Chapter 707: Arrangements

"House-Building Technique."

At this moment, in a plain nestled between mountains and water in Qingzhou of the Four Seas and Bazhou, Li Yi arrived on a cloud and cast the House-Building Technique.

A city rose from the ground in an instant. Inside, houses were arranged in orderly rows, with small bridges and flowing water. Although they were all constructed of stone and appeared somewhat cold, they would look vibrant with just a little care.

"Dayi's House-Building Technique is becoming increasingly proficient; a large city can be condensed in an instant." On the auspicious cloud, Liu Guzi sighed with genuine admiration at the sight.

Li Yi said, "These are just minor arts. This city will be used to house the survivors who came from Earth this time. We will see how things go after the situation there stabilizes before deciding whether to return. Additionally, the Four Great Families will send various supplies in the shortest possible time. Although conditions are a bit harsh, food, drink, and daily necessities should not be a problem."

He had already instructed the Ghost God Zifeng to notify the Four Great Families of the Four Seas and Bazhou.

Although this world, much like ancient times, lacked sufficient productivity, there was no problem at all in supporting this batch of survivors.

"However, since this place has just been built, I need the two of you to put in extra effort. After all, order is currently lacking, and people's hearts are prone to chaos." Li Yi then entrusted the management of this city to Liu Guzi and Daoist Priest Gan.

"Rest assured, Taiyi. This old Daoist will handle this small matter well." Daoist Priest Gan agreed immediately; after all, he needed time to recuperate from his injuries, and to him, managing a city was an effortless task.

"Then I will trouble the two seniors. I will arrange for the Ghost Gods to scout the cross-dimensional point more thoroughly. If a powerful enemy arrives, we should receive news immediately," Li Yi added.

Only after a series of arrangements were made could this disaster be considered truly over.

For these survivors from Tianchang City, being able to survive was already good enough; they were in no position to be picky. They moved into the new city and, with the help of a group of investigators like Zheng Gong and Lin Yue, were assigned housing and settled down as quickly as possible.

Li Yi did not remain idle either. He, along with his master Zhao Ge, Zhao Qian, Rong Niang, Fatty, and others, quickly returned to Sanyang City.

"Summon the heads of the Four Great Families to my residence for a meeting." Li Yi acted with vigor and resolution, immediately having the disciples of the Zhao Zhao Wuguan go to notify the four family heads.

As the news spread.

The heads of the four great families also rode on Yin horses, bringing along several high-ranking and powerful elders from their respective families, and quickly rushed to Sanyang City.

It took less than half a day.

These high-ranking and powerful people of the Four Seas and Bazhou gathered in the main hall of the Li residence.

"Fan family head, Fan Wentian, pays respects to Young Master Li."

"Meng family head, Meng Daoxian, pays respects to Young Master Li."

"Qi family head, Qi Yunshan..."

Li Yi, sitting in the main seat, waved his hand: "We are all old acquaintances. There is no need for such formalities, family heads. Please, take your seats."

"Thank you, Young Master Li."

The four family heads appeared very cautious and nervous at this moment. They were no longer the ignorant frogs in a well they once were. After Fan Zhizhou, Zhao Ge, and others crossed dimensions, they had acquired a great deal of information about the outside world.

They knew the vastness of the heavens and earth and had witnessed the strength of the legendary Great Demons.

The entire Liangzhou region had been shattered by a single battle, leaving it scarred and devoid of life. Had they not seen it with their own eyes, it would be hard to believe that the powerful enemies from the outside world could be so terrifying.

Yet, those powerful enemies capable of shattering a whole region had now all been wiped out by the Li Yi before them.

With such methods, how could one not feel fear in their heart?

"At the foot of the Great Green Mountains in Qingzhou, I built a city today and settled a batch of survivors who crossed over. Your Four Great Families have only one task: immediately organize manpower to send supplies for food and daily use," Li Yi said.

"This is a small matter, Young Master Li, rest assured. My Fan family will cover the supplies for the city. After all, Qingzhou is my Fan family's territory, and transporting supplies is the easiest thing," said Fan family head Fan Wentian.

For a noble family, providing supplies for a city was indeed a small matter; it wasn't as if they needed rare treasures or gold and silver jewelry.

Li Yi did not refuse and continued: "The Four Great Families must immediately arrange for new Yin soldiers and Yin gods to station themselves in Ghost Street. Although I have destroyed Ghost Street, the cross-dimensional point remains and requires guarding. If you encounter a powerful enemy, there is no need to engage; just notify the Zhao Zhao Wuguan, and my master will arrange everything."

The four family heads agreed readily.

This, too, was a small matter.

To them, they had as many Yin soldiers as they needed, and there were plenty of Yin gods within their families. Sending a few to sit in command was not a difficult task.

Li Yi added: "When the lips are gone, the teeth are cold. The location of the cross-dimensional point has been exposed. The Four Great Families still need to prepare early. Rather than being trapped in the Four Seas and Bazhou, it would be better to summon disciples to step out of this place and fight for a future."

"Young Master Li's words are naturally very reasonable, but as frogs in a well, if we leave the Four Seas and Bazhou, we fear we will be wiped out in an instant." The family heads' faces were full of worry.

They certainly knew that in the current situation, they had to arrange for a batch of promising disciples to learn from Fan Zhizhou and cross dimensions to cultivate and become strong. If they kept shrinking back here, being wiped out by powerful enemies was only a matter of time.

But a group of martial artists with ordinary strength worried that they would die faster if they left the Four Seas and Bazhou.

