Wu City in the Eastern Profound Region.
Chu Yuan had returned, bringing the Medicine Tribe with him from this journey.
For a grand city accommodating billions of people, a few million people from the Medicine Tribe hardly made a difference.
"We have finally safely left the southern Profound Region!" Stay connected through M V L
Upon their arrival at Wu City, the Medicine Child deeply exhaled, the southern Profound Region had once been the land of the Medicine Tribe, but for the last thousand years it had been like a prison, causing extreme suffering.
"The Great Wu Dynasty, the gods of the Martial Emperor!"
"This is the belief of billions of people!"
"Like a holy emperor, countless people wholeheartedly believe in the Martial Emperor!"
"Heavens, even the most common people in the Great Wu eat this kind of rice!"
...
Upon arrival in the Great Wu, the Medicine Child and others had their perspectives changed by the fortune of the empire and the daily life of its people. They had only read about such an Imperial Dynasty in ancient texts, its prosperity unblemished by any other thought.
By seeing this fortune, Medicine Child knew this empire could not have been established by the devious and treacherous.
The demonic empire, the demonic way endures.
The human empire, the human way endures.
The fortune of a nation could reveal the demeanor of its sovereign ruler.
"Good, you are safe."
At this time, Chu Yuan sat upon his throne, dressed in black, emanating a majestic aura as he looked towards Medicine Child.
"How does your Highness plan to settle us?"
This was what the Medicine Child cared about most.
"The Medicine Tribe excels at cultivating divine drugs, and the medicinal materials of my Great Wu actually come from the Qiankun Trading Alliance, I have no means of cultivating them myself. But your arrival makes me feel invigorated. From now on, you will hold the position of Supervisor of Divine Drugs and enjoy the fortune of the Great Wu."
Chu Yuan said, "I will dedicate a piece of land rich in spiritual energy for the survival of the Medicine Tribe. What do you think?"
"Agreed." Medicine Child responded, "The Medicine Tribe cultivates medicinal classics, draws strength from divine drugs. The more they plant, the faster they develop their skills."
"My empire rewards battle merits. Besides the most basic welfare, to receive better treatment, you need to contribute. This means, the more divine medicine the Medicine Tribe contributes to the national treasury, the more you will receive in return. This is something you should understand."
Chu Yuan said.
"Doing this is merely my duty," Yao Ling said.
"I have quite a few seeds here with me, let the Pharmacy Tribe plant them," Chu Yuan said, "Remember one thing, the more Divine Drugs you turn in, the more Elixirs you'll receive. And thus, as Great Wu grows more robust, the Pharmacy Tribe will sooner or later regain its former glory."
"I understand!"
Yao Ling had wholly placed herself in the role of a subject to Great Wu, demonstrating extreme loyalty to her ruler.
She took the seeds from Chu Yuan and was once again astonished!
"The seeds given by Your Majesty are many folds stronger than the ones available to the public! The Divine Drugs cultivated from these seeds will be even more potent!" Yao Ling stated, surprised.
"Yes, these seeds are unique to my Great Wu."
Chu Yuan had a seed transformation device which could enhance the medicinal potency of the seeds. There was previously no such talent in this domain, but the arrival of Yao Ling fulfilled this vacancy.
"Also, Yao Ling, you should upgrade your powers. All these sects in Southern Xuanyu disrespect and look down upon you mainly due to your lack of strength. Don't you wish for the day when the Pharmacy tribe again takes command of the Southern Xuanyu, with everyone from the clan returning there with their heads held high?"
Chu Yuan knew.
Yao Ling possessed an exceptional gift, and under the oppression of the sects of Southern Xuanyu, she managed to cultivate up to the Spiritual Communication Stage in just a few decades.
If given a better environment, her cultivation would erupt like a volcano, rapidly advancing.
Blood from a Celestial God Warrior was akin to the blood trace of the noble beasts in the demon clan, which would leave a trace of God's brand.
In fact, Yao Ling was the one with the richest bloodline among the Pharmacy tribe and inherited the most from her ancestors, the reason why she became the clan's chieftain.
Chu Yuan also hoped for more powerhouses in Great Wu, and for Yao Ling to grow quickly.
He did not wish for Yao Ling to become a mighty warrior, but the higher her cultivation, the higher would be the quality of Divine Drugs she nurtured.
Once he repaired the Taiyi Pill Furnace to the Emperor grade, he could use it to concoct Emperor-grade Divine Elixirs and enhance the power of the nation.
"I understand!"
Yao Ling nodded confidently, "I will return to Southern Xuanyu, and I won't let Your Majesty down. Your Majesty gave my Pharmacy Tribe new life, and my tribe naturally has to repay you. One day, the Pharmacy Tribe will reclaim its past glory and keep up with the re-emerging brilliance of the Great Wu Dynasty!"
In her eyes, she was serving a Great Emperor, just like her ancestors did.
She understood that although the Pharmacy Tribe had left Southern Xuanyu, the sects could still harm them if they found the tribe.
"Go and focus on your cultivation."
Seeing the burning determination in Yao Ling's eyes, Chu Yuan nodded.
Yao Ling was impressive - a resilient mind and strong talent. She would become one of his most capable assistants in the future.
This time, he had struck a jackpot!
