"Baron, come on." Xia He said to Nietzsche: "In addition, I will grant you the title of Viscount, and you can form your own army, with a scale of 3,000 people. There is no need to follow the empire's organization. If there is a lack of manpower, you can temporarily second it with Freya. You can also select talents in your family."

Nietzsche was overjoyed. He followed Xia He and did his best, not for the sake of improving his personal strength.

For him, family is very important.

Xia He asked him to form an army of 3,000 people, that is to say, if he trusts him, his family will also be protected by the duke. In fact, the duke has done a good job in this regard. Some of his family have gone to Storm Corner, some have come to Sun City, and some have gone to the Underworld.

Even if someone targets him, the family's blood will definitely be preserved.

"Smith, you organize the second expeditionary force and go to Red Sea City to see. We have given the half-elves enough blood to almost consolidate them."

Smith was stunned for a moment, and soon reacted, got up and saluted, and accepted the order.

Xia He named him one after another and assigned the tasks after he left. After the assignment was almost done, he said: "If Freya is not here, all the affairs of the Duke's Mansion will be seized by Medielli. Medilly is not here, and Smith is the decision. If Smith is not here, Jack will temporarily command."

Jack cotton was about to speak, but Xia He stopped him and said, "I am naturally in Storm Corner, but there are no ones who can command the command yet. From now on, I will naturally return to assign the authority of the Duke's Mansion, and there will be a hierarchy ladder. It will not be possible to leave many doors when I am not here."

Xia He has absolute authority, and after he finished speaking, no one objected.

But the next thing is trivial matter. The upper class staff in Sun City also had something to ask Xia He for advice. During this period, he went into seclusion and practiced, and many things were accumulated and not dealt with.

After everyone left, Smith stayed and said to Xia Hedao: "Teacher, why are you giving me permission? You know I'm not good at managing anything at all."

Xia He thought for a while and said, "Do you know my relationship with Freya?"

Smith shook her head and said, "I know the teacher absolutely trusts her."

"Because if I die in another world, she will not be able to survive. Although Medielli is not good at commanding, she is the most powerful person in the Duke's Mansion. If she lives, she can still take you there. If she is finished, I actually don't expect you. I just hope you can make good use of these resources."

"teacher!"

"I mean, who can guarantee that I will never die? I am now a legend, which is the realm of Yang God that you mentioned. Under normal circumstances, the demigod wizard cannot completely kill me unless it is a place like the True God or the City of Juno."

Smith closed his lips tightly, took off the Huangquan Earth-hiding Talisman on his neck and gave it to Xia He.

Xia He put it on his back and said, "This is just a Five Elements Escape Technique. Now that I have become the Yang God, I can get into the ground by myself and I can't use this thing."

"What if I can use it?" Smith was about to take it off again.

Xia He held his hand and said, "Smith, the trouble I will face in the future is much greater than this time. If you really want the teacher to die, just work hard to practice, just like your senior sister, and be able to help me."

Smith's eyes were red. He had always been concentrating on practicing swordsmanship and didn't have to worry about anything else. Suddenly, the teacher wanted to go on an expedition and arrange the things behind him, which made him confused and a little at a loss.

If Medielli was here, she would definitely not be like this, she would definitely not!

"Smith, don't be blinded by such things. Your strength is enough. What I need is that you have a realm and can live forever, rather than bursting out combat power in a short period of time. If I need it, I can create a few legends now."

"Yes, teacher!" Smith agreed loudly, standing there, his whole body was like a sword.

Lonely, and sad.

Xia He was pleased that Smith would always grow up and remember today. People cannot live without goals and cannot just live by themselves. Medilly knew what she wanted, but Smith was still young.

This is not a difference in age, and in fact, Medielli is not very old.

But growing up among pirates since childhood has allowed her to mature earlier.

"Smith, Shrek, if I were alive, he would have absolutely no problem. If I died, guess what would happen to him?"

Smith curled his lips and said, "This man is ambitious, I don't admit that he is my fellow disciple."

"Yes, he has ambitions, but Medielli can suppress him. If I'm not here... Medielli is not here..."

"I'll kill him."

"But he is still your fellow disciple, do you understand?"

Smith thought for a while and said, "I understand, I'm targeting things, not him."

"That's good. Do you have anything else?"

"It's gone." Smith was a little discouraged. He originally wanted to talk about his progress in swordsmanship, but the atmosphere made by Xia He made him unable to say anything. His progress would not help the teacher.

