Genshin Impact: Demon God of Shura

"Return to Xiuli? Blue Sky, can you share your thoughts?"

"Old friend, could you please explain?"

Gui Zhong and Morax couldn't help but ask about the title given by Lan Tian.

"Ahem... The character 'Gui' is taken from Gui Zhong's name, 'Xiu' is taken from my demon god name, the God of Asura, and 'Li' is taken from your name, Zhong Li."

Blue Sky offered its own explanation.

"This title is fine, but why don't you use your own name to form the title, Lantian?"

Gui Zhong raised a question, and Morax also looked at the blue sky with a face full of curiosity.

"If I were to be given a name, it would be Gui Lanli or Gui Tianli, which would give people the feeling that I might ascend to heaven at any moment. It just sounds weird."

After saying that, Lan Tian spread his hands with a helpless expression.

Upon hearing this, Gui Zhong and Morax nodded in agreement.

"Since no one has any objections, let's talk to the people tomorrow and announce the name of our territory."

"It's impossible."

“Great! I think Lan Tian is the most suitable person to be the speaker.”

Gui Zhong and Morax both expressed their agreement.

the next day.

With the people of Blue Sky, Morax, and Gui Zhong as witnesses, Blue Sky solemnly announced the establishment of Gui Xiu Li, and many of his people cheered with joy.

For the next three days, the entire Guixiuli region was filled with cheers and applause.

"Isn't it lively?"

Lan Tian stood on a mountain peak in Guixiuli and sighed.

"That's certainly how it should be."

"Yes, even I, Gui Xiuli's original master, rarely see them so happy."

Morax and Gui Zhong, who were standing nearby, chimed in.

All three of them had faint smiles on their faces at that moment.

"Hehe, people are happy as they are, but they still need to address the security issues of their territory."

Lan Tian's smile faded, and he spoke with a slightly serious expression.

"Yes, Guixiu is located in an open area, which makes it particularly easy to attract the attention of surrounding demons, and may even attract the covetousness of other demon gods."

Morax analyzed.

"They not only covet Guixiuli, but also its fertile land. Before you came here, many demons in the vicinity were eager to invade my territory, but the commotion you caused during your recent sparring has greatly deterred them."

After saying this, Gui Zhong looked at Lan Tian and Morax with gratitude on his face.

"Haha, it seems that Morax and I unintentionally helped Gui Zhong."

Blue Sky and Morax exchanged a smile upon hearing this.

Just do it.

After deciding on what to do next, Blue Sky and Morax jointly issued a mobilization order, summoning 80,000 workers from their territories to build the city wall of Guixiuli. Blue Sky and Morax would provide the materials needed to build the city wall, while Guizhong would be responsible for planning the location and extent of the city wall.

However, to the surprise of the three gods, not long after the conscription order was issued, more than half of the people in Guixiuli, whose total number was over 200,000, flocked to the area, surrounding Lantian, Morax, and several Thousand Rock Army soldiers and Shura Knights who were in charge of registration, making it impossible for them to pass through.

Seeing the astonished expressions on Lan Tian and the others' faces, the burly man in the lead laughed and explained:

"God of War, Emperor, we all respect and admire you both, and we all want to witness your power. So, upon learning that this was a joint summons issued by you two, we all came spontaneously. Rest assured, we are all very capable!"

Blue Sky and Morax smiled slightly upon hearing this, nodded, and then Blue Sky joked:

"I am pleased with the enthusiasm of my subjects. But I only need 80,000 people at most, and you now have more than 100,000. This makes things very difficult for me, the God of War. Can't you make things a little easier for me?"

"Hahahahahaha."

Everyone burst into laughter upon hearing this.

Subsequently, under Lan Tian's selection process, 80,000 workers with the strongest physiques were chosen, including the burly man who had been chatting with Lan Tian.

"Rest assured, God of War, leave the construction project to us, your subjects!"

The burly man standing at the front of the crowd accepted the architectural blueprints from Lan Tian, ​​patted his chest, and made a generous guarantee.

The architectural drawings were created by Lan Tian and his two companions over half an hour to ensure that everything was perfect.

"Then I'll leave it to you. However, the project will start in three days. During this time, you should all get some rest and prepare for the start of construction in three days. Can you manage that?"

Lan Tian raised his voice a few decibels as he shouted the last sentence to the crowd behind the burly man.

“Yes! Yes! Yes!”

The crowd behind them spoke excitedly.

"Very good! With you all here, there's no reason why Guixiuli shouldn't be strong! Everyone, go and get some rest!"

"it is good!"

After responding to the blue sky, the crowd dispersed and went back to their respective homes.

"Hey! Having too much prestige is a problem too."

Watching the crowd gradually disappear into the distance, Lan Tian shook his head with a gratified smile, and then went to find Gui Zhong and Morax to discuss the follow-up project matters.

……

It was noon on the third day.

"I hereby declare the construction of the Guixiuli City Wall project to begin!"

"Oh oh oh!"

As a light, melodious girl's voice rang out, Gui Zhong, sitting on the flying sword constructed by Lan Tian, ​​put on a stern face and began to rally his people, mimicking Lan Tian's manner. However, Gui Zhong's appearance was rather adorable, lacking any of Lan Tian's majestic and domineering aura.

However, upon hearing Gui Zhong's voice, the many workers who were ready to go excitedly waved their fists and shouted as they rushed toward the city wall location planned by Lan Tian and others. Some workers were responsible for moving the building materials that Lan Tian had constructed the day before, while others were responsible for laying the foundation or the city gate.

And so, a massive project began in earnest.

But just as the project was in full swing, a series of spirited slogans came from behind, instantly attracting the attention of Gui Zhong and many workers.

"One, two, one! One, two, one! One! Two! Three! Four!"

"one two three four!"

Tap tap tap tap tap!

Accompanied by the resounding clang of armor and the resounding shouts, Lan Tian led a large number of fully armed Asura Knights into view.

"One, two, one! Halt!"

Tap—tap!

As Lan Tianli gave the command, the numerous Asura Knights stopped simultaneously amidst two heavy footsteps, their faces solemn as they looked towards the city wall, adding a chilling atmosphere to the air.

Amidst the astonished gazes of Gui Zhong and the numerous workers, Lan Tian, ​​at the forefront of the group, began to issue commands:

"All Asura warriors, heed my command! Proceed to the front of the city wall to stand guard and protect the safety of our workers! Move out!"

"Yes!"

As soon as he finished speaking, in addition to the five thousand Asura Knights setting up camp nearby, the remaining six thousand Asura Knights were divided into teams and, amidst the solemn respect of the workers, marched in unison through the city wall. They stood ten meters in front of the city wall, forming a line with one person every five meters, their backs to the city wall, holding various weapons and entering a state of alert.

Lan Tian, ​​after the Asura Knights arrived, gripped the Rock Spear and rode a flying sword to the top of the city wall, looking around with a serious expression.
