I have an eye of truth

Sensing the energy I had left, I realized it wasn't enough to evolve a new skill. So, I decided to save it and continue forward, as I wasn't far from my territory.

Now, the territory wasn't the nameless place it used to be; it had its own name: Yuanshan Territory.

It was said that the opening of the passage made travel more convenient, and the name somehow spread from someone's mouth. This time, I didn't have to come up with a name myself.

Since everyone called it that, I guess it would stay that way.

By all accounts, this expansion was a great success, and I had firmly established myself here. After the official registration, this area would belong to me, and the registered name would also be Yuanshan Territory.

Then, I encountered some speechless situations because I had gained a foothold here and cleaned up the surroundings. As a result, people started taking advantage.

People began developing areas near my territory, but there was nothing I could do about it.

This happens after every powerful territory is successfully established.

Fortunately, Zi Qing and the others had a solution. They directly purchased a large area of development nearby, which would be left untouched for the time being.

But around this area, no one dared to build their own territory.

Because this area was also very large, and it hadn't been cleaned up, the surrounding area was still very dangerous.

If they dared to develop around here casually, they would really be in trouble.

And because of Zi Qing, my territory wasn't surrounded by other developed territories. At least a large area was still very safe. Plus, with the mountains on one side, three-quarters of the territory's edge had no other territories.

This time, upon returning, I was speechless to see many people building around the area, and small cities had already sprung up.

"Forget it, it's not so bad. At least when monster waves hit, they'll be the first to be impacted, helping us resist a bit. If they can't hold on, then let them perish."

I really disliked these guys, but that was their way of survival.

The human side also encouraged this situation. On the one hand, it prevented powerful forces from growing continuously, expanding their range, and eventually becoming uncontrollable. On the other hand, it increased the area controlled by humans.

These opportunists might not be good at other things, but they could handle some of the peripheral tasks well.

Letting these guys in could continuously expand the human-occupied area, and the overall benefits for humanity were self-evident.

After returning to the territory, I immediately saw the others gathering.

"Who are these people?" I asked, looking at the people standing behind Zi Qing and the others. I didn't recognize any of them.

He Yingxue rolled her eyes: "You're the most irresponsible lord ever. These are all our territory's managers. It just so happens that they haven't met you yet, so it's a good opportunity to meet them now."

"Oh, right, didn't you say you brought back a lot of things this time? Just tell us directly, and we can assign tasks."

I winked at He Yingxue, asking if these people were trustworthy.

He Yingxue winked back, indicating that these people were absolutely reliable. As for the reason, she would explain later; eyes couldn't convey that much information.

Just as I was about to use telepathy to ask, Zi Qing spoke up: "Let's not talk here; let's go to the conference room over there."

Okay, having a meeting as soon as I got back; I really had a busy life.

"Let's go to the warehouse instead. The conference room can wait; it can't hold so many things."

I pointed behind me, as a large number of Shadow Assassins were still carrying the Thorn Bee eggs. There was a lot of this stuff, and putting it all in the conference room would be too much.

However, I didn't plan to hide it, as it couldn't be hidden anyway.

It would be better to let them see it than to have to explain it once the Thorn Bees flew up.

Arriving at the warehouse, while tidying up, I said, "I discovered a special laboratory this time. These people were researching Thorn Bees. Here, this is the data."

While handing the researchers over, I began to explain.

Many people around, hearing my words, became increasingly awed and enthusiastic.

A powerful and lucky leader was definitely the person they wanted to follow the most.

Powerful referred to strength, and luck was very mysterious but definitely existed. Many people were able to improve all the way because of luck.

But this thing couldn't be controlled and seemed like a coincidence.

"Thorn Bee research, and this unfinished method of controlling insects? It seems we need to arrange for specialized people to cultivate it."

I said, "In a while, I'll deduce this cultivation method. It should be able to be cultivated to a super level, reaching the strength of a Saint Mage." I didn't say much, and the others knew what to do.

If they had strictly controlled the people who cultivated the secret methods before, completely controlling them in their hands,

They wouldn't now, because those who cultivated this secret method wouldn't only be used to control Thorn Bees, but would also be reserve experts in the territory in the future. These people couldn't be controlled with crude methods.

They would take other methods to completely bind these people to the territory's chariot.

He Yingxue and the others would do these things better than me, the lord.

"I really don't know what to say about your harvest this time. If this is exposed, we'll be in big trouble."

"Yes, Thorn Bee blood plasma can be used directly to cultivate martial artists. No, this can't be hidden at all. We can't keep it all to ourselves; I'm afraid we need to cooperate with the military."

That's right, this thing was related to a whole set of foundations, and they couldn't protect it themselves.

If they didn't share it with others, they would definitely suffer a blow from a powerful force. At that time, the danger would increase exponentially. Therefore, cooperating with the military was the best option.

As long as they offered a sufficient share, given their relationship, the military wouldn't forcibly demand control of these things.

When they developed to a certain extent and had enough strength, they could protect this thing.

Otherwise, even if other major forces attacked them, the military would only watch, because they also wanted to get this thing. Although it wasn't good to attack them directly, they could act after they were destroyed.

No matter how close the relationship was, the military would still consider itself first, and then others.
