Chapter 1242 - 1241: Betraying an Ally
It seems we only discovered this function for now. After putting the Divine Stone away, Tang Rao returned calmly to the group of women."Tang Rao, how long are you going to stay mad? We won't even mention it again in the future, alright?"
Seeing the women admit their mistake so nicely, Tang Rao nodded in satisfaction, and the matter was finally settled.
"Jinxiu, come with me, I have something to tell you."
Tang Rao didn't pay attention to the other women but called Fang Jinxiu over to the side.
Everyone was at the level of deities, but only Fang Jinxiu's improved handgun could have a slight effect on Tang Rao.
Fang Jinxiu had already guessed why Tang Rao called her over, and before Tang Rao could speak, Fang Jinxiu said, "Do you want to ask to what extent the handgun has been developed?"
Although Fang Jinxiu didn't completely understand Tang Rao's mind, compared to others, she was among the top in understanding him.
"That's part of it, but not everything. Besides me, no one in the Kao Shan Sect realizes how serious the situation is now. In the Divine Realm these days, relying solely on strength isn't enough to conquer the world anymore. There are many people here, many families, and many experts. But relying solely on traditional cultivation, like people in ancient times who only knew Qinggong and martial arts, will never be effective. What do we have now? Hot weapons, things that others can't develop, we can improve based on the secrets from the Blue Star, adapting them into highly lethal weapons suitable for people in the Divine Realm. Only then can the Kao Shan Sect truly grow."
You think just the Kao Shan Sect, just my Kao Shan Sect, almost entirely deities, could scare anyone?
"Want to research hot weapons in the Divine Realm? Cannons, bombs, these are simple, and gunpowder is easy too, but if you want nuclear or hydrogen bombs, those large-scale destructive weapons, please forgive my limited knowledge, I truly can't develop them."
Fang Jinxiu pondered for a moment, then explained the general situation to Tang Rao.
"Cannons, bombs, hand grenades, like the old days when we had rifles, those basic things, make me some, the more the merrier."
Tang Rao has suffered from being uneducated his whole life; he wants to do something, to research and improve something, but he can't manage it.
This indeed made things difficult for Fang Jinxiu, as she wasn't in this profession before. Trying to research new things now is somewhat challenging.
"I'll try my best, though I don't know if I can succeed."
Fang Jinxiu could only agree for now; the success or failure would only be seen later.
After discussing weapons with Fang Jinxiu, Tang Rao began a new round of actions.
Two days before the Holy Mother Kaishan event, he found the Supreme Power at the treasure pile. The Supreme Power had been there for several days, observing the magnificent building outside Zijing City.
"Supreme Power, I finally found you!"
Tang Rao gave the Supreme Power a warm hug, clearly showing his strong reliance on him.
"Tang Rao, you finally came back."
The Supreme Power said to Tang Rao.
"How about it? I'm not bragging, but the structure of every little building within Zijing City is truly exquisite. Without my guidance, carpenters from the Divine Realm couldn't have built it."
While talking about these things, Tang Rao couldn't hide his pride, but neither could he hide his guilt.
Stealing someone else's achievements to make himself look good, Tang Rao indeed did it.
"It is indeed so, you're the first young person I admire. I see some of the houses are already livable. Is there one for me?"
Just looking at the houses, the Supreme Power was so moved he was almost drooling.
"Pick whichever you like, except the one in the middle."
The central room was reserved by Tang Rao for himself, no one else could have it.
"Supreme Power, you know my name, yet I've never even heard of yours. Now that you're here, could you perhaps share it with me?"
"Supreme Power,"
The Supreme Power introduced himself to Tang Rao.
"Supreme Power?"
Hahaha.
There's even such a title.
But just hearing the name, you could feel the extraordinary nature of this person.
"Yes, haven't you heard of me before?"
Of course I haven't heard of you, I've only been in the Divine Realm a short time. If I'd heard of your name, that'd be strange.
"I've heard, of course I've heard. Supreme Power, you're so famous in the Divine Realm."
Tang Rao wanted to flatter but ended up stepping on his own foot.
"I, Supreme Power, have disappeared from the Divine Realm for hundreds of thousands of years, and you've known of my existence for a long time?"
Huh?
Disappeared for hundreds of thousands of years?
But people like Li Zhentong probably didn't know of the Supreme Power's existence, so it was preposterous for a kid like Tang Rao to pretend otherwise.
"Oh, I probably remember wrong then."
Tang Rao smiled awkwardly.
"Supreme Power, let me first take you inside. If you like it, you can even build one like it later."
To alleviate the awkwardness, Tang Rao proactively changed the subject.
"I've looked. Since Zijing City is so large, when it's finished, I'll just choose a place to stay, it won't be a problem."
The Supreme Power didn't want to see inside; the one embarrassed was Tang Rao.
"Um, if you're bored, can I ask you a question?"
The matter of the Holy Mother Kaishan, Tang Rao had to clarify first.
"Do you know what the Holy Mother Kaishan is?"
Such an exalted name, Tang Rao felt its sanctity hearing it, let alone saying it.
But the Supreme Power was different.
Tang Rao saw a look of disdain on the Supreme Power's face.
"You mean the day after tomorrow?"
The Supreme Power actually knew the specific time, so he must be paying attention to this matter. Asking the Supreme Power would give Tang Rao some insight for tomorrow.
"The Holy Mother was a term of respect for her at the time. Now, the current Holy Mother in the Divine Realm isn't respected as much as before. The Holy Mother you mentioned, I once met her, she's beautiful but has a bad temper, so if you plan to attend, be very careful."
The Supreme Power described the Holy Mother in such a dreadful way, could there be untold secrets between them?
"Supreme Power, you and this Holy Mother don't have a simple relationship, do you?"
Tang Rao's question left the Supreme Power speechless.
"No, how could it be? How could I have known that fierce woman?"
The more he denied, the more the Supreme Power felt guilty, which, in turn, proved that there must be something between them.
"Oh, then when I go the day after tomorrow, could you possibly help me with a favor?"
"No way!"
The Supreme Power refused outright.
"I offer you a place to stay, yet you won't even help me with this little favor. Forget it, I get it now."
Tang Rao made up his mind.
Tomorrow when he arrives, Tang Rao would just shout that he's friends with the Supreme Power, and if anyone wants to know about him, they should come to Tang Rao.
