As a lord, I was forced to farm

Chapter 968 The Fifth Young Fairy!

Yuan Xiang established several methods for cultivating Red Crystal Wheat Monster and Wheat Spirit Monster. Jiang Ran, through her relationship with Jiang Nancheng and Yuan Xiang, was even willing to use her connections to help the monsters in the county find some special nourishing foods and monster equipment.

"This land in Dasu is quite nice." Since the visitor was a guest, Jiang Ran asked Jiang Nancheng to show Yuan Xiang around Dasu.

While strolling around, Jiang Nancheng said, "Master, look how beautiful our Dasu is, with its mountains and rivers. Everything is great, but we lack talent. You have a wide network of connections, could you introduce someone to teach in Dasu?"

Yuan Xiang is one of the nine elders of the inner peak of the Spirit Academy. Although he is from the Spirit Academy, the five academies have mutual exchanges.

He had particularly close relationships with people from the Dan Academy.

After all, alchemists use quite a few spiritual herbs to refine pills on a daily basis.

Therefore, the Alchemy Academy often had to purchase medicinal herbs from the Spirit Academy, and over time, the relationship between the two academies naturally improved.

Currently, Da Su is relatively weak in training alchemists. If their own master could act as a go-between, they might be able to recruit a few Heavenly Rank alchemists to teach at Da Su.

Yuan Xiang glanced at his beloved disciple, "Hehe, you little rascal, you called me over here, you've got some big ambitions, don't you know how hard it is to invite those Heaven-rank alchemists?"

"Others are hard to find, but the master has a wide network of connections."

Jiang Nancheng said with a smile, "My Da Su is about to be promoted to a Chengdu-level territory. Even a Heaven-rank alchemist would be honored to work here. Moreover, Mingxiao City and Da Su are easily accessible. Even if they don't want to stay in Da Su for a long time, they can come to Da Su for a class every few days without any problems."

"Alright, I'll recommend some for you," Yuan Xiang said impatiently.

Jiang Nancheng smiled, thinking that since his master had said so, it was highly likely to succeed.

The two traveled around Dasu on their flying swords, and eventually arrived at the Lingze Islands.

Jiang Nancheng took him to his fiefdom, Shui Ning Island.

Upon arriving at the Lingze Islands, Yuan Xiang's exclamations of amazement never ceased. Gazing at the colorful, swirling spiritual clouds, he kept saying, "In all my years, this is the first time I've ever seen a sky island. No wonder Da Ce and Da Zang have been eyeing this place so covetously."

Jiang Nancheng was very proud of his hometown, and when he talked about the origin of the Sky Island, he felt a surge of admiration for his sister. "Originally, there was no such Sky Island in our Dasu. It was my sister who pulled it back from the dangerous sea!"

"As for those three provincial capitals, they harbor ambitions like jackals, but the entire city of Da Su is filled with brave warriors who love the city. No matter what tricks they use, they cannot shake the foundation of Da Su!"

Even after the three provincial capitals withdrew their troops, they did not give up and continued to target Dasu, frequently sending troops to harass the border.

There were also spies who infiltrated Nangang Town and caused violence.

Even worse, they blocked the roads for merchants and travelers from other places to Dasu, imposing an economic blockade on Dasu!
Fortunately, Da Su still has a teleportation array leading to Mingxiao City, so it is not completely cut off from the outside world.

The rise of Da Su has also had a significant impact on other smaller territories in the Clouds of Sorrow.

Since the three provincial capitals failed to besiege Dasu, these three territories may have become wary of other smaller territories and have launched wars against other regions, fearing that a second territory in Yunshang Land could threaten the provincial capitals!
They either turned other territories into their own cities, or they turned those smaller territories into their own dependent territories!

Currently, only four territories in the Cloudfall Land have independent rights: the three provincial capitals and Dasu.

The distribution pattern is that of the Great Constellation in the eastern and central regions. The Great Constellation in the Cloudsor Land is shaped like an overturned swan, with an extremely long coastline, almost surrounded by the sea on three sides, and controls half of the Cloudsor Land's coastline!

The western region of Yunshang is home to the provincial capital of Dace, which faces Dasu across the Yunxiang Mountains. At the westernmost edge of Dace lies the land of Yuejiang…

To the southwest of Yunshang lies the capital of Dazang Province. This territory is uniquely advantageous, bordering Yuejiang and Zhongli, and is also very close to Mingxiao City.

Mingxiao City is located in the southeast of Dazang. Dazang is a transportation hub connecting Zhongli, Yuexiang, and Yunshang, besides Mingxiao City.

So even though this place has no spiritual energy and the soil is relatively barren, its economy is still very prosperous.

The southern part of the Cloudfall Land is divided in half by the capital of Dayan Province and the city of Mingxiao.

Besides the four territories, there are approximately a hundred sects or rogue cultivator families scattered throughout the mountain ranges along the eastern coast of the Cloudfall Land...

Jiang Nancheng stood on Water Condensation Island, looking out over the land below with immense pride.

Looking at Jiang Nancheng like this, Yuan Xiang felt a little sorry. If he hadn't come from a major family or had such deep feelings for the territory, he really wanted to bring him to the Spirit Academy to inherit his Hanze Spirit Peak.

……

Yuanxiang stayed at the Grand Lodge until the Crimson Crystal Wheat Monster broke through to become a Nascent Fairy before leaving.

The Crimson Crystal Wheat Monster lay dormant in the white cocoon for a month. On the day of its breakthrough, not many people watched, except for Jiang Ran and a few other demon spirit masters who kept an eye on the area.

"Gumi..."

The Crimson Wheat Fairy that emerged from its cocoon was fourteen or fifteen inches long.

Compared to her demon and monster days, the Crimson Wheat Fairy appeared even deeper red, her red wheat-ear hair resembling countless magnificent red marrow gems.

A pair of butterfly-like wings grew wider and wider, fluttering gently and stirring up a wisp of breeze, which was very beautiful.

Even more noticeable was the spore robe that symbolized the Fairy Child's identity; the spore robe, like a red mist, covered the Fairy Child's body.

"Gumi!"

The Crimson Wheat Fairy's eyes darted around, and she quickly found her master, letting out an excited cry as she flew into Jiang Ran's arms.

"Fairy Red Crystal Wheat, you are excellent." Jiang Ran smiled and hugged the little fairy in her arms.

Jiang Ran patted the little guy's head, then curiously touched its spore coat—

The spore coat is like the fur on a small animal; it's part of the Fairy Child. Once "put on," it can't be taken off. The little guy was clearly very curious about the spore coat that had appeared on his body, and he and Jiang Ran explored their bodies with their hands...

"Goo-meow!" Master! I want to pet you so much!
Jiang Ran touched it a few times.

It has a texture somewhat like a mushroom, fluffy and a little slippery.

"Quick, quick, let me see what's different about this demon spirit!"

Yuan Xiang quickly squeezed in, his dark brown eyes fixed on Fairy Red Crystal Wheat. He stroked his beard and said, "She just came out of her cocoon and she's already this big. She's really strong!"

Newborn fairies are usually only thirteen inches tall, but the Crimson Crystal Wheat Monster is nearly fifteen inches tall, almost the height of a fairy in her teens.

Once a demon or monster transforms into a cocoon, it is generally unable to eat, and naturally, it cannot replenish its energy from the outside world.

But the Crimson Crystal Wheat Monster is special!

During the process of cocooning, its demonic spirits can transmit demonic power to it from the outside world!
Perhaps that's why this Crimson Crystal Wheat Fairy is so different!
