When the Burning Poison Algae, looking like a tiny beast with bared claws, appeared in front of Yue Chen and Ye Zi, Ye Zi blurted out, "Devil Algae," while Yue Chen’s face was brimming with excitement. Such Magic Algae also grows in the Senming Realm. This species, known as one of the ten most dangerous invasive species in the Senming Realm, once caused considerable panic there. "Fengdan County actually has this kind of algae, it’s terrifying. Not only does it attack living people and Xuan Beasts, but it also devours the nutrients of other plants. It’s a Forbidden Grass," Ye Zi’s pretty face turned pale, obviously she had a very bad impression of the Burning Poison Algae. "This grass is quite cute," Yue Chen used his finger to flick at the sucker-like leaves of the Burning Poison Algae. Upon receiving Yue Jinghua’s consciousness, the Burning Poison Algae did not attack Yue Chen, instead it clung to his finger with its sucker-like leaves and nuzzled him, "Its structure is somewhat special." Yue Chen, with sharp eyes, noticed several unusual veins on the leaves of the Burning Poison Algae. Apart from Yue Jinghua, Qing Pu, and the little Contracted Beasts surrounding her, only Shalman knew that Yue Jinghua could engrave the Spirit Wood Pattern. Since the first time she carved the pattern on a crossbow, Yue Jinghua has now learned both the Spirit Wood Pattern and Artifact Pattern. "I made some minor adjustments to facilitate reproduction, which significantly shortens its growth cycle," Yue Jinghua did not tell Yue Chen that in addition to carving the Spirit Wood Pattern on the Poison Algae, she also stored a large quantity of Death Lake Water when she left the Dark Hell. By using a few drops of Death Lake Water on the Burning Poison Algae, it can be instantaneously catalyzed to enter the reproduction phase. Unlike Summoners, Yue Jinghua, who became a Demon Summoner, has not been one for long. Her current level as a Demon Summoner is still at Bronze. Apart from her Life Contract, she can only contract two more Dark Demon Beasts. She had already contracted the Flower Spot Mosquito King, so she did not waste the remaining contract slot on the Burning Poison Algae. Yue Chen took a careful look at the Burning Poison Algae and said, not so certainly, "This type of algae is the most reproductive herb I have ever seen. It can reproduce in many ways; it can propagate through leaf cuttings, as well as through pollen, fruit, or even division. If the planting location is confirmed, I can make it reproduce nearly a thousand plants in two days." With the cooperation of Yue Chen and Ye Zi, Yue Jinghua planted a swath of Burning Poison Algae two zhang wide and over a hundred zhang long at the periphery of Fengdan County, near the border between Fengdan County and Bailu County, and warned the villagers not to leave Fengdan County on their own during this period. The promotion of Blue Snow Candles went much faster than Yue Jinghua had imagined. In a village of nearly a thousand people, it took less than half a day for every household to start using the candles. The villagers all praised that this new light source called Blue Snow Candle provided high brightness without any smoke, saving so much more trouble compared to kerosene and diesel lamps. In this period, including Teng Wufeng and a few others, began to cut down some of the trees in the territory to build several temporary shelters from the wind. Perhaps because the lives of the people had improved since Yue Jinghua’s arrival, upon seeing the reconstruction of the Lord Mansion, some villagers gradually began to help with the construction. Only Nan Muyu, just like last time, refused to accept anything from the Lord Mansion, and just watched with cold eyes from the sidelines when the reconstruction took place. Winter is about to end, with just half a month left until spring. It was on the night before the completion of the Lord Mansion, late one night, Yue Jinghua suddenly felt an inexplicable excitement scratching at her, like a cat. She drove the carriage by herself, slowly moving along the outskirts of Fengdan County. The wind roared like the growling of a lion, stimulating the eardrums. In the time of white snow, the carriage with a grey canopy advanced against the wind. After the Evil Qi in her Dantian circulated the small cycle counter-clockwise twice, she suddenly opened her eyes, a subtle smile unnoticeably forming at the corner of her mouth. The snow wind tonight seemed somewhat unusual. At the entrance of Fengdan County, a sudden and extraordinary snowstorm arose. It was the stampede of beasts, a man-made snowstorm triggered by the Dark Practitioners’ Dark Energy. In the midst of the snowstorm, a reckless burly man, built like a mountain, waved two lead hammers, each weighing around fifty to sixty catties. With his overly robust physique, only the mature Fifth-level Fierce Teeth Lion underneath him could withstand the pressure. "Sound the battle horn, scare those bastards in Fengdan County until they piss themselves," said Zhang Chao, the leader of Bailu County Guard Army, at the Dark Earth Peak, his voice booming like war drums, resonating in people’s heads. The soldiers from Bailu County had prepared for three days. Seizing the sudden onset of the snowstorm tonight, they finally launched a night raid on Fengdan County. When the battle horn, made from the horns of iron-back bulls, was sounded, it roared like thunder from the nine heavens, catching the entirety of Fengdan County off guard, shaking the Arrow Bamboo Forest, and causing snow to pour down. The villagers, who were deep in sleep, dragged their elders and held their children, trembling with fear like startled field mice. The village chief hurriedly sought out Hongling, who, in the eyes of the villagers, was far more reliable than the Young Lord who was seldom seen, "Miss Ling, Bailu County’s forces are here. Judging by the noise, they’ve come in large numbers this time. Should we take the villagers and hide in the mountains?" Bailu County had never attacked Fengdan County with such a large number of soldiers as they had tonight. Perhaps all this was because the Young Lord had previously saved Erwang, truly a disaster born from sin. "Village chief, stay calm. Our young master has already gone to intercept the enemy," Hongling noticed that Yue Jinghua’s carriage was gone. Understanding her Miss, she must already have a plan to defeat the enemy. "How many troops did the Lord take with him? Wait, that’s not right. I see Guard Teng and Miss Hongyao and the others are still around," the village chief wiped his cloudy old eyes, peering outside. "Uh, it seems he went alone, no, he took a horse with him," and also brought a swarm of mosquitoes and Little Xuan Beasts, Hongling thought to herself. "Ah, just one person? Isn’t that like marching to one’s death?" The village chief almost fainted. According to the report from Shalman’s Earth Tunneling Spider, there were thousands of soldiers outside, most of them armed with weapons and Xuan Beasts. Bailu County really intended to flatten Fengdan County. "Village chief, rest assured, it’s definitely not marching to death. Who will die will be known when day breaks," Hongling comforted the village chief before moving towards Lie Rou’s carriage. The sound of the horn echoed over the vast snowy plains, and the boisterous Bailu County Guard Army, after a round of shouting, gradually returned to calm. There was no sound of pleading for mercy as expected, nor the chaotic sound of fleeing villagers. Ahead, the snow continued to shine under the moonlight, and the wind kept blowing. "Captain, why is it so eerily quiet? Not a single reaction," the soldiers below wondered. It was suspiciously calm. "What’s the rush? Maybe that bastard got scared and fled with his tail between his legs. Send someone around to Xuan Beast Ridge, chop any you see," spat Zhang Chao. Suddenly, he saw a small black dot in the distance slowly moving towards them.
