The land that Mu Ningxue had bought was located to the north of Feiniao City. It was a very special piece of land. It was a flat piece of land separated by two long and narrow mountain ranges. It was slightly higher than Feiniao City.
The mountain range to the west was called Feiyue Mountain. It was an excellent mountain range barrier, keeping the demon beasts of the Nanling Mountains outside the mountain range. Most of the demon beasts of the Nanling Mountains would not cross the mountain range to attack humans.
The mountain range to the east was called the Shuangyang Mountain. It was made up of two huge mountains. Between the two mountains was a river that connected the Yueyang Land, allowing it to reach the ocean!
If they went north, they would pass through Hangzhou and reach the Magic City, Shanghai.
If they went south, they would be very close to Feiniao City. It was less than ten kilometers away.
Mu Ningxue purposely brought Mofan to a height of five thousand meters, so he could observe the entire Yueyang Land. Mofan could not help but admire Mu Ningxue's foresight. Not only was the land flat and spacious, it also had perfect barriers to the left and right. If they invested a lot of money into it, it could easily develop into a safe town!
As a matter of fact, the resources of a city were the most important. It was more meaningful if there were resources that could be mined. However, Mu Ningxue and Mu Zhuoyun, who had experienced the Calamity of Bo City, had placed safety first. They had to admit that the land was a lot safer than Bo City. As for the resources that could be mined, the land was only separated from the ocean by a mountain range. On top of that, the land was quite fertile. Even though it was not rich in resources, it was not barren, either.
"If it weren't for the fact that this place isn't within the safe zone, Lin Junxian might have even expanded his Feiniao City here!" Mofan exclaimed, despite being an outsider to the area.
The land was indeed great, but the biggest problem was that it would take a lot of effort to clean it up. It was unlikely that they would be able to build a town here without the help of the military.
"Once we've finished cleaning up this place, we should be able to set up a sentry post at Feiyue Mountain. After that, we'll widen and deepen the river channel of Shuangyang Mountain, turning it into a canal that connects to the ocean. Very soon, this place will surpass Bo City!!" Mu Zhuoyun was extremely satisfied with this piece of land.
After being down for so many years, Ge Zhuoyun still could not forget about this city. Bo City was destroyed, and this scar could only be healed by a new city. Most importantly, this city would belong to them, and they would not need to be ordered around by the Mu Family, and they would not need to care about their attitude.
"I've chatted with Lin Jun. He said that as long as we include this piece of land in the safe zone, he's willing to work with us. All the buildings here will be contracted by him, and he's even offering a great discount. I didn't expect you guys to meet such a good businessman during your training." Mu Zhuoyun had a smile on his face. He saw hope when he looked at the place. Even if he had to start all over again, he would no longer have to live in the dark.
Mo Fan was clueless about the rise of a city, but with Mu Zhuoyun around, it would not be too much of a problem to build a town here. After all, he was the City Lord of Bo City in the past. As for whether it could develop into a city in the future, it was not Mo Fan's concern. It was not easy to build a city. Even though the eastern part of the country was a lot simpler than the western part, it still needed time to settle down …

Daqin Mountain Rockery
Li Qing was sitting on a pair of plump thighs. Her waist was twisting like a snake as she rubbed herself against Pan Di's chest, causing Pan Di to feel extremely infuriated.
Unfortunately, as Pan Di was about to pounce on her like a hungry wolf, a faint glow suddenly appeared in the dark night sky in the distance.
The glow was faint and beautiful in the dark night, like a thin aurora covering the land under the sky. The perfect blue-brown arc was filled with a special sense of mystery.
"What … what's that?" Li Qing was startled. She stared into the distance with a blank face.
"It … it looks like a protective barrier. How is this possible? How could there be such a huge protective barrier!?" Pan Di was a professional. He immediately recognized the glow as the protective barrier of a city!
Why would a protective barrier appear in a desolate land like that? Its level was comparable to the City Pistil of Feiniao City. Who would be so bold as to activate such a barrier!?
"That's the direction of the Yueyang Land. My Heavens, did they use the Earth Pistil to clean up the place? Is the army planning to turn it into a new safe zone?" Li Qing's mouth dropped wide open as she came to a realization.
Apart from the army, it was unlikely that any other faction would do something so shocking.
"It's not the army, I didn't receive any documents. I heard that Mu Ningxue bought the land a while ago," Pan Di said.
"She bought it, and now there's a protective barrier around it. Is she planning to claim the land as her clan's territory?"
"It's a desolate land. It's going to take a lot of work to clean it up. Even a renowned clan might not be able to afford it, so I didn't ask about the purchase, but … but … how could they possibly have the Earth Pistil? That's impossible!" Pan Di was dumbfounded.
