Seven Elemental Warriors, the material and production costs totaled 49.7 million Celestial Dao Coins.

Celestial Dao Coin balance: 6.8971 billion.

Territory Points replenished.

Back at the villa, Yi Tian poured a cup of Liyue’s latest and top-tier Hundred Flowers Spirit Wine for Purple Phoenix Moon Dance.

This Hundred Flowers Spirit Wine contains Spirit Flower Dew from the SSS-level Spirit Flower Thousand-Color Cloud Flower.

Flying White Dragon, Luminous Bead, and Night Spirit Flower, three SS-level Spirit Flower Dews.

Ten-color Chrysanthemum, Ghost Orchid, Thousand Stars, Profound Ice Flower, Seven-Colored Lotus, Purple Splendor Flower, Earth Spirit Blue, Moon Shadow Flower, Pink Lotus, Nine-petaled Orchid, Crystal Rose, eleven S-level Spirit Flower Dews.

Illusory Purple-Blue, Blue Spirit Peony, Purple Spirit Rose, and fifty A-level, B-level Spirit Flower Dews.

Nine-Colored Osmanthus and Proud Snow Cold Plum.

Also, the Spirit Fruit Flower in bloom at the villa.

Thanks to Yi Tian’s abundance of flowers, there were five Thousand-Color Cloud Flowers, and many S-level Spirit Flowers had more than a dozen specimens. Otherwise, Liyue would spend a long time.

Such an ultimate Hundred Flowers Spirit Wine, Yi Tian drank a glass this morning, and his Spiritual Power Affinity increased by one percentage point, now at 18%.

Purple Phoenix Moon Dance now earns millions of Celestial Dao Coins every minute, so she shouldn’t always be occupied.

"Whoo whoo!"

Now the wind is strong enough to blow away small stones.

In the distance, wind whipped sand towards the entire city.

This sand was carried by the wind from outside the territory; Yi Tian confirmed there was none within the territory.

Even a small flying insect could irritate one’s eyes, let alone this sand.

Prisoners paving roads outside the city couldn’t open their eyes, unable to work.

Order the Fire Dragon to escort the prisoners back to the Celestial Prison!

Yi Tian surveyed the territory, found no safety hazards, and activated the Mercenaries. Commenced the mercenary mission.

The Mercenary Golden List’s mercenaries and some high-win-rate mercenaries became active. Invading actions fell silent.

Whoever invades now, the defenders can summon powerful mercenaries in retaliation.

Yi Tian noticed this, waited a minute, and found no Lord hired him.

Moreover, Yi Tian saw other mercenaries had changed their hiring conditions to Celestial Dao Coins.

Just as Yi Tian prepared to change the mercenary conditions to Celestial Dao Coins, the Celestial Dao Stone alerted him.

"Mercenary System Reminder: A client has sent you a task request. Task requirements: Protect the client, kill over one hundred late-stage B-level invaders, and three thousand servants. Client message: All Celestial Dao Stones from the invaders belong to the mercenaries, one Blade Stone, and 50 million Celestial Dao Coins."

When Yi Tian saw this task, he took a deep breath.

Is this a Lord group battle?

Over a hundred Lords, leading two to three thousand people to attack a territory?

Never seen, never heard of such a thing?

And the client is so generous, adding conditions to hire him straight away.

Yi Tian didn’t understand what a Blade Stone was. 50 million Celestial Dao Coins were directly thrown at him.

Probably afraid the world’s second-best would refuse upon seeing the number of enemies.

Simultaneously, this indirectly reflects the client’s immense wealth.

Very likely one of the super-rich on the Resource Golden List.

Let’s do it!

Though the enemies are numerous, they are all in a plague state.

Yi Tian in Dragon Scale Armor!

Profound Sound Treasure Bow!

Cyan Gang Sword!

Celestial Sword!

Heavenless Bead!

The leftover Ten-color Chrysanthemum from last time.

Green Star Pill!

Hundred Flowers Spirit Wine Gourd.

This morning, he also consumed some top-tier Hundred Flowers Spirit Honey, full of energy.

Armed to the teeth, time for a big score!

"Accept the mission!"

In a flash of white light, Yi Tian appeared above a city.

This city wasn’t built from a City Building Order but was constructed from a Level 5 Building Platform, standing thirty-two meters high.

This city’s size isn’t much different from Yi Tian’s War Manor.

There are quite a few buildings inside.

Moreover, the city walls are densely packed with soldiers holding B-level Strong Bows.

Some are even wearing Combat Armor.

The territory isn’t the initial ten square kilometers; at a glance, it’s at least a hundred square kilometers.

Primarily plains within the territory, small lakes, and the original hills remain.

Yet, this plain is dotted with small trees and saplings.

The client is very foresighted.

"Wu wu... Wah..."

Yi Tian saw a fat man running over on the city wall, crying loudly.

He was round like a ball, wearing three large gold chains around his neck, clothed in the finest silk, hand-made by a master tailor. His hands adorned with diamond rings, exuding an aura of wealth.

"Heaven does not forsake the determined; my Shimmering Gold fate must not end here!"

The fat man saw Yi Tian, showed no fear of the world’s second’s "fierce name," but embraced him tightly, crying profusely.

The sorrow in his voice, palpable and tear-inducing.

"Client, calm down, calm down!"

Yi Tian tried to push away the fat man, but the guy held on tightly.

If he didn’t sense the fat man had no ill intent, Yi Tian would have taken action.

"Oh, world’s second! No other mercenaries could be hired, only you!"

The fat man, wiping away tears, finally released Yi Tian and spoke to him.

Upon learning that the largest force in the region formed an alliance to invade his territory, the fat man was terrified to his core.

One hundred seventy Lords, three thousand servants!

Damned Celestial Dao Rules.

His seventh-level territory was, it was enough for just a thousand indigenous people.

The Mist Scroll allowed in so many.

Moreover, the Lords’ strength was evidently a notch above the indigenous.

Since the enemy entered his territory, the fat man activated the Mercenary System to call for reinforcements.

Upon hearing the number of invaders, mercenaries flatly refused.

Despite the fat man promising to hire more mercenaries and offering a heavenly price.

No mercenary was willing to accept.

This was clearly a losing mission.

Also, he had to protect the client!

People would simply overwhelm and kill the client.

With no choice, before the enemy’s march arrived, the fat man had to prepare for war.
