I Created an Empire After Entering a Lordship Game

Next up: The Envoy. Scroll down for the blurb.

[The Lord Game has begun. The plundering phase will start in one week. Losers will be erased. Strength is your only means of survival.]

When Bai Yue wakes up, the cold, mechanical game announcement is ringing in her ears. Behind her are a broken thatched hut, a patch of weed-covered land, two low-tier workers, and a set of basic tools.

In the distance lies a thick fog, marked "Undeveloped Area."

Exploring new areas, developing wasteland, fortifying her home, and upgrading as quickly as possible are Bai Yue's only ways to prepare for the other lords' plundering in a week.

On top of that, the natural disasters that descend on a schedule through the game system and the evil forces invading her territory are all difficult trials that threaten her survival.

Bai Yue gets to work at once to upgrade her territory, but suddenly realizes that there's something a little different about it.

Strange prompts float above everything she sees.

(Low-Tier Green Grass: Woven into shoes and worn, it can increase movement speed.)

(Golden Spirit Grass: Eating it can boost energy and speed up labor.)

(Superior Soil: Ordinary plants grown in it can be upgraded to superior grade.)

(F-Rank Worker: If the lord gives a worker beauty, they can lure enemy soldiers into betraying their side.)

Bai Yue: I get it!

The first plundering and erasure begins. The neighboring lord charges straight toward Bai Yue's territory with his own, ready to plunder it.

But...

The minions he'd worked so hard to upgrade and recruit rebel on the spot. The house he'd built crumbles like an egg smashing against a rock.

Before the battle even starts, he can only watch as his territory is plundered instead.

Not long after, another lord launches an attack...

And Bai Yue's territory grows even larger.

Bai Yue: ...I didn't do anything... Would anyone believe me?

Bai Yue: I say my territory stretches as far as the eye can see, with countless islands around it and more workers than I can count. It's grown big enough to form an empire in the Lord Game, and none of it was my own choice. Do you believe me?

The empire flourishes, and Bai Yue's name resounds far and wide. Then one day, she suddenly receives the "Winner's Reward."

After leaving her territory and entering the so-called "Higher World," Bai Yue suddenly realizes... there's something strange about this world...

The Envoy

Jiang He hates her eyes, which can see spirits. They bring sickness into her body, one misfortune after another, and a life of hardship and loneliness.

She also hates the spirits, who cling to the mortal world, festering with resentment and drawing people into harming others and losing their humanity, becoming consumed by greed, anger, delusion, and bitterness.

Until one day, a spirit kneels before her and begs, "Please help me."

During the thirty-five years of Emperor Mingxiang's reign, all supernatural beings were forbidden on the Jiuzhou Continent. Anyone with the ability to communicate with spirits was persecuted, and anyone discovered was ground to dust.

Risking being ground to dust, Jiang He raises a demon spirit...
