Chapter 357: Chapter 357: County King City, Reactions of the Major Powers
The disciples had varying expressions upon hearing the conditions for promotion to a Two-Star Rank force.
Previously, they were mostly unaware of these many requirents, especially regarding the construction of a large city.
“But, Whitefloat City currently has only about eight hundred thousand people, right? There’s still a gap of two hundred thousand from one million, and that’s just the minimum requirent,” Wang Ping’an expressed his concerns.
“Why not just move the people from our miniature world out here?” Ji Ziling ca up with this idea.
The miniature world she was from housed quite a number of people; if they were all relocated to Whitefloat City, it could significantly contribute.
“Miniature world?” Liu Ming’s eyes widened as he looked at Ji Ziling, wondering silently what conditions the disciples of Misty Sect had, to have a miniature world at ho—could it be another secluded family?
“Right, we could also transfer people from other cities, like Five-Colors City, Beacon Fire City, and such.”
The disciples offered their suggestions one after another.
“It might be better to encourage childbirth. One birth a year, and in ten years, we should definitely break through one million,” Mo Ying said abruptly.
“Pfft… You think they’re pigs?” Ye Feng almost choked on his food.
“Actually, the best thod is relocation,” Liu Ming, who had seen many cases of city rgers, said. “As long as Whitefloat City develops, there will surely be people willing to move here.”
A glint flashed in Ye Feng’s eyes.
If there were another chance to change the land, couldn’t he transform Whitefloat City into a cultivation paradise?
In that case, without even advertising, people would move there on their own.
In the following ti, Ye Feng continued to discuss the details of the Sect’s promotion with Liu Ming, learning a lot.
Half a day later, they arrived at County King City.
It was a sprawling and bustling super city, occasionally dotted with mountains where nurous Spirit Veins existed, emitting rich spiritual energy.
Any place in the city had a spiritual energy concentration not weaker than that near a Miniature Spirit Vein. Looking around, the sky was brimming with swirling clouds and intertwining lights, a truly celestial scene.
“This is County King City.”
Liu Ming pointed at the highest mountain in the city, “That is the sole dium-sized Spiritual Vein in County King City. It’s precisely because of its presence that we have the flourishing and powerful County King City.”
Before long, the Spirit Snake Flying Boat landed atop a magnificent hall built at the peak of the high mountain.
“Sect Master Ye, this is the Sect Main Hall. Within a hundred li radius, all is my domain,” Liu Ming said with a smile.
Ye Feng retracted the Spirit Snake Flying Boat and, accompanied by his disciples, stood before the grand hall, surveying the surroundings.
This mountain was an isolated peak, but it also housed a Minor Spirit Vein.
Near the mountain, there were many palaces, all offices of the Sect Main Hall, with many Elent Gathering Realm Elders in residence.
“Wow, Sect Master Ye, what a rare guest!” Elder Mo Wen erged from the hall and, upon seeing Liu Ming and Ye Feng, promptly ca over to greet them.
“Sect Master Ye is here to recruit disciples and sect mbers. Elder Mo, please take care of the arrangents,” said Liu Ming before entering a secret chamber in the hall to refine the Bloodline Purifying Pill.
“Sect Master Ye, please follow ,” Mo Wenshi led Ye Feng and his group down the mountain to a nearby plaza.
“Elder Mo, are we going to recruit people right here?” Ye Feng looked around and noticed that there weren’t many people around.
At this rate, they wouldn’t be able to recruit many.
“I will first spread the news of Misty Sect’s recruitnt, and then tomorrow, Sect Master Ye can recruit here,” Mo Wenshi said with a smile.
“So, we need to advertise first!” Ye Feng instantly understood.
Soon, a ssage spread from the Sect Main Hall, quickly sweeping through the entire County King City.
“Misty Sect’s Sect Master Ye Feng, along with several of his disciples, has personally co to our County King City to recruit people of fate. The specific ti and place is tomorrow, on the Sect Main Hall’s plaza.”
“Is it the recently risen Misty Sect?”
“Exactly!”
“Let’s go take a look.”
“Aren’t you already a disciple of Liuxiang Pavilion? What are you doing there? Surely, you’re not planning to betray your sect?”
