Shao Feng was momentarily speechless.
Alright, Yan Hua had indeed never said that.
Yue Zhi Yin tilted his head back, looking at the sky and whistling.
Qi Yu stared at them intently, her gaze chilling.
Finally, it was Yue Zhi Yin who couldn't withstand the pressure and handed over the key to the North Sea Treasure Vault ahead of time.
Seeing this, Shao Feng also gave up struggling and handed over the key to the South Sea Treasure Vault.
Both treasure vaults were now in their possession.
Si Qing handed the key to the South Sea Treasure Vault to Qi Yu, then grabbed her and ran out excitedly, "Let's go, let's go, let's go and see, I wonder if there's anything fun inside the treasure vault."
"Okay, let's go to the South Sea first, then the North Sea," Qi Yu said, as if embarking on an adventure, pulling Si Qing along as they ran.
Shao Feng watched the backs of the siblings as they sped away, a wave of dizziness washing over him. After a while, he turned to An Nuo and asked, "An Nuo, I have a feeling."
"What feeling?" An Nuo asked curiously.
"I have a feeling that the items in the South Sea Treasure Vault might not make it to next spring. They'll likely be packed up and taken away by Qi Yu," Shao Feng lamented. "What a shame, all the gold I've saved for so long."
An Nuo, however, had a different opinion. "I don't think so. Firstly, Qi Yu is a sensible child. Secondly, Qi Yu is much better at making money than you are. If you look at your treasure vault again next year, your gold will at least double."
"..." Shao Feng heard this and thought carefully about past events, finally nodding in agreement.
Qi Yu, that brat, was indeed excellent, especially when it came to making money. If this child had been born as a monarch of a kingdom in the human world, she would undoubtedly be a diligent and benevolent ruler, leading a prosperous nation.
Furthermore, her greedy nature actually suited the characteristics of a dragon.
An Nuo casually patted Shao Feng's shoulder. "I think you shouldn't focus all your attention on Qi Yu. After all, Qi Yu has always been outstanding. I think you should focus on Si Qing."
"Why?" Shao Feng looked confused.
The others also perked up their ears.
"Look at Si Qing, how sweet he talks," An Nuo said, counting on her fingers. "He's always asking if I'm hungry or tired, or if I want him to massage my back. Even though he's my son, he speaks so sweetly, so obedient and cute. Unlike you, who is always so direct and never says a comforting word."
Although An Nuo complained like this, she knew very well in her heart that Shao Feng loved her.
Shao Feng pouted. After being teased by his wife, he decided to seek advice from his son that evening on how to become a bit more "green tea" like.
Meanwhile, at the South Sea Treasure Vault.
After Qi Yu and Si Qing opened the door with the keys, they were already exploring inside.
The South Sea Treasure Vault was enormous, occupying almost half of the South Sea Dragon Palace.
Of course, the area mentioned here referred to the bottommost level of the South Sea Dragon Palace, somewhat akin to an underground warehouse in the human world.
It was primarily located in the rock layer beneath the dragon palace floor.
Because the deeper one went underwater, the colder it became, the temperature inside the treasure vault was extremely low. Frost had formed on the walls, and there were many magic formations inscribed around the perimeter to prevent damage and theft.
Qi Yu walked in and first scouted around. She discovered that most of the treasure vault contained gold, a smaller portion was jewelry, and the rest were magical artifacts.
Although the number of magical artifacts didn't seem very large, it had to be admitted that each one was an ancient artifact of immense value. The reason they were stored here, besides their preciousness, was likely because these artifacts had long since lost their owners, and no one in the Three Realms was worthy of them.
Therefore, these artifacts were stored in the treasure vault.
She wondered when they would be able to be used again.
While Qi Yu was looking at the magical artifacts, Si Qing was counting the jewelry beside her.
He himself wasn't particularly interested in these external possessions. Otherwise, as a God of War, he wouldn't have had a single spoil of war.
Thus, although the two were browsing together, their purposes were completely different. One was purely appreciating, the other was merely glancing.
Qi Yu selected a small portion of the jewelry and gold, placed it in the center of her palm, and conjured flames.
The fierce flames burned, melting the pile of gems and jewelry together, gradually separating them into rings.
Forming circles of different sizes.
Then, they split from three into four, and finally from four into eight.
When the flames in her palm extinguished, ten golden bracelets adorned with gems had been formed.
Si Qing looked over curiously, "Sister, what are you doing?"
