Chapter 1880

Tan Zhiqing couldn't help but smile faintly.

Tan Ming and Guo Tianyou both turned to look at her.

"See?" Tan Zhiqing said to Tan Ming, "Your little empire isn't that impressive. Don't think just because you made me head of the Babaozhai Society I'll be grateful—I'm not even interested in the Babaozhai Society."

Tan Ming lowered his head slightly, embarrassed.

He didn't know how to respond.

Tan Zhiqing was clearly siding with Su Yang.

"Alright, Chen Zhanglao, let's cut the formalities!" Tan Zhiqing sat up straight, her tone serious. "We all want you to take the position of Baozhaifu Society."

Su Yang asked, "Can you explain why?"

Tan Zhiqing replied, "Our top experts are running out."

Su Yang silently turned his head and looked at Guo Tianyou.

"That's right—it's me!" Guo Tianyou nodded. "I can leave now."

"That serious?"

On Guo Tianyou's face, Su Yang saw no regret or reluctance.

Facing death, Guo Tianyou was astonishingly calm.

It was as if he were talking about someone else's death.

"Life's limit is unavoidable for everyone!" Guo Tianyou smiled. "Before I die, seeing the Babaozhai Society win, I have no regrets."

Tan Ming whispered, "The Grand Elder had little time left anyway. This battle dealt him severe injuries—his body is completely broken."

Tan Ming's voice carried unmistakable sorrow.

This was the emotion a normal person should have.

"So you want me to fill the gap?"

Guo Tianyou said, "Right now, you're the most suitable person in the entire Babaozhai Society."

Su Yang said directly, "I have no interest in power."

Tan Zhiqing said, "Just hold the title. You don't have to manage anything."

Su Yang was slightly tempted.

"Is there a reward?"

"There is!" Tan Zhiqing nodded. "Just holding the title is enough."

"I need time to think."

"Plus one God-Rank High-Grade beast egg!"

This reward wasn't bad.

Su Yang didn't really need it, but giving it to Liu Mengyun, Xia Na, or Sovereign Jiazi would be fine.

They're still young—even without Su Yang's Forced Contract Scroll for Familiars, they have enough strength to slowly raise a God-Rank High-Grade familiar.

"Let me be clear—I won't manage anything inside the Babaozhai Society, and I may be gone often… If the Babaozhai Society runs into trouble, I'll step in. But if the enemy's too strong, I won't die for the Babaozhai Society!"

"Agreed!" Tan Ming was about to speak, but Tan Zhiqing cut him off. "I accept your terms."

Su Yang smiled—he hadn't expected Tan Zhiqing to agree so quickly.

It made him feel awkward about asking for anything more.

Tan Zhiqing extended her hand toward Su Yang. "Deal?"

"Deal!"

Su Yang took Tan Zhiqing's hand.

Though she looked delicate, her grip was surprisingly strong.

Feeling Tan Zhiqing was generous, Su Yang said, "By the way, do any of you want someone resurrected? As long as the body hasn't been dead more than three days and remains intact, I might be able to help!"

"What?"

Tan Zhiqing, Tan Ming, and Guo Tianyou all stood up at once.

"Why such a reaction?"

"Chen Feng—your familiar has a resurrection skill?"

"Yes!"

Tan Zhiqing exclaimed excitedly, "Then why didn't you say so earlier?"

"I just unlocked the skill today!" Su Yang explained. "My familiar was drained on the battlefield and only just recovered a little—it should barely work now!"

Tan Zhiqing asked quietly, "Are there any restrictions?"

"The body must remain mostly intact, and death must not exceed one day."

"If resurrecting someone of equal rank, my familiar needs thirty days' rest after each use. If the target is weaker, it can resurrect a few more."

This was a lie.

In truth, Yao Guang only needed ten days' rest…

Tan Zhiqing asked, "Can your familiar only resurrect God-Rank Low-Grade beast masters?"

"Actually, God-Rank Mid-Grade works too."

"What? Even cross-rank resurrection?"

"No… it just broke through to God-Rank Mid-Grade!" Su Yang rubbed his nose. "That means I can only resurrect one."

"What if the body is frozen?"

"Only if the soul can be frozen too."

"Then save one first!"

Tan Zhiqing thought for a moment, then quickly stepped out of the tent.

Not long after, she walked in carrying a corpse.

Su Yang glanced at it—it was Yun Tianyin.

"Save him first!"

It took two days for the battlefield to be fully cleared.

The forces from Baozhai and Shenlongshang Alliance left with perfect mutual understanding.

This war, which engulfed two major powers of the Central Region, ended at an astonishing speed.

A thousand li away, atop the clouds, two black-robed figures silently watched the two factions withdraw.

"Is it over already?"

"It should be over!"

"Neither side seems to have suffered heavy losses!"

"Both held back, but Shenlongshang Alliance likely suffered more."

"The Demon Clan isn't easy to provoke!"

"Do you think Baozhai is easy to provoke?"

"That Chen Feng is incredibly strong—he doesn't seem like someone who just broke through to God-Rank High-Grade!"

"Perhaps Chen Feng had already broken through to God-Rank High-Grade long ago; Baozhai's old schemers set a trap for the Demon Clan, luring them in on purpose!"

"Hard to say!"

"The only good news is that both Baozhai and Shenlongshang Alliance have been weakened and won't recover quickly."

"That's true!"

"…"

At that moment, the retreating Su Yang turned around and gazed toward the direction where the two black-robed figures hid…

"Did he see us?"

"Of course he spotted us—why else would he be looking only this way?"

"Then let's go! I don't want to clash with Baozhai!"

"You just don't want to fight that Chen Feng, don't you?"

"…"

"What are you looking at?"

Liu Mengyun asked Su Yang.

Su Yang replied: "Someone is spying on us, but they don't seem hostile."

The two opponents are God-Rank High-Grade experts, but they're probably not from Shenlongshang Alliance.

"Oh!"
