Chapter 1628: A Matter of Attitude

"I'm… extremely poor!"

Hearing Xiao Fan say this, the Demon Emperor and the leaders of the Demon Race felt their faces twitch.

This guy had just extorted 10 trillion Top-Grade Spirit Stones.

He calls this poor?

What a joke.

However, neither the Demon Emperor nor the leaders of the Demon Race dared to object, and they all agreed in unison.

This matter had originally been within their expectations.

It was just that the amount Xiao Fan asked for was a bit large.

Xiao Fan nodded in satisfaction, then looked at the Ancestor of the Zhao Family and the Head of the Zhao Family.

The Ancestor of the Zhao Family and the Head of the Zhao Family wore smug smiles on their faces.

They thought that Xiao Fan's words were directed at the Demon and Monster Races!

But… something seemed wrong.

Why did Xiao Fan keep staring at them?

Staring without blinking?

What did this mean?

"Um… Your Majesty, what do you mean?" the Ancestor of the Zhao Family asked tentatively.

He couldn't understand what Xiao Fan meant by looking at him like that.

It wasn't like there were flowers on his face.

"Hehehe… didn't I just say it? I've been very poor lately, so send me some resources later!" Xiao Fan said cheerfully.

The Ancestor of the Zhao Family: "…"

The Head of the Zhao Family: "…"

This? Was Xiao Fan short on Spirit Stones?

He had casually given the Zhao family hundreds of billions of Top-Grade Spirit Stones earlier.

Moreover… the Human Race treasury in Youming Prefecture really didn't have many resources.

Xiao Fan had personally checked it before and taken most of them.

The Ancestor of the Zhao Family and the Head of the Zhao Family suddenly realized something was wrong.

The Zhao family had become the new royal family.

Wouldn't the Zhao family's resources then become the royal family's resources?

Then… wouldn't 90% of the resources in the Zhao family's treasury have to be given to Xiao Fan?

Although Xiao Fan hadn't stated it explicitly, that was clearly what he meant!

If it were before, the Zhao family would have been very poor.

But now, the Zhao family's resources were not poor at all; they were all given by Xiao Fan.

However, the Ancestor of the Zhao Family and the Head of the Zhao Family were confused again.

It was all given by Xiao Fan… why did he want it back? What kind of logic was that?

"As you command!" Even though he was complaining internally, the Ancestor of the Zhao Family agreed immediately.

Just give it. Maybe Your Majesty was just putting on a show.

That must be it…

They had no idea. Xiao Fan had only discovered later that Lier had the Desolate Ancient Sacred Body.

If he had known earlier that his son consumed so many Spirit Stones, how could he have given the Zhao family so many?!

"Alright… you may all withdraw. Send the Spirit Stones over in three days. I will set off and leave in three days!" Xiao Fan said cheerfully.

So soon?

The Demon Emperor and the leaders of the Demon Race were originally very unhappy.

But hearing that Xiao Fan was leaving… they were happy again.

Actually, looking at it now, Youming Prefecture hadn't changed much compared to before.

It was nothing more than not being able to kill the Human Race, and allowing the Human Race to move freely in public areas.

The control of their races was still in their hands.

Everyone agreed and left… Only the Ancestor of the Zhao Family, the Head of the Zhao Family, and Xiao Fan remained in the palace.

"Um… Your Majesty, are you leaving in such a hurry?" the Ancestor of the Zhao Family asked with concern.

With Xiao Fan leaving so quickly, the Human Race would lose its deterrent, and he was worried that the Demon and Monster Races would make things difficult for them.

"Yes, there are still things to take care of."

Seeming to see through the Ancestor of the Zhao Family's worry, Xiao Fan smiled: "Don't worry, it won't be long before I come back again. I won't let anything happen here."

"This… thank you, Your Majesty!" the Ancestor of the Zhao Family bowed respectfully.

Xiao Fan smiled and prepared to leave…

"Um, Your Majesty, wait…" the Ancestor of the Zhao Family called out to Xiao Fan again.

"Anything else?" Xiao Fan asked, surprised.

"Um… Your Majesty, regarding the matter of giving you 90% of the treasury resources… um… are we really giving it?" the Ancestor of the Zhao Family asked in a low voice, with a skeptical tone.

Xiao Fan was stunned, and immediately understood what the Ancestor of the Zhao Family meant.

This old guy didn't want to give the resources!

He definitely felt embarrassed to ask for the Spirit Stones Xiao Fan had already given back.

That was why he had announced that the Zhao family would become the new royal family.

So he wanted the Zhao family to bleed resources together.

As a result, this old thing! He was too stingy!

"Ahem… yes, I am not short of Spirit Stones, but… this is a matter of attitude, do you understand?" Xiao Fan coughed dryly and said meaningfully.

"Understood… Your Majesty, I understand everything. Don't worry!" The Ancestor of the Zhao Family suddenly realized and agreed quickly.

Xiao Fan's words were very clear. This was a matter of attitude!

The Demon and Monster Races had both agreed. The Zhao family wasn't willing? What a joke! Wouldn't that make Xiao Fan lose face?

"That's good then." Xiao Fan nodded and turned to leave.

For his son… this was the only way!

Xiao Fan just regretted that the resources inside the star chart could not be taken out! Otherwise, he wouldn't have had to be like this!

Xiao Fan told Zhao Yanfu and Chiyue Lianshang the news that he would be leaving in three days.

Although Zhao Yanfu was a bit reluctant, she still wanted to be with Xiao Fan.

Chiyue Lianshang's expression changed…

"What's wrong? Are you not feeling well?" Xiao Fan asked, looking at Chiyue Lianshang.

"Um… no…" Chiyue Lianshang shook her head.

She was thinking about how to explain things to Lan Zhanque.
