203 Chapter 203 Ocean Amounts of Inheritance (1/2)

Zong Shou nodded his head in silence. A thousand mysterious armor wind dragon cavalry. That's a heavy amount. He wasn't willing to thank him, just feeling grateful in his heart.

”Naturally, in this world, it is impossible for there to be absolute loyalty, so don't let them down.”

Speaking of which, Xuanyuan Tong waved with his hand and the one at the front of the cavalry rode on the most majestic wind winged dragon beast and came by Xuanyuan Tong's side. He opened his armor, it was Tan Tao who nodded his head at Zong Shou as a form of respect.

”Although the 2 beside you are experts that can go up against 10, if you face a Xuanwu ancestor, you still at a disadvantage. As for Ruoshui, although Weiran personally trained her, her injuries haven't fully healed. I'll let Tan Tao follow you. That Yunxia Mountain and Blazing Flame Mountain mess is caused by him, so let him make up for it!”

When Xuanyuan Tong said those words, he was still furious, viciously staring at Tan Tao. The latter could only bitterly laugh, following which his expression turned solemn, ”don't worry City lord. On this trip, I definitely won't let the prince die in front of me!”

Only then did Xuanyuan Tong smile in satisfaction. On the contrary, Zong Shou felt his head hurt. Why did he get this scheming fellow? He would rather he got Luo Xian instead.

However, at this moment, he couldn't reject him. He could only helplessly say, ”Thank you, Father in law. These thousand mysterious armor wind dragon cavalry, just 3 months and I will return them completely intact back to you!”

”No need. You are the young city lord of Xuan Mountain City. They are yours in the future. Just let them follow you. Naturally, you are also in charge of keeping them alive...”Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please clickfor visiting.

Seeing Zong Shou's mouth agape, Xuanyuan Tong smiled, ”I know that your father had left you a huge sum in the Sanlu Bank before he hid into the Oblivion Cloud Ocean. You should be able to afford so little people right?”

Zong Shou was speechless, how were this so little people? 10 martial ancestors, 50 xiantian masters, 200 mythic masters. The rest were all above 5 meridians.

Also, one person had 3 horses, a total of 3 thousand wind winged dragon beast. This human and horse food, and also salary. Without 400 and above grade 4 mind stones or 4000 grade 4 beast crystals he couldn't afford it.

Amongst which half would be taken by the few martial ancestors. The spiritual pills and mind stones provided for their cultivation was around 2 thousand grade 4 beast crystals.

But how much production did Gantian Mountain have each year? They did have many mind stone mines but those needed to be split with those secret sects.

He remembered that the yearly income of Gantian Mountain. This included all the taxes, the amount handed over from the cities along with the shops they ran and ingredients they sold, if counted in grade 4 beast crystals, there was only around 30 thousand. Every year the number of beasts they hunted was not little, another 250 thousand crystals.

In other words, to support this thousand mysterious armor wind dragon cavalry would more or less take up 1/80 of the overall income of Gantian Mountain.

Even if he returned and inherited the Monster king position, this sum of money wasn't something he could casually make use of.

Now, the only thing he could place his hope on now would be that the funds Zong Weiran left for him were huge enough.

Xuanyuan Tong seemed to see through his thoughts, smiling slightly, ”Don't worry! Don't forget that Brother Weiran was already an ascended ancestor 6 years ago. He could charge beneath the cloud ocean and kill grass 7 beasts with no injuries! Alone he could obtain above 10 grade 7 beasts. These years he would pretty much go to those famous danger areas every day to grind his skill. You can imagine how enormous his coffers were. On estimate, the amount of money he amassed should be enough to buy my Xuan Mountain City.”

Zong Shou's eyes constricted, his heart instantly placed down. However, there were waves that surged in his heart.

In this era, above the Cloud Continent? Beasts above grade 4 were rare. Even if there were they would either be in groups or they lived in really dangerous places, most were like Little Zhi who became sentient and won't something normal xiantian masters could kill alone.

This was why grade 4 and grade 3 were close to a hundred times price different.

However, there might not be above the Cloud Continent but beneath it, there were numerous dangerous areas where many beasts and demons lived.

If one had enough strength, one could sit on cloud warships to hunt them. However, one would be risking their lives. It was extremely dangerous. Even for an ascended ancestor, a day wandering realm spirit master might not be able to keep his life.

Legend had it that during the Cloud desolate era the beasts chased out of the Cloud Continent or lived below. There were numerous ones which were corrupted by demonic air. Even after tens of thousands of years, there would be incidents of ascended ancestors and day wandering spirit masters being surrounded and attacked.

This was why only hidden sects and powers like Gantian Mountain had the ability to form teams to hunt for beast crystals.

This was also why numerous martial ancestors and xiantian masters joined Gantian Mountain and Xuan Mountain City. As for the crystals obtained in the abyss, half of them would be given to the city lord. The others, including the leather and skin, could be kept by them.

And the yearly tax by Gantian Mountain was not much. Half of the fortunate came from beneath the cloud ocean. It was because every time they entered, there would be very few casualties. This was why they were able to rule the west of Donglin Cloud Continent.

...The prince knew that Zong Weiran was strong, but for him to be so strong, to such an extent, was baffling.
