"Just how big is your treasury?" Within the tower of heaven, Fan Ye asked while looking after her herb garden with Ling Han looking at an action figure of a mighty expert. At her words, Ling Han looked into his treasury which was ever-growing. with the fate that covered countless miles collected, every second something new was appearing within his treasury.

"Currently, I have 671 sextillion weapons of all shapes, forms, and abilities. 3 octillion non-related weapons, and lastly 381 undecillion herbs of all kinds. but most of them are pretty much the same." I said leaving Fan Ye blanked at the stupid long numbers.

"Ling Han, you should know something about numbers." Fan Ye said after taking a deep breath and looked at me, while I was simply confused.

"After a million, numbers become meaningless. In the Blue Flame Royal family, why do you think they had kingdoms manage their land for them? they didn't have the power and time to look after and take care of the whole continent, so why not gift it to others who would not only take care of the land but also pay yearly tax?" Fan Ye asked while I nodded slightly.

"too many people also can't live in one city, at some point thats just too many. a few million is alright, but any more than you might as well split the city apart and have that one city become two cities. too many people in one spot means too many mouths fighting for resources, which in turn means conflict amongst the people." Fan Ye said softly,

"This is why cities are so far apart from each other. conflicts are bound to appear between city lords. A city could have hundreds of miles under its control. but the city itself would be only a few dozen or so miles. the bigger the city, the more manpower needed to protect it, and also use its resources." Fan ye said

"You don't want people to know just how many treasures are on me?" I asked while looking at my treasures. the history of this world is large. I had yet to fully get all of the items yet to be born in the land which fate I had collected. this is mainly thanks to the fact I was weak. but for treasures born in the past millions of years, they had all currently appeared within my treasury. as I grew stronger, the further back it would go.

"Yes, just say you have a few million..." She said stunned at just how rich her son was, even in the upper region her son would be able to stand as a rich man.

"What happens when something you take out is broken?" She asked while taking herbs to use to create her perfect clones. to create perfect clones, special herbs that have a lot of lifeforce are needed, other than the herbs, resources carrying the 5 elements are needed as well.

The more capable you are, the greater the quality and ranks of the resources needed. the better the clone is, the better the fusion would be. Fan Ye didn't like the idea of having her son supporting the whole clan, so she forbade everyone from using her son's resources, so they had to come to the tower of heaven to plant their own stuff.

But the tower of heaven would not always be open to everyone as it would be given back to Ling Han, so everyone had to hurry up and plant the resources needed. Since the Tower of Heaven allowed them to form a gate to its inner world, they were able to enter the Tower of Heaven even from thousands of miles away.

"When broken, they reform within the treasury. the only limit to this is if the treasure is used. so pills and one-time use items would not reappear within the treasury." I said calmly, Fan Ye nodded slightly before speaking

"Go and train, you know you had yet to tap into the true limits of your capability so go and train and fuse as many clones as you can. You need not worry about food, we will soon head to the upper region." Fan Ye said with a smile, causing my eyebrow to raise

"Didn't Dad just take over the Blue Flame Continent yesterday?" I asked to which Fan Ye nodded slightly.

"With the clones, he can be in more places at once. right now, the clones are dealing with the other kingdoms while his main body is going to the Imperial city." She said to which I nodded slightly, stunned at how fast my father was dealing with all of this.

"Well, I should get going," I said while looking at the action figure and left, seeing Fan Ye smile slightly. feeling her son's state of mind, he wanted to act grown yet he was a child in the end. how could he resist these toys as he grew older?

"..." Ling Mei looked at Ling Han who stepped out of the gate from the Tower of Heaven, she was blank for a moment seeing the toy in Ling Han's hands. from what she understood of from Ling Han, he wouldn't carry around such toys due to his pride.

"Cough... well, it was a gift from Fireheart, It would be rude to throw it away. I will hold on to it before putting it somewhere." I said cooly,

"Of course." Ling Mei and Ling Wong said with a nod of their head, while secretly thinking of just how cute Ling Han was. 

"Well, I guess I should start building my plans," I said while looking at the two, and after telling them what I wanted, the two nodded seriously before heading off to deal with them. They would be gone for a few days or even months

I went to go to my room. upon entering I couldn't help but look at the action figure which I waved my hand to motivate

After, the action Figure suddenly lightened up and went on to fly into the air. Qi gathered around the toy, taking the form of a flying sword which the action figure stood on while putting its hand behind its back cooly.

"No evil shall rampage so long as I Shi Feng live." the action figure said, speaking its famous catchphrase which made my eyes glow slightly. my mother had read to me many stories, and Shi Feng was one of such people.

A mighty expert from billions of years ago who had slayed the beast king. the lord of all wild beasts, it was because of him humans remained supreme. you would not find wild beasts with wisdom walking around as they all not dare to step out due to his actions back then.

With one finger, he had stepped forward. it was a simple finger, without any deadly aura of the kind. but the wild beast king couldn't even fight back before his finger and fell dead that day. It was said that Shi Fend wasn't even 50 years old and could easily defeat a mighty powerhouse like the Beast King who lived for billions of years. 

Ling Han watched as the action figure held out its finger and just stabbed forward, sadly I didn't have the complete set of the action figure. so I couldn't recreate the battle from back then.

"Ling Han, do you like..." Fireheart entered my room, only to find me calmly reading a book with an uninterested look. she looked at me and back at the action figure in the air which was currently putting its hand back after stabbing forward with its finger.

"Like what? Oh that, yeah, it's cool." I said with a shrug, Fireheart pressed her lips slightly seeing through my act. how couldn't she when the book was upside down?

"the book is upside down." She siad with a smile, to which I nodded calmly as if I already knew.

