"Brother-in-law, your Saber Technique has reached Great Perfection?" Long Wanyu called out excitedly.
"Great Perfection? Perhaps. However, the saber is not good enough. I need to reforge it later! "Gu Hai said, shaking his head.
"Huh? Brother-in-law, don't you have a powerful Life Ender Saber? Why do you need to reforge it? "Long Wanyu asked, feeling surprised.
Gu Hai smiled bitterly. Indeed, the Life Ender Saber should be able to withstand three cycles. However, how was he going to refine his Saber Technique after using the Life Ender Saber?
Although Xiao Chen had created the Cycle Saber Technique, he still needed to familiarize himself with it. Every time he swung the saber, it would become an instinct. He did not need to think about it every time.
If he used the Life Ender Saber, there was no need to refine his Saber Technique. Once its strong attributes appeared, all Saber Techniques would kneel before it. Once the countless black energy skeletons appeared, Xiao Chen would not need to do anything.
Gu Hai understood that it was not that his Saber Technique was useless. It was just that he had not reached a certain level yet. Hence, he needed to refine it. He could not keep thinking about the Life Ender Saber.
"Life Ender Saber? I don't really want to use it! "Gu Hai explained.
"Huh? That's true. The Life Ender Saber is rather ugly!" Long Wanyu nodded, feeling confused.
"…!" Gu Hai was speechless.
"By the way, Brother-in-law, what kind of saber do you like? I'll help you choose from the old man's treasure trove next time!" Long Wanyu immediately said excitedly.
Gu Hai felt slightly stunned.
Suddenly, he recalled the crimson saber from back then. When Long Wanyu gave it to him, she said that her younger sister took it from Daqiansheng's treasure trove.
At this thought, Gu Hai gave Long Wanyu a strange look. Daqiansheng really pampered her too much. He allowed Long Wanyu to enter the treasure trove as she pleased and take as she pleased?
"There's no need. I'll refine it myself. A new saber does not need any particularly strong attributes. It just needs to be very sturdy!" Gu Hai said, shaking his head.
Sturdy? Demon Ghost Spirit, what is the strongest metal in the world that can be used to forge a saber for my brother-in-law? "Long Wanyu suddenly shouted in her heart.
Demon Ghost: "…!"
"I'm asking you. Tell me! "Long Wanyu shouted.
"Sturdy? Where was the strongest metal? Every metal had its own unique characteristics. There was no strongest, only stronger. You can choose the sword you want! "Demon Ghost said calmly.
"Eh? What was the use of a long lecture? If you don't know, just say that you don't know. Seriously! You're always telling me how amazing you are and how many things you know, but when I ask you something, you immediately say that you don't know anything! "Long Wanyu rolled her eyes.
Demon Ghost was so depressed that it wanted to vomit blood. I'm telling the truth, okay? Is there no sturdiest thing in this world? Hardness, toughness, corrosion resistance, melting point, freezing point, they were all different and involved a lot of knowledge. They were all different, okay?
However, Long Wanyu had already determined that Yao Gui Ling was ignorant. Demon Ghost felt sullen for a while. Why was he so unlucky? Why did he possess her?
"Alright, I know a metal. Whether you can find it or not is your problem! Do you want to hear it? "Demon Ghost Spirit said angrily.
"Who knows if you're deliberately making it up? Don't pretend to be something. If you don't know, then just don't know. Why are you spouting so much nonsense? Tell me if you want! "Long Wanyu said disdainfully.
Demon Ghost Spirit was so depressed that it wanted to kneel down. Am I so unprincipled?
"It's called the Heavenly Punishment Stone!" Demon Ghost Spirit explained.
"Heavenly Punishment Stone?"
"Yes, this Heavenly Punishment Stone has its own consciousness. It can eat all kinds of metals to strengthen itself. The more metals it eats, the more it knows! It's as if even the heavens can't stand it. Wherever it goes, it will be struck by lightning. Anyway, this is the strongest. If Gu Hai has the ability, you can ask him to find it! "Demon Ghost Spirit said solemnly.
"Is there any in the old man's treasure vault?" Long Wanyu asked.
"No!" Demon Ghost Spirit recalled.
"Keep making it up. Do you think I'll believe you?" Long Wanyu had a look of disbelief.
