On the day that the structures for the sea community were burned as tribute to the Underworld, the ghosts were very excited as they gathered around to watch it happen. As each enormous cruise ship appeared upon the sea, the undead masses who floated at the edge of the shore boiled with excitement!

They had been waiting for countless days, thinking about when they would be able to move into their new home. Now that they finally saw its appearance, their reaction was: isn’t this too luxurious?!

The undead who chose to move into the offshore community naturally registered their belongings as payment, and they were thus recorded in the category of ’settled citizens’ who were not willing to transcend for the time being.

In contrast, there were also some undead who felt they had seen enough of life as ghosts and wanted to ’depart’ from the world. These undead gathered at the place where the Orcs of Sarna had been imprisoned, and waited for Xu Yao to send them off, onto their next journey.

The Orcs who had originally been imprisoned at the site had already been sent into reincarnation circle through Xu Yao’s powers. There were no longer any undead Orcs on Huaxia.

Xu Yao and Le Yao were also not the same ’people’ as they previously had been. The things that they would be unable to accomplish together in the past could now be done by just one person. There was no longer even a need for ceremonies, just two or three spells were enough to aid thousands of souls in their transcension.

As there were no longer any undead Orcs to guard, the soldiers on duty had instead been tasked with maintaining order in the Underworld itself. It could be said that they had become the first group of ghost sentinels after this reconstruction of the Underworld, with Shen Weilin being their leader.

As for Ji Fengyu, Bei Hongli, Song He, Wang Feixia, and the others, they naturally had chosen to focus on the development of various businesses within the Underworld. Supermarkets, hotels, teahouses, clothing and hat shops, shoe shops and other recreational stores were opened. All of these stores would serve to diversify the Underworld again, allowing more undead people to have jobs to do instead of idling around every day.

Previously there had been no place to buy or sell things, but now, everything was different.

A number of soldiers were responsible for providing all kinds of goods to the Underworld and ghosts would trade for these items using the locations of their buried antiques, in addition to abiding by the new laws of the Underworld. It was that simple.

That night Le Yao said to Xu Yao, “Today, I tried designing a new light brain model with Yan Jie. Look at all the functions we added. I hope it’ll be a success this time. Otherwise, with so many ghosts wanting to register, soon Ji Fengyu will die from the exhaustion of writing too much.”

“If all these specifications were included, then there shouldn’t be any big problems. And... about this matter, there’s something else I want to tell you.” Xu Yao patted his pillow. “Come on, don’t look at that string of data anymore. Can you also pay attention to me?” For the first time, Mr General’s voice was laced with a groundbreaking sadness.

“How can you be this cute?” Le Yao said, as he climbed into the bed and intertwined his leg with Xu Yao’s, “Tell me, what’s the matter?”

“I may need to make a trip back to Tarot after the relocation of the camp is finalized. I want to try and move the Blessing Tree to Huaxia.”

“Move the Blessing Tree?!” Le Yao’s mouth fell open in surprise, “Are you talking about the Blessing Tree in Xingdu’s Fu Ta Yuan?”

What a devil of an idea!

“Calm down first. It’s just an idea at the moment and might not necessarily be realized.”

Xu Yao added, “At the cold shed today, I heard Aunt Yu talk about the propagation of plants using the ’cutting’ method and suddenly thought of this idea. How about we try taking a branch from the Blessing Tree and after using our spiritual qi to maintain its life, nurture this offshoot? In the case that we do manage to ’plant’ it here, we can use it as a conduit. It will make it more convenient to purify the undead souls and will guide them to reincarnate by themselves in the future.”

Could such an easy and convenient method—of nurturing a second Blessing Tree like the one in Tarot—actually be possible? Having the undead enter the reincarnation cycle by themselves???

But it really would make things easier...

Le Yao had thought that his brain hole was quite big during ordinary occasions, but now he found that Xu Yao’s brain hole was even bigger than his own. His own brain was filled with the development of the Underworld, but this person’s brain might be filled with the whole universe.

“What if this ends up destroying the Blessing Tree in Tarot?” Le Yao was a little worried.

