【This area cannot use teleportation items, please leave this place.】
The teleportation talisman in Snow Moon's hand quickly burned away.
Snow Moon stared blankly at the Water Fox Secret Chamber.
Have I been exposed...?
The Thousand Tails was essentially disposing of her.
If that's truly the case, it's incredibly malicious...
Players who are killed can still revive, so she wasn't killed.
Instead, being imprisoned like this is truly a death sentence.
The operation of a prison for foreigners works the same way.
An area where you can't teleport, can't escape.
Being there for just a few hours is already torture for players.
Snow Moon had already walked around this place several times.
Indeed, there was absolutely no way out.
Unless the Yaoguai King forgot about her, Snow Moon's account could completely die a lonely death here.
Ugh...
I should have realized this!
The Yaoguai King can see the future!
Could it be a subtle warning? "I know you're a spy, now die like a good girl!"?
At this moment, Snow Moon was imagining the worst-case scenario.
This is bad...So, will Snow Moon's account be imprisoned for a thousand years from now on?
Ah a a a a a...!!!

"What a busy day."
Thousand Tails appeared again in the Grand Hall.
Today has involved receiving quite a number of people.
Voluntarily meeting the Heavenly Demon in Black was something the Thousand Tails was willing to do.
But after that, several others came.
After Snow Moon, there was yet another meeting with a Yaoguai King.
Today is extremely busy.
"My lord, the Centipede Yaoguai King has arrived."
A small rabbit hopped into the Grand Hall to announce.
"Let him in," the Thousand Tails Yaoguai King waved a hand.
No sooner had the words been spoken than countless centipedes began crawling through the main entrance of the Grand Hall.
Squirming, they filled the hall.
"Hic !!!" The little rabbit was so frightened it jumped onto the wall.
"Don't dirty my Grand Hall, Centipede Yaoguai King."
The Thousand Tails Yaoguai King could only sigh.
"Apologies, apologies."
The voice echoed throughout the Grand Hall, coming from all the centipedes.
The entire swarm gathered together slowly, forming the shape of a two-legged creature covered with centipedes of various sizes.Even the Thousand Tails Yaoguai King found it a bit disturbing.
However, she didn't hold it against him.
The Centipede Yaoguai King was a collective of centipedes like that.
The narrative has been illicitly obtained; should you discover it on Amazon, report the violation.
He was considered the most resilient among the Yaoguai Kings.
As long as one centipede remained alive, he could recover as if nothing had happened.
The Centipede Yaoguai King was also exceptionally cunning.
He never allowed all the centipedes to be in one place.
So even if the Demon God appeared now to hunt him down, there'd be no guarantee of a complete extermination.
Each centipede of the Yaoguai King, even when alone, possessed the destructive power of a Yaoguai General.
He was a formidable force of the Yaoguais.
One of the candidates for the Leader of the Yaoguai Kings.
If not for the Thousand Tails Yaoguai King's ability to foresee the future, he wouldn't have agreed to follow her.
The Thousand Tails had made the Yaoguais an overly generous "promise."
A sweet deal too big to refuse.
"I have prepared the exchange item."
The Thousand Tails took out a green gem, emitting an eerie aura.
With a wave of her hand, she handed it to the Centipede Yaoguai King.
Rustling.
Countless centipedes scuttled about.
Finally, from that "hand," he released a glass vial.
"It is done."
Inside, it contained a pale pink liquid.The Thousand Tails Yaoguai King made the glass vial float over to her hand.
After receiving the item, countless centipedes began to disperse.
They crawled out of the Grand Hall quickly and efficiently.
The Centipede Yaoguai King was a man of few words but incredibly effective in his actions.
"Your Excellence... There is someone else...!"
"Let them in." The Thousand Tails Yaoguai King didn't bother to listen to the end of the sentence.
This time, the person she had to meet was more tedious than the others.
A human merchant.
The rare treasures of the Yaoguais were numerous, making many envious.
The economy was still something that needed attention.
However, it was slightly unfortunate for this human.
If they had sent a foreigner, at least it would have been somewhat challenging for me.
But a local...
