612: Red envelope, map of the Styx
“The God Emperor’s close comrade-in-arms.”
The value of these seven words continued to rise.
Although God Emperor Qin Yang had refused Wang Kai's visit,
he had sent him important intelligence from deep within the palace.
The Shenzhou Empire was about to initiate a Level One Combat Readiness.
If this intelligence were to spread, it would undoubtedly shake the entire world.
Because at this time, Shenzhou, nominally, was the only country on the entire Blue Star.
Wang Kai's early knowledge of this intelligence was no less than Qin Yang saving his life.
Thanks to the God Emperor's protection, the Wang family's business expanded wildly.
They not only acquired a large number of entertainment industries, but their potion business was also expanding overseas.
This kind of three-steps-forward, five-steps-leaping expansion was inseparable from loans with high leverage.
In other words, the current Wang family was very fragile.
Once they encountered any sudden situation that hindered their business, the Wang family could instantly collapse.
And “Level One Combat Readiness,” for market trade, was comparable to a natural disaster.
Fortunately, Wang Kai received the intelligence in advance.
He still had plenty of time to prepare.
“Brothers in our hearts…”
Wang Kai took a deep breath.
Shenzhou had not yet announced the news of Level One Combat Readiness, surely because their preparations were insufficient, fearing that the situation would become turbulent and difficult to manage.
Qin Yang's early notification to him was definitely out of personal friendship and immense trust.
After all, the more time to prepare, the smaller the impact on the Wang family.
Wang Kai thanked Qin Yang in his heart and looked at the secret letter again.
It was then that he noticed there was another piece of information on the secret letter.
“By the way, I’m going to be a father. Prepare a red envelope.”
“Qin Yang actually has an heir! His bullets are really hard!”
Wang Kai suddenly took a deep breath.
He had originally thought that he, who was comprehensively behind Qin Yang, could win against Qin Yang in producing offspring.
After all, at Qin Yang's Rank, wanting to have a child almost depended on Karma.
Who would have thought that he hadn't surpassed Qin Yang in upgrading, nor in having children.
“I'm truly completely crushed…”
“Eh? Why didn't he say who was pregnant?”
“I have so many sisters-in-law, I don't even know who to congratulate…”
Wang Kai smiled bitterly in his heart, but he was also happy for his good friend.
Like the Level One Combat Readiness, Qin Yang not announcing this happy news must also have a special reason.
One of the reasons was very likely the concern of being harmed by sorcerers.
The Professionals in this world are extremely complex; many professions under evil god systems have mysterious and sinister skills, such as sorcerers, who can directly curse a fetus, causing Innate deformities.
There are many similar Professionals, distributed all over the world.
Even if Qin Yang was strong, it would be difficult for him to monitor everything; the safest approach was not to publicly announce the news of the pregnant Imperial Prince.
However, he still shared this good news with him.
It was enough to prove that he held a very high position in Qin Yang's heart.
“What should I give him…”
Thinking of this, Wang Kai found it difficult.
The current Qin Yang probably lacked nothing.
If he was to give a red envelope, he really didn't know what to give.
Wang Kai's wrist suddenly flicked, and the letter paper in his hand ignited with blue flames, instantly turning into nothingness.
Seeing this, Lin Mo, who was beside him, leaned over: “What happened? Your face kept changing from green to red.”
Wang Kai shook his head and said, “My Marquis Anle’s business, you should inquire less about it.”
After speaking, he suddenly remembered something: “By the way, that Feng Shui Secret Scroll you mentioned last time, can you sell it to me?”
“Feng Shui Secret Scroll?”
Lin Mo was stunned for a moment before realizing, and said, “That’s not some Feng Shui Secret Scroll, that’s the nether river realm map.”
“Yes, that’s it!” Wang Kai nodded.
Lin Mo had once revealed to him that she possessed a priceless treasure.
It was a special “map” on which the flow of the “all heavens nether river” was marked.