“There are Blessing Trees in every big or small city in Planet Tarot, so their number is probably more than we can imagine. Xingdu’s Fu Ta Yuan is not the only option for the undead who wish to cleanse their resentment, so we should have no problem finding a place where there are no souls around.”

The Blessing Tree seemed to have not been included in any species list for cultivation. If he really wanted to replant one on Huaxia, he could only try the ’cutting’ method.

“So when shall we go?”

“After moving south, we can find a place suitable for planting the Blessing Tree branch. It will need to be a place with plenty of spiritual qi.” Xu Yao added, “After all of that’s done, we can take the children to Tarot as well.”

That would be a good idea.

Their children had yet to see Tarot. If they brought them along, although they were still small, and for the most part, wouldn’t be able to remember any of the sightseeing, there was no harm in traveling to more places together.

At the thought of the children, Le Yao became a little excited and immediately wanted to see them again.

Recently, the three little guys were growing to be more and more lovely. They were white, tender and cute, just like meaty little lotus roots! Touching them gently—their skin would feel so smooth and soft!

Most importantly, they would smile at him!

Recently, his favorite pastime was to change the children’s diapers. Because, after changing, the little guys would hold onto his fingers. Those little fists were still small and didn’t have much strength but just by holding his finger ever so lightly, his heart, if it could, would definitely melt each time!

He hadn’t felt this when the children used to drink nutritional solutions. However, now, the children had reached the stage of drinking milk, and were always giving off a light milky fragrance.

It smells very sweet.

Le Yao had just thought of wanting to climb down from the bed when Xu Yao quickly reached out and fished him into the quilt again.

“My wife, look at what time it is already? Are you going to see them again? With our parents and Leslie keep watching, you can sleep in peace, baby.”

“I just want to see them once more,” Le Yao said, in light protest. “Don’t you think they’re getting chubbier and cuter? I can’t look at them enough, ah.”

“Madam, please look at your pitiful husband here. Am I not lovely anymore? I’ll be jealous if you keep leaving me to go see them again.”

Le Yao: “...”

If you want to eat your children’s vinegar, then just eat! There’s no need to use your abdominal muscles to rub against mine!

At last, Le Yao had no resistance to someone’s strong muscles. He canceled his plans to see his babies and then sleep in favour of choosing to appease his ’jug of vinegar’ husband with a variety of positions.

In the twinkling of an eye, the temperature dropped from its scorching hot intensity to a lot more bearable degree of temperature, both during the morning and the evening. It was also no longer necessary to wear sunscreen suits anymore when venturing outside.

The soldiers of the Flying Wolf Division also began to prepare for the relocation. This was an imperative task because, in the near future, the temperature would only continue to drop rapidly and, soon enough, their current location would no longer be suitable for human habitation.

The other station was located in the south. With the exception of winter, the temperature there was too high for habitation during the rest of the year. Thus, it was only when it was nearing winter that they would relocate and spend a season there.

The Command Center, cafeteria, hospital, living area, supermarket and other facilities would all need to be transferred. This time, Le Yao was going to see what a real large-scale move looked like.

The cafeteria was a large warship; the hospital was a spaceship; the mobile housing units in the living area could be collected and placed into the warship; and the Command Center was also a small warship.

Everyone had said that everything was movable, which turned out to be true indeed. There was no fault with it, except for perhaps the shocking momentum it created.

On the day of the move, Le Yao specifically remembered to check the lower side of his communication device. At that moment, the outdoor temperature displayed was 21℃.

This could be said to be a very suitable temperature for human survival, but according to Xu Yao, the temperature would then plummet to below zero and reach minus 20 degrees in just a week!

Furthermore, it could even reach a negative of 90 degrees below zero at its coldest. It was no joke that a frozen stick would be released if you urinated outside at that time!

At present, the temperature of Huaxia was oscillating between two extremes, and this was directly related to the change in the tilt of the angle of the Earth’s axis of rotation. It was something that couldn’t be reversed or resolved by human beings.

