There was still a lot of noise around them. Yuan Wu endured it for a while before he could no longer bear it and shouted, "Shut up, all of you!"
The scene immediately quieted down. Everyone looked at him. Yuanwu coldly swept his gaze over everyone. Then he gritted his teeth and said, "I know a little about the general situation, but I am not too clear. Wait until I investigate it thoroughly."
Saying so, he picked up the Space Ring that Fu Qi had thrown to him before and carefully examined it.
Everyone stared at his reaction.
Yuan Wu's expression was first shocked, then joyful, and then sunk again. After a few changes, he regained his bitter expression.
He shook his hand and suddenly took out something that looked like an animal skin from the Space Ring and looked at it carefully. The moment he saw it, he let out a low cry.
The people from the Emperor Realm around him could not help but gather around him. When they saw what was on the animal skin, their expressions changed.
"What is this?"
"It looks like a palace."
"The scale is quite large."
"Huh, it seems that even the materials used for construction have specific requirements."
"What do you mean? Are we supposed to build a palace?"
"No way? Why would the Dragon race need to build a palace? I've never heard of the Dragon race having requirements in this area. "
"Incredible, incredible. If this palace is built, I'm afraid there won't be a second one in the entire Star Boundary."
"Azure Gold Purple Copper, Icy Soul Snow Jade, Heavenly Crystal Meteorite … Hiss, these are all materials used to refine Emperor Artifacts. This, this, this … are they really going to be used to build a palace? Isn't this a bit too extravagant? "
When they saw what was on the animal skin blueprint, the people from the Emperor Realm could not remain calm and their expressions changed.
Those who were gathered around and could not see the blueprint clearly had their eyes wide open. Their faces were full of disbelief as their faces twitched.
Azure Gold Purple Copper? Icy Soul Snow Jade? Heavenly Crystal Meteorite?
One after another, extremely impactful nouns reverberated like thunder in their ears, shocking them so much that they couldn't regain their senses.
Although they had been living on the Dragon Island and had never interacted with the outside world, it didn't mean that they didn't know what was good for them. There were alchemists and blacksmiths in the Half Dragon City, and there was no lack of cultivation materials on the Dragon Island. As long as they didn't go to the Dragon Palace, they could still move around freely in this small world.
Therefore, they knew very well what these materials represented.
These things were all extremely rare Artifact Refining materials, and any one of them was priceless and extremely difficult to find. If someone from the Emperor Realm could obtain some of these materials, it would be of great help to the improvement of their Emperor Artifacts.
But now, according to the voice in his ear, these precious and rare materials were actually used to build a palace?
Was it true? Everyone was suspicious, not daring to believe what they had just heard.
In an instant, everyone's eyes gathered on Yuanwu, wanting him to give an answer.
Yang Kai was also a little surprised. After all, if this was really the case, then this was too big of a deal. Even the sects of the Great Emperors couldn't do such a thing. Could the Dragon Island really do it?
Yuanwu had been observing the beast skin blueprint. After a while, he put it away and swept his gaze over everyone. His gloomy gaze paused on Yang Kai for a moment before he said loudly, "The Dragon race has given us a very difficult task!"
As soon as he said this, everyone exploded.
"It can't be?"
"Are we really going to build a palace?"
"And what materials are we going to use to build it?"
"Building a palace isn't a problem. We have so many people. No matter how big the palace is, we can definitely finish it in a month. But the key is the materials …"
"Yes, where are we going to find these materials? If we can't find the materials, how are we going to build the palace? The Dragon race is forcing us to our deaths! "
"Shh, what nonsense are you talking about? This is the Dragon Palace, be careful that the walls have ears."
The crowd began to discuss again.
Yuanwu's expression was extremely ugly. After a while, he continued to speak, "You are right. The Dragon race wants us to build a palace, and an extremely grand one at that. This King just took a look. If this palace is completed, it will occupy an area of over a hundred acres."
A wave of gasps sounded.
Over a hundred acres?
How big was this island? If it was over a hundred acres, it would occupy almost a tenth of this island. They had thought that they had enough people, but when they heard that it was over a hundred acres, they were all dumbfounded.
Was this still a fucking palace? This was a city, right?
Yuanwu pointed at the center of the island and said loudly, "The palace is over there. The Dragon race has basically been planned. We only need to act according to the plan."
Seeing that the crowd was about to become restless again, Yuanwu pressed down with his hand and said in a low voice, "This King knows what everyone is worried about. It is nothing more than the materials. The Dragon Island has prepared the materials." He raised the ring on his hand high up. "It is all in here."
When these words were said, everyone was stunned. Then, a wave of gasps sounded.
