Chapter 422: I Want to Be a Good Man

At this moment, Han Jue's conscious phantom looked at the distant, chaotic area, falling into complete silence.

Just moments ago, hundreds of massive giant pythons appeared within the Secret Realm, coiling atop a spirit mountain, each reaching nearly a thousand meters in length.

Judging from their Bloodline fluctuations, they had clearly evolved continuously from snake species like the Bodhi Treasure Snake.

These giant pythons were not weak, and a few of them had even reached a level comparable to the Core Formation Realm.

However, Yang Fan found it troublesome and directly had an intelligent gundam fire an air cannon.

Boom!

The terrifying energy instantly swept across, turning the hundreds of giant pythons into blood mists on the spot.

But at the same time, that spirit mountain was also directly leveled by this single strike.

The massive amount of Spirit Plants and precious medicines originally growing around it were also entirely destroyed by the terrifying shockwave.

Looking at this scene before him, Han Jue's heart was bleeding.

"Are these direct descendants of the Five Great Families… this poor?"

Seeing the heartbroken expressions of several people, Yang Fan couldn't help but massage his temples.

He truly couldn't understand it somewhat.

Aren't they just some Spirit Plants?

Is it worth feeling this heartbroken?

At this moment, Lu Wan stepped forward.

"Everyone, why don't we let the Intelligent Life take charge of the command from now on?"

"These war weapons are indeed too strong; if we continue to use them for land reclamation, the damage to the Secret Realm environment will be extremely severe."

"From now on, we should still let believers cooperate with Alien Gatherers to conduct exploration, and only consider deploying war weapons when encountering powerful living beings that cannot be resolved."

Hearing this, Han Jue and the others instantly felt a huge sense of relief.

"That's right, President Lu is right!"

Han Jue hurriedly nodded.

"Brother Yang, the combat power of your big guy is indeed unquestionable, but when it comes to land reclamation, we still need to be professional!"

"This Earth-grade Secret Realm will be an important industry for the Constellation Group in the future, and we can't let you bulldoze it all the way like this."

"Professional matters should still be left to professional people."

Speaking of this, Han Jue hurriedly walked forward and patted Yang Fan on the shoulder.

"Brother Yang, next you can just sit back and comfortably collect your dividends."

The corners of Yang Fan's mouth twitched slightly; he naturally heard the meaning behind Han Jue's words.

This was looking down on his inability to reclaim land.

But thinking about the scene just now, Yang Fan could only nod helplessly, "Very well."

After all, he originally just wanted to show his sincerity.

Now it seemed the effect had also been achieved.

…

Under the arrangements of several people, Yang Fan teleported all the intelligent gundams back to his own Divine Kingdom.

Leaving behind only five billion Second-class Intelligent Life and corresponding Intelligent Weapons to be responsible for the subsequent exploration work.

As for the person in charge of commanding this land reclamation, it was changed to Yang Er.

As an Intelligent Life under Yang Fan, Yang Er was naturally incomparably familiar with such resource extraction and Secret Realm exploration work.

At the same time, Han Jue and the others also successively transferred Intelligent Life from their respective Divine Kingdoms.

A large number of Alien Gatherers, resource identification robots, and data-recording robots began to enter the Secret Realm.

The originally chaotic land reclamation work quickly entered an orderly state.

After arranging everything, the consciousness of several people also successively withdrew from the Secret Realm.

…

In the real world, Yang Fan slowly opened his eyes.

Coming into view was Lu Wan's incomparably serious and pretty Face.

"What's wrong, Wife Wan?"

Yang Fan asked with some doubt.

"Husband, why don't… I still transfer those one hundred trillion Divinity Points to you!"

Lu Wan said suddenly and seriously.

"???"

Yang Fan was stunned for a moment, not reacting for a while.

"What's wrong? Wan'er, why did you suddenly say that?"

Lu Wan hesitated for a moment, then whispered:

"Husband, what your Divine Kingdom is mainly developing right now is the Mechanical Path, and the consumption is truly too great."

"And…"

Speaking of this, her complexion turned slightly red.

"And Husband, you seem… a little bit extravagant and wasteful."

"I'm afraid you won't have enough Divinity Points in the future."

After witnessing Yang Fan's grand army in the Secret Realm, Lu Wan felt both shocked and somewhat worried in her heart.

