Chapter 412

As time advanced, there came more and more people headed northwest in search of the treasure.

Shangguan Xuanyi had already issued public announcements throughout the regional Government Offices, declaring that the so-called treasure was a myth, but to no avail. Nobody believed him, or maybe they just didn't want to miss the chance to strike it rich overnight despite the slim possibility!

The situation escalated as some villages even organized their able-bodied male villagers to join the treasure hunt.

Though many left, only a few came back.

However, those who managed to return insisted on the existence of the treasure. They also claimed they saw a fairyland in the desert, which was filled with abundant food and beautiful houses.

They returned to take their families with them back to the fairyland to settle down.

Upon hearing such rumors, more and more people set off, with many impoverished civilians joining the hunt for this fairyland.
