Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Song Yubai did not expect the population of this level-two stargate to be close to tens of millions.
If all these individuals were to enter the Green Lotus Territory, there would undoubtedly be a significant and rapid increase in the territory’s population.
However, Song Yubai had also been informed by Mei Changge that the intention was not to relocate all these people in one fell swoop. Instead, Mei Changge intended to bring them in gradually.
Indeed, introducing 10 million people into the Green Lotus Territory all at once would likely overwhelm the territory and lead to immediate strain and instability.
Certainly, the population of these newcomers was nearly 10 times that of the Green Lotus Territory. Placing such a massive influx of people into the territory all at once could easily lead to significant issues and complications.
Mei Changge had carefully contemplated these factors before making his decision. While he desired development, he recognized that if this resource was larger in scale than the Green Lotus Territory itself, it could easily overwhelm and disrupt the entire territory.
“My lord, Mr. Guo asked me to hand this to you.”
After chatting for a while, Song Yubai took out an envelope from his pocket and handed it to Mei Changge.
“Feng Xiao wrote it?”
Mei Changge raised his eyebrows slightly. Then, he took the envelope from Song Yubai and opened it.
“The names of the two new cities and the flaws of the Myriad Lotus Coins? The idea of forming a special department?”
As Mei Changge perused the information inscribed in the letter, a look of understanding crossed his countenance. It now made sense why Guo Jia had chosen to convey this information through the written letter.
It turned out that Green Lotus City had officially expanded and successfully reached the size of a million people.
As for the locations of the other two cities, Guo Jia had also chosen them. One was near the original Forest race’s gathering place. After all, there was a mineral vein.
As for the other location, Mei Changge revealed a strange expression in response.
He did not expect Guo Jia to choose to build the next city near the Dark Wall.
Regarding the location of Great Xia’s Dark Wall, Guo Jia also obtained this information from Xu Ding. It was situated 30 miles to the north of Green Lotus City.
However, Xu Ding refrained from venturing into the Great Xia’s Dark Wall. Instead, he went back to Green Lotus City and initiated training for his soldiers. Upon Song Yubai’s return, Xu Ding led the Nine Howling Wolf Cavalry through the level-one stargate.
“Isn’t it just names for the cities? One will be called Forest City, and the other will be named Obsidian City.”
Mei Changge revealed a helpless expression. He did not expect Guo Jia to be concerned about this matter. It was just the names of two cities.
As he continued to read, Mei Changge also discovered the important matters in this letter.
“The flaws of the Myriad Lotus Coins.”
Mei Changge fell into deep thought again.
This letter contained the flaws of Myriad Lotus Coins.
Although the Myriad Lotus Coins could treat injuries, they could also be used for cultivation. It could be said to be very magical.
This also made the Myriad Lotus Coins important.
However, there was only one denomination of Myriad Lotus Coins, which caused some problems in purchasing items.
“That’s right. Whether it’s ancient or modern times, coins still require various denominations.”
Mei Changge rubbed his chin and fell into deep thought. Song Yubai and the others sat quietly at the side, not interrupting Mei Changge’s reverie.
“This matter is also easy to resolve, but the most important thing now is to resolve the problem of the Great Song.”
With the Golden Calabash, this problem was simple to resolve. He only needed to create higher-quality Myriad Lotus Coins.
The top priority was addressing the Great Song of this world. After all, the stage had already been set, and it was crucial to discover who stood upon it.
Mei Changge immediately communicated with the Blessed Land mark between his brows and left a message for Guo Jia.
“Let’s call the two new cities Forest City and Obsidian City. As for the currency issue, I’ll handle it upon my return.”
At that moment, Guo Jia, who was in the Green Cloud Pavilion, smiled when he heard Mei Changge’s voice.
“Everyone, the names of the new cities have been decided. It’s Forest City and Obsidian City. As for Hu Hua’s problem, the lord will resolve it when he comes back. ”
After Guo Jia spoke to them, he continued to discuss the internal affairs of the new cities.
The final matter addressed in the letter was Guo Jia’s proposal to establish a new department, which was also an imminent challenge facing the Green Lotus Territory.
As the population increased, there would definitely be disputes among the citizens of the Green Lotus Territory, and these disputes would need to be managed by the special department.
In plain terms, the Green Lotus Territory required a disciplinary department.
Mei Changge had actually made a decision about this issue. However, he needed to resolve the matter of the level-two stargate before establishing the new department.
Mei Changge looked at Yue Fei and Guo Jing.
“Have you spread the news?”
Mei Changge looked at Guo Jing.
“My lord, the book has already been sent out. I reckon it will spread throughout the entire Great Song within three days.”
Guo Jing nodded. He had instructed some martial artists to distribute those books. He estimated that it would take about three days for the information to spread throughout the entire Great Song.
“In that case, we’ll set off for Lin’an City in five days.”
However, according to the information recorded in the book, he was sure that even some Grandmasters would be attracted.
Mei Changge was also looking forward to meeting the strange martial artists of the Great Song.
In the next five days, Song Yubai led the Red Lotus soldiers and rushed toward Lin’an City.
Yue Fei also went to Lin’an City in advance, trying to convince his friend, Han Shizhong.
