"Little Sister, it's me!" Elder Long's voice came out, and it was hard to miss the suppressed excitement in his words.
"Is Ao Yuan there?"
"It's me," Ao Yuan replied.
"Ao Yuan! We've struck it rich this time, Great Xia!" Hearing Ao Yuan's voice, Elder Long could no longer control his excitement and shouted, "The leaders of the other countries just called me, asking me to intercede with you on their behalf."
...
Elder Long recounted everything that had just happened in the most concise way possible.
Upon hearing this, Ao Yuan was stunned for a moment.
Ao Yuan was largely aware of this matter.
It was just... he hadn't expected those people to pay such a high price.
"Ao Yuan, what do you want to do about this?" Elder Long asked again.
Ao Yuan replied with a smile, "Didn't I say that this matter is entirely up to you?"
Ao Yuan didn't care about the leaders of various countries at all.
After all, these people were nothing more than ants to him.
He didn't even care whether they were apologizing out of fear of his strength or out of sincerity.
None of that mattered to Ao Yuan.
If it was fear of strength, Ao Yuan was confident he could firmly suppress them.
If it was sincerity, then that would be even better.
His target had always been the gods.
After witnessing Poseidon's abilities, Ao Yuan desperately wanted to engage in fierce battles with other gods.
Firstly, it would allow him to clearly understand how powerful he currently was.
Secondly, there were evolution points.
The thought of devouring the evolution points of a god made Ao Yuan's dreams come true.
Elder Long pondered for a moment and then asked, "Then, Ao Yuan, what do you need them to do?"
Before Ao Yuan could reply, he added with a smile, "No matter what it is, accept a little bit.
"Otherwise, I'm afraid their hearts will never be at peace."
Ao Yuan felt it made sense and nodded slightly, "Then collect some items with spiritual energy for me."
Speaking of which, Ao Yuan was going to be busy with this matter himself, but if someone else could help, Ao Yuan didn't mind taking a break.
"Okay! I'll tell them now."
With that, Elder Long hung up the phone and went to get busy.
As soon as Ao Yuan hung up, he saw Mozi rushing over.
"What's wrong?" Ao Yuan asked when Mozi stopped beside him.
"It's not a big deal," Mozi said. "It's just that some of those... demon kings who previously refused to submit to Mount Taibai called me, asking me to convey their apologies to you.
"And they said they want to submit to Mount Taibai."
"I'm not sure how to handle this, so I came to ask for your opinion."
Ao Yuan, having just finished talking to Elder Long, was not surprised. He pondered for a moment and said, "Mount Taibai is not a place where you can just enter and leave as you please.
"Should I refuse them then?" Mozi asked tentatively.
Ao Yuan thought for a moment. "No need.
"But tell them that if they want to join Mount Taibai, they must start as outer disciples first. Only after making certain contributions can they enter the core of Mount Taibai!"
"As for what they think and what they want to do, that's their business."
"Okay!"
Mozi immediately agreed and quickly went to work.
Afterward, Ao Yuan handled all the other matters before returning to the Dragon Palace.
He was confident that after this incident, no one would bother him for a long time.
Of course, Ao Yuan wasn't going to be a hands-off manager.
There were more important things to do.
After all!
Mount Taibai, having now integrated all the beasts on Blue Star, could be considered one of the major forces on Blue Star.
This title alone required Mount Taibai to undergo a fundamental transformation and could no longer be as unrestrained as before.
Otherwise, it would be fine as long as he was there, but if he left.
Mount Taibai would collapse and fall into chaos.
"First... we need a complete plan."
Ao Yuan tilted his head, pondering quietly, "And we must unite everyone on Mount Taibai!"
On this point, Ao Yuan was not worried about the demon kings who had followed him from the beginning.
He was more concerned about the newly joined demon kings; this sense of unity was crucial. 138 Reading Network
As he pondered, Ao Yuan took out ink and paper and began to write slowly.
He wrote very slowly, clearly contemplating how to perfect it as he wrote.
He worked until late into the night before Ao Yuan finally finished writing several sheets of paper.
"Mount Taibai."
"Everything is for the honor of Mount Taibai. If there are external enemies, all demon kings belonging to Mount Taibai will abandon their grudges and unite to resist the external enemies!"
"Demon kings and beasts are not allowed to bully each other. Those who wish to do so may proceed to the training grounds for a duel under witness."
"Demon kings and even beasts who achieve promotion and make contributions to Mount Taibai will earn certain military merits."
"Based on military merits, one can exchange them in the Dragon Palace for equivalent cultivation techniques, elixirs, and so on..."
...
After carefully reviewing it again and correcting any unreasonable aspects, Ao Yuan finally nodded with satisfaction.
The preliminary plan for Mount Taibai had been formulated.
Ring Ring.
Just then, Ao Yuan's phone rang. It was Elder Long.
"Hello, Ao Yuan!"
"Elder Long, what is it?" Ao Yuan asked gently.
"It's like this. After I conveyed your request to the various countries, they have now assembled a large batch of items with spiritual energy and sent them to Great Xia.
"So fast!" Ao Yuan was slightly surprised.
But then a smile tugged at the corner of his lips.
The speed at which they could gather these items showed their sincerity.
Clearly, they were very anxious without his word.
"Ao Yuan, shall we send them over to you now?" Elder Long asked.
Ao Yuan said, "Yes!"
About half an hour after hanging up the phone.
Ao Yuan heard Little Sister report that the sound of a helicopter was approaching Mount Taibai from a distance.
Hearing this, Ao Yuan knew it was Elder Long and the others.
He then instructed Little Sister to let them in.
After speaking, Ao Yuan also turned and headed towards Mount Taibai.
When he arrived at Mount Taibai, he saw Bai Feng standing on the side, chatting and laughing with Little Sister and Mozi.
Behind them, soldiers and beasts were orderly carrying items from the helicopter.
"Your Majesty, the Guardian Divine Beast!"
Upon seeing Ao Yuan, Bai Feng excitedly greeted him.
"You're here," Ao Yuan said with a smile as he approached. "How has Elder Long been lately?"
"Good, better than good," Bai Feng chuckled. He knew how much Great Xia had benefited from this.
And all of this was built upon Ao Yuan.
If it were any other demon king with such strength, Great Xia would definitely not feel at ease and might even lose sleep all night.
After all, one could not tolerate others sleeping soundly beside one's bed.
But if this demon king was Ao Yuan, they had no such worries.
Because they knew very well what kind of beast Ao Yuan was.
He would never act against Great Xia, nor against other humans.
Of course, that was on the premise that humans didn't provoke him!
