Chapter 284 (2/2)

“It was the Goddess of Light!”

“So the Goddess of Light believes in me… Girls tend to like me a lot…” Ye Lang also looked up at the skies, thanking all the girls who’d taken care of him in the past. It didn’t matter if they weren’t here, thanking them would never be wrong.

“...” The pope fell silent, privately complaining. I never said she believed in YOU!

At this moment, Ye Lang left the silent group of people, including the pope to walk out of the hut. He only wanted to see where he was.

Ye Lang looked around and frowned, “What are you all doing here? Why did you build such ugly houses?”

“We built them as a temporary shelter and also one for your safety, Sir. If you don’t like it, we’ll take them down immediately and we’ll leave!!” said Alvin and the rest.

“You’ll have to tear the houses down, yes, but as for leaving… There’s no need for that!” Ye Lang had an idea as he looked at the alchemy formations still left on the ground.

“Not leaving? Why?” No one understood, thinking what he said contradicted each other. If he said they didn’t need to leave, then why did they have to tear down the houses?

“I mean even if your work here is done, you still can’t go back. It’ll take at least a few years for that to recover. No, maybe even more!” Ye Lang smiled, not only because of their current condition but also because of seventh brother.

Once Ye Lang’s message arrived, seventh brother would definitely do something to the Gomera district. For his convenience, the fewer commoners there, the better.

Ye Lang continued, “And therefore, all of you need to build a new home. This is a very suitable place. I noticed there aren’t many farms in this area on the way here, it’s a waste!”

Almost everyone knew that very few people who lived around Sheng City farmed, as a respect to the presence of the sacred city. The original population of the towns around them were low anyway.

Various reasons led to the current scarcity of crop fields in the plains surrounding the city. He felt like it was a waste of the land’s resources.

However, there was indeed very few people living in the area. While you could say it was a waste, it was still a normal thing since there weren’t many people there to farm.

Because of this, Ye Lang felt like this crowd of a hundred thousand could definitely settle here. Sheng City shouldn’t have a problem with this!

“That’s not a bad idea at all!” nodded the pope. Although they didn’t know if he was sincere or he was just being polite, at least this meant Sheng City approved of this suggestion.

“I think that’s a great idea too, but sir, why do you want us to tear the houses down then?” asked Alvin, looking at Ye Lang.

If they were to settle, they still didn’t have to tear down the houses. Although they were emergency shelters, they weren’t of bad quality at all!

It wasn’t bad compared to some of their initial homes…

Why then?

The answer was simple…
