Zhao Fu had never imagined it. What had originally been only 180 cities had developed so explosively in just six short months, far beyond his expectations. Its strength had already surpassed the Night Dynasty of the Demon Profound World. How had it grown so rapidly? It was nearly seven times the number of cities it had before.
Zhao Fu's main focus had been developing Great Qin, because Great Qin was his foundation. The forces in the Night Dynasty and Fish Scale World were merely secondary ventures, so he had not devoted much effort to them. Yet they had developed at such a startling pace.
