What's more, now Xicheng has also become a gathering place for cultivators in the human realm, and the cultivators in Xicheng often form groups of three or five, or even form teams of dozens or hundreds, going out of the city to find cultivators from the other world to fight. After this situation lasted for a long time, the cultivators of the other world gradually understood that the cultivators of the human realm had already formed their own alliance, and in order to fight against the cultivator alliance in Xicheng, the cultivators of the other world had only begun to join forces slowly.

In fact, when this situation in Creek City lasted for a while, Elena was also very happy. Although I don't know why these cultivators from the human realm are gathered in Xicheng, the cultivators here, not only do no one want to snatch her power, but they will all respect the laws and systems in Xicheng.

Seeing this, Elena also had the idea of recruiting these human realm cultivators. But after thinking about it, Elena didn't know what to use to recruit them, Elena had it, those cultivators basically had it, and besides, Elena didn't think that those cultivators really needed to be loyal to her.

But after this thought came to mind, Elena finally made a small determination and sent Mel out to carry it out once. But the final result really didn't surprise Elena, the cultivators in Xicheng basically have their own forces behind them, and they came to Xicheng just to train themselves. Not only were they not the slightest tempted by Elena's solicitation, but they felt that the current Sayy Empire was still qualified to recruit them. If it weren't for the fact that the elders of the family had told them not to make enemies with the current leader of the Say Empire before they came out, then these cultivators wouldn't even be able to give Mel a good look.

But even if it is such a result, it has completely made Elena die, and after seeing that in this era, her strength is becoming more and more discredited, Elena actually gradually understands that the era of the supremacy of imperial power on the Shengyuan Continent for thousands of years has passed, and the current era is already the era of these cultivators.

In fact, it can be said that from a long time ago, this was the era of cultivators, but because most of these cultivators were in a state of hidden cultivation before, although the Shengyuan Continent was large, they did not want to occupy a territory, and in this way, people always thought that having an army and having territory was the most powerful performance. But now people know that they are wrong, and only with real strength can they be considered strong. Army, territory, as long as those cultivators want, they will definitely be able to have it in an instant.

Faced with this situation, Elena also went to Li Yi. Elena just hoped that Li Yi could help her recover the lost territory of the Say Empire, but in the face of Elena's request, Li Yi's last patience with her finally disappeared. Li Yi had always believed that Elena was a strong woman with a stubborn personality, and she was naturally extremely depressed and painful to see the glory of her motherland extinguished in her own hands. So it's understandable that she wants to be restored.

But as Elena made more and more such requests, Li Yi's patience began to dwindle. Li Yi can understand Elena's feelings about wanting to return to the country, but Elena can't understand Li Yi's current hardship. If Li Yi was not injured, then no matter how strong the Otherworldly cultivators in the territory of the original Sayy Empire were, Li Yi would not have any refusal to help Elena snatch it.

It can be realized that Li Yi himself is in a state of serious injury, after several years of recuperation, Li Yi not only did not let the injury be relieved, but in the end, because he took the wrong path, so his physical condition was even worse. Moreover, even if Li Yi was not seriously injured, it would be very challenging for Li Yi to confront those cultivators from the other world.

It is very dangerous to fight when he is at his peak, not to mention that Li Yi is seriously injured now. So in the face of Elena's repeated requests, Li Yi finally said to Elena very impatiently: "I promised your sister before to protect your safety and protect the integrity of your Sayy Empire. But as I said before, it's all within the scope of my ability. Now I tell you clearly, I have injuries all over my body, and the injuries are very serious, and if I forcibly do something with a cultivator of the same level, it is very likely that I will fall into a situation from which I will never recover. I, Li Yi, am not a saint, so it's really hard to do that. If you're in trouble, I'll keep you safe even if I'm desperate, but if it's just to help you grab some kind of bullshit turf, then I'm sorry, I can't do it. ”

After saying these words to Elena so angrily, Li Yi also turned around and left. It was because of these words that Elena woke up completely. Elena has always thought that Li Yi is an invincible guy. And as long as Li Yi is here, then the Sayi Empire will definitely be able to regain its former glory. More than ten years ago, Li Yi did this by himself.

But now, when he saw Li Yi extremely serious, and even very angry to say such things to himself, Elena was really shocked and sober. In her eyes, the extremely powerful Li Yi actually has many existences that he can't deal with. Moreover, Li Yi's injury seems to be really serious, otherwise, it would not have been possible to recuperate for so many years and not get better.

In the end, Elena also clearly realized that although Li Yi is an upright person, he is very trustworthy. But after all, Li Yi is not related to him, perhaps because he promised his sister to protect himself. So for this reason, Li Yi will definitely come to his aid when he is in danger. But if Li Yi risked his life to help him go out to fight the country just to grab the territory, then Li Yi would not do this kind of thing.

And when Elena figured it out, Elena suddenly realized that she seemed to be a little too selfish. Always thinking about restoring the country, always thinking about restoring the glory of the Sayy Empire. But he forgot that he couldn't do this by himself, he could only rely on Li Yi, and Li Yi didn't owe him anything, and he helped himself out of friendship with his sister. So now Li Yi refuses to take the shot in order to grab the territory, which is very reasonable. On the contrary, I repeatedly ask for it, which is really too unkind.

In the days that followed, Elena never talked to Li Yi about such a thing again, and Li Yi was finally able to live a quiet life in Xicheng. It is because of this that Li Yi will be able to leave Xicheng with peace of mind when he is ready to give up this life.

