Chapter 363: Chapter 363: My Surname is Not Zhao, The Relocation Plan

“Zilong War General, are you leaving?”

The few Element Gathering Realm elders were very reluctant.

With great effort, they had used all the resources of the nearby cities to push Zilong War General’s cultivation level to the peak of the Element Gathering Realm. Yet, he was going to join the Misty Sect. What would happen to the safety of this area afterward?

Who will protect us?

The elders became increasingly worried.

Zilong War General looked at the elders and said, “Respected elders, I have already encountered a bottleneck. Continuing to stay here, I will have a hard time entering the Spirit Sea Realm in this life. Only by joining the Misty Sect do I have a chance.”

“Moreover, after I join the Misty Sect, I will often come back to visit all of you.”

“With the name of Zilong War General, I believe no one would dare to cause trouble in this area.”

“Our Yanyun Thirteen Cities will not be in any danger.”

Zilong War General held the hands of the elders, speaking earnestly.

“Yanyun Thirteen Cities?” Ye Feng was slightly surprised when he heard this name, and then looked down from above, realizing that there weren’t so many cities in the area, immediately feeling confused.

Hearing the words of Zilong War General, all the elders sighed.

They knew a true dragon could not be confined in shallow waters.

The day for Zilong War General to leave was inevitable.

“Don’t worry, our Misty Sect’s recruitment is predicated on destiny. Let me take your pulse, Zilong War General, to determine whether you have a predestined connection with our Misty Sect.”

At that moment, Ye Feng spoke up, causing surprise among those present.

“The Misty Sect’s recruitment is based on cultivation level, isn’t it? It’s actually… destiny?” Zilong War General blinked, looking confused.

What if he did not share a destiny with the Misty Sect, wouldn’t the words he had just spoken to the elders be very awkward?

“Sect Master Ye, please.”

Zilong War General extended his hand nervously.

Ye Feng took Zilong War General’s wrist, also unsure in his own mind.

To be honest, he certainly hoped to recruit Zilong War General into the sect to enhance the overall strength of the Misty Sect.

“Ding, meets the conditions for joining the sect. Can be admitted to the Elders’ Hall as an Inner Sect Elder, or, arranged by the Sect Leader.”

The System’s voice rang out.

Ye Feng’s furrowed brow gradually relaxed.

“Good, Zilong War General, you have a destiny with our Misty Sect. If you’re willing, you may join us at any time,” Ye Feng said with a smile.

With the addition of this peak Element Gathering Realm cultivator, his physical strength could surge sharply.

Not to mention exploding a common Demon King, he could at the very least stand toe-to-toe with one, or even overpower them.

“I… I can really join the Misty Sect?”

Zilong War General felt joy descend from the heavens, almost wanting to slap himself in the face to confirm he wasn’t dreaming.

“Of course, you can.” Ye Feng nodded, took out the Book of Names, “Come, report your name, origins, root bone, cultivation level, and such basic information first.”

“Li Zilong, upper-grade root bone, peak of the Element Gathering Realm, from the people of the Yanyun Thirteen Cities.”

“You’re not Zhao Zilong?”

“My surname is Li!”

“…”

Ye Feng was speechless; at first, he thought Li Zilong’s name was Zhao Zilong, but it turned out he was mistaken.

Thump!

As the Sect Leader’s Seal was stamped, Zilong War General was officially inducted into the Misty Sect and became a member of the Elders’ Hall.

At this moment, Ye Feng felt his physical strength increase significantly, giving him the confidence to punch through a mountain peak with one fist.

“Now that Zilong War General has joined the Misty Sect, we old bones also wish to congratulate you on a future as bright as brocade,” the few Element Gathering Realm elders said, bowing deeply with faces full of reluctance.

At that time, Mo Ying leaned close to Ye Feng and whispered, “Sect Leader, why not take this opportunity to relocate the cities in this area to the vicinity of Whitefloat City?”

“Hmm, yes!” Ye Feng’s eyes brightened.

He had been preoccupied with recruiting Li Zilong that he had forgotten about the need to establish a large city with a population exceeding three million.

So, Ye Feng coughed lightly, cleared his throat, and said, “Actually, there’s no need for such sorrow. Instead of seeking temporary shelter, it would be better to relocate entirely to Whitefloat City near Misty Peak.”

