“Oh, that’s not a problem. It’s impossible for mortals to cross this mountain range that’s thousands of meters high. If they try to get in, they’ll either get lost or be eaten by monsters. They won’t get to us,” Jiang Wanshan replied.

Upon careful consideration, Ye Liuyun realized that there was nothing wrong with it. She had been a cultivator for too long and had almost forgotten that the power of mortals was only so great.

After entering Donghai Prefecture, the two planned to find a place to settle down. If they wanted to find out the location of the Dongfang family, they would naturally have to go to a large place, as they might not know it in a small place.

Jiang Wanshan flew directly to Donghai City, the capital of Donghai Prefecture, hoping to find out clues about the Dongfang family there.

However, along the way, Ye Liuyun discovered that the mortal world of the Eastern Wilderness was also in chaos, with few peaceful areas. Half of the small towns he encountered on the road were engulfed in battle.

Because these areas had already fallen out of the control of the imperial court, the court reduced its forces and focused mainly on defending some important cities.

Small towns were abandoned and lacked protection, so all sorts of bandits and other unruly forces came out.

The Eastern Wilderness is the largest region outside of the Central Plains, and it is also the most prosperous region outside of the Central Plains, with a total of seven prefectures, while the Southern Ridge only has four.

These seven prefectures have a total of three princes and six dukes.

This time, the rebels were led by three princes: the King of Yue, the King of Qi, and the King of Wu.

Among them, the Prince of Qi has the greatest power, currently occupying half of the land in the Eastern Wilderness. As for the other princes, they are not capable enough to help the court or the princes rebel, so they obediently stay in their own fiefdoms and wait for the outcome.

The main reason is that their princes have virtually no chance of inheriting the throne, so why waste time? No matter which prince ascends the throne, they will still be princes.

Donghai Prefecture was the fiefdom of the Prince of Donghai, and his palace was located in Donghai City.

"I wonder how long it will take for this chaos in the mortal world to subside," Ye Liuyun murmured.

“That’s hard to say. The world will eventually divide and reunite. The Tang Kingdom has been passed down for thousands of years, and it’s time for a reshuffling. Besides, didn’t you say that something happened at the Nine Heavens Holy Land?” Jiang Wanshan said.

Indeed, it is quite normal in history for a large country to disintegrate into multiple smaller countries. A new country will be born in as little as a decade or so, or as long as a century or more.

Around 3 PM, Ye Liuyun and his group arrived above Donghai City, a very comfortable place by the sea.

This place faces the sea and is backed by mountains. Moreover, it is located in a corner of the mortal world of the Eastern Wilderness. As long as the Prince of Donghai does not make any other underhanded moves, he will be very comfortable and will not have any trouble coming his way.

A moment later, outside Donghai City.

Wearing a veil, Ye Liuyun and Jiang Wanshan landed in a deserted place.

Donghai City appears harmonious, but this harmony only applies within the city; the scene outside is quite different.

There are makeshift camps everywhere, densely packed with refugees who have been living here for some time. There are at least hundreds of thousands of refugees gathered outside.

They must have fled from other war-torn states, because it's safe here.

But now that they've fled here, the imperial court has no way to deal with them. This is no ordinary famine. Unless the Prince of Donghai takes pity on these refugees and provides relief, most of them will probably starve to death here.

In one particular area, there was a huge bonfire, and soldiers were carrying corpses into the fire to burn them.

There was no other way; with so many people and no suitable place to bury the dead, they had to be cremated on the spot to prevent an epidemic.

In fact, the Prince of Donghai did issue orders to provide relief to these people, but with so many people and the ongoing war, how could he possibly manage so many refugees?

The city appears calm, but in reality, food supplies are running low. Fortunately, the city has a port, allowing ships to purchase food from other prefectures. However, the food supply in the secular world comes from the people, and if the people are not stable, food will inevitably become a major problem sooner or later. Currently, prices and quantities in the Tang Kingdom are skyrocketing.

Therefore, the Prince of Donghai could only encourage these refugees to survive on their own, as he could not take care of so many people.

However, looking at the seaside, there are quite a few boats with people fishing on them. They can survive for a while by relying on the food from the sea, but many people are not used to eating seafood. Once they get sick, they can't recover on their own and then they just have to wait to die.

"This?" Ye Liuyun and Jiang Wanshan were at a loss for words when they saw this scene.

Ye Liuyun was a kind-hearted person, and seeing the scene outside the city made him instinctively feel uncomfortable.

Of course, it's normal to feel uncomfortable; even Jiang Wanshang felt a bit miserable.

None of these people begged from passersby, because they all knew that there wasn't much food left for them, and asking for money would be useless.

Ye Liuyun felt a little ashamed when he saw this, because the chaos of this secular world was inextricably linked to the Lin and Ye families.

Ye Liuyun fell into thought, and just as she was about to enter Donghai City, she suddenly remembered something.

