[BL] Tamer of Another World

192 - Lex Red

"If you want to stay here, make sure to follow our laws and regulations. Otherwise, even if you are a part of Heavenly Flame Empire, prepare to be punished."

This is what Cole announced after several figures and places got attacked by Celia, signifying his full stance on maintaining the peace and order of his faction, specially when it comes on protection of its citizen mainly pertaining to the commoner. Of course, even the original cultivators populace were included since they were frail and weak to streams of Nascent Soul-Stage visitors.

And with the prime example of frozen human statues as well as his clear stance of being unafraid to any force since Cole even includes the most powerful faction in the Azure Territory, the arrogance of the foreign cultivators inside the Rising Phoenix Spirit Tree Nation has been minimized to the lowest level.

Unfortunately, this was only limited to physical abuse as they were throwing insults or any form of verbal abuse to the city's citizen.

For the meantime, with the lack of manpower, Cole can't fully stop the second form of abuse the citizen experience. Fortunately, commoners have innate fear to cultivators and they usually avoid them at all cost. Usually, only those with small business like inns, restaurants and shops face the verbal abuse from foreign cultivators.

It was only then Cole understand that his abrupt decision cause massive disturbance to his developing faction.

Left with no choice, Cole personally meet foreign cultivators and ask their purpose. If they were related to Heavenly Tribulation Assistance, he would meet them while those with irrelevant purpose were driven out of his territory for the meantime. He don't care whether they were dissatisfied or not.

Those with particular purpose were entertained by Cole.

In summary, he said that the Rising Phoenix Spirit Tree Nation would only accept one deal every month. Unless there is special circumstances, it was only every fourth week of the month he would assist a cultivator of external faction safely face their Heavenly Tribulation.

At that moment, after being driven out of the territory or frozen by Celia, only two faction managed to approach and discuss about the Heavenly Tribulation Assistance. The one is known as Greenbark Family, part of a noble family of Heavenly Flame Empire that specializes on growing spiritual herbs and crops. They were one of the main suppliers of raw materials for pill refining of Heavenly Flame Empire.

The other one is actually from his neighboring faction, the Red Tree Kingdom. Their most powerful kingdom guardian was just a peak Nascent Soul-Stage cultivator and they ask for breakthrough assistance for the now weakened old ancestor. Breaking through to Tier-5 is their only chance of extending the life of their kingdom guardian which would ensure the continuation of Red Tree Kingdom Royal Family.

Both the messenger of Greenbark Family and Red Tree Kingdom were at least amiable to Cole. They face and communicate with him like normal person usually do. It should be nothing but Cole believe that the reason they were currently amiable is because of the perfect example they definitely heard or even saw outside.

"Then, city lord... May I ask, what is the cost of your assistance?" The messenger from Greenbark Family ask after Cole confirm that he's willing to accept of the two family.

It takes Cole a moment before he answered as he consider what his territory currently need.

After of constant challenging of dungeon, Cole have finally bought the Basic Book of Formations and Array as well as the Basic Book of Alchemical Formula from the Dungeon Clear Store. As for the word 'Basic', it actually signify a collection of Formations, Array and Alchemical Formula from Normal-Rank to Sky-Rank, which actually has a great use on his starting faction.
