"Excellent. Jiufang Huang was able to offer such a treasure—this truly is a blessing for Sky City, a blessing for the Nine Heavens, and even a blessing for Genesis Heaven. The Jiufang Household really is a lucky star for my Sky City." I smiled. I had originally been thinking of taking out something as a return gift, but then, on second thought, realized I could not return this favor. That would be highly inappropriate. The Jiufang Household had given me this gift to protect their family. Since I represented Sky City in accepting it, that was equivalent to returning a gift to them. If I refused to accept it, that would be what truly frightened Jiufang Yu.

It seemed that the world still concealed divine objects I knew nothing about, things I had never even seen before—treasures no inferior to my Dao Extremity Space or Gourd Immortal City.

We could never be without Genesis Heaven's protection either..." Jiufang Yu was very skilled with words and showered me with another round of praise. He was completely different from that rough fellow Gu Longjun. He was unquestionably Jiufang
