After a gentle tap from Yuyings finger, the middle-aged mans body appeared as if it did not possess a single ounce of strength and slumped over into the ground, creating single thump sound.

Seal! Yuyings voice could be heard as the runes on the middle-aged mans body rearranged themselves to resemble chains.

Even though he's only a lesser saint it'll take a bit of time before I can rewire his memories and thoughts, so, for now, I'll make it so that people can still sense his powers when they use their divine sense but he himself won't be able to use any of it. Yuying said she began working her dark magic on the middle-aged man.

As long as it gets done before the banquet, we will need him to be present or else those other saints will suspect that something is wrong. Also, I thought I was going to be the one to do it... Zhang said with a sigh as he stored away the strange looking talisman he had in his hand and proceeded to retrieve the middle-aged mans interspatial ring.

Although it would it would have been much better for Zhang to simply allow for the middle aged man to kill Han Shui and then deal with him along with the other unruly saints at the banquet, it would have been contradictory to his nature and gone against his beliefs.

Like usual if he could help someone then Zhang would go out of his way to do so even if it hindered his plans a tiny bit.

Thank you, my lord! Thank you! Han Shuis voice could be heard.

Looking back, he could see the previously defiant looking young man tapping the ground with his forehead as he performed one kow tow after the other.

I only did it for I could take all of his treasure. Zhang said with a grin.

Here take this and leave before you get yourselves dragged into more problems. Zhang said with a laugh as a tossed a small bag of money he had retrieved from the middle-aged mans interspatial ring.

Thank you, my lord, if it wasnt for you then that sick bastard would have made me watch my family die right in front of my eyes Han Shui said as recalled the horrifying rumors about the lesser saint in question.

Tales of making birth brothers killing each other and stories of women forced to watch their children being torn to shreds by various demonic beasts flooded into Han Shuis mind.

First one to the treasure gets to keep it! Ais voice could be heard as a pulse of divine sense swept through the mansion. In a flash, Ai dashed straight past Zhang at unbelievable speeds and disappeared into a path set between two building.

Silly girl. Lingqi said with a laugh as waved her hand and tossed a dozen or so purple colored pills at various rooftops within the confines of the mansion.

Upon impacting the rooftops these pills released an explosion of purplish colored dust that made everyone they came in contact with feel extremely drowsy and tired, so tired and drowsy that they almost instantly fell asleep.

I'll go see what kind of herbs they have laying around you want to go have a look too? Lingqi asked Ling who was petting a little fur ball curled up in her lap while the two of them could be seen sitting atop the roof of a building not too far from where Yuying was working.

Sure. Ling replied as the two of them hopped off the roof of the building.

This way. Lingqi said as she took in a deep breath and located the faint scent of herbs in the air.

While Lingqi, Ling, and Little White tried to locate the place where all of the herbs in the mansion were kept, Zhang could be seen bidding farewell to Han Shui then proceeding to trial Ai as a raced began between the two of them.

It was not until roughly an hour later did they gather back within the mansions main courtyard.

Was there a lot of treasure? Ling asked Zhang as she saw that he wasn't brimming with excitement like he usually was when he had just claimed a large amount of treasure.

Any herbs, rare medicines or lost medical recipes? Ai asked as she saw that Lingqi did not possess the usually glinting eyes that she normally had after finding a stash of rare herbs.

All I found was a small stash of gold not worth mentioning, a few decent sized pearls and a riped piece of a painting Although there were traces of there had been at least a thousand times more gold and dozens of other things left behind in treasury. Zhang said in a somewhat dejected tone. Had it not been for the fact that the ripped fraction of a paint been placed on a high pedistal and looked overly importanted, Zhang would have not even bothered to collect it.

Although there were a few herbs that are said to only grow underwater I wasnt able to find much... Lingqi said in an equally dejected tone as her husband.

Since theres nothing left to do here lets tie up all of the people in the mansion and head back to the Blood Coral Castle before anyone notices we are gone. Ling suggested as she looked to see if Yuying was finished rewiring the mind of the lesser saint.

I finished up over here so we can leave whenever the rest of you are ready. Yuying said as she walked toward where Zhang and the other beauties were standing with a new servant trailing closely behind her.

Also it turns out that this fellow here had actually traded his vast fortune for the small piece of a painting that is currently floating about in your Interspatial ring, sweetheart. Most of your precious herbs were also traded for it too. Yuying added with a grin as she saw the dejected looks on Zhang and Lingqis faces.

Apparently, it's part of a set of eight pieces and is said to lead to hold some legendary secrets. She also said, causing Zhangs eyes to brighten and an adventurous smile to appear on his face.

Treasure! Zhang thought as his eyes twinkled.

But we can worry about that later since we have a banquet to attend. You also need to go store away that treasure in the Blood Coral Castle that had been accumulating for five hundred years also. Yuying said as she knew Zhangs mind was beginning to drift into a wild fantasy.

Okay let's go. Zhang said in a cheerful tone.

Meet us at the banquet and avoid talking too much to anyone else. But try to act normal and not make anyone suspicious of you until the main event happens. Yuying said to the middle-aged man who she had just worked her magic on.

Yes, master. The middle-aged man said in a respectful tone as Zhang and the beauties departed the mansion after suppressing their aura and covering their faces.

In little to no time at all, Zhang and the beauties were able to blend into the large crowds prowling the city streets as they made their way to a massive castle made entirely out of blood red colored coral.

Making their way to a shabby looking shack, Zhang and the beauties entered a small side room where they opened a hatch hidden beneath a few stone slabs.

Using a hidden tunnel that ran underneath the city streets the group quickly their way into the Blood Coral Castle.

As they walked deeper into it, the tunnel often branched off and led to a wide variety of different places within the city, the group ascended a flight of stairs that led to a large room where two silhouettes could be seen sitting cross-legged in front of a pair of screen doors.

My lord and madams your back, I hope everything went well. Chu Shou and Hai Xings voices could be heard in unison.

Connections to the Dragon God Palace If he thinks something like that can allow him to act unruly in front of me then he will soon find out otherwise. Zhang thought as Lord Long Feng who looked no older than him stepped off from the flying chariot and was soon surrounded by a sea of people all of whom were trying to curry favor or building connections.
