Three years, compared to the long lives of Hill or Nora, may be just a moment.
But for humans, there are only a few three years in a lifetime.
Fortunately, Caroline is not an ordinary person. Zhang Feng is her belief. She always firmly believes that Zhang Feng is not dead and that Zhang Feng will definitely come back.
So in these three years, Caroline did not become depressed or disappointed. Instead, she worked hard to build Hongye City, Buck Kingdom, and even the entire Orc Continent in a proper manner! Just for the day when Zhang Feng came back, he could see this rejuvenated world.
And now, Zhang Feng is finally back.
Zhang Feng stretched out his hand, Caroline walked over gracefully, then snuggled up to Zhang Feng, quietly feeling the breath of Zhang Feng. No one spoke, even Zhang Xiaotang, who was always jealous, did not disturb him at this moment.
"Is she...Caroline?"
She needs to absorb back the drop of essence and blood that she had fed to Zhang Feng in order to restore herself to her adult form.

Therefore, they were extremely curious about Lin Yulan.
Although the population of the Red Leaf Empire has not yet recovered to the peak level of the Red Leaf Continent, its overall national strength has increased by who knows how many times.
Emperor White naturally wanted to refuse, but seeing the unfriendly look in Ancestor Amy's eyes, he swallowed his words of refusal.
Zhang Feng suddenly received a joint letter from all the kings of the Orc Continent, and even Emperor White came in person.
I am so lucky to meet such a good woman in my life!
Windsor was indeed distracted by Zhang Feng's words.
Zhang Xiaotang was a little embarrassed, but finally told her secret with a blushing face.
"good!"
No one knows how strong that continent is, but it can definitely destroy the current Orc Continent easily.
On a sunny afternoon.
He thought that he could relax from then on, but Zhang Feng found him.
"I don't know what to call this sister?"
"No, you've done a great job! You may not know that if you hadn't bought us some time at the last moment, we would have been in the sea monster's stomach by now!"
So, in the third year after Zhang Feng returned to Hongye City.
Zhang Feng did not hide anything this time, but when these incredible things came out of his mouth, Caroline and the others were just like Lin Yulan who had listened to Zhang Feng's stories about the other world before, with their faces dumbfounded.
"Ah? You and Zhang Feng are from the same place!"
Among them, the one who was most active in promoting the merger was White, the Emperor of the Sirius Empire.
There are many races there, humans, elves, orcs, dwarves, goblins... Most of these races are stronger than their Moon Shadow Elves!
Caroline could tell at a glance that Lin Yulan and Zhang Feng had a special relationship, but there was no dissatisfaction on her face. Instead, she felt very cordial.
"Zhang Feng, I'm sorry!"
Because Caroline issued an order for everyone to join the army!
Especially when he found out that everyone was really kind to her and there was no intrigue at all, Lin Yulan felt a little ashamed. Maybe she had watched too many palace fighting dramas! However, in the second half of the night, a small figure still sneaked into Zhang Feng's room.
White looks quite old, but in fact he should still live another 100 or 200 years. Plus, he has experience in this area, so he is the best candidate.
Intellectual, elegant, noble...
"good!"
"But……"
Everyone has died once, and they all know that it is better to live a miserable life than to die. Rather than being a king who may be sacrificed at any time, it is better to work for Hongye City.
"What's wrong?"
With the mutual exchange of resources, the mainland's economy is also developing rapidly.
Lin Yulan didn't know what the other party was thinking, whether he was really as kind as he seemed, or he was smiling but had a dagger hidden behind his smile, but no matter what, she definitely couldn't lose the upper hand.
Windsor always put herself in a low position. Even when she was welcoming Zhang Feng's return, although she wanted to rush into her master's arms, she held back. It was not until everyone else had spoken to Zhang Feng that she walked up to Zhang Feng with tears in her eyes.
Low EQ: They want to join Zhang Feng!
Their reason was very simple. After experiencing the sea beast incident, they knew how insignificant they were. If there were sea beasts in the outside world, there must be other things. If it happened again, they might not be able to withstand it.
Zhang Xiaotang's eyes are all crescent-shaped.
After returning to the hall of the City Lord's Mansion, all the women surrounded Zhang Feng and Caroline. Obviously, they wanted to know what had happened to Zhang Feng in the past three years.
At night, Zhang Feng thought that there would be a happy marriage, but he didn't expect that no one came to see him until late at night! Zhang Feng used his spiritual power and soon found that Caroline and the others were in Lin Yulan's room, listening to Lin Yulan's stories about the modern world? Zhang Feng shook his head helplessly and had to spend the lonely night alone.
And this time, Zhang Feng will lead the team personally to find the new continent.
"Don't worry, ancestor. I guarantee that the task will be completed!"
"Hmm~"
"No, I grew one centimeter taller!"
