Ruler (2)

"I know what you're worried about. Although Zhao Yarou has obtained this relic, she can't use the alchemy inside in a short time. Besides, even if she can use it, she'll need time to prepare. By then, my grandson will probably be old enough to run errands!" Ye Lang said nonchalantly.

"Pfft..."

Ye Lanyu couldn't help but laugh. Ye Lang's statement was ridiculous. He wasn't even married yet, and he was talking about having a grandson. When would that happen?

However, this also seems to indicate that it will be a very long time before he faces the threat from Zhao Yarou.

"Even if it can't do anything in the short term, it's only a matter of time. We still need to guard against her harming us; that's essential," Ye Chengtian said. Military thinking often involves preparing for things decades in advance; it's about being prepared for any eventuality.

A country can exist without an army that invades others, but it cannot exist without a national defense force!

The principle of "always be wary of others" can also be applied to the national level!

"This isn't actually that difficult. I don't think I need to teach you, right? You already know she has this technology, so send scouts over there. She can't possibly keep this all to herself! This is a huge project that requires a lot of people, and the more people you have, the more likely you are to get information and even obtain their technology," Ye Lang said with a smile. He believed that every faction would do what he was talking about.

"Kid, of course we'll do it, but instead of getting her technology, we'd rather ask you for some. Just give us something to deal with her," Ye Yi said at this moment, thus revealing their main objective.

In reality, they just wanted to know what techniques Ye Lang had to deal with Zhao Yarou. They didn't need anything to dominate the world; they just needed a guarantee to make a living.

"I have plenty of things to deal with her, and I already gave them to you a long time ago!" Ye Lang said.

"What? He gave it to us? When did this happen? Why didn't I know?" Ye Chengtian and the others were very puzzled. They didn't know that Ye Lang had given them anything, at least not in this regard.

"I'm not giving you a blueprint for a city. Don't tell me you didn't build according to my design or changed anything in it," Ye Lang said.

"Ah, this... I... I made some changes..." Seventh Brother said at this moment, his tone very weak.

"What changes did you make? I'll draw out the parts that can't be changed. You didn't change those, right?" Ye Lang said. It was obvious that some changes didn't matter; in his design, some things were just a cover-up.

Seventh Brother said weakly, "It's been changed too. I felt that was too wasteful of resources, so I had someone change it to be more reasonable. I didn't realize you had any other use for it. Why didn't you say so earlier?!"

"... Well, I don't care then. If anything happens, don't say I didn't give it to you!" Ye Lang said casually.

"Seventh Brother, hurry up and change it back! Honestly, even if this kid is just playing around, you still have to follow the blueprints! Otherwise, if he actually needs it, you'll be in trouble!!" Ye Yi scolded his Seventh Brother.

Ye Lang's behavior is unpredictable. He often does things that seem meaningless to others, but many of the things that people can't understand and think are meaningless are actually very important.

That's why, even though the Ye Clan knew Ye Lang was just playing around, they could only play along. They were afraid that if it actually worked, they'd be in trouble.

"Yes, I'll go change it right away!" Seventh Brother replied immediately.

"Don't mess with my stuff anymore. You don't even know the benefits I'm giving you. You've wasted several years of your time. Seventh Brother, you're a sinner." Ye Lang patted Seventh Brother's shoulder, looking regretful.

"Get lost! I only changed a few things. It will only take a few months to fix it. Why waste several years?" Seventh Brother slapped Ye Lang's hand away and said to Ye Lang in an annoyed tone.

Ye Lang smiled and said mysteriously, "You'll understand when the time comes. What you've wasted is several years of everyone's time here..."

"What? Thirteen, what else are you hiding from us?" Seventh Brother knew Ye Lang well, and from Ye Lang's attitude, he could tell that this matter was definitely not simple, and there was something else involved.

"Little Thirteen, tell me, what else is there?" Ye Yi was also very curious and gossiped a bit. Perhaps this matter was very important, who knows?

It must be very important!!

Ye Chengtian and Long Anqi affirmed that Ye Lang's message must be very important, a fact they were even more certain of after the birthday banquet incident.

At that time, Ye Lang actually forgot such an important thing, causing everyone to be nervous for no reason. They dared not underestimate the things that Ye Lang had ignored!

"Actually, it's nothing much, just a small Spirit Gathering Array," Ye Lang said, waving his hand.

"What? What Spirit Gathering Array? I've never heard of this Alchemy Array before?" Ye Yi asked. Although he had no knowledge of alchemy, he had lived for a long time and had come into contact with it quite a bit, so he knew at least the general idea.

Ye Yi was unaware that the formation Ye Lang was referring to was not actually Alchemy Array in the true sense. However, that was fine; let everyone just treat it as Alchemy Array.

Ye Lang smiled and replied, "It's a secret. You just need to know it, but don't tell anyone! Actually, you might understand this formation better if I explain its effects. The effect is to gather nearby magical energy, and there might be some other things as well. People within this formation will practice their Battle Qi and magic faster than those in other places, and their physical constitution will also be better..."

"..."

The entire room fell silent. This was the first time they had ever heard of such a thing. If it were true, wouldn't the people here be much stronger than people in other places?

Even an ordinary person can become a talent if given the right environment; this formation is truly amazing!

"Are you telling the truth?" Ye Yi asked nervously. Even though he had lived for so long and seen countless ups and downs, he was still a little nervous and excited in the face of such a thing.

If it were anyone else, he would have questioned them directly. But Ye Lang was someone he wouldn't have doubted, yet this matter was so unbelievable that he had no choice but to ask.

"You all know about the new district of the Holy City, right?" Ye Lang said.