Because Li Yi knows that although Elena is stubborn, after so many years of observation, she should have seen that the current human world has already changed. Not only her Sayy Empire, but even the Tianlan Empire, which was invincible before, and the Atlantan Empire, which had always been ambitious, had already collapsed after the cultivators of the other world entered the human realm. With such examples around her, it is impossible for Elena to stubbornly think that she can do better than the other two empires.

You know, even in the same situation, Elena is at least a little better than the kings of the other two empires. That is, although it was also after the division of the empire, it only had one projectile land, but the West City in Elena's hands was now the most significant place on the Shengyuan Continent. In contrast, the imperial capitals of the other two empires have now become very deserted. Even the Tianlan Empire, like the Sayi Empire, had already turned the imperial capital into a city where cultivators from the other world gathered.

This alone should also reassure Elena a lot. At least under the protection of such a large number of cultivators, even those powerhouses of the other world who want to invade here have to think carefully before thinking about it. In Xicheng, there are a large number of cultivators, and there are many truly strong people among them. It was because of this that in fact, now Li Yi felt that Xicheng should be the most inviolable place in the entire Shengyuan Continent now. Whether it is a cultivator from another world or a cultivator from the human world, when facing Xicheng, if you want to come here to do something bad, you really have to think about it before.

Although the prosperity of Creek City has only just begun, it is in these few years that Elena has seized the opportunity and done her best to make Creek City more prosperous.

That is, in fact, when the cultivators in the human realm had just begun to gather in Xicheng, Alina had wanted to recruit them. Although she failed afterwards, Elena had already realized at that time that although these cultivators in the human realm were unwilling to join Xicheng, they seemed to be able to do their part to protect Xicheng's safety. That alone was enough to make Alina very happy.

After seeing this situation, in order to accommodate more cultivators in Xicheng, Elena actually ordered the city wall of Xicheng to be pushed to the city in such a chaotic time, and then continued to expand the scale of the city outward, but from beginning to end, Alina did not give Xicheng a wall.

This kind of situation, at the very beginning, the cultivators in Xicheng had already realized it. After discovering this situation, they also felt that this leader in Creek City was really a very interesting guy. Because they were able to think clearly, the reason why he dared not to build a city wall for Xicheng was first to allow Xicheng to continue to expand, because with a large number of cultivators from the human realm gathering in Xicheng, no one could say clearly how big a scale would be needed in Xicheng in the future. And the second reason is because the cultivators in Xicheng now, whether in terms of number or strength, can be said to be among the best in the human world.

Among the strong people in Creek City, there are even guys who can compete head-on with the powerhouses of the other world. They came here just to keep the younger members of the family safe. After all, in Xicheng, there are still many children of the hermit family, and they came to Xicheng to say that they were cultivating, but in fact, it was nothing more than the wishes of those old guys, in this way, to buy time for Li Yi to recuperate.

To be honest, at the very beginning, even those powerhouses of the Returning Yuan Realm in the human realm never thought that one of their orders would be able to make Xicheng what it is now. However, after seeing the situation in Xicheng, they were also very happy. After all, at this time, there is a need for a center in the human world. Although Xicheng is located in a remote area, as long as there are continuous cultivators rushing here, then this place can be regarded as the center.

And because of the continuous expansion of Xicheng, these cultivators who came here had a place to live. Even with Elena's benefit, the expanded Creek City has vacated many famous mountains for those who want to start a sect in Creek City without any fees.

In this way, in Xicheng, sects have also sprung up like mushrooms after a rain, and among them, the most famous ones are naturally the sects established by the children of those hidden families. Although these guys are all cultivators in the Hidden Family, they are not convinced by anyone, so they are all in a hostile state when they establish a sect in Xicheng. Fortunately, they all know how to measure and know that there can be no infighting at this time. Therefore, the fight between them is nothing more than the snatching of disciples.

Seeing Xicheng thriving like this, those old monsters in the human world were also very pleased. After all, at this time, it is also very happy to be able to have Xicheng as a stronghold to let the repairers of the human world gradually build up their confidence. That is, in order to make Xicheng develop faster, in fact, when Xicheng was expanding, these hidden families also secretly made a lot of efforts.

It is because of the efforts of many parties that Xicheng was able to expand from the scale of a city to the scale of a province in just three years. In other words, although there is only one city in Elena's hands, this city includes the area of all the cities in the province that she previously controlled. In this way, in fact, the current Creek City is completely an existence that can be compared with the Seine King City. Although Xicheng does not have the magnificent walls of the Seine King City, in the Creek City, the number of cultivators who are now so many is even more awe-inspiring than the walls of the Seine King City.

In this case, Elena basically resigned herself to her fate. Because of these cultivators, she was able to turn Xicheng into what it is now. She knew that as long as these cultivators could really help her, then even without the army, she would be able to snatch back a lot of territory.

However, it was clear that these cultivators did not want to participate in worldly wars, nor did they want to be used as tools of war by others. So Elena knew that it was basically impossible for her to recruit these people. Of course, these cultivators had also expressed their thoughts to Elena with their actions.

But on the other hand, those territories that he wants to snatch back are all controlled by the powerhouses of the other world. Although the territory of the Say Empire was fragmented, the territory was occupied by many otherworldly cultivators. However, none of the cultivators of the other world announced the establishment of political power in the territory of the occupied Sayi Empire, which proves that these cultivators of the other world do not value the political power at all, all they want is a place to live.

But even so, Elena could figure out that if she really dared to use troops now, then although those otherworldly cultivators in the city had not announced the establishment of power there before, it did not mean that they would not resist. And as long as they make a move, it will be a battle between cultivators. No matter how many troops Elena had in her hands, it would be useless in front of these cultivators from the other world. Because she wanted to use the mortal army to fight against the cultivators, Elena gradually knew the inoperability of this matter.
