Transferring to another flying magical Law Artifact under guard, the contents of the Storage Bag had already been sorted. After listening to the report, Yue Qianchou realized that the valuable items were pitifully few. The total amount of Spirit Stone was less than 70 million high-grade Spirit Stones, of which the Storage Bag containing the treasure chest alone contained nearly 60 million. In other words, the total value of the other Storage Bag was less than 10 million.

Yue Qianchou was somewhat annoyed; it turned out there really weren't many wealthy people in the Cultivation World. Seeing Ziyi hiding in a corner, deep in thought and guarding the box, he went over and asked, "Which two countries are missing?"

Ziyi only then noticed his return and said somewhat embarrassedly, "There isn't one in Huaxia Country, but I just can't remember which country the last one is."

"Don't torture yourself if you can't remember," Yue Qianchou comforted him. In fact, he knew that while everyone might know the names of more than 300 countries, very few people could actually recite them all.

But one thing is certain: although the map of Huaxia Country is not in the box, the contents of this box were definitely not made by people from the Huaxia Cultivation World. It seems that we need to investigate which country among those foreign cultivators lost any important figures in this battle to find out. Ordinary people would not be able to carry such Storage Bag.

After putting the box away, Yue Qianchou returned to his flying magical Law Artifact and ordered the ship to set off, heading towards the Wu family, one of the Four Great Families.

After witnessing the departure of the four flying magical Law Artifact, each sect quickly relayed the news of Yue Qianchou's departure from the Cultivation Alliance back to their respective sects, and then went back to their own business. After all, the most important matter at the moment was still the war with Wuji Island. The only thing that concerned everyone was what the Daluo Sect would do next to Yue Qianchou; no sect would want over a thousand people to die in vain.

The Four Great Families had already received news of Yue Qianchou's impending arrival, and the four family heads gathered at the Wu family.

Since it was inconvenient for Yue Qianchou to teleport here via Utopia with Ziyi, he had no choice but to fly here obediently. When they were not far from the Wu family, they found a secluded mountain area, sent Ziyi away, temporarily sent the more than 400 team members back to Utopia, put away the four flying magical Law Artifact, and then collected some dry firewood and piled it up.

When Ziyi brought back two wild game that Yue Qianchou wanted to eat, she found that the flying Law Artifact and the person were gone. She asked in surprise, "Where did they go?"

Yue Qianchou took the two pheasants and went to a stream. He plucked them, gutted them, and washed them while telling the Ziyi who had followed him, "I'll send them away for now and call them back when needed! Otherwise, I'll have to pay them a huge sum of money every day, which is unbearable!"

After all, Ziyi has been out for so long, and her way of thinking about problems has become somewhat enlightened, and she is no longer as confused as before. After looking around, he wondered, "I was not far from here just now. Why didn't I notice that so many people were leaving?"

"They have their own ways of stealth, which are generally undetectable to ordinary people," Yue Qianchou casually replied.

This explanation is rather far-fetched; with Ziyi's cultivation level, it's impossible she wouldn't have noticed such a commotion. Ziyi's pretty face turned cold, and she asked somewhat displeasedly, "Yue Qianchou, are you hiding many things from me?"

"What could I possibly be hiding from you? And what good would it do me to hide it from you?" Yue Qianchou said without the slightest hint of deception.

Carrying two bare-chested pheasants, he walked to the prepared pile of dry firewood, pointed, and a fire was lit. He took out some iron skewers, skewered the pheasants, and roasted them over the fire. He then prepared a bunch of seasonings and slowly began to cook them. Ziyi, on the other hand, pouted and stood far away.

Yue Qianchou sat on a rock, meticulously tending to two roasted chickens with complete concentration, showcasing his grilling skills to the fullest. After a while, a rich aroma of meat filled the surroundings. Ziyi's nostrils flared, and she couldn't help but glance over from time to time.

