"No problem!" Master Li agreed immediately, "Please follow me."
He felt heavy in his heart.
Even a heavyweight figure like Du Yunshi from the Heavenly Palace has come to Baimao Mountain. What kind of magical power does the secret formation on the mountain have?
It has not been easy for the Xiaoyao Sect to have existed for more than a hundred years. We must not let it fail in his generation!

Amidst the undercurrents and the bustle of Tianshui City, half a month passed quickly.
This was a month when the news of Tianshui City's eastward expansion spread widely, and it was also a half month when heroes from all over Yao Kingdom flocked to the capital with their own magical powers.
He Lingchuan even heard that a large number of people from friendly countries and foreign businessmen also rushed to Tianshui City, hoping to get a piece of this feast of wealth.
In addition, because the "Black Armored Army" had been everywhere in the Golden Plains, a large number of Yao people had retreated back to China. Many of these wealthy people returned home just in time for the skyrocketing housing prices in Tianshui New City. Seeing this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, they immediately invested all the money they earned abroad.
Today’s Tianshui City belongs not only to the people of Tianshui City.
The more the merrier.
From top to bottom, from officials to civilians, everyone's enthusiasm was like firewood poured with oil, making the new city burn with fire.
There is an opportunity here.
There is wealth here.
Here is a chance to get rich overnight.
Money from Tianshui City, and even money from surrounding areas, poured in like snowflakes and flew into the national treasury.
Just as the story goes, the treasury was filled with gold and silver; the ropes used to tie the money broke under the weight.
How many years have passed since the Yao Kingdom's treasury and King Yao's inner chamber were so full?
The construction of the new city was also in full swing. Although there were no trees or buildings yet, and it was still just a field of yellow mud, the ground leveling plan had already been put into place. Whenever someone came to check out the progress, the government-appointed local lecturer would take them around for a tour:
"This is the neighborhood, this is the canal, this is the lake, and this is the street lined up on both sides of the water. When the time comes, you can go shopping while riding the boat, so your feet won't get tired. If you like something, you can go ashore and buy it..."
"Still nothing?" It had just rained, and the place where a canal was said to be built in the future was now just muddy. Walking through it, one foot deep and one foot shallow, it felt like planting rice in a field. The little bit of green in the field of vision was the grass roots that had not been dug up under the big rocks.
"Don't look at the yellow earth here. In another seven or eight months, no, five or six months, the wide and straight bluestone street will be completed, and the houses that everyone buys will also be able to lay the foundation stone and take shape. Hey, such a big project, what's wrong with waiting for a year or two? Can't you wait or can't he wait?"
If there are still people who don't believe, the preacher will take them to see government offices and schools:
"Look, the government office is almost finished! Here, walking towards here, there are the town warehouse, the timber yard, the money warehouse and the wine warehouse, and the farthest one is the Duzuoyuan... They have all built outer walls, can you see it?"
"Hey, where is this?"
"Pharmacy."
"Where is it?"
"The Temple of the Gods will be built soon!"
At this point, the questioner was satisfied. Government offices and various public facilities had been built, and the new city was a foregone conclusion. It would only take a little time.
During this period of time, the streets of Tianshui were bustling, prices were low, and almost everyone was as happy as if it were Chinese New Year.
The family that used to quarrel over trivial matters has now become one, thinking and working in unity. Even the mother is pleasing to her own naughty child. The chaos has turned into a loving mother and filial son. The daily topics of the family are about the new town’s residential land, where the land price is rising fast, how much money they can borrow, and whether it is enough to buy another piece of land in the new town...
The restaurants and inns in Tianshui City were packed with people drinking and getting drunk day and night.
The prices in restaurants have doubled, and the prices in inns have tripled, but it is still difficult to get a table or a room.
When He Lingchuan crossed the street at night, he saw bright lights on both sides, birds singing and dancing, crowds of tourists and prosperous businesses. He couldn't help but sigh at the prosperity that was like a raging fire.
"The foundation laid by Yao Kingdom over the past 200 years is really good. There is no other place in the Shining Gold Plain where business is conducted at such a high frequency." Although he was mentally prepared, the speed at which the residential land appreciated and the enthusiasm with which people pursued it still far exceeded He Lingchuan's expectations.
He went to the palace twice to report on the progress of Youhu Villa, and King Yao was smiling both times, and his happiness was visibly evident.
King Yao also showed rare generosity towards He Lingchuan, who had suggested the eastward expansion of the new city. He gave him a high-profile reward, but he did not give him any magical instruments. Instead, he opened up the sales and purchasing rights of several exclusive commodities to Yang Shan.
With this sales right, there are a lot of tax reductions.
He Lingchuan thanked him solemnly, but the soul-catching mirror in his arms snorted, "Old fellow, you are just talking big but not delivering on your promises. What sales and purchase rights are you giving me? In the future, hey, hey, hey!"
As one of the close ministers, You Rongzhi reminded King Yao twice: "The Liang envoy and the temple seem to be unhappy recently. What do you think...?"
He mentioned it in a tactful way, but in fact, the gods were somewhat dissatisfied. Even You Rongzhi felt that King Yao had not been respectful enough to the gods recently.
In the past, the temple always came to the Yao King to make requests, asking for cooperation here today and rebuilding there tomorrow. Although the gods and priests were not easy to serve, it was always a good thing to have communication.
Unlike now, Lord Liang himself has not looked for King Yao for more than half a month. At most, he sent his priests to do some work handover with the officials of the Yao Court.
You Rongzhi felt a little uneasy. He thought this was a bit dangerous.
But when he mentioned it for the second time, King Yao waved his hand and said nonchalantly: "What are you afraid of? When the treasury is fuller, we will prepare some food and weapons, and go to the Golden Plains to fight eight or ten battles, and the gods will be satisfied."
He knew very well what the gods wanted.
As long as the Da Yao has strong soldiers and horses and full treasury, this is not a problem!
He will definitely give back those evil spirits to the gods later.
King Yao was in high spirits, so You Rongzhi could not say anything more. He knew the king's temper very well, and he must not offend him at this time.
That night, two pieces of news came from the Yangshan Chamber of Commerce in Jucheng:
The allied forces have been going smoothly recently and have been unstoppable, capturing the three major towns of Bisha in succession and are eyeing the capital.
When the time comes, heaven and earth will work together. Now the Allied Forces are in a dominant position, and support comes from all directions. On the contrary, Pixia has changed from an aggressor at the beginning to a weak party now, and half of its territory has been occupied. But after reading all the information, He Lingchuan believes that there are still variables in this war, and Pixia still has a chance to turn the tables.
This variable is Yao State.
Recently, the Yao Kingdom's treasury has been gradually filled, and King Yao no longer has to live within his means. He is in a good mood, so he waved his hand and provided Pisha with an endless supply of money, food, and weapons. Two mercenary groups "voluntarily" came to assist Pisha and entered the country enthusiastically.
