Saleen nodded while listening to Jason's opinion.

Jason was highly organized. There was nothing wrong with what he had said. When the Myers Continent advanced again and its power rose to level-15, the Lord of Glory, a god from a different plane, would definitely descend through his clone.

The rank of this clone would probably be level-14.

Perhaps the Lord of Glory would not dare to come but would send a clone. This was not a punishable offense according to the Rules of the plane.

The Lord of Glory was the strongest grade-15 god. He was probably ready to advance to level-16. A level-16 god was truly frightening. Saleen needed to advance quickly. Matters involving these hidden schemes should be left to the Nature Faith to handle.

As the Nature Faith expanded, Saleen would have true power that was capable of interfering with the empire in his hands. As a prince, he had annexed Phoenix and was not too suitable for it from the beginning. If he once again used his troops to battle on Qin lands, the Golden Plains would probably have sufficient reason to force Lex to abdicate her position.

Jason was still the ruthless one: He had actually thought of using Safilos.

Safilos should now be strong enough to be at the top among those at level-10. He could indeed go and tempt him a little and allow him to return to the summit of power, how about that?

Saleen swiftly dreamt up a few plans in his mind and immediately said to Jason, ”Then I will return and make some preparations before going to see Safilos.”

”Mm, you can bring him some equipment as a gift. Safilos's weapon is already sufficient for him to use it for his entire lifetime. He needs armor.”

”I understand, Jason.” Saleen thought that if it was a set of armor he had refined himself, he could still leave a hidden weakness in it. If Safilos used it, it would mean he had been had.

All mages would do this. Thus, the person who hired the mage to refine equipment normally would not oppose the mage.

Saleen had never thought the day would come when he would compromise with Safilos, and both parties could even claim they each needed that.

After Saleen returned to Metatrin City, he waited till October before acting. The Violet Angel had already finished collecting all the plant seeds in the divine kingdom fragment and had also cut down all passable wood materials and brought them back. The lightning warriors had even captured a significant number of bugs.

Saleen handed the seeds to Eleanor. She was delighted! Saleen thought for a moment and allowed the Winged Skull to stay in Metatrin to continue absorbing the three-eyed god's godly power.

Saleen wanted to meet with Safilos, but the divine kingdom fragment had not yet been completely refined. In the end, Saleen allowed his magic amplifier's Weapon's Spirit to consume the divine kingdom fragment. If he brought Floating City and went into Safilos's empire, he might be posturing too much.

He could not always let Safilos think that he was coercing him, right? Saleen had no choice but to bring Sika, as well as Rafel. After they had arrived at Daliang City by teleportation portal, they teleported once more from Daliang City to New Demon City.

Under Cuisi's management, New Demon City had become extremely prosperous. The things here led directly to the ruins of Pompeii; the west side was the territory of the Southwest aristocracy. But New Demon City relied only on magic nets for its defense, and few dominant beings were stationed here. Thus, Saleen did not directly arrive there by teleportation to avoid having others use their teleportation portals to enter Metatrin City after the city was attacked and occupied.

Shortly after his arrival, Saleen saw that the construction of the magic nets was complete. Of the demons being cultivated here, the number of imps was not small. What made Saleen feel comfortable was that within a year's time maximum, Cuisi's rank had already risen to level-10.

He had been promoted to level-10, and his combat ability had increased to a level that was somewhat stronger than humans. Further, Cuisi had followed Saleen from a relatively earlier time, and the degree of loyalty of this demon had already been cultivated. There was basically no chance of his betrayal to occur.

Saleen had even arranged for Cuisi and Rafel to have a duel. The true purpose was to allow Rafel to judge Cuisi's combat ability and to give him some pointers along the way.

Rafel knew that Cuisi was a masculine demon. After he had been transformed to have a woman's appearance by Nailisi, she found this extremely funny. She saw that Saleen placed a great deal of importance on this demon, so she would not attempt the impossible. She gave Cuisi some pointers for his spear skills.

Cuisi's power was the strongest among the demons, but it did not amount to much compared to a battle angel. Cuisi had sought Rafel's guidance so he could continue to use his skills until level-13.

This was considered a fortune. The guidance of a battle angel like Rafel was extremely targeted. If it had been someone else, he would not have gained many benefits.

Saleen met with the Southwest aristocrats in New Demon City once again. They had already cultivated many mages at Lex's suggestion. Although they would not go to war for these aristocrats, they would help defend the city and produce equipment. It would be much cheaper to pay these mages instead of those hired at the last minute.

The Southwest aristocrats had a reputation for being extremely liberal. Many aristocrats were even starting to look for children in their clan to cultivate as mages.

For the mages of these clans, their expenses were hefty. However, in the end, they could protect the clans' interests.

Because Lex had already proclaimed that for all aristocrats if they did not have mages in their clan, they would not be able to obtain the benefits that they should rightfully have.

Far from rejecting the aristocrats' requests, Saleen chatted candidly with them and promised to provide opportunities to study magic in Bitter Water Prefecture. He also agreed to dispatch mages to search for children who were suited to cultivating magic within the clans of the aristocrats.

With this, the entire Southwest Qin would be able to transverse about stably.

The aristocrats would provide Lex with even more manpower and monetary support, while Lex would cultivate a large number of mages for the aristocrats. It was a win-win situation.

To the aristocrats, the deal was definitely worthwhile. They also knew that the situation on the continent was about to change. Without mages, their clans would eventually be replaced.