"Eh? I've got it! I almost forgot, I still have this kind of pill." Ye Liuyun remembered a pill.

So he said to Jiang Wanshan.

"Elder Jiang, let's not go in yet, come with me."

Jiang Wanshan was puzzled, but he still followed Ye Liuyun back. They came to an area far away from the six camps.

"My lord, what are you going to do?" Jiang Wanshan asked.

"Let me show you a miracle." Ye Liuyun chuckled and took out a pill.

What kind of elixir is it? It's a white-grade elixir, a functional one. Its effect is to make a specified plant grow in a short period of time in an area, but it has limitations and cannot be used on herbs of too high a grade.

The method of use is simply to soak the pill in some of the plant's liquid.

However, while Ye Liuyun had the elixir, he didn't have any suitable plants. For these refugees, the most lacking thing right now was vegetables and fruits. They could get meat from the sea, but they couldn't get vegetables, fruits, rice, or noodles.

Even if Ye Liuyun could create a large field of wheat and rice, they wouldn't have the tools, so creating a large number of fruit trees and plants is currently the most suitable option.

"Hey? Elder Jiang, could you please look around the city for some fruit? Any kind of fruit will do, and bring over one type of fruit and vegetable from all over the place," Ye Liuyun gestured.

Although Jiang Wanshan didn't know what Ye Liuyun was going to do, he still closed his eyes and sent his powerful divine sense into Donghai City.

There must be all kinds of vegetables and fruits in Donghai City. Jiang Wanshan used his power to extract a large number of different kinds of vegetables and fruits from the city. These things disappeared as if they had vanished into thin air, and the stall owners and shopkeepers could not find them at all.

In no time, Ye Liuyun's front was piled high with all kinds of vegetables and fruits.

Ye Liuyun made a selection, then picked up a pineapple, scooped out a small piece, squeezed a drop of pineapple juice onto the pill.

This elixir is called the Plant Fast-Growth Elixir.

After the pill absorbed the liquid, Ye Liuyun forcefully threw it into the air, then activated the pill, which instantly exploded.

After the pill exploded, a large amount of golden powder fell from the sky. Plants quickly sprouted from the powder and grew at an extremely fast speed.

"Hey? What's this? Look everyone, plants are growing on the ground, and they're growing so fast! This, this is a pineapple!" someone exclaimed.

Pineapple is one of the most common fruits in the East China Sea, and most people recognize it.

"Hey, I have some here too! Look over there, there are some too! My God, pineapples are growing everywhere!" Pineapples were growing in large quantities in the area of ​​these refugee camps.

"It's a miracle! The gods are taking pity on us!" These ordinary people couldn't explain how the pineapples suddenly grew, so they could only attribute it to a miracle.

In reality, even a Nascent Soul cultivator couldn't accomplish this, leaving Jiang Wanshan completely bewildered.

He looked at Ye Liuyun with disbelief.

"This, my lord, you wouldn't happen to be an immortal descended from the celestial realm, would you?" Jiang Wanshan murmured.

Ye Liuyun was quite pleased with the shower of compliments.

"Hehe, maybe. What should we do next? Oh, I've got it, bananas." Ye Liuyun took out another plant growth pill and created a large number of rubber trees.

As for the refugee camp, it was already boiling over like water.

"Look, it's bananas! Banana trees have sprouted!" Some migrants who were picking pineapples quickly put down their pineapples and went to pick bananas after discovering that banana trees had grown.

There were so many, so many, that they even started growing inside Donghai City. Ye Liuyun only had ten pills, so he could only create ten kinds of edible fruits and vegetables.

But that's enough. If not, Ye Liuyun will find time to refine some more later.

This scene is just too outrageous and abstract, like it's fake.

Many people in the refugee camp had tears in their eyes as they looked at the sweet fruit in their hands.

"Thank God for the gift, thank God for His mercy."

Such a big thing happened in this area, the nobles in the city must have noticed it immediately. They sent people to check, and they were all dumbfounded. The area outside the city had been taken over by all kinds of fruit trees.

"Is this...is this a miracle?" those who came to investigate said, their eyes glazed over.

Chapter 436 Where the East Is (5000 words + 2900 monthly votes bonus chapter)

Ye Liuyun's methods can indeed be described as miraculous. The effects of this pill are quite significant. After she has resolved her worldly affairs, she will return to the Spirit Sword Sect to find a piece of land to cultivate a large number of low-grade medicinal herbs.

She lacks nothing but her own strength.

With this pill, Ye Liuyun will not lack medicinal materials, but he cannot use medicinal materials of green grade or above. If there were no restrictions on the grade of medicinal materials, wouldn't Ye Liuyun be truly omnipotent?

Of course, Ye Liuyun's current situation is actually quite omnipotent.

