632: Chapter 199: Return to Qin City (Middle)_1 632: Chapter 199: Return to Qin City (Middle)_1 “Yin Zhu.” Anya’s gaze fell first on Ye Yinzhu, who was clad in a Divine Source Magic Robe.
Everyone only reacted at this moment and were overjoyed suddenly.
Especially Haiyang, who disregarded everyone’s gaze and rushed towards Ye Yinzhu’s embrace like a nestling.
A soft, warm scent filled his embrace, Ye Yinzhu’s body stiffened for a moment.
As he felt Haiyang’s excitement, another pretty face also appeared in his mind.
“Yin Zhu, you finally came back.
If it wasn’t for Jinse always sending back some news, we would have been worried to death.
You’ve been gone for so long, and you didn’t even take the time to visit.
You are such a careless shopkeeper.” Anya walked forward with a smile, looking at Ye Yinzhu, her words filled with a hint of reproach.
Speaking of management ability, no one in Qin City can pare to Anya, not even Ye Yinzhu.
Since Yin Zhu led his group away, all the affairs in the city naturally fell on her shoulders.
The recent busy days barely even left her any time for cultivation.
Ye Yinzhu subconsciously wrapped his arms around Haiyang’s slender waist and gave a bitter smile.
He said, “The battle at the front is intense, Sister Anya, I really had no time.
The eastern war has temporarily e to a halt now.
Let me first bring all the warriors back and then I will tell you the details.”
Haiyang lifted her head from Ye Yinzhu’s embrace.
But the arms she had wrapped around him were still fastened tightly.
Her eyes filled with tears as she wept for joy, making her ignore a trace of unease in Ye Yinzhu’s expression.
Anya smiled and said, “Sister Haiyang, let him go for now.
He’s already back and won’t run away.”
Haiyang gave a light sigh and noticed that except for the raptor druids that came out in file, almost everyone was watching her and Ye Yinzhu.
Her pretty face instantly blushed to a deep red, and she even forgot to cry.
Only then did she release her arms from around Ye Yinzhu.
But despite her embarrassment, she wasn’t willing to leave him, her eyes full of endless longing.
Ever since he left, every moment of her life was filled with thoughts of him.
But now that he was back, she couldn’t utter a single word.
Ye Yinzhu gave Haiyang a light smile and nodded.
He said, “The council hall is a bit small.
I must set up a new transfer point.” He clearly remembered the teleportation from the previous attack on the Landias and Popon Allied Forces’ camp.
If the Behemoth Beast was teleported and it knocks down his Lord’s Mansion, it would be more than they bargained for.
Everyone stood up.
The elders of the dwarf race and the Goblin Tribe bowed to Ye Yinzhu.
The admiration in their eyes could not be hidden, nor did it need to be hidden.
They all called out from the bottom of their hearts, “His Excellency, the Zither Emperor.” The elders and the Sect Masters of Qin City all respectfully addressed him as the Regent.
Even though Ye Yinzhu is quite young among the Eight Eastern Dragon Clans, not even the Chrysanthemum Clan members showed any disrespect.
Ye Yinzhu didn’t pay much attention to these.
Before he could bring back all the warriors of Qin City, he couldn’t relax.
After returning to everyone, he quickly left the Lord’s Mansion.
The Lord’s Mansion of Qin City is located in the center of the city, which is in the middle of the small basin entering Burna Mountain Range.
When Ye Yinzhu came out of the Lord’s Mansion, his steps came to a halt instantly, the whole person was shocked frozen.
Is this still Qin City?
What he saw before him prompted his astonishment.
Qin City was originally a small city, as could be seen from its tens of thousands of residents.
But at this moment, Ye Yinzhu saw a scene of bustling activity, with black-haired and black-eyed humans busily working everywhere.
The entire Qin City remained as it was, but the Burna Mountain Range he was looking at had undergone significant changes.
At the entrance of the Burna Mountain Range, two towering mountains stood on both sides.
But between the two mountains, the originally broad valley had pletely changed.
A massive city wall spanned between the two mountains, at least three hundred meters high.
Even from where he stood, he could see that the wall was made entirely of granite, forming a huge gate.
With this wall, anyone from the outside who wished to enter the Burna Mountain Range would have to pass through the giant city gate beneath the wall that stood fifty meters high.
Numerous small black dots moved about on the wall, all clearly workers.
What a massive project it was!
Remembering his original plan, Ye Yinzhu couldn’t help but feel his blood boil.
Although he could only see the changes to this single wall, he knew deeply that Qin City was no longer the small city it used to be.
Rather, it was the entire Burna Mountain Range.
Anya stood by Ye Yinzhu’s side, “What do you think?
Quite shocking, isn’t it?
While you were engaged in fierce battles in the forefront, we weren’t idle either.
Princess Nina kept her promise.
