Chapter 812: The City's Opening (2)
The Emperor of Long Xuan Empire was very bitter. But people didn't know that. Everyone only thought that he was complacent about the completion of The Rising Sun City. No one could understand the pain in his heart.
Served him right for doing something so stupid. The Emperor really tasted the effect of his own short-sightedness.
No matter how bitter and unwilling the Emperor's heart was, he had to be superficial. The disharmony inside of his country could not be known to any of the other three countries. Even if he and Shen Yanxiao couldn't see eye to eye, they must be in harmony and love in front of the other three countries.
Ever since, the Emperor quietly shed tears. He wrote a large list of gifts to send to The Rising Sun City and wrote a decree to the entire Long Xuan Empire, from the top to the bottom, that a Barren Land territory of the Long Xuan Empire had finally been reclaimed.
When the decree came out, the people of the Long Xuan Empire no longer had any doubts.
The whole country were cheering.
They could finally raise their heads high. They didn't have to look on helplessly as the other three countries acted smug for having forces in the Barren Land.
Whether they knew Shen Yanxiao or not, they expressed high degree of appreciation and praises for the beautiful little girl who brought glory to their country. Numerous civilians voluntarily and automatically made the Seventh Young Lady Shen an idol in their hearts.
A 14-year-old girl did what others could not do, which was much more inspirational!
They were truly proud!
This girl was a citizen of their country, ah!
In the midst of these cheers, there were also some discordant voices. The sources of these voices were basically concerned with the Warlock identity of Shen Yanxiao. These people were mostly noble families in the Long Xuan Empire, and they had a very deep understanding of the disaster of the Warlocks. They had a great prejudice against the Warlock profession.
Shen Yanxiao's success in building a Barren Land City, in their view, was a sign of the rise of the Warlocks.
But no one would be stupid enough to come out and say it out loud at this time. Even the Emperor had expressed his friendliness to Shen Yanxiao, and among the civilians, Shen Yanxiao's voice was more than a wave. At this time, if someone dared to jump out and accuse Shen Yanxiao of being dangerous because of her Warlock identity, it was estimated that that person would be drowned by the people's sputum in minutes.
Long Xuan Empire felt proud and elated.
However, the other three countries were not happy at all.
They did not think that the Long Xuan Empire could build a city in such a short period of time. According to the news that they received from their forces in the Barren Land, Shen Yanxiao had entered the Barren Land no more than six months ago.
