Chapter 71 - Bottomless Pit of Raising a Child
There was this phrase in Li Xiandao’s old home!
Raising a son would cost so much money that his father would become poor!
Li Xiandao didn’t understand what those words meant in the past; how much could a kid even eat?
But now, he realized that he was just too innocent!
Seven’s expression was really ugly, “Can we do a refund?”
Li Xiandao blinked.
“They ate the 400,000 God Source that we had in just one meal. On average, each mini Flame King will eat 40 God Source!” Seven was finding it hard to imagine how much God Source they would have to consume to raise them up.
“As they grow, their appetites will also slowly increase.” Seven said.
There was also Heaven Heart who came back from collecting debts.
He brought back the Hundred Flower Holy Land treasury!
An entire treasury!
Li Xiandao passed it all to Seven and let her feed it to the mini Flame Kings!
Two meals!
One day!
It was all gone!
10,000 mini Flame Kings finished the treasury of a Holy Land in just one day.
Their appetites were also increasing at a visible rate!
When Li Xiandao saw such scenes, he was filled with regret!
A while ago, he felt like this deal was a huge win, but now it just felt like a bottomless pit!
There was nothing Li Xiandao could do but send Heaven Heart to collect debts.
There were still a few sects in Dali Land that owed the Bank of the Universe debt, so Li Xiandao had no choice but to send him to get them back.
After filing all the contracts, he found that five were worth collecting.
They were from Ten Thousand Demon Valley! Hundred Flower Holy Land! Mingde College! Diandao Sect! Ten Thousand Buddha Sect!
Out of the five, he had collected the debt from Hundred Flower Holy Land and he was left with four, which Li Xiandao originally didn’t plan on collecting back so quickly.
But he had no choice now.
Just thinking about having 10,000 giants in the future, each wrapped in flames and holding a standardized weapon to kill all enemies blocking his path, Li Xiandao’s nerves tingled in excitement.
Even if the investment was huge, he couldn’t bear to let the mini King of Flames go hungry.
He had no choice. So, Heaven Heart, who just returned, only took one look at the mini Flame Kings before he was sent out by Li Xiandao once more.
He had to get back all the four contracts along with interest.
“I allow you to attack. Whoever dares to stop you and delay time, just kill them!” Li Xiandao said coldly.
Heaven Heart didn’t know where Li Xiandao acquired these 10,000 mini Flame Kings with limitless potential, but since he was under him now, he had no choice but to run the errands.
He was really strong and there was nothing the remaining four sects could do to him.
They couldn’t beat him!
They didn’t have reason on their side!
They had no choice but to compensate!
Each day, Heaven Heart would return with large amounts of God Source, large amounts of treasures, and large amounts of resources.
All of these would enter the stomachs of these mini Flame Kings.
They weren’t picky eaters and as long as the items had energy and could replenish their cores, they would eat it.
The only thing Li Xiandao was happy about was the fact that they weren’t picky!
If they ate so much and were still picky, then Li Xiandao would consider whether or not he would actually raise them.
Li Xiandao, Seven, and Gabriel were busy like that for four days. Even Heaven Heart started to get exhausted.
Heaven Heart went out to collect debts, sending them back and then heading out once more.
Gabriel and Seven were either feeding them or were walking to feed them. They were so busy that they had no time to rest at all.
Li Xiandao looked at the vast amount of resources disappearing right after being acquired; his heart felt so pained that he couldn’t say a single word.
“Michael, come back quickly please.” Li Xiandao started to miss Michael for the first time.
Coincidentally, on the fifth day, Michael returned.
Battle Angel Michael, White Emperor Tian Guangming, Long Xun, and Long Haishou all returned and they said their goodbyes at the northern land.
“These are the treasures from the Ancient Dragon Tomb. I am passing them to you now.” Long Haishou passed the storage treasure to Michael.
Michael nodded his head, “From now on, you have no more business with the Bank of the Universe; you are free.”
Long Haishou exhaled a deep breath and smiled, “Yea, then we will be taking our leave.”
Michael and Tian Guangming looked on as they left.
In the next instant, Li Xiandao’s anxious voice rang out in their ears.
“Come back quickly. It is an emergency! If you don’t come back, someone will die!”
Michael and Tian Guangming’s faces changed. Was the Bank of the Universe under attack?
They didn’t dare to delay and they returned to the bank right away!
