Chapter 149: The Pastries Were too Delicious

Li Xiang also understood this point.

After all, Demon Country did not have a large population to begin with, and it had only developed for a short period of time. On the contrary, its territory continued to expand, resulting in this strange phenomenon of having a large territory and few people.

“Looks like we’ll have to get more people in the future. It’s best if it’s humans and elves, the kind of race with a peaceful temperament, full of creativity and wisdom.”

“Alright, you’ve performed well recently. This is your reward!”

Li Xiang took out an equipment that he had obtained on Evernight Continent and threw it to Demon Warlord, Lys.

This was a battle armor that came from the Soul-devouring Mother Tree.

[Soul-devouring Battle Armor]

Quality: Legendary (SS)

Vitality: +300

Strength: +200

Defense: +300

Agility: +100

Characteristic 1: Passive: Devour souls to recover HP. Devour enemies’ souls on the battlefield to recover HP.

Characteristic 2: Passive: Tenacious. Immune to control skills below legendary level.

There were only two characteristics of the equipment, but its value was not low at all.

When Lys saw this equipment, a look of surprise appeared in his eyes.

“Thank you for the reward, Your Highness!”

“No need to thank me. You deserve it. Next, your main task is to control and train the army, clean up the wild monsters within the borders of the country, and monitor and patrol the borders. If there are any abnormalities, report back immediately.”

“Yes!”

Lys left excitedly. Only then did Li Xiang open the system interface.

When he opened the alliance interface, he was stunned.

He had already bound Myriad World Conference Hall to the alliance and given Yang Mi the authority that was second only to him. But now he saw that there were three people in the hall.

With a thought, he entered Myriad World Conference hall as well. The moment he entered, he heard Ning Xiaoyue’s happy laughter.

“Hahaha, sister Yutong, those people must be mad. Although they weren’t killed directly, it must be a great relieve stealing their Boss and causing them to suffer heavy losses!”

“Yes, I didn’t expect it to be so smooth. The main reason is that they are too weak. When my Bai Ling attacked, the bunch of heroes were no match for it. Not only did I manage to steal the Boss from them, it didn’t even drop anything.”

Yang Mi leaned lazily on a high back chair, her delicate hands supporting her cheeks, with a smile on her lips. She said, “Now they will definitely hate you. Don’t take it lightly. We are a little far from your country. You’d better tell Li Xiang that if something really happens, he can bring his army to rescue you in time.”

“What are you guys talking about? You guys are actually so happy!”

Li Xiang’s figure appeared on the main seat of the conference hall, and the three of them immediately noticed him.

Ning Xiaoyue immediately began to chatter about Zhou Yutong’s encounter.

To put it simply, after Zhou Yutong parted with Li Xiang, she went on a wild leveling spree. With the help of top rank equipment and top rank SSS heroes, she increased her level crazily.

Unexpectedly, she met her enemy, Qi Xiaoyun, and the others not long after. They joined hands to kill the Boss. Although they suffered heavy losses, they still managed to kill the Boss until only its skin remained.

At this time, Zhou Yutong suddenly appeared. Not only did she kill the Boss, but she also stole the loot. She killed and injured many of the enemies, then left calmly.

These enemies were so angry that they swore to make her pay the price.

Li Xiang nodded and said, “Since they’re enemies, then there’s nothing to say. If they really dare to act atrociously, I’ll bring my army to help you!”

In fact, Li Xiang missed his Soul Points a little.

His Soul Points were extremely low right now. He originally wanted to recruit another demon hero, but now he had to set the plan aside.

Now that he had the chance to kill wildly, he couldn’t help but feel a little eager.

In particular, he wanted to try out the effect of the high rank reflect damage halo. He really wanted to see that spectacular scene.

After he enjoyed himself and came back to his senses, he discovered that Yang Mi and the other two were already chatting enthusiastically, completely disregarding him as the alliance leader.

“Sister Mi, the pastries you made are too delicious. Why don’t you make me some more?”

Yang Mi was listening to Zhou Yutong and Ning Xiaoyue’s conversation with great interest. When she suddenly heard Li Xiang’s words, she couldn’t help but roll her eyes at him. She said unhappily, “Don’t you already have a chef? My pastries are all taught by others. Let your chef do it himself. Don’t bother me!”

“Ugh!”

Li Xiang widened his eyes. What was going on? Why did he feel that something was wrong?

When Zhou Yutong and Ning Xiaoyue saw each this, they covered their mouths and chuckled, looking as if they were gloating over his misfortune.

“Cough! I only like the pastries you made, Sister Mi. The others can’t do it!”

“Is that so?”

“Yes! Yes!”

“I’m not free!”

Li Xiang could also see that Yang Mi was throwing a tantrum at him to protest!

Obviously, Yang Mi was very unhappy with Zhou Yutong’s participation!

Li Xiang chuckled and said, “Sister Mi, could it be that you’re jealous?”

“Hmm? Jealous? Dream on! Who am I to make pastries for you?”

Yang Mi’s pretty face was slightly red, but her expression remained calm.

“Oh no! Looks like the gift I prepared can’t be given out. Since that’s the case, then forget it!”

“Hey, wait a minute! What gift are you talking about?”

Li Xiang said dejectedly, “Of course it’s a specialty that I brought back from Evernight Continent! What else can it be? I’m leaving!”

Although he said that, he didn’t move at all.

Yang Mi’s beautiful eyes flickered for a moment before she lightly bit her lips and said, “Alright! Seeing that you still remember me, I’ll reluctantly prepare some pastries for you.”

After saying that, she impatiently asked, “Quickly show me what kind of gift it is. If the gift doesn’t satisfy me, be careful that I will put some stones in your pastries!”

Li Xiang laughed and said, “Alright! I will send it to you by mail when I get back!”

Sending items by mail was naturally the fastest way in Myriad World Continent.

The only flaw was– expensive.

Fortunately, Li Xiang’s current wealth wasn’t small, so the mere postage wasn’t worth mentioning to him.

Not to mention the funds and spoils of war from wiping out hundreds of countries, just this trip to Evernight Continent alone had got him a massive amount of equipment and supplies.

“That’s more like it! But you must obtain the consent of all of us next time you add someone, or else… Hmph!”

What could Li Xiang say at this time? Although he and Yang Mi had not broken the barrier in front of their relationship, and it was just a thin barrier.

He couldn’t be perfunctory to his woman’s request no matter what.

“Okay, okay, okay. I’ll listen to you!”

In any case, this was not a big deal so Li Xiang directly agreed.

“You guys continue to chat!”

Li Xiang’s figure flashed and instantly disappeared.

Returning to his room, Li Xiang opened the auction interface and was instantly shocked.

“F*ck! Are there so many rich people?”

The auction equipment that Li Xiang had put up before entering Evernight Continent had all disappeared.

At the same time, his account also had a few hundred thousand crystal coins and a few thousand gold coins.
