Chapter 605: Hidden Peril (3)

It was true. Shen Yanxiao was only stating the fact. Du Lang and Uncle Nine’s concern made sense, but Shen Yanxiao was sure that the other three forces would still not let her build a city successfully if she were to follow their words.

If both actions would lead to the same result, why should she choose to eat the humble pie at the start?

Bullying the weak and fearing the strong were built-in human natures. If Shen Yanxiao did nothing and watched as the Blue Moon Dynasty took her resources, then it would set an example for the other forces down the road.

So, Shen Yanxiao decided to do something about it. She sent out two mythical beasts as deterrence. The two mythical beasts’ existence was enough to make the other three forces think about their next step. If they wanted to put her in harm’s way, they would have to plan for it; else, they would suffer significant losses.

“You are right. I have been too shortsighted.” Uncle Nine sighed. He had aged and become useless.

Shen Yanxiao smiled. “Uncle Nine, Brother Du, you have a lot of experience, and I will still have to count on you when we build the city. I am short-tempered and cannot tolerate any injustice. Why don’t you help me look after my city while I go out and work in the future?”

Shen Yanxiao’s words made Du Lang and Uncle Nine laugh. Shen Yanxiao was brave, but she was not reckless. Maybe she was a better fit for the Forsaken Land than they were.

“There is something I find strange. The Blue Moon Dynasty’s force is at the south, which borders the east.

It is a long way for them to travel here from their city, and demons run amok at the Forsaken Land. How did they arrive here safely? Besides, I didn’t see any powerful fighters amongst their crowd. How did they come here safely and mine with no concern at all?” The Forsaken Land was vast. People would have to take a long journey to travel across neighboring regions.

Without the protection of mighty warriors and advanced mythical beasts, it would be difficult to move forward in such a sinister place.

“Well, I don’t know. Well, they have been living in the Forsaken Land for a while, so they may have developed some survival skills.” Even Uncle Nine had doubts about it.

“So, what do we do about this?” Du Lang stepped into the mine and checked the empty tents and crates of obsidians.

“Clean it up and take away anything you can get your hands on.” Shen Yanxiao gave Du Lang an interspatial ring. Why would she step away from the obsidians when Qu Rui had dug them out for her?

Everyone sprang to work around the mine, and Shen Yanxiao walked to the abandoned tents. There was a pot of stewed meat over the campfire. They must have been in such a hurry!

Shen Yanxiao instructed the villagers to look through the tents. She did not intend to let anything of value go. She had to make the trip worthwhile.

Several loads of obsidians were packed into the interspatial ring. Then, it was mostly food and tools in the tents. The food was distributed, and the tools were put away into the interspatial rings too. Shen Yanxiao was one step away from asking her team to take down the tents and take them as well.

A few moments later, Evil Wolf came out from a tent with a bag half his height.

“I didn’t find anything interesting, but I don’t know what is inside this bag.”

“Open it.” Shen Yanxiao was unhappy about their loot. Qu Rui was a marquis’ son, so where were the gold, silver, and other precious items?

Evil Wolf opened the bag. An inexplicable smell wafted from it.
