Chapter 442: Government Affairs Hall

The elder in the sea of books nodded and said, “That’s right. Just leave it to me. You don’t have to worry about it. From now on, this is my territory. No one can cause trouble here. Not even you!”

Seeing the elder’s serious face, Li Xiang could only play along and say, “Don’t worry. I’m not the kind of person who doesn’t know what’s important. I won’t make a move in such an important place!”

The elder in the sea of books had completely regarded this place as his new home. He felt a great sense of responsibility, especially when he saw the eyes that were filled with endless desire for knowledge.

Books were tools to spread knowledge. They were only valuable if they could spread knowledge.

In the past when he was in the true god library, he couldn’t spread the knowledge even if he wanted to because there was no one other than him.

In contrast, this place was very popular. He had to plan it well so that people could obtain knowledge more efficiently.

After all, the more people read these books, the more comprehension would be condensed on the books. When the comprehension was accumulated to a certain amount, it could even breed spirituality and it would not be difficult to breed a few more book spirits in the future.

…

Yang Mi and Chen Shu were very interested when they suddenly saw so many books, so they stayed in the Scripture Library.

Li Xiang did not stay any longer.

When the commoners in the Scripture Library saw so many books, they were extremely excited and did not want to leave. They threw themselves into the sea of books with great enthusiasm.

There were even people who entered the second level and found that there were a large number of cultivation methods and combat skills.

In the Myriad World Continent, only the batch of people who had become country lords would have the system interface and the ability to level up. Ordinary people did not have such an ability. They could only slowly level up through cultivation.

Therefore, cultivation methods were just a merit for the rulers of the countries who had systems. However, it was the only way to change their fate for ordinary people.

This time, Li Xiang had brought back 30 million books. Most of them were martial arts manuals, but a portion of them was from other races. Only about a million books were about martial arts suitable for human cultivation.

But even so, it was a huge amount.

It was just that these people didn’t have enough points and qualifications to exchange for high-level cultivation techniques.

Although there were many cultivation methods in the Scripture Library in the past, it wasn’t suitable for everyone. However, after obtaining so many new books about cultivation methods, there was no need to worry at all. There were hundreds of basic cultivation methods. No matter what physique one had, one could find a cultivation method that was suitable for oneself.

…

Not long after, Li Xiang returned to the palace.

However, he didn’t go to his palace. Instead, he went to the side palace.

This was the place where Yang Mi and the others dealt with the government affairs of the Kingdom of Dawn. Apart from them, there were hundreds of managers from various departments.

Li Xiang had been here a few times, but he didn’t stay for long. It was very busy here. Most people walked fast as if they couldn’t wait to use their qinggong to hurry on their way. It was obvious how busy this place was.

“Your Majesty!”

When many people saw Li Xiang coming, they immediately bowed their heads respectfully and then turned around to do their things.

In the middle of the side hall, there were five huge office tables. However, only three people were sitting at the back.

The three of them didn’t seem to be busy. Zhou Yutong was sipping her tea, Tong Qingya was reading a book, and Ning Xiaoyue was looking for something on the table, flipping through the things.

They looked up at the same time when they heard the commotion at the door.

“Li Xiang, what are you doing here?” Ning Xiaoyue was a little surprised. She knew that Li Xiang was very busy and rarely came here.

“Hmm, I happened to have something to do, so I came over to take a look! What were you looking for just now?”

“Oh, nothing big deal. I lost a document. I was just looking for it!”

Zhou Yutong put down her teacup, stood up, and walked over to Li Xiang’s side. She curiously asked, “Why didn’t Sister Mi and Sister Shu come back with you?”

“I placed some of the ancient books I brought back in the Scripture Library, so they stay there to read.”

Tong Qingya also walked over and asked, “What’s the matter? Why did you have to come here personally? Just tell us in the system channel and we’ll know.”

Li Xiang laughed and said, “I missed you ladies. I can’t favor one over the other or you all will blame me for not being romantic.”

“Bah! You’re acting like someone wants you!” Zhou Yutong’s face was slightly red, but her eyes were bright.

When Ning Xiaoyue heard this, she smiled so much that her eyes were curved. She directly hugged one of his arms and laughed, “At least you have a conscience! You don’t know how boring it is to deal with those government affairs every day. Since you’re here, you can have a chat with us!”

Tong Qingya shook her head, “I’m afraid that’s impossible. It’s not easy for Lord Li to come here. If there’s nothing major, I’m afraid it’s impossible for His Majesty to come here!”

“Cough, cough! I did come over for something, but my intention to meet you is very clear. I’m killing two birds with one stone!”

Ning Xiaoyue pouted and snorted, “I knew you wouldn’t be so kind! Tell us, what’s the matter?”

At this time, the other officials and staff in the hall had left.

Li Xiang sat down in the seat that Yang Mi had cleared out, while Zhou Yutong and the other two sat or stood in the vicinity. They appeared very casual.

“The war is coming, so I’m here to see if the equipment and resources have been sent to the various regions and if there are any difficulties. At the same time, I’d like to see what kind of new equipment I have and familiarize myself with them.”

Zhou Yutong had the deepest understanding of the new equipment. She replied, “We have the Void Divine Mirror, a Universal Printer, enough materials, and enough craftsmen. It’s not an exaggeration to say that the equipment we’ve forged is piled up like a mountain.”

“However, we’ve already started distributing equipment to various cities, and the city lords have all brought people to sign for them. We’ve already dispatched equipment to over a hundred cities. There are mainly weapons, armor, divine grade crossbows, battle bows, and arrows, as well as the newly-developed rune arrows, Magic Crystal Cannons, Demon Slaying Ballistae, bolts, potions, pills, and food.”

“The value of so many assets in terms of manpower and material resources is almost immeasurable, but they are all being sent over for nothing. Even if we have accumulated enough resources in the past, such consumption is still too much for us!”

Towards the end, Zhou Yutong’s tone could not help but be filled with worry and resentment.

Only those who truly regarded the Kingdom of Dawn as their home would think so.

Li Xiang took her hand and patted it, “You’re right. It’s a bit too much to provide war supplies to the cities for free. However, these cities would replenish the resources in the future. The situation is urgent, so we can only do this for now. If we ask them to exchange resources now, they couldn’t afford to do so either. Instead, it will affect the defense of the various cities.”

Zhou Yutong naturally understood this logic, but she had only said this to remind Li Xiang.