Zhang Feng was going to reward her in the evening! But unexpectedly, Zhang Xiaotang came first in the evening.
But the problem lies in being honest, especially being honest in spirit. Zhang Xiaotang has no experience at all. She is afraid that she can't control her thoughts. If she imagines some bad scenes to Zhang Feng in her mind, Zhang Feng will feel it all! Especially, she likes to think about these things when she has nothing to do.
Only through integration can we have the strength to fight against the outside world!
Before Windsor could figure it out, Tina next to him rolled her eyes at him and whispered, "Bah! Hooligan!"
It turns out that Zhang Xiaotang had the opportunity to recover to her adult appearance a long time ago. In that case, her strength would be greatly improved, and she could have helped Zhang Feng in the battle with sea beasts instead of letting Zhang Feng take risks, so she wanted to apologize.
"Ahem, I'm not talking about height..."
The cat-eared girl was about to cry.
The ministers subconsciously opposed for a while the emperor's plan to go out in person, but after seeing Zhang Feng's determined eyes, they didn't say anything more. In addition to trusting Zhang Feng, more importantly, they had the means of long-distance communication, so they would not be cut off from contact as soon as they went out. Moreover, with the presence of the dragon, Zhang Feng could fly back at any time.
After hearing this, Zhang Feng was surprised and felt very apologetic towards Caroline.
In order to welcome Zhang Feng back, everyone personally prepared a welcoming banquet for Zhang Feng. Lin Yulan also went to help. It was not very luxurious, but it was definitely their most sincere expression of their love.
Zhang Feng felt warm inside as he ate.
Soon, another year passed.
"yeah!"
But there is not no solution at all. As long as she relaxes her mind and speaks honestly to Zhang Feng, she will be able to slowly absorb that trace of essence and blood energy. After a certain period of time, she will be able to restore her true form.
"Zhang Feng, I'm sorry, I didn't protect you well..."
To be honest, Zhang Feng didn't really want to be the emperor. He felt that being an emperor did not give him as much freedom as being a small city lord. But there was nothing he could do. If he didn't become the emperor, no one else in the entire continent would be qualified.
"It's nothing, just remember that you are my savior! Well, today is a happy day, let's not talk about this, let's talk about something happy!"
In any case, the area of the Red Leaf Empire is indeed not large, and its development has now reached a bottleneck, so after a high-level plenary meeting, Zhang Feng announced the next stage of the goal - to find a new continent!
…
…
So, Zhang Feng kissed Zhang Xiaotang on the forehead and said:
Even the Orc Continent itself is most likely just a small piece cut off from that continent!
"I, I'm afraid I'll never see my master again..."
As for White himself, he was indeed a little depressed.
The world is so big and he wants to go see it.
In the following time, Lin Yu Lan integrated well into this world.
…
When he heard this, Zhang Feng was stunned.
If necessary, these retired veterans can be recalled at any time!
Especially now that the population of the entire continent has dropped by more than 70%, it can be said that the land is vast and the population is sparse, and there is a lot of money but few people.
Especially after hearing Nora say that the place where she used to live was an extremely huge continent!
Zhang Feng was appointed as the first emperor of the Red Leaf Empire! However, Zhang Feng was lazy. Although he was an emperor, he threw all the daily routine affairs of the emperor to White.
Zhang Feng was moved when he saw those ice-blue eyes.
One month later.
So, Lin Yulan forced a slightly stiff smile on her face.
Looking at Zhang Feng and his several wives, White had a bitter face. He also wanted to go out and play! But there was no way. He had to take good care of the ancestors he had awakened.
Lin Yulan looked at Caroline with complicated eyes.
It is easy to say that looking for a new continent, but this planet is much larger than the modern one, and he is not sure that he can find it. Fortunately, Nora provided some information that can roughly determine the location of the new continent.
When humans reach the age of eighteen, they will be forced to perform military service. Although they only need to serve for two years before being discharged, there is a difference between those who have received systematic training and those who have not.
However, the essence and blood have already merged with Zhang Feng's soul and it is impossible to forcibly separate them.
Lin Yulan, who was secretly cheering herself up, suddenly saw Caroline and Zhang Feng separate, and then walked to Lin Yulan's side very gracefully.
This is what a true noble is! Lin Yulan even felt inferior to him.
After Zhang Feng came back, Caroline reported all of this to Zhang Feng, not to take credit for it, but to let Zhang Feng know the current situation on the mainland and then formulate the next development plan.
"Little Windsor, what's going on?"
Since those sea beasts could almost besiege and kill them, it is not surprising that other forces or creatures also have such strength.
"Don't you want to restore your true form? Come on, I'm looking forward to what you'll look like when you grow up!"
