462 Envoys from the 3 Cities (1/2)
Seeing Qiaohan's emotions fluctuate for a moment before calming down, Zong Shou was impressed. Before this, he had underestimated elder Qiao.
It was normal to not agree. If Qiaohan agreed without asking the sect for such a matter, he would feel worried instead.
”That's okay! Please ask your sect to answer quickly! Apart from that my Gantian Mountain still wants to order 400 thousand spiritual armor and weapons. Can your sect pay for the material costs?”
Qiuwei and Zong Gang were delighted when they heard that. They knew that Zong Shou had already agreed to their suggestion to expand by 400 thousand troops.
Qiaohan didn't hesitate when he heard that, nodding his head, ”I can decide on this matter!”
He knew that at the current moment the wealth of Gantian Mountain, its hidden potential was far from what the many sects expected.
No matter whether or not their Kongqi Sect allied with Gantian Mountain, in the end, they didn't need to worry about Zong Shou not paying up.
If they were allies, strengthening Gantian Mountain and increasing their chances of winning was what they were expected to do.
He was grumbling in his heart. If Kongqi Sect wants to obtain enough benefits from this war, they need to throw in a lot of strength. Maybe even the grade 9 elders have to participate.
Zong Shou smiled as he said thanks. He led with the horse, bringing these 2800 of them back towards the west coast of the evil spirit moat.
Then, he saw a golden talisman dance in the sky. When he came out of the yin mist it descended towards him.
It was a message talisman. Due to the yin power of the evil spirit moat splitting them up, it was unable to find Zong Shou's position and was suspending in mid-air.
At this moment when he appeared did it land. Zong Shou took it and a moment later his lips curled.
”Interesting!”
His hands clenching onto it as he smashed the message talisman in his hands into pieces. Renbo found it weird, asking curiously.
”What matter has made the ruler so furious? Did something change in the common people dao palace?”
Gantain mountain, under his management, had decent politics and peaceful people. The commoners had a great life and they had a strong army defending so it wouldn't be that.
More recently, he had heard that sword prince Jueyu had defeated the top of the 10 shrines Tailing Sect, winning all their young experts. Anytime he would find his way to the common people vast habitat.
Zong Shou shook his head and laughed, his voice already returning to a calm state.
”It is Blazing Flame and Yunxia Mountain city who sent people over to meet me. Apart from that, they have the envoy from Thousand City Alliance following along. They seem to want me to return them the land that they gave up to us.”
Renbo and Qiuwei's brows furrowed right away, revealing some rage.
In Qiaohan's heart, he felt that this was preposterous. If it was before today, he would think that the outcome was undecided.
However, at this moment he knew that Gantian Mountain would win 100%.
Zong Shou's goal was from start to finish the powers behind the Thousand City alliance and Yunxia Blazing Flame cities.
To return the land...Did water enter the brains of Xiong Yu and Feng Nu? Did they want to die?
Weren't they looking to be murdered?
Zong Gang gritted his teeth out loud, smiling coldly, ”So it means Yunxia and Blazing Flame City are joining hands with Thousand City Alliance?”
Zong Shou kept silent and didn't reply, he then said, ”there are 2 people who say they are from great Shang, on orders from the emperor. They say they have a decree...”
Renbo was startled, Great Shang? Central dynasty? Why did Great Shang people come over to such a ”barbaric land” like the Donglin Cloud Continent?
※※※※
Directly changing his armor and clothes, splitting up from the blood cloud cavalry, Zong Shou traveled swiftly. In just an hour, he rushed back to Gantian Mountain City.
Within the evil spirit moat, killing for 4 hours, much evil aura and yin energy had gathered on Zong Shou's body.
It was why he sent silently for a moment, to attract heaven and earth spiritual energy, burning up spiritual flames. He burnt for 15 minutes to get rid of them before he headed for one of the side halls of the Hanyan Palace.
Before he even got close he heard a loud commotion within.
Zong Shou didn't care but just as he was about to enter he heard the sound of porcelain being smashed. He stood in his tracks and listened in.
Only to hear a sound, saying coldly, ”I'm sorry! The tea is cold. How cold, I wasn't able to hold it properly. Speaking of which, we have already waited 4 hours here. When will your ruler show himself? Is this how your Gantian Mountain treats guests?”
