One day, she would reclaim the entire eastern region of the Barren Land!
She would leave her mark in every city here!
Once she grasped the entire eastern region of the Barren Land in her hands, who would then dare to confront her so easily?
……
The magic array was quietly started in the underground of The Rising Sun City. The human beings in the city did not notice a trace of strangeness, but the demons felt the dark force spreading out from under their feet. The scent was so tempting that they seemed to be in heaven.
“What’s going on?” Yao Ji felt the dark elements that were spreading in the air, and couldn’t help but suck a big mouthful of it.
“Oh! It must be the work of our great City Lord. I won’t leave The Rising Sun City in my whole life ever!” The two brothers, Jia Lan and Jia He madly devoured the dark elements around. This kind of delicious food made them happy and bubbling!
From this moment onwards, the demons of The Rising Sun City would no longer lack food. Under the nourishment of dark elements, the demons here would no longer attack humans.
On the other side, the progress of Uncle Jiu with the villagers in cultivating the land had also been kept up. Large areas of abandoned land had been opened up. And for the water resources that were the last missing thing, under the joint forces of three Mythological Beasts, a hundred meters deepwater well in the ground downward was created.
These might not have any effect at the initial stage, but in the future development, it would determine the prosperity of The Rising Sun City.
Su He had searched for new mines in the eastern region. After several days of hard work, he had successfully unearthed five new mining areas.
Early this morning, Su He reported the locations of the five mining areas to Shen Yanxiao.
“Two of these five mining areas are likely to store very rare metals. Once refined, these metals can be used to make weapons. They will be sharper than any other weapons.” Su He reported carefully.
Shen Yanxiao’s head was tilted. This news was good news for her. After the city was rebuilt, it was essential to build an armed force.
“Su He, you dispatched two teams to mine the areas you’ve discovered. The city walls are now basically built. The amount of obsidian needed is not too much. You can arrange for more people to mine rare ores and wait until the walls are completely done. We have to invest in the construction of the city.”
“Yes.” Su He had become the leader of the mining team, and Shen Yanxiao believed that Su He would not do anything to betray her.
“Big Brother Su, you should pay attention to your safety outside.” Yin Jiuchen’s hands were clasped in front of her body. As a lady figure, her face held a gentle smile.
“Good.” Su He smiled. Having Yin Jiuchen around Shen Yanxiao made him feel at ease.
Shortly afterward, Su He and his team members rushed to eat their breakfast and set off once again.
On this day, they left as usual, and no one would have ever thought that today would be different from all the last peaceful days they had.
Until the afternoon, no one from the mining team that had gone out in the city had returned. Shen Yanxiao was a little uneasy in her heart. She kept looking outside of the city gate.
“Still not back?” Du Lang ended his work and came to Shen Yanxiao’s side. Usually, the nearby mining teams would come back at noon to carry out supplies and ore shipments. But today, they had not yet seen the shadow of a team.
“No.” Shen Yanxiao frowned slightly.
“Don’t worry. Didn’t Su He say that several teams will be deployed to mine new areas today. Perhaps they have all been transferred.” Du Lang reassured Shen Yanxiao.