The Thousand Tails Yaoguai King's eyes slightly opened.
They would only to suffer the utmost disadvantage.
.
.
.
Snow Moon, in theory, was below the Grand Hall.
Incidentally, it was just the right distance for the system to signal.
【The innate charm of the Thousand Tails Yaoguai King is activating.】
【The innate Foresight of the Future is activating.】【The innate Bargaining Master of the Thousand Tails Yaoguai King is activating.】
Huh?
What's happening up there?
.
.
.
The next day.
The First World's press reported.
【Trade relations with the City of Thousand Tails have been successfully negotiated.】
【City of Thousand Tails, the city with the highest taxes for merchants in history? 100%!?】
【Items in the City of Thousand Tails: Extremely rare and precious!】
"Wh-Which person made that deal with the City of Thousand Tails?"
"What the hell is this...!? Sky-high taxes, annual tributes, support for the City of Thousand Tails if there's a war...!?"
"Why did you dare to sign!!?"
"Oh my god!!!!!"
.
.
.
Snow Moon absentmindedly looked up at the star-filled ceiling at the statue of the Water Fox Ancestor.
Um...
So I have to wait here for 3 days...?
Or if the Thousand Tails Yaoguai King really wants to eliminate me.
Am I done for!?---
At the DMG shareholders' party.
Anh Tuan was smiling awkwardly.
Damn it.
Out of topics to talk about.
In reality, Anh Tuan was a bit of a geek. He truly didn't know how to woo a girl.
Some time ago, after falling head over heels for Lady Lam, he began learning how to flirt and converse.
Typically, he would have already befriended the person of interest.
But the problem was that the person of interest had no intention of becoming friends!
Every word Anh Tuan said was met by Lady Lam with the most courteous responses possible!
"We've met several times, so we can say we know each other, right? I wonder if you have a free day to hang out together?"
"No."
What?
Usually, one would at least... give a tactful response.
Lady Lam really answered so abruptly.
What would happen to all his planned scenarios?
"I was wondering what Lady Lam likes to drink? I noticed you haven't touched any food or drink since you arrived."
"Lemon mineral water, Dang Thanh."
What?
Dang Thanh?"What brand is that?"
"T-the weather is nice, isn't it?"
"We can't see the sky in here."
Awkward silence. The uncomfortable aura was starting to rise.
Lady Lam was on high alert.
Not a single slip-up.
As she was conversing with Anh Tuan, she silently cursed Sword of Love.
"This idiot. Stop eating and come save me already!"
Munch munch munch.
Who knows how many chicken drumsticks he’d already eaten.
At this moment, Sword of Love finally glanced over at Lady Lam.
"Yo! Chief! The food here is really good!"
Ugh.
Guess there's no other choice.
"Yes, I'll be right there." Lady Lam "pretended" to smile as she responded to Sword of Love, even though she felt her blood vessels about to burst.
Tuan Anh was taken aback by Lady Lam's gentle tone.
Who was that guy?
As he looked over at Sword of Love, he saw him wriggling around as if he had caught a cold.
"Ugh."Please, don't call me that. It's so cringeworthy."
Stay calm.
"Why are you suddenly acting so ladylike? What's wrong?"
Stay calm...
"Here, have a chicken drumstick to calm down. It's deliciou- !!!!"
Sword of Love.
Stood still like a statue.
Lady Lam's face at this moment was more terrifying than the Phantom Demonic Form.
Gulped.
Seeing Anh Tuan behind her.
He understood the situation.
Sword of Love gently stepped over, draping his arm around her waist, softly pulling her close to him.
"Let's eat, darling, you haven't eaten anything since morning, and it makes me really worried."
His voice was slow and deliberate.
The words "darling" were sweet and soft.
What the heck? Is Sword of Love trying to woo the boss?
His gestures were gentle yet affectionate.
With one hand, he held her handbag gently so she could eat comfortably.
He understood his role very well.
With his charming face, Sword of Love truly seemed like he had just stepped out of a television drama.Lady Lam blushed slightly.
In her twenties, it was the first time someone called her "darling."
Truly, just changing the tone of this rogue's words made everything seem resolved.
