832 Yuanlian Situation (2/2)
Out of the few powers, their Cloud World was the weakest. As such, they had to rely more on the native powers of Yuanlian World.
”As expected, conquering outer regions isn't a simple matter. It seems like it is time for me to come out…”
Zong Shou looked forward. During this month, he had accelerated time in the room by 10 times.
At this moment, he could already instantiate 40 stars.
His comprehension of the Dao was becoming slower and slower.
He was still a huge way away from the 72 stars that he planned to use to break through to Celestial Realm.
As for the Ten Extreme Imperial Dao Formation, after he was familiar with the sword crafting process, it became faster and faster.
At this moment, he doubled a full 24 swords. White in color, Spiritual Light flashed and hung around him.
He didn't know about their strength, but in terms of looks, the newly crafted swords were much better than the previous ones.
Dragon Aura was vast, there were even rough signs of shadows of Instant Space Dragons hidden within.
Just at this moment, Zong Shou felt something and looked outside, only to see yet another talisman fall and hang outside of the Yuanjing Palace, spinning around.
Zong Shou took a look and then raised his hand, allowing it to charge in and land in front of him.
The talisman opened and Tanqing's image appeared in front of him.
It was a projection, the person was tens of thousands of miles away and bowed toward him.
”A month has passed, has Ruler considered it?”
He called him Ruler as a form of respect. It was obvious that during this month, the Tianfang Deacon hadn't been doing nothing and had investigated his identity within the Cloud World.
Zong Shou looked forward curiously at this Spiritual Light projection.
10,000 miles image projection? That's an interesting skill.
This person chose such a perfect time.
If he was too early, he would sound desperate and become annoying. If it was too late and they gained a footing, it would also be inappropriate.
He impassively looked at Tanjing and said coldly, ”I know about the rules, but I still need three months!”
”Three months?”
Tanjing frowned, ”It is okay with me! But Xuanling Guild and Nine Capital Celestial Court might not agree. How about a month? Tanjing can help speak for you. It is bad to offend them all. Ruler please think about it…”
”A month and a half!”
Zong Shou was firm, he was going to bargain no matter what.
”A month and a half later and I won't interfere with this Yuanlian World matter.”
Tanjing hesitated slightly and then he nodded, ”Let's follow what Ruler says. With 45 days as the agreed time. At that time, if you are unwilling, there will be no less than 40 Celestial Realm Experts descending. When that happens, the situation can't be stopped…”
Seeing Zong Shou scoff coldly, his eyes filled with mocking intent, Tanjing stopped and said carefully, ”There is also one more thing I need to tell Ruler! Recently, a few people arrived in the area around Tianfang World. They said that they came from the Lu Family and were scouting about a murder months ago. The location and time are similar to when Ruler entered and left Tianfang World.”
Zong Shou's eyes squinted, his expression didn't change. He was extremely calm.
”Murder? It probably is me. Then, is your guild going to tell on me?”
”Ruler is joking!”
Tanjing said awkwardly, ”No matter how we want to get into their good books, we won't betray you and offend Dragon Shadow Saint Venerable. Our Tianfang Guild can't take that repercussion too. It is best to stay out of it. I just told you the news to remind you!”
Only now did his expression relax. These people knew their place and balanced pros and cons.
Since the matter was solved, he smiled, ”Is your Tianfang Guild interested in doing a deal with me?”
The moment he said this, Tanjing's brow rose and his eyes were filled with surprise.
He didn't know what deal Zong Shou was going to propose.
If it was to form an alliance, then he would stay far away from it.
Although his background was strong, apart from Aokun and Dragon Shadow, there was too little strength he could take out.
※※※※
After discussing with Tanjing, they talked until the Ten Thousand Mile Image Projection Talisman used up all of its Spiritual Energy.
An hour later, Zong Shou smiled and walked out.
The negotiation made him satisfied.
”Hong Jiuchen, Mufang, Fuyue, Chahou Hu…”
These were the names of the few people that day.
During this half a day, Tanjing didn't hold any secrets back, telling him all the intel about their strength, the men under them, etc., all to Zong Shou.
At this moment, Hong Jiuchen's Nine Capital Celestial Court was the strongest out of all the powers in Yuanlian World.
They occupied the richest southwest area and were sharpening their troops, staring aggressively at Jiujing's old land.
The other few were the same, prepared to split this southwest area.
Their situation was really dangerous. This outer region exploration and expansion really wasn't simple.
The moment he walked out, he saw Feng Taiji standing there.
He was stunned when he saw Zong Shou and then came back to his senses, ”Ruler, the various Emperors from the countries have arrived, would you like to meet them?”
