Chapter 604
“So what?” Shen Yanxiao replied.
Du Lang looked at Uncle Jiu before he looked at Shen Yanxiao again. Instead of Uncle Jiu, he explained, “Uncle Jiu meant that, that group of people came here to mine because there weren’t any master who owned this area previously. Those people you’ve met today are just some coarse fishes. Although they are easy to deal with, it will inevitably provoke the powers behind their back. Their true backbone is in their main city in the Barren Land. Do you think that anyone who could build a city in the Barren Land would just be any ordinary person? If they really have decided to turn against you, it will be difficult for you to build a city here.”
Du Lang and Uncle Jiu both have experienced many setbacks after all. Though they were amazed by Shen Yanxiao’s strength and talent, they were still concerned about her due to her lack of experience and considerations in many matters.
Today’s matter, Shen Yanxiao wasn’t wrong for her action as the master of the eastern region.
However, mistakes were still mistakes. Their current strength was the weakest in the Barren Land. Those who already had a deep foundation here could easily cause them troubles. They knew a lot of things in the Barren Land, unlike Shen Yanxiao who was still new to the environment.
Whether it was time, place, or people, Shen Yanxiao was in a complete disadvantage.
You could quell your anger, but at least looked for the right time.
To withdraw and hide away your gut was also a method.
Du Lang and Uncle Jiu were both worried at the same time. They still had not entered the city yet but they already provoked the Lan Yue Dynasty. This really wasn’t a good news.
If they knew that Shen Yanxiao not only drove the people away but also cut the ear the Marquis’ son, then these two people might have gone crazy already.
“So, you want me to swallow my anger? And tolerate them as they demand everything?” Shen Yanxiao expressionlessly looked at Du Lang and Uncle Jiu.
The two men could hear the disapproval tone in Shen Yanxiao’s voice, yet they could only nod their heads.
We could only lay our heads down since we’re just new in the place.
Shen Yanxiao sneered and crossed her arms over her chest.
“Perhaps you are right, but that isn’t what I want. I didn’t come here to be controlled nor to look at the faces of those several city lords. I came here to build my own city with my own power. No matter if it’s in the beginning or at the end, no one shall dare to oppress me. If I let them be just now, then base on them, I can guarantee that my city will never be built.”
Shen Yanxiao looked at Du Lang and Uncle Jiu and said, “What you said previously is understood by a lot of people. And I am sure that the people from Long Xuan Empire who previously came here also followed what you’ve said. But the result was that they were still unable to stay here.”
Shen Yanxiao gazed at the dark clouds above her head and continued, “Actually, no matter if I obey or resist them, the forces of the other three countries will not allow the Long Xuan Empire to build cities in the Barren Land. They have become accustomed in using the resources of the eastern region for their own used. So would they really allow someone to owned this area here? Hence, no matter what my attitude is, they will still hinder me from building a city.”
“That’s why rather than to suffer in silence, it’s better to jump out now and warn them that I, Shen Yaxiao, will never tolerate anyone abusing me. So that if they wish to start a fight, they must weigh and measure their strength first.” Shen Yanxiao’s long speech made Du Lang and Uncle Jiu very surprised.
Shen Yanxiao’s thoughts were far more profound than theirs.
This was not something a young kid could say!
