently said, "You are, after all, an employee of the Security Bureau."
Bai Zhi nonchalantly said, "My current job is to organize files. What does handling cases have to do with ?"
Fang Ze: .....
Fang Ze silently gave a thumbs up, no problem, logical loop!
And at this mont, Bai Zhi’s eyes lit up again as she looked at Fang Ze, "By the way, your Si Family’s treasury...."
Fang Ze: ???
Just like that, ti slowly passed as these two carefree family heads discussed how to pilfer each other’s family treasury.
When the two finished discussing, they looked up and realized it was already afternoon without them noticing.
Sure enough, once people get busy, the flow of ti seems to speed up.
The two quickly paused their "plotting," and went to the waterfall to check Bai Ling’s injuries.
The Ti Waterfall is indeed sowhat miraculous. Bai Ling’s severe injuries had been mostly healed just after being washed for a few hours.
However, the injuries seed quite severe, as there were so internal injuries that still needed healing, so Bai Ling hadn’t woken up yet.
But seeing Bai Ling out of danger and gradually improving, the two finally felt relief.
Returning to the edge of the pond, listening to Bai Zhi’s fantastical treasure heist plans, Fang Ze’s thoughts began to drift away....
’Counting ti, the Outer Realm demigods’ army should be setting out soon, right?’
’I don’t know if He Weidao and the others managed to transfer the people from those two cities. I don’t know if the nearly ten million people can escape unscathed....’
.....
anwhile.
Taihe City.
After a morning of military preparation, Tuoya State’s forty thousand troops stood neatly arranged in front of Taihe City with a fresh spirit.
Perhaps due to the two days of rest, plus the city massacre calming their emotions, Tuoya State’s army was now waving banners high, their morale shooting up like smoke into the skies!
However... behind them ca faint sounds of crying, sobbing, and screams from Taihe City...
All glory cos from the bones of countless dead, victors seldom empathize with the fate of the defeated. Thus, the Peacock God King turned a blind eye to the cries from Taihe City, rely looking satisfied at the 40,000 elite soldiers before him, then instructed the herald, "Raise the artifact."
The herald took the order and shouted loudly, "Raise the artifact!"
Amidst the command, a banner fluttered in the wind, as white mist began to drift across the scene, soon shrouding the entire army.
A mont later, the mist dissipated, and the tens of thousands of troops "vanished" from their original place.
Seeing this, the Peacock God King looked at the two demigods beside him: Liu Shui and Suo Luo. He arranged, "We’ll split into two groups. I’ll lead the troops to Central City, and you two take the troops to Qinyang City."
"Rember to stay hidden along the way, and wait until nightfall to act."
Upon hearing the Peacock God King’s arrangent, the other two demigods nodded and accepted the order.
After arranging the marching plan, the Peacock God King waved his hand again, shouting loudly, "Depart!"
Saying this, his figure and the figures of the other two demigods slowly disappeared into the air.
The entire scene for a mont seed like everything was just an illusion.
But... if soone were around and checked carefully, they would discover that the air seed to have light subtly twisting, like sothing was swiftly moving....
.....
PM.
Because it’s winter, night falls particularly early in Xida State.
And at this mont, the 40,000 Tuoya State troops led by the Peacock God King and the three demigods also, under the cover of dusk and artifacts, split into two groups, sneaking close to Central City and Qinyang City.
However, compared to the vigilant Tuoya State army, the defenders of Central City and Qinyang City seed completely oblivious, with no sense of alertness whatsoever.
There were almost no search lights outside the cities, though there were patrols on the city walls, the defense was not particularly diligent.
Seeing this scene, the Tuoya State army did not beco careless.
The demigods quietly gestured for the army to temporarily halt the advance, then started using artifacts and divine souls to cautiously probe the situation inside the city.
However, since every advanced city has barriers against detection and transcendent artifacts, they were unable to gather much information without alerting the defenders inside.
They could only see the outer city tightly closed, a bit of activity near the walls, soldiers patrolling the towers, and the federal scouting and defense arrays fully activated: it looked no different from the normal nightti defenses of an advanced city.
This situation gradually eased the demigods’ worries: it seed like the two cities hadn’t expected their side to launch a second wave of attacks so soon, nor did they expect their side to use transcendent artifacts to hide their movents.
Thinking this, they decisively adjusted the battle plan: opting for a more cautious approach.
Monts later, five thousand of the vanguard troops stealthily approached, ard with blades, stooped, slowly arriving at a spot ten ters away from the city wall, just outside the city’s scouting array detection range.
