Quick Transmigration: Leisure

A dilemma.

For Miss Du's sake, the Du family gritted their teeth and made her give birth to the child.

Furthermore, they mobilized all the resources of the family to nourish the person with medicine.

Miss Du's life has been saved.

However, their family did not directly define the city lord's future as something filthy and unbearable.

Instead, we should strive to teach them well, recognizing that children are blank slates and that it is the responsibility of everyone to guide their growth.

The Du family ultimately succeeded; they raised a genius city lord to be the current lord of Anle City.

This spirit of continuous life was passed on to countless half-demons.

As the storyteller finished speaking, the half-demon in the audience burst into tears.

Some of them even unconsciously revealed their true forms.

Xia Youmi glanced towards the entrance of the teahouse and indeed saw several neat rows of blue figures. They must be some kind of guard organization from the City Lord's Mansion, specifically tasked with protecting half-demons from the prying eyes of ordinary humans in places where there was a risk of exposure.

Minimize collisions and friction between the two parties.

Xia Youmi greatly admired Miss Du. Faced with the choice of dying if she didn't give birth, or being weak for life if she did, many people would choose suicide.

But it is precisely because abandoning and giving up is easy, while changing and resisting relentlessly is extremely difficult, that the decisions made by countless pioneers at historical moments are all the more memorable.

later,

The city lord was raised as a normal human being.

When the story reached a stage familiar to everyone, the city lord was shocked by the boundaries and gulfs between species.

Having been educated and matured, he was no longer afraid of the shackles imposed on him by those around him, and began to carry on his mother's will and fight back.

He performed meritorious service and used it to eliminate his own father, who had been imprisoned for several years.

Then, by taking advantage of the human emperor's showmanship, coupled with the infighting among the demon cultivators, they created a situation where...

A rift was torn between the two sides.

All races eventually became accustomed to the half-demons engaging in trade in various regions.

He then retreated into the shadows and seized Anle City, which was most advantageous to the demon cultivators.

They gathered countless half-demons and firmly controlled this place, allowing them to catch their breath.

in addition,

Many people who know a little about the City Lord's Mansion are aware of this.

They have been trying to improve the cultivation level of half-demons, even though their innate conditions are not as good as those of humans and demons.

But they still managed to come up with quite a few solutions.

At the very least, the Blue Robe Guards are the best proof. They possess the unity and cooperation of humans, as well as the will and strength of the demon race.

What's most touching is that the city lord treated his mother extremely well.

This was a consensus everyone shared before hearing Miss Du's story.

Miss Du is also the longest-lived and healthiest person to date who, as a weak person, gave birth to a half-demon.

The city lord here has put in just as much effort as the Du family.

Thus, he almost knelt down and begged, reopening his wounds in the hope that someone would join the effort to save his mother.

Who among those present was not moved?

Immediately, everyone wanted to sign up, including Fox You, whose eyes were red and who was sniffing at Xia Youmi, seemingly waiting for her to express her opinion.

Xia Youmi nodded slightly.

I hope Hu You can understand that I'm worried about delaying the service.

They still invited her to go with them, and Xia Youmi agreed.

"Ahem... Gentlemen, I know your concerns, but this journey is fraught with danger. The City Lord's Mansion has sent someone to explain the risks and benefits to you all, and you must think carefully before proceeding," the storyteller sighed.

Gradually, the crowd quieted down.

They all adopted an attitude of listening attentively.

"The destination for this trip is expected to be Wuxiang Mountain..."

"Wow—"

"Mount Wuxiang is a place from which there is no return."

"Even a demon cultivator who has cultivated for a hundred years might not be able to do that."

Xia Youmi took out a map and asked the knowledgeable Hu You to point out the approximate location.

then,

“You haven’t even drawn that spot in your drawing,” Fox said, pointing to a certain edge.

"Um... I don't know." Xia Youmi originally planned to cultivate in the depths. She knew that the mountains were endless and she couldn't possibly explore them all, so she decided to define a specific area and act according to circumstances.

My initial reluctance to get involved changed after hearing Miss Du's story.

But after learning about Wuxiang Mountain, the inexplicable heartbeat and buzzing in her head made her determined to explore it.

A mysterious intuition told her that rather than finding a hanging coffin to sleep in until she was three hundred years old, she felt it was more right to join this trip and enter Wuxiang Mountain.

Regarding that group of ordinary people...

The storyteller did not explain it clearly.

It is said that those chosen will receive special training at the city lord's mansion.

The positions that were released were mainly for the logistics team.

This includes cooks, recorders, people who need to return from time to time to report, doctors, and people with strong willpower.

Besides having certain skills, physical fitness is the most crucial factor.

According to estimates, it will take a full three months to reach Wuxiang Mountain, barring any unforeseen circumstances.

Not to mention bringing along ordinary people, who might even be in very poor health.

The miasma forests that would appear from time to time at that time could wipe out all these people.

Fortunately,

The demon cultivators were relieved only after the city lord gave a clear promise that he could solve the problem of traveling in the miasma forest.

After leaving the teahouse,

Xia Youmi and Hu You walked down the street, discussing which positions they could apply for.

"I think temperament is the key," Xia Youmi comforted Hu You, who was suddenly feeling inferior because of his lack of fighting skills.

"Really? I'm worried I'll hold them back."

"If I were the captain, I would definitely want you in the team to mediate." Xia Youmi could foresee the conflicts between the races.

Therefore, a social butterfly like Fox is indispensable.

Otherwise, why bother selecting recorders and people with strong willpower? Can't the guards handle both?

A position is created only if it is useful.

Encouraged, Hu You cheered up and dragged Xia Youmi directly to the bulletin board to register.

Xia Youmi filled in "human" as her identity.

Whether they believe it or not is up to them to decide.

The position, naturally, is that of a doctor. It shouldn't be more tiring than that of a cook or a messenger, right?

Fox's position is complicated.

It felt it was lacking in everything, so Xia Youmi joked, "How about becoming my assistant?"

Anyway, there's a small note below the doctor's name that allows them to bring apprentices.

But in the end, Fox firmly rejected her.

It doesn't want to do anything that's even less certain.

The handwriting was also inadequate, so in the end, it chose the most illegible duty, which was the job of mental fortitude.

......

Three days later, they were finally notified to go for the selection.

They were told that if selected, they would immediately receive a subsidy of one thousand taels of silver.

After settling everyone in, Xia Youmi no longer needs to worry about where Xiaodouzi will go.

After passing the five tests of temperament, martial prowess, cooperation, morality, and survival, they met again in the council hall arranged by the city lord.

The two understood each other without saying a word and did not interact.

As early as after the approval, Xia Youmi had already used the thousand taels of silver to rent a house with the help of Hu You.

We entrusted Xiaodouzi to a professional caregiver and paid for at least a year's worth of care.

He spent the rest of his time cultivating in the coffin, waiting for the day the city lord would personally receive him.

The council chamber was very spacious and well-designed, but it lacked excessive luxury and gaudiness; instead, it was clean and tidy.

There are two rows of seats, ten on each side.

Presumably, those recruited through open recruitment are sitting to the side.

On the other side stood the mysterious human team.

The blue-robed guards were already standing behind the seats, motionless and imposing.
