“Master.”
A petite figure slowly appeared in front of Li Yunqing. Little Man knelt on one knee and lowered her head.
“Get up. Have you arranged the array formation for them in Rong City?”
“Master, I borrowed a classic city protection array from the ancient atlas and made some changes to that foundation. I designed an array formation suitable for Rong City and have already handed it to Sister. I believe it will be completed in half a month.”
“How’s the construction of the monitoring array in the wilderness and the establishment of the teleportation array between the spirit mines?”
“They’ve all been done according to Master’s arrangements.”
An empty map appeared in front of Little Man. There were some small dots on it.
“At present, we have already controlled 90% of the mineral veins that were previously under the control of the demons. Most of these mineral veins have already been mined and dried up. They are maintained by a little spirit mine resources that are obtained every year. The output is not big.”
Li Yuanqing knew a little about these situations. These demons were really ruthless. If they mined bit by bit, they could obtain an endless supply of ores from the mineral vein every year. These mineral veins were all naturally formed. They formed a vein and slowly mined on this vein. If its circulation could be guaranteed, the production speed would be very fast.
However, these demons did not do that at all, just like what Li Yuanqing had seen in the Black Mountain mineral vein last time. Basically, all the mineral veins here had been collected by the demons. There was nothing left except for some people to watch. Every year, they would gather the new ores and did not think about sustainable development at all.
However, these mineral veins had already fallen into the hands of the humans. Li Yuanqing was planning for them.
“From now on, seal off all the mineral veins until they are reconnected. However, the annual mining volume must be controlled to a low level.”
Little Man smiled and said, “Master, don’t worry. I’ve already sent people from the three cities. They’ve already guarded the various mineral veins. The area within ten miles of the mineral vein has been sealed. We have enough time to reconnect these spiritual mines.”
“Then, build the teleportation array between each mineral vein. The stability must be strengthened. Don’t let anything happen.”
“I’ve added safety measures to every array formation. It’s definitely very safe and won’t go wrong.”
Li Yuanqing looked at Little Man in satisfaction. Although Little Man was a demon, she was humble and eager to learn. In a short period of time, she had already become an array formation master.
With Little Man’s attainments in array formations, probably no one in the entire Demon Realm could challenge her.
But that wasn’t enough.
“After you finish these missions I gave you, go into seclusion.”
Little Man was stunned for a moment and looked at Li Yuanqing strangely.
“Master, what do you mean? Little Man has just broken through and is still very stable. I don’t have to go into seclusion again. I think I should help my two sisters stabilize the situation first before going to the academy of array masters to personally teach.”
Li Yuanqing looked at Little Man sternly.
“Not long after, I’m afraid there will be powerful opponents that we have never encountered before. I hope that you can increase your comprehension of array formations to another level in the shortest time possible. This is what you should do.”
“What? Master encountered a powerful enemy?”
“You don’t have to worry about this first. You just have to follow my instructions. Come back after you’re done outside. Cultivate in seclusion in the domain space.”
“Yes, Master.”
“How are Liu Wen and Yang Tianqi now? I haven’t seen them for a long time.”
Little Man could not help but cover her mouth and laugh when she mentioned the two children.
“Master, I was about to tell you just now.”
“What’s wrong? Did the two of them cause trouble again?”
“They didn’t cause any trouble, but they really got into trouble.”
“What kind of trouble?”
In Ping City, in a prosperous district, there was a red tall building. There were many people coming and going.
This tall building was more than ten stories tall. It looked like a red pagoda built on the ground.
At the top of the red pagoda, in a small elegantly decorated room, Liu Wen and Yang Tianqi were lying beside the window with bitter expressions. They looked at the crowd coming and going below like two little birds locked in a cage.
“If it really doesn’t work out, we’ll fall out with them and explain this matter. We can’t just stay here forever.”
“How can we fall out? Xiaoqian had no choice. She didn’t want to involve the two of us either. However, who knew that such a thing would happen?”
“Old Yang, look at the situation now. The two of us are going to serve our master for the rest of our lives. But now the Fox Clan is on us, will you really be their prince consort? Don’t tell me you plan to be the Patriarch here in the future?”
Yang Tianqi had always been very generous in the past, but today, he was shy and stammered, as if there were always some things that were difficult to part with.
“I don’t think it’s as bad as you think. There might be other ways to compromise.”
“Forget it. How old are you? We’re only in our teens. We have just built our foundation. Instead of cultivating properly, you want to find such a dual cultivation partner. Can you have a future?”
Liu Wen was furious with Yang Tianqi.
“Besides, if you want to find someone, you should find someone from the human race, okay? If you find a demon and a fox, the two of you will cultivate completely different cultivation techniques. At that time, you will restrain each other. If everyone can’t improve even if you pester each other, what is your goal?”
Yang Tianqi said with a pained expression, “Actually, dual cultivation partners don’t have to have suitable cultivation techniques between them. They can also cultivate their own cultivation techniques.”
“Come on, I think you’re obsessed. If Master finds out what you’ve become, you’ll really be scolded by him.”
“I know.”
Yang Tianqi looked gloomily at the newly built courtyard in the distance.
There were many people coming and going inside, and most of them were young people. That was a place that his master had just built recently. His master wanted to build such a huge academy here and recruit disciples to guide the young humans on the right track.
Now, the young people who came to sign up had already officially entered the school. However, they did not know where their master was now. He had not appeared for a long time. The two of them had been left here by their master to cultivate in the mortal world. Now, they were in trouble.

