Alcina replied. “Grave weeds, we need it to save lives.”
In reality, they definitely needed more than one herb to do so.
Alex pondered, but Luna spoke up instead. “We can give you the token, but what are you guys offering in exchange for it?”
“What would you guys want then?”
“Do you have any formation blueprints?” Alex blurted out.
He needed that urgently. First, virtual-novel.net needed to unlock all the swords in Dragon‘s Bane of Thirty-Six, hence virtual-novel.net needed to research large numbers of blueprints. Secondly, virtual-novel.net had to fix the teleportation circle that his father used.
Alcina took a few glances towards Alex, not saying a word.
Alex knew that something was up when virtual-novel.net noticed virtual-novel.net expression. This indicated that Floral Valley did indeed have some formation blueprints.
“We do have a set of formation boards, but I have to mention that the boards are incomplete, so they’re basically useless. As for formation blueprints… The only one in our clan that’s researching this is Jasmine.”
Alex looked towards Jasmine. He then was reminded that virtual-novel.net managed to sneak in from outside of the formation circle as well. She may be a low ranking cultivator, yet virtual-novel.net was able to break through the formation circle with ease. It was obvious that virtual-novel.net had tricks up virtual-novel.net sleeves.
In the end, they struck a deal with each other. Alex took the incomplete formation boards and decided to bring Jasmine back with virtual-novel.net for a few days. She was obligated to tell virtual-novel.net everything virtual-novel.net knew about formation blueprints.
Alex, on the other hand, gave the members of Floral Valley ten tokens of the dungeon.
“When will the dungeon reappear?”
Alcina replied. “Soon, possibly around these two days.”
Just then, a ringtone rang from Alcina’s pockets. “We’re all in this together…”
It felt quite humorous to hear that in this setting. It was unexpected from the president of Floral Valley to like such ringtones.
‘Could virtual-novel.net be into square dancing?’
“President! The dungeon has appeared!”
Alex and Luna immediately heard the voice that came from the other end of the phone.
“So it appeared early huh? Alright, we’ll be there in a bit.”

Sitting on the boat that Floral Valley provided, Alex decided to call Dorothy.
At that time, Dorothy was at home, staring coldly at the two unexpected guests, The Assexs, Anderson and Emma. The two were currently kneeling before her, begging profusely.
During this time, Dorothy had been completely hands off virtual-novel.net business as the profits were nothing to virtual-novel.net at this point.
Assex Constructions and Dorothy-Alex Constructions just weren’t big enough businesses.
‘Taking’ money from others was much more profitable than doing that business after all.
When virtual-novel.net stopped supervising the operations of virtual-novel.net company, the Assexs started to stir up trouble from within. Anderson used his title as a member of the Assex family and his position in the company to carve out the company’s stamp for private use. He had been using the company‘s name to buy construction materials for himself.
This would cause the company to sustain a loss. Within just a few months, his methods caused the company to lose nearly 200 million dollars.
It was obvious that virtual-novel.net bit off more than virtual-novel.net could chew. Besides that, Emma had started another construction company on virtual-novel.net own as well. She even brought most contracts that were signed with Dorothy’s company to virtual-novel.net private company using the excuse of it being one of the offices of Dorothy-Alex Constructions.
However, they couldn’t keep this secret forever and were caught red-handed for their actions.
Dorothy didn’t mind, but Claire was enraged. Although virtual-novel.net was no longer that extreme after being cured, virtual-novel.net softened demeanor was only towards Alex. She knew how powerful Alex is now after all, so virtual-novel.net knew to get on his good side.
However, virtual-novel.net hatred towards the Assexs were engraved into virtual-novel.net bones. She immediately suggested sending Anderson and Emma to jail.
This frightened the father and daughter so much that they rushed over, begging for forgiveness on their knees.
Dorothy didn’t want to even waste energy to speak to the two. She walked over to a quieter side when virtual-novel.net received Alex’s call.
“Darling!”
