Reincarnated As A Demonic Dragon, I Formed A Pact With A Beautiful Female Lord - Chapter 213
213 Conquering The Ancient Ruins To Turn It Into An Underground Territory
‘An underground ancient ruin turned into underground territory?!’
Su Wan was aware of Xu Yuan’s dream of expanding the territory underground. He had explained to her how dangerous it was to expand the territory on the surface. Expanding it underground was the safer choice.
As for making that a reality, it never worked because they didn’t have enough resources. Su Wan had thought that plan would be abandoned. However, after she obtained many resources from the tournament, she wanted to turn Xu Yuan’s dream into reality.
Su Wan was shocked at Xu Yuan’s words. He wanted to claim the ancient ruin as his own and transform it so that the territory could be expanded!
!!
Su Wan realized that this was exactly how Xu Yuan was. “But… I don’t think that’s a good idea.”
She did feel that it was a bad idea, but she didn’t reject his suggestion. He did have a point. If they did it from scratch, it would require immense manpower and resources. However, if they used the ancient ruins, they could renovate and use the buildings in it to serve their purpose.
Su Wan felt a little excited about the prospect. However, a small rational voice somewhere within her told her that this was a very bad idea. After all, it was the ruins of an ancient empire.
Su Wan hesitated. She was worried about provoking any ancient undead creature that might be found in the ruins.
However, the White Dragon Saint and the Fallen Angel had no such qualms. They perked up.
“As expected of you, Your Majesty!”
“We will follow you to the underground ruins!”
The Fallen Angel and the White Dragon Saint rushed toward Xu Yuan, eager to show their loyalty.
The scene perplexed Su Wan. Xu Yuan hadn’t even said that they would be heading to the ruins yet.
Su Wan didn’t want to explore the ruins just yet.
Without waiting for Su Wan to approve of it, the White Dragon Saint and the Fallen Angel had already started amassing an army to barge into the ruins.
‘This is wrong!’ thought Su Wan.
The White Dragon Saint approached Xu Yuan. “Your Majesty, please grant me the authority to command the Dark Dragon Knights. I will lead them to clear the new territory for you.”
The White Dragon Saint should have been seeking permission from Su Wan, the Lord of the territory. But he was only bowing down to Xu Yuan. He wanted command of one of her troops, and he didn’t even find it important to
‘Exactly whose territory is this?’ Su Wan was enraged.
The Fallen Angel flew to Xu Yuan too. “Your Majesty, please grant me the authority to lead the Burning Legion! I, Lufasi, will not disappoint you.”
Lord Gadar was baffled at his hero’s behavior. “Lufasi, who is your Lord? We have our own army.”
The Fallen Angel shook his head. “As the Dark Demon Dragon’s representative, it is only natural for me to lead a Dark-Type army.”
The Fallen Angel was being so picky. If it wasn’t an army of the Dark-Type, he didn’t even want to lead them!
Su Wan and Lord Gadar exchanged glances, feeling perplexed.
As for Xu Yuan, he didn’t see anything wrong with the White Dragon Saint and the Fallen Angel’s proposition. Just as he was about to agree, Su Wan appeared at his side.
“Xu Yuan!” she said. “Don’t you dare! These troops are mine! You are my hero. I have no problem with you using them however you please, but don’t you dare give the authority to someone else. These troops are mine as much as they are yours. They have to seek my permission if they want to lead them!”
Su Wan was angry. She knew Xu Yuan would make a decision without consulting her if she didn’t shout at him. Su Wan knew from experience that Xu Yuan always tricked and ignored her. Even other heroes had started ignoring her as a Lord.
Xu Yuan didn’t say anything, but he looked at Su Wan as though he was asking for her permission.
“Hmph! If that is what you want to do, then I will allow it just this once,” she said.
She deliberately said this. If she didn’t, she felt like her authority as a Lord wouldn’t matter to anyone. It wouldn’t take long for the White Dragon Saint and the Fallen Angel to forget about her again.
“The underground ruin is the ancient empire?” asked the Fallen Angel.
The ruins were directly under Su Wan’s territory. Every Lord knew about the ancient ruin. However, this was news to the Fallen Angel. He lived with his Lord by the sea, which was very far from the mainland.
He had thought that the ruins were just ordinary ruins found everywhere. He had no idea that it was the ancient empire’s ruins until the White Dragon Saint mentioned it.
“If that is true, it will be difficult to conquer it,” said the Fallen Angel. He looked cautious.
Unlike the White Dragon Saint, the Fallen Angel had once been deputy to the King of Heaven. He knew many things that the White Dragon Saint did not.
The Fallen Angel knew more about the ancient ruins than the White Dragon Saint.
“Is it going to be that difficult?” The White Dragon Saint noticed the somber expression on the Fallen Angel’s face. He wasn’t playful anymore. “How should we deal with it then?”
The fallen Angel had his hands on his chin. He was deep in thought. He didn’t answer the White Dragon Saint for a while.
“We can’t act rashly. The two of us might not be enough to explore the whole ruin,” said the Fallen Angel. “Why don’t we call the other two in this mission?”
The “other two” that the Fallen Angel referred to were the Red-Eyed Black Dragon and the Dark Enchanter.