"Your swordsmanship is almost done. After I leave, you go to Red Sea City without having to hold back. I will ask Metathrin's people to take care of you and make sure that the half-elves legend will not attack you."

"yes."

"Then you go." Xia He saw that he didn't object, and knew that this kid was finally smart. It was worth investing in him now, provided that he should not die.

"teacher!"

"What else?" Xia He looked at Smith, and the boy's eyes had returned to calm. He suddenly walked up, lowered his head, and hugged Xia He with a strong grip.

Xia He was surprised and then patted his shoulder.

"I will work hard to form an expeditionary force and beat the half-elves to the point of... and disappear."

"I will ask Abigail to come back and help you. When you can go to war, she will be almost legendary."

Smith said with a bitter face: "Why, they are all legendary?"

"You're soon, too."

"I'm not in a hurry, teacher, then you're busy, I'll go practice swordsmanship." Smith took his leave, looking worried.

Before Xia He started to be busy, Freya heard another message: "Sir, you have to come here in person."

"In person? Storm Corner?"

"yes."

"What a serious matter?"

"It's not serious, no matter how serious I can solve it. I found a child, or it's a baby. The qualifications are very good, you have to come and have a look."

When Xia He heard this, he immediately ran to the teleportation array and teleported directly to Storm Corner.

Seeing Freya, she was holding a baby less than one year old in her arms, with a white and clean face and a slightly bigger eyes. She looked down at Xia He curiously.

After scanning Xia He's spiritual consciousness, he found that the child's soul was extremely pure, and there was no need to mention his physical qualifications.

It turns out that he is a scholar who practices Taoism. The main reason is that his soul is so clean that he can practice the six divine ashes. But he is less than one year old!

“Where did it come from?”

"In the goblin ruins, a farmer couple was born."

"You can't steal other people's children!"

"Not robbed, the couple was poisoned to death by accident, and the child was left at home and no one cared about it. Your student found out and wanted to adopt it, but I saw it."

"Poisoned? How could it be in the goblin ruins?"

"It's said it's a ruin. The gold dug out from the ground is poisonous."

Gold? Xia He remembered that many people buried their wealth here and came back to take it away. Some people even poisoned gold?

If it weren't for the fact that they had done so many things, the child's parents wouldn't have dug up such things.

Xia He sighed, the farmers in the underground world are all very reliable and have good physical fitness. They also think that the professionals who have improved their growth are all crops that Taoist eats.

Originally, this child would be tested only when he was three years old and sent to the Taoist Palace to study at the age of six.

Pitiful……

"You take care of him personally and keep him in the Taoist palace. In terms of diet, you should follow the standards of the core disciples. Anyway, this is already the case. First cultivate his body, and then be a Taoist priest and my disciple."

"Sir, give him a name."

"Just call me... Xia Shang."

"What about the name used in this world?"

"Just call him Astria Xia."

"Astria, I really hope he can learn your true story." Freya pinched the baby's face with her fingers, and Astria giggled.

"It's really good." Xia He exclaimed. Not every baby can tell whether the person he faces has malicious intentions towards him.

"It's very good." Freya smiled.

Xia He nodded and took out a piece of chalcedony. The fire in his palm emitted it, carrying a trace of thunder. The chalcedony was refined into a small jade plaque with a slight roar. It was pure and flawless, without any pattern.

Freya took out a leather bag, stuffed the jade token in, sealed the mouth with a rope, and hung it around Astria's neck.

Xia He stroked the baby's forehead with his fingers, and a little bit of force penetrated in.

This power is mellow and gentle, and will steadily nourish the baby's sea of ​​souls, not the soul itself.

This is the disciple Xia He chose, who inherited his mantle, and his soul must be independent. Just like Xia He's own soul, which has never been intervened by humans, was all strengthened by his own practice.

Even if the Taiyin Immortal Palace was about to perish, his teacher did not do anything to pull out the seedlings and encourage them to grow.

Xia He took out another jade bottle and handed it to Freya and said, "This, you often rub it in his dantian."

"Is it the Six-Life Yuan Talisman?"

"Well, in this way, his practice will last three years in the morning, and he doesn't have to wait until he is six years old."

"Will it be promoted too quickly?" Freya asked worriedly.

"No, when he is almost done, I will take him to the Broken Abyss and let him feel it, and then he can practice honestly."

"Okay, I won't teach anything anyway." Freya shook her arm and looked at Astria with a smile. The more she looked, the more she liked it.