Moreover, she sent more than two million descendants of the Eastern Dragon in six separate batches.
It’s not a number that six major cities can muster.
Although I’m not sure how she acplished it, I can vaguely sense that it had quite a lot to do with your operations on the eastern front.”
Ye Yinzhu turned to look at Anya, expressing his gratitude, “Sister, you’ve worked hard.” Although Anya didn’t elaborate much, he understood very well that organizing two million people was an extremely difficult task, whether it was about their food, clothing, shelter, transportation, or appointing them with tasks to construct Qin City, it was a very plex process.
Yet, what had materialized before his eyes was a bustling and orderly spectacle, all thanks to Anya and everyone’s efforts.
Even though they did not fight the battle in the forefront, their hard work was no less than his and that of the warriors on the front line.
Anya smiled and said, “Silly boy, why are you saying this?
I am your sister, and besides, constructing Qin City is also about building our own home, so how could I halfheartedly do it?
Speaking of it, I really feel like giving you a big kiss.
Every time Jinse transports wealth from the front lines, I can’t help but have twinkling stars in my eyes for days.
I really have no idea how you did it.
Now our Qin City can be considered as rich as an entire nation.
Hurry up and transport the rest of the people back.
Once everyone is back, I have to thoroughly report to you, my esteemed lord, about the current situation of Qin City.”
“Okay.” Ye Yinzhu readily agreed, Anya had already arranged for people to clear a large area in the center of Qin City where a thousand light-armored human warriors encircled a vacant area to facilitate Ye Yinzhu creating his magic formation in the middle.
The transportation continued according to the original plan, without any trouble during the three-day transportation process thanks to a perfect plan, When Ye Yinzhu transported the last batch of Horned Hawk Knights back, the military operation of Qin City against the Flore Empire was finally acplished perfectly.
Even though Ye Yinzhu was eager to know to what extent the construction of Qin City had progressed, the continuous three-day transportation has taken a toll on his energy.
Even though he had rested several times in between, it would still take some time for his spiritual power to recover.
Under Anya’s arrangement, the warriors of Qin City returned, each going to their designated places.
Finally, Ye Yinzhu could return to his Lord’s Mansion to rest.
Ye Yinzhu’s meditation lasted a whole day and night.
When he opened his eyes fully energized, he found a pair of expressive eyes fixated on him.
The besotted look was too moving, causing an unanticipated shiver to run down his spine.
“You’re awake.
Eat something first,” Haiyang said, picking up a small pot from the stove next to him.
As soon as the lid of the pot was opened, a mouthwatering aroma rushed up Ye Yinzhu’s nostrils, stirring up his appetite.
With the porridge all served up by Haiyang, the delectable aroma had Ye Yinzhu eating without even uttering any words.
He hadn’t eaten fortably for such a long time while fighting in the frontlines, particularly after Sura had left.
He didn’t know what Haiyang had put in the porridge, but it smelled unusually sweet and appetizing.
Ye Yinzhu voraciously devoured the entire small pot of porridge.
“Is it good?
I’ll make a bit more for you,” Haiyang gently took the bowl from him, admiring the satisfied expression on Ye Yinzhu’s face.
A faint smile appeared on her face.
Inside her beautiful black eyes, she worked hard to suppress her swirling emotions.
“No need, I’ve already had quite a lot.
Did you make this?” Ye Yinzhu looked at Haiyang, surprised.
Haiyang’s face turned red, “Did you like it?
I learnt it from Grandma Lan.
Sura used to cook for you previously.
I shall also start cooking for you more moving forward.
Oh right, this time when you guys came back, I didn’t see Sura.
Where is he?”
When Haiyang mentioned Sura, Ye Yinzhu’s expression instantly hardened.
A tidal wave of longing and pain quickly swept over him, turning his reddish face suddenly pale.
Haiyang was startled, “Yin Zhu, what happened?
Could it be…
Could it be Sura…?” Having been brought up with Marshal Xi Duofu, she was naturally aware of the atrocities of warfare and seeing Ye Yinzhu’s peculiar expression, she instantly inferred the worst possible oute.
Ye Yinzhu quickly shook his head, knowing that Haiyang had misunderstood, “No, Sura is fine.
Although she encountered danger, she is safe and sound.” He didn’t know how to explain his and Sura’s situation to Haiyang, but he knew it would be worse and also unfair to Haiyang, the more he delayed.
However, after recognizing his feelings, the last thing he wanted was to hurt Haiyang.
“So…” Haiyang looked at him, slightly puzzled.
Taking a deep breath, Ye Yinzhu, after all, had weathered countless storms, he knew that perhaps telling the truth at this time was the best choice, his perplexed eyes became resolute, looking into Haiyang’s clear blue eyes without hesitation, “Haiyang, I’m falling in love with Sura.” (To be continued.
