Three-quarters of the platform had been built.
The diligent Yaksha was sweating profusely, multitasking.
Occasionally, he would rush to the monster grinding tower to kill the monsters that dropped, then close the trapdoor of the monster grinding tower to pick up the dropped items.
When there were no more monsters, he would return to the stone-grinding machine and continue to swing his pickaxe.
Jiang Xuan felt a little ashamed when he saw how hard it was.
Pursing his lips, Jiang Xuan sighed."
"In the next mine, I'll find some iron to make some funnels so that the mandrill won't have to go in to get things.”
Hmm…
There was indeed a hint of exploitation.
However, it wasn't as if Jiang Xuan hadn't advised the mandrill before. The monsters that fell from the monster grinding tower weren't too threatening, so he could have asked someone else to come.
But the mandrill refused.
The answer he gave was also very standard.
Zhong Li was his superior, and he certainly didn't want Zhong Li to do such physical work.
Jiang Xuan was the person Zhong Li had designated to protect. The demon understood how important Jiang Xuan was to Liyue and naturally didn't want him to be in danger.
As for Gan Yu, Ningguang, and Ke Qing…
It was impossible for the three little girls to kill monsters and pick up things like rotten meat and bones.
In the end, he decided that he was the most suitable.
The mandrill didn't reject it either. It even liked to kill monsters.
Yakshas were indeed very murderous among the immortals.
However, according to the mandrill, every time he killed a monster in this world, he could always sense that something had entered his body.
That power seemed to be suppressing the corrosion of the negative karma. Although it couldn't be eradicated, if it was only to alleviate it, it would be comparable to the effect of the Mind Suppressing Powder.
Since that was the case, Jiang Xuan decided to let him go.
In any case, the mandrill shared his physique and was bound to him. The monsters he killed were also considered his mission indicators.
With the speed at which he was grinding the monster towers, Jiang Xuan estimated that he should be able to kill 70 monsters before sunset.
When night fell, the thirty monsters were quickly cleared.
Jiang Xuan was certain that he would be able to complete the system mission today.
He was just thinking about what good things he might get.
As he pondered, Jiang Xuan didn't stop moving.
Thanks to the continuous support of the mandrill, he and Zhong Li had basically completed the construction of the huge base on the sky island.
The remaining quarter was only a matter of ten minutes.
This also made Condensed Light and the others click their tongues.
However, he still couldn't accept it when he witnessed such a magnificent feat with his own eyes.
However, after they stayed for a long time in the future, he would probably learn how to build a big villa in an afternoon.
"Jiang Xuan, you seem very happy.”
The ringing of the bell was accompanied by a cool breeze as Jiang Xuan turned around.
He realized that Gan Yu was squatting beside him, resting her chin on her hands and looking at him adorably.
Jiang Xuan chuckled and continued to pile up the stones.
" Of course. I've been wandering around this world all by myself. I'm lonely and I don't feel safe…"
"Now that I have reliable friends like you with me, my progress has far exceeded my plan in the past few days.”
"Moreover, compared to the boring work of cutting trees alone in the past, now, even if it's a pile of stones, I have Gan Yu to chat with me. Isn't this worth being happy about?”
Upon hearing Jiang Xuan's sincere words, Gan Yu blushed and tucked her hair in shyness.
"Oh…it's not that exaggerated.”
" Actually, everyone knows that we haven't familiarized ourselves with this world yet. Therefore, it has always been Jiang Xuan leading us…"
"I…and everyone else are very grateful to Jiang Xuan.”
"When we get to know each other better, we'll become people who can help Jiang Xuan as soon as possible. Also, Liyue will accompany you to explore this world.”
After stacking the last stone in his hand, Jiang Xuan stood up and stretched.
He looked at Gan Yu, who was still squatting, and the latter looked up at him with a silly look.
From this vantage point, he naturally saw some scenery that he shouldn't see.
However, Jiang Xuan didn't feel embarrassed. He pulled Gan Yu up and chuckled.
"Don't underestimate your own role, Gan Yu. Sometimes, companionship is a kind of salvation.”
"... Yeah."
