483 Unprincipled Ruler (2/2)
”Why is this happening? Is someone attacking the cloud world?”
”That's impossible! Our current cloud world is so stable. There are tens of end realm experts outside. It isn't like ten thousand years ago when anyone could slaughter us. Even if they want to attack, they would have to wait until the spiritual wave begins.”
”Since this void is shaking not due to the outside, it means that it comes from within and is from the depths of the cloud world…”
”Do you all feel a difference in the spiritual energy?”
”It seemed to have stopped moving! How did this happen?”
”It feels like something is about to happen. I feel uneasy. I also feel terror, like a scary presence is about to descend on the world. Are such changes a sign from the heavens?”
”Before the spiritual wave even begins, all kinds of weird things have been running out.”
Jueyu was slightly startled. He felt the same way in his heart like something was about to happen.
However, he didn't feel fearful or terrified. He also didn't feel that scary presence, only some uneasiness, and many random thoughts rising in his heart which couldn't calm down.
Looking at the person who was speaking, it was just a grade 6 spirit master. Most probably it was an illusion.
Thinking about it for a moment, Jueyu reached out with his hand. An old man dressed as a coachman appeared right beside him.
At this moment Jueyu took ten golden-colored spiritual talismans and tossed it over.
”That is a teleportation talisman and a soul settling talisman. Go and take a look if any heaven signs are occurring outside? The heaven and earth are shaking, be careful!”
After he said that, he continued to look towards the direction of the common people's vast habitat. Looking from the outside, 1 of the 5 vast habitats looked like a watery blue barrier existing in the void.
Looking behind him once more, helplessness appeared in his eyes.
He originally didn't want to attract so many people. However, he also wasn't willing to give up on his fight against Tanqiu.
Only by battling such top sword path talents could he train in and grind his sword technique.
So no matter what, he needed to see that person. Even if his methods were a little despicable.

”How is that possible? Did that woman say that?”
Within Gantian Mountain, in the original Shili Ling Xiangding, it was still that restaurant. Li Zhile nearly crushed the wine cup in his hands.
His eyes were about to pop out, filled with flames of rage.
That day, he had listened to the orders from Kongyao to wait outside Gantian Mountain to head towards Longxiang City together.
Who knew that Kongyao wouldn't be alive even after a long time. There were no signs of her. He could only return to Gantian City to try to pick up some news.
Who knew that such a thing had happened.
Besides Li Zhile sat a Xuanwu realm cavalry who also wore silver armor. His expression was dark and sunken, filled with rage.
”It definitely won't be wrong! I paid heavy gold to pay for the news from a few maidservants within the Hanyan Palace. That monster king is prepared to make governor commander his concubine. This matter has already been spread out amongst the higher-ups of Gantian Mountain.”
Li Zhile was more and more infuriated as he heard it. The wine cup in his hand couldn't take it anymore and was crushed into dust.
”How shameless! This Gantian monster king is an unprincipled ruler! How bold!”
He wanted to grab the spear in his hand and kill his way to the peak of the mountain to capture that monster king to question him!
However, thinking about Zong Shou's ability to break a grade 8 talisman puppet in one sword, Li Zhile thought about it carefully and decided to forget about it. The worse the situation, the calmer he had to be. He couldn't panic and he couldn't be impulsive.
Who knew if it was a total coincidence, but at that moment, a new group of customers started to discuss about Kong Yao.
”Guys? Did you hear about that large battle that day at the mid-waist of our Gantian Mountain?”
”How can we not remember? That shocked the entire city. I heard that our mountain city suffered much destruction, and several houses were destroyed. Luckily, no one was injured.”
”Do you know who was the one who attacked that day? What was the reason?”
The one who spoke was a round-faced fat guy. His face was too fast, and it made his eyes seem small. He wore an expensive-looking robe and was acting profoundly.
It wasn't until the people around looked over did he say with a satisfied expression on his face, ”The ones who fought that day, one was our Gantian Mountain famous general. He was Zong Yuan who had led 3 thousand cavalry to crush 400 thousand troops. The other was a title governor commander from the central continent. I heard that it was a woman, looking as beautiful as a flower, a true national beauty. She is only 29, and over ten days ago, she was captured. Our ruler is prepared to make her his concubine…”
The surrounding people were stunned, exchanging glances with one another. At this moment, the people who didn't pay much attention all looked over.
”Is this true?”
”Definitely! The prime minister mentioned it personally in front of my brother, how can it be fake?”
No one cared about who this fatty's brother was. However, their interests in the matter were perked.
”To become the concubine of the ruler, her looks must be top grade. I want to take a look…”
”Isn't what he is doing the same as forcefully snatching a commoner girl? How can he do that?”
”Didn't the ruler do it before? Do you remember that musician Xuan? The ruler is good at everything, the only thing that he is too lustful…”
