Chapter 442: Short-stay Pce


    Trantor: Law Editor: Hitesh


    After having been through this ‘rebellion,’ as the Ink Ape n and the other seven ns had attempted to loot the captives, the captive-escorting troops had been changed to elite troops urgently transferred from Chi Ban Mountain. Huaxu Family, Lie Mountain Family, and Thunder Luster n all deployed their forces to escort this great group of captives back to the south.


    In order to raise the marching speed, the Magi Pce had sent over another batch of Magi to cast spells on those captured ve warriors and ves, allowing them to move faster.


    The returning journey was still rough, yet, no other disturbances happened during it this time. Ji Hao and his teammates returned to Pu Ban city safely. Once they arrived, people stationed in Pu Ban city came to coordinate with them, counting and registering all ve warriors and ves escorted by each troop and kept them in a wild area near Pu Ban city.


    After delivering the captives under his escort, Ji Hao took his troop, which seemed to be not even slightly smaller than before, and marched into Pu Ban city. Trudging for another couple of days and nights, he finally led his people to his own territory, which was located in Pu Ban city.


    The Divine Light Lake and Fine Jade Snow Pce...


    That was a short-stay pce Gong Gong Wuyou built for himself in Pu Ban city and had cost him quite a fortune. This area was an enclosure, thousands of miles in extent, containing stunningly beautiful natural sceneries and rare nts all over the area. In the middle of this thousands of miles long park was the Divine Lightke, which was the most beautifulke in Pu Ban city.


    The Divine Light Lake was three-thousand miles squared in area; it was a vast expanse of mist-covered water. The natural beauty of thiske was recognized as the number one in Pu Ban city. Tens of small inds were located in theke, all abound in different and rare types of tea; theke was also the habitat of hundreds of different kinds of rare fishes, all of which wererge and extremely delicious. In addition to that, the water quality of the Divine Light Lake was excellent. Twenty-two natural water meridians were located under theke, and theke was the spot where all those natural water meridians met. Therefore, this Divine Light Lake also filled with magical mother-of-pearls and precious pearls.


    The Fine Jade Snow Pce stood on the northern side of the Divine Light Lake near a mountain and by the water, looking magnificent.


    The pce was built with white jade, silver, white crystal, white trida, white coral, white pearl and other rare materials. The pce was entirely glowing white, genuinely seeming like a natural-crafted piece condensed from the essence of ice and snow.


    This enormous pce was shaped like a spread out pair of wings of a bird, extended to both sides along the mountainsides. The pce had upied nearly a hundred miles ofnd squared, containing four hundred and ny different sized halls, nearly ten-thousand pavilions and rooms as anciry spaces. Every single one of those was sumptuous and was built upon enormous costs.


    Gong Gong Wuyong had cost an absolute fortune, hired real gods who were good at constructing pces such as Kua E, and spent whole twelve years of hard work. It was only then that he finallypleted the construction of this Divine Light Lake and Fine Jade Snow Pce, which were as magnificent as those legendary pces in heaven. However, after Rong Mountain n discovered the all-adapted magic crystal mine, Gong Gong Wuyou and Lie Shanxu joined hands and attempted to frame Ji Hao. Because of this, Zhu Rong extorted Gong Gong Wuyou for Ji Hao, and thus, this Fine Jade Snow Pce became a present given to Ji Hao by Gong Gong Wuyou as an amend.


    This immense park extended for thousands of miles. Except for the main building of Fine Jade Snow Pce, hundreds of different sized pces and mansions were standing in the mountain and jungle areas in the surroundings. Those were all located in spots which had the greatest views; each of the tens of small inds in theke had exquisite buildings with innovative designs standing on it as well.


    For this Divine Light Lake and Fine Jade Snow Pce, Gong Gong Wuyou had truly spent endless amounts of money and efforts, yet he couldn’t live in here even for a day before this whole area became Ji Hao’s personal property.


    Once Ji Hao and hisrge troop of ves reached the entrance of the Divine Light Lake Park, they saw an honorific arch that was carved out of white jade standing right in the middle of the board road. The arch was three-hundred meters tall, embossed with countless lively patterns of fishes and dragons. Under it, eight thousand ves and maidservants left by Gong Gong Wuyou had lined up in ordered lines, reverently kneeling on both sides of the road, quietly expecting Ji Hao and his people’s arrival.


