Ji Fengyan stepped forward and looked at the herbs inside the trunks, which turned out to be exactly what she needed.
However…
Ji Fengyan looked towards the other trunks. All the things she wanted were in this one trunk. Then the other cases contained…
Liu Kai noticed Ji Fengyan’s gaze and gave a mysterious smile. He deftly opened up all the other cases.
A golden light shone out the moment those trunks were thrown open, dazzling Ji Fengyan.
Apart from that one trunk containing herbs, the other few dozen cases brought along by Liu Kai were filled with gold, silver and precious jewels, all tumbling down from the open trunks.
The corners of Ji Fengyan’s lips twitched. She pointed at the trunks full of treasures. “These… what are those?”
Liu Kai replied in all seriousness. “Money.”
“…” She was not blind!
“Why have you brought all those things here?” Ji Fengyan rubbed her brows. She suddenly felt that having Liu Kai come over here was a huge mistake.
Unfortunately, Liu Kai’s two other companions from the capital institute could not transfer to the Kingdom of Hua Xia because of family ties. As such, apart from Ji Fengyan, only Liu Kai fitted the criteria set by the Divine Temple.
“Of course it’s to put up a good show. As I am the only one sent here, we cannot let the other kingdoms look down on us. That is why I brought all these things here. Let’s see who still dares to look down on us,” Liu Kai said matter-of-factly. He looked very proud as if waiting for Ji Fengyan to praise him for his smart move.
Ji Fengyan felt she was already being very merciful for not slapping this fool to death.
Nevertheless, since the things were already here, Ji Fengyan didn’t just throw them out but kept them for the time being.
Liu Kai still didn’t realize how much Ji Fengyan condemned his actions. He grinned at her. “My Queen, what happened here at the Kingdom of Sa Er, that had the Divine Temple suddenly gathering everyone?”
Liu Kai was also a Terminator and had held the Divine Temple in the utmost reverence. But right before Ji Fengyan left, she had told everyone in Hua Xia about the Divine Temple’s evil scheme. From then on, the Divine Temple had become a wolf in sheep’s clothing.
Ji Fengyan slowed down her breathing and forced back her displeasure. She then slowly told Liu Kai all that had happened concerning the Divine Temple since then.
These were all the things that Liu Huo had told her. Only he, who was undercover within the Divine Temple, could uncover that much information.
After finishing listening, Liu Kai’s face changed and was just about to say something.
An earth-shaking knocking reverberated through the main doors.
Liu Kai recovered his senses and immediately scurried over to open the doors.
He was stunned by the crowd standing right outside the opened doors.
He didn’t know that his queen was so popular. The Hua Xia contingent had just arrived and so many people had already come forth to welcome them?
“Are you from Hua Xia?” A brawny man who stood at the front frowned at Liu Kai.
“Yes,” Liu Kai replied.
After exchanging a glance with the rest of the people, the man pushed Liu Kai aside without another word. The entire crowd barged in.
“What are you all doing!” As foolish as Liu Kai was, he could see that something was not right.
