Hearing Fang Hao’s words, the long blade at Fireblade’s waist unsheathed. Li Teng was even more scared to death, a stain spreading from his crotch. “Fang Hao, Fang Hao, don’t kill me, I beg you, I really won’t do it again,” he pleaded.

Dragging his muddy pants, he advanced a few steps: “I was wrong, please let me go this time, really, let me go.

Splat!

The next second.

A cold gleam flashed from Fireblade’s long blade, and Li Teng, who was begging for mercy, suddenly felt a pain at his neck.

Next, the world spun around, and he saw his body kneeling on the ground. His eyes filled with confusion, slowly rolling to one side.

Li Teng was dead, his head severed by Fireblade.

Looking at the severed head rolling to his feet, Fang Hao sighed slightly.

He didn’t want to kill people and didn’t want to use his strength to bully others.

But this was the third person he had killed.

Fang Hao opened the Book of Lords and, using the newly available photo function, took a picture of Li Teng’s severed head and corpse, and sent it directly into the channel.

There were no limitations on gore, and no pixels used for censorship.

The bright red blood, the lifeless severed head, the limp body, instantly silenced the channel.

Everyone shut their mouths.

For a moment, no one spoke.

“Li Teng is already dead, as for others who harbor hostility towards me, feel

free to challenge…”

Fang Hao’s words lingered in the channel for a long time.

It was quite a while before someone finally spoke again.

“Is that Li Teng’s head?”

“No shit, if it wasn’t Li Teng’s head, with his personality, he would’ve been

spouting threats by now.”

“Eh, Leader Fang Hao is a real boss.”

“Indeed.”

Li Teng’s deathly image remained displayed in the regional channel.

Those who had supported Li Teng and verbally attacked Fang Hao now kept their mouths shut.

Those who dared to speak in the channel began to address Fang Hao as boss, one after another.

Then, an untimely message appeared.

■’The Azure Dragon Mutual Aid Business Group is permanently disbanded.” A simple conclusion, but it represented the feelings of all the members of the Azure Dragon Business Group.

Li Teng’s lifeless appearance sent chills down the spines of members of the Azure Dragon Business Group, with beads of cold sweat appearing on their foreheads.

They were terrified that Fang Hao would find out the locations of their territories and directly rush over to kill them.

If the whole business group’s support in Soul Crystals couldn’t match up to Fang Hao alone, how could they possibly resist?

They wanted to apologise to Fang Hao in the channel, but were afraid of inadvertently revealing their own misdeeds.

If they didn’t say something, they would be overwhelmed with guilt, so after some discussion, they simply disbanded the just established Business Group as a form of apology.

Actually, everyone knew very well that the people who insulted Fang Hao were these business group members.

If the locations of everyone were revealed, Fang Hao might indeed wipe them

all out.

Fang Hao merely glanced at the situation and then paid it no further mind, directly closing the Book of Lords.

All those who had provoked him and insulted him in the channel had already been added to his blacklist.

As the territories expanded, everyone would eventually meet.

And when that time came, old and new scores would be settled.

“Sir, for you,” Fireblade picked up Li Teng’s Book of Lords and handed it to

Fang Hao.

As he received it, he got a notification.

[Book of Lords can be devoured.]

Then, Li Teng’s Book of Lords turned into stars and merged into Fang Hao’s Book of Lords.

[Devouring successful, your current Book of Lords level is 2, upgrade requirement 1/2.]

The first time he devoured a Book of Lords, his own Book of Lords had already been upgraded to level 2.

He received: Marching Speed +1%, Resource Gathering +2%, daily message limit in district channel +10 as rewards.

Today’s devouring accounted for 1/2 of the total upgrade requirement. Devouring one more, he could upgrade his Book of Lords to level 3, acquiring more benefits.

[You have obtained the decision-making authority over Li Teng’s territory.]

[Occupy/Abandon]

[Occupy: Will become your subsidiary territory and can continue to be developed.]

[Abandon: Will acquire 50%-80°/o of this territory’s resources, this territory

will be abandoned.]

The first time, due to lack of power, he chose to abandon, but now he had the capability and the strength to control this city.

Occupy!

Without any hesitation at all, Fang Hao directly chose to occupy.

[You have occupied a subsidiary territory and have the ownership of this territory and its two subsidiary villages.]

[You can set an ‘Acting Regent’ in your Book of Lords.]

After choosing to occupy, this city was automatically recognized as a subsidiary territory.

He obtained all the rights to the city.

To his surprise, Li Teng had indeed managed to make quite an impressive development.

The Lord’s Mansion and the city walls had all been built up to level 4, and he was earnestly hoarding materials for upgrading to level 5-

Upon opening the Book of Lords, he could see all the Blueprints that Li Teng had acquired.

Aside from what Fang Hao already owned, there were two new Blueprints. [Scythe Manufacturing Blueprint] [Agricultural Truck Manufacturing Blueprint] [Two-Handed Heavy Sword Manufacturing Blueprint (Green)] [Heavy Sword Infantry Training Ground (Human Clan)].

The first two were both agricultural blueprints.

The Agricultural Truck Blueprint wasn’t too different from the cart blueprint, the agricultural truck was just bigger and heavier.

The last two blueprints were, in Fang Hao’s view, rather mediocre. Especially the heavy sword infantry, their combat prowess was just so-so, thought they appeared quite imposing at first glance.

After one round of attacks from the Bone Dragon, they had nearly been annihilated.

The information about the subsidiary villages could also be seen.

In the storeroom of the subsidiary villages, he found a large amount of wheat and potatoes.

This was proof that these villages could produce a large amount of food. No wonder his expansion was so rapid. The issue of food and clothing was indeed a crucial factor.

“Sir, there are still many human farmers remaining in the territory, do you want us to kill all of them?” Fireblade walked in again to ask for Fang Hao’s instructions.

“How many are there?”

“More than 20.”

Fang Hao nodded, “Bring them in.”

“Yes, sir.”

In a little while, a group of peasants were brought in. Fang Hao counted 32 people, more than the 20 that Fireblade had mentioned.

The peasants were different from Fang Hao’s skeleton laborers.

The Human Clan accepted some external refugees. Once you accepted them, they would become the peasants of your territory.

Some of these people were recruited by Li Teng, and even more were refugees that he had taken in.

There were even a fair number of women among the refugees, or entire families with children.

“I am Fang Hao. Starting from today, I am the lord of this city. I will ask you some questions. If you answer well, you are safe. If you don’t, don’t blame me for not being kind,” he said.

There was still silence below. Everyone clumped together, no one daring to speak.

-Who knows what the area around the territory is like, tell me about it.” After a moment of silence, a man stepped forward fearfully from the crowd, kneeling on the ground and said, “Sir, I’m a vagabond from a western village. There are many human villages to the west..”
