Chapter 852 I Protect Myself
Boom~
The lightning snakes were wandering in the gray fog, and the Starry Floating City was suspended under the gray fog, as if the previous annihilation of the two tribes had not caused any impact at all.

Only the two holes left by the river of blood that ran through the floating city at that time are still being repaired with flashes of lightning.

You can still hear a hissing sound in the air, and recently you can even smell some ozone.

Although it has been a while since the incident, there are still some representative teams that occasionally go in and out of Xingyao, and even bring some economic benefits to Xingyao in disguise.

Especially for the people from the outer city, some benefits occasionally revealed by some passers-by can be enough to change their lives.

Moreover, after Xingyao changed its owner, because Tao Yu was born in the outer city, he could not completely change the current situation of the outer city.

But whether it is to win people's hearts or improve the external image, the income of the pioneers in the outer city has indeed increased a lot, coupled with the additional tax cuts that already exist.

Even the environment looks much better now. The cleanliness of the outer city on the wedding day is barely maintained...

zizi~
With a flash, Tao Yu's figure appeared in the master bedroom of Tao Mansion.

Tao Yu was married in a formal way, not marrying into the Sun family. With the appearance of the saintly teacher later, her status was clear.

Even though the Tao family was supported entirely by Tao Yu alone, and even if all the cousins ​​were included, the number of people was not large, but they still managed to quickly build a modular Tao Mansion in the floating city.

However, considering the safety of Tao's father and mother, he is temporarily arranged to live near the Sun family, in a separate courtyard, and under the protection of the Sun family.

At present, Tao Mansion still seems a little mini.

Since people from other cities can have children, if we find all the surviving relatives, we can form a big family.

But it is obvious that if they don't have enough strength to force their way into the floating city, it might harm them or cause some inner arrogance.

In this regard, Tao Yu just happened to find something for his parents to do, asking them to select some reliable relatives, and sometimes place them in some industries, mainly to play a supervisory role.

Now Tao Yu has risen, he is a disciple of the Saint, a disaster-level figure, and his wife is also a direct descendant of the Saint family, the fire-controlling family of the Xingyao civilization.

Just stomping your feet can make the star tremble three times.

With this kind of identity in mind, it can be said that anyone who has a little connection with the outer city will want to do everything they can to climb up!
Although Tao Yu specifically emphasized that one should not use his title to do evil, the only relatives he was familiar with were his own family and Uncle Hu's family.

But for ambitious relatives, even if I have never met them, I am willing to give them a helping hand.

Tao Yu doesn't care about so-called relationships or backdoors. As long as the gap is not big, it is natural to give priority to her relatives.

What we need to eliminate are those guys whose minds are only thinking about speculation and waving big banners.

Tao Yu still trusts the opinions of his parents and Uncle Hu on this point. It is rare that they have maintained such positive outlooks for so many years in an environment like the outer city.

As for being relatively weak, that doesn't matter, as long as I'm strong enough...

"It felt like I was away for quite a while, but there was something wrong with the flow of time at Marvel, so it wasn't long, only two or three months..."

Tao Yu looked at the luxurious room in front of her and felt a little melancholy. Although the environment had improved, it lacked the homey feeling of the previous room.

Tao Yu stretched out his fingers, and an invisible thread extending from the fire of civilization wrapped around his hand for a moment, and then untied itself like a slipknot.

"Not bad. Saints do have the authority to 'interact' with the world's will..."

When I returned from White Star City for the first time, I was completely unable to operate because I had become a saint in the abyss. After I returned, I was sensed by the fire of civilization, which caused some twists and turns.

After Xingyao destroyed the Star Saint and checked the Fire of Civilization, he also modified the permissions.

A saint is a saint after all, and his weight and treatment in the world's will have been substantially improved.

After a brief sense, he found that his parents, third brother and Shitou were all there. The little rich sister was also chatting with them in the hall. It seemed that he was listening to his parents talking about some embarrassing things in his childhood. They must be waiting for him.

Although I will have to save some money for the transmission fee, the price of communication fee is still not a problem. I have enough communicators in my hand, so I will naturally inform my family when I come back at this time.

crunch~
Pushing open the door, Tao Yu also saw a beautiful and graceful maid standing at the door.

