Capítulo 151: Preparation Complete
A few weeks had passed already.
Mo Xie had been busy making the trials and making a single addition to the project.
On the hill a few hundreds of meters away from the Vermillion Sonata Kingdom's castle, stood seven different pillars.
Mo Xie rested after making all of these, but when a person that barely gets exhausted doing chores rest, it only means one thing.
Mo Xie woke up, beside him is a beautiful lady with almost a half-naked body, only covering her private parts with the blanket.
He smiled seeing this beautiful person and couldn't help but kiss her on her forehead.
"Mmmn..." Shang Ting woke up from his action, a smile formed on her lips as she spoke: "Good morning."
"Good morning." Mo Xie smiled, as he stood up: "Want to eat first?"
Shang Ting tries to get up, but the pain her legs is suffering from right now is a little aching to her: "I`ll just rest for a few more hours."
Mo Xie nods his head and made his way out, the first thing he did is to find some maids: "Please prepare a set of a meal for my wife and give it to her."
"Yes." The maids bowed as they immediately took their leave to make breakfast.
Mo Xie made his way to the grand balcony and immediately called out: "Zhuding!"
"Yes, master!"
As soon as he called, Zhuding appeared from the skies, chewing something in his mouth.
"Let's go."
"Yes!"
Only a single day remains until the trial will start, and Mo Xie had finished making the trial gates, now, he's only busy doing the last part of his project.
As they landed, Zhuding couldn't help but look at the stage that's surrounded by the seven gates.
"Master, you've finished making these seven gates for only a week, but this stage seemed simple, like a normal garden piece. Why is it that you're taking so much time working with it?"
Mo Xie chuckles: "Oh, this is a gate that will be a two way portal for now."
"Two-way portal?" Zhuding asks, as a demonic beast, he has limited knowledge for skills and things.
Mo Xie continued tinkering at the portal and spoke: "Yes, it will connect two places and one can go through any of the two with only stepping on it."
"With this, they wouldn't need to travel back and forth from here to my Mo Family."
Zhuding frowns: "But master, they will travel for free? You've spent so much for this and yet, people can use it wantonly?"
Mo Xie shook his head: "I'm almost done modifying it, it will work automatically as it gathers Spiritual Energy from the surrounding, but you need to activate it first."
Mo Xie paused for a bit as he walks towards a pillar that has a basin: "This here is where they will need a key, or rather, they will need to place something valuable."
Mo Xie felt excited: "Anything that will be placed here will be transferred to a designated place that I wish for it to go."
Zhuding nods his head: "That's brilliant master!"
"But how much will they need to pay in order to activate this portal?"
Mo Xie calculated for a bit before saying: "Well, they'll need to offer at least a low-grade Spiritual Stone, with that, they will immediately activate it. but a single piece can only fifty people, with that, they need to pay continuously in order to use the teleportation portal."
Zhuding nods his head, amazed at how Mo Xie's economic mind can be flexible even with the event that had just happened recently: "Master truly is great."
Mo Xie then added: "But there will be plenty of people who won't be able to pay a single Spiritual Stone, and for that, I`ll be stationing some disciples here to collect money instead. They will need to at least pay 50 gold tael per person and that will increase my Mo Family's funds."
Zhuding pondered for a while before asking: "Then master, what will you do if the experts decided to pay in gold taels too?"
Mo Xie shook his head: "No, there definitely won't be any case like that."
"I'll arrange it so that only those that have no way of paying such sum will be the only ones to do so."
"Starting from a mid-rate clan and up, all of them are eligible to pay Spiritual Stones, and for lone cultivators, they will need to pay a single Spiritual Stone of low quality or pay 45,000 gold taels instead."
Zhuding nods his head but still asked: "Wouldn't that incur public outcry master?"
Mo Xie chuckles: "If they wanted to be treated like a King, they need to do it somewhere else, If they wish to do it in front of me, then that will be different."
Mo Xie's smile flickers, the glint of his eyes showed eerie black darkness, but after a while, he shook his head: "Haaa, I seriously can't get rid of these old habits that easily."
After saying that, Mo Xie continued and gone back to tinkering the formation of the stage.
Meanwhile, the sole living being that saw Mo Xie's eerie eyes, Zhuding was terrified, gulping down a mouth full of saliva and thought: 'Luckily, I am my master's pet, I definitely picked the right choice back then.'
But then, something suddenly struck him: "Master! After this thing is done, will I be useless?!"
Mo Xie hearing this looked at Zhuding weirdly: "I know your ancestor is stupid, but why do you have to follow him on this steps too?"
"Master?" Zhuding asked in bewilderment.
"I'm not only going to travel back and forth, but I also have other places I need to go to."
Zhuding's eyes glistened: "I understand master!"
Zhuding felt elated until Mo Xie spoke again.
"Well, I might choose an even faster mount in the future, who knows."
Hearing this, Zhuding's heart bled: "Master, please don't!"
Tears started to pour out of his eyes, Mo Xie only chuckles and never replied anymore.
This day, marked Zhuding's changed, he soared into the sky as he exercised tirelessly, stopping the gluttonous behavior by half.
Mo Xie specifically said those words to regress Zhuding's glutton behavior, he doesn't want to Zhuding to follow his ancestor's footsteps and be a slumbering demon, he has other plans for him.
After a while, Mo Xie stood up, he placed the stone pillars that are scattered around beside the stage, there are four pillars and a dome-like stone piece.
Mo Xie smiled seeing this finished product, he couldn't wait no more.
Mo Xie heaves a huge sigh: "Tomorrow is the day, I will leave this Kingdom and return to everyone."
He then heard a footstep coming towards him, he looked back and saw Shang Ting gracefully. He smiled at her and spoke: "I've just finished, should we go home for now?"
Shang Ting hearing this felt a storm coming and spoke shakenly: "That... how about we stroll to the market first? I think there might be something good, there's also an auction being held there, let's check first!"
Shang Ting tried all of the excuses she could think of as she walked to this place, she had just finally removed the aching of her body, but the first thing she heard as she met Mo Xie is to go back home, this sent made her involuntarily tremble.
"Oh, is that so? Sure." Mo Xie replied with a smile, he then kissed Shang Ting's soft lips and held her hand as the two of them walks back.
Shang Ting feeling her lover's lips thought; 'Maybe one more round wouldn't hurt...'