Just as the two of them were chatting gloomily, the door behind them suddenly rang. The door was pushed open and a very handsome woman walked in.
This girl had a pair of watery eyes and fair skin. Her small nose was already in the shape of a tall and straight nose. However, the big ears on both sides were furry and had a lot of fur. She did not look like a human.
“Young Master Yang, Young Master Liu.”
The little fox called out softly. Her voice was very weak, and Yang Tianqi’s heart almost melted.
“Xiaoqian, why are you here?”
Liu Wen’s face darkened. “What do you mean why are you here? If they don’t come soon, the two of us will be locked up here for half a month.”
“Why are you talking like that?”
Yang Tianqi smiled awkwardly and looked at the little fox. “Xiaoqian, don’t listen to his nonsense. His mouth is a little vicious, but he’s still a very good person. How is it? What did your grandma say?”
Xiaoqian shook her head sadly. Her pitiful appearance made people want to go up and comfort her injured heart.
“Grandma won’t let you leave.”
Yang Tianqi hurriedly said before Liu Wen could speak, “It’s fine. We will definitely be able to think of another way. When Master returns, he will definitely have a way.”
Xiaoqian said in frustration, “I told Grandma about your master, but Grandma has never heard of such a person. She said that she would come personally when your master returns.”
Liu Wen was furious. He said angrily, “Does your grandma know her place? How dare you let Master come here? Can Master come here casually?”
Xiaoqian was also angry at Liu Wen’s words. She flushed red and retorted, “I’ll think of a way to let you go, but you can’t insult me like this. I’m doing this for the sake of the entire family. This is the family’s rule. You can’t blame me!”
Yang Tianqi was flustered when he saw this little sister angry.
“Liu Wen! Look at what you’re saying. Just tell Master when he comes back. I believe that Master will not blame you since he has such a good temper.”
“Old Yang, have you been blinded by women? Master is busy with so many things every day and works hard for the entire human race every day. Why are you troubling Master for such a small matter? In my opinion, if the two of us jump down from here now, nothing will happen. It won’t be as troublesome as you!”
Xiaoqian said, “Grandma said that if the two of you jump down from here and leave half of your body behind, you can be the Patriarch.”
“What? You’re too vicious. If we really jump down from here and die, you still want to lock us here?”
“Grandma said that even if you fell to your death, you have to stay.”
Liu Wen was so angry that he jumped up and down.
The two of them were originally traveling in the wilderness when they encountered this little girl called Xiaoqian.
It turned out that Xiaoqian’s father was the Patriarch of the White Fox Clan. He represented the family to Rong City to negotiate with other demons.
However, they did not expect that he would already be dead after encountering such a thing. This Patriarch was still very young and only had one child. Xiaoqian had to be the pillar of their entire family.
However, the rule of their White Fox Clan was that girls could not be the Patriarch. They had to let the woman’s husband be the Patriarch after they got married.
Yang Tianqi happened to meet the little fox in the wilderness.
This little fox was heartbroken by her father’s death. She wanted to secretly run to Rong City, but she was stopped by another group of demons halfway. She had originally planned to kill and eat them, but in the end, she was saved by Yang Tianqi and Liu Wen.
The two of them felt that they had done a great thing and were quite happy. They proudly sent the little fox back personally. In the end, they did not expect to be welcomed with three days of house arrest.
There was a rule in the White Fox Clan that if a clansman who had yet to marry was saved by the opposite sex, they had to become dual cultivation partners.
In addition, the entire White Fox Clan was leaderless now. They needed a Patriarch. This kid happened to save the little fox’s life and helped the entire Fox Clan continue their bloodline.
The two of them were still young. It was not the time to think about those things.
In addition, their lives belonged to their master now, so they did not dare to accept such a request without their master’s permission. Therefore, the two of them were locked in the tall building.
There was no chance of getting out of here.
Although in the middle, Little Man had been here once and understood some of their situation, the old lady of the Fox Clan was very firm. She had to keep Yang Tianqi and make him the prince consort.
Even if Hu Jiujiu personally appeared, the old lady said that this was a rule set by her ancestors and could not be changed no matter what.
Hu Jiujiu had been busy with the establishment of the academy recently. Little Man also had a few city defense fortifications that needed Little Man to deal with. The two of them were extremely busy and did not have the energy to save the two boys.
In addition, Li Yuanqing had disappeared for a period of time for some reason. The two of them could only wait here obediently. Although the little fox was pleading for them every day, she could not persuade the old lady at all.
“Why don’t you forget it? Liu Wen, tell Master that I was unfilial. I can’t implicate you and lock you here. Leave.”
Yang Tianqi suddenly turned around and looked at the wall.
Liu Wen stared at him in disbelief. “Are you serious? We agreed to leave together. Are you really planning to be a live-in son-in-law here?”
“Then what else can we do now? We’ve already been locked up here for so many days. Even Sister Little Man and Sister Little Jiu can’t do anything. What else can we do?”
“But we can’t just find a dual cultivation partner without Master’s permission!”
“There’s no need for outsiders to point out what kind of husband my daughter of the White Fox Clan is looking for.”
Just as the two of them were arguing, they suddenly heard an old voice outside the door.

The little fox looked behind her in panic.
“Grandma, why are you here?”
The old granny gently patted the little fox’s head. “Xiaoqian, there’s nothing for you to do here. You can leave first. I’ll talk to them.”
“Grandma, don’t make things difficult for them. They’re both very good people.”
“Don’t worry, I won’t make things difficult for them.”
