Zhang Tianyi and Byfla clearly had more questions for Ares and Milo Tanzik Williams.
When Chen Zhao left the base, 23rd Blood Mary followed him.
"Chen, I want the Golden Apple."
Chen Zhao had already expected the 23rd Blood Mary's needs.
"It's with me, but it doesn't belong to me," Chen Zhao said calmly. "Plus, you can't pay."
In the past, he didn't know the value of the Golden Apple, so it was just a decoration.
He would put it in an obvious spot in the headquarters or grab it to play with when a child came.
But now that he knew its use, it was different.
That would be different. No one would object to saying that this thing was a priceless treasure.
It was a core material for creating a god.
In addition, this thing belonged to Didi Ra and the others.
Chen Zhao wouldn't betray his adopted daughter and subordinates for a Golden Apple.
So, he didn't have the right to decide.
Although 23rd Blood Mary had gotten the Primordial Stone from Chen Zhao, her death was approaching.
She didn't have much lifespan left. She had to think about this problem almost every day.
It wasn't unreasonable to say that the older one was, the more afraid they were of death.
23rd Blood Mary was very afraid of death now.
This was human nature. No one wanted to die.
Even Chen Zhao was afraid of death.
But at 23rd Blood Mary's age …
She was facing death for real.
This was an unavoidable problem.
She had to face this problem wholeheartedly.
Extending her lifespan was an eternal topic for her.
But most methods in the world couldn't achieve this condition.
The 23rd Blood Mary had also used some unknown evil methods.
However, the effects of these evil methods weren't ideal.
Some of them even had serious side effects.
So, unless it was absolutely necessary, 23rd Blood Mary wouldn't be willing to try it again.
There was another method — changing her life form.
This was also unacceptable to the 23rd generation Blood Mary.
Although she was doing anything to extend her lifespan, it wasn't like she didn't have a bottom line.
However, this unscrupulous method was not completely without a bottom line.
Also, there were strict conditions to transform into other forms.
Take the simplest corpse poison, for example. A normal person would be poisoned if they touched it. A sniff could turn them into a zombie.
But for the 23rd Blood Mary, if she wanted to turn into a zombie, she would have to drink tons of ptomaine.
To collect a few tons of Corpse Poison, it would require hundreds of thousands of people to cultivate.
Even if the 23rd generation Blood Mary was crazy, she wouldn't do something like this.
The 23rd generation Blood Mary had also thought of other messy methods.
For example, turning into a Blood Clan member or an Undead Spirit Body.
They seemed to be existences that could live to the end of time.
In reality, it wasn't that simple.
Moreover, this kind of transformation would cause her to fall from the top of the spiritual world to the bottom.
In the end, the 23rd Blood Mary set her sights on the immortals of the East and the gods of the West.
"How do you know I can't afford it?" Although the 23rd Blood Mary was begging Chen Zhao, she still looked proud when she mentioned the price.
"Do you?"
"Alright, let's hear it. What price can you offer?"
"As long as you agree to the deal, then I can tell you my price."
Chen Zhao was surprised. The 23rd Blood Mary wasn't even willing to tell him the price.
Could it be that the price she offered was really so high?
So high that even he had to be on guard?
She should know that I wouldn't go so far as to rob her, right?
"If you don't tell me what price you're offering, how am I supposed to trade with you?"
The 23rd Blood Mary hesitated for a moment. "Let me think about it."
Chen Zhao pouted. He felt that the 23rd Blood Mary was insincere.
Was it so hard to get her to name her price?
Wouldn't it be harder for her to take it out?
It was already morning when he returned home.
Then he sent Fali and the kids to work and school.
Chen Zhao continued packing, preparing to move to Mingyue Villa.
Actually, there weren't many things that needed to be moved. After a few days of continuous moving,
Now, he was only left with his daily clothes.
In the next few days, Los Angeles gradually settled down.
Tim and Bodie had now completely controlled the underground world of Los Angeles.
This didn't match Chen Zhao's initial plan.
However, this was the best choice at the moment.
It was good to have a city without gangs.
But this was also related to the political environment.
If the government was really willing to crack down.
Chen Zhao didn't need to do anything. He could make the gang disappear completely in a year or two.
If the government didn't do anything, even if Chen Zhao killed until rivers of blood flowed, the gangs would still rise again.
Of course, Los Angeles' law and order had improved a lot.
At least that's what David reported back to him, the Los Angeles Police Department.
In the past half month, the crime rate in Los Angeles had decreased by at least 80%.
After taking care of some chores, Steven asked Chen Zhao out for morning tea.
Steven had been preparing a new movie recently.
Drow Grove also came with him.
Because of Litt Grove, Drow Grove had been confirmed as the male lead of Steven's new movie.
Drow Grove, whose career had been on the decline, became famous again.
"Chen, it's so hard to make an appointment with you."
Chen Zhao rolled his eyes at Steven. "You're the one who's hard to make an appointment with. I've been rejected more times than you."
"Mr. Chen, what have you been busy with recently?" Drow Grove was still a bit unfamiliar with Chen Zhao. The way he addressed Chen Zhao was standard, but it also revealed the distance between them.
Actually, when Drow Grove was at home, he often asked his son about Chen Zhao's movements.
However, Litt Grove himself was busy outside most of the time.
Apart from his studies, it was the Supernatural Organization's business.
Now, Litt Grove was an official member of the Supernatural Organization.
His strength had also increased by leaps and bounds. He was also a leader when he went out on missions.
Thus, he didn't have many interactions with his father.
This time, Steven and Chen Zhao were having morning tea together so that they could get to know each other.
No matter what, Chen Zhao had helped him a lot.
Because of the failure of his previous movie investment, the box office wasn't very good. The bank was already urging him to repay.
Now that Steven was the male lead of the movie, the bank immediately relaxed the repayment period.
This wasn't the main thing. His other aspects had been strengthened because of this too.
His career was revived, and his other aspects improved too.
So, he naturally had to thank Chen Zhao.
If possible, he wanted to build a more stable relationship with Chen Zhao, not just because his son was Chen Zhao's student.