Gan Yu slightly lowered her eyebrows, her beautiful eyes sparkling. The young girl's worries seemed to have started to sweep over from half a year ago.
" Alright, I'm almost done here. When Zhong Li is done, the island will be temporarily completed.”
Jiang Xuan didn't notice that something was wrong with Gan Yu. He placed his hands on his hips and sized up the fiery island.
Carved Clear and Condensed Light's soil had also been settled.
Ke Qing had planned a rather large vegetable plot. Following Jiang Xuan's instructions, she filled it with water and planted the seeds.
However, he was still unwilling to use bone powder.
As for Ningguang, he found a place to plant a sapling.
The mandrill was still running, and Zhong Li was building blocks without a word.
There were only six people on the island, but it was exceptionally lively and peaceful, which made Jiang Xuan even happier.
After some thought, Jiang Xuan beckoned Gan Yu over to Ningguang.
At this moment, Condensed Light was also looking at the bone powder in the box, hesitating whether or not to use it.
Thinking about it, grinding the bones of humanoid creatures into powder as fertilizer was still a little unacceptable for them.
"Light Condensation."
Su Huai greeted him, and Ning Guang temporarily closed the box, giving up on using the bone powder.
Turning around, she saw that after working for a whole day, Ning Guang was as elegant as ever.
It was just that the platinum cheongsam was a little dirty.
"Jiang Xuan, are you done with your work? You've worked hard."
Ningguang chuckled and teased,
"Unfortunately, there are no tools on the island. Otherwise, I could let you taste my tea ceremony.”
Jiang Xuan nodded with a smile.
"If I have the chance in the future, I definitely won't waste this honor.”
"The initial construction of the island has already ended. It's still early. I came to look for you to ask when Liyue plans to send the first batch of pioneers in.”
When it came to serious matters, Ningguang's smile faded slightly. He could not help but want to pinch his pipe.
However, he suddenly remembered that he didn't control his strength properly and crushed it in one go.
He crossed his arms and pondered for a moment before saying softly,
" My original plan was to do it as soon as possible. After all, it's a matter of resources…"
" But after experiencing the wonders of this world today, I feel that we shouldn't rush things…"
As soon as he finished speaking, Ke Qing suddenly walked over quickly and interrupted Ning Guang.
"I think it's better to be faster."
There was a lot of dirt on her face, making the exquisite and capable planet of Epsilon look a little cute.
But Ke Qing still said quickly,
"The Immortal Ceremony is imminent, we need to seize every moment to develop resources and improve ourselves.”
" Only when the Emperor sees the results of our hard work and sees our future will Liyue be allowed to truly walk on the path of self-reliance!”
"I will never allow the people of Liyue to become like Mond and those giant babies!”
Hearing this, Ning Guang frowned slightly.
"Carved Clear!"
"…Sorry, I misspoke."
Ke Qing took a deep breath and stared at Ning Guang with bright eyes.
The latter secretly glanced at Zhong Li. Seeing that Zhong Li was still calmly piling stones, he felt relieved.
After pondering for a moment, he shook his head and said,"
" According to the original plan, we definitely can't do it tomorrow…"
Before she could finish, Ning Guang saw Ke Qing opening her mouth to refute.
He hurriedly continued,
"Keqing, you and Jiang Xuan and Ganyu have experienced the dangers of this world. Otherwise, you can go and see the monsters that the Demon Slayer Great Sage is killing.”
"This world is rich in resources and has endless value, but I will not allow the people of Liyue, the Thousand Rock Army…to make meaningless sacrifices.”
This sentence completely silenced her.
Even thinking that her eagerness might have caused the death of many Liyue citizens, Ke Qing felt a little ashamed.
Seeing Ke Qing like this, Ning Guang shook his head in his heart. His expression did not change as he said,
"But Keqing, what you said makes sense. Indeed, we can't waste too much time.”
"I think…"
Ning Guang fell silent for a moment before looking up at Jiang Xuan.
"Two days…Two days later, the Thousand Rock Army and the first batch of miners will enter.”
"Two days?"
Jiang Xuan pursed his lips into a smile and said softly,"
" Yes, it's enough for you to familiarize yourself with it and plan the blueprint of the future mining city.”
" Miners…city?!"
