Chapter 324: Difficult Problem

After returning to the palace, Li Xiang called Alice over. He handed her the interspatial ring that stored a large number of Skylight Flowers and Divine Pure Grass and said, “Go and arrange for the Skylight Flowers and Divine Pure Grass in the ring to be planted inside and nearby the border cities. You must have three Skylight Flowers for every Divine Pure Grass. Plant 10,000 of them in each city first for now and observe the effects!”

“Yes, Country Lord!”

Ever since Li Xiang ignited the divine fire, the aura and power of Li Xiang’s subordinates had evolved faster and faster. Alice was still seductive now, but she no longer gave off any sense of evil and depravity.

Even Alicia’s current status was no different from a normal angel. However, she could not cook.

Last time, when Yafei got food poisoning from Alicia’s meatballs, she almost became a vegetable. Now everyone knew that however good Chen Tao’s cooking was, Alicia’s cooking was bad.

The two were at opposite extremes.

Inexplicably thinking of Alicia’s cooking, Li Xiang hurriedly asked for a meal of Chef Chen’s delicacies. Otherwise, he really couldn’t get over Alicia’s traumatizing cooking.

However, it was impossible for Li Xiang to enjoy such delicious food alone. He called Yang Mi and the other 4 over and asked them about their decision.

In the restaurant, Li Xiang sat at the main seat. While eating the sparkling food made of some unknown extraordinary ingredients, he looked at the ladies and asked, “How is it? Have you made a decision?”

“Why are you in such a hurry?” Yang Mi asked unhappily.

Cough!

“I’m just asking casually. Can’t I be curious?”

“Is that so? You’re just curious if you can add another to your Harem, right?”

“No! How can that be? This decision is completely in your hands. I won’t interfere!”

Zhou Yutong smiled and said, “If we knew that you would meet such a beautiful woman in the Frost Purgatory world, we wouldn’t have left no matter what!”

“What beautiful woman? She’s far inferior to all of you! Moreover, I haven’t even spoken to her much. Ye Xi and the others can testify for me! The reason why she wants to join us is because she thinks that our future is bright enough. And, if not because the current name of the alliance can not be changed, I would definitely change it to a more normal name.”

“Haha… ” A faint laughter came out from the mouths of the five of them. Anyone could tell that they did not believe it.

Li Xiang felt a headache setting in. “Tsk! Why don’t you guys believe me? I’m not the kind of person who chases skirts. This time, it’s really she who came to us!”

“We didn’t say that we don’t believe you! Don’t worry! We have already talked to her. Her character and temperament are all good. Most importantly, her ability is also extraordinary. She can share some of our workload!”

Cough, cough!

Li Xiang ate a mouthful of food and almost choked to death at Yang Mi’s words.

So the most important reason why she agreed was that Carter’s work ability was not bad. Did Yang Mi treat Carter as a subordinate?

However, Li Xiang didn’t take it to heart. He nodded and said, “Then did Carter mention the merger method?”

At that, Yang Mi’s expression suddenly became serious.

“We have agreed to the merger, but the timing is also very important. Although we are not afraid of those foreign races, we have no choice but to prevent these foreign races from causing any trouble. Carter’s country is relatively powerful. Its territory is three million square kilometers, and its population is more than 20 million.”

She continued, “However, given that it’s still the system protection period, even if she joins our alliance, we are unable to do cross-border teleportation. We can only wait until the protection period is over before we can begin. That’s also when the black tide starts, and it’ll be even more dangerous. There are too many uncertain factors.”

“What about territory exchange?”

“We can’t. This isn’t the Trial Continent. Territories are divided into pieces that can be exchanged by consuming crystal coins. We can’t do it here.”

“How far are our two countries?”

“Not close. It’s considered close when looking at the Myriad World Continent as a whole. But in reality, it’s really difficult to cover a distance of more than 3,000 kilometers! The wilderness is filled with danger, and 3,000 kilometers is but a straight line distance. If we consider the proper route, it’s easily 10,000 kilometers!”

Li Xiang frowned. That was a problem.

Time and distance were both very difficult to deal with.

Moreover, those were only the most basic problems. After all, Li Xiang had offended the Lord of Dark and the Frost Ancient God. Although True Mask could hide his presence, the other party was still a God. Who knew if they had other methods to find his location?

In addition, there was another foreign race that was eyeing him like a tiger eyeing its prey, the Dragon race, the Eternal race, the Three-eyed race, the Alliance of Gods…

If Li Xiang revealed any flaws on his side, it was likely that he would immediately face a disaster. “This is really troublesome!”

Despite the problems, Li Xiang didn’t have the slightest intention of giving up.

It wasn’t that he really coveted Carter’s body, but that he didn’t want to give up on the 20 million humans.

What he lacked the most now was time. In the case of a lack of time, he could only build his foundation.

And population was one of the most important foundations.

The population of the Kingdom of Dawn currently seemed to be over 100 million. If he could add another 20 million, the number would instantly increase by one-fifth.

Although there were still 400 to 500 million people in the Azure World, the population was still separated from the Myriad World Continent, so it could not be counted as the permanent population of the Kingdom of Dawn.

Perhaps in the future when the Azure World was completely stabilized and the flow of population became normal, there might be people coming over. But for the time being, it was safer for those people to stay in the Azure World.

In any case, no matter where they were, it would not delay the acquisition of the power of faith!

“Then what are Carter’s thoughts?”

“She plans to persist until the system protection period ends and then directly transfer the population through the Cross-Border teleportation array. As for the land route, she can only give it up.”

Li Xiang frowned and put down the fork in his hand, sinking into deep thought.

“There’s still half a month. Maybe there are other ways. For the time being, I can only prepare for the worst and try my best. Let her organize the population first. If the conditions allow it, I can go over!”

He did not expect Yang Mi and the others to oppose him immediately.

“No, you can’t go over!”

“Yes, it’s too dangerous for you to go over now. It’s not suitable!”

Li Xiang was slightly stunned. “It’s not like I’ve never gone out before. Don’t worry, I’ll definitely bring people there with me. I won’t take any risks!”

Yang Mi shook her head. She said resolutely, “No means no! Do you not know how bad your reputation is in the Myriad World Continent? Or do you not know how many enemies are eyeing you? The Cross-Border teleportation array isn’t a very safe teleportation tool. There are countless methods to easily interfere with it. Once your whereabouts are confirmed, I’m sure that the enemies will try their best to prevent you from returning to the Kingdom of Dawn!”
