From the Carp that Brings Children to the Celestial Officials

Chapter 506 The Frustrated Golden Boy God

"Issue my order: the three departments of the Water Palace and the eight divisions of naval troops, line up to welcome Your Majesty!"

The voice of the Azure Lake Water Lord resounded far and wide, and for a moment, the sound of water in the Azure Lake was like thunder.

Layer upon layer of waves surged up, and carp spirits, shrimp soldiers, turtle generals, and dragon guards appeared...

The various divine forces, fully armored and in formation, stood ready to meet them.

It must be said that the divine troops of Bibo Lake are much more elite than those of Fengshui. Almost every one of them has at least the strength of being close to the Nascent Soul stage. If they are used in battle formation, a dozen of them could probably deal with a Xuan Guang.

"You Mingsi, you've finally arrived."

"I thought you weren't going to take the Toadheart Islands anymore."

The water beneath Bibo Lake rippled, carrying him slowly forward. When he got close to Youming, he burst into laughter.

"If Lord Suijun makes such a fuss every time I come here, then I really wouldn't dare to take Toadheart Island."

You Ming and Bibo Lake Water Lord were old acquaintances, so the two spoke very casually.

"Hahaha, we're all family, so let's not stand on ceremony. Brother, you practically fought for my position as the Lord of Azure Lake, so logically, you should be the one to sit on this position."

"I'm shamelessly occupying this position now, but as long as I'm in office, this Azure Lake will open its doors wide to you."

"You may command all the more than ten thousand divine soldiers in this lake, as well as the thousands of servants in my mansion."

The voice of Lord Bibo Lake was like thunder, and his words were very bold, yet every word came from the bottom of his heart.

Moreover, his statement was not only because Yu Ming helped him obtain the position of Suicune, but more importantly, because Yu Ming's strength was too amazing.

Beingfriend such a person will only bring you benefits.

Moreover, it is foreseeable that You Ming's future strength will definitely not stop here. Perhaps one day, he will become a true immortal or a celestial immortal.

"Brother, you flatter me. But if I have anything to do, I will certainly bother you."

You Ming was very satisfied with his statement, and it was worth all the effort he had put in during the last competition.

As they talked, they arrived at the side of the Toadheart Islands.

Toad Heart Island is the name of the largest island in the lake. The other smaller islands are just earthen slopes on the water, and they would be submerged once the water level rises, so they have never had names.

However, Toad Heart Island is quite large, stretching for more than ten miles from east to west, while the combined volume of the other smaller islands is less than half that.

Although Toadheart Island is in an excellent location—it takes no more than half an hour by boat to reach any of the three provinces of Ji, Bing, or Si—it has remained undeveloped because its former Water Lord, Lord Qinglian, was aloof and disliked contact with mortals.

This is why the rocks on the island's shore are bluish-gray, with thick moss and aquatic plants growing in the crevices.

On the vast land, various reeds and weeds grow freely, and birds occasionally flutter up and take flight, creating a primitive scene that has never been set foot on by ordinary people.

"The island is in a good location, but there are no spiritual veins beneath it, so it's not of much use to us."

Bibo Lake Water Lord looked at the island in front of him and casually chatted with Youming.

The reason he was so generous in giving up the island was because there wasn't even a tiny spiritual vein beneath it, and any living being with a bit of intelligence wouldn't want to live there.

However, You Ming was quite satisfied with the island, but it still needed to be properly repaired before it could be put into use.

……

Repairing Toadheart Island would be a considerable undertaking. However, for the Shinto sect, it would be a trivial matter.

You Ming has already sent someone to notify the [Slave Management Bureau] of Yuanling County, and a group of indigo slaves will be dispatched to level the entire island first.

The deities of the City God Temple in Yuanling County, upon receiving You Ming's instructions, also attached great importance to the matter and immediately dispatched thirty-six indigo slaves and twelve tile officials to ensure that the project would proceed without any mistakes.

That's right, Yuanling County does indeed have a City God Temple.

Even the City God in the temple is a seventh-rank deity, but the officials of the City God Temple have a very low profile. Even in the eyes of the Earth God lineage, the real person in charge of Yuanling Mountain is You Ming, and the gods responsible for running the entire city are the auxiliary gods of Yuanling Mountain.

Most of the deities in the City God Temple are merely empty titles; without the approval of Yuanling Mountain, their decrees cannot be issued.

Even their City God Temple was not located in the center of Yuanling County as per regulations, but rather in a remote location in the southwest corner.

This area had long been occupied by Youming's temple.

You Ming already had a preliminary framework for the lake island plan, but he still needed Wu Mo and the others to conduct a thorough investigation before giving him a detailed plan.

But generally speaking, the industrial development of the new city built on the island in the middle of the lake will inevitably be geared towards ordinary people.

The focus remains on commerce, given the excellent geographical conditions of Lake Bibo, which make it suitable as a major hub connecting the three states.

Education also needs to keep up. You Ming also plans to build an academy, similar to an upgraded version of the free schools in Yuanling County, where students with excellent academic or martial arts achievements can pursue further studies.

Just as You Ming was about to call Wu Mo and the others over for a meeting, suddenly, golden light rose from the main hall, illuminating the hall with golden light everywhere.

Within this golden light, a ring condensed, and then a delicately sculpted figure emerged from it.

"Greetings, Divine Lord."

The moment You Ming saw this figure, he quickly came over and bowed.

"No need for such formalities, no need to be so polite..."

"Alright, you should still be polite. If I don't take advantage of your politeness now, I might not have the chance again."

The Golden Boy God leaped out of the golden light and plopped down on the table, looking rather dejected.

"Is something troubling you, my lord?"

You Ming rarely saw the Golden Boy God with this expression, so he asked curiously?
"Ugh, don't even mention it."

"The Queen said that we are in a time of great strife and the world is about to fall into chaos, so she wants me to be reborn into the human world so that I can accomplish something great."

The Golden Boy God's face fell, and his head drooped.

You Ming was extremely surprised. Could it be that this upheaval in the world was more serious than he had imagined?

Even the Goddess Bixia has reincarnated the Golden Boy God, which suggests that there may be a great opportunity amidst this turmoil.

Moreover, since Bixia's lineage has sent people down to the mortal realm, does that mean other forces will also send deities down to the mortal realm?

"Since we're both reincarnating, I've decided to reincarnate into your realm."

"Let me tell you, you can't take advantage of my reincarnation to get revenge on me."