Only Guo Jing and Xu Chu followed Mei Changge.
In the past five days, Mei Changge had also opened a door of light to Green Cloud City through the Void Gate and let some commoners in Xiangyang City enter Green Cloud City.
It had to be acknowledged that due to the presence of the Ghouls, Mei Changge had attained an almost immortal status. He was quite renowned in Xiangyang City. When the commoners heard about relocating to a new place, they didn’t offer much resistance. This made it relatively simple for Mei Changge to guide these commoners into the Blessed Land.
Moreover, Xu Changqing was already prepared to accept these commoners and some martial artists from Xiangyang City.
In just five days, Xiangyang City became relatively empty.
This also caused the number of citizens under Mei Changge to increase again.
The commoners were registered in the Registry Hall, but it would probably take another day or two to complete the registration.
After everything in Xiangyang City was complete, Mei Changge led Guo Jing and Xu Chu to Lin’an.
Mei Changge had commanded the Golden Crow Guards and the Red Lotus soldiers to head to Lin’an City first.
Three days later, Mei Changge and the others finally arrived at Lin’an City.
Looking at Lin’an City, Mei Changge realized it was indeed much more prosperous than Xiangyang City. He also noticed that some martial artists were gathering towards Lin’an City.
“My lord, Lin’an City does seem much bigger than Xiangyang City!”
Xu Chu rubbed his head and said excitedly.
After the battle with the Ghouls in Xiangyang City, Xu Chu seemed to be in high spirits.
Howl!
A wolf’s howl suddenly sounded beside Xu Chu. The Snow Wolf rolled its eyes at Xu Chu as if it was mocking him for being inexperienced.
Back then, after the Snow Wolf saw Mei Changge and the Golden Crow Guards jump down the city wall, it went somewhere on its own. When it returned, it brought back a spatial ring in its mouth.
In the end, Mei Changge realized that the Snow Wolf had run in the direction of the Great Jin while they were fighting.
At that time, he did not pay attention to what the Snow Wolf had done. In any case, the Snow Wolf’s divine arts could easily find him.
“The Snow Wolf has made a contribution this time. Zhong Kang, don’t underestimate it.”
Mei Changge smiled and patted the Snow Wolf’s head.
Back then, after the Snow Wolf left, it entered the Great Jin and found what Gui Quan had left behind.
It was the ring that the Snow Wolf had brought back.
There was only one thing in the ring, and it was what Mei Changge needed.
Blessed Stones.
That’s right, the ring was filled with Blessed Stones. As for why Gui Quan did not bring them with him, it was because those Blessed Stones were all excavated from the Great Jin.
Moreover, there were tons of Blessed Stones in the ring.
This also surprised Mei Changge. He did not expect there to be a Blessed Land mineral vein in the Great Jin.
It appeared that once the issue with the Great Song was settled, he would need to send troops to Great Jin to maximize the extraction of Blessed Stone from the mine.
There was still plenty of time for the world of level-two stargates to exist, providing Mei Changge with ample opportunity to develop this realm. After all, it was destined to collapse sooner or later, so he saw fit to make the most of these resources while he could.
Mei Changge briefly entertained the idea of placing the entire world into the Blessed Land, but it was a passing thought that he didn’t seriously consider.
His decision was influenced by the lotus mark between his eyebrows, which reminded him that attempting to collect the entire world could potentially result in the catastrophic destruction of the Blessed Land. Consequently, he had no choice but to abandon this plan.
Regarding the collection of the moon in the past, Mei Changge could only attribute it to sheer luck. Otherwise, his Blessed Land would have detonated long ago.
“Let’s go into the city and take a look.”
Mei Changge looked at the city gate of Lin’an City with a curious expression. He didn’t know whether the person who had arranged the layout within Lin’an City had sensed the hidden currents within the city.
Under his interference, not only were there people who wanted to rise to the top in Lin’an City, there were also countless martial artists gathered here.
It was not only for the dragon-shaped white jade statue but also for the legendary item that allowed a human to live forever.
At that time, in a mansion in Lin’an City, a middle-aged man wore an angry expression as he held a white jade wine glass.
“Damn it, who spread the news about something that grants immortality!”
Bai Shixiong’s face was filled with anger as he smashed the white jade wine glass onto the ground. In an instant, the white jade that was worth thousands of gold turned into a pile of fragments.
“My lord, it’s because of this item that those martial artists have converged on Lin’an City!”
A green-robed man took out a book with a respectful expression.
It was the bone book that Mei Changge had asked Guo Jing to release.
“Hmph! It appears someone intends to challenge my authority!”
After Bai Shixiong finished reading the book, he couldn’t help but burst into angry laughter.
However, his anger had subsided, and he appeared to have regained his composure.
“Qing, instruct the Green-robed Soldiers to take action. This time, whether it’s the doing of martial artists or those old men, I must secure that position!”
Bai Shixiong’s expression became grave, and his tone grew even more severe.
As the head of the Bai family, he couldn’t let this opportunity pass while the Great Song royal family was under a curse. It was a rare and fleeting chance.
Additionally, his Bai family held a prominent position among the top aristocratic families in the Great Song. He also possessed a treasure beyond his wildest imagination..