She could certainly tell the strength of Yang Fan's Divine Kingdom.

Those intelligent gundams—she had long since had her own Intelligent Life conduct a detailed analysis of them.

Whether it was the external armor or the internal core structure, they all adopted extremely precious alloy Materials.

Not to mention the cultivation and research costs of the Intelligent Life involved, as well as the construction expenses of the complete production line.

Solely discussing the material cost of a single intelligent gundam itself, it was already close to a hundred Divinity Points.

One hundred thousand intelligent gundams—the material expenses alone were an extremely terrifying figure.

And this was only the most basic part of it.

As a president managing numerous enterprises in the real world, Lu Wan was very clear about the development model of Mechanical deities.

Although the Mechanical Path was powerful, it was also one of the most resource-burning paths.

To want to make money relying on the Mechanical Path, the core consisted of four words—scale effect.

Only by forming a massive production system, manufacturing in large quantities, and selling in large quantities could costs be diluted and profitability achieved.

But how long has it been since Yang Fan broke through to a deity?

Although the Yang Group was developing rapidly, it had just started after all.

Whether it was market channels or commercial reputation, they were far from sufficient to support profitability.

What's more, a mere one hundred thousand war weapons could not be considered scale at all for a true Mechanical industry.

In Lu Wan's view, Yang Fan was currently a typical example of enormous investment with a very long way to go before breaking even.

Therefore, she was worried that Yang Fan would stubbornly hold on and develop his Divine Kingdom alone for the sake of so-called Face.

"Husband, I know you don't want to rely on anyone."

"But we are already husband and wife."

"What's mine is yours."

Lu Wan said softly.

"These Divinity Points placed with me have no suitable equity investment for the time being, and are just a number."

"But if they can help your Divine Kingdom develop, that will be the maximization of value."

"Back then, my mother gave you these resources originally to provide you with a guarantee."

"You really don't need to stubbornly hold on for the sake of Face."

"When you need them, just take them and use them."

Speaking of this, Lu Wan looked at Yang Fan, her eyes full of sincerity.

She was truly afraid that Yang Fan would stubbornly hold on despite lacking resources for the sake of so-called men's dignity.

Seeing Lu Wan's serious gaze, Yang Fan was silent for a moment, then stood up.

"Wan'er, rest assured."

"Your husband—my Divine Kingdom is developing very well right now."

"If there is truly a need, I won't stand on ceremony with you."

"After all, we are husband and wife."

After finishing his words, Yang Fan gently rubbed Lu Wan's head.

"Be good, I'm going upstairs first."

Afterwards, amidst Lu Wan's puzzled gaze, Yang Fan actually walked upstairs somewhat as if fleeing.

The door closed.

Yang Fan leaned against the back of the door, his expression somewhat complex.

After a moment, he couldn't help letting out a long sigh, "I'm truly not a human being…"

Clearly Lu Wan managed so many large enterprises in the real world, and her business ability was even stronger than Gu Le's.

On ordinary days, she looked incomparably shrewd, completely like a decisive female president.

As a result, once she encountered emotional problems… how could she trust herself so easily?

"Love is truly a graveyard."

Yang Fan shook his head.

"Fortunately I'm not a scumbag."

"Otherwise, with Wife Wan'er's personality, she'd probably be scammed miserably."

Thinking of this, Yang Fan secretly decided in his heart that he must treat his wife even better in the future.

Being a person, one shouldn't only think about taking advantage.

Men, after all, always have to have some conscience.

Once I laughed at the infatuated guests of this world, yet now I only lower my head for one person.

Treading shattered starry rivers to seek the Great Dao, looking back I only realize there is a returning home.

The youth of yesteryears was overly arrogant, conceited and dashing without questioning the heart.

Today I finally awaken to a thousand kinds of goodness; having someone accompany you surpasses heaven and earth.

The Divine Kingdom can expand hundreds of millions of miles, the star sea can battle the armies of ten thousand races.

Only with the beauty by my side, failing neither this life nor my beloved.

May I obtain the rest of my life amidst wind and rain, protecting her to laugh long until white hair.

Yang Fan took a deep breath and murmured: "I want to be a good man."

As for those little thoughts of the past…

Cough, cough.

Let past matters just pass by.
