Nationwide Development: Spend Billions in Advance to Bind the Empress

Chapter 150 The Saintess Feels Powerless Against the Demon! That one sword strike from the swordsman

[Ding! Congratulations to the player for spending 1000 million and successfully upgrading the Ancient Xia Palace Disciple Token to the Ancestor-level token!]

[Note: The token is influenced by the legacy of the Ancient Xia Palace. Its aura can be instantly identified as genuine by the powerful members of the Ancient Xia Palace. There is no need to worry about counterfeit products.]

[Spending Effect: Players directly gain 85 loyalty points from all high-ranking members of the Ancient Xia Palace (out of a maximum of 100)]

The money bag rattled loudly.

Looking at the significantly increased spending amount, Shen Yun smiled broadly: 'Just over 760 million more to reach VIP level 6!'

His cumulative spending has now reached over 5238 million.

With the support of three characters, and only a mere 700 million, leveling up is just around the corner!

"Boss," Qin Shitong whispered as she approached.

"Once the magistrate's task list was posted, the monsters that received the message dared not invade Haicheng anymore, and the effect was remarkable! I'd like to post it in Lincheng and Yangcheng as well, what do you think?"

Lincheng and Yangcheng do not have county magistrates, but Shen Yun has the City Guardian Command, which allows him to see the location of the demons and monsters in the three cities!

Once the two cities have missions, I believe that as long as the evil forces aren't stupid, they won't dare to invade.

Qin Shitong continued, "As for the spirit stone reward for the mission, I mentioned it to Captain Jiang, and she said that the Demon Suppression Division headquarters will provide it to the cultivators in these two cities! All you need to do is use your ability to issue the mission."

“Sure.” Shen Yun nodded slightly. Since he didn’t have to pay spirit stones, and issuing the task would help him clear out the demons and monsters in the three cities, why not?

"Okay, I'll arrange it when I get back." Qin Shitong said, her tone hesitant.

"By the way, boss, a large number of residents have moved into Haicheng. They all believe that with you here, the city will be impregnable. I expect that even more people will move into the three cities in the future. How should we deal with this? If we leave it unattended, the number of people coming will only increase."

Without restrictions, the urban population will continue to grow!

"That is a problem..." Shen Yun pondered for a moment, then instructed:

"Announce the city's maximum population limit to the public. If it exceeds the limit, stop people from entering. Anyone who causes trouble should be shot on the spot! Just say it's my order."

Everyone only has one life, and everyone wants to find a safe area.

However, as the continent expanded and monsters rampaged across the land, and various forces plundered resources, few of these people dared to fight; most were cowards who feared death.

Instead of waiting until then to drive them away, it's better to set a population target now, so that it will be easier to deal with when the time comes.

'The boss's methods are becoming increasingly ruthless...' Qin Shitong nodded, secretly alarmed.

"I will discuss with Jiang Yue and ask the city's Demon Suppression Division and the army to implement this as soon as possible."

"Alright, then you guys get back to work." Shen Yun summoned his flying sword and returned home...

……

"Junior Sister Qingxue, you're already preparing to go down the mountain after just returning?" On Yaochi Square, Su Wan looked at Ling Qingxue, dressed in a martial arts outfit, preparing to descend the mountain, and said with a helpless tone:

"I really don't know how you cultivate."

In the blink of an eye, this junior sister had already reached the sixth level of the Dharma Aspect Realm.

"Senior Sister, I plan to descend the mountain to comprehend the laws of heaven and earth, in preparation for entering the Heavenly Realm." Ling Qingxue clasped her hands in a respectful bow and said softly.

Goodbye, Senior Sister!

If you want to forge your own path, Tianyi Realm is a watershed moment.

She had already spent a considerable amount of time in the cultivation space, but in everyone's eyes, she was working incredibly hard.

'Perhaps when she returns to the Holy Land, she will have far surpassed me...' Su Wan looked at the departing figure, feeling a little lonely.

Who doesn't want to attain enlightenment?

But when facing Junior Sister Ling, she felt a deep sense of powerlessness.

"This is her era." With a soft whisper, the sage in plain clothes patted her shoulder.