Merger is not a trivial matter. Under normal circumstances, it may take a long time to argue. However, after experiencing a crisis like the end of the world, everyone understands that only with absolute strength can one have the right to speak! Their small countries can't even deal with a sea beast. What if a stronger enemy appears in the future? Therefore, merger is imperative!
"Don't worry, I'll take you there later!"
Of course he liked Zhang Xiaotang, but she looked too young, so Zhang Feng didn't make a move on her. This also led to Zhang Xiaotang becoming a little confused. She didn't know whether Zhang Feng's liking for her was friendship or love.
Of course, Caroline didn't treat them badly. The various subsidies and benefits they received during their two years of military service were even higher than what they would get if they went to work! After all, Hongye City had nothing but a lot of money.
Especially when Zhang Xiaotang and Amy were holding Zhang Feng's arms on the left and right and acting like a spoiled brat, Zhang Feng had no choice but to say:
Of course, Caroline did not forget to develop military strength. Although there was no innovation in weapons and equipment in the absence of Zhang Feng, the number of soldiers was more than before the sea monster disaster!
It's just that Prince Dean is a bit pitiful. He thought he would be able to become a royal prince after serving as a prince for a few more years, but now it seems that he will probably never be able to become a royal prince.
After three years of development, except for the population, the buildings, roads and other infrastructure of the Orc Continent and the Stardust Continent have been almost restored.
Zhang Feng didn't understand why Zhang Xiaotang wanted to apologize to him.
The reason why she didn't say anything was because this recovery method was a little difficult to talk about...
In fact, after the merger with the Sirius Empire, he felt reluctant, but more of a relief.
Zhang Feng changed the subject.
As for jealousy, it seems that except that Zhang Feng smelled a little sourness from Zhang Xiaotang, there was no change in anyone else.
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, I will definitely take good care of the Red Leaf Empire!"
Zhang Feng has had the World Tree moved away from the giant tree in the Sunset Mountains, and from then on the two continents have officially become one.
There was no other way. As the people wanted it, Zhang Feng could only accept it reluctantly.
Without Zhang Feng's further explanation, they knew that Zhang Feng was not from the East, but from another world! When they heard that there were tall buildings and cars everywhere in that world, they all showed eager eyes.
"Master~"
So, Zhang Feng gave Emperor White a position as prime minister. Zhang Feng gave him great power, but he still needed to consult Zhang Feng on important matters.
"Alright, alright, the master is back! Three years have passed, why are you still so small?"
"My name is Lin Yulan, and I'm from the same hometown as Zhang Feng!"
In this way, Zhang Feng became the first emperor of the Hongye Empire.
And now, the development of the Red Leaf Empire has gradually slowed down.
There is no way. The ancestor of their Tianlang tribe is Zhang Feng's wife. According to seniority, Zhang Feng is their ancestor, so how can they not be positive! Besides, White has long wanted to unload this burden, and now is the perfect time.
Therefore, in order to deal with future threats or to explore the main continent, they cannot fight alone. They must merge and combine the strength of all people on the continent!
"?"
After listening to Zhang Xiaotang's story, Zhang Feng found it a little funny.
"Little Amy, you still care about me!"
No one knows what terrifying things there are outside the mainland, but I think they will not be weak. The sea monsters are a lesson for us.
She had been called a little princess since she was a child, but after seeing Caroline, she felt that she was not worthy of being called a princess at all!
However, compared to Lin Yulan, there are already many mysterious things in the other world, so they can more easily accept Zhang Feng's experience.
Their goal, Gao Qingqi said, is to merge and form a unified continent.
For a moment, she even thought that Zhang Feng and Caroline were a better match! But soon, she threw this outrageous idea out of her mind.
It’s so embarrassing to think about it. Simply put, Zhang Xiaotang has the intention but not the courage to do it.
The various countries in the Orc Continent, including the Sirius Empire, and the Buck Kingdom in the Stardust Continent have officially merged! After the merger, all humans and orcs will no longer fight each other, but will have the same country - the Red Leaf Empire! This continent is called the Red Leaf Continent.
Zhang Feng said to White: "Prime Minister, the Red Leaf Empire is now handed over to you."
It can be said that if those sea beasts come to attack now, Zhang Feng does not need to take any risks. Relying on the strong national strength, he can definitely defeat the sea beasts in a head-on battle!
For this long journey, Zhang Feng spent countless financial resources to build a large ship comparable to an aircraft carrier and several frigates.
…
Not to mention Caroline, even the others looked at Lin Yulan in surprise. They never thought that Zhang Feng would bring a fellow villager with him! Then, Lin Yulan found that she seemed to have become a hot commodity? There was no way, because Zhang Feng didn't talk much about his hometown, and the things he occasionally revealed were amazing.
After giving a few more instructions, Zhang Feng led everyone on board.
Feeling the cool sea breeze, Zhang Feng was in a good mood.
"set sail--"
"Towards the New World!"
