Human beings are a curious race, and everyone likes to explore other people's secrets. However, if such exploration may bring unpredictable losses to themselves, most people will wisely put away this curiosity.
Exploring other people's privacy can bring people spiritual satisfaction, which can barely be considered as a bad nature of human beings. When invading other people's privacy does not cause any substantial harm to oneself, such infringement may become unscrupulous.
On the contrary, if the cost-effectiveness is too low, people will look for other things that can satisfy their spiritual needs and will pay more attention to respecting the privacy of others.
As the saying goes, those who are barefoot are not afraid of those who wear shoes. How can we make people more harmonious? Just make them think they are wearing shoes.
Throughout the ages, the only purpose of inciting others to cause trouble has not changed, that is - he actually stole our shoes!
With the development of the city of Cairns, many people outside speculated that Mu Hua must have some little secrets, but Mu Hua did not seem to want to keep his secrets too strictly.
Ambergris can lure monsters, wisdom fruit can help people comprehend magic, cursed spirits can help people polish their souls, and female demons may be able to exploit and trick some demons into signing servant contracts with humans.
These are all very valuable resources and opportunities. However, Mu Hua has already become powerful now. Combined with Mu Hua's own strength, the bosses have bigger businesses than Mu Hua and do not want to provoke Mu Hua's revenge by plotting these things.
Not to mention Mu Hua's own external deterrence, the troublesome burden of Cairns City seemed to have become a weapon in Mu Hua's hands.
People who died unjustly all over the city were transformed into ghosts by chance under the influence of Mu Hua. Ghosts are nothing, but ghosts with human rights are not easy to deal with.
An unexpected disaster had left these ghost citizens with nothing overnight. One year later, the city of Cairns was constantly developing with the involvement of these ghosts, as if they were afraid that people would forget the disaster.
After a year of construction by Mu Hua, the ghosts have returned to life in a sense, and it seems that he has also got a new pair of shoes for the ghosts of Keynes.
Some of the superiors had no doubt that if anyone provoked Mu Hua, he would definitely accuse the other person of stealing someone's "shoes". It was not certain whether the other person would get any benefits, but he would probably not be able to escape the accusation.
Some conspiracy theorists even suspect that everything in the city of Cairns might have been deliberately created by Mu Hua step by step, including waiting for the deaths of citizens. He is an insidious ghost god. To be able to become a ghost god at such a young age, his scheming should not be underestimated.
The city of Cairns seems to have the potential for wealth, opportunity, power, and even strength. It is impossible to say that no one is eyeing it.
But Mu Hua cannot move, and the city of Caines cannot move either, especially when the ghost citizens of Caines City are still considered a vulnerable group in the eyes of the outside world.
It is still not appropriate to deal dirty with Mu Hua now. After a few years, when people have completely forgotten about the Kanins disaster, and the subtle propaganda has made the ghosts in Kanins City less weak, then, maybe we can try to move them?
The city of Caines was initially developed. The First King came here for a stroll and left cursing. However, there are some forces that are far less powerful than the King. It is possible that some people will really want to reap the fruits over there.
Tao Les also reminded Mu Hua that being too obedient would make him easy to be targeted by some small fry. He had Alan from the Demon Country behind him, but he had even intimidated Alan's upper echelons in his early years.
Mu Hua also agreed with this, but unfortunately Mu Hua was "blind" and he was struggling with his own eyeballs...
"I haven't been able to contact Mu Hua recently. As for Evil Dragon, does it support installment payments?" At the teleportation array of the Court of Exile, facing the price Tina raised again, Tao Les asked anxiously.
He needed the golden apple, not urgently, but he would try his best to get it if he could. Mu Hua was able to make the golden apple and gave him a suitable price, but Mu Hua didn't want money. What he wanted was a little difficult to get.
"Given your relationship with the boss, it should be possible. However, for something like the golden apple, you should pay the full amount before picking it up. You can take your time catching the dragon, just consider it as a deposit." Tina said without hesitation.
"Hey! Girl, don't forget that you are a demon!" Tao Lesi was angry. Well, this is considered as bullying the customers, right?
"Lord Tao Les, I am a demon with a master." Tina spread her hands and said as a matter of course.
Although she wasn't sure whether Tao Le Si was pretending to be angry, she didn't care too much because her goods were tough enough.
Golden Apple wants to pay in installments? We can't start this trend, otherwise everyone will come to pay in installments, and they will probably be big shots, what will happen then?
I heard from my boss that some Laurel Shadows spend the whole day in the orchard helping to rid the golden apple trees of pests. It's not that only big guys can afford golden apples, but those who need golden apples are all high-end fighters.
"Mu Hua is really a good guy. Evil dragons are a highly intelligent species. When they encounter threats, they usually transform into humans and hide in the crowd. If there are too many of them, they will be a threat to me. How long will it take me to find thirty evil dragons?"
