Xiao Xiao followed behind, holding a basketball with one hand, hiding behind Wu Heng.

Wu Heng walked into the living room and saw Slyther and Yuli sitting there drinking tea, his eyes also lighting up.

“Wu Heng!” Yuli shouted in surprise, leaping from a distance to give him a hug.

Wu Heng patted her back and said, “Acting like a kid, aren't you?”

“Who are you calling a kid! I've got your back in Black Stone Town,” Yuli said discontentedly, punching him lightly in the stomach.

“Stop fooling around,” Slyther interjected, and Yuli obediently walked back.

Wu Heng sat down on the sofa, and Robey brought over some tea.

“Were you sleeping upstairs?” Slyther asked.

“I just got back from outside. I've learned a new teleportation skill, no need to use the door,” Wu Heng casually explained.

Slyther and Yuli arrived earlier than he'd expected.

It looked like they boarded the train the day after he wrote to them.

“Was the journey smooth?” Wu Heng continued to ask.

Slyther took a sip of tea and replied, “Pretty smooth. Having that kind of ticket really saves a lot of time.”

“Keep the ticket thing a secret. If anyone asks, just say you took a boat,” Wu Heng instructed them.

“Don't worry, we understand the importance,” Slyther said with a nod, and Yuli did the same.

“Good,” Wu Heng nodded and took a sip from his cup.

“When will you take me to see the site?” Slyther continued.

Wu Heng glanced outside at the skies and responded, “Let's wait until tomorrow. The overall renovation I've left to the former president of Starflower, and the Money Cat portion I've assigned to you.”

Hearing the mention of the Starflower president.

Slyther raised her eyebrow, “Shanaela?”

“You've heard of her?” Wu Heng was curious.

“The entire pub is talking about her becoming an Elder,” Yuli hurriedly replied, then added with some astonishment, “No way, you let a racial Elder take charge of your renovations?”

“We have some history, and she has a lot of experience and is good at art, so she's pretty skilled at renovations,” Wu Heng explained.

Slyther nodded. She wasn't very familiar with the situation on Gold and Silver Island, and glancing outside, she said, “Then I'll take Yuli to the guild for accommodation first, and we can come here tomorrow morning.”

“Just stay at the Island Lord's Mansion. There are so many rooms.”

“It wouldn't look good. The guild isn't far from here, and it won't delay us coming over,” Slyther said.

Wu Heng thought for a moment and then said, “I've arranged dinner tonight here with Shanaela. It would be a good opportunity to discuss the site. Why not stay tonight and go to the guild tomorrow?”

Slyther hesitated, glanced at Yuli, and then nodded in agreement, “Okay, then prepare a room for us.”

“Mini, prepare a room for them,” Wu Heng instructed.

“Sure thing,” Mini and Robey went upstairs to get things ready.

Wu Heng and Slyther continued talking about Black Stone Town and the Yeko Kingdom.

Soon after, Mini and Robey came down having prepared the room.

Xiao Xiao stood at the door and said, “Let's go play basketball.”

The two looked at the people chatting in the living room and then followed her out to the courtyard, “How do you play this?”

“You need a hoop,” Xiao Xiao said, as Skeleton went upstairs to bring down the basketball hoop.

Then she demonstrated to the two how to play.

The three of them took turns throwing the basketball into the hoop.

Inside the hall, Yuli listened to their conversation for a while and felt it was uninteresting, so she quietly slipped out.

And then she joined the basketball shooting group.

At dusk.

All those who were out returned.

After dinner, they sat in the living room and discussed in detail the location and scale of the entire building.

When Shanaela finished introducing the scale of the entertainment city, Slyther's eyes also widened.

It seemed like they were going to fit an entire commercial street in there.

After the amazement, Slyther also talked about Money Cat's business direction and renovation requirements.

After discussing for a while.

The two agreed to visit the site the next day.

Mini said, “Master, the movie is ready.”

“Let's go watch a movie. You probably haven't seen a movie before, right?” Wu Heng stood up and said directly.

Slyther and Yuli also showed some excitement and followed him upstairs into the home theater.

Inside the home theater, the movie started.

Slyther and Yuli, like everyone else seeing it for the first time, were startled.

But once they were told it was just movie effects and nothing would crawl out of the screen.

They sat back down in their seats, half-doubtful, and continued watching the movie.

The big screen flickered with light and shadows, the plot advancing to its climax.

Slyther was engrossed, her gaze following the screen, when suddenly from the corner of her eye, she noticed that Wu Heng had disappeared from his original seat.

Having watched the movie many times before, he must have grown tired of it.

After hesitating in her mind, she looked at the others who were focused on the movie, then silently left her seat and walked out the door.

Pushing open the door, the warm air of the hallway hit her face.

Slyther took a deep breath and walked downstairs.

Just as she reached the staircase, a door on the side opened, and a hand suddenly reached out, grasping her wrist and swiftly pulling her into the room.

The door clicked shut.

