How Am I Still Alive?

Chapter 1911: Chapter 1905: Taking Root
Regardless, the plan of the Fallen Warrior was still executed.
The reason is simple: high cost-effectiveness and strong executability.
With just a small team carrying instruments and conditions, they can find the Warrior and start the “persuasion.”
Once persuaded successfully, they can directly or indirectly guide a city’s future…. That persuasion team can completely turn into a beheading squad to help the “Fallen Warrior” remove some obstacles, like a lord, city lord, or village chief.
Moreover, under the operation of Fei’er and Catherine, they soon developed a simple and efficient operational method.
“Step one, inform them that the identity of the Warrior is merely that of a puppet… how about showing them films or videos?”
Though it sounds a bit far-fetched, a classic trick of deception is to first shatter the other’s values and worldview, making them doubt the world and themselves.
There’s plenty of evidence, including firsthand accounts from renowned Warriors.
Once the opponent wavers, the next steps become easier….. for those revealing the “truth,” they will instinctively tend to believe.
“Step two, intimidate them by telling them about the crisis facing the world….”
Upon seeing the plan reach this point, Lu Ping’an felt it was enough.
The rest is merely operational specifics, such as how to behead the obstructive lord, how to use deceptive words to guide citizens into “exodus evacuation,” and what scale of “Doomsday disaster” to create if persuasion fails.
These things are quite excessive, but Lu Ping’an appreciated them.
Because he himself is someone who values the result more than the process or means.
In his view, life has value, and as long as this value is preserved, whether the methods are righteous is not important.
With limited time and manpower, he could even approve decisions like direct population plundering, let alone the relatively mild deception.
“Force bearers? Can’t you use your brains a little more…”
However, looking at those children who only grow stronger, Lu Ping’an still felt a bit subtle.
Perhaps what was even more complex was the so-called “Crown Prince”… Though Lu Ping’an was destined for immortality, if he were to fall unexpectedly, this force would naturally dissolve without needing to consider a successor.
This “Crown Prince” seemed more like Lu Ping’an’s “avatar,” sharing his responsibilities.
Lu Ping’an was quite happy that the Fei’er sisters stepped up, as he himself had too many matters to handle, often needing to guard the courtyard, indeed requiring agents and frontline executors.
“Seems like, I can start letting go a bit…”
Standing at the highest level of the courtyard, watching the busy crowd, even with the end drawing near, Lu Ping’an could maintain a calm heart.
He was no longer alone, now having a batch of demigods serving as force bearers, a growing new generation capable of managing things independently, and newly supplemented mature middle forces.
For everyday skirmishes, he indeed had no need to intervene personally, as long as no major issues arose, he could merely wait for the final report results.
He should focus his attention on more critical matters, fundamentally enhancing the group’s power….
“Developing new professions, climbing new paths, creating new species, cultivating new Family Clans…”
Having expanded the courtyard countless times, it was already an entire continent; even with many newcomers and refugees joining, it still appeared overly desolate.
Except for the core area’s “Life Courtyard,” habitually overcrowded, the remote areas remained vast wildernesses.
“Let them develop new industrial zones and plantations…”
Although letting Foreign Domain natives work on plantations might seem like a hellish joke, as a professional Life Cultivator, Lu Ping’an specialized in life cultivation.
This vast Land of life was cultivated using “materials” from the Earth Realm.
Leaving it idle equaled wasting Lu Ping’an’s abilities, and the concept of “life cultivation” was also a demand from Lu Ping’an’s side.
Large quantities of “Ancient Trees” had already stretched across the courtyard’s wastelands, yet Lu Ping’an needed more valuable “Creations.”
The strength of a life force was certainly dependent on its Creations.
As a Gardener, Lu Ping’an’s achievements in Beast Tamer and Healer were astonishingly formidable…. Although slightly complex, life forms like the Dragon descendants proved Lu Ping’an’s abilities while also deviating his path.
“Having come this far, I can’t forget my roots… The Lamp Tree is unparalleled in guiding the lost.”
The Lamp Tree was very powerful, sourced from the ancient Sun God’s lineage, with commendable strength and practical limits of its purifying Holy Fire.
Back then, it was the flagship product of Lu Ping’an’s forces, but now, it seemed a bit insufficient.
After all, when he created it, Lu Ping’an wasn’t yet strong.
Now, he was beyond comparison with the past.
As a conceptual creation of his own, could it not be upgraded?
“At least now, our testing fields are absolutely sufficient…..”
Vast expanse of Land of life lay idle, being an overly extravagant waste.
Especially now being linked with this world, allowing free… borrowing of local resources and power for cultivation, Lu Ping’an saw no reason to refuse.
“The top priority project is to upgrade the Lamp Tree.”
As a Gardener, carrying a “legion” was actually standard, but as Lu Ping’an grew too quickly, these things remained in a state of confusion even after cultivation.
“Mumu… would you mind working overtime?”
“You’re asking a tree?” The green-eyed girl tilted her head, full of confusion.
Recently “enlightened,” Mumu looked at Lu Ping’an, yawned, and then started to doze off again.
Like her sisters, after being “named and enlightened,” she too gained a humanoid form.
Unlike the expected green Dryads…. she appeared like a blonde Miss.
During her birth, too many materials from the Foreign Domain might have been used, resembling the appearance of alien Elves in Lu Ping’an’s impression.
Her golden hair was smooth and brilliant, like sunlight, with wooden round earrings on her pointed ears.
In every aspect, she seemed overly “biological.”
If one had to find some Tree-man traits, perhaps only the serene emerald eyes sometimes appeared too wooden, and the faint patterns on her arms and thighs, akin to tree patterns.
Her birth went smoothly, yet her strength and behavior mode remained quite subtle.
It’s not that she’s weak…
“When you sit there, surrounding trees and Magic Plants will grow crazily.”
“But I will suppress mutations.”
Her anti-magic skin had already sublimated into an “Anti-Magic Field,”
“….. Your bloodline extending would form a very powerful Family Clan, would you like to try?”
“I refuse, I don’t want to be a mother yet.”
However, what was initially thought to be the most obedient “good girl,” turned out to be surprisingly rebellious.
