I Built An Empire And You’re Telling Me That I Wasn’t Transmigrated?

Chapter 5: Great Xu’s road to expansion!

The sky had just brightened, and the sun had not yet passed through the towering cliffs and sent its warmth to this city hidden in the mountains and dense forests. The whistling wind came from the training field of the palace.

Yang Xu got up early, put on a shirt, and went to the training field to train.

After coming to the wildland and leaving all technologies behind, Yang Xu found himself more self-disciplined when he lacked entertainment.

The martial arts practice field was a piece of land with solid soil.

Yang Xu held a white jade spear in his hand and stood in the middle of the training field with his bare upper body. His muscular body was like an ancient Roman sculpture, and his wheat-colored skin dripped with sweat. His muscles were streamlined, unlike the large muscles of bodybuilders.

He held the long spear in his right hand and positioned it horizontally with the ground.

The spear was more than three meters long and thick as a child’s arm.

The origin of this spear was rather wondrous.

This was a bone that Yang Xu had found in a deep cave when he was hunting in the Black Rock Mountains.

The so-called Black Rock Mountain was the mountain range he was currently in. Because most of the mountain rocks were black, like ink blocks, dark and shiny, Yang Xu called it Black Rock Mountain.

As for the spear, although it was made of bone, it was very heavy and had a jade-like texture, delicate and smooth. Not only was it extremely hard, but it was also extremely tough. After discovering the characteristics of this material, Yang Xu spent a lot of effort making it into a long spear.

The polished bone spear weighed one to two hundred pounds, and its density was not much lower than ordinary steel.

If Yang Xu didn’t use the mysterious bronze ancient book to strengthen his body after coming to the wilderness, he wouldn’t even be able to lift the spear with his previous physical fitness.

But now …

“Bang!”

Suddenly, there was a thunderous explosion.

Yang Xu’s right wrist shook violently, and the spear shook at speed visible to the naked eye.

The strong and rapid impact caused the air to rumble and exploded like thunder.

Then, his legs moved back and forth, almost touching the ground. The spear seemed to come to life and moved like a snake under his arms.

At times, it would stretch out like a giant python that was hunting.

Sometimes, he retracted it like a beast waiting for an opportunity.

Yang Xu didn’t know martial arts or spear techniques.

All of his training came from actual combat, from the fierce beasts he had fought before.

The countless fearsome beasts in this world taught him how to kill his enemies in the fastest and safest way!

The 100 – 200 pound spear was like nothing in Yang Xu’s hand.

As the long spear moved up and down, left and right, sometimes as swift as a giant python, sometimes as steady as a rock, his body was also soaked in sweat.

“Bang!”

After half an hour of training, Yang Xu stood with his gun in his hand.

The lustrous white long spear was thrust into the ground, crushing the rammed earth that was as hard as a rock and sinking half a meter deep into the earth.

He let go of the long spear, and a beauty from Qing Qiu walked over with a palace maid from the Merfolk clan.

The beauty from Qing Qiu held a face cloth in her hand while the palace maid from the Merfolk Clan held a wooden basin filled with clear water.

The Qing Qiu beauty had black silk-like hair tied into an exquisite bun at the back of her head. It was decorated with a phoenix hairpin, jade beads, and pearls, giving her a dignified atmosphere.

She looked gorgeous with her sharp nose and seductive red lips. Her fox-like eyes were sparkling, feminine, and delicate but also exuded a majesty that could not be seen directly.

Her clothes were completely different from those of ordinary palace maids. She was dressed in the magnificent clothes of the Tang Dynasty, with light yellow gauze on the outside and bright yellow undergarments on the inside.

The clothes bring out her tiny waist and wide hips, forming a perfect hourglass-like figure.

The loose light yellow long dress shows the style of a mature woman and is extremely enchanting.

The beauty of Qing Qiu is called Qing Qiu Zi Yu, and she was one of the people who followed Yang Xu for the longest time.

