Reincarnated As A Demonic Dragon, I Formed A Pact With A Beautiful Female Lord - Chapter 278 - 278 Territory Expansion

278 Territory Expansion

After inspecting the territory to her heart’s content, Su Wan took the Night Elves, the Rotten Cavalry, and the succubus outside to slay some monsters. They were the main strength of the territory and would be fighting at the forefront during an attack. It was necessary to train them.

Xu Yuan didn’t accompany them for such a small mission. Only dangerous places like the mythical ruin were worthy of his attention.

This was Eliza’s first time being part of such a system of leveling up. She only needed to follow what the others were doing and gain experience points.

Xu Yuan stayed behind but kept track of Su Wan’s progress through shared communication. She led her troop to the void crack. In the early stages, Su Wan simply skipped fighting.

!!

When the Night Elves and the Rotten Cavalry caught up with her, Su Wan became calm. She stayed at the back and watched the show as her team fought.

As expected of a troop from the mythical ruin, the Rotten Cavalry was really strong. Su Wan was happy. With such strong troops, she could soon sleep and gain experience like Xu Yuan while her troops fought on her behalf!

“My beautiful Lord, you can’t be lazy. You have to level up and collect more resources. When the territory is upgraded, I will level up too! Why don’t you try and gain some experience points while you are there?” Xu Yuan’s voice startled Su Wan, who was lazily watching her troops fight.

She turned around. Xu Yuan was perched on the wall behind her. ‘When did he arrive?!’ He had caught her red-handed.

“I will work hard!” said Su Wan with a scowl. “I only wish you wouldn’t squeeze me dry like this!”

She joined Eliza and the others to kill the monsters around. Time passed quickly, and their territory entered a short period of peace and stability.

The number of residents had increased in the territory. They were close to upgrading the territory to Level 4.

[Territory Core Upgrade Requirements]

[Land Area: 7/10 square kilometers (Not yet achieved).]

[Total amount of resources: 1300/2000 tons (not yet achieved).]

[13/20 buildings (not yet achieved).]

[Population: 14560/20000 people (Not yet achieved).]

The experience points gained were enough for Xu Yuan to reach the Level 70 threshold.

Everything was developing beautifully. However, Xu Yuan felt that it would be even better if Su Wan was less jealous of everyone.

The morning sun was warm and beautiful. Su Wan hugged Xu Yuan. She convinced him to turn into his human form when he slept. His arms were wrapped around him. One of her legs hooked around his waist.

Su Wan opened her drowsy eyes and reluctantly left Xu Yuan’s warm embrace. She walked to the vanity table and began to get dressed.

She tied her long hair into a ponytail and took a sip of the Hundred Night Flower Honey that she kept in a small bottle.

The Hundred Night Flower Honey was supposed to be very effective in restoring and maintaining youthful beauty. She probably might be the only person to own something like that in this world.

A notification sounded. Someone mentioned her in the group chat.

[Shi Linglong: @Su Wan, respond!]

[Su Wan: What is it?]

[Shi Linglong: Wanwan, the three of us were planning to upgrade our territory to Level 3 and also expand it. We sensed frequent movement of the Light and the Dark-Types in the past few days. We are planning to expand toward your territory.]

[Zhao Qingrong: That’s right. The world is becoming more dangerous day after day. We need to stick together!]

[Lin Yao: +1]

The territories of the four Lords were far from each other. They had planned to expand their territory outward to new areas, but the Overlord Plane was becoming more dangerous. It was logical for them to expand toward each other and close the distance between their territories.

Everyone had to be prepared. When the time came, the four of them could band together for a fight.

The Light-Types were very quiet after the incident with the Venom Vultures. They might be brewing some other trouble in secret.

Su Wan’s friends needed her permission if they were going to expand toward her territory. Without her consent, they couldn’t infringe on her borders.

Su Wan was the strongest among them right now. By joining her, they would all benefit.

[Zhao Qingrong: What do you think? In the future, we can have a sleepover! The four of us!]

Su Wan snorted. ‘Who would want to sleep with a bunch of tramps like you?’ She always enjoyed hugging Xu Yuan to sleep, especially since he changed into his human form at night.

She walked to the bed and sat on the edge of it. “Xu Yuan, Shi Linglong and the others are planning to expand their territories toward us. What do you think about it?” she whispered in his ear.

“Do as you please,” said Xu Yuan and turned the other way to continue sleeping.

[Su Wan: Sure. You all can expand toward my territory. When I expand my territory, I will do it toward your territories as well.]

[Zhao Qingrong: Thank you, Wanwan! I promise I won’t lay a finger on your precious dragon.]

[Shi Linglong: Wanwan, be careful. Qingrong is flirtatious. Don’t let her get near to your dragon.]

…

There was always some kind of trouble that the Lords had to deal with whenever they chose to expand their territory. Shi Linglong was the first to encounter it.

She messaged for help in the group chat after provoking a Light-Type creature.

Su Wan activated her demonic dragon form, unfurled her wings, and flew over to help her friend.

She wanted to take Xu Yuan with her, but he was busy in a meeting with the Dark Alliance. She felt that she had improved a lot in the past few months to deal with something like this. She rushed to her friend to offer her help.

She didn’t even inform Xu Yuan before leaving.

“There has been news of sightings of a rare Light-Type creature near Shi Linglong’s territory. It is at least of the Mythical Level. We need to tread with caution,” said the Dark Enchanter.

Usually, Xu Yuan wouldn’t participate in the Dark Alliance meetings. However, the Dark Enchanter had invited him specifically because the matter wasn’t something small that they could deal with.

“Mythical Level?” Xu Yuan frowned. He seemed to be deep in thought.

‘Shi Linglong and the others were discussing expanding their territories. What if the Light-Type creatures take advantage of their vulnerability and attack their Territory Cores?’

“I will go and check once,” said Xu Yuan. He unfurled his wings and flew away.

The Dark Enchanter, the White Dragon Saint, the Fallen Angel, and the Red-Eyed Black Dragon all glanced at each other.

Was this still the Dark Demon Dragon that they knew? In the past, all Xu Yuan did was sleep in the Dark Castle. How had he suddenly become interested in something like this? Was it because of his hatred toward the Light-Types? They had many questions but no definite answers.

Xu Yuan flew around Shi Linglong’s territory and sensed the aura of the Light-Type creatures. He didn’t know how strong the creature was.