Li Yi said: "Earth is currently fraught with crises. If you go directly, it will naturally be a life-and-death gamble. I will create a cultivation holy land in the Four Seas and Bazhou. Whether it's the Four Great Families or the Zhao Zhao Wuguan, select a batch of disciples with upright character to cultivate hard. After they have some self-preservation strength, let them go to Earth and cross dimensions to seek opportunities."

"The Liangzhou region is already barren, but the Floating Xiandao remains. Although it is fragmented, several large arrays within it might still be usable. I will have people renovate it; you martial artists can go there to cultivate."

"With Young Master Li's words, our Four Great Families are willing to follow Young Master Li's orders."

Upon hearing this, the four family heads were all extremely excited and knelt before Li Yi in unison to express their loyalty.

"Go and make arrangements." Li Yi waved his hand, signaling them to leave.

Seeing this, the four family heads naturally dared not linger. They bowed respectfully and then left in a hurry.

"Meng De, although the Floating Xiandao in Liangzhou is indeed a good place to cultivate, the spiritual energy in this world is thin, I fear..." At this moment, Zhao Ge frowned and voiced his concern.

"There is no need to worry about spiritual energy. I intend to leave behind a complete Mystic Object for you, Master, to manage. Although it is not enough to restore the spiritual energy of a whole region, creating a small cave-heaven paradise is no problem."

As Li Yi spoke, he took a gemstone from his Red Gold Five Elements Bracelet.

This was a Mystic Object he had bought with money in the Savage World: the Pearl of the Candle Eye.

As the powerful energy field of the complete Mystic Object radiated, terrifying energy fluctuations continuously spread in all directions with Li Yi at the center.

Li Yi realized the danger of this energy field and immediately put it away.

This energy field was a tonic for cultivators, but for ordinary people, it was poison.

"Big Brother, using a complete Mystic Object to create a cultivation holy land is too extravagant, isn't it?" Fatty said in surprise. He had also been to Earth and had been an investigator for a period of time; he was no ignorant martial artist.

Li Yi said: "I have to find a way out for the junior brothers of the Zhao Zhao Wuguan. I can't let them be trapped and die in the Four Seas and Bazhou forever. Evolution methods, immortal cultivation methods, genetic potions—whatever increases strength, use it. Once they have self-preservation strength, send them to Earth or to the Profound Immortal Continent. I left a teleportation array inside the Floating Xiandao."

"That teleportation array leads to an island in the Profound Immortal Continent called Azure Sky Island. The island master, True Person Tianhe, is a Soul Transformation Realm immortal cultivator, but he has already submitted to me and is my subordinate. Although he cannot provide much help, he can provide a safe foothold for disciples who go out to train."

Zhao Ge was surprised to hear this: "I didn't expect Meng De to have left a hidden piece on the Profound Immortal Continent side so early."

Li Yi said: "Master, a clever rabbit has three burrows. I am also prepared for a rainy day. When the time is right, I will teleport to Azure Sky Island on the Profound Immortal Continent and give True Person Tianhe a heads-up in advance."

"Since Meng De has planned everything well, let's do it." Zhao Ge pondered for a moment and felt that this matter was indeed feasible.

With the energy field of a complete Mystic Object providing spiritual energy, plus the blockade of the Floating Xiandao array, artificially creating a cave-heaven paradise would allow martial artists to enter and cultivate, take the path of dual cultivation, and then be sent out to train.

If they were lucky, having a few strong individuals emerge in the future would be an excellent thing.

Even if some disciples died outside, that was nothing.

In the current situation, fighting for a chance meant a future; sitting and waiting for death meant certain doom.

"Then I will leave everything to you, Master. I don't trust anyone else." Li Yi solemnly handed the box containing the Pearl of the Candle Eye to Zhao Ge.

"It's just opening another martial arts school in Liangzhou; this is a small matter. I will have Fatty assist me." Zhao Ge laughed a few times. Compared to others, going to the Floating Xiandao to teach disciples was simply a good thing to enjoy a comfortable life.

Li Yi said: "However, one shouldn't put all their eggs in one basket. Cultivating in Liangzhou is a good thing, but I am also prepared to open a cross-dimensional gate to let a batch of Zhao Zhao Wuguan disciples go to another, relatively more stable world to cultivate."

Subsequently, he recounted the existence of the Savage World.

He planned to let a batch of loyal and reliable martial arts school disciples go to Red Gold Mountain in the Savage World.

After all, Li Yi had already baptized the Zhao Zhao Wuguan disciples with diluted God's Blood and Life Water.

As long as they grew up, they could possess Savage bloodlines in the future, or even become God-Blood Warriors. If they added martial arts inheritance and the teachings of twenty cultivation experts, their future achievements might not be bad.

"Meng De thinks thoroughly. The Four Seas and Bazhou are already a cage; it's time to let them jump out of this place and go outside to fight." Zhao Ge's eyes flickered: "The Savage World is indeed a good place. Meng De, wait two days; I will go back and arrange a batch of disciples immediately."

As a traditional martial artist of the Four Seas and Bazhou, Zhao Ge had no reluctance about letting his disciples go out to train. Moreover, people who practiced martial arts were full of courage and all had the heart to go out and explore.

Now, because of Li Yi's existence, no one dared to offend the disciples of the Zhao Zhao Wuguan, let alone enemies. Crossing dimensions to leave was the only way out. If they fought for it, they might become gods in the future and live forever.

This temptation was fatal to martial artists.

"Good, then I will wait for Master's arrangements." Li Yi nodded. Staying in the Four Seas and Bazhou for two more days wouldn't affect anything.