“Relocate?”

Li Zilong and several elders were stunned into silence.

Yanyun Thirteen Cities didn’t have thirteen cities, but the total population in this area was almost a million, and relocating them all to Misty Sect thousands of miles away was exceedingly difficult!

“This is the best solution,” Ye Feng stated.

If the population of Yanyun Thirteen Cities merged into Whitefloat City, it would immediately surpass one million. How to expand further was a matter for the future, something to plan for later.

“Actually, we are willing to relocate near Misty Sect, it’s just the journey seems too far,” an elder shook his head.

If it were just the cultivators relocating, that would be manageable.

With their speed, it would take only several days to arrive.

But if you included the common people, that’s where the difficulties lay.

“There’s no need to rush the relocation. At this stage, the question is whether you all in Yanyun Thirteen Cities are willing to move. As for the specifics, we can discuss those later.”

Ye Feng paused and added, “Of course, during the relocation process, our Misty Sect will offer assistance and protection.”

If Yanyun Thirteen Cities were to integrate entirely into Whitefloat City, then nearly a million people from here would become subordinate citizens to Misty Sect.

Some of them could even join Misty Sect and become Sect Disciples, strengthening the Sect.

Ye Feng took this matter very seriously.

“In that case, we are willing to relocate,” several Element Gathering Realm elders decided unanimously.

Aside from Li Zilong, Yanyun Thirteen Cities had only these few Element Gathering Realm elders. Their commands were certain to be followed by others.

“Then, go back and make preparations. Sect Master Ye will return to the Sect with Zilong first,” Ye Feng returned to the Spirit Snake Flying Boat.

Li Zilong and the elders discussed briefly, then also boarded the flying boat, nodding to the disciples.

Whoosh!

The Spirit Snake Flying Boat continued on its way at full speed.

Several hours later.

“Is this the Sect? Clouds of smoke curling upwards, pagodas towering over mountains and rivers, spiritual platforms atop the peaks, spiritual springs cascading down, and rich spiritual energy. What a genuine holy land for cultivation!”

Li Zilong looked down at the four peaks of Misty Sect and couldn’t help but express his admiration.

The area around Yanyun Thirteen Cities didn’t have a single spirit vein. If it were not for the unity of all the cities, combined with Li Zilong’s high talent and good luck, he wouldn’t have reached his current realm.

“You are an Elder; you will live on Feilai Peak. Near the Elders’ Grand Hall, there are several free-standing wooden buildings. Tianzi Number One Building would be quite suitable for you,” Ye Feng pointed to a wooden building below and said.

“Thank you, Sect Leader,” Li Zilong nodded.

At this moment, the Sect Disciples in the Sect noticed the Spirit Snake Flying Boat descending upon the top of Misty Peak with many people on board, and they immediately gathered around.

“Sect Leader is back!”

No one knew who called out first, but more and more people rushed to the top of Misty Peak to find out what was happening.

“Look, this time there are over a hundred more junior brothers and sisters. It seems the Sect Leader’s trip to County King City went smoothly.”

“Ah, there is also a handsome young man clad in silver armor with an unfathomably deep aura. Who is he?”

The disciples discussed excitedly.

“Fellow disciples, these are Ning Xiangxiang, Lei Xiaohu, all Second-generation Disciples and your junior brothers and sisters,”

Ye Feng put away the Spirit Snake Flying Boat and began the introductions, “This one is the newly promoted Elder of the Elders’ Hall, ‘Li Zilong,’ at the peak of the Element Gathering Realm, skilled at wielding the Silver Spear. If anyone wishes to train with such a Spiritual Artifact, feel free to consult him at any time.”

“Ah, it’s an Elder!”

“Element Gathering Realm at its peak, that’s so strong!”

The disciples all looked toward Li Zilong, causing his face to turn red with a bit of embarrassment.

“Mo Ying, Jiaojiao, go arrange living quarters for the new Second-generation Disciples,” Ye Feng instructed.

“Yes,” the present First Generation Disciples acknowledged and led Ning Xiangxiang, Lei Xiaohu, and the hundred or so new disciples down.