Seeing that he couldn't scare Tina, Tao Les complained that it was not too much to exchange a golden apple for thirty dragons of unlimited levels and strengths, but Tao Les also knew that Mu Hua had to live.
These evil dragons are stubborn and arrogant, and can bite anyone they catch. At the same time, they are also very smart, have strong magical talents, and are good at shapeshifting, so they are very difficult to catch.
As for the dragons, Tao Le Si didn't think much of them. They were truly superior beings. If the demon lord had a vague concept, then the strength of an adult dragon would basically be on par with that of the Lord of the Courtyard. Killing them would be very risky, not to mention catching them alive.
"You can't handle ordinary dragons?" Tina questioned Tao Le Si's complaints. "Charm is ineffective against dragons. They can resist charm with dragon power." Tao Le Si explained.
"...I'm not talking about charm." Tina had a strange expression on her face, was silent for a moment, and muttered.
She has become accustomed to Mu Hua's way of making Friday at home into all kinds of situations. Tina has never thought of using charm to seduce the evil dragon. Evil dragon, can't she just beat him?
"Tsk~, it's not convenient for me to walk outside. Fighting with the dragon will cause too much noise and easily lead to trouble. I don't think Mu Hua is sincere in selling."
"As for dimensional fragments, I did find one, but it's not very habitable. The volcanic environment is suitable for practicing if you have an affinity with fire." Tao Les probably realized that he had misunderstood Tina's meaning, so he forced an explanation.
"If you have golden apples, would you be willing to sell them? Sir, I must remind you that the boss has a good impression of you, so he made the deal possible."
"I'll go back and tell the boss about the dimensional fragments you mentioned, but if the environment is too bad, the fusion may even affect the original dimensional space. I'm not optimistic about it."
"Besides, even if the boss accepts, there won't be any ready-made golden apples for the time being." Tina shook her head.
Dimensional fragments can be fused. If Mu Hua obtains dimensional fragments, he can further expand the area of the Abyss Island.
Dimensional spaces with a certain area are also treasures, and their applicability is very strong. As long as the environment is suitable for human survival, most people will not easily give it up after obtaining it.
As their strength increases, just like Tao Les and Mu Hua, many of the things they need can no longer be measured by simple demon gold coins, and transactions are often made by exchanging things that both parties need.
It is difficult to compare the value of dimensional fragments and golden apples, because different people have different needs. But for beings like Tao Lesi, a trading relationship can be formed between the golden apple and the dimensional fragments.
"Okay, I get it. Many of you have mastered affinity with the fire element. Even if you don't integrate other dimensional fragments, that dimensional space can be used as a good training ground." Tao Les recommended.
It's no secret that many of Mu Hua's men have an affinity with the element of fire, and Tao Les doesn't care.
When people like them reach a certain level of strength, they will try to improve themselves. If they find a place where it is easier to produce elemental tears, everyone will keep it secret and wait for it, and will fight anyone who dares to sneak in.
Mu Hua might have found such a place, but if you don’t intend to risk your life with Mu Hua, it’s best not to even ask such questions, as it will only annoy others.
"I roughly know why you are here. This is where he usually moves around. Be careful and go back when you are done."
There was no accurate explanation for the Golden Apple incident, and Tina was in a bad mood. While Tao Les was talking, he showed Tina the coordinates of a map in the Court of Exile.
"Thank you." After a brief distraction, Tina wanted to thank Tao Le Si.
Tao Les suppressed the Exiled Court, his color domain protozoa covered the entire courtyard. Nothing in the courtyard could be hidden from him. This coordinate should be where Dewitt was.
The Court of Exile can be regarded as Tao Les’ private territory. To Tao Les, it is like Mu Hua’s Abyss Island, except that it is larger in scale.
As for Tina's attempt to kill DeWitt, Tao Les did not intervene or say much. This situation is not uncommon among the demons.
"Sir, the Witch Soul of the Psychic Academy has recently received some news that some demons with abnormal behavior seem to have appeared in the northern part of the Magic Empire. Do you know about this?" Tao Les was about to leave when Tina suddenly asked in a low voice behind Tao Les.
"..." Tao Les stopped and was silent for a moment.
"These have nothing to do with me. This should be something the Elders' Council did. After all, Penelope 'created' a lot of demons. Regardless of whether someone instructed her to do so or not, the Elders' Council thought it was time to show some attitude."
"They probably cooperated with some witches and might be planning to attack some courtyards controlled by nobles."
"If they cause trouble in the human world, you can kill them if you meet them. If they are in the courtyard, you can help them." Tao Les said calmly.
"Well, the boss asked me to ask about your attitude. If nothing unexpected happens, we shouldn't run into them." Tina hinted. Tao Lesi chuckled, turned his back to Tina, waved his hand and left. (End of this chapter)
