Chapter 661: Construction of an Untouchable City (3)
Demons were the fear of the human's heart forever.
The struggle between demons and humans was comparable to the battle between the God Race and the Demon Race. It was a natural enemy that could not be resolved.
Those who could accept the demons basically did not exist before Shen Yanxiao came.
Shen Yanxiao was definitely a beautiful exotic flower in human history!
"I have already let them divide the low leveled demons' settlements in the underground city. As for the higher demons, they should not be easily discovered." Shen Yanxiao had also thought of this. So the demons with dark bodies were placed in the underground city early on.
The underground city of The Rising Sun was discovered by her not long ago. Compared with the destruction of the ground above, the situation there was much better, and it was more suitable for the demon's life.
The demons could choose to play in the underground city or could choose to be active during the day and return to the underground at night to rest.
The higher demons could change their appearance on their own will. There was no possibility of being discovered unless they encountered a peerless cultivator. Otherwise, even if they walked along humans, there would be no problem at all.
"This method is good, but you must make sure that in the early days of the trade, they will not be discovered by others. Many caravans in the early stages would come to examine such issue. Only after the news about the rich resources of The Rising Sun is passed on to people's ears will anyone be willing to come over. Later, it really doesn't matter if the demon is found out." Qi Xia smilingly said.
"I will pay attention to it." Shen Yanxiao nodded. In any case, she would not give up her plan of rearing the demons in a pen. She wanted Xiu to recover his strength quickly in a few days so that it would not take long before he could help her unlock the next layer of her seal.
"Anyway, there's no hurry. It will take five months to complete the construction of the city. You have some time to explore the resources of the Barren Land. Believe me, the wealth that this place can bring you is absolutely beyond your imagination." The keen sense of being a businessman had let Qi Xia discover the wealth this Barren Land could produce. Now, he was only waiting for Shen Yanxiao to grasp it.
In fact, it was precisely because the resources in the Barren Land were abundant that the four countries were painstakingly trying to open up a territory in the Barren Land. Once they could successfully develop a region in the Barren Land, the entire country was likely to undergo earth-shaking changes.
The Seven Kingdoms was a good example. The Seven Kingdoms itself was a coalition of seven small countries. It had always been the smallest existence in the face of the three mountains of Long Xuan Empire, Lan Yue Dynasty, and Divine Wind Alliance.
It was only after the Seven Kingdoms had successfully built the Twilight City in the Barren Land decades ago did it gradually developed and became a fourth country that could rival the other three countries.
Long Xuan Empire had long been unable to open up a city in the Barren Land, leading to the decline of the dominance of the once primary empire. This exactly what made the Long Xuan Empire Emperor anxious just like an ant on the pan.
"By the way, you've been in the Barren Land for quite long now. Have you ever reported to the old fogy of the Imperial Capital?" Qi Xia asked.
The old fogy of the Imperial Capital...
Shen Yanxiao thought privately: Is it really okay to brazenly called the Emperor old fogy like that?
"I have just sent a message in the last two days, but I don't think there will be any response. The Emperor dislikes me, otherwise he will not give me The Rising Sun City." Shen Yanxiao shrugged. She did not expect any help from her motherland. If it weren't for Du Lang to remind her that it was necessary to go through the motions, she wouldn't even remember to write a letter to the Emperor.
"This ah." Qi Xia stroked his chin and looked pensive.
TEASER
He didn't even send me any money or any supplies, yet he actually sent a special envoy to my side to inspect my city? Just what's the matter with that Emperor's brain?!" Shen Yanxiao was annoyed. This Emperor was too old to play too much. When the other people entered the Barren Land, Long Xuan Empire had sent a lot of money and materials to help them rebuild the city.
On the other hand, he did not even say anything to her, but he still sent people to see how she built the city.
The arrogant tone between the words and the lines really made Shen Yanxiao could not wait to immediately burn this letter.
*still thinking what to do when she smell something burning*
Shit, it reached me! *runs*
CUUT! Sky, check on her and see if she's hurt or anything.
On it! *went before SYX and fixed her cosmetics and made her changed her burned dress to a similar yet not burned one*
So I was just thinking... Can we change the script into that the envoy died as they went to the Rising Sun City?
Silly, won't you be blamed for it? Since your task is also to clean all the demons in all the part of the Barren Land belonging to the Long Xuan Empire.
What? As far as I remembered, I was only gifted with this city, whether or not it is safe to go here is not my concern.
Then if they heard the envoys died in the Barren Land during their trip to the Rising Sun City, then no merchant will go here, by then how are you going to fully develop the city?
Fine, how about someone assassinating them before they can even reach the Barren Land?
That...
I mean I'm sure the animals would even love to play with the envoys.
Oh shush, the story would be dull if that's the case! Besides you might be able to gain new slave- I mean friends from them!
