477: Chapter 477 Settling the Human Race
Three days later.
Below the Star Pavilion, unlike a few days ago, many buildings had appeared in this area.
These buildings were all created by humans, and those humans were precisely the ones who had come out from within the moon god ring!
After obtaining Fei Qianqiu's consent, Fang Bai settled the humans here.
However, they were also subject to the management of the Star Pavilion, which had formulated a set of rules specifically for them.
Anyone who violated the rules would be severely punished!
For now, the human race could only temporarily live under the thumb of others.
Fang Bai had no choice but to do this because if he continued to keep them inside the moon god ring, the lifespan of ordinary people would wither away even faster.
“Is this the world of a second-level civilization? It's so prosperous!”
“These exotic plants and flowers are things the Blue Star never had!”
“A palace floating in the sky... is that the place called the Star Pavilion?”
“I heard the Star Pavilion possesses several Tenth Rank experts; their strength is absolutely terrifying!”
“Tenth Rank... is this realm as common as cabbage over here?”
“I wonder if I can go further in this civilization...”
“Don't worry, under Mr. Fang Bai's leadership, our human race will definitely establish a foothold in this world!”
“...”
Su Yunsheng and the other Ninth-Rank Experts had gathered together at this time.
Ever since the Gu Family was wiped out, the major Noble Families had been incredibly well-behaved, and they had also reached a brief peace agreement.
The Old Ancestor of the Fu Family looked up at that city in the sky and lamented, “Only now do I understand what it means to be a frog at the bottom of a well.”
The others also had complicated expressions, agreeing with those words.
In their own era, how glorious they had been. In that world of thin spiritual energy, being able to reach the Ninth Rank was already a ceiling-level existence. But upon arriving in a higher-level world, they discovered that their strength was simply not worth mentioning.
Ascension was nothing but a scam!
“With our talent, it's not like we don't have a chance to take another step forward...” Su Yunsheng's eyes burned with heat, as if he had already seen a certain future.
The spiritual energy here was far more robust than on Blue Star. Cultivating here would undoubtedly yield twice the results with half the effort!
“That we were able to survive is all thanks to Fang Bai,” Old Ancestor Su lamented. “Such a great kindness is something we can never repay. It seems we can only let little Su Su repay him.”
The other ancestors cursed inwardly, 'Damn you, you old geezer! You make it sound like you're the one losing out, but this is clearly selling your daughter for glory!'
While they were chatting, inside the moon god ring...
Fang Bai was currently chatting with several of his companions.
“Are you sure you want to stay here?” Fang Bai asked, looking at Qi Tian and the others.
Qi Tian grinned. “Of course. We're just ants if we go out; we might die an unnatural death any day. It's better to cultivate bitterly here. Besides, the time flow here is different from the outside world, which is beneficial for our cultivation.”
Su Su and the others also nodded in agreement.
Indeed, they all had the same idea. Rather than being someone else's workhorse outside, it was better to get stronger first. With their talent, breaking through was only a matter of time, and here, they had plenty of time!
Not only that, they were still young. If they broke through to the Ninth Rank in a short period, their lifespan would increase by several hundred more years!
They weren't afraid of the passage of time in this realm at all!
Hearing this, Fang Bai also nodded. “Alright, since that's the case, I respect your decision.”
He scanned the group. Among them, Su Su and A Xiu had the highest cultivation, both at the Eighth-Rank Extreme Realm, while the others had also reached the Eighth Rank.
If there were enough resources, it wouldn't be difficult for them to break through to the Ninth Rank.
“Cultivate in peace. As for cultivation resources, I'll find a way to solve that,” Fang Bai said.
Qi Tian grinned. “Old Bai, how can we accept that? It's embarrassing enough that we're freeloading here. If we let you take risks to find opportunities for us, wouldn't we just be pure bloodsuckers?”
Fang Bai smiled. “No need to say that. Your strength increasing is also beneficial to me. After all, I might still need your help when fighting in the future.”
Hearing this, Su Su and the others immediately showed expressions of excitement.
They had originally thought they could no longer intervene in battles of Fang Bai's level, but hearing him say this, their fighting spirit was reignited!
After chatting for a while, Fang Bai left the moon god ring and arrived in front of a house.
As soon as he arrived, he saw a slender figure busy at the entrance.
“Clear Leaf.”
Fang Bai called out a greeting.
The woman was startled, and then a smile appeared on her mature face. “Lord Fang Bai, you're back?”
Fang Bai smiled gently. “How is it? Are you used to it here?”
Clear Leaf nodded with a smile. “It’s fine. Compared to that world, the outside is more convenient after all.”
Fang Bai nodded, then looked her over and smiled. “Not bad, you've already entered the Second Rank.”
Clear Leaf was now a martial artist too.
To extend her lifespan, Fang Bai had helped her become a martial artist. However, Clear Leaf had already passed the optimal age for martial arts, so her talent could only be considered average.
But to be able to step into the Second Rank, she must have endured quite a lot of hardship.
Clear Leaf pursed her lips and smiled. “I didn't want to fail Lord Fang Bai's expectations, so I cultivate with Yumi every day. Plus, with the resources you provided, I've made rapid progress.”
Fang Bai could exchange many resources from the system. For these low-level martial artists, they were undoubtedly extremely precious resources that could more quickly stimulate their potential.
“Is Yumi inside?” Fang Bai asked.
Clear Leaf nodded slightly, a smile spreading across her face. “Yumi is entertaining guests.”
“Guests?” Fang Bai was puzzled, then looked toward the house and swept it with his divine sense.
The next second, his expression suddenly became strange.
Several figures walked out of the house.
Leading them was Yumi. When she saw Fang Bai, her eyes lit up, and she pounced toward him like a light swallow.
“Brother Fang Bai!”
Fang Bai caught her helplessly and said, “How old are you now, still so reckless?”
Yumi gave a playful smile. “I just turned eighteen~”
“Stinky brat, hiding a beauty in a golden house, are we!” An annoyed voice came from behind.
Fang Bai looked at the two people behind Yumi and gave a sheepish smile. “Dad, Mom, why are you here?”
He hadn't expected his parents to actually find this place, which meant they already knew about the relationship between the Clear Leaf mother-daughter pair and himself.
Fang Bai's mother, Yingzi, walked over and smiled. “What? Can't we come? How long were you planning to keep them hidden?”
Good boy, you've really done it, actually liking a foreigner.
Fang Bai looked at Yumi, who whispered, “I don't know how Uncle and Auntie found out about this place either.”
Fang Bai sighed. “Let me explain.”
A moment later, the family sat in the house. Clear Leaf poured tea for everyone, her face carrying an unnatural flush.
After all, these were Fang Bai's parents, and she wasn't actually that many years apart from them in age, yet she and Fang Bai...
