Chapter 1490: Stupid and Rich, What’s the Use of You? (3)

Wu Gang immediately fell silent.
If people had desires in their hearts, they would have weaknesses.
Even if Wu Gang lost his mind, as long as he wanted the Book of Life and Death, he would be worried that the Book of Life and Death would be destroyed and could be controlled.
It was the case with Mu Zhixing before, and it was the case with Zhou Shu now.
Seeing how the assassin listened obediently after the family head said just one
sentence, everyone in the Dong family was stunned. As expected of the family
head...
Those who were slightly smarter could already tell that what Zhou Shu was holding was the eye of the Dong family’s array.
They guessed that this assassin was behaving in this manner because of the Dong family’s array.
But they were used to not thinking much. This thought flashed through their minds, and then they were all excited.
“Family Head, you’re great!” everyone said one after another. Updated from novelb(i)n.c(o)m
“Useless!” Zhou Shu cursed again.
The experts of the Dong family looked embarrassed.
Zhou Shu was not wrong to scold them. There were so many Nomological realm experts, but they couldn’t even stop a crazy assassin!
If it were humans, it wasn’t impossible for them to fight Wu Gang to the death with the same number of Nomological realm experts, let alone stop him.
These experts of the Dong family were just for show. Be it their combat awareness or determination to fight to the death, they were completely incomparable to humans!
But it wasn’t a bad thing. If they were really like the human race, Zhou Shu probably wouldn’t have been able to sneak into the Dong family so easily.
“What else are you capable of?” Zhou Shu pointed at Dong Tailai. “I had already forged a connate divine weapon. But in the end, it was ruined because of you!
Mu Zhixing said confidently, “In Zhu Rong Heavenly Kingdom, the Dong family is the poorest, and the territory they control is also the most barren. King Zhou, if you need forging materials, I recommend you go to the Mi family. The Mi family is the richest among the Nine Families of the Zhu Rong Heavenly Kingdom. More than sixty percent of the mines in the Zhu Rong Heavenly Kingdom are in the hands of the Mi family.”
Mu Zhixing smacked his lips and looked envious.
Zhou Shu looked at Mu Zhixing and asked, “What are you plotting?”
Mu Zhixing had no bottom line. He knew so much about this. Did he also have thoughts about attacking the Mi family?
“King Zhou, what are you saying?” Mu Zhixing said righteously. “Am I that kind of person? Why would I want those things?”
Zhou Shu snorted coldly. “So, do you mean I’m that kind of person?”
Mu Zhixing chuckled. “Hehe, King Zhou, you’re a forger. If forging materials fall into your hands, it’s called making the best use of them. It’s much better than being wasted by the clueless fools in the Zhu Rong Heavenly Kingdom.
“King Zhou, I won’t beat around the bush. I came to the Zhu Rong Heavenly Kingdom with a purpose. It’s not just the Book of Life and Death.
“The people of the Zhu Rong Heavenly Kingdom are stupid and rich. It’s a waste for them to have good things in their hands. I’m helping them reluctantly.
“Apart from the Book of Life and Death, each of the Zhu Rong Heavenly Kingdom’s Nine Families has a connate divine artifact. I just want to help them let these dusty divine artifacts reappear in the world.”
Zhou Shu:
He had seen shameless people before, but he had never seen someone so shameless.
He was coveting people’s ancestral treasures and even said that he was helping them. Did they agree?
But then again, this was the effect Zhou Shu wanted.
If Mu Zhixing wasn’t so shameless, Zhou Shu wouldn’t have wanted to cooperate with him.
Zhou Shu pondered. “You take the divine artifacts, and I’ll take the forging materials. Both of us will gain something.
“Can you tell me what you can offer me now?”
“Me?” Mu Zhixing also became serious. He pondered and said, “As I just said, King Zhou, I know the situation of the Zhu Rong Heavenly Kingdom like the back of my hand. I can provide information.”
Zhou Shu shook his head. “If you can only provide information, I don’t need you.
“Do you think I can’t get any information with my status as the Dong family head? Since it’s a cooperation, you have to be valuable.. Otherwise, what’s the point of you doing something I can do alone?”