She was also the head of the palace, in charge of the palace’s food and clothing and taking care of Yang Xu’s daily needs. Besides managing the palace, she was also in charge of keeping track of all the resources in the kingdom and reporting the situation to Yang Xu.

“Your Majesty.”

Qing Qiu Zi Yu’s soul-stirring eyes did not hide her love and she affectionately handed her face cloth over.

The male and woman from the Qing Qiu clan were amorous and would never hide their feelings.

Like is like, hate is hate.

Yang Xu responded with a smile. He took the clean face towel, dipped it in water, wiped the sweat off his face, and put the face towel on the edge of the wooden basin.

The palace maid bowed and retreated.

“Your Majesty, breakfast is ready.” Qing Qiu Zi Yu said.

“Alright, let’s eat first.”

Yang Xu touched his stomach and nodded.

Breakfast was far from sumptuous in the modern world.

Food was extremely precious in this wildland, and Yang Xu’s breakfast contained a piece of smoked meat, a few fruits, a cup of honey fruit tea, and a pancake.

There was rarely meat for breakfast for ordinary subjects. It was, at most, a piece of pancake with some fruit.

In fact, ever since the establishment of Great Xu, the problem of resource shortage has never been solved. This was because Yang Xu would use the ancient bronze book to create new clans whenever he had more resources. This is to ensure his power grew in an orderly manner and would be able to open up a safer territory in this dangerous land.

The current Great Xu nation had one city and three towns.

The royal city was named Chao Yang, meaning that it was like the rising sun, full of vitality and hope.

The three small towns were dozens of miles away from the capital. They were scattered in the capital’s North, Northwest, and West.

While their division of labor was different, they could still work together to defend their kingdom.

The small town of the merfolk was in charge of fishing and ranches.

The small town of the Qing Qiu clan was in charge of farming.

The small town of the Azure bird tribe was in charge of mining and forging.

This clear division of labor allowed Yang Xu to accumulate such a large fortune in just a few years and even establish a nation in this wilderness.

All the basic facilities in Great Xu are on the right track. As long as everything goes according to the current plan, the population of Great Xu could triple next year when there is enough food!

With three times the population and a warm climate that produced three harvests a year, Great Xu would develop and grow at a visible speed.

The biggest enemy of the development of the Great Xu nation was the sphinxes.

Thinking about the sphinxes, Yang Xu’s face was filled with killing intent, and his eyes were filled with ferocity.

The Sphinx is the dominant beast in the valley, and no fiercer creature can compete with it in a hundred miles.

When Yang Xu had first brought his subjects to this valley, he had been warmly received by the sphinxes more than once. Hundreds of subjects had died in the mouth of the sphinx!

Until a year ago, when the population of the Great Xu nation broke through 4000, Yang Xu had laid a trap and severely injured the sphinxes that attacked again.

From then on, the sphinxes had never come again.

He had to take revenge.

The sphinxes must die for them to experience whatever Yang Xu had.

They had to die for Great Xu to occupy the valley.

Once the beasts were taken down, Great Xu would have a safe and stable foundation. They would clear the surrounding land of fierce beasts and open up farms and ranches. In less than two years, the Great Xu nation could develop 100000 people. At that time, Great Xu would indeed be self-reliant.

However, Yang Xu knew that killing the beasts would not be easy.

The beast’s scales were impenetrable. Even its weakest wing was extremely strong. Ordinary iron couldn’t penetrate it. Its brute force was terrifying to the extreme. The best result of a slight bump would be broken bones and tendons.

Furthermore, the beast’s speed was even faster than that of the Azure bird tribe.

It was easy to injure the sphinxes, but it wasn’t easy to kill them.

That was why Yang Xu had been waiting for the beast to give birth! That would be their weakest moment and the only chance to kill it.

If they waited until the beast grew up and had to face more of them simultaneously, the situation of Great Xu would become very, very dangerous.