"I'm challenging myself to be able to read even with the words upside down. next is to read the words reflected in a mirror." I said calmly, to which Fireheart nodded. Of course, she didn't believe me as she knew how I hated it when my mother had me sit down to read.

"Well, I thought you would like the complete set. You know I just came from Imperial City with the full set. Sigh, they were so hard to find... well, I should return them." Fireheart said while my hands twitched slightly.

"I will not reject a gift. My mother would kill me if she heard I rejected your good intentions. so thank you." I said calmly, but Fireheart shook her head with a downcast look.

"No, I can't give you something you don't like. Clearly, you're more grown than other children, I should give you gifts grown-ups would want." She said with a smile, but a chop landed on her head, causing her to cry slightly.

"Don't tease little Han like that, my little thing. you can have all the toys you want." Yuan Ming said as I found myself in her hands. She was now stronger than me, unless I moved the seal on my eyes, I couldn't keep up with her. She had fused with her clones and quickly helped her breakthrough to level 10 Nascent soul, giving her the power to even rival those at the peak of the Saint realm. I had yet to reach such a level of power.

"What do you mean, who wants toys." I sneered while quickly trying to close the book which was a blank book for drawing. I had gotten this to act like I was reading books for hundreds of pages when others entered my room... but Yuan Ming saw the book and couldn't help but smile slightly, making my face turn red in embarrassment.

"You're just too cute." Yuan Ming said moved by the cute little doll in her hands, but this only increased my embarrassment. I couldn't help but glare at Fireheart. if I did not bully this girl when I was older, then I would spell my name backward

{the host has made his first oath... the host has gained [Absolute Contract]

[Absolute Contract]- This is the fusion of all oaths, deals, and contracted-related abilities and techniques. With this, all agreements you and another party make shall be followed. Punishment for breaking the agreement shall be decided by the user. no matter how great the punishment is, it shall fall through given enough time. the amount of time needed reflects your strength. If they are weak enough, then they would not even have the chance to break the agreement

Note: All agreements made can be affected by this, a simple verbal agreement would be affected by this. Depending on the punishment would also affect the time needed for it to fall through. if the punishment is death, then if the other party is powerful enough, they can hold off death for some time. but their death would come soon. but if the punishment is unimaginable pain, then the punishment would hit them as soon as they break the oath

This has 3 levels, and it's leveled up through just what type of contracts are made. 

Lvl 1- You can only form contracts through writing using blood. the contract can't be broken and even sensed by others but you.

My eyes narrowed slightly at this, but I was brought back to reality by Yuan Ming who sat me on her lap while she held a few toys.

"Although you can't go beyond the Thunder Kingdom, we can go. we went to get you all types of things that could only be found in the Imperial kingdom." Yuan Ming said with a smile, I tried to act cool and just took the treasure.

"I see. thank you, big sis." I said calmly as if I didn't care much. but my eyes betrayed me, causing Fireheart to smirk, to which I went on guard against this bully. but Fireheart didn't dare to bully me when her master was here...

After they left, I had no time for anything else and just went to sleep. I like sleeping when I have nothing else to do. I normally sleep for 12 hours a day, it's a good way to save energy and pass time...

"My lord, it's morning. please wake up." the next day, Ling Han was awakened by a maid. As I woke up, I couldn't help but start coughing. My nose felt stuffy, and I instantly felt something was off with my senses. I couldn't help but frown and look inside my body.

The poison I had absorbed seemed to be putting up one final attack, but in a few days, the poison would be gone. but in these few days, I would be at my sickest as my body's full attention was on the poison. in the past I needed like 3 months to fully refine this poison, but not anymore as I had fused with my clones.

although the fusion had a small cool down, if one kept fusion back to back without some time to rest, some unwanted backlashes could befall them. So, after fusing with his clones just once, Ling Han had to wait a week before he could fuse with his clones once more. Ling Fang and the others needed to wait a month before they could fuse. On each month, Ling Han could be thousands of times stronger, the same as the others.

Since I was stronger, the time needed for my body to fully absorb the poison had dropped to only a few days. One should know, that as I absorbed the poison I grew stronger while the poison grew weaker.

"My lord you're sick." The Maid said with a horrified look seeing Ling Han's runny nose. Ling Han waved his hand slightly, not bothered much as he stood up.

"It's nothing, keep this between you and me. I just ate something that needs my body's full attention to break down. I will be alright in a few days." I said softly, the Maid was uneasy but as I looked at her she nodded with great unease. From my treasury, herbs that could help me fight this sickness floated out and went to her.

"those items would help me shorten the time to finish absorbing it to just 3 or 4 days. Go and make them into tea or something." I said while heading over to take a bath which was ready for me..

the maid who was Ling Mei's assistant had an uneasy look while making my breakfast using what I gave her. She was scared, what if Fan Ye found out she didn't report this ahead of time? but if she told and got on Ling Han's backside, would he hate her? She rather have Fan Ye hate her than Ling Han, she joined the Ling Clan because of how capable Ling Han was after all.

So, she went on to take care of Ling Han. She quickly noticed Ling Han's senses seemed to not be as sharp as before, Ling Han couldn't even use his energy thanks to him being ill. but he kept it all to himself and was even able to hold back the sickness when he was before his mother and act as if he was okay. but this led to him returning to his room to suffer from a runny nose and nonstop coughing.

Luckily for Ling Han, the next day he woke up not feeling as bad. thanks to what he ate, he felt better although he was still sick.

"Okay, today I should put those chefs I picked to the test," I said with a sigh, I had yet to eat anything those chefs had cooked. I was tired of drinking milk from my mother, I was too grown for such a thing. So, I had my maid go get the ingredients ready for the two to start cooking...
