“We need to use our strength and resources to help Fu Shuangni rebuild those nine cities. There are still some loopholes in this plan that need to be filled.”
“When Blood Lotus Daoist was still alive, my father wouldn’t think of any problems. But after Daoist Blood Lotus died, he would remember some problems.”
“Furthermore, he might find something wrong.”
At this point, Chen Qianxue paused. “We need to clear our names and not be suspected. All of this is related to the three of us.”
“…”
[Under Chen Qianxue’s persuasion, the Great Wei Emperor accepted the cities in the desolate mountains. At the same time, he also acknowledged Fu Shuangni, the City Lord of Great Yan City, as well as the other eight so-called City Lords who listened to Fu Shuangni’s commands.]
[To thank Fu Shuangni and the others for everything they did for the Great Wei Dynasty, the Great Wei Emperor Chen Fengyin gathered a large amount of resources from the national treasury and ordered a large amount of manpower. He helped Fu Shuangni rebuild nine cities.]
[Only now did the Great Wei Dynasty’s people know that there were nine very special cities in Savage Mountains.]
[Fu Shuangni accepted the Great Wei Dynasty’s funding and did not reject the manpower provided by the Great Wei Dynasty.]
[Two months later, the demon cultivators of the Great Yu Dynasty received the news that the ancient demon Daoist Blood Lotus had been killed in the Great Wei dynasty. All demons are silent!]
[They didn’t expect that the incomparably powerful ancient demon would die in such a hurry.]
[The demon cultivators of the Great Wei dynasty are all filled with regret.]
[If they knew this news and came to the desolate mountain ahead of time, perhaps that ancient senior wouldn’t have died.]
After realizing that the Imperial Court of the Great Wei Dynasty had been greatly weakened in order to deal with the ancient demon, many secret demon cultivators began to stir.
The territory of the dynasty did not become stable because the ancient demon had been eliminated.
Instead, it became somewhat chaotic.
News of the demon causing trouble spread from many places. Many citizens of the Great Wei Dynasty had been killed by demon cultivators.
The Imperial Court was willing but unable to do so.
This was because the Imperial Court had paid a heavy price in order to deal with the ancient demon.
As a result, the Imperial Court’s strength could not suppress the demon cultivators within the dynasty.
Let these demon cultivators find an opportunity.
To create chaos, to kill.
However, all of this had nothing to do with Fu Shuangni within the desolate mountain.
No matter how chaotic it was outside, it would not affect the depths of the desolate mountain.
After all,even the demon cultivators weren’t willing to go to Savage Mountain.
[Age 66, after two years of reconstruction, Great Yan City and the other cities have gradually taken shape.]
[Age 67, Fu Shuangni felt that she should be able to break through to the third level of the Foundation Establishment stage. However, considering that her cultivation didn’t seem to be very stable when she broke through to the second level of the Foundation Establishment stage, she decided to stabilize her cultivation a little.]
[Age 69, after five years of reconstruction, Great Yan City, Qinghe City… and the other nine cities have been rebuilt. Although they aren’t as big as they were at the beginning, they can be considered to have a lot of residences, clean streets, and cultivated farmland.]
The people in the refuge started to move to the new nine cities. After half a year, everyone had finally moved.
The refuge was not abandoned, and Fu Shuangni planned to use some foundations to build another city.
Due to the chaos in Great Wei, many people lost their homes. Even if they built the tenth city, they did not need to worry about the lack of population.
The cities in the mountains had the ability to absorb more people.
Fu Shuangni even felt that there were not enough people!
Any development was closely related to the population. If there were enough people in her territory.
That meant that there would be even more people with Immortal cultivation talent.
She could train these people!
In another one to two hundred years… Or even three to four hundred years…
These people would become the pillars of Savage Mountains.
Fu Shuangni was doing her best to get everything done.
She had to say, she was very busy.
Luckily, Fu Shuangni had good time management skills. While dealing with these matters, she did not neglect her own cultivation.
She was constantly stabilizing her current cultivation and was prepared to wait for some time before breaking through to the third level of the Foundation Establishment stage.
[Age 72, Fu Shuangni, who felt that she had reached the breakthrough point, chose to break through to the third level of the Foundation Establishment stage.]
[She succeeded in breaking through!]
[At the same year, Chen Qianxue broke through to the ninth level of the Foundation Establishment stage.]
[Age 73, after continuously absorbing refugees, the population of the cities in the desolate mountains was about to break through to ten million. Currently, just one city in Great Yan City alone had more than four million people.]
[These people include demonic beasts and half-demons. Of course, most of them are humans.]
[Qin Jiao has broken through to the tenth level of the Foundation Establishment stage.]
[Age 76, the followers of the Crown Prince of Great Wei have been broken into pieces. The remaining people are all useless people. Under the heavy pressure of Chen Qianxue, these people have no chance of making a comeback.]
[Some of the descendants left behind by the Great Wei Crown Prince, who are the descendants of the Great Wei Dynasty, do not dare to participate in the power struggle of the Imperial Court.]
[Without the protection of the Great Wei Crown Prince, if they rashly participate in the matters of the Imperial Court, they won’t have a good ending.]
[Age 77, Fu Shuangni heard that a major event that affected the entire dynasty happened in the Great Wei Dynasty. The Great Wei dynasty is going to choose a new Crown Prince, which is the new Great Wei Crown Prince!]
“This is indeed a big matter…” Fu Shuangni narrowed her eyes as she looked into the distance and muttered, “This time, no one will compete with Chen Qianxue for the position of Crown Prince, right?”
“In my impression, in the Great Wei Dynasty, other than the already dead Crown Prince, there is basically no one who is a match for Chen Qianxue.”
“Moreover, she mentioned in some letters that most of the ministers in the dynasty are on her side. If she can become the Crown Prince of the Great Wei Dynasty…”
“When the rewards are settled, who knows what good things will be settled.”
Fu Shuangni realized that she was actually looking forward to the rewards from another Immortal Cultivation Simulator.
Or rather, she was curious.
…
Great Wei Dynasty.
Imperial City.
The Emperor had decided to appoint a new Crown Prince, so it was naturally impossible to hide this news. Everyone in the Imperial City, be it Immortal cultivators or commoners, knew about this news.
They did not expect so many major events to happen in these few years.
These events, which were considered rare in a hundred years, had all happened to them.
It would not be an exaggeration to say that they had no regrets in this life.
“His Highness the Crown Prince died at the hands of the demon, so the person to take over the Crown Prince’s position should be the Second Prince, right? After all, according to the sequence, he would definitely be able to take over this position and become the new Crown Prince of the Great Wei Dynasty!”
“Second Prince? I heard that the second prince spends his days idling around and neglecting his cultivation. He’s already over two hundred years old and only has the cultivation of the fourth level of Foundation Establishment. If he becomes the Crown Prince, I’m afraid it would be difficult for him to convince the public.”
“Then how about the Fifth Prince? The Fifth Prince is talented and intelligent, and he even became the disciple of the Nascent Soul Grandmaster of the Dragon Cloud Cave. This can be considered a disguised form of roping in a great Immortal cultivation sect to stand on the side of the Imperial Court.”
“I don’t think it’s appropriate, right? The Fifth Prince is too close to the Immortal cultivation sect. If he becomes the Crown Prince… Then is he the Crown Prince of Great Wei or a disciple of the Dragon Cloud Cave?”
“That… Don’t you think that the possibility of Princess Chang Ning is the greatest?”
Amidst these discussions, a weak voice sounded out.
It was an itinerant cultivator who was trying to blend in with the topic.
Suddenly, the people who had been discussing earlier fell into silence.
