Chapter 1182: Chapter 711
Jiang Tang in his previous life had never been abroad. Despite having been to university, these foreign languages, with their native accents, were something he really hadn’t learned and couldn’t understand!
He could only see those mages’ mouths opening and closing, but judging from their mouth shapes and facial expressions, they seemed to be angry!
The magic used by those mages, that so-called magic tool, was actually somewhat similar to the magic wands they had seen before, which the Earl, now a Marquis, used!
However, that Marquis’s appearance was different from these mages, and his magic wand was much more powerful!
Moreover, they weren’t as evil as these mages. Who knows how the whole clan that moved to his base is doing these months?
Ye Tian, as a researcher for the country, had read even more books than Jiang Tang in his past life, speaking many languages. Even if these people spoke in dialects, he could mostly understand them!
These arrogant mages, with their few insults, called Easterners fools. And where exactly did their own brilliance lie?
They didn’t even understand arrays, unable to strike effectively, only seething with anger!
Jiang Tang was watching the excitement, unaware that the Cultivation World he had traveled to, those subordinates, those so-called girlfriends, and the pregnant girlfriend, were still in the North.
In the North, Lin Dandan looked at the days nearing the New Year, yearning day and night, living in that castle. Though she had no worries about food and drink, her heart felt empty!
Occasionally, other women came to visit, most of them being Jiang Tang’s girlfriends and confidantes!
When they came to see her, their eyes couldn’t help but glance at her already pregnant belly!
Their gazes were complex, as if she had done something wrong, as if she had done something abominable!
Jiang Tang had feelings only for her like this. She wasn’t necessarily the only one; maybe she was just this man’s woman!
All the adults became a man’s girlfriend and might become his woman!
Cultivators who found a Daoist couple didn’t necessarily have to perform a dual cultivation ceremony.
As long as the relatives saw them as exclusive, no one would think poorly of her being this man’s woman, being pregnant; it wouldn’t be something others looked down on!
For the healthy growth of her child, Lin Dandan felt bitterness in her heart but still appeared cheerful.
This day, Xuanyuan Mengting, Tang Yanran, and Lin Daiyu came together to visit Lin Dandan, as they had been on assignments together for a long time.
Fighting monsters every day was tiresome since the inner circle areas were teeming with endless pests; months had passed, yet batches of monsters kept appearing!
Who knows how these Western monsters grow?
Initially, those doing tasks only aimed at defeating monsters for justice. Later, they found the monster parts could become items they could sell or use for artifact refining!
But monster hunting became so frequent; months had passed, and there was so much loot that their storage bags couldn’t hold it all!
Moreover, when those hunting monsters in the inner area couldn’t fit more items in their storage bags, they distributed items to others on tasks!
Then those others would sell the items to the people on the outskirts or transport them to marketplaces nationwide!
There were so many items that the men and women tirelessly monster hunting found not only their bodies tired but their hearts exhausted too!
Lin Daiyu felt annoyed and realized her sister Lin Dandan, who had come to the North, seemingly hid out somewhere to be lazy!
Later, someone mentioned her sister was pregnant, sparking verbal attacks!
Though no one paid attention to Lin Daiyu!
Lin Daiyu found Xuanyuan Mengting and said she wanted to visit her sister.
Tang Yanran overheard their conversation and tagged along, while others wanted to join but were refused by Xuanyuan Mengting!
Xuanyuan Mengting visited Lin Dandan every few days over these months, calling it sisterly care, with others taking turns to look in as well!
Lin Dandan, safe in that castle with food and drink, after staying long needed new items delivered in!
Northern fresh vegetables were no good, but fresh meat indeed was!
After all, some of the monsters during their hunts were edible!
There may not be over a million people in this North, but more than 100,000 is possible, especially with so many cultivators. How had so many consumed resources over these months?
Of course, besides hunting monsters, merchants specially transported such resources for sale!
Some exchanged the monster corpses for food, with dedicated people doing just that!
Lin Dandan never stepped outside, and the village she lived in relied solely on deliveries for supplies!
Besides her belly around six or seven months along, Lin Dandan looked beautiful as ever, wearing a dress that was a vestment robe that adjusted to her body’s weight!
No one could see if her feet or hands were swollen!
Lin Dandan’s face bore a kind of maternal gentleness, perhaps a glow only seen in married women about to or already pregnant!
Xuanyuan Mengting felt a complex emotion seeing Lin Dandan, thinking back to the day she almost became Jiang Tang’s woman.