Through this map, Undead Professionals could locate various Undead Secret Realms.
The previous “Throne of Bones” was found with the help of this map.
Of course, Lin Mo did not have this ability.
The person who found the “Throne of Bones” was her mentor, Chen Moran.
Hearing that Wang Kai wanted the nether river realm map, Lin Mo hesitated for a moment, then shook her head and said, “This cannot be sold. This is my family heirloom, and I rely entirely on it to find Secret Realms! Also… do you think my mentor took me as a student because I am exceptionally talented?”
Wang Kai nodded.
Indeed, Chen Moran, as a legendary Professional,
was also a ceiling-level figure on a global scale.
If it was said that his taking Lin Mo as a disciple had nothing to do with the nether river realm map, no one would believe it.
If she were to lose this heirloom, Lin Mo might indeed lose her value.
However… in Wang Kai's perception, the highest-dimensional item was this nether river realm map.
He really didn't know what gift could catch Qin Yang's Dharma Eye.
Thinking of this, Wang Kai said to Lin Mo: “As the God Emperor's close comrade-in-arms, my status is higher than Chen Moran's. As long as you curry favor with me, the God Emperor will definitely not treat you unfairly.”
“This…”
Hearing this, Lin Mo fell into contemplation.
Just now, she was still laughing at Wang Kai for being alienated by the God Emperor.
But after seeing the Imperial Guards specially deliver a secret letter to Wang Kai, her view changed.
What kind of existence were the Imperial Guards?
They were the “God Emperor’s most intimate hounds”!
Seeing them was no different from seeing the God Emperor himself.
A person who could make the Imperial Guards make a special trip was either a thorn in the God Emperor's side or the apple of the God Emperor's eye.
Wang Kai was still alive, so he naturally belonged to the latter.
From this, it seemed that Wang Kai's status as “Marquis Anle” in Shenzhou was as high as thirty or forty stories.
Lin Mo thought for a moment, somewhat wavering: “The Secret Realms found by the nether river realm map are all based on Rank. If it's used for you, it can at most find a Rank 35 Secret Realm. Its significance in your hands is not great.”
“It's not for me.”
Wang Kai shook his head and said, “I want to hand it over to the Empire, to the God Emperor. Name your price, I will buy it no matter how much it costs.”
Lin Mo remained silent. She looked at Wang Kai, struggled internally for a moment, and then said, “Alright, I’ll give it to you, but not for money.”
“So generous?” Wang Kai was surprised.
Lin Mo smiled and said, “But I have one condition: when you hand over the nether river realm map to the Empire, you must mention my name.”
...Shangjing City, within the Imperial Palace.
Qin Yang, residing deep in the back palace, had been in seclusion for three days.
During these three days, he only did two things.
First, use “Sun and Moon Traverse the Sky” to slow down time, allowing himself to accumulate more Imperial Power within a limited time.
Second, search for the legendary “Land of Divine Fallen” in the river diagram of the heavens.
When the God of Wisdom Yuriannos fell, Elebella had said that
after a God falls, they would go to the “Land of Divine Fallen” located in the Annihilation Sea.
That was where all Gods were buried.
After a God falls, their divine body would arrive there, and after staying for a period of time, return to the Origin of all heavens, awaiting the next gestation.
Qin Yang had previously had a plan to resurrect the God of Wisdom.
It was just that various things happened in between, and the plan was put on hold.
Now, Elebella, Salaman, Amir, and other Gods had also “fallen.”
Qin Yang had to activate this plan.
In fact, Elebella and their “fall” was only in Qin Yang's perception.
They still existed in all heavens, no different from before; only Qin Yang could not perceive them.
For humans and elves, whether Qin Yang “resurrected” them or not, the change would not be significant.
The reason Qin Yang placed this plan before rescuing Lin Xuan was naturally not because he missed his wife, but mainly for the Goddess of Harvest Amir.
