Chapter 498
Li Fan squinted his eyes.
Seeing the vast discrepancy in the itemized list that Zhou Kebao, this chubby man, sent him, Li Fan suppressed his initial urge to act out and instead calmed himself.
A slight adjustment had led to a 50% discrepancy in quantity.
This only meant that the actual number of materials was far greater than what he had in hand.
Although there had been some corruption and embezzlement within the Ten Thousand Immortal Alliance recently, everyone at least made an effort to cover it up—putting on a facade to conceal their actions.
But to be this blatant, to the point of being utterly shameless?
Rebuilding a whole Immortal City is a huge task. Yet, for someone like Zhou Kebao to skim off the top so blatantly, right in front of Li Fan, the acting Island Lord, and with such large quantities...
There could only be one explanation: the people behind this were targeting Li Fan directly.
That’s right. Li Fan’s appointment as the acting Island Lord may have been legitimate and lawful.
