Chapter 1246
Money!
Perhaps for the Chu Family, the most important thing at the moment was money.
After hiding in the dark crypt for so many years, the Chu Family had been using up their savings.
Tens of thousands of people, just eating and drinking every day was a huge expense!
In an ordinary house in Eastern City, Henry sat by the bed, pushed open the wooden window in
front of him and looked at the night sky.
The crescent moon was hanging in the air, surrounded by darkness.
"Why are there sun and moon here? And the sustained time is the same as the reflection of the
outside world. If Future was here, she should be able to exin it clearly."
The images of his brothers appeared in Henry''s mind.
"I hope you are all right. This is a troubled world. Unless you quitpletely, no one can escape."
The night was very quiet. asionally, a roar from a demonic beast would ring out from outside the
city. This roar would suddenly wake some of the ordinary people that had already fallen asleep,
causing them to break out in cold sweat on their backs.
In the City Lord''s Mansion.
Colver Family leader, Knox, stood in the yard with his hands behind his back as he looked into the
starry sky.
"There''s going to be a storm. Does everyone in the city know that the demonic beasts are about to
encircle the city?"
"City Lord, most of the people have already known it. ording to the guard, many adventurers and
the moles who join the team of the demonic beast are rushing to the city."
"Open the city gates tomorrow. Along the way, send out letters to ask the other six cities for help.
The demonic beasts are getting fiercer and fiercer each time they encircle the city. This time around,
just our Eastern City alone will not be able to stop them."
With a wave of his arm, a ck scale appeared in Knox''s hand. It was the one Henry saw in the
Treasure Pavilion this afternoon.
Knox stared at the scales in his hand and muttered, "This Recluse World has existed for so long
and has always been searching, but it has never been able to find the source of that energy.
Where exactly could that thing be? The rate at which monsters mutate is getting faster and faster.
It''s about to take it, but it can''t hold on any longer. Once the lie is revealed, the entire world will be in
chaos..."
At this point, a voice rang out from the darkness again.
"City Lord, do you need someone to take a look at the Treasure Pavilion in the city?"
"There''s no need." Knox put away the scales in his hand and shook his head. "Just let someone
watch over that ce. Those who know how to appraise treasures are all talented people. Try your
best to befriend them. It''s best not to force such talented people to go to the other six cities if they
can stay in our Eastern City."

"I understand."
An entire night passed quietly.
The next morning.
Henry opened his eyes. As soon as he opened the door, he saw two young and beautiful girls in
long silk dresses standing respectfully in front of his room. One of them was the daughter of a
humble family, while the other was tall and beautiful.
"Sir, you''re awake."
When the two girls saw Henry, they bowed at the same time and spoke respectfully.
"This is..." Henry looked at the two girls in front of him in confusion.
"Haha!" A burst ofughter came. Trahern hugged the two plump beauties in his arms and walked
over. "Brother Syl, these are the two maids I carefully chose for you. They have undergone training
and have never been touched by men. How about that? Good enough? From today onwards, the
two of them are yours. You can do whatever you want."
Henry looked at the two girls.
When the two girls saw Henry looking at them, their faces were bashful and they were willing to be
tasted by Henry.
"This short one is called Lisamari, the tall one is called Cherlyn." Trahern came closer and looked at
the two girls. "Lisamari and Cherlyn, if you serve my brother Syl well, you''ll get a lot of benefits. If he
is not happy, humph, I''ll sell you all in the brothel. Do you understand?"
Lisamari and Cherlyn immediately revealed fearful expressions.
Henry waved his hand and said, "Brother Cui, you don''t have to do this. I have been ustomed to
being alone these years. I won''t befortable if you suddenly arrange two people to take care of
me."
Trahern didn''t answer Henry''s question, but stared at the two girls.
The two girls could not help but shiver. Then, they immediately put their hands on Henry''s arms.
"My lord, let''s help you wash up first." Cherlyn hurriedly said. "Little Sis, go fetch some water for
milord. I''ll help you change your clothes."
Lisamari nodded and went into the house obediently. She picked up the copper basin and went out
to fetch water.
Cherlyn, next to Henry, said in a pleading voice, "Sir, please help us. We don''t want to be sold. I
heard that someone dies there every night."
Henry nced at Cherlyn, and then nced into the house. "Then you go and help me to make the
bed."
"Thank you, sir." Cherlyn quickly nodded and happily rushed into the room to make Henry''s bed.
"Brother Syl, enjoy it." Trahern gave Henry a lewd look, then hugged the two women in his arms
and strode away.
In the morning, before Henry arrived at the Treasure Pavilion, there was already a long line in front
of the entrance. Some people who had just entered the city immediately came to line up when they
heard the news of the Treasure Pavilion.
Trahern stood in front of the door of the Treasure Pavilion, grinning from ear to ear. He was so
happy that he couldn''t close his mouth.
The Chu Family walked on the street and inquired about some information about the granary. They
knew that there must be some people keeping the grain, but they had not sold it yet. The Chu
Family had to take the time to think about the food problem.
When they passed by the entrance of the Treasure Pavilion and saw the long line, their faces turned
ugly.
"Jacindo, back then, you went to look for your master and asked him toe over. Now, you''ve
given him away for nothing," Cleytus said with a strange tone.
"Cleytus, don''t talk to me." Jacindo said discontentedly, "I don''t know who said that both of them
were good-for-nothings. As a result, one of them was a top-tier talent and the other knew how to
identify treasures."
"Jacindo, is this the way you talk to your senior brother?" Cleytus looked at him unhappily.
"Don''t put on airs in front of me." Jacindo didn''t buy Cleytus''s words at all. "Your talent is mediocre,
you just started practising two years before me. What do you have to be proud of in front of me?"
On the other side, Kensuke saw that the two were about to quarrel, so he immediately waved his
hand and said, "Okay, both of you should stop talking! You two have the time to fight here, so it''s
better to think about the granary!"
After Kensuke finished, he looked at the Treasure Pavilion unwillingly. This was a cash cow. For the
current Chu Family, it could save lives.
Eurydice looked at the Treasure Pavilion, biting her lip with her pearly white teeth. "Senior Brother,
why don''t I try and bring him back?"
"There''s no need," said Jacindo directly. "Do we really have to rely on him? Let''s go and look for the
granary!"
In front of the gate of the Treasure Pavilion, there was a hubbub of voices.
Trahern saw the people of the Chu Family passing by and said, "Aren''t these the people of the Chu
Family? Come on, you''re all old acquaintances. We were able to open the Treasure Pavilion
because of you. If you have any treasures to identify, you''ll get a fifty percent discount. We will only
charge you five gold coins. How about that? Isn''t it cheap?"
Trahern''s words were particrly harsh to the Chu Family.
