Chapter 191: Lu Ming: I’ll Poach Someone!
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
The Flame Clan ruins began with the square and the entrance to the ruins. In front of them was Flame City. Further ahead was a large forest, and beyond that was an unexplored area!
The ruins were vast. Just Flame City alone was enough for adventurers to explore for a while.
When Lu Ming and Velo arrived at the gate of Flame City, they saw that the gate had already been violently broken open. Crowds of people were walking in and out. From time to time, there were shoutings and suppressed cheers echoing from within the city.
Lu Ming did not need to enter the city to know what kind of chaotic scene was unfolding inside Flame City.
Frowning, Lu Ming simply stopped in his tracks.
“I’m not going in.”
Velo said, “Oh?”
“We’re not going in. Of course, if you want to go in, you can go by yourself, I’m not going in.”
Lu Ming spoke.
This left Velo speechless for some time.
If you’re not going in to look for opportunities, why are you here?!
But Lu Ming could not be bothered with all of that.
The war was dangerous and the city was in chaos. How could Lu Ming enter?
After a moment of thought, Lu Ming turned around, ready to leave the ruins and return to Nanxiang.
Day 152 of the Black Mist Calendar.
It was morning.
Lu Ming was back once again.
But, this time, he was not alone. Instead, he brought Cheng Cheng, Wei Lan, Fala, and Li Zitong.
They entered the ruins gate and arrived at the vast square.
At this moment, the square was still bustling with people, a scene of prosperity.
As early as yesterday, Lu Ming had already made a rough plan.
Leaving the square, they headed towards Flame City. Soon, the five of them arrived at the entrance of Flame City.
Lu Ming pointed to an empty space near the city gate.
“Let’s start here.”
With that, Li Zitong immediately nodded.
He stepped forward and circulated the strength of a Level Nine Mortal Realm with all his might!
Under the control of Li Zitong’s special ability, the earth on the ground quickly rose. In no time, two rows of dozens of single-storey courtyards appeared not far from the city gate of Flame City.
Fara took a step forward and spoke loudly to the onlookers.
“Exploring the ruins will certainly take a long time, and there may be days without any harvest.”
“Considering the continuous turmoil within Flame City, to save everyone’s time, we have built several houses here for your use. Consider it saving you the trouble of looking for accommodations.”
After saying this, Fala said no more.historical
Lu Ming stood behind Fala and carefully observed the reactions of the people present. When he saw a few people in the crowd show a glint of excitement and quietly withdraw, Lu Ming nodded lightly.
“It’s good enough.”
At this point, he had already achieved the effect he wanted.
Li Zitong’s construction of houses outside Flame City was just the beginning.
Soon, within a few tens of minutes, more Earth-element superhumans joined the construction team.
A small village quickly rose outside Flame City.
Afterward, some smart people with powerful backers occupied a few houses with the best locations.
After some simple modifications, a series of shops appeared.
There were plants within the ruins, but no exotic beasts.
For one to eat his fill, food had to be brought in from the outside.
Exploration also required tools and medicinal herbs—these things were clearly not available inside the ruins.
This presented a business opportunity
As the saying went, while some people were prospecting for gold and could not make ends meet, those who sold water to these gold diggers made a fortune.
The principle was the same.
In order to keep a low profile, Lu Ming took the lead but did not care about anything else. He simply brought Cheng Cheng, Wei Lan, and Fala to a remote house.
After Velo revealed his strength at the Third level Body Realm, no one else dared to compete with Lu Ming for the ownership of this house anymore – not that they could not win, but it was not worth it.
In this way, Lu Ming settled down in the Flame Clan ruins.
Of course, even though he had avoided the chaotic Flame City and found a relatively quiet place outside the city, the Flame Clan ruins was itself a turbulent place. Even if Lu Ming stayed far away, trouble might still find its way to him.
However, Lu Ming was well aware..
Wanting benefits without getting into trouble.. where in the world does that happen?
It was also on this same day that a great battle erupted in Flame City!
The Divine Dao Gang and Apelo’s group engaged in a fierce battle over a high-level Body Forging technique.
In the end, Apelo emerged victorious!
Reading the Body Forging technique in his hands, Apelo’s eyes shone brightly, completely focused.
After reading it through, Apelo looked up at the sky and laughed wildly, “Wonderful, wonderful! The Flame Clan’s ruins indeed offer many opportunities!”
With Apero’s Spirit Realm Level 1 strength, he was more than capable of taking the lead within the Flame Clan ruins!
With his bountiful harvest, Apelo even momentarily forgot about the matters concerning the people of Nanxiang and looked at the unexplored areas of Flame City with uncontrollable greed.
On the other side.
Jing Yi, accompanied by Jing Cong and more than ten loyal subordinates, had already bypassed Flame City and headed into the forest behind it.
Jing Yi had a clear objective, and while Jing Cong and the others didn’t know Jing Yi’s intentions, they could only follow behind him.
The journey was long.
Other than Jing Yi, no one knew where this group of people was headed.
In the morning.
With the help of Zhang Chengcheng and Wei Lan, Lu Ming began his daily routine exercises.
Like second nature, Lu Ming’s every move was precise and accurate.
He even had some spare energy to observe the response on his attribute panel.
As his attributes slowly increased, the other abnormality on the attribute panel also confirmed Lu Ming’s guess!
Void Realm (Beginner) (Advancing)..
He could sense that, along with the rise in his attributes, there seemed to be a mysterious energy, unlike any mystery factor, surging into his body from the outside world.
It was precisely because he had absorbed this energy that his Void Realm underwent changes.
Lu Ming could also sense that it might take an extremely long time for the further upgrade of the Void Realm. However, it did not matter. Wherever he farm attributes was essentially the same.
Time was Lu Ming’s best friend!
Morning routine exercises.
The rest of the time was spent cultivating the Body Forging Technique.
After falling asleep at night, he cultivated the Source Power Skill within the Void Space.
This was Lu Ming’s daily training plan.
There was no shortage of water nearby. Although it was a bit of a hassle to get water, Fala took the initiative to handle this task. She was well aware that Lu Ming and the others had sensitive identities, so it was best for them not to appear in front of people.
Food was delivered by Velo from the outside world. With Velo’s Third-level Physique Realm strength, running these errands was absolutely risk-free.
Moreover, as the business district gradually improved and developed, by evening, there were vendors selling water and food nearby—it seemed that the business district outside Flame City was already heading on the right track.
Inside Flame City, however, the sounds of battle continued.
Some were happy, while others were sad.
Some returned with treasures, while others perished.
But all of this had nothing to do with Lu Ming.
This was because this ruin itself was Lu Ming’s greatest opportunity!
Others were searching for treasures within the ruins.
Lu Ming was poaching..
