HEAVENLY DAO RANK: I WAS EXPOSED AS A SWORD GOD
Chapter 322 Building the City
When he saw Great Immortal Mi Lu, Immortal Lu Chi actually thought that he was dreaming or hallucinating.
He did not even dare to shout loudly, afraid that he would shatter this beautiful illusion.
However, as Great Immortal Mi Lu rushed over and hugged her, she realized that everything was real.
Mi Lu is not dead. He really found his way here.
After countless years, they finally reunited.
At this moment, Immortal God Lu Chi felt as if he was in a dream. The joy and excitement in his heart turned into a deep embrace.
Murong Xingqiao was overjoyed for Great Immortal Mi Lu and Immortal Lu Chi when he saw them reunite. A touching smile appeared on his face.
He left quietly, leaving the two of them to reunite. There are a lot of things they want to say after not seeing each other for a long time.
Murong Xingqiao found Li Yu and told him about Great Immortal Mi Lu and Immortal Lu Chi.
After hearing this news, other than being surprised, Li Yu was of course happy for Great Immortal Mi Lu. The sky loves these loyal people.
Now that the lovers have been reunited, it seems that their journey has not been in vain. If he could find Emperor Yu Mountain and obtain the Primordial Pearls, this journey would be complete.
“Alright, let the couple reunite properly. Don't bother them tonight!” Li Yu said with a smile.
Everyone nodded with a smile. However, there was no day or night here, and it was easy to ignore the time.
......
However, as an outsider, Li Yu was still very sensitive to the passage of time.
Following which, the natives of this valley gathered around Li Yu to express their gratitude to him and Zhong Yu. They were willing to listen to Li Yu's arrangements, just hoping they could restore order and the rules set by Uncle Li.
Li Yu handed the matter to Zhong Yu.
Zhong Yu did not refuse. This was his hometown, and the people here were his former relatives. Many have even lived here with him.
He hoped this place could be better and could be peaceful forever.
However, he knew that since this place was at the Heavenly Dao Rank, it was impossible to go back in time. This place will definitely welcome more outsiders.
For example, more and more people would come to visit the Wang family and the Mu family in the future.
In the past, this place was very vast and sparsely populated. Everyone can rely on simple rules and oral promises to maintain normal order.
However, although the increase in outsiders would definitely cause a storm here, there would also be a lot of unnecessary disputes.
Therefore, Zhong Yu hoped that everyone could build a city together and select highly respected people to form a Council of Elders to manage this city and form a united faction.
Furthermore, this place will belong to the Qingyun Sect in the future.
As long as they belonged to the Qingyun Sect, most outsiders would probably hold back their greed and not dare to have designs in this place. They will not cause trouble here and will obediently listen to the arrangements and follow the rules.
All the rules of this city would be refined based on the order set by Uncle Li back then to formulate more perfect and detailed rules and regulations.
A series of rules will be set for the management and arrangement of outsiders.
According to Zhong Yu's initial idea, he would set up a residence and a special cave area to receive outsiders and give them a place to cultivate.
However, if outsiders wanted to cultivate here, they would have to pay a reasonable tax.
Half of his income was for the construction and management of the city, while the other half belonged to the Qingyun Sect.
Zhong Yu's idea was unanimously approved by the natives, and they even applauded.
They knew that Zhong Yu had a point.
Moreover, they had just overthrown Hong Zun's government and oppression not too long ago. They do not want to repeat the same mistake.
They were willing to submit to experts and form a stronger and better faction here to protect their home.
This was especially true for Zhong Yu's idea of dealing with outsiders. It resolved their concerns and made a plan that would benefit both of them.
Of course, Zhong Yu's idea satisfied Li Yu. It coincided with his inner thoughts.
With the strength and influence of the current Qingyun Sect, it could definitely answer the hundreds of voices in countless worlds. Many factions were willing to take the initiative to submit and follow in his footsteps.
However, Li Yu was well aware that it was not her true minions. To be exact, those people were willing to listen to him just because he was strong enough.
It was more for their own benefit.
Building relationships based on benefits and prevention is not so reliable.
Only the faction he had built and nurtured personally would truly belong to him and be loyal to him. He would become an entity that united with the Qingyun Sect and fought for the same ideals.