“We’ll move over now and return when it gets warmer next year.” Xu Yao then added, “We’ll come back once it is time for all the flowers to bloom.”

“When will that be?” Le Yao asked.

“March. March will be a good time to return. Last year, we came back earlier, but it didn’t take long before a blizzard occurred. It was really very troublesome to clean up after it.”

After saying this, Xu Yao could feel that Le Yao was reluctant to go. “What’s the matter? You don’t want to go?”

“No, it’s not that. I’m just a little curious about what it will look like when it’s 90 degrees below zero...”

“We can come and take a look at that time, alright?” Xu Yao said, “It’s not that far. There’ll be no problem going back and forth within a day. You can also come to see Brother Fengyu and Brother Bei.”

The Le Xi Lai hotel would not be moved, along with the restaurants, inns and the offshore communities, which would still remain in place. They could continue to operate because the undead were not afraid of the cold and they wouldn’t encounter the problem of being frozen to death.

Le Yao, once again, felt relieved when thinking about the speed of hover cars. Not even mentioning that he could go back and forth once a day, even two times a day would still be feasible.

Le Yao suddenly pulled Xu Yao’s sleeve and whispered, “Husband, can you use teleportation?”

The spiritual power, which Xu Yao had originally borrowed from the Prince of Fengdu, had all been returned back to Le Yao’s body. Le Yao could feel that his body was much lighter, as if he had the energy to do anything that he wished. But he still hadn’t found the time to try those special skills yet.

Xu Yao smiled and then asked, “Like this?”

A circle of golden light flashed around him. In the next second, the spot where Xu Yao had stood had nothing, not even a shadow!

“Oh damn!” Le Yao was stunned.

The children had been staring at both of their parents just a few seconds ago. Suddenly, they saw their father disappear!

No one knew who started it but—

“Wu wa~” There was a single not-so-loud sob, then the other two also started to cry, until all three were bawling together!

Leslie opened the incubator and Le Yao started to coax them in a hurry, but not one of them would stop crying!

He then shouted, “Xu Yao!”

Xu Yao suddenly reappeared in that same spot within the next second. The children were stunned and promptly stopped crying in unison.

Le Yao: “...”

Xu Yao had only left less than two minutes ago. Seeing the tears in their children’s eyes, he asked, “Why are they crying?”

“Leslie, let the General know what happened,” Le Yao said in a plain tone.

Leslie would record the children and their process of growing up 24 hours a day every day, so he could directly show the scene that had just occurred to Xu Yao.

In the video, just after he had left, the children had directly burst into tears! And as soon as he returned, they stopped crying.

This obviously meant that the children were already able to recognize him as their dad!

Xu Yao couldn’t help but feel funny. He moved two steps to his left, and discovered that this movement was being chased by the children’s eyes; all three pairs of eyes followed the direction of his figure together. When Xu Yao stepped to the right again, the children’s eyes were still moving with him.

Three chubby little children pedaled their legs together and looked at Xu Yao with their big black eyes.

Xu Yao bent over, stroked their soft little faces and asked with a smile, “Are you looking for Daddy?”

The eldest of all three gnawed at his small dumpling-like fist with his toothless gums.

“Wa~”

The next second, he extended his little arms towards Xu Yao.

Xu Yao took off his coat and said, “Leslie, raise the temperature in the room.” He then picked his eldest son up carefully. He was so small that he could even hold him in just one arm. He gently swayed left and right, as if teasing the little guy in his arms.

“Hanghang, say Dad.”

Le Yao’s facial expression resembled that of a super sour lemon essence upon hearing that sentence. “He’s so small, there’s no way he can—“

“Da~”

The unexpected crisp sound was just loud enough for the couple to hear.

This one word immediately stunned both Le Yao and Xu Yao, and they could subconsciously respond with only a dumbfounded “Ah?”

...

Qiuxue: Hehe, both Xu Yao and Le Yao become super sour lemon essences when the buns are involved~

Noks: I went and googled white meaty lotus roots... and they reminded me of the mandrake from Harry Potter Year 3, which is the complete opposite of what these babies should be... >_<|||
