The young Taoist looked at Lin Zhan and suddenly spoke:
"Right, brother, second grandpa asked you to go over. He said to secretly take the third brother of the Tie family away and then take care of those Yin Undead bastards."
Lin Zhan nodded and said, "I have that plan too. By the way, brother-in-law, besides bomb number 5, how many others do you have?"
The young Taoist took out his exclusive large ledger again and said:
"1, 2, 3, 4. Good bombs. That thing is cheap to produce and easy to make. Now even beginner formation masters use bombs 1, 2, and 3 for practice. Bomb 4 is the graduation exam."
As soon as he finished speaking, he seemed to have found the record.
He opened the portable mystic realm that Lin Zhan had "conned" from Great Britain and walked in.
In a short while, he took out eight large spatial bags and handed them to Lin Zhan, saying:
"Three bags of number 1, two bags of number 2, two bags of number 3, and one bag of number 4. They are all here, enough for you to use for two years."
Lin Zhan, looking bewildered, took the eight large spatial bags and gave the young Taoist a thumbs-up, saying:
"Brother-in-law, you're the best. You've accumulated so many of these things and still have resources to store in the mystic realm. Truly, your big brother here bows down to no one but you."
The young Taoist put away his ledger, stood up, and patted his small belly, saying:
"That's right, corruption is our specialty. Let me tell you, brother, give me another month, and I can expand the business to all the myriad races in the heavens."
"Oh, and by the way, brother, I plan to establish the dark web across all the myriad races. You should be prepared."
Lin Zhan nodded and said, "Alright, you handle this as you see fit. I'm going to see our mother and your sister-in-law, and then I have to go back to the Necromancer plane."
The young Taoist nodded and went with Lin Zhan to see Mother Lin and the rest of the Lin family women.
The few ancestors of Chang Ru did not want to disturb their descendants, so they had Lin Zhan set up a table under the tree of the Great Shang Xuan Niao, and the few of them began to eat and drink.
Two hours later, the Eight-Headed Serpent and the leader of the Nine-Headed Dragon Lizard, Old Nine, along with two foundation-level Nine-Headed Dragon Lizards and seven emperor-level Nine-Headed Dragon Lizards, came looking for them.
Lin Zhan looked at the leader of the Nine-Headed Dragon Lizard and said, "Old Nine, I won't say anything else. You brought all your top fighters here. Are you leaving your home unguarded?"
Old Nine shook his head and chuckled, "Our little cub is about to advance, and he's enough to guard the house. Besides, if the territory of the Great Shang Ancestral Court can still be endangered, then where else in the heavens would be safe?"
Lin Zhan could see that Old Nine truly wanted to join them, so he instructed the young Taoist to send some cultivation resources to the Nine-Headed Dragon Lizard clan.
Lin Zhan bid farewell to Zhang Lingxiu and the elders of the Lin family, then tore open the void with the ancestors and entered.
Upon reaching the space rift guard post at Changbai Mountain, they picked up Tie Lao San, Tie Pi, and coincidentally "coaxed" thirty thousand sappers from the Rat clan of the Five Earth Immortal families, and then returned to the Necromancer plane.
When they returned to the Great Shang camp on the Necromancer plane, Di Xin looked at Lin Zhan and the group behind him in utter confusion.
"Good heavens, these old fellows are usually only depicted in portraits hung on the walls during ancestral temple sacrifices. Why have they all been let out today?"
"Did the ancestors fall asleep and let these old guys break out together?"
Of course, these were just thoughts. Di Xin dared not say them aloud.
If these old fellows heard them, it would be his turn to be hung on the wall.
"Zi Xin pays his respects to all the ancestors."
The ancestors nodded. They truly didn't seem to favor Di Xin at all, a far cry from the enthusiasm they showed when meeting Daji.
These big shots were truly generous to the wives of the Great Shang descendants. Especially Lin Zhan's mother, who gave birth to a prodigy like Lin Zhan for the Great Shang, was greatly rewarded.
Actually, only the people of Great Shang would say it this way.
Outsiders would say that Xinlan, that girl, was capable! She gave birth to such a mischievous brat like Lin Zhan. Since he took charge, he hasn't stopped bringing benefits back home.
Don't believe me? Just look at the old folks in Great Shang, they're all swimming in wealth, able to drink Baihua Wine every day.
Lin Zhan said to Zhang Dabiao beside him, "Gather the foundation-level ancestors and the heads of all the legions for a meeting."
An hour later, Lin Zhan looked at the foundation-level ancestors in the conference room. Only Di Xin and Tie Lao Ba were left. The others had not come.
Before Lin Zhan could speak, a giant panda with a scar on its face emerged from a large space beside Lin Zhan.
It said to Tie Lao Ba, "Xiao Ba, where has Si Gouzi gone?"
Tie Lao Ba quickly replied, "Third brother, fourth brother is out on patrol with fifth, sixth, and seventh brothers, looking to see if they can discover any more emperor positions of the Undead race."
The scarred bear was Tie Lao San, Tie Pi.
"Hmm, at least Si Gouzi is doing something productive."
Then Tie Lao San pointed at Lin Zhan and said,
"Brother Lin is righteous. You must help him well. If nothing else, look at how fat our youngest has gotten. If our mother saw this, she'd be overjoyed."
"You immediately have Si Gouzi bring Xiao Wu and the others back. Leave the search for emperor positions to me and these Great Shang emperors."
Then he turned to Lin Zhan and said, "Brother, wait two minutes. When Si Gouzi returns, Third Brother will give you a surprise."
Lin Zhan was stunned. He happily agreed, but he couldn't help but think to himself: You bunch of giant pandas who never get enough, and you're going to give me a surprise? A scare would be more like it.
In less than two minutes, the Tie family brothers successively broke through the void and walked out.
"Third brother, third brother, third brother."
It was only when Tie Lao Si appeared that Tie Pi grabbed him by the neck.
"Si Gouzi, how can you be a brother? Look how skinny your younger brothers are. Only the youngest still has some substance."
Everyone looked bewildered at the burly giant pandas, then at Xiao Bao, who was so fat that his neck was as thick as his waist, and they couldn't help but gasp.
"Holy hell, what kind of aesthetic do these Tie family troublemakers have? They call this skinny?"
Lin Zhan whispered to Xiao Bao, "Bao, why does Third Brother always call Fourth Brother Si Gouzi?"
Xiao Bao chuckled and said, "Didn't Fourth Brother kill a Silver Dog that had just advanced to emperor? Then he bragged to Third Brother for a long time. Third Brother made a decision and named Fourth Brother Tie Gou. From then on, Third Brother always called Fourth Brother Si Gouzi."
Lin Zhan looked at Tie Lao Si, utterly bewildered. "This is truly a case of 'he who courts death will die.' Why did Fourth Brother brag so much? But Si Gouzi isn't a bad name, it sounds so friendly."
"Holy hell, then Sixth Brother killed a Death Knight this time, so he can't be called Tie Shi anymore, right?"
Tie Lao Liu heard the voice and turned to look at Lin Zhan with a resentful expression.
"Brother, are you proud that I'm called Tie Shi?"
