With eight survivors plus Yi Chen and Su Qingyue, Xuanhuang Village now had ten people.
Yi Chen set simple rules:
Shared food, rotating shifts, and united against beasts.
Master Zhuge planned building positions and managed resources.
Hua Lan led patrols.
Xiang helped move wood and repair fences while recovering.
Su Qingyue used her plant talent to grow wild vegetables.
Ding!
[Xuanhuang Village order stabilized]
[Territory experience increasing steadily]
[Village can now upgrade to Level 2]
Yi Chen confirmed the upgrade.
The shield expanded slightly. Two more huts and a small farm appeared.
In the distance, beast roars continued without end.
But within this small safe zone, there was finally stability and hope.
Yi Chen stood high, gazing at the chaotic new world.
With these three extraordinary people by his side,
his eternal kingdom had taken its first solid step.
