As soon as Black Eight Horse finished speaking, the surrounding atmosphere instantly stiffened.
Wang Dawan, Yun Ma, and the others frowned. They were wealthy, yes, but no gift they could offer would ever surpass the one from Black Eight Horse.
At that moment, the Lord of the Four Seas of Dragon Country wore the sourest expression. He had also chosen a valuable birthday present for Murong Yezi, but compared to Black Eight Horse’s gift, it paled and was rendered worthless.
Dragon Country had developed too rapidly in recent years, aligning more and more with international standards. The United States of America felt threatened by this. Previously, Wu Tian’s presence had been enough to deter many nations. But he had since departed for the Underground World, and most assumed he would never return, drawn by its wonders and rich Spiritual Energy.
Now, with Black Eight Horse here, the Lord of the Four Seas knew that if he failed to produce a comparable gift, he would lose face, both for himself as the Monarch of Dragon Country and for the nation itself. By tomorrow, news of Dragon Country’s "empty prosperity" would undoubtedly spread to every country. He grew anxious. What should I do?
I’ve seen enough of this show. Wu Tian hadn’t expected Black Eight Horse to seize this opportunity to embarrass the Lord of the Four Seas and Dragon Country’s tycoons. Still, it wasn’t surprising. Dragon Country was on the rise, and even the world’s richest person was now from their nation. How could Black Eight Horse stand for that?
"Has the Monarch forgotten?" At that moment, Wu Tian stepped forward. "You already entrusted your gift to me." In his hand, he held a kitchen knife.
This kitchen knife looked exquisite. Its blade was practically crystalline, and a faint luminescence swirled along its edge. Anyone could tell this was no ordinary item.
However, when compared to Black Eight Horse’s chess set, many felt it still fell short.
But what surprised them even more was that Wu Tian had actually returned from the Underground World. Throughout history, anyone who entered the Underground World seemed to forget all worldly ties of kinship, love, friendship, and gratitude. There had never been an exception. Could it be that Wu Tian has become the sole exception?
A sense of unease washed over Black Eight Horse. He had only dared to act so boldly because he was convinced Wu Tian would never return to the Surface World.
When Murong Yezi saw that Wu Tian had returned especially for her birthday, a sweet smile touched her lips, and her heart filled with joy. "What’s that in your hand?" she asked.
"The Lord of the Four Seas asked me to give this to you in advance, Mom," Wu Tian said with a smile. "It’s a kitchen knife."
"Great! Great! Great!" Murong Yezi had recently been practicing her cooking with diligence. As a mother, how could my culinary skills be inferior to my son’s? Now, having received a kitchen knife, she was overjoyed. She took the knife from Wu Tian. It wasn’t inlaid with diamonds or gems, but it was exactly what she needed most right now.
Black Eight Horse fell silent, wondering what trick Wu Tian was playing. However, his guards, who were all Martial Practitioners, stared at the knife with unconcealable shock in their eyes.
Wang Dawan and the other tycoons, who also had Martial Practitioner bodyguards, saw the same astonished expressions on their faces. Black Eight Horse and the others began to ask their guards what was happening.
"This kitchen knife... it contains a power that is supreme, beyond everything else!"
"Just looking at it makes me want to pay homage!"
"Indeed!"
The Martial Practitioners gazed at the kitchen knife, their faces full of awe and fear. The expressions of Black Eight Horse and his contingent changed drastically.
Meanwhile, Wang Congming and his group were naturally delighted.
"Who said Dragon Country doesn’t have fine things?"