Ye Liuyun looked at the cheering refugees over there, then packed up the remaining vegetables and fruits and prepared to enter the city.

"Let's go, that's enough. This fruit should last them for a while," Ye Liuyun gestured.

Jiang Wanshan was still in a daze, but after hearing Ye Liuyun's call, he snapped out of it and caught up with Ye Liuyun.

"My lord, how did you do this? Is this the effect of a elixir? What kind of elixir did you use that could produce such a miraculous effect? ​​Can this elixir be used on medicinal herbs?" Jiang Wanshan asked a barrage of questions.

Ye Liuyun answered all the questions he could, and glossed over the ones he couldn't answer.

However, this kind of pill definitely cannot be sold to others on a large scale. It's fine for personal use, because if this pill were to circulate, it would definitely cause a great upheaval in the cultivation world.

If a single pill can produce a large number of white-grade medicinal herbs, wouldn't that be incredible?

Ye Liuyun smiled faintly as she looked at the cheering crowd around her; this was all she could do.

At this time, people from the city were also constantly running out of the city to pick vegetables and fruits, because it wasn't just the refugees who were suffering; the people in the city were not doing much better during this period either.

However, since all the people in the city had fled outside, Donghai City suddenly became deserted.

Ye Liuyun and Jiang Wanshan first went to find an inn. Apart from the innkeeper, everyone else in the inn had gone outside the city to see the miracle.

"Innkeeper, I'd like to stay at the inn." Jiang Wanshan called out to the innkeeper.

The innkeeper was an old man. After glancing at Jiang Wanshan and Ye Liuyun, he immediately stepped forward and greeted them with a smile.

"Oh, you two guests, would you like a superior room or a regular room? How many days will you be staying?" the innkeeper asked.

Jiang Wanshan immediately looked at Ye Liuyun.

"Three days," Ye Liuyun said.

"Yes, I understand. But this old man is getting on in years and has difficulty moving around. I heard there was a miracle outside the city, and all the staff went to see it. I'll have to trouble you to find your own room later," the innkeeper said somewhat apologetically.

That doesn't matter.

Soon Ye Liuyun and Jiang Wanshan booked two superior rooms. Jiang Wanshan took the key from the old man and led Ye Liuyun up to the third floor.

The inn that Ye Liuyun and his group found definitely has a sea view room, with windows facing the sea. Staying here will be very comfortable.

"Alright, Elder Jiang, go out and ask around to see if anyone knows anything about the Dongfang family. I'll take this opportunity to refine some pills," Ye Liuyun gestured.

Jiang Wanshan nodded, then left Ye Liuyun's room. Since the Dongfang family was a business family, it was most appropriate to ask a big merchant.

As for Ye Liuyun, she took out the Myriad Medicine Cauldron and began to refine a large number of plant growth-promoting pills. These pills are among the few that will not cause any unusual phenomena in the heavens and earth.

When Jiang Wanshan arrived on the street, he found that the street was full of people carrying fruit or pushing carts. He knew without looking that they had all gone outside to grab fruit.

Jiang Wanshan scanned the area with his divine sense and quickly spotted a rather magnificent shop with people inside. He then walked directly towards the shop.

Jiang Wanshan, as the Supreme Elder of the Tianheng Sect, had long held a high position and was clearly a person of great wealth and status. The place she entered was a high-end tailor shop.

The boss is a beautiful woman.

As soon as the beautiful woman saw Jiang Wanshan enter, she immediately walked in with a very professional smile.

"Oh, young master, welcome to my humble shop. Just by looking at your bearing, I can tell you're from a wealthy and noble family," the tailor shop owner said with a smile.

Jiang Wanshan smiled slightly.

"Well, madam, may I ask you something?" Jiang Wanshan asked with a smile.

As Jiang Wanshan spoke these words, he used his powerful divine sense to control the tailor shop owner, the beautiful woman, causing her to fall into a state of unconsciousness.

“Young master, please speak,” the beautiful woman murmured in reply.

"Do you know about the Dongfang family?" Jiang Wanshan asked directly.

The beautiful woman nodded blankly.

“Of course I know. The Dongfang family is the number one business family in our Eastern Wilderness. Every merchant and noble knows them.” The beautiful woman replied.

Jiang Wanshan laughed when he heard this; they found out so quickly.

"Then do you know where the Dongfang family is located?" Jiang Wanshan asked again.

But when asked this question, the beautiful woman shook her head.

"This? I don't know. I've heard that the location of the Dongfang family is very mysterious. A small merchant like me really doesn't know. But there must be someone in the city who knows," the beautiful woman replied.

Jiang Wanshan had no choice but to find other targets to inquire about the location of the Dongfang family.

Since ordinary merchants didn't know the exact location of the Dongfang family, he figured there was one person who definitely knew: the Prince of Donghai. So Jiang Wanshan didn't waste any more time and teleported directly to the Prince's residence.
