721 Master Falling? (1/2)

Donglin Cloud Continent, Xuexun City. This place was 3,000 miles away from Rainbow City. It was close to the Cloud Ocean, back to the plains, connected to all areas.

Especially in the recent few years, it became prosperous, becoming a port only smaller than that of Rainbow City.

However, at this moment, the south of the city was ablaze. Numerous cries spread for dozens of miles, a real tragic feeling all around.

A group of Blood-Colored Cavalry galloped in the air like thunder.

They chased forward at the few Taoists who were leaving into the distance.

A few of them suffered heavy injuries, but they could barely maintain it. Their magical laugh shook the wilderness.

Zong Yuan's brow rose, his thin Phoenix eyes were filled with rage. He suddenly tossed out the spear in his hand. Instantly, it passed 100,000 feet. Blood and lightning glow flashed as one of the Taoists were blown up, scattering into flesh and blood. This caused the laughter to stop.

However, right as they chased near the shore of the Cloud Ocean, Zong Yuan frowned and stopped.

The entire cavalry force slowly stopped. It wasn't that they couldn't chase up, but that they weren't willing to be diverted by the enemy.

Although he wasn't the commander of the Blood Cloud Cavalry, he controlled all cavalry troops in Gantian Mountain now. Naturally, he knew the importance. What was lost couldn't be salvaged, what was important was to reduce any more casualties.

Just as those people disappeared from their field of sight, a Taoist stepped out from the mist, standing still 500,000 feet away.

Zong Yuan didn't attack. These few days he realized how tough it was to handle this person. It wasn't that he couldn't win, but that his traveling method was extremely weird. He was also good at the Path of Space, each time he would be able to escape easily.

All in all, Zong Yuan didn't have much confidence in him and thus wasn't willing to exert much effort.

He felt weird, not knowing what the reason was for him appearing alone?

”I am Zigui, I request to meet Inspector Kong...”

Request to meet Kong Yao?

The doubt in his eyes grew. However, before he was able to think about it, he felt a person step up from within Xuexun City.

Without needing to look, he knew that it was definitely Kong Yao.

A silver crafted armor made her look valiant and heroic. Her brow was tightly furrowed, her pupils were filled with rage.

”I am Kong Yao!”

She asked, ”The people are innocent, don't you think you all are too much?”

Even if she supported being unscrupulous during the war, she couldn't accept massacring civilians.

”To succeed, one doesn't bother with small matters! If not how can we shake your Gantian Mountain foundations? With your intelligence, it is surprising that you are so dumb.”

Zigui broke out into laughter, but he didn't want to mock her anymore, ”Moreover, it isn't up to me. I am just following the orders of the Vast Habitat.”

Kong Yao laughed coldly and shook her head, ”Based on what I know, 60% of people in Xuexun City believe in Taoism. The people who died believe that they are supporting our cause...”

”If our Taoist Faction wants disciples to support our kindness, they need to also fear our Taoism methods. This is the only good method.”

He impassively said this, before his gaze switched and he sized up Kong Yao.

”Let's not talk about this matter. Some useless bugs, who cares if they died. They are probably just some numbers to you, no need to care too much. I came just to see you. I have been curious, be it intelligence or plans, you are above me. What kind of person, what kind of woman are you? Meeting you today I really am not disappointed.”

Kong Yao frowned once more, she didn't like the disdain and how he was looking down on her.

”Today, I have lost this engagement. Your planning of changing illusionary to real is so well used. These 4,000 Blood Cavalry were still east of Donglin yesterday like they were rushing to Cloud Saint. Today, they silently rushed back to Gantian Mountain. You even arranged 200,000 troops in this city. If not for me being prepared in advance, we probably would have totally died here.”

Zigui smiled mercifully and out of interest looked out at Xuexun City which was in flames.

Suddenly his tone changed, his eyes filled with passion as he looked at Kong Yao.

”You are Zong Shou's Concubine? But why are you still a virgin now?”

This one sentence startled everyone. Zigui's tone was filled with confusion.

”Why not be my Dao companion? During these 213 years, I have never met a girl that could interest me. You are the first...”

The killing intent on Zong Yuan's face was extremely thick. He didn't allow anyone to offend Zong Shou, which also included his concubine.

He served Kong Yao for close to a year and respected her ability, he didn't allow anyone to humiliate her.

Kong Yao spoke out coldly, ”Dao Companion? Who are you even to compare with a single toe of my Husband? I can't do anything to you, but if my husband found out, he would slice your tongue to feed the dogs! Your Taoist Faction has had 25 Sects wiped out. Can your Vast Habitat even protect you?”

Zigui's expression changed, fluctuating between white and green. He laughed, ”The Monster King's actions are truly unexpected. However, the damage is already done, how can a person make much difference? Gantian Mountain will fall within three months, there is nothing Zong Shou can do about it. Kong Yao, you are smart and should know about that. Why not leave a way out for your father and yourself?”

When Kong Yao heard that, a bright smile appeared on her face. ”However, yesterday my father viewed the stars. He said that there is an Emperor Star to the South. Your Taoist Faction might have a decent sized blood calamity, with a Master falling...”

Zigui was startled. He had heard about Kong Yao's father Kong Rui.

He was great at Divination Techniques. He was famous all over Great Shang with his skills. In recent years, his name sprung up in the Cultivation World, rising to the same level as Zhongxuan.