Yue Qianchou smiled without saying a word until the two roasted pheasants turned golden brown, seven-tenths of the fat was gone, they were somewhat crisp, and the aroma lingered. Then he casually turned off the fire. Holding up the two roasted pheasants in his hand, he laughed and said, "Ziyi, come and have a taste. My cooking skills are top-notch. I guarantee you'll never forget it after you've eaten it."

Ziyi wanted to protest with silence, but sadly found that her mouth was full of saliva. After swallowing it with difficulty, she walked over casually, not even giving him a proper look, seemingly uninterested in the roasted pheasant.

"You little glutton, trying to pull this on me?" Yue Qianchou smiled, put one roasted chicken beside him, picked up the other roasted pheasant and took a bite, smacking his lips a few times, and mumbled repeatedly, "Delicious, delicious."

Ziyi turned her head and saw him tear off a layer of golden-brown, glistening pastry and put it in his mouth, then smack his lips, revealing a look of pure bliss. Without a word, Ziyi walked over, grabbed the skewer, pulled out the other one, and sat back-to-back with Yue Qianchou, opening her mouth to take a bite.

Yue Qianchou finished eating first, stood up, threw down what she was holding, and rinsed her hands with water to remove the grease. She turned around, hands behind her back, and watched the little glutton, who, disregarding all ladylike manners, grabbed her and began to devour her food. After she had finished eating to her heart's content, Yue Qianchou smiled and said, "Hold out your hands."

Ziyi stretched out her two palms in surprise. When she saw the oil stains on them, she stuck out her bright red little tongue cutely. Suddenly, a winding little water dragon swam over and spread between her slender fingers, helping her to remove the oil stains completely.

The feeling of being caressed by water was really comfortable, and she glanced at Yue Qianchou with some joy, only to hear Yue Qianchou laugh and say, "Pout your lips." Ziyi obediently did as she was told, and once again witnessed a small water jet coming over to help clean the oil off her mouth and face.

After finishing the meal, Ziyi's eyes widened as she said, "It's delicious! You can bake it for me again next time." Yue Qianchou nodded and smiled, "Okay! But we need to go to the Wu family first."

With all misunderstandings resolved, the two quickly flew towards the Wu family's location...

Yue Qianchou's visit to the Wu family this time was clandestine; he didn't openly pass through the crowded and conspicuous Hat Island. Instead, he casually alerted a guard on the outskirts of the Wu family and instructed him to inform Wu Sihai to come over.

Upon receiving the news, Wu Sihai was somewhat surprised, wondering why he was being so mysterious. However, he probably didn't want too many people to know about his arrival, and he cooperated by not alerting others, only bringing the heads of the other three families with him.

The group met in a deep forest outside the Wu family compound. The four family heads wanted to see the Rogue Cultivator of rogue cultivators Cultivation World, but they only found two of them. They were a little disappointed and didn't say much.

After exchanging pleasantries, Yue Qianchou smiled calmly and said, "I have no other business here this time. I just want to tell you all that I am going back to the Demon Ghost Domain. Last time, because I killed Wu Zhenggang, I promised to take Senior Wu Bao to meet my master. I would like to ask the Wu family to make arrangements now and ask Senior Wu Bao if he is free to go with me."

Ziyi was slightly taken aback. She only just learned of Yue Qianchou's plan. The thought of seeing Elder Bi again made her both nervous and excited.

The four family heads exchanged glances, all somewhat excited. After his initial excitement, Wu Sihai became worried and asked, "Yue Qianchou, I wonder if Wu Bao will face any danger after meeting the Old Ancestor? I'm worried about the Old Ancestor..."

He didn't finish his sentence, but everyone knew what he was worried about: he was afraid of angering the Old Ancestor, which could cost Wu Bao his life. Yue Qianchou shook his head and said, "There's no use worrying. You can't make this decision yourself. Why don't you invite the three Clan Elders of the Wu family together and let them discuss it?"

Wu Sihai nodded solemnly and said, "Wait a moment, I will go and invite the three Clan Elder immediately." After saying that, he quickly flew away.