It was the head maid Lalei whom he had seen before, who followed the little rich sisters.

After seeing Tao Yu coming out, Lalei, who had received the news in advance, was not surprised at all. She just bowed slightly.
"Meet Master Tao Yu."

Lalei herself possesses the strength of a boundary breaker, and she could be considered the personal bodyguard of the young rich woman and her friends. Now that they have gotten married, she naturally follows them, and is also considered one of the defensive forces inside this residence.

"Thank you for your hard work. Let's arrange lunch. I haven't tasted the delicious food here for a long time."

Tao Yu nodded to Lalei, then walked straight towards the hall.

Lalei glanced at Tao Yu's back and sighed in her heart.

It's really hard to believe. When we first met, he was still a rash little boy who couldn't even restrain his gaze and kept looking around.

I had guessed that his talent would give him the chance to marry into the family, but I didn't expect things to develop so quickly...

When Tao Yu came to the living room, he immediately attracted everyone's attention.

"Old Seven is back."

"elder brother."

"Husband~"

"Brother-in-law~"

The bright smiles on everyone's faces also made Tao Yu understand that this was what he needed to protect...

……

We didn’t use the long table that big families like to use, but just an ordinary round table, which created a very warm family atmosphere.

However, the ingredients and cooking skills are top-notch, and there are maids with special skills who use telekinesis to collect the empty plates and complete the replacement.

Let the whole family focus on enjoying delicious food and chatting.

The warm currents that these foods turn into when eaten into the stomach also have various additional auxiliary effects.

This made Tao Yu, who had eaten a piece of the fish liver, savor the aroma of fat exploding in his mouth, and sigh as he looked at Tao Shi who had already eaten his fill.

"Shi Tou, with such great resources, why aren't you a senior partner yet?"

Tao Shi was not strong enough, and like his father and mother, he was unable to digest the food after eating some. He could only sit on a stool and drink juice that promoted digestion.

Listening to Tao Yu's words, he also said with a face full of grievance

"Brother, not everyone has such a good talent as you. My talent is about the same as Third Brother's, and I don't have the accumulation of Third Brother's past, so naturally I will be slower."

"I'm still lazy. I don't have the sense of crisis that my third brother has, and I'm not even as hardworking as my parents. In the abyss, only my own strength belongs to me."

Tao Yu flicked Tao Shi's forehead from a distance, making his head buzz.

In fact, although Tao Shi and Tao Tong are talented in combat, their dynamic vision is less than B-level, which is almost the same as a blank slate for the children in the floating city.

It's purely based on some basic resources and various small skills.

Relatively speaking, Tao Tong, who has been relying on his own efforts and working hard without wasting time to improve himself, is actually becoming stronger faster than Tao Shi.

With some high-quality shooting equipment on hand, it is enough to threaten senior partners.

However, considering their talents, the normal upper limit is indeed not high.

"Okay, let's teleport to the new development area of ​​Ice City, and then go to Soul Society to get a Zanpakutō. I've already made arrangements."

Tao Yu did not listen to Tao Shi's excuses and directly arranged the follow-up.

Although the strength of a Zanpakutō is also determined by the display of spiritual pressure, it also gives them another way to practice.

Tao Yu would not give him the World Heart Fragment, which he himself lacked, but he would still help with other things...

-

"...Don't mention it. The Xing family is indeed worthy of ruling Xingyao for so many years. There are too many rat holes. Grandfather searched several times personally but couldn't clear them out. Now they still pop up from time to time, but there haven't been catastrophic threats for more than a month. I wonder if there are any more..."

In Tao Yu's room, Sun Shiqing was lying on the bed barefoot, swaying back and forth constantly, with a comic book in front of her and she would turn a page from time to time.

"For the remnants of the Xing family, the disaster-level is an indispensable combat force. Since some of them have escaped, they may have to restrain themselves after they are contained. However, under this hatred, there is a high possibility that they will come back to vent their anger one day."

Tao Yu pinched Sun Shiqing's little feet, rested her head on Sun Shiyu's knees, and received a massage on her temples. She felt very relaxed.

In fact, if the Xing family really did this, it would become even more troublesome.

