Su Yu looked at him indifferently. With a light tap of his finger, a gust of space energy swept Shaohao a trillion miles away.
Before Shaohao could return, Su Yu kept the space storage device.
As for the treasures that he could not take away in time, he squeezed his palm, and the entire space in the treasure vault collapsed.
The remaining martial resources were all destroyed.
Finally, Su Yu took a look at the treasure vault. After making sure that he had taken away everything that he could and destroyed everything that he could not, he flew into the sky and left.
When Shaohao returned, what he saw was a broken treasure vault.
"Ah!" Shaohao could not suppress his anger, and he let out a roar. "No matter where you are, I swear I will make you pay!"
The heavy roar pierced through the sky and swept across the surroundings.
Even Su Yu, who was hiding at the edge of Beiming City, heard the roar.
"You?" Su Yu laughed as he shook his head.
All he had done was to get Shaohao to pay back some interest.
What he wanted was a price that Shaohao could not afford!
A few days later.
Shaohao finally dispatched faction forces from the surrounding territories to repair Beiming City.
Because the space was distorted, the strong men had to work together to restore the space.
The entire process was very slow.
It took a whole month for half of Beiming City to be restored.
The strong men who had been trapped in the Great Emperor's Palace were freed, and all of them were filled with resentment.
In the great hall.
Shaohao's expression was gloomy. "Everyone, Beiming City was attacked by an unknown person, and the entire city was almost destroyed. This is an eternal shame for Beiming City. You must search the entire city for this person. If you find him, kill him without mercy, and inform me immediately!"
He handed Su Yu's portrait to them.
Many strong men immediately dispersed.
After they had all left, Shaohao's expression became anxious. He asked, "Yanran, what happened to the martial resources collected from the various factions?"
The treasure vault of Beiming City had been ransacked.
They could not afford to pay the strong men who followed them.
Many of the shops in Beiming City were still in the distorted space, and they could not collect their resources.
They could only forcibly collect them from the treasure vaults of the various factions.
Yanran took out a space storage device and handed it to Shaohao.
Shaohao swept his gaze over it and frowned. "Only ten billion worth of resources? What use is that? "
He had close to a hundred Underworld Lords by his side. Ten billion wasn't even enough for their monthly offerings.
"Great Emperor, this is already the limit. All the big and small forces are accumulating wealth in preparation to exchange for the Dark Matter Crossing Lotus Throne. It is already very difficult for them to hand over all these." Yanran sighed helplessly.
Shaohao snorted coldly. "What are you talking about? Since they have taken root in my territory, all the resources they earn belong to me. So what if I take a portion of it? "
"Pass down my order. All sects must hand over a third of the treasuries' resources. If they don't obey, then this Great Emperor will come personally!"
Hearing this, Yanran frowned and advised, "Your Majesty, you can't do that! A third of the resources might be enough to decide the life and death of a sect. If the Great Emperor forcefully collects the resources, it might cause them to rebel. "
Shaohao was unconcerned. "Why would I be afraid of their betrayal? Haha! Collect them immediately! "
Although he said that, Shaohao understood very well.
His actions were harming his own foundation, and it was very likely that it would lead to a large-scale rebellion.
But he had no choice.
If he could not gather enough martial arts resources in a short period of time.
At least half of the hundred Path Lords that followed him would be lost.
And the most important power in the Time Ruler's fight was the Path Lords around him, not the leaders of the sects.
Thus, he could only use this method.
"Alright." Yanran sighed. "I will go inform them."
"Wait!" Shaohao's eyes flashed. "Let Bi Yun Hongxian go with you."
Yanran immediately understood Shaohao's intention.
To monitor her!
He was worried that Yanran would pocket a large amount of martial arts resources in the process of collecting the resources.
Yanran was unhappy. She said indifferently, "Your Majesty, are you suspecting me?"
Shaohao's expression did not change. "What are you talking about? I am just letting Bi Yun Hongxian help you take a look."
Yanran clenched her fists.
Ever since they returned from the Time Wilderness, Bi Yun Hongxian and her father had brought back close to twenty Ruler treasures.
Shaohao's trust in them grew.
On the other hand, due to her concerns, she had only handed over a few.
In stark contrast, Shaohao's attitude towards her was not as good as before.
"Your Majesty, I am not your subordinate. I am here to assist you. What good will it do me if I drag you down now?" Yanran asked with a burning gaze.
Shaohao was not angry. "I have said that I am not suspecting you! Do as I say at once. "
Yanran's lips twitched, and she left angrily.
Shaohao stared at her back, his eyes gloomy. "Does this woman think I don't know that she secretly hid a Ruler treasure and refused to hand it over?"
Looking at the space storage device in his palm, he became even more suspicious. "She only collected ten billion? It would be strange if you did not embezzle from it! "
He did not know that there was a faint spatial fluctuation at the place where Yanran had just stood.
Outside the great hall.
In a corner, Yanran clenched her fist, and a Space Domain appeared in her palm.
Yanran's pretty face turned cold when she saw the information within.
"You are suspecting me!" Yanran could not help but think of Su Yu's warning that Shaohao might harm her.
She understood Shaohao's character.
He would do anything to achieve his goals!
He might even order someone to assassinate her for the remaining Ruler treasures in her hands.
After thinking for a while, Yanran activated the jade talisman to contact Su Yu.
"Senior, can you come out and meet me?" Yanran asked.
Su Yu was in a restaurant, so he replied immediately, "Time and place."
"Tomorrow, at the city gate," Yanran said.
She would set off from the city gate tomorrow to collect martial arts resources from various factions.
Before leaving, she wanted to see Su Yu again and learn more about what had happened that day.
The next day.
Yanran left the Great Emperor's Palace alone and headed for the city gate.
As soon as she left, Yanran acutely sensed that there was a pair of eyes staring at her from the sky.
It was undoubtedly Shaohao's people who were secretly monitoring her.
She was angry, so she used the Space Domain and left calmly.
The next moment, she appeared near the city gate.
There was still half an hour left before the appointed time.
She leaned against the city wall and pondered quietly.
"Will Shaohao really kill me? Or is there a misunderstanding? "Yanran thought calmly.
If she could confirm the identity of the three people who had discussed killing her, then the truth would be revealed.
Subconsciously, Yanran still trusted Shaohao.
