Cyrus walked in within the mountain as the pathway was lit with red light-emitting many glowing red crystals' efflorescence out of the mountain walls. The Fire Leopard Queen was also walking by his side, playing a host for her terrifying guest.
"You guys were sitting over a treasure trove and never used it all this time? I don't know if you all were stupid or just greedy?" Cyrus commented coolly.
The Fire Leopard Queen respectfully replied in a wry tone, "Lordship knowledge is far suppressed ours. Besides, it's not like we don't want to use this place. It's just that the late King has been quite… eccentric and didn't allow anyone to step inside.
"I was the only one, but even my entry was restrictive around the outer section of this mountain cavern. Or his other children and partners were allowed to take shelter above the sacred mountain.
"Furthermore, I don't know even the late King knew the true purpose of these gems, and like me, he was only benefitting from the unique magic energy in this place."
Cyrus didn't find this explanation wrong, "I guess you are right. I was judging you by your world standards. You guys are living in such a world yet in a primitive environment, so it's only natural you have no awareness of your surroundings.
"These crystals are called Fire Crystal, and they contain pure fire element energy in them, which can be refined with little effort. If you guys had a proper fire cultivation art, then your clan should be already been evolved to a higher level, and you would not be just a small-time lord of a region of the Moonshine Forest."
The Fire Leopard Queen's eye contracted when she heard Cyrus's casual remark, but she didn't dare to doubt his word as she still vividly remembered the potent aura emitted from Cyrus when he came here.
"So, you want these Fire Crystals?" Eve exclaimed in realization.
However, Cyrus mysteriously smiled and didn't reply and followed Fire Leopard Queen toward the depth of the mountain.
___
At this moment, within the center area of the Lust Sword Region, a large migration was happening toward the depth of the goblin region.
Overseeing this large movement was Carla in her Temple Deacon Robes, and there were other humans behind her standing with all sorts of expressions and emotions; they had just reached this place.
One such human was a petite figure; she was none other than Matilda, Carla's closest friend.
Cyrus had given Carla full authority to summon anyone from the dimension in this place and start realizing his plans for the Lust Sword Region as quickly as possible.
Without wasting any time and full of high spirits, she got to work and drafted a plan to start the migration and built a fortress for the dynasty.
Matilda was very talented when it came to handling economy business, and she was her first choice, and she was comfortable with her around. She herself was a talented businesswoman.
Both of them had a long past together, and when Cyrus and Matilda selected Carla wasn't, she was absolutely stumped by this, and it was a huge blow to her confidence.
But Matilda's resolve to achieve the same position only grew, and she was focusing on cultivation diligently when she received summoned by her friend, and in the end, she couldn't reject it and came here.
"I can't believe I'm standing in another world. So surreal…" Matilda muttered as she felt the Qi around and looked at those hobgoblins.
Standing with the selected humans were also two councilmen, they were Trey Dylan and Wilder Quintin, and those men were also their loyal followers. Both of them were quite a spectacle about being summoned so abruptly.
Nevertheless, they had been both in charge of construction workloads and materials, so they were naturally going to be selected for this construction, and they also have experience working with goblins.
Now they had so many strong goblins, and the resources were also quite large, so it won't be a problem to build a medium size fortress. Furthermore, they were going to work directly under Cyrus's command, so it was nothing but good news for him.
Carla looked at her friend and sighed, "This is still nothing. You should've seen how he did subdue all of them in one fell swoop."
Her words made everyone's expression change, and they all felt awed by Cyrus's might and somewhat apprehensive of offending him by messing something up.
However, Carla's expression becomes stern again as she coldly says, "Enough with the side seen. I don't need to tell you what will happen if we make the Lust Emperor unhappy. So, let's device…"
Before she could even start, alarming bells started to sound, and everyone was startled because it might be a warning of an enemy attack.
Carla then quickly left the room with a cold expression as she couldn't let others attack Cyrus's territory. She was here for this exact reason, after all.
The other humans quickly followed suit as they were now also Qi cultivators and wanted to see who dared to mess with their lands and also wanted to please Cyrus or curry favor with his women.
The hobgoblin guards were all pale as they were in a fighting stance and were determined to protect their people until they were done with the migration.
Furthermore, they were far more confident since they had the support of the Lust Emperor, and his subjects were also present, so they knew nothing would happen to them.
Carla and other humans quickly reached the scene, and they spotted a big fire leopard surrounded by hundreds of hobgoblins.
When Carla sensed that fire leopard's aura, her eyes contorted because it was not less powerful than her even more so. But she wasn't going to back down.
However, before anyone could take drastic measures, the Fire Leopard spoke in an extremely respectful tone, leaving everyone dumbfounded.
"I'm here bearing the Imperial Edict of Lust Emperor for honorary Temple Deacon!"