"So the Dragon race has already prepared. That really scared me to death."
"Yes, if we have to find those materials ourselves, I think everyone should just kill themselves."
"That's more like it. But I have long heard that the Dragon race is rich. Only now do I know that the rumors are true."
"Yes, so many materials are only used to build a palace. This is too exaggerated and wasteful. If they could give me some … …"
"Keep dreaming. Who dares to embezzle the things in the ring? If they really did that, they wouldn't even know when they died. "
"That's true. Heh heh, I was just saying."
Just as everyone relaxed, Yuanwu smiled coldly. "It is not that this seat is pouring cold water on everyone, but the materials in the ring are not enough for the temporary residence. There is still a large gap, and we need to mine it ourselves."
"What?" This time, everyone was shocked. In just a few words, the ups and downs of their mood were too frequent. Everyone was unable to accept it.
The materials in the ring were not enough?
They had to mine it themselves?
So many precious materials, where would they go to mine them? These materials were things that could only be encountered and not sought.
Yuanwu said, "No need to worry. There are a few spiritual islands in the Dragon Palace that produce these materials. So we only need to mine them."
Everyone's tense mood relaxed again. If that was the case, then it was fine. They were afraid that the Dragon race would ask them to find the materials themselves. These precious materials were rare outside. Where would they go to find them?
Now that they heard that the nearby spiritual islands produced them, they were not so worried.
Everyone could not help but criticize Yuanwu. They felt that this guy was not very kind. He spoke halfway and caused them to be shocked.
"Master Yuanwu, may I ask why the Dragon race wants us to build such a palace?"
Someone suddenly asked.
This was also the question in everyone's mind. They had coexisted with the Dragon race in this small world for countless years. There had never been a precedent for such a thing. In the past, although the Dragon race would occasionally go to Half Dragon City, most of them were to find dragon descendants to cultivate dragonblood flowers.
This time, they were suddenly asked to build a palace. It was strange. When did the Dragon race pay attention to this? And they had paid such a great price.
Just from the size of this palace and the materials needed, this was definitely not for an ordinary Dragon race to live in. Perhaps it was the palace of a few great elders of the Dragon race.
This conjecture made people uneasy. They knew that if this matter was messed up, the five hundred people here would not survive.
"This king also wants to know," Yuanwu said angrily. Yuanwu replied exasperatedly. He had been in a bad mood today. First, he had been beaten and lost face. Then, he had received such a difficult task. He had been suppressing his anger, and now, he had found a reason to vent it all at once.
The person who asked the question was a third-layer Di Realm human. But after being scolded by Yuanwu, he only gave an embarrassed grunt and did not dare to say anything more.
There was nothing to be done. In this small world, even if his cultivation was higher than Yuanwu's, he did not dare to be his enemy.
Not to mention the humans and yao, all the dragon descendants acted according to his whims. Now, he was using the Dragon race's feathers as a command arrow. There was no benefit in provoking him.
Yuanwu's gloomy gaze swept around. He took a deep breath and said, "The situation is very serious. This King will not say anything more. I'm sure everyone knows that for a palace like this, with only five hundred of us, to complete it within a month, we will have to do our best, and even … put our lives on the line."
These words were not false.
If it was just a palace that covered an area of a hundred acres, it wouldn't be a problem for the five hundred people present. There were hundreds of Emperor Realm Masters here, so how difficult could it be to build a palace?
The key was that the Dragon race had specified the materials.
It had to be known that these materials were all precious Emperor level materials. Each of these materials was incomparably strong. If one wanted to mine these materials and grind them into a specific shape, it would require a lot of manpower and resources.
Not to mention anything else, just that piece of green gold and purple copper, which was the size of a palm, would take half a day to melt.
Everyone recognized the difficulty of this task. They all closed their mouths and had solemn expressions.
Only Yang Kai was calm. He looked around and did not care about this matter at all.
He had come to Dragon Island to find Zhu Qing, not to be a laborer. As long as he could find a chance to meet Zhu Qing, he did not care about anything else.
A gaze suddenly came from the side. Yang Kai looked over and saw the guy with the protruding mouth and monkey-like cheeks smiling at him.
When their eyes met, this person nodded lightly.
Yang Kai had a good impression of him. Just now, he had come to help when he had a conflict with Yuanwu. It could be seen that he was a chivalrous person. Regardless of whether Yang Kai needed it or not, he had to accept this favor.
So seeing him gesture at him, Yang Kai also smiled at him. It was a kind of goodwill transmission.
On the other side, Yuanwu accidentally discovered Yang Kai's small action and immediately became angry.
He was worried and worried about what would happen in a month. Yang Kai had a calm expression and was at ease. Why?
Why?