Slyther was just about to make a move when a familiar figure pressed up against her.

The hot breath approached, followed by warm lips heavily pressing down on hers.

Slyther's eyes widened, her hands pressing against the other's chest as she turned her head away and said, “Are you crazy? There are so many people outside!”

“Then talk less and focus more,” Wu Heng said.

“I have to go back, what if Yuli comes out and finds out about this,” Slyther gently pushed him but didn't use much strength in her hands.

Wu Heng laughed and said, “The movie's running time is ample, I've been missing you already, don't you miss me?”

Slyther's expression faltered, and her gaze softened a great deal.

Wu Heng gently tilted her head back towards him and kissed her again; this time, Slyther didn't shy away. She wrapped her arms around his neck and began to reciprocate.

The clothes on her body were lifted up, and Slyther began to feel nervous again, “Stop it, really, it's not okay.”

“I'm keeping track of the time; you're going to stay at the association tomorrow, and we'll have fewer chances to see each other,” Wu Heng whispered.

Slyther let go of her hands, and her clothes were directly taken off.

Wu Heng looked at her voluptuous body, smiled, and said, “It's still so shy, curled up inside.”

Slyther gasped for breath somewhat hurriedly, “Then give it a couple of slaps.”

“I can't bear to,” Wu Heng lifted her up and placed her on the table beside them, removing the last piece of clothing, and then the two of them pressed together.

Intense panting filled the room, occasionally accompanied by a few pained moans.

Time passed bit by bit.

After a long and drawn-out moan, Slyther felt something was wrong and said with embarrassment and annoyance, “You're insane, what if I get pregnant?”

“Then we'll have the baby,” Wu Heng patted the roundness in front of him.

Slyther got somewhat angry, yet also felt a bit helpless.

She reached out to touch his face, “I'm not Wen Mansha; we can't expose our relationship.”

“I'll be more careful next time.”

“Mhm.”

The two of them quickly tidied up the scene, playfully dressing up in their clothes.

Then they sneaked out of the room.

Slyther returned to the movie room and continued to watch the rest of the movie with the others.

Wu Heng went back to rest in the bedroom.

The next day.

Shanaela, Slyther, and Yuli went together to the Entertainment City site.

Wu Heng lay on a recliner, looking at the report sent from the city hall.

The development of the small island was still quite fast, especially the houses on Gold and Silver Island, which were not worried about selling at all.

Looking at the sales volume, Wu Heng began to consider building residential buildings to increase the lodging capacity.

It should not be difficult to implement, as a group of Skeletons had previously been sent out to learn modern construction knowledge.

After such a long time, they should be sufficiently trained by now.

The only thing lacking was construction materials.

“Cement is made by burning limestone, right? Building a large Flame Furnace should do the trick.”

It should be less complex than a power plant.

When he gets back, he'll ask someone who's knowledgeable.

“Uncle, Lilith Leader is looking for you,” Xiao Xiao ran down and called out from a distance.

“Got it.” Wu Heng got up and walked towards the room.

As he reached the staircase and walked up with Xiao Xiao, he asked, “You were chatting with Lilith the whole morning?”

“No, we talked last night,” Xiao Xiao reached out, pulling his hand as they walked up.

“All night?” Wu Heng was surprised.

“Yeah, what's wrong?” Xiao Xiao retorted.

“Uh… nothing.”

What could he say, one was from the Blood Clan, the other a Ghost.

Talking all night seemed to be no problem.

Entering the radio room, Wu Heng sat down in front of the radio, and asked, “Lilith Leader, looking for me?”

“The directive from the headquarters for Gold and Silver Island has been sent out; I wanted to give you a heads-up.”

“What does it say?” Wu Heng curiously asked.

Lilith said, “The headquarters has decided to accuse the local Flag-bearer; the person will be taken back to headquarters for judgment, with the highest punishment being execution. If they flee, they'll issue a first-class arrest warrant.”

Wu Heng's eyebrows raised, “The association sure is powerful.”

“Let me finish. You should know if 'Saidu' learns about this, it would be easy to protect them. The Holy Court will not allow the loss of an 18th-level professional.”

Sure enough, the association also knew they couldn't kill the person.

A Leader wanting to protect someone was still not a problem.

“So what does the headquarters mean?” Wu Heng directly asked.

Lilith continued, “The headquarters wants a standard conviction, suggesting you owe the Church a favor, to temper the conflict between you two.”

Wu Heng's eyes narrowed, understanding the intention of the headquarters.

They wanted Wu Heng to alter the charge for the Church; as long as they didn't bite hard on the assassination of the local Flag-bearer, the crime wouldn't be as serious.

Giving the Church some face, and attempting to ease the tension between the two sides.

In fact, without stating it explicitly, Lilith's words also meant to protect Wu Heng.

If they kept pressing without letting go, the Holy Court would also keep a close watch on him.

“What about those who fought in the street?” Wu Heng asked next.

“That's a local matter for you, just fine them and be done with it,” Lilith directly said.
