Chapter 431: Speak Properly

~12 min read 2,305 words

The sky was bright, and Li Zhi's confidant finally returned.

The confidant reported that the young lady didn't say a word and drove him out, and he tried to send letters in several times, but they were all thrown out.

Li Zhi had waited all night for the beauty but she didn't come, and he was already a bit annoyed. After listening to the confidant's words, he snorted heavily and decided to ignore that inexplicable woman.

In Red Shicheng, Tianyu was counting goods in the warehouse, watching the muscular warriors move box after box onto the cargo trucks.

The warriors filled one, and then pushed the cargo truck to the shed specially for parking cargo trucks. Dozens of cargo trucks were already parked in the sheds to avoid being soaked by rain.

This was the second merchant caravan heading to Azure Void, with three times the number of cargo trucks as the first time, loaded with a large amount of items on Wei Yuan's list.

It was just that there were not many offerings left, and they had to cope with the annual routine sacrifice, so only a few thousand people were prepared. However, Red Shicheng was already purchasing a large amount of offerings from other cities, and they would arrive by the next transaction.

While counting the goods, Tianyu suddenly turned pale, and his life aura dropped sharply!

Tianyu had already experienced this kind of blow many times, so he gritted his teeth and endured it for the moment, roaring at the porters: "Get your spirits up, all of you! You must finish loading within one hour, and we depart two hours later!"

Subsequently, Tianyu grabbed a Shaman tribe member beside him and roared: "Go and call all the drivers up; if one is missing, let him roll out of my caravan forever!"

Two hours later, the huge caravan slowly drove out of Red Shicheng, heading towards the distant east.

On the carriage, the weak Tianyu finally recovered a bit and said to himself: "... Maybe the signal is really bad."

The feeling of being worshipped descended, and Tianyu knew that a new batch of goods had been prepared in Azure Void, and he could go to trade.

Inside the highest main tower of Red Shicheng, several wild Shamans with wild auras looked at the departing caravan, all silent.

After a long time, a wild Shaman said: "Grandmaster Hongye wants us to form a coalition to crusade against the human race; now the reply time is almost here."

Another wild Shaman didn't answer this question, but said: "I think this child Tianyu is not bad; he is also a Great Shaman now, so at the next tribal assembly, we can call him to participate."

Although the wild Shamans' brains were mostly muscles, they also understood his meaning.

A female wild Shaman became impatient and said: "The human race's brocade is better looking than the Rain Silk of the Rain Country, and it's ten times cheaper! If Tianyu can bring back one hundred thousand bolts of brocade this time, then let the Rain Country fight the human race themselves. In the past, every time we fought together, we died the most and got the least!"

An elderly wild Shaman said: "Only one hundred thousand bolts is not enough for us to abandon the alliance with the Rain Country."

All the Shamans looked at the wild Shaman who proposed adding Tianyu to the tribal assembly, but at this time, an old Shaman who looked unlike anything, but with a huge skeleton, said slowly: "The human race's brocade will be endless... their soldiers and weapons will also be endless..."

All the wild Shamans changed color. Although this old Shaman was not a wild Shaman, he had strange abilities and could occasionally glimpse the future.

Rain Country, Giant Oak City.

Countless Shaman warriors were gathering towards this giant city, and Great Shamans also arrived one after another. On the main building in the city, three Nether Shamans sat opposite each other, and the scenery around each of them was constantly twisting.

A Nether Shaman made a sharp and piercing sound: "The Wild Ancestor tribe refuses to send troops! These wild pigs who don't talk about faith!"

"If Lord Grandmaster Hongye could recover, what would we fear from the mere two human Myriad Transformation Realms?"

"Besides the Myriad Transformation Realm, that guy named Wei Yuan cannot be underestimated. He has a move that can reduce life essence, which is very disgusting."

"It's a pity that the Cause and Effect Great Curse has already been used and cannot be used again."

"How did he survive under the Cause and Effect Great Curse?"

A sudden awkward dead silence filled the room, no one spoke, and then they automatically skipped this topic.

Azure Void had been crazily opening land, and now it was opening the fifth one million acres.

The grain of the new season was harvested again, totaling nearly nine hundred million catties. Now Azure Void was openly absorbing refugees, but the population had only just reached one point five million.

Wei Yuan had already increased the grain ration for ordinary people to five hundred catties per year, and those who were Body Forging were one thousand catties.

As a result, almost everyone in Azure Void of appropriate age and physical condition began Body Forging. At the same time, Wei Yuan was also continuously transporting grain to the west of Ningzhou, but the grain inventory was still increasing rapidly.

Wei Yuan had been busy, almost without time to rest. But he always had a place in his heart thinking about what identity he should use to go to the Bao family.

This question had already been asked of Li Zhi, but Li Zhi had thrown it back.

At this time, a bolt of heavenly thunder fell in front, startling Wei Yuan back to reality. In front was the thunder field, where five Thunder Crystal Trees were planted; the sky above this place was always covered with dark clouds, and every moment a thunderbolt would be induced down.

Around the Thunder Crystal Trees, sections of green wood with red patterns were placed. After a thunderbolt, many pieces of wood were charred by half, and after three or four more times, they would be completely charred.

This kind of Phoenix Blood Firmiana charred by thunder could replace Thunder Sand as the main material for gunpowder, and now it could be produced in large quantities in the boundary, making the production of gunpowder increase by five or six times.

After finishing the thunder field, Wei Yuan returned to his residence and checked the recent reports.

One of them came from a merchant firm in Zhao Guo. This merchant firm owned a Thunder Sand mine, medium in scale. Wei Yuan had always wanted to buy this mine, but the merchant firm was unwilling. Wei Yuan put down this report and picked up another one. This one said that the prices of several types of spiritual wood being purchased were all rising, and I'm afraid the purchase volume would decrease next year.