"See? She will be a miracle, a miracle that will be hard to replicate. And you are her senior sister, the future Holy Master of Yaochi. Once you understand this, it's that simple."

"Ancestor?" Su Wan was somewhat surprised.

"Aren't you going to protect your junior sister?"

"I can't protect her forever." Su Yi shook her head and sighed softly.

"Now that she has grown strong enough, it is time for her to face this vast world on her own."

Protecting the path can only be a temporary measure, because towering trees can never be grown in a greenhouse.

In particular, when she asked Qingxue if she had any chance of escaping from the Sage, the girl nodded affirmatively!

For this reason alone, Yaochi dismissed her protector.

This left Su Yi somewhat dazed. Ling Qingxue had grown to this extent in less than three months, something unheard of in history!

"I hope my junior sister succeeds." Su Wan silently offered her blessings, while also wondering if her junior sister would still be with that almost demonic-looking man once she surpassed the Saint level, entered the Great Saint level, or even became a Quasi-Emperor.

'I'm actually looking forward to it!'

……

'Qingxue is going to walk her own path!' Shen Yun, sitting at home, looked at the chibi-style illustration and sighed to himself.

This is the path that every great emperor must take.

With him silently supporting her behind the scenes, this girl will surely shock the entire continent!

'Look what Hongxi is doing.' Shen Yun switched the screen and saw Luo Hongxi instructing the Luo family disciples in sword practice. After thinking for a moment, he pressed the voice button:

"Hongxi, after you leave the Luo family, don't rush to the Sword Sect. First, go to the Tianxing Escort Agency in Shanhuo City of the Tianluo Dynasty. Some of my old friends and juniors live there; go and see them."

The claim that the younger generation is an old friend is purely fabricated. It's just that the brother and sister from the escort agency helped Hongxi back then, and in this life, it's Hongxi's turn to help them out.

If we don't get along, that's fine; if we do, let's just let Hongxi make a friend.

The brother and sister were of good character; at least Shen Yun thought they were fine.

Now that Hongxi has become successful, it would be good for her to help those who helped her in the past.

Even if the other party does not know her at present.

"A junior of an old friend?!" Luo Hongxi paused in her swordplay. "Since she knows you, young master, she must be very powerful!"

'That happened many years ago; now they're just ordinary escort monks.'

"Oh, don't worry, young master, Hongxi has remembered!"

"By the way, your clothes are a bit tight today?" Shen Yun asked curiously, noticing that her clothes were a size too small.

This made Luo Hongxi blush deeply: "I... my great-grandmother said that because of my special status, I have to dress up to look more mature and energetic..."

"I see. As long as you're not feeling unwell, that's good."

Luo Hongxi hesitated for a moment, then, suppressing her embarrassment, whispered:

'It's alright, young master, Hongxi will take care of it tonight...'

Towards the end, she became a little embarrassed:

'Oh dear! What if you say you'll help me clear my meridians and improve my blood circulation...?'

'Since you like it so much, young master will definitely take the opportunity to say something, so I'll just nod and pretend nothing happened...'

'Okay, then you go ahead and get busy. Spend more time with your family when you have free time.'

Luo Hongxi staggered and quickly planted her sword in the ground to steady herself.

Seeing the bewildered looks on the Luo family disciples' faces, she straightened up, her toes gripping the soles of her shoes, and said seriously:

"What are you standing there for? This move is all about surprise and catching the opponent off guard. It's a brilliant trick I created myself! If we weren't family, why would I teach it to you?"

Upon hearing this, the young men and women blushed with excitement, clenched their fists, and shouted excitedly:

"Thank you for your guidance, Sister Xie Hongxi!!"

"Brilliant! I knew it looked like she had fallen, it was my cousin's skillful touch! It really caught me off guard!"

"Of course! Just look at Sister Hongxi's talent for swordsmanship! It's absolutely top-notch!"

You should know that Luo Hongxi is the sword master of a super power, so her talent for swordsmanship is extremely high.

If she says this trick is foolproof, then it's definitely foolproof!

"Alright, everyone practice properly." Luo Hongxi waved her hand casually, turning around with a swift movement, her pretty face as red as a monkey's bottom.

'Luckily, there aren't any powerful figures watching around! Quick, quick, or we'll really be exposed...'