If the few remaining strong men with catastrophic strength launch sneak attacks from time to time, then with the vigilance of the old frontier area, they will find out sooner or later, and we will surely be dead!
But if the possibility of revenge is continuously prolonged, the old frontier areas that are not guarded against thieves for a thousand days will have to endure possible revenge from time to time.

This situation is difficult to deal with and there is no solution.

Unless the Xing family becomes completely stable again and regains its own foundation, or if there is a catastrophic death of each one and no new ones are born, and the family completely declines and is wiped out...

"The congratulatory reception is almost over, but we still need to deal with some contracts and promises that the Xing family signed before, and we also need to consider some follow-up extensions. But for now, the transition is quite smooth. It's rare for the transition of cities to be so 'peaceful'."

Sun Shiyu lowered her head and pecked Tao Yu on the mouth, and when she bent down, Tao Yu's face sank.

It is a rare situation to snatch the fire of civilization from the hands of a saint who is still alive, and who has a short lifespan and will have no worries.

The covetousness brought about by the subsequent chaotic period and even some of the agreements signed in the past will have various problems.

However, the ancestor of the "Styx" was too powerful, and the eldest elder of the Sun family also broke through under pressure. He himself also had a network of saints similar to Qian Lin, so the stability was relatively fast.

The Sun family's great elder was able to invite a saint like Qian Lin to take charge at the critical moment, and the relationship between the two parties can be said to be very close.

The most is that Sun Miao didn't keep up with the pace before, and they might become a little distant over time.

Now that he has successfully become a saint and obtained the fire of a city, it is conceivable that all the old relationships can be restored and even strengthened again.

After all, even if Qian Lin’s contribution in the last incident was not very big, coming here in person to face another saint could be considered a big favor.

The interactions between you and me will naturally become more enthusiastic.

"I don't like these things. I just collect the commission for my teacher. I don't care about other trivial matters."

"My brother-in-law is really careless. He won't even check the accounts when the time comes."

Sun Shiqing said sarcastically, and her flexible and white toes drew a circle on Tao Yu's chest.

"Just check it out."

Tao Yu chuckled. What's the point of checking the relationship between accounts? As long as you put your mind to it, you can make sure there are no loopholes. The accounts will look pretty good.

Tao Yu doesn't care about some positions that try to make some money, as long as the main profit reaches the target.

If they don't meet the standards, then we just kill one batch and replace them with a new batch. Checking the accounts? I don't have the energy for that...

……

"The recent destruction and backlash from the Xing family were directly converted into the profits from our family raids. Considering that several families advanced the funds themselves, here is the share of the profits for the past two months."

Tao Yu received the dividend of 1 billion wishes from Sun Miao.

After continuously plundering Marvel and the world of Death, and killing a quasi-saint who was about to become a saint, his pockets had exceeded 1 billion. Now he had received so much without doing anything, which made Tao Yu once again realize the importance of his foundation.

How could there be so many quasi-saints and saints in the world for you to kill? They might all run away once your name gets out.

If you just want the power of will, then this farming style is more stable.

Similar to the Assassin's League, it's more about collecting some rare materials.

"Hehe, luckily my wish power is safe. If I really had a wish power item worth billions on me, I wouldn't be surprised if I were killed by a saint when I went out."

Under Sun Miao's "protection", Tao Yu continued to absorb the power of vows, which was actually the reason why Sun Miao came here in person.

No matter whether it is in Xingyao or not, and no matter whether this is your territory or not, you have to be on guard when necessary.

After seeing that Tao Yu had absorbed everything, Sun Miao took out some skill items and said:
"These are some computing power skills, but this kind of skills are very universal. Excellent skills are almost adaptable to any system, so the top ones are more difficult to get. This is obtained by looking for old money."

There are quite a few skills, but many of them are repeated in previous ones, and there are about a dozen that are not repeated.

Tao Yu naturally didn't despise it and took it away with a wave of his hand.

"Thank you."

"We are all family, why thank you? If you really want to thank your teacher, you won't be able to play with the ball."

Sun Miao was also open-minded and was well aware of the dangers of the situation at that time.

From any perspective, it is inevitable to have a good relationship with the 'Styx'.