Therefore, Li Yu felt that she should start nurturing and building her own faction in the various worlds.
In the future, if he wanted to rebuild the Heavenly Court and rule over a myriad of worlds, relying on the Qingyun Sect alone was definitely not enough.
If he wanted to establish the true number one faction in the universe, he would have to extend his hand to every corner of the universe.
This was his first hand that was stretched out to the Nether Cloud Void.
The original expert here would be the strongest bone in his palm.
Of course, other than establishing his own faction, he had other ideas. He wanted to recruit juniors from various factions, especially the sons of gods and elites from various factions, young people who might become the rulers of various factions in the future, into the Qingyun Sect.
This way, it could strengthen the bond between the Qingyun Sect and the various factions.
"Sir, what do you think?" Zhong Yu looked at Li Yu.
"Very good. Zhong Yu, you are more familiar with this place. Stay behind for now and practice your thoughts! Li Yu said with a smile.
"Yes, I won't let you down!" Zhong Yu said happily.
He was happy that Li Yu could trust him, and he was even happier helping his former hometown and friends build a new home.
It could make them live peacefully in this paradise forever.
Zhong Yu quickly gathered everyone in the valley and began to discuss and formulate the city's construction plan.
“Zhong Yu, I plan to stay here with your sister-in-law in the future!” Great Immortal Mi Lu suddenly said.
Back then, he had planned to live in seclusion here with Immortal Lu Chi. Now that they had finally arrived and reunited, he did not plan to leave.
“Sure, with you in the future, I can even help the sect master manage this place!” Zhong Yu said with a smile.
This is indeed the best home for Great Immortal Mi Lu. Moreover, it would be easier for him to help Li Yu keep an eye on this place in the future.
After that, under everyone's brainstorming, a specific plan was quickly formulated. The city was named the Eternal Cloud City.
Furthermore, the first generation Elders Council, led by Great Immortal Mi Lu and Venerable Xue, was chosen as the future top management organization of the Eternal Cloud City.
Murong Xingqiao and Tai Ri provided many valuable experiences during this process. After all, Murong Xingqiao controlled the Mystical Bird Palace and many of his auxiliary cities in his previous life.
Although Tai Ri did not form a faction on her own, she was knowledgeable and knew a lot, so she helped fill in a lot of important details.
Everything went well. After the various rules, order, and functions of the Eternal Cloud City were confirmed, everyone prepared to begin construction.
It was not difficult for cultivators to build a city capable of accommodating a million people.
Construction of the city began immediately. The cities that would be built here were different from those of the mortal world. It was not the kind of city with houses and roads crossing.
This city was more like the structure of a sect.
"Hehe, greetings, City Lord Zhong!" Wang Lin arrived beside Zhong Yu and bowed with a flattering expression.
He knew that a city would be built here, and it belonged to the Qingyun Sect of Li Yu. As the City Lord, Zhong Yu would have to obtain the approval of the Qingyun Sect if he wanted to cultivate in this blessed land in the future.
"What's the problem?" Zhong Yu asked seriously.
“I heard that a city is being built here. My Wang family wants to contribute to Emperor Yu and this place!” Wang Lin said with a smile.
Zhong Yu nodded when he heard Wang Lin's words. He really needs labor. After all, it would be faster to build a city with more people.
“Hm, okay. In that case, your Wang family can help with the extraction of wood! Zhongyu.
"alright then. City Lord, let us know if you need anything! Wang Lin was overjoyed.
He was well aware that as long as they could contribute to this development, their Wang family would have a chance to have a residence in the Eternal Cloud City in the future.
After receiving the order, Wang Lin excitedly gathered the Wang family together and began to help with the pick-up of the wood.
After which, the Mu family ran over to pay their respects to Zhong Yu and also expressed their hope of contributing to the construction of the city.
However, they also mentioned the additional conditions that they hoped would allow the Mu family to cultivate here in the future.
This made Zhong Yu unhappy. The Mu family kept saying that they wanted to return the favor and were willing to submit to Li Yu and work for her. However, they had not done anything before discussing the conditions. The Mu family seems too eager to succeed quickly and is quite hypocritical.
Even if the Wang family was also pretending to be civilized, at least they were willing to take action.
