Unrivaled Miracle Doctor: The God-Defying Demonic Consort novel Chapter 714

Chapter 714: Chapter 149: Heaven Truly Helps Me! (Three Updates)

"What if someone launches a surprise attack on the spirit stone mine and we need reinforcements?" Mu Qingge directly questioned.

The Giant Spirit Commander was taken aback, rendered speechless.

It seemed he hadn’t considered this. After a moment, he forced himself to say, "Who would dare act recklessly on our Floating Guest’s territory?"

Mu Qingge shook her head with a slight smile, saying nothing.

When she arrived, she already knew that to avoid conflicts, the three factions previously each dispatched a team to guard the mine, and the rest would have two teams resting in the city. Every half-month, they’d rotate.

This arrangement could be considered quite reasonable.

Mu Qingge didn’t plan to suggest any changes; it was only when she saw the path leading into the Yu Yan Mountain mine filled with brambles and weeds, rendering it barely a path, that she found it problematic.

The mined spirit stones could be transported out using Sumeru Containers, but what about people? If danger arose in the mine, and the city-stationed team needed to urgently assist, this path would become the first obstacle, an accomplice to the enemy.

Digging a road from the mine to outside the mountain could save a lot of time, unexpected happenings, and loss.

In this regard, the other three likely hadn’t thought deeply, or perhaps they were confident enough to believe no one would dare target the Yu Yan Mountain mine.

Mu Qingge didn’t press further, only glancing at Mo Yang, who nodded almost imperceptibly, indicating he understood her meaning.

Change takes time; matters concerning Dragon Teeth are mainly handled by Mo Yang, who will also deal with these three big factions. So the issues Mu Qingge raised today, Mo Yang just needed to remember to bring them up when an opportunity arose.

Travelling on such a path took a whole day to reach near the mine.

Mu Qingge sighed again, thinking that if there were a good road, at least two-thirds of the time could be saved!

"City Lord Mu, here is the Yu Yan Mountain mine." Commander Xuan Yue pointed to a giant hole in the mountainside, speaking to Mu Qingge.

The hole was deep, appearing as pure darkness from the outside. Near the entrance, many miners were busily moving the excavated spirit stones in and out.

The teams from the three Floating Guests were closely watching the miners, preventing them from secretly hiding spirit stones.

"Each time the spirit stones are mined, they’ll be weighed inside the cave and once again outside. If there’s a weight discrepancy, the entire shift of miners will be implicated and punished," the Floating Guest Steward explained.

Mu Qingge raised an eyebrow, acknowledging the strict management indeed.

"Move quickly!" came a shout from afar, drawing everyone’s attention.

They saw a Floating Guest adorned with a Bailian emblem raising a long whip, harshly flogging a miner who had fallen.

The whip landed on the miner’s back, tearing the skin and drawing blood. Yet, the miner dared not utter a complaint, trembling as he got up and quickly moved away.

Mu Qingge’s eyes briefly flashed as she asked, "Where do these miners come from?"

The Floating Guest Steward replied, "Oh, most are citizens from Tianping City. To make a living, they come here to be miners. Some are captives from the three major Floating Guest teams, sent here for labor. The one whipped just now is a Bailian captive."

"Captives?" Mu Qingge was somewhat curious and glanced at Mo Yang. How come Dragon Tooth Guards never mentioned captives?

Mo Yang immediately explained, "In the Floating Guests, some missions are to eradicate mountain bandits and marauders. These malicious individuals, once captured, are generally shackled and used as labor or slaves within the Floating Guest teams."

Mu Qingge nodded to show her understanding.

She also understood why Dragon Teeth had no captives. Because Dragon Teeth seldom took on such missions, and even if they did, they’d kill everyone, leaving no survivors, so naturally, there were no captives.

Regarding the miners, Mu Qingge refrained from offering opinions, thinking it was each person’s choice to make and bear.

After roughly touring outside and taking a glance inside the mine, Mu Qingge understood the status of the spirit stone mine.

Previously, Bai Xi had already told her quite a bit, and now her visit was just a formality.

"City Lord Mu, over there is our camp," Bailian’s Commander pointed at the structures near the mine, built with local materials, speaking to Mu Qingge.

One building was newer, unguarded outside, and had no flags on the walls, seemingly prepared for Dragon Teeth.

Indeed, the Floating Guest Steward quickly walked to the front of the building and bowed to Mu Qingge and Mo Yang, saying, "City Lord Mu, Commander Mo, this is the newly constructed camp for Dragon Teeth. Its layout is the same as the other three, with room sizes and interior setups all identical."

Mo Yang looked at Mu Qingge, seemingly leaving everything for her decision.

Mu Qingge tilted her chin, saying, "Let’s go inside and take a look." As soon as she spoke, the Dragon Tooth Guards behind her immediately proceeded into the camp.

The remaining two stood at the door like iron spears, upright and vertical.

The others followed Jing Hai inside for a quick inspection.

Their movements seemed to be honed through countless trainings. The professional demeanor of the Dragon Tooth Guards left Xuan Yue, Bailian, the Giant Spirit Commanders, and the Floating Guest Steward all astounded.

By the time they entered with Mu Qingge, the Dragon Tooth Guards, who had gone ahead, were already stationed at key points within the camp.

Jing Hai returned to Mu Qingge and reported, "Instructor, we’ve completed the inspection. However, there’s no place for daily training."

Mu Qingge gave an almost imperceptible nod and looked at the Floating Guest Steward. The latter understood and cautiously asked, "Uh, may I know what requirements Dragon Teeth have for this daily training ground?"

Meanwhile, thoughts arose in his heart.

The Floating Guests watching over the mine needed only to report for duty daily, so why was training necessary?

Not only was he puzzled, but even the other three leaders wore confused expressions. As Floating Guests, aside from mission tasks, they indulged in leisure and pleasure, self-discipline in cultivation was individual, but training grounds weren’t established even in their respective cities.

"Jing Hai will inform you," Mu Qingge said to the steward.

With that, she walked into the building, and Mo Yang followed closely behind.

Commander Xuan Yue and the others didn’t immediately follow. He looked at Mu Qingge’s back thoughtfully, "It seems with Dragon Teeth moving in, we’ll learn how they usually operate."

The Giant Spirit Commander snorted indifferently, "I see it as pretentious."

That night, Mu Qingge didn’t return to Tianping City but stayed directly in Yu Yan Mountain. The other three commanders, unable to endure the mountain solitude and lacking a beauty companion like Mu Qingge, returned to Tianping City before dark.

"When you return to Luoxing City, deploy some Dragon Hidden Army here for garrison duty. Divide them into three teams, each having one Dragon Teeth," Mu Qingge instructed, tapping her fingers on the table to Mo Yang.

"Yes, Little Lord," Mo Yang replied.