Fortunately, the other person’s apprentice got on his own car early.

Integrating into the bloodline of the Abyss Succubus is really the right choice...

The cost of investing when things are small is completely different from the cost of investing after they have already started to grow!
The effect of the initial 100,000 wishes is much higher than the current 1 billion wishes...

"Now that you are traveling with your teacher in the abyss, you certainly don't need to worry about safety issues, but after returning to the world, remember not to leave easily. This time, I came back from the abyss specifically for this purpose in addition to sending you wishes. If you want to go anywhere outside the floating city, just tell me and I will take you there."

Sun Miao said to Tao Yu with instructions.

Everything is fine in the floating city, Sun Miao has been here all the time, but if he wants to go out, he feels that he must follow!

At least that's the case recently.

Tao Yu was stunned when he heard this, and then he understood what the other party meant.

It seems that Sun Miao deliberately put aside the matter of the development zone and came here alone.

Otherwise, the remnants of the Xing family have not been completely eliminated yet, and he can only go back after a five-day interval. Who knows what trouble might happen.

But for Xingyao right now, the most critical point seems to be himself.

I am the link between Xingyao and the Styx...

-

"Well, I am at the disaster level after all, and I also have the holy relic given by my teacher to protect me. If someone wants to pose a threat to me, he must be at least a quasi-saint. Is there anyone who is so narrow-minded..."

Of course Tao Yu herself doesn't care. If there are really people who can't get over it, this is just like delivering it to your doorstep.

In addition to the things in the Marvel Universe, I had exchanged 1.2 billion wishes and those skills before. Some of the disaster-selected equipment for daily jungle play were accumulated.

Tao Yu doesn't mind it. He might sell it again next time he passes by another development area.

"Well, that's true, but there are probably a lot of people watching you right now. Even in the floating city right now, there may be spies from other forces. I guess everyone who should know knows that you're back, and the ones who are paying attention to you may not necessarily be the Xing family."

Sun Miao said earnestly that the holy object itself is a trump card, but it is also a temptation!
Unless a quasi-saint appears in a family, most families that possess holy objects keep them within the clan territory to suppress their influence and guard against villains.

Activating holy objects requires extreme caution.

Even so, I occasionally heard of families that lost their holy relics due to conspiracy...

The Xing family does not have the ability to retaliate now, but the surrounding forces, potential competitors of Xingyao Company, or simply those who do not want to see Xingyao rise, may attract some attention for various reasons.

“But you young people probably don’t like an old man like me always being around. So, take this. Although I know your teacher must have given you the protection of the Holy Will, it’s still too far away. I’m in the city, so just stay within the gray fog area…”

As he spoke, Sun Miao also handed Tao Yu a jade pendant with a hint of holiness on it.

As a new saint, Sun Miao has now started to cut the holy will, which consumes much more than the pottery jade that can be restored at will.

Tao Yu also accepted the things.
"Thank you, I guess I won't get a chance to use it."

"Haha, it's best if it's not used. Well, I won't disturb you young couple anymore. I'm going to meet some guests."

As a saint who had just broken through, Sun Miao not only had to deal with the perfunctory issues in the old Xingyao development area, but now that he was back, he also had to make use of his time to personally meet with the few important representatives who were still waiting here and really wanted to discuss business.

He needs to deal with some organizations, trade fairs and even cooperation that only saints can access on his own.

Sun Miao, who had just taken the position, was completely different from those old saints who had taken care of all the trivial matters and could sit behind the scenes peacefully...

……

“It’s quite chic.”

Tao Yu turned the jade pendant in his hand and then put it away.

However, just as he was leaving the Sun family residence and preparing to return to his room to accompany his wife, his expression suddenly changed.

There was a communication from the 'Killer Star' of the Assassin's League.

In fact, during this period, there were still some secret communications between the three giants of the Assassin's League.

Most of them are reports of safety, and some are simple cases of hibernation.

After all, the old man of the Styx had been hanging around in Xingyao City before, and Xingyao City also had its own new saint, but the Assassin's League had taken on the work of the hostile forces before.

Therefore, it is right to lie low and worry about revenge, and nothing will happen.