Demon Ghost Spirit suddenly felt a headache. Why don't you believe me when I'm telling the truth? Where's the most basic trust between people? Why am I trapped in Long Wanyu's body? Why am I so unlucky?
"What are you making up?" Gu Hai asked curiously.
Gu Hai couldn't hear the conversation between the two. It was only when Long Wanyu showed a look of disdain that he looked over curiously.
"Nothing much. I just chatted with Demon Ghost Spirit for a while. He's a liar and pretends to be very knowledgeable. I asked him what metal is the best for refining a knife. He said something about the Heavenly Punishment Stone. He even said that the Heavenly Punishment Stone will eat metals by itself. The more it eats, the stronger it will be. He even said that the heavens are jealous of it and will strike it with lightning, "Long Wanyu said with a look of disdain.
"The heavens are jealous of the Heavenly Punishment Stone?" Gu Hai was stunned.
"I didn't say that the heavens are 'jealous'. I didn't say that! Long Wanyu, if you want to introduce it, then just introduce it. Don't change the words so casually! "Demon Ghost Spirit wanted to cry but had no tears.
Long Wanyu naturally ignored Demon Ghost Spirit. Gu Hai couldn't hear it either.
"Brother-in-law, don't listen to him. He's just a liar! He doesn't have much ability and always pretends to be an old man. Does he think that I'll believe him? Brother-in-law, don't bother with him! "Long Wanyu said with disdain.
Demon Ghost Spirit, "…!"
Why am I so unlucky?
Gu Hai nodded.
Montes and Gao Xianzhi walked up to him.
"Greetings, Your Majesty. Congratulations to Your Majesty for mastering the knife technique!" Gao Xianzhi said respectfully.
"Greetings, Your Majesty! This humble subject is late! I hope Your Majesty will forgive me! "Montes also said respectfully.
"It's good that you're here. Let's go. Follow me back to Huangfu Hall and tell me about the recent situation of the Embroidered Uniform Guards!" Gu Hai said with a smile.
"Yes!" Montes answered.
Their group stepped onto the crane carriage and flew towards Huangfu Hall. Along the way, Meng Tai ceaselessly introduced his Embroidered Uniform Guards. After all, he hadn't delayed in the slightest during this period of time, and he'd ceaselessly recruited and trained people. The number of Embroidered Uniform Guards had increased by countless times.
Along the way, Gu Hai listened patiently. When they were about to reach Huangfu Hall, Gu Hai nodded and said, "All in all, it's alright. However, every Embroidered Uniform Guard must be strictly selected. We can't let a single black sheep ruin the fairness of the Embroidered Uniform Guard!"
"Yes!" Montes answered.
"This time, I summoned you here to spread the Embroidered Uniform Guard cloth to twenty-four cities. At the same time, the Embroidered Uniform Guard will be divided into an external branch! "Gu Hai said solemnly.
"Oh?"
"Within the country, you will be in charge of monitoring the world. Outside the country, you will be in charge of collecting intelligence. I need you to quickly expand the Embroidered Uniform Guard and write a report for me! "Gu Hai said solemnly.
"Yes!" Montes suppressed his excitement.
Not only monitoring the world, but the emperor also gave him authority? Collecting intelligence outside of the Han Dynasty?
Montes rubbed his hands together in excitement, "Your Majesty, the expansion requires a large amount of spirit stones. What about the spirit stones?"
"That's why I want you to write a report for me. I will give you the funds. As long as the Embroidered Uniform Guard does a good job and sends over valuable items, I will not be stingy with any spirit stones. I will give you as much as you want!" Gu Hai said solemnly.
"Yes!" Montes answered.
"Whoosh!"
The crane carriage landed in Huangfu Hall's square.
Binghime, who was not far away, immediately walked over.
"Your Majesty!" Binghime said with a frown.
"Hmm?" Gu Hai looked at Binghime in confusion.
"This subject went to the Ministry of Revenue to withdraw money, but the Ministry of Revenue asked me to use it sparingly. Will the spirit stones be enough? My post-disaster reconstruction cannot be stopped, right? "Binghime said worriedly.
"Don't worry, the post-disaster reconstruction cannot be stopped!" Gu Hai said with a smile.
