Chapter 306: Chapter 305: This is Our Home!

“What is that …”

Kuliya and Nanali gaped, looking up at the sky above them, unable to utter a word. They saw a colossal floating island slowly appearing in the azure sky. It looked like an enormous mountain hanging upside down above the firmament, a sight so awe-inspiring it sent shivers down one’s spine.

“What, what is this?”

“This is our new home.”

Fang Zheng raised his head, casting a satisfied glance at the Heavenly Dao Palace before him, then turned towards the people around him.

“How is it? Are you satisfied?”

“Satisfied, satisfied, what do you mean ‘satisfied’! You mean to say, we are going to live up there?”

Kuliya was so flustered she could hardly speak clearly, continuously pointing at the floating island with a tremulous hand while shouting loudly. Nanali, on the other hand, stood petrified like a statue, her head tilted back and mouth agape, frozen in a stunned stance, motionless.

“Don’t worry, the view is quite nice; you’ll surely like it.”

With that said, Fang Zheng snapped his fingers with a “pop”, and the next moment, the endless ocean that filled everyone’s vision suddenly vanished, replaced by a stunningly beautiful landscape.

The first thing that caught their eyes was a lush green meadow with giant bodhi trees growing amidst it, a white aqueduct reminiscent of those from the Roman Empire extending along the entire edge of the floating island, and at the end of their view was the horizon of the moat surrounding the Heavenly Dao Palace. The warm sunshine poured down on the earth, and a cool breeze interspersed with the scent of grass blew gently by, bringing a sense of exhilaration and tranquility.

In the very center of this floating island stood a majestic and elegant palace with white bricks and red tiles.

This was the personal space that Fang Zheng had acquired in the World of Shana—the Heavenly Dao Palace.

Fang Zheng had heard of its origin; it was said that the Heavenly Dao Palace and the Hall of the Star Dawn were once two halves of a whole, created by a Follower of the Crimson Realm who revered art. Later, it withdrew from the Masquerade Ball, taking the “Heavenly Dao Palace” with it and leaving the “Hall of the Star Dawn” as the headquarters of the ball. However, in the end of creation, while the Hall of the Star Dawn was destroyed, the system somehow managed to bring back the Heavenly Dao Palace… But truth be told, Fang Zheng was quite fond of it.

Beautiful, endless meadows.

Pristine, clear rivers and lakes.

Huge bodhi trees.

And the luxurious palace—unlike the Hall of the Star Dawn, which displays a glorious and elegant Gothic style, the Heavenly Dao Palace boasted a grand and regal design, reminiscent of a royal palace. Whether it was the tall domed corridors, the spotlessly clean floors that nearly reflected one’s image, or the gorgeous murals and colorful windows, they all conveyed an invisible yet powerful sense of might.

At least, for some “commoners”, it did.

“Am I really going to live here?”

Surveying her surroundings, Nanali felt like she could barely keep on her feet.

“I feel, I feel I’m not suited for a place like this…”

“Me too…”

Kuliya was also looking distressed, casting an uneasy glance at the immense palace.

“To be honest, it is indeed beautiful here, but… How should I put it, it’s too uninhabited! It lacks vitality, and besides, such a large area will be difficult to clean. How many attendants will we need to hire…”

“Indeed, that’s true.”

Hearing their complaints, Fang Zheng nodded his head. Although the Hall of the Star Dawn palace was also vast, it was home not only to Fang Zheng and the Three Pillars but also to numerous Kings of the Crimson Realm. It was like those grand hotels where everyone is quiet in their own rooms, but the lobby feels bustling and lively. However, the Heavenly Dao Palace was different; there were probably fewer than ten people here including himself, which could be somewhat of a headache to live in—exaggeration aside, if the Heavenly Dao Palace and the Hall of the Star Dawn shared the same design, it would take Fang Zheng half an hour just to walk from his bedroom to the dining hall.

And if the others were not living on the same floor, it would probably take an hour to gather them all together.

Although following the Masquerade Ball practice, he could use the Power of Existence to create phosphorus maid attendants to serve him, Fang Zheng always found such things, which seemed like mechanical dolls, to be dull—rather, if the entire palace were staffed by those things, it would feel more haunted, right?

It was indeed inconvenient for the few people to live in such a large palace, and what’s more, there were no attendants. Black Katie did not look like someone who would do housework, and Tilia and Nymph were indeed all-rounders in domestic chores. However, after giving it some thought, Fang Zheng felt that entrusting such a large palace to these two little ones would be too much of a torment for them.

As for Nanali and Kuliya… well, better not to trouble these two humans.

Fortunately, there was a way to resolve this issue.

It seemed he would have to splurge a bit.

Heaving a silent sigh, Fang Zheng opened the Dimensional Codex and, after expanding his personal space, he could use Dimensional Points and Furniture Coins to exchange for various constructions and decorations, as well as plants. In addition to residential buildings, he could exchange for shops, markets and, upon achieving certain special achievements, could unlock brand-new buildings. However, for Fang Zheng, the most pressing issue was to address the housing problem first.

“Do you have any requirements for your housing?”

“Huh?”

Hearing Fang Zheng’s inquiry, everyone was stunned for a moment, then Kuliya looked at Fang Zheng in surprise.

“Is Mr. Fang Zheng planning to have people build houses? This place is a bit too far, isn’t it?”

“There’s no need for that.”

In response to Kuliya’s question, Fang Zheng waved his hand.

“As a mage, I have my own methods… well, what about you? Do you have any requests?”

“Then, then I want a mansion, with a garden too!”

Kuliya, the most easy-going of them all, immediately made her unreserved request.

“That… that… I just want an alchemy atelier… preferably a sturdy one… and…”

As she spoke, Nanali hesitated. She looked uneasily at Fang Zheng, eventually continuing timidly.

“It would be best if everyone could live together… There aren’t many people here, and I think it would be livelier if everyone lived together…”

“I just want to live with Elder Brother.”

“Me too, as long as I can be with my master…”

“…”

“Alright, then it’s settled.”

Seeing the reaction of the girls in front of him, Fang Zheng could only shrug his shoulders. He could understand Nanali’s thoughts; after all, the Heavenly Dao Palace was a bit too large. Like Fang Zheng said, it was even a tad larger than the City of Korhal in terms of area. Of course, this was because the entire Heavenly Dao Palace was very “natural,” unlike the Hall of the Star Dawn, which was designed as a battle fortress filled with houses and sturdy towers, leaving no open space visible. But here… well, it inevitably gave one a sense of vastness as if “the sky was vast, the fields were boundless, and the wind blew low the grass, revealing cattle and sheep.”

Since the girls weren’t very demanding about their housing, Fang Zheng quickly decided on a French garden mansion capable of housing ten people. He then spent 1000 Furniture Coins to exchange for it, and Fang Zheng also conveniently exchanged for a coffee shop for the girls’ daily leisure and entertainment. However, what Fang Zheng hadn’t expected was that he encountered a problem in the category of the alchemy atelier that Nanali had requested.

The reason was simple—there were too many suitable options.

“Marie’s Atelier… Ellie’s Atelier… Lily’s Atelier… Rorona’s Atelier… Totori’s Atelier… Melulu’s Atelier…”

Looking at the long list of exchange options in front of him, Fang Zheng was left speechless.

Which one to choose?!
