Aleya anxiously gazed at .
Young master, how about weescape?
I bitterly chuckled:
Escape where? Its a felony to escape from confernt in Eternal Heaven State. The mont we run, my dad will definitely send out an order for arrest and make my life a living hell. For good or for bad, I am now West-Resisting Citys City Lord and have a bit of foundation. If by any case the two of us really do flee, then well really beco poor without any money left over.
Aleya lowered her head in contemplation.
Sigh, this is probably still too difficult for her smol brain to comprehend.
I patted her shoulder and reassured:
Relax, West-Resisting City is in fact the best choice that I can choose right now. Unfortunately, my dad didnt expect this.
Aleya doubtfully inquired:
Why?
I shook my head, changed my posture to lie down on carriage as I held my money box, and lazily clarified:
If he and I were to switch positions, I would definitely confer him a slightly obvious wealthy city in the center of Yunyang Territory. On one hand, I would wear down his fighting spirit by exposing him to a life of wealth, while on the other hand, I would be able to set up layer upon layer of inforrs inside the city. On the outside of the city, I would set up a barrier made up of lower class peasants and use the innurable surrounding cities to block him inside his own city, cutting off all possibilities for him to revolt and trapping him in this cage for the rest of his life. Doing so can be regarded as taking revenge on him and this is also the safest road to success.
Aleya shuddered at the thought of it.
I detected that I had possibly spoken a bit too much, thus I smiled and said:
In short, West-Resisting City isnt a bad choice. Think about it positively, the powers that surround us in all 4 directions arent uniform, maybe well co across an opportunity. In the case that there isnt a damn opportunity and the Demon Race invades us, we can just escape and say that the Demon City seized control of the conferred city. Its sothing that happens all the ti to humanity, so when the ti cos, my dad and the King wont be able to say a word about it. If anything, Ill be given a beating and a scolding about how Ive caused them to lose a lot of face, then be told to get the hell out of Yunyang. Sadly, they havent been keen on doing this for these past few years.
I yawned:
But now I still have sothing I dont understand.
Aleya quizzed:
What is it?
I switched my gaze to the scenery passing by and pondered as I spoke:
The reaction of the masses. According to principle, if a person lives in fear of being robbed every day, his enthusiasm for work will drastically decrease. But West-Resisting City shouldnt be capable of giving the masses so kind of guarantee. So does that an there is soone capable of resisting the Demon Race living in West-Resisting City? Impossiblewhile it is possible for one person to resist the Demon Race, its only possible against the lower class Demons. However, the kind of people who are able to accomplish this feat all have outstanding power and there should be any reason for soone with this kind of power to guard West-Resisting City After all, my old man isnt exactly a wise lord whos able to win over the undying loyalty of others.
Is this very important?
Aleya asked.
I nodded.
Yes. Because if we look at the situation based on the description, West Resisting City is already on the verge of collapse. Before I think up a way to make the city ample and bountiful, the most important thing for to do is preserve the city. If theres a guardian inside the city and Im able to recruit him as my subordinate, much of my future work will beco much easier.
Since I dont want to personally enter the battle, also its a pain in the ***.
The inside of the carriage is very comfortable.
I felt myself getting a little drowsy.
As I was dazed, I heard the sound of water from the outside.
When I pushed aside the window curtains to take a look, I discovered that the carriage was passing by a lake. Several black-gowned won encircled the lake while a white-haired woman was completely subrged in the clear and limipid lake, with not even her hair floating on the lake surface. Because we were too far away, I couldnt clearly see what she looked like.
Look, the skys already dark.
Why would you co over here to bathe this late instead of sleeping??
How willful.
I felt that I shouldnt look any longer. I felt that there was a large faint yellow exclamation mark over the land and that if I looked any longer, a super inconvenient side mission would be forced onto . My primary purpose right now was still to go to West-Resisting City to take a look at the situation, so if I could avoid these troubleso matters, then Id avoid these troubleso matters.
Thinking up to here, I yawned again and hugged Aleya
****, hugged the wrong one.
Taking advantage of the fact that she hadnt discovered my actions due to being asleep, I hastily turned over, hugged my money box, and closed my eyes.
The heavy gold coins issued a k-k-klink sound, which made happy just by listening.
Listen, this is the most reassuring sound a person can hear.
Feels like Im in a beautiful dream~
