"You want us to be the persuaders." Tang Yun's expression changed slightly. "Do you know that if he hadn't let me go last time, I would have died in South America long ago? And now, you still expect me to persuade him. Not to mention the risk of getting killed, do you think he would even see me, let alone be persuaded?" Tang Yun sneered, as if mocking Zeus's cooperation. In fact, Zeus is no saint; at least compared to Ye Shikai, he's an ambitious man but equally powerful. For thousands of years, Eastern and Western cultivators have been in constant strife, so as a Westerner, Zeus naturally has a lot of support from Western cultivators. Otherwise, if the Netherworld Palace, Moon God Temple, and War God Temple became dominant, would they have any room to survive?

"You want him to give up all the South American interests to you? Isn't this just wishful thinking?" Zhao Yanran, who was listening on the side, also noticed the unreasonable parts.

"Since it's a collaboration, there must be chips for cooperation. I, Zeus, am not stupid, and Hades is even more so. If it were just wishful thinking, then all my previous words would have been nonsense." Zeus suddenly laughed.

"It seems Mr. Zeus already has the chips for mutual exchange."

"Of course, in the future, I can rule the world with Hades, maintaining peace and coexistence. Turning weapons of war into gifts of jade and silk." Zeus's words were shocking. He actually wants to 'divide the realm and rule' with Ye Shikai, splitting the world. But when an ambitious person says things like this, it's always hard for others to believe. Indeed, bargaining with a tiger is a challenge.

"Heh, that's still just wishful thinking. You say coexist peacefully, and others will just believe you? I could also say you work for me, and I'll share half the world with you. Would you do it?" Zhao Yanran said disdainfully. Zeus wasn't angry. With such deep schemes in mind, how could he easily get offended?

"As the head of the twelve Main Gods and the ruler of the God King Hall, my words naturally carry weight. As long as you can persuade Hades on this suggestion, I can immediately make an announcement throughout the Underworld, using this as evidence. If I make any moves in the future, I'd be ruining my own honor." Zeus's tone suddenly became serious.

"Hmph, even if you speak beautifully, facts and promises are always two different things. Even if you swear now, you could turn your back at any moment." Tang Yun seemed very familiar with Zeus's ways, and like Ye Shikai, very wary of him.

"It doesn't matter if you two don't believe me. Just pass along my words, and then Hades and I can discuss." Zeus smiled. "Today, I'm also doing you two a favor. There's an old saying in Huaxia about repaying kindness, so I hope you can put in a good word for me." With a wave, a table full of delicacies was brought in.

"You two escaped in a hurry and probably haven't eaten yet. I've prepared some food, and this vehicle will take you to the airport. I've also arranged a private jet to take you away, so please don't forget my words." Zeus stepped out of the car, speaking calmly.

"Mr. Zeus is very considerate, thank you. I will relay your words to him."

"That's good. Someone, escort these two beautiful ladies away."

"Yes, sir."

"I must be going now. Travel safely, you two."

North American Airport.

"What do you think Zeus is really plotting, and why does he want us to do this?" Zhao Yanran curiously asked.

"I don't know either. Maybe he has a bigger scheme. As for asking us to relay the message, perhaps it's because of our unique connection with Ye Shikai." Tang Yun was also puzzled. After all, Zeus is not an ordinary person. Tang Yun was once a member of the 'Shadow' organization, and Zhao Yanran is an assassin, but in the end, they are just 'tacticians,' not 'strategists,' lacking the far-reaching vision of ambitious people.

"Could Zeus be... planning to kill us?" Zhao Yanran whispered.

"No, if he really wanted to kill us, he'd have done it outside, and he definitely wouldn't go through the trouble of bringing us to the airport." Tang Yun shook her head.

"Should we inform him about all this?"

"Let's at least pass the message along. Leave the final decision to him."

Yanjing.

"Miss Chen, please turn around." In the Chen family mansion, a group of designers surrounded Chen Yuxin, taking her measurements. William, a famous European designer, often designed clothes for Ji Qian, so... he also knows Ye Shikai. When he saw Ye Shikai at the Chen family mansion, he was surprised, but at Ye Shikai's signal, he pretended not to know him.

"Here are the wedding dress styles, Miss Chen, take a look and see which one you like." William handed over a tablet displaying the latest wedding dress designs in a 3D display, showcasing every detail.

So, as they say, money makes the world go round. Chen Yuxin specifically dispatched people to bring in samples of all wedding dress styles. If she likes one, she can choose a real version, and then have the designer customize it to her body dimensions based on the style.

"Kai, what do you think of this one?" Chen Yuxin approached gently. Ye Shikai glanced at it; the style was elegant but not very approachable. The key issue is, this wedding dress looked very familiar, almost as if... it's similar to the one Qingyu wore at her wedding.

It must be a coincidence.

"I don't really like it." Under usual circumstances, Ye Shikai would have said "it's okay," "quite nice," or "pretty good," but this time, he straightforwardly said he didn't like it.

"Is that so... This is one of William's masterpieces." Chen Yuxin's eyes flashed a trace of surprise and then regret.

"Pick another one. William's skills surely go beyond this." Ye Shikai gave a subtle look, and William immediately got the hint.

"Yes, Lord Netherworld, Miss Chen, please follow me here, and I'll design another style for you."

"Alright, we have plenty of time today anyway."

Chen Yuxin looked at the previously designed samples by William, picked one set, and compared it to her body a few times. "This one is about my size; I'll try it on first."

"Alright, Miss Chen."

Ten minutes later.

"Kai, Kai." Chen Yuxin's voice came from her room.

"Ruoya, why don't you go in and see what's happening?" As Chen Yuxin was changing clothes, the designers didn't dare to enter recklessly, so Ye Shikai let Chen Ruoya go in and check.

"Okay, Young Master." Just as Chen Ruoya was about to enter, Chen Yuxin's voice came again, "Kai, it's you I want. Could you come in and help me?"

"Well... Young Master, please go ahead." Chen Ruoya said helplessly. She knew Miss Chen's temperament all too well; with words said to this extent, if she went in instead, she would just be asking for trouble.
