Living With My Lady Boss by Blue Silver novel Chapter 1146

The precious item must be a worthy contribution.

He was not willing to work for Manand, but it was a different story if he could obtain a suitable contribution.

These things were hard to come by, after all.

Wilbur pondered and looked calm on the surface. He asked, "What kind of precious item?"

Shepard replied, "I became a Super Sanctuary ten years ago, so I started to challenge the elite cultivators of Manand. The last person I challenged was Maddox. That person is also at the Super Sanctuary level. He has an extraordinary wand that broke my Domain. I was defeated by him."

"A wand?" Wilbur frowned.

Shepard nodded and replied, "The wand increases the power of his spells. It was astounding."

Wilbur secretly felt giddy, but he looked at Lucia like he was troubled. He said, "Mister Ambassador, he's a Super Sanctuary with a precious item. I'm afraid I can't help you."

"We know everything that happened here, Mister Penn. You have the capabilities to fight Maddox. Of course, we won't let you take the risk for nothing. Our president said you will be knighted as a duke if you agree to help. The lands of North Manand will be rewarded to you as your property," said Lucia with a low voice.

Wilbur was silent.

Being rewarded with a duke title and a piece of land was extremely hard to achieve in ancient times, let alone the modern times.

Manand was willing to pay him handsomely, so it seemed like Maddox was truly a serious threat to them.

They both pondered in silence.

Lucia felt anxious inside.

Manand had never knighted anyone as a duke and rewarded them with land before.

However, Maddox was terrifyingly powerful.

He had forces in the military and the political circles. Moreover, his personal cultivation was astounding. The president and the politicians all felt like Maddox could commit treason and take over anytime, and it was very likely for him to win.

That was why the president kept thinking of solutions but to no avail.

Dasha suddenly reached out to them a few days ago. They said someone from the Department of Paranormal Research and Defense rescued his people in North Manand.

They were shocked to discover what happened.