    Kneeling on the left side of the road were ves, all wearing ck outfits; on the right side were maidservants, all wearing white dresses. Uniformly, all ves were wearing long swords. They were all at the peak-junior-level, nearly reaching the level of Senior Magi. Each one of them had been releasing a keen and fierce sense of power. All maidservants were bedecked with jewels, and most of the ornaments worn by them were rather luxurious; these maidservants were at the same power level as those ves.


    Ji Hao looked at these ves and maidservants, and couldn’t help but shake his head in shock. ‘Is this the luxurious lifestyle being lived by the Gong Gong family, one of the God-kind?’ thought Ji Hao.


    “Stand up! From now on, settle down in your job. After a while, you will find out that although I am not a mean master, you don’t want to vite my rules.” Ji Hao looked at these panicky ves and maidservants while he said in a low yet cold voice. His voice sounded clear and strong in everyone’s ears.


    “Keep your minds on your words, and you will gain benefits sooner orter. If anyone has any different thought, killing is nothing difficult for me.”


    All these ves and maidservants were left in here by Gong Gong Wuyou. The ones being selected to stay in here and serve Ji Hao must be the ones who were close to Gong Gong Wuyou and trusted by him. Every single one of these ves and maidservants was handsome and beautiful, and had decent cultivation; obviously, they were all handpicked elites. These people were like a fleshy piece of meat which had fallen into the mouth of a beast. Ji Hao surely wouldn’t spit such a good piece of meat out. Therefore, he gave his warning before moving into this pce; this was totally reasonable.


    After he settled down in here, he would take control of these people’s life and death. Till then, the Fine Jade Snow Pce would naturally be like a solid iron board, with no furtive eyes to be worried about.


    While Ji Hao was speaking to those ves and maidservants, many people following behind him had popped their eyes out in shock.


    Because of the reckless robberymitted by the Ink Ape n and other few ns, over a hundred thousand warriors who were responsible for escorting ves were all degraded to ves by Wulong Yao simply with a word and were all given to Ji Hao as his personal warriors.


    Those were over a hundred thousand personal warriors. At present, where could Ji Hao find trustable people to work for him? Therefore, Ji Hao got a headache every time he thought of the problem regarding how to restrain and manage all those people. Conveniently, each warriormander having more than a hundred warriors under hismand were selected out by Ji Hao, and these more than three thousand warriormanders were taken as Ji Hao’s personal ves.


    Except for these warriormanders, all the other captured warriors were enrolled as captives by Ji Hao, for the governors in Pu Ban city to sell.


    All these three-thousand warriormanders and their families were born in small to mid-scale human ns like the Ink Ape n. Normally, they all lived in wooden or thatched cottages; when did they ever see pces and mansions as magnificent as this one?


    But from now on, they were going to live here. Looking at this splendid pce, which was beautiful like the legendary ones that belonged only to gods in heaven, these warriors who were degraded to ves were actually chuckling to themselves — This ce was hundreds of times better than their own ns.


    Zhamu and his over ten thousand warriors had also been extra passionately looking at this breathtakingly beautiful piece ofnd.


    Such a beautiful ce, such a stunning pce. Only Yu n lords could live in pces like these. But now, lowly ve warriors like them could also have a tiny space of their own in such a splendid pce!


    Everyone was now staring at Ji Hao with iparably solicitous looks.


    Ji Haoughed out loud while waving his hand forward, and thundered, “Go, all get in. This ce is huge enough. Zhamu, you and your people,e to stay near the main pce. There are a series of buildings particrly for garrisons, enough to amodate around ten-thousand of you.”


    The troop marched to the Fine Jade Snow Pce. Everyone had his or her own room.


    Gong Gong Wuyou was such a nice person. In every single room, furniture like bed and table, homewares such as nkets, mattress, even teapot and cups, everything that one expected to find was avable.


    In the cer of Fine Jade Snow Pce,rge amounts of cereals and meat were in storage, even with a hundred thousand vats of top-grade wine.


    With the help of all these supplies stored in the pce, Ji Hao spent two days to finally settle down in Fine Jade Snow Pce.
