554 Within Gantian City (1/2)
Tantian Mountain Zhengang Peak. When the information inside the message talisman was all sent into his mind, Renbo felt his brain explode. It was totally empty. After feeling lost for a moment, a huge amount of joy surged out from his chest. After feeling elated, his emotions surged again and he nearly fainted on the spot.
Looking around, only to see that within the hall including Xushu, everyone joining in the meeting was totally calm. He suppressed the joy of hearing Qiuwei's big victory as they looked over with questioning expressions.
Renbo took in a deep breath and knew that these words still needed to be said. He only felt his tone being really unstable, ”There has been news from Mysterious Cloud Mountain, Ruler has defeated three million Thousand City Alliance troops! Leading four thousand Iron Cavalry to step all over Mysterious Cloud spirit sect. The entire sect, from top to bottom, has been wiped out. No one survived! Then the third generation ancestor, Shenxiao, died in the hands of the Ruler!”
Within the meeting hall, it was a deathly silence. Everyone was filled with shock and sense of loss, they didn't know what to do.
Some people came to their senses, looking over at Renbo like they were looking at mad people.
Thinking did this old prime minister go mad from being impacted too heavily by the news of that side? Or was did he treat his illusions as reality?
Defeating the three million troops of Thousand City Alliance, with Zong Yuan's unparalleled general talents, that could barely be trusted.
But trampling over Mysterious Cloud spirit sect? That was really amusing…
Even if he wanted to calm down the hearts of everyone, there was no need to think of such preposterous news.
Their hearts were feeling more cold and sunken, afraid that the news back from Mysterious Cloud Mountain wasn't good news.
Renbo had managed to calm himself down, shaking his head to himself, thinking that he knew the outcome would be like that.
After sighing, he stood up and didn't explain anymore. He was also too lazy to deal with these people. He walked out in an unstable manner out of the hall. He seemed really out of sorts.
At this moment it was early in the morning, a bright sun was rising into the sky, its golden rays shining all over, extremely eye catching and majestic.
Renbo was fixed to the spot once more, looking stunned towards the sun.
Victory! A huge victory!
Donglin Cloud Continent can finally be unified today.
A scholar who had no path to take in the past had become in charge of a country. This destiny was really magical!
It seems like Gantian Mountain wasn't far away from establishing a country…
Old friend, old friend, the thing you promised me had been achieved today!
Unfortunately, you aren't here today. Only with such a father, there would be such a son. The talents of the ruler are no weaker than you.
In a short two years to cause Donglin to walk to such a stage, to even destroying Mysterious Cloud spirit sect…
He remembered that the Mysterious Cloud spirit sect third generation ancestor was at the peak of the God Realm. For him to actually die in the Ruler's hand, that was really unbelievable!
All of a sudden, he was filled with a million thoughts. Xushu's voice rang out once more, ”Prime minister! Were your words previously true or not?”
Renbo came back to his senses once more and then gave a self-mocking laugh, ”You all probably aren't willing to believe and think that I, Renbo, have already gone crazy? Or that I was bluffing to all of you? When did my reputation and prestige fall to such a level? Have you ever seen me speak anything untrue?”
Xushu's face turned slightly red, scolding out in his heart about him speaking untrue things. He remembered a few times ago that old man bluffed the Ruler to make him take out cash from his pockets without even blinking an eye. His face was as thick skinned as city walls.
Joy appeared in his heart. He knew that since Renbo said it, then this news was most probably 60% true!
As for the other 40%, he really can't trust the character of this old man. People in politics were never honest men.
For example, he would always use underhanded means.
”I am also lazy to explain to all of you. On the side of Mysterious Cloud Mountain, at most in two to four hours, there will be news that comes back. What's the point of hiding it from all of you now?”
Turning his head around, glancing at the hall, Renbo's lips were filled a cold disdain, ”To be so knowledgeable and skilled like you, it seems like without such a long time, in just a few minutes you would be able to get news. My Gantian Mountain will unify Donglin…”
After saying those words, Zong Shou immediately stopped, he travelled quickly down the mountain without saying a word.
He was really old and clumsy, at this moment was when Gantian mountain was going to attack, to conquer people everywhere.
They needed to expand the army. They needed grain, machines, and pills. They also needed messengers and envoys to send all around.
...It wasn't to convince them. In Donglin Cloud Continent, there was already no one who had the right to let Gantian Mountain try to convince them. It was just purely to force those officials to surrender! They will die if they didn't!
And also to stop the rebellion. More than twenty cities rebelled, there needed to be people to deal with them.
All of this needed him to take charge of the capital city to manage so where did he have time to bullshit with all these people?
At this moment Renbo received yet another message talisman. He thought that it was from Mysterious Cloud Mountain but after looking at it he broke into laughter.
”The Snow Lion race is a little unstable? There are signs of rebellion. This is already the twenty-eighth spot. Those clowns are really asking to die…”
What should have been a piece of extremely terrible news couldn't shake his heart at all at this moment. Instead, he found it really amusing!
He always didn't understand why Zong Shou would bring this Snow Lion race out from the Cloud Ocean and give them a city and land.
He was just too forgiving and magnanimous towards them. They really were a bunch of ambitious wolves that forgot about kindness and help…”
Right behind Renbo, Xushu frowned and didn't speak. He really couldn't judge whether or not what the old man said was true or false.
