2168 Your Man Is So Rich

Peach Blossom Dock.

In the sky above Clear Water Cliff, Tang Ke stood in midair. He looked at Su Li and said with a smile, “Li Zi, the victor wasn’t decided previously. Why don’t we do it again today?”

This was Su Li’s original plan, but she didn’t expect Tang Ke to take the initiative to suggest it.

Her eyes lit up. “Okay!”

Hearing this, the onlookers immediately boiled over. “These two are competing again?”

“I heard that 10,000 years ago, the two of them each refined five holy weapons. I wonder if it will happen again this time?”

“I don’t ask for five or ten pieces. As long as I can witness the birth of a holy weapon with my own eyes, I won’t have any regrets in my life!”

“I wonder who will win this time?”

…

“To be fair, let’s use the same thing.” As Tang Ke spoke, he handed over a Cosmic Ring. “I borrowed this from His Grace previously. One for me and one for you.”

Su Li had already heard about this from Chu Liuyue, so she wasn’t surprised by Tang Ke’s actions. But when she looked up and saw the faint joy and eagerness in Tang Ke’s eyes, her heart skipped a beat. I recall that Chu Liuyue had asked me to pretend not to know…

She raised her eyebrows slightly and cooperated with a look of surprise. “Mine too?”

Tang Ke smiled and raised his chin. “See if you like it.”

Su Li was also a little curious. She immediately sent a thought into the Cosmic Ring.

When she saw it, her heart skipped a beat. She then looked up at Tang Ke in shock, her beautiful eyes filled with disbelief. “This—”

This time, she wasn’t pretending. She was really shocked!

Seeing her reaction, Tang Ke was very happy, and the smile on his face became even wider. “How is it? Do you like it?”

Su Li’s lips moved, and excitement surged in her heart.

She looked at the Cosmic Ring in her hand and simply couldn’t put it down. The joy in her eyes was almost overflowing. “I like it!”

She sighed simply and bluntly. The refining materials inside are all rare and extremely precious! Even I can’t help but sigh. It is extremely rare to get these materials!

“You said that these were all borrowed from His Grace?”

Tang Ke nodded his head.

Su Li took a deep breath and thanked Rong Xiu very seriously. At the same time, she sighed with emotion. “It’s said that the Sky-Cloud Empire has been passed down for thousands of years and has a deep foundation. Looking at it now, it really lives up to its reputation!”

Su Li sighed in her heart. Any one of these things is a treasure that people would never be able to obtain in their lives. In Rong Xiu’s mouth, they seem to have become worthless items. This is really…

Chu Liuyue was at a loss.

When she saw Su Li’s reaction at first, she thought that she was cooperating with Tang Ke to act. At that time, she had even silently lamented that Su Li’s acting skills weren’t bad.

However, the subsequent developments made her realize that Su Li’s surprise and joy didn’t seem to be fake.

One has to know that Su Li is an Armory Refinement Saint! She has seen many used artifact refining treasures. What kind of treasure could make her so excited and happy?

Chu Liuyue glanced at Rong Xiu suspiciously. That day, he only asked Yan Qing to go back and get some things. It seemed very nonchalant, so I didn’t take it to heart. But now…

Swoosh!

Su Li took out a sword embryo from her Cosmic Ring.

This sword embryo was ice-blue in color and looked rather round and dull. It was of excellent quality.

Upon closer inspection, one could see specks of starlight flickering on it.

A faint sharp aura spread from it.

“Nether Star Sword Embryo?” A surprised voice sounded.

Chu Liuyue turned around and saw that Shangguan Jing had already arrived nearby. His eyes were fixed on the sword embryo, and there was unconcealed surprise and admiration in his eyes.

Chu Liuyue knew him too well—this was the expression of seeing a peerless treasure!

“Ancestor, is this Nether Star Sword Embryo very powerful?”

“It’s more than impressive!” Shangguan Jing couldn’t bear to look away and clicked his tongue. “This sword embryo is innate. It gathers endless Heaven and Earth Force and turns into sword aura. Once it’s refined into a sword, it’ll be incomparably sharp! As long as nothing goes wrong, this thing will definitely be refined into a Yuan instrument!”

Chu Liuyue instantly understood. No wonder. In that case, this Nether Star Sword Embryo is indeed a rare treasure.

Shangguan Jing stroked his beard and glanced at Rong Xiu sourly. “Sigh, I’ve only heard of this before. I’m only able to see it today.”

If I had known that Rong Xiu had it, I would’ve asked for it long ago!

When Su Li heard this, she immediately handed over the Nether Star Sword Embryo. “Shangguan, if you want it, this is for you!”

Shangguan Jing hurriedly waved his hand and refused. “Mr. Su, how can I accept this? The Nether Star Sword Embryo is extremely precious, and it’s Senior Tang Ke’s feelings for you…”

“I still have more!” Su Li said gently.

Shangguan Jing’s expression froze. “W-What?”

Su Li took a few steps forward and stuffed the Nether Star Sword Embryo into Shangguan Jing’s hand. She then took out an almost identical Nether Star Sword Embryo from the Cosmic Ring. “Here, I have more!”

Shangguan Jing’s eyelids twitched. “You have two?”

“No.” Su Li shook the Cosmic Ring in her hand.

Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!

A few ice-blue lights flashed, and everyone felt dazzled.

When they saw the scene in front of them clearly, they couldn’t help but gasp.

In front of Su Li were five Nether Star Sword Embryos!

“I have a lot here. It’s fine to give you one.”

Shangguan Jing subconsciously tightened his grip on the Nether Star Sword Embryo in his hand. Then, he stiffened his neck and looked at Rong Xiu again. “These… are all…”

They were all taken by Rong Xiu?! According to what Tang Ke said before, he had divided the things into two portions and given Su Li an identical portion. If Su Li has six Nether Star Sword Embryos, then he should have them too! In total… there are 12 of them!

Chu Liuyue was also stunned. Did Rong Xiu… take out all his assets? No, even those first-tier families might not have such an inventory, right?

Looking at Rong Xiu’s casual attitude, Chu Liuyue was sure that taking out these things at once was definitely not difficult for him! In fact… it was very likely that he had more stock!

Although Chu Liuyue had been married to Rong Xiu for a long time, she had never taken the initiative to ask about the Sky-Cloud Empire’s treasures. Only at this moment did she realize that she seemed to have underestimated the Sky-Cloud Empire’s foundation from the beginning!

No, to be more precise, these now completely belonged to Rong Xiu!

Apart from the Nether Star Sword Embryos, Tang Ke and Su Li probably had many other treasures hidden in their Cosmic Rings! All of these added up… would undoubtedly be an extremely shocking wealth!

Su Li looked at Chu Liuyue and said enviously, “Little Yue’er, your husband is so rich!”
