Chapter 97

"Say that again!" Zhong Kun, behaving like a spoiled brat, slammed a pile of chips on the table and shouted, "Nature Pavilion belongs to the Nature Department, that's only natural!"

The man opposite him was clearly drunk, his face flushed and his neck bulging as he shouted, "What do you mean by 'it's only natural'? When the beast tide comes, you'll all be crying for your parents! My property in the East District is now stuck with me!"

Upon hearing this, everyone cast pitying glances at him.

The inner city of the East District has been in an uproar these past two days.

Those established families remained calm and didn't rush to sell their properties, but those Star Wielders couldn't stand it.

They can't sell them even at half price!

They were all crying and wailing at home.

Some even leveraged their investments to buy in; at this point, they'd love to jump into the Void Sea.

Half price is already a huge loss, but if they can't sell them, they'll be left with nothing when the beast tide comes!

Of course, some people comforted them, saying that the Spirit Division would definitely intervene. At most, they would lose the house, but as long as the foundation of the land was not damaged, they could spend money to rebuild the house afterward.

However, they were still very panicked and kept cursing these people. "It's easy for you to talk when you're not the ones suffering!"

Although the person who was going to argue with Zhong Kun was pre-arranged, this person also knew exactly what everyone's emotions were like, and his words went straight to the heart of the matter.

Zhong Kun said, "Ignorant! Fool! Can't you do some research? Is my senior sister an ordinary person? If you had even read the recent reports on Divine Miracle, you wouldn't be so terrified!"

Wang Ruika chimed in at just the right moment, "Yes, my senior sister single-handedly manipulated 1,000 Star Plant! This was witnessed by all the Divine Miracle explorers!"

Upon hearing this, the bustling casino visibly fell silent for three seconds.

What's going on?

What is he saying?

How many?

Even if they are First Grade Star Plant, 1,000 of them are far too many.

Zhong Kun then said, "What? 1000 plants? Senior Sister has improved again! She can now manipulate 2000 Star Plant, and they're all at the Third Grade Peak!"

Wang Ruika's acting was a bit over the top. He widened his eyes and exclaimed, "My God! Senior Sister is amazing! No wonder she's a once-in-a-millennium Nature Department Heavenly Fortune Bearer!"

Those around couldn't hold back any longer and began whispering among themselves.

"What?"

Which Divine Miracle journey?

"The one around the Huaxia Realm Domain?"

"Isn't it just Divine Miracle at the Third Grade Realm?"

Where is the report?

Wow, there really is a report, and it's incredibly detailed!

Jiang Yuqing's report on the Divine Miracle once again came into play. Originally, it only spread within the Huaxia Realm Domain, but now even the Star Wielders of the Heavenly Palace have seen it.

Jiang Yuqing received a lot of Shock Points; he knew that things were progressing well for Zhong Kun and Wang Ruika.

The first step in the script is to let everyone know that Nature Department have the strength to withstand a beast tide.

Zhong Kun added, "So what are you afraid of! Just stay home and wait! Even if there's three waves of beasts, it won't be a problem!"

Wang Ruika also said, "What are you selling? Just waiting for the value to appreciate! I really envy you people who own property in the East District!"

Someone asked skeptically, "Really? Li Yang is only at the Peak Third Grade Realm, how could he possibly have the abilities of Grandmaster- level Beast Tamer?"

"I don't know why the Beast Taming Department Star Wielders are so weak, but we Nature Department Heavenly Fortune Bearer are just that domineering!" Zhong Kun said, puffing out his chest. Anyone who didn't know him would think he was Nature Department Heavenly Fortune Bearer.

Wang Ruika continued to escalate the atmosphere, "We're not bragging! If you don't believe us, you can go to the East District and watch the beast tide arrive!"

These words enlightened many people, with one saying, "I actually saw it during the day; there are many Star Plant in the outer city of the eastern district."

"... So it was planted by the Nature Department?"

Zhong Kun said, "This is only 1,000 plants. By the day after tomorrow, we'll have at least 2,000 Star Plant!"

"Really?"

"Just go and see for yourself..."

"If there were this many Star Plant, then the Nature Department could truly hold off this beast tide!"

"It's good that I was able to hold onto it! I won't have to sell my house at half price!"

Seeing that everyone believed him, Zhong Kun's expression turned serious, and he said solemnly, "Our department Nature Department confident in defeating the beast tide, but we are afraid that someone might deliberately interfere."

This is the second step in writing the script.

Nature Department are capable of fending off a beast tide, but what if it's not just a beast tide coming?

Wang Ruika, equally defiant, bluntly stated, "2000 Star Plant can withstand a beast tide, but they can't withstand Grandmaster!"

Honestly, only Wang Ruika would dare to say something like that.

Even with his ancestor protecting him, he still felt a chill run down his spine after speaking.

The bustling casino fell silent instantly because of those words.

There are some things that everyone knows, but few dare to say them out loud.

Will Marquis of Mirror Bamboo be enraged upon hearing Wang Ruika's words?

