Chapter 533 - 228 Competition Continues! Disciple and Sect Leader!
"The disciples of the Ascension Gate are quite formidable..."
"No, I should say that the senior sister of my sect is really formidable. Even after encountering three consecutive battles with major sects, her aura remains undisturbed. Her injuries are quite severe, yet she behaves as if nothing is wrong with her."
Song Yinghan still feels embarrassed to meet with the female disciples of the Ascension Gate. She felt that her relationship with Yuchi suddenly just happened. Although she didn’t have any aversion to it, it was still too abrupt. So now, when Yuchi goes back to chat with the disciples, she returns to the mansion, living alone in an empty house, which is rather leisurely.
"Yes, the physical qualities of the Ascension Gate’s disciples are really strong. Even if they are injured, it’s as if they aren’t hurt at all."
"Ah, the more I think about it, the more I feel father was muddleheaded. Why did he so confidently believe Yuchi would fail easily?"
"That’s impossible."
"And now I have no way to resolve it. It’s best to stand at a distance and watch their conflict unfold just like Yuchi suggested—eat the melon quietly and wait for things to have a concrete outcome before discussing them!"
So be it. Miss Song is quite bored now. The day is almost over, just waiting for tomorrow’s match.
From the first to the third day, it’s Qinghan, the little girl. The fourth day is Xu Feiling’s, and from the fifth to the eighth day, it’s Feng Dongran. I don’t know if Feng Dongran will have good luck, at least not as miserable as Xu Feiling, who almost got completely beaten up by three major sects’ members today and became dumbfounded.
It’s truly not easy.
...
In Xufu Town, it’s already June 11th, year 988 of the Nine Provinces Calendar. Winter has long passed, and with summer quickly approaching, business in Xufu Town is proceeding orderly.
During Yuchi’s absence, the number of mansion constructions outside Xufu Town has increased. The exact number of mansions hasn’t been fully counted yet.
But at the rate of these constructions, at least one or two towns can be emptied before it snows again at the end of the year. Sometimes, when the townspeople pass by the town entrance and see these buildings gradually rising, they indeed express some admiration.
Watching Xufu Town getting better and better before their eyes, the real townspeople are surely delighted to see such a scene. Even the local government unusually invested money to help build some roads.
Not only that, but the construction of the Great Tang Prison has finally begun.
The Great Tang Prison is ultimately located sixty miles away from Xufu Town, which is quite close. Under the blueprint designer’s instructions, many cultivators have already come over to help dig the caves.
The Great Tang Prison remains the same, hiding itself in a cave.
The scale of the Great Tang Prison isn’t very large either; the number of people is about the same as a sect. Once the cave is hollowed out, everything can be transported over directly. However, because the Great Tang Prison is a prison, its construction requirements differ from other mansions. Even with the help of cultivators, it will still take three years to complete the Great Tang Prison.
"Where exactly has Yuchi gone?"
As one of the people responsible for the construction of the Great Tang Prison, Han Ming, the beautiful woman, stands on the empty mountaintop, swinging her legs from a treetop, which appear somewhat bulky in armor. She appears even more discouraged.
Song Yinghan said her relationship with Yuchi was very sudden. She, too, indeed feels the same way...
When she returned, she felt something was off. How did she impulsively send herself over like that? Even if she encountered troubles at that time, a lot of things happened to her that left her helpless. But to drag Yuchi down with her like that... is that really okay?
This is how things have turned out now.
After that sudden incident with Yuchi, he left immediately. Although he mentioned he’d be back around September, there’s still three months until September.
"Ugh."
"Will he abandon me just like that?" The golden armor on the beautiful Han Ming woman looks somewhat cumbersome.
A Core Formation Stage cultivator is still surprisingly fearful.
While Han Ming was deep in thought, someone came looking for her. She looked over in confusion and saw that it was the little old man, the Prison Director, appearing like a big radish.
She jumped down from the treetop, respectfully clasping her hands in greeting, "Prison Director, how come you’re here?"
"I came to see how things are going here."
The little old man stood beside the big tree, watching the bustling craftsmen at work below, a satisfied expression appearing on his face:
"Not bad, you’ve performed very well recently, establishing a very good relationship with the guild. Once the Great Tang Prison is built, even if someone tries to seize it, with mortal support, we need not fear anything."
The reason for the good relationship between the Great Tang Prison and the guild is because they wanted to build a prison near Xufu Town. As for the reason, Yuchi learned about it when he was in Canglan City—there’s a mineral vein around Xufu Town, and the gold content is quite explosive.
