Chapter 251: I Can Represent Yatun's Senior Management (Requesting Monthly Pass)
"This place?"
"Is this really where we're going to live?"
"What about Harbor City, why can't I see it?"
"It's still there, but, but it's gotten so much bigger, it forms such a large circle now."
"....."
The 6000 people of Yatun returning from the Underworld were now looking bewilderedly at the completely new island before them.
As The Lu Wei Family from the Ancient Chronicles awakened one after another, displaying Miracle Blossom, in conjunction with various seeds brought by the Initial Sprout Holy Pouch,
The entire Yatun Archipelago underwent a rebirth all at once.
The Stellar Coast did not possess much Miracle Power, but it still held an essence of Miracle.
The essence was much lower in grade than Miracle Power itself.
However, its advantage over Miracle Power lay in its better ability to unearth the citizens' inherent sense of belonging to the birthplace of Yatun, guiding them into the new world of Yatun, the Miracle Kingdom.
Beyond the Stellar Coast lay two islands, the Holy Temple, and the Academy.
Although geographically, the Yatun Archipelago indeed had east, south, west, and north distinctions, because of the Barrier, the paths leading to Yatun were definite.
Anyone wishing to enter Yatun must first pass through the Stellar Coast.
And the only one who can directly reach the interior of Yatun is the Ancient City.
In other words, if it's migrants or merchants visiting, all they need to do is travel the usual sea route and enter through the Stellar Coast.
You won't go deeper, because mortals are not qualified to go deeper.
On the contrary, if Miracle Citizens are coming, they must first reach the Ancient City, where Lyon himself guards, and at the same time, Lyon is also the warden of the Yatun Grand Prison.
Netherworld Island is not the Grand Prison; the prison is merely built there.
The true Netherworld Island is very prosperous, divided into surface and underworld sections, the underworld being a special sub-space created by the combined Protection of five immensely powerful Masters of Miracles from the World of Avalon: Isefia, Sherri the Conqueror of Transcendence, the fairy-tale Empress Lilith, Lyon the embodiment of Greedy World and Calamity Ashes, and The Lu Wei Family, pillars of the far eastern mythology.
Only those with a special key or Authority can enter.
And these individuals, in Yatun, are called 'Huo Jin Gods'.
They are the gods of disaster born from the Miracle Blossom of the Rakshasa Feast, the Miracle Citizens from the five siblings of the Ancient Chronicles, and among the eighty-eight vacancies, some are now temporarily filled by Sacred Beasts, a number of people from Yatun, and the Treant Race.
"Boom!"
From the endless depths below, eighty-eight pillars of dark text soared into the sky, signifying the evil karma of world disasters, as well as the power of the Rakshasa Feast.
Those who feed on evil karma, disasters, and sins are the Huo Jin Gods, and the Rakshasa Feast is the origin, creator, and mother of all Huo Jin Gods.
Those who plunge into it, regardless of their former race, will transform into the Huo Jin God race.
A simple cloth outfit with a katana at the waist, wooden clogs on the feet, as if a ronin from ancient times.
As for the previous body and power, they are sealed in this katana, slumbering in the form of their 'true name.'
Only when the Huo Jin God voluntarily releases it, or when their current divine incarnation is destroyed, will they awaken.
Luckily, among the Treants, there was a group of youngsters unable to become a fighting force due to their age, now given the opportunity, naturally they signed up eagerly.
Three-quarters of the eighty-eight came from the Treant Race; their swords sealed the powers of Fairies, Treants, Avalon, the Greedy World, and a million other gods.
Shadow Dance Group
Bailuo established this new organization in Yatun, much like a police department, managed by Huo Jin Gods, specializing in catching criminals, guarding prisoners.
"The power... of a god..."
Yue Xi, Glarus's adoptive daughter, the newest promoted witch of Yatun, also a New Citizen allowed by Bailuo to bathe in the dragon's blessing, a true New Yatun Person.
And now, Yue Xi was appointed to manage the mortals in the southwest region of the Stellar Coast.
Many of them were acquaintances of Yue Xi, and with her gentle nature, she was most suited for the job as a new Miracle Citizen.
"Young lady, hey~~ young lady!"
"Hm?"
Yue Xi heard someone calling her, quite puzzled, for the term 'little girl' was strangely odd.
People who knew her would never address her that way, they all called her Little Yue Xi, Yue Xi, or Lady Yue Xi.
But little girl? A stranger?
Yue Xi quickly turned around to locate the source of the voice but saw no one.
"Over here, over here."
Following the sound, Yue Xi looked toward the nearby coast, and then across the horizon, she spotted a small sailboat.
The boat was tiny, seating only about four or five people, an ancient life-saving wooden vessel.
On the small sailboat sat a plump, white-haired old man, smiling at Yue Xi. His round beer belly pushed against his white cloth shirt, complementing his kind and gentle smile, which was quite endearing.
"Eh?"
Yue Xi wasn't naive; someone able to project their voice into her ears from such a distance couldn't possibly be an ordinary person.
But the question was, how had he gotten in?
"An intruder?"
Yue Xi, who had long since devoted her heart to Yatun, immediately thought of a foreign invasion when faced with this situation. Before she could contact the Huojin God or the Yatun Navy, a tall figure overshadowed the girl.
"....."
Having been far away before, Yue Xi hadn't noticed, but now, up close, the girl could feel just how imposing the old man's stature was.
He had to be at least 2.4 meters tall, a giant compared to Yue Xi's mere 1.55 meters, like an adult towering over a child.
"Since when?!"
The stranger's speed was unimaginable, and Yue Xi hadn't noticed his approach until he was already behind her.
Yet Yue Xi was a distinguished Regular Witch of the Extraordinary class, having received the Grace of the Dragon of Miracles, her training during this period was as natural as a fish swimming, growing stronger at an astonishing rate every day.
However, the gap was too wide, she and the portly old man were simply not on the same level!
"Don't be afraid, don't be afraid. I am not a bad person,"
"Really, truly, little girl, I'm here to visit Yatun," the old man said, reaching deep into his pocket and then producing several candies wrapped in paper, "Here, have some candy, could you please go and notify the higher-ups of Yatun for me?"
"Who are you?"
"Please state your identity and purpose immediately!"
Yue Xi discovered she couldn't contact anyone at all; she didn't know what the old man had done, but it felt as though her connection to the world had been severed, isolating her completely.
But fortunately, upon sensing something was off about the old man, Yue Xi immediately triggered the alarm.
By now, the nearest high-ranking officials of Yatun should have arrived!
In Yatun, Bailuo regarded his people highly.
Furthermore, with an abundance of Miracle Entities, what others might hesitate to deploy, to Yatun, to Bailuo, it was clear-cut—if someone dared to invade, he dare unleash a Miracle Entity.
"Such a sharp blade, as if the next second, heads will roll,"
"Such terrifying youth..."
The old man, who had had his hands spread, suddenly squinted his eyes, displaying a friendly smile. He was targeted, watched by an intensely frightful Miracle Power.
"Mr. Rakshasa!"
Behind the old man stood Rakshasa, holding a sword cane.
He had arrived, rushing over upon receiving Yue Xi's alarm.
"Do you need something, sir? I can represent the high-ranking officials of Yatun," stated Rakshasa, his attitude cautious. No help for it—the old man was strong!
