#472 - Chapter 206: The Land Where Gods Fell (I)

However, he also knew very well that if he insisted on passing this debt on to the other party, then the other party would most likely seize the opportunity to ask the Iron Bank for the inheritance of Iris II, which would inevitably lead to a fierce conflict between the two sides. Moreover, they seemed to have angered a major client. If Marquis Garon's Dawn Trading Company really withdrew its investment, it would undoubtedly add insult to the Iron Bank's already strained finances.

Just then, a guard walked into the conference room and whispered a few words in Tyrion's ear. Tyrion's expression suddenly became serious, and then he stood up abruptly and said to Tycho Nestoris: "I'm really sorry, but I suddenly have some important matters that need to be dealt with urgently, so I have to take my leave first. As for the debt issues, there is no need for us to discuss them any further." With that, he turned around and left in a hurry, quickly disappearing outside the conference room.

The remaining people looked at each other with puzzled expressions, their eyes full of confusion and incomprehension, as if shrouded in an invisible fog, completely clueless, and had no idea what had happened. At this time, Tycho Nestoris was thinking silently in his heart: "It seems that I have to re-examine and evaluate this debt collection operation!"

In fact, nothing major had happened. Nothing earth-shattering had happened. Only a raven brought news that the current Sea Lord, Ferrego Antaryon, had passed away from illness. Braavos would next have the Sea Lord election contest, and neither the Iron Bank nor the Sea Lord's fleet had the energy to get involved overseas. Faced with such a situation, Liu Yuan had no intention of wasting any more words with these envoys. Moreover, he decided to seize this opportunity to create some trouble for Braavos, so that they would have no time to attend to other matters.

In the following days, Tycho Nestoris visited the Queen's ministers privately, tirelessly. However, every effort was like a stone sinking into the sea, yielding nothing. Gradually, he realized that he could no longer impose any restrictions on Daenerys from the financial field. Obviously, this queen was not afraid of the Iron Bank at all.

However, if such a huge sum of money was lost in vain, it would be an unbearable burden for the Iron Bank at this stage. Since this path was blocked, there was only one way left: to use Braavos' invincible fleet, which was famous throughout the world, as a bargaining chip and use it to threaten them. But doing so would undoubtedly mean that the relationship between the two sides would completely break down and lead to confrontation. Thinking of this, Tycho Nestoris couldn't help but feel a heavy pressure surge into his heart.

Inside the Lord's mansion, sunlight streamed through the windows and fell on the desk, reflecting a golden glow. However, Liu Yuan had no time to appreciate this tranquility and beauty. He was sitting at the desk with all his attention, holding a pen tightly in his hand, his brow furrowed, as if he was caught in a difficult thought.

He kept writing furiously on the paper, and piles of documents accumulated beside him like snowflakes. Although the territory's legions were now gradually improving, and the administrators in various places had the ability to handle affairs independently, Liu Yuan, as the lord, knew that for the development of the entire territory, he still needed to make reasonable plans and decisions from a macro perspective.

After careful consideration, Liu Yuan and Daenerys reached a consensus: no military operations should be launched against the South in the short term. In this situation, they had to give their opponents ample preparation time so that all potential opposition forces could be drawn out. When the decisive battle came, General Visstolo would surely defeat the enemy in one fell swoop, and then no force would be able to pose a threat to the Targaryen family's rule. In addition, Liu Yuan's carefully laid out game in the East Continent also needed time to ferment slowly.

Because he had sensed bursts of divine power fluctuations before, he immediately realized that this abnormal energy came from the direction of the distant Smoking Sea. According to his judgment, this divine power anomaly was most likely caused by most of the escaped godhood of the Cold God.

The small half of the godhood that Liu had seized outside the Great Wall had now been completely absorbed and refined by him. After this cultivation, the various attributes in his body had been slightly improved. Although the increase was not large, every bit of progress brought him closer to his peak.

Based on the memory fragments left by the Lord of Mysteries and the Lord of Nature, Liu learned that under the ruins of Valyria, there were ancient alien gods and R'hllor's divine body being suppressed! And it was these two divine bodies that suppressed most of their divine power.

If he could successfully refine them all, then he would not only have the hope of breaking through to the Golden Core stage, but at least he could reach the Great Perfection realm of the Golden Core stage.

Just then, Daenerys quietly walked into the room. She gently walked to the table, picked up a plan and carefully read it. After a moment, she looked up and asked softly: "You seem to be particularly busy recently. Are these all arrangements regarding the territory's affairs? Why is this so?"

Liu Yuan nodded slightly, and replied with a solemn expression: "I need to leave for a while, as for when I will return, it is difficult to say at the moment. It will take as little as two or three months, and it may be unpredictable if it takes longer. Therefore, before leaving, it is necessary to properly handle everything. Take a look at this plan first..." As he said that, he slowly pushed a document towards Daenerys.

However, Daenerys did not reach out to take the document, but gently pressed it with her jade hand, her eyes always fixed on Liu Yuan's face, and said: "Is there anything that requires you to go now! Can you bear to leave me and Lilim behind?"

Liu Yuan sighed heavily in his heart. He knew that having a family meant adding endless worries. Then, he reached out and gently pulled Daenerys into his arms, and said in a gentle tone: "Dear, I'm really sorry! In fact, I don't want to be separated from you at this moment, but some things force me to go and deal with them. Well... it's about the mysterious god behind the Night King. Now I know where He is, and now is the weakest moment for Him."

Hearing this, Daenerys looked worried and quickly retorted: "This is too dangerous, even if it's just a crippled god, it's still a god after all!"

Liu Yuan slowly shook his head, expressing his denial: "At this moment, He has broken free from his shackles and regained his freedom. Those Others are just puppets manipulated by the Cold God. If we can't seal Him away forever, then our descendants may face enemies more terrifying than the Others in the future, such as ice dragons that cover the sky."