He had already promised the Li Clan that he would not let Mu Ningxue get a single piece of land. He had accepted all the benefits, yet the Guardian Barrier left Senior Member Pan dumbfounded!
Once the protective barrier was established, every demon creature in the land would be marked by the glow of the barrier. Not a single one of them would be able to escape, including the Insects of Darkness hiding under the ground …
As a result, the cleanup was fairly simple. They just had to eliminate all the dangerous demon creatures that were marked by the Realm of Protection. The military, the local Magic Associations, the Hunter Union, and the local government would then certify that the Lesser Safe Zone was a safe zone!
The cleanup of the Earth Pistil was the most authoritative proof. Even the headquarters of the Magic Association had no right to question a land that had been cleansed by the barrier. As such, Councilman Pan's attempt to make things difficult for Mu Ningxue was completely ineffective!
Most terrifyingly, many people had heard about the Yueyang Land. Many renowned clans and the local government were interested in it, but the cleanup had been a huge hindrance to them, so they had to put it on hold for a long time.
Everyone knew that the land had a lot of potential, yet it had now become Mu Ningxue's private territory. It was a lot better and bigger than the land that Pan Di had rejected!
"Yes, yes, I'll head over right now. Please don't be angry, I'll get to the bottom of it," Li Qing soon received a scolding from the Mu Clan.
The Dali Clan was causing trouble for Mu Ningxue, yet the people of the Mu Clan were notified that Mu Ningxue had successfully claimed her private territory … Li Qing's face darkened after being scolded.
Li Qing was not in the mood to flirt with Councilman Pan. She quickly left the place.
If he could find a way to make a fuss with the government, he might have a chance to stop Mu Ningxue …
"Damn it, that b * * ch dares to ignore me!?" Councilman Pan's face darkened when he saw Li Qing leaving without saying goodbye.

Mofan did not have to worry about the authorization of the territory. He was clueless about it, and had already done what he was supposed to do.
Mofan was quite satisfied with the name of the new territory. It was the result of him and Mu Ningxue's hard work. He believed it would make the headlines the next day with the help of the Realm of Protection. Even though it was not enough to attract many Mages to Fanxue Mountain, it was enough to make the place famous.
Mu Ningxue's reputation was something that the Mu Clan did not want to see. Everyone knew the Mu Clan had given up on Mu Ningxue during the World College Tournament, but now Mu Ningxue had set up her own territory, and it was such a huge uproar. It was like a huge slap to the Mu Clan's face! It was burning, and it was also very painful!
Soon, the Mu Clan held a small meeting.
Mu Ningxue's departure did not affect the Mu Clan's influence, but it was a great blow to their reputation. Many people knew Mu Ningxue had been kicked out before she joined the national team, and that Mu Ningxue had won the World College Tournament with her own strength. The Mu Clan's actions had disappointed many Mages who were planning to join them. If Mu Ningxue decided to set up her own territory, it would bring the conflict to the public's attention. More people would start to doubt the Mu Clan when they discussed the matter.
The doubts were not enough to inflict any damage to the Mu Clan, but many Mages who were hesitating to join a renowned clan or if they were willing to do business with the Mu Clan easily switched their allegiance to the Mu Clan. After all, there were a few other renowned clans that were not bad at all!
…
"Mu Ningxue, who ran away from the Mu Clan, went against the Mu Clan and established Fanxue Mountain on her own!"
"Mu Ningxue, who contributed greatly to the national team during the World College Tournament, is going to construct a new city. She's going to activate a city-level barrier to light up the sky above Feiniao City!"
"Everyone knows that the Mu Clan is oppressing Mu Ningxue. They are so cruel to their own people, let alone those who don't share the same surname!"
As Mu Ningxue thought, the shocking news immediately attracted a lot of attention from the media. Mu Ningxue was still cleaning up the mountain. She did not contact the media when she established Fanxue Mountain, but the news itself was huge. Not only did the media swarm over like bees to honey, the people on the internet and among the Mages were speculating about the news too.
Mu Ningxue soon finished cleaning up the mountain. Everything was a lot simpler with the help of the barrier. Mo Fan finally understood why Shi Qianshou was so crazy about the Earth Pistil. Obtaining the Earth Pistil was equivalent to controlling an entire city!
…
"Thank you, Mo Fan." Mu Ningxue looked at the land covered by the barrier. The beautiful sky was soothing and filled with anticipation.
"If you really want to thank me, you can give yourself to me. You should know that I've liked you for a long time," Mo Fan smiled.
He did not expect to be able to do so much for Mu Ningxue. A city, even though it was just a desolate land overgrown with weeds … It was a great feeling to be able to see Mu Ningxue's expression. She had a smile on her face, just like she used to.