"But this subject heard that Your Majesty has used all the taxes collected from the twelve cities that have just been conquered for the people's livelihood. Moreover, Your Majesty has promised to return all the spirit stones that the citizens of Chaoge City lent Your Majesty to deal with the Fire Locust Deity. Will the taxes collected from the remaining cities be enough to manage so many cities?" Binghime asked worriedly.
"Don't worry, in a few days, the Imperial Casino Holiday Villa will open in twenty-four cities. At that time, we will have enough spirit stones!" Gu Hai shook his head.
"Eh?" Binghime was slightly taken aback.
She suddenly remembered the scene on Nine-Five Island. The Imperial Casino Holiday Villa was a divine beast that swallowed gold. Now, it was going to be fully opened?
Moreover, the First Pavilion on this street was also stationed in the major cities. They were all powerful divine tools that could absorb gold. Why would they worry about not having enough spirit stones?
"This subject is overthinking!" Binghime said with a bitter smile.
Gu Hai nodded and did not blame her.
Binghime continued to be in charge of the post-disaster reconstruction.
In Huangfu Hall, Gu Hai gathered all the officials for a court meeting. After dealing with some administrative matters, he introduced Montes to the officials.
The Embroidered Uniform Guards had officially started to station in the twenty-four cities.
Under Gu Hai's management, the Han Dynasty had improved greatly in just three months. The citizens could see the difference with their naked eyes.
Chaoge City's array formation had been repaired, and the injured citizens were taken care of.
The First Pavilion on this street, the Imperial Casino Holiday Villa, absorbed a large amount of spirit stones. A portion was transported back to Nine-Five Island for Guqin to set up the array formation, a portion was used for the government and the military, a portion was stored by Gu Hai, and a large portion was used for the citizens.
The citizens saw the continuous changes around them, and they suddenly recognized the Han Dynasty.
This was an emperor that could earn money, an emperor that was willing to spend money on the citizens. Naturally, the citizens recognized Gu Hai more and more.
"It's so boring. Brother-in-law, I'm tired of your Chaoge City every day. A while ago, the Imperial Casino opened, and I went to play for a while. It's so boring!" Long Wanyu said, feeling bored.
Gu Hai looked at Long Wanyu and smiled bitterly. Of course, you think it's boring? A prophet going to gamble? Who can win against you?
"Brother-in-law, why don't you bring me out to play? That old man didn't say that I can't go out with you, "Long Wanyu said expectantly.
Gu Hai was about to say something.
"Your Majesty!"
Suddenly, a shout came from outside the study.
"Hmm? Come in! "Gu Hai said.
A black-robed person slowly walked into the study.
"Julu? You've also broken through? "Gu Hai asked.
The black-robed person said respectfully, "Yes, I've broken through. That's why I can transform into a human form like Zhi Zun!"
"That's good. What's the matter?" Gu Hai asked.
The black-robed person was silent for a while before saying, "Your Majesty, may I know your grudge against Zhi Zun …!"
"I'll definitely avenge Lu Shi Shen. Don't worry! I remember that the enemy is the former Emperor of the Great Huang Dynasty, Xi Yan? Didn't I send you to investigate? "Gu Hai said Solemnly.
"Yes, there's news!" Julu said.
"Oh?" Gu Hai narrowed his eyes.
"Your Majesty, do you still remember the Valley of Death?" Julu asked.
"When Huangfu Chaoge was poisoned by the Drought Demon Fire Poison, I captured the Fire Locust Deity. He said that the fire poison came from the Valley of Death?" Gu Hai frowned.
"Yes, we just got the news that a city has been built in the Valley of Death. Rumor has it that there are dragon roars coming from there. It seems like a new dragon vein is about to be born. Countless cultivators are going there to fight for the dragon vein. And our people saw Xi Yan's figure there! "Ju Lu said solemnly.
"Valley of Death? Dragon Vein? "Gu Hai raised his eyebrows.
He still remembered his Dragon Vein. When the news of the Dragon Vein on Nine-Five Island spread, countless experts went there. Now, another Dragon Vein was about to be born?
"Yes, the newly built city is named Dragon Vein City! Your Majesty, our greatest enemy is right there, we … Xi Yan, I am a peerless cultivator from the Celestial Palace. We are useless, but we must avenge Zun Zun. Your Majesty, please avenge Zun Zun! "Ju Lu knelt down.