“Silly, of course, I am going to look at the beauties!”
“…”
Similar discussions gradually beca the topic of conversation for the people of County King City during their leisure ti, catching the attention of all the major forces.
“`
County King’s Manor.
Shu Hongyu learned that Ye Feng and Mo Ying had arrived at County King City to recruit disciples, and she very much wanted to go and see for herself.
However, she couldn’t appear as the Commandery Princess.
Doing so would have too great an impact.
The princess of County King City, the future sovereign, had to abide by the city’s rules to maintain mystery, and she shouldn’t have too much contact with other forces to avoid being criticized for lack of fairness and justice.
“Yue’er, please arrange for so young n and won who have not yet joined any major sects to participate in the Misty Sect’s recruitnt and initiation ceremony so it doesn’t look too shabby,” she instructed.
Shu Hongyu gave the order.
“Yes,” a maid quickly withdrew.
“Sigh, this is all I can do to give you guys more support,” Shu Hongyu leaned against the intricately carved railing, stood on tiptoe, and gazed into the distance towards the area where the Sect Main Hall was located.
A luxurious mansion.
“That Ye Feng is really bold, daring to recruit people within the territory of County King City, showing no regard for the both of us!” Han Yi smacked the purple-red couch in anger upon hearing the news from Han Er.
“Big brother, should we hire an assassin…”
“Hire your grandpa!”
Before Han Er could finish, Han Yi sternly interrupted him, scolding, “I haven’t settled the score with you for the last attempt on Gong Qingqiu’s life! I gave you five thousand Spirit Stones, and you, you idiot, embezzled a large part of it to splurge in Goulan—it’s utterly reprehensible!”
“Big brother, I realize my mistake,” Han Er imdiately knelt on the ground, trembling with fear.
Among the top hundred One-Star forces.
“Heard the Misty Sect has co to recruit, huh, they really don’t see us as anything!”
“Exactly, County King City is our turf, why should we let talented youngsters just slip through our fingers?”
“I heard it’s Lord Liu from the Sect Main Hall who personally invited Ye Feng over; we’d better not say too much,” soone ntioned.
The mbers of various One-Star forces were arguing.
At first, they were indignant, but after learning that Liu Ming personally invited Ye Feng, the sect masters dared not speak out despite their anger.
Within the Top Ten Noble Families.
“Ye Feng is here?”
“A One-Star force rising in power, possessing strength to suppress Demon King Level powerhouses—terrifying indeed!”
“We must try to foster a relationship with this person.”
“Moreover, if there are disciples in our family who haven’t joined other sect’s forces, they could also try to join the Misty Sect and serve as a bridge for our family to establish good relations with Ye Feng.”
“We shall follow the Clan Leader’s orders!”
Compared to the top hundred One-Star Sects, the heads of the Top Ten Noble Families had much more guts and the grace and poise befitting a great family; they were willing to allow family disciples to join the Misty Sect.
In their eyes, the Misty Sect was a worthwhile investnt, not to be offended but to be befriended.
For their noble families, this was also a good thing.
Ye Feng was unaware that his arrival had caused such a stir in County King City.
At the mont, he and his disciples had settled into a secluded courtyard near the Sect Main Plaza.
The place even had a Spirit Gathering Array, and the concentration of Spiritual Energy here was at least several tis that of a Miniature Spirit Vein.
“Sect Master Ye, this is one of my properties, usually vacant. I apologize for the inconvenience of temporarily lodging you and your disciples here,” Mo Wenshi said, standing at the door, bowing his hands.
“Thank you, Elder Mo Wen!” Ye Feng expressed his gratitude.
After sending Mo Wenshi on his way, Ye Feng and his disciples found their respective rooms, and then they went up to the rooftop on the third floor. Looking down at the brightly lit County King City under the night sky, they were filled with excitent.
“Now, this is what you call a ga-city!”
Ye Feng exclaid with emotion.
Stretching for a thousand miles, the imnse city with a population exceeding a hundred million was truly terrifying!
And this was only an affiliated city under the rule of a top Two-Star Rank force; one could only imagine how prosperous the capital city of Mystique Kingdom, and even more so, the Holy City, must be?
