C27 Water Suppression Order
"Well then, this Son of God shall graciously accept your offer," Ye Tianhan said with a smile, his gaze shifting to Lin Jiayao. Her cheeks flushed a deeper shade of red, her eyes alight with fervent admiration as they met his.
The East Sea Dragon King, realizing he had successfully secured the support of the demon clan, felt a weight lift from his chest. "Having my daughter serve the Son of God is a privilege for the East Sea Dragon Palace. Should you require anything from us in the future, do not hesitate to command it," he said earnestly, presenting a token to Ye Tianhan.
"Son of God, this is the Water Sealing Token from the East Sea Dragon Palace. It can call upon tens of thousands of our soldiers at your beck and call. Please accept it."
"Water Sealing Token?" Ye Tianhan's eyes sparkled with intrigue.
In that instant, three world announcements burst onto the global channel, causing a stir among the players.
World Announcement: Congratulations to player Serene Highness for successfully claiming one of the hundred and eight stunning beauties, Lin Jiayao, as a servant! Join us in celebrating his victory!
World Announcement: Congratulations to player Serene Highness...
World Announcement: Congratulations to player Serene Highness...
Players who had been diligently leveling up were taken aback by the sudden news. "A beauty as a servant? Am I reading this right?"
"Can this really happen? But then again, in modern times, servants can be... well, you know..."
"Lin Jiayao? Isn't she that beauty from the East Sea Dragon Palace?"
Envy and jealousy rippled through the player base, but the following announcement silenced the world channel for a few heartbeats.
World Announcement: Congratulations to player Serene Highness for triumphantly conquering the East Sea and ruling over the East Sea Dragon Clan, becoming the first player to establish a faction! A special faction gift bag is your reward!
Ye Tianhan swiftly opened the system's generous gift bag, and a cascade of notifications chimed in.
"Congratulations! You have received 10,000 Glazed Tiles!"
"Congratulations! You have received 10,000 Primal Woods!"
"Congratulations! You have received 10,000 Primal Wood x5!"
An abundance of building and authority materials filled Ye Tianhan's inventory, ready for use.
Fortunately for Ye Tianhan, his formidable good fortune Saint Body allowed him to lift his heavy inventory with ease. Had it been any other player, they might have found themselves unable to move at all.
"Not bad!" Ye Tianhan murmured, his eyes narrowing as he perused the documents before him.
Originally, he had intended to embark on the path of authority early on, but now that it was accessible, he decided to pursue both avenues simultaneously.
"Dragon King, I need these documents to construct the Son of God's Mansion in the Heavenly Court within half a month. I intend to use it," Ye Tianhan instructed, realizing the potential of leveraging the East Sea Dragon King's influence. It would be a waste not to make use of it.
"Son of God's Mansion?" The East Sea Dragon King paused, taken aback. Before he could respond, he was presented with an array of ancient construction materials from Ye Tianhan, leaving him astonished at the sheer quality of resources at the Son of God's disposal.
With a swift nod, he agreed, "Yes!"
Without further ado, the East Sea Dragon King excused himself from Ye Tianhan's presence and, along with the Turtle Prime Minister and the shrimp soldiers and crab generals, hastened to the Heavenly Court to begin the construction of the Son of God's Mansion.
Ye Tianhan's aim in building the Son of God's Mansion was straightforward: to establish his status and prestige among the demon race, akin to the Crown Prince's Mansion at the heart of the Imperial City.
Moreover, the Son of God's Mansion would serve as a foundation for Ye Tianhan's future prosperity. Most importantly, its completion would significantly accelerate his cultivation speed. It was akin to the demon race's experts seeking a cave abode that would enhance their training—the materials provided by the system alone ensured that the Son of God's Mansion would possess formidable attributes.
Once the East Sea Dragon King had departed, Lin Jiayao, left standing alone, cast a shy glance at Ye Tianhan.
"From now on, you'll follow me and assist with my daily affairs, and when you can, gather some intelligence," Ye Tianhan said with a gentle smile.
Lin Jiayao nodded vigorously, her bashfulness evident as her beautiful eyes remained fixed on the tips of her shoes.
Before long, Ye Tianhan, with Lin Jiayao by his side, mounted the majestic Golden Roc and set off toward Heaven Mending Village.
If his hunch was correct, Mayor Lee and the elite players from Magic Land would be there, awaiting his arrival.
Soon enough, Heaven Mending Village came into view. This time, it was a far cry from the desolate novice village of the past. Human Tribe members had taken up residence, and vendors hawked clothes, weapons, and information, infusing the village with a vibrant hustle and bustle.
Ye Tianhan hadn't even arrived when the players under Mayor Lee's command, along with the other elites, were already eagerly anticipating his entrance.
Amidst their anxious wait, an elite player's exclamation cut through the air, "Look, Serene Highness has arrived!"
At his call, the once lively Heaven Mending Village fell into a hushed silence as countless players turned their fervent gazes toward Ye Tianhan.
Players from the Violet Rose Palace and the Temple of Unity, seizing the moment, knelt down and cried out in unison, "Greetings, Senior Brother!"
Ye Tianhan landed, his attention bypassing the crowd to focus on the players under Mayor Lee's control.
The player known as Mud Xiaolong, clearly a devout follower from Owhuigro, was brimming with zeal.
"Serene Highness, at last, you've come. I was beginning to think you wouldn't. Here's the elite team of ten thousand I've assembled just for you, ready to boost your experience points and cultivation," Mud Xiaolong said, barely containing his excitement at Ye Tianhan's presence.
He had been concerned that without Ye Tianhan, their grand plan for the Ten Thousand Elite Team would fall apart.
A quick survey by Ye Tianhan confirmed that the levels of Mud Xiaolong's elite players were impressive, matching those he had encountered in the ideal world.
"So, shall we begin?"
Promptly, Sword Great Sage, the leading elite player, sent a team request to Ye Tianhan. Once Ye Tianhan accepted, all the experience points and cultivation gains they'd farm in the monster zone would be his, catapulting his level upwards.
Of course, Ye Tianhan had set his experience points and cultivation to be shared among the group, ensuring that his gains would not be distributed to Sword Great Sage and the rest.
Sword Great Sage, along with the ten thousand players, showed no hesitation. Following Ye Tianhan's lead with a nod, they swiftly plunged into the wild monster zone, embarking on a fierce battle against the creatures that lurked there.