In fact, Zhong Yu had decided that since the Wang family took the initiative to help this time, he would give their families a free cultivation place in the city in the future.
“We have enough power now, so there is no need to trouble your family. In the future, the Eternal Cloud City can accept outsiders to cultivate here, but you will have to pay taxes. The exact price will be announced later!” Zhong Yu said seriously.
Upon hearing this, Mu He's expression changed as he immediately reacted. He was a little worried just now. He should not have directly raised his condition.
For a moment, he felt a little awkward. He cupped his hands with a bitter smile. “Additional person is additional help. We're…"
Before Mu He could finish his sentence, Zhong Yu flew away.
He felt that if your family was truly wise, they should take the initiative to work on their own. After all, no one was limiting their actions.
If they were unwilling to help, they could forget about cultivating here for free.
Seeing Zhong Yu leave, Mu He's expression became even worse. He knew he was too stupid.
“Master, let's take the initiative to help. As long as we do something, Sect Master Li will definitely see through it. Since we want to work for Cultivator Li, we have to show our sincerity!” A member of your family said.
Mu He was silent. He really wanted to slap himself twice. How could he say such a stupid thing now?
He said that he wanted to return the favor and serve, but he immediately asked for a profit. Even if a saint met such a person, he would feel troubled.
“Come, let's help too!” Said Mu He. He felt that regardless of whether they could stay in the end, he could at least show their sincerity to Li Yu.
With the addition of the Wang family and the Mu family, the speed of the construction of the Eternal Cloud City instantly increased significantly.
“Zhong Yu, I will hand this place over to you for now!” Li Yu prepared to take everyone to Emperor Yu Mountain first.
“Alright, hope your journey is safe, Mister!” Zhong Yu bowed with his hands cupped. He knew that with Li Yu's strength, there was no danger in Nether Cloud Void that could threaten him.
Therefore, even without him taking the lead, they could still successfully find Emperor Yu Mountain.
Li Yu nodded, then she left the Immortal Cloud Mystic Realm with Murong Xingqiao, Tai Ri, and Ritian.
With the system notification, he roughly locked onto the location of Emperor Yu Mountain. As long as he searched in that direction, he would definitely find it.
As he advanced, Li Yu realized that the number of Devouring Clouds here was clearly decreasing. Furthermore, after the Devouring Clouds met Li Yu, they fled into the void to hide.
Clearly, Li Yu had managed to intimidate the entire Nether Cloud Void.
The mystic realm Immortal Realm was not close to Emperor Yu Mountain. Li Yu took almost three days to find him.
The so-called Emperor Yu Mountain was also a vast continent.
The continent was a bit like a disk floating on Nether Cloud Void as if floating with that cloud.
This continent is magical. The terrain on both sides is almost identical. From afar, it was like a shadow reflected in the water.
Only by looking carefully can one see the difference in details.
In fact, in Nether Cloud Void, these two sides could be called earth, and the sky above could be called sky.
An extremely majestic mountain peak stood in the middle of the continent.
The mountain peak looked like an incredible god from afar. It stood between heaven and earth, majestic and domineering.
The soil on both sides was covered with lush vegetation. It was filled with vitality, and strange flowers and trees could be seen everywhere. The scenery was in no way inferior to the Nine-Tailed Mountain.
When he saw this continent, Li Yu really felt a sense of familiarity, as if he had dreamed of this place.
Perhaps these were some memories engraved in his blood.
“This place is so weird!” Tai Ri's face was filled with shock. This was the first time he had seen such an interesting continent.
However, the moment Li Yu saw Emperor Yu Mountain, a system interface appeared in front of him.
It was the introduction to Emperor Yu Mountain.
It turned out that Emperor Yu Mountain was originally a strange stone floating in the Primordial Chaos. Then, it was brought back by Li Yu's previous life.
It was embedded into the Primordial World and became a strange mountain.
Later on, Li Yu's previous life became the true emperor of the human race. After he stood at the top of the world, he carved it into his current appearance.
He purified it into a magical treasure and built a blessed land.
However, the system did not explain why Emperor Yu Mountain appeared here.
'So it was a masterpiece from my previous life. It was only fitting that this continent looked like a spinning top from afar.'