No, and it can't be done.

Jiang Yuqing's side is also making rapid progress. The media company supported by the Jiang Family is quite bold. As soon as they heard that Jiang Yuqing was going to break such a big news story, they quickly accepted it.

The person in charge even boldly suggested, "Let's just go and shoot a promotional video!"

Jiang Yuqing didn't dare to make a decision on her own, so she first asked Li Yang using her identity token.

Li Yang made a surprising statement. "We can film it. If they're not afraid, we can just do a live broadcast on the day the beast tide arrives."

Jiang Yuqing: "!!!"

[Jiang Yuqing's Shock Points increased by 3000 points.]

Li Yang is definitely more ruthless!

They actually came up with the idea of live streaming.

The key is that this method actually works.

No matter how much the Nature Department claims to be confident in defeating the beast tide, it's not as effective as letting everyone actually see it.

Once the live stream started, everything was truly laid bare under the Sun.

There's nothing shameful about the Nature Department; on the contrary, it can use this battle against the beast tide to boost its prestige.

So what if their cultivation level is low?

They can still defend Nature Pavilion through their strength!

Moreover, even Grandmaster cannot do anything under the live broadcast camera.

What Marquis of Mirror Bamboo wanted was a moral high ground.

Li Yang's actions have conveniently placed him on the moral high ground!

Chapter 97

Jiang Yuqing were about to discuss live streaming with the head of Myriad Forms Media.

Li Yang called out to him again, "Wait a minute."

Jiang Yuqing stared at the identity card and asked, "What?"

Li Yang hesitated for a moment, then said, "Remember to discuss the revenue sharing from the live stream properly."

Jiang Yuqing: "!"

[Jiang Yuqing's Shock Points +500 points.]

As expected of Li Yang.

She thinks things through meticulously, especially when it comes to money, where she leaves no stone unturned.

When Li Yang saw his silence, she knew that this guy hadn't thought about it at all.

If it weren't for the need to control Marquis of Mirror Bamboo, Li Yang would have definitely suggested that the various media companies in the Heavenly Palace hold a public bidding process, with the highest bidder winning the live broadcast rights.

Unfortunately, the situation is not right now... so we have no choice but to hand it all over to Myriad Forms Media.

After all, daring to take on this task is tantamount to making an enemy of Marquis of Mirror Bamboo.

Myriad Forms Media also took on a lot of risks.

Of course, Li Yang has always adhered to the principle of "even close sisters should keep clear accounts."

The due share must still be taken.

Real estate in the Heavenly Palace is so expensive, yet the Nature Department doesn't own a single property there!

If she doesn't find a way to earn money, her family will be forced to live on the streets of another city.

The script is basically finished.

Zhong Kun caused a stir at the casino, boosting the morale of the Nature Department in their fight against the beast tide.

Myriad Forms Media followed suit, releasing a cool promotional video.

The promotional video showcased a large number of Star Plant grown in the outer city of the East District.

Myriad Forms Media is quite professional; the shooting angle is really cool.

First, there's a wide panoramic view, then a rapid downward dive, followed by a close-up of Star Plant's face as they approach.

These mindless Astral Realm beings are always the uglier they are, the stronger they become.

The Thousand-Leaf Flower in front of me was incredibly ugly.

The close-up shots of the characters' faces startled the Star Wielders of the promotional video, with some even swearing.

After a close-up shot, there was a gliding shot, flying straight over the neatly arranged Thousand-Leaf Flower, capturing the magnificent momentum of soldiers about to go into battle.

The promotional video ended with a cliffhanger.

A few students from the Agronomy Department stood some distance away on the simple outer city wall.

They stood against the light, presenting tall, cool silhouettes.

No one showed their faces, but you could tell who they were just by looking at their figures.

The short three-minute promotional video has already gone viral in the Heavenly Palace.

Even the Agronomy Department students were thoroughly enjoying it.

Zhong Kun exclaimed, "Wow, how can I be so handsome!" He praised himself as he quickly posted the message to the "Loving Family Group.

Undoubtedly, he received another pile of red envelopes.

Mr. Zhong choked up as he watched, crying, "My son is so handsome! He's more successful than his father!" He continued to send out more red envelopes while crying.

Zhong Qian hasn't seen this message yet.

He's been having a really tough time lately.

During the Divine Miracle, Zhong Qian and Lin Zhaoxia were attacked by remnants of the Descending Star Cult. Although they managed to kill them, they were also seriously injured.

Logically speaking, Zhong Qian and Lin Zhaoxia also had quite a distinguished record in the Divine Miracle.

Unfortunately, they encountered an even more powerful and domineering group of the Nature Department users...

Compared to Li Yang's tearing apart of the Divine Miracle Core and his head-on confrontation with the Laws of Heaven and Earth... their achievement of counterattacking the remnants of the Descending Star Cult seems insignificant.

They didn't care about these empty titles, but they felt a great deal of regret.

If they hadn't been injured later on, they would definitely have participated in the final battle of the Divine Miracle.