The prices of several rare metal ores were also rising sharply, but fortunately, only a few taels needed to be added to one thousand catties of molten iron to turn it into steel with excellent performance. Although the usage didn't look large, Azure Void's steel production was huge, so the amount of rare metal sand required was also huge, and the price had already risen three times.

At this time, Azure Void was getting bigger and bigger, and the various materials involved were also getting more and more. And the throughput of many single materials was already large enough to be placed in front of Wei Yuan.

After dealing with these official duties, another hour passed unconsciously.

Wei Yuan put down his pen, looking at the bright moon hanging outside the window, and the heaviness in the bottom of his heart rose again; how should he go to the Bao family?

Perhaps besides Li Zhi, he should ask a few more people, such as Xiaoyu, Cui Yu... but these people were all classmates, and everyone had known each other for so long, so Wei Yuan always felt it was hard to speak.

Under the moonlight, Wei Yuan let out a long breath, determined to put down his face, and still had to ask properly.

Just as he was thinking, a cultivator suddenly came to report that the Western Jin imperial envoy had arrived and was waiting outside Azure Void at this moment.

Wei Yuan was somewhat surprised, looking at the time; it wasn't even midnight yet, shouldn't the Western Jin imperial envoy be sleeping in the flying boat? Why did he suddenly run over, and refused to enter Azure Void.

Wei Yuan immediately left his residence and flew to the northeast; a moment later, he saw a flying boat quietly parked in the valley. The flying boat was not big, with the mark of the Royal Merchant Firm, it seemed this imperial envoy was here secretly.

Wei Yuan landed on the deck of the flying boat, reported his identity, and saw the boat door open. Zhao Tong walked out from inside, and upon meeting, he smiled: "Lord Wei, long time no see!"

!.

Wei Yuan didn't expect it to be him; in the past, when Zhao Tong came to Azure Void, he always waited directly at the Guest Town in the center of the boundary. Why was he sneaky this time?

Not expecting Zhao Tong to come, Wei Yuan came in a hurry and didn't have immortal silver at hand, so he took out a medicine box and stuffed it over, saying: "There is a little thing in here that can extend life by three years, similar to Blood Yingluo, but the negative effects are not as serious as Blood Yingluo. I really don't have anything good, so Eunuch, please accept this pill."

Zhao Tong's breathing was slightly rapid, he gripped the medicine box tightly, and asked: "Does this medicine conflict with other pills?"

"It is not affected by other life-extending pills, three years without discount. It is only similar to Blood Yingluo, so just treat it as taking a small portion of Blood Yingluo."

Zhao Tong carefully put the medicine box back into his sleeve and said: "A life-saving good thing!"

After saying that, he pointed to the cabin and said: "The main person who came this time is not me; you go in through this door, walk to the end, and you will see her. Hurry up and go!"

Wei Yuan entered the cabin, which was abnormally quiet, with no one around.

He walked to the end, reached out to push the cabin door, and heard the sound of the door closing behind him; the cabin door he came through closed automatically and locked.

Wei Yuan wasn't panicked and pushed the door into the room.

This was a spacious cabin, with soft black animal skins spread all over the floor. A peerless enchantress was leaning on a soft cushion, her bare feet stepping on the animal skin, set off as white as snow, and each nail was almost transparent.

Wei Yuan's gaze uncontrollably followed the ankles upward, climbing along the calves, then crossing the knees, and was blocked by the skirt. Just as Wei Yuan was about to sigh in his heart, he saw her reach out and lift the skirt up by a large margin!

With Wei Yuan's concentration, his heart also jumped fiercely a few times.

Imperial Consort Yuan smiled but didn't smile, hooked her finger, and said: "Come over!"

Wei Yuan came to her front, but there was only one soft cushion in the room and no other seats, so Wei Yuan sat directly on the animal skin.

She picked up the wine glass, took a small sip, then pushed it to Wei Yuan, and beckoned to him again.

Wei Yuan leaned forward, close to Imperial Consort Yuan.

She leaned against Wei Yuan's ear and said in a voice as thin as a mosquito, which had to be listened to with full concentration: "Drink this cup of wine, and then you will be able to see that segment of cause and effect from that day..."

Wei Yuan was shocked: "What cause and effect?"

Imperial Consort Yuan gently stroked her lower abdomen and said: "This cause and effect."

Wei Yuan instantly understood the cause and effect, shocked: "This... could it be..."

"He is lying in the Chunhua Hall now; there were strange phenomena in the sky when he was born." Imperial Consort Yuan smiled at the corner of her mouth.

Wei Yuan's brain was in a mess.

"I heard you have had a lot of troubles recently; I will solve them for you all at once!" Imperial Consort Yuan picked up the wine glass, held Wei Yuan's chin with one hand, and poured the remaining wine in the cup into his mouth.

A candle flower suddenly exploded in the cabin, and the red with dark fragrance permeated, covering everything with a thin veil.

The fragrance in the air was greasy and sweet, as if it could drill into one's heart from every pore. When this fragrance drilled into the heart, it was a little itchy, but it was itchy in the heart, couldn't be scratched, and couldn't be eliminated.

Wei Yuan's vision was covered with a layer of hazy red, watching her get up, the skirt slipping off, her snow-white body crawling over on the pitch-black animal skin, pushing his weak and powerless body down.

A strange feeling suddenly exploded, as if something had grabbed Wei Yuan's soul and wanted to lift it out of his body.

Wei Yuan's mind was confused, saying: "Wait, wait a minute! Don't be so hesitant... let's speak properly..."