But this time, the "Killer Star" was activated with a high-level code, indicating that there was an important mission.

Tao Yu also took out the corresponding communicator and started reading the message.

"We received a message from headquarters that a new representative will arrive in a month, and a new mission has been issued. The mission is quite difficult, and the three of us must think of a solution."

The task of having three disaster-level people meet at the same time really surprised Tao Yu. He then sent a message back.
"What mission? Do we need to prepare together? Is it a disaster-level assassination? Who is the new representative? Do we know each other?"

Tao Yu was also asking for information casually. As one of the three disaster-level members of the White Star State Assassin's League, Tao Yu was fully qualified to ask this question.

Even for the Assassin's League's headquarters, whose location is completely unknown, the Disaster Level is definitely an extremely important combat force.

It can be said that Tao Yu came to power by stepping on the dead representative from the headquarters.

It seems normal that new representatives will come.

But it doesn't matter, if there is any hindrance, just get rid of it.

It is actually quite good to have the Assassin's League as a shell. Now we can get some information from other channels.

"You probably don't know the new representative. His code name is 'Xuan Gui'. He must have failed in his mission and just came here to avoid the limelight."

The killer’s response made Tao Yu speechless. Why is it this guy again?
A month later, he should be recuperating and traveling, and I don’t know where he is in the world now. I only know that his position in the abyss should have been closer to me before.

"Did you arrange for Xuan Gui to come here because he has met me before? As someone who was able to escape unscathed after encountering the ancestor of Minghe, why was he thrown directly to the vicinity?"

Tao Yu thought about it carefully and it seemed that this was really possible!

Although the atmosphere was not very good during the first meeting with 'Xuan Gui', at least the transaction was completed, and they went back to finish fishing tacitly.

The relationships can be switched back and forth. This experience may allow Xuan Gui to avoid being killed instantly without even having a chance to speak when facing a moody saint like 'Stingy'.

"The assassination mission is not aimed at me..."

Tao Yu murmured in his heart.

"As for the mission, it's not an assassination, but to find a way to sneak into Xingyao and protect the new disaster-level named Tao Yu. We have received intelligence that someone seems to want to use our name to assassinate him. We absolutely cannot take the blame."

The Killer Star's mumbling made Tao Yu feel a little speechless.

I originally thought they were here to assassinate me, but it turned out that the Assassin's League came here to act as my bodyguard?
On the contrary, Tian Gang...

However, Sun Miao actually guessed that someone wanted to use the name of the Assassin's League to try to assassinate him.

However, the Assassin's League, which has always been indifferent to taking all kinds of blame, seems to have finally been unable to sit still this time.

He actually played the role of bodyguard...

"Ah? I know his intelligence. He has a holy relic, so he must be quite powerful. Even if he has just been promoted to the disaster level, how strong would it take to assassinate him? It's risky for us to participate in this kind of battle."

Tao Yu complained first, then continued to summon
"How did you get the information? Do you know who the assassin was? Who is the employer?"

"I know it's dangerous, so I waited for Xuan Gui to come and bring the headquarters' reward. As long as you successfully prevent the assassination, you will get a reward. The information turned out to be from the headquarters. I suspect that someone may have wanted the headquarters to arrange a quasi-saint or even a killer saint, but was rejected...

“Although the new disaster is quite powerful and has a holy object, he is not a quasi-saint after all. As long as we kill him before he activates the holy object, even I will have some confidence.”

The Killer Star said with great pride that his duel space was of great help in assassination. He could be said to be an innate assassination saint and the face and signature of the White Star State Assassin's Alliance.

Although the Assassin's League seems to act unscrupulously and has no fixed assets, they are not afraid of wearing shoes even if they are barefoot. There is indeed a need and soil for the survival of this organization.

But whether it is Baixingzhou or "Xuan Gui", it can be seen that their bottom line is very flexible.

If a quasi-saint or even a killer saint were to take action personally, it would definitely not be possible to measure the price simply. He would have to put forward some conditions that the Assassin's League could not refuse.

The reason for the rejection must be that the conditions offered were not enough. The Assassin's League was very wary of the strength of 'Styx'.

But also because an employer came to discuss, the headquarters got a glimpse of something...
