987 Dangerous Situation (1/2)
He didn't really care about the Cold Crystal Shadow Blade Ships as it wasn't one of the top Earth Grade warships.
Moreover, they needed more than five Extreme Blade Celestials that only the Nine Capital Celestial Dynasty had to have the ability to compete against with God Realm Cultivators.
Compared to the Taiyi God Lightning Ships that needed a random Peak Celestial Realm Cultivator to control, it was much weaker.
At this moment, Great Gan had just risen up and if they hired too many surrendered troops, it would cause a problem of uncertainty and chaos.
However, Zong Shou paid a lot of attention to those Spiritual Blacksmiths.
After all, they had experience in crafting Earth Grade Spaceships and as such it would be easy for them to craft other types of ships.
However, Yi Lingsu didn't accept his fate as easily as Lieque.
Zong Shou used all sort of methods, soft and hard just as Lieque had said. He used strength to force, used emotions to touch him, the only thing he didn't do was use his family to threaten him. Only then did he agree.
He didn't agree to become a Great Gan Celestial Dynasty subject, only agreeing to help Zong Shou persuade them to surrender. Such that his race along with the other artifact blacksmiths that Nine Capital Celestial Dynasty had would all move to Yuanlian World.
He would also try his best to persuade more of the Chill Crystal Shadow Blade Ships to come over to their side.
To Zong Shou, the reason why this person would agree to all of that wasn't because he was truly persuaded by him, but because Nine Capital Celestial Dynasty was on the verge of chaos. He was worried that his family would be wrapped up in trouble and he was just finding some safe harbor for his family.
Zong Shou didn't mind and instead was surprised about it.
Experienced artifact blacksmiths were tough to find. There weren't many of those Cold Crystal Shadow Blade Ships, but the people controlling them, the elite shipmen, were also hard to develop.
It was already 10 days later before he arranged all things appropriately.
At this moment, Yuanlian World was basically stabilized and in his hands. The eastern countries had their royal families changed. Based on merit, various roles were dished out and changed.
He also changed and ordered the various generals to select elites. The Spaceships carried them and were protected by Shi Ruolan's navy to head into the void to hunt the surrounding worlds.
Rather than call this a war, it was more appropriately termed an advance.
At this moment, the small-sized worlds that were originally under Nine Capital Celestial Dynasty were all basically empty.
Some bold ones directly joined his side.
They sent envoys over with big gifts and presents to try to repair their relationship.
On one side, they each wanted to give up land and admit their errors. On the other side, they gathered the envoys from many powers to try to force him this Great Gan Ruler to abide by the rules in this region.
The so-called rule would be that people above Celestial Realm wouldn't be allowed to participate in the war in this region.
Zong Shou scoffed when he heard this. He had already seen through what this rule was really about.
If you were weak, others would treat you like you didn't exist, not bothering with you at all.
Only when you were strong would they care about this rule and start to argue with you about it.
On the surface, he still agreed. After all, Great Gan currently was far from the strength it needed in order to make new rules.
He didn't need to worry much about Yuanlian World. However, as for occupying the Nine Capital Celestial Dynasty land, he had to exert some effort.
He thought about it a lot before deciding to appoint Kui Xuan as Commander.
This person was really stable and capable when he used troops, and the only time when he took a risk he lost to Zhuang Yu. It was probably something he remembered deeply and something he would never forget.
Using him as a commander was to show trust to him and another reason was because he really had no one else who he could use.
Although Yuanlian World was already suppressed, the situation still wasn't stable and there were many things that could still happen.
Without Zhuang Yu here, it would be tough for Zong Shou to be at ease. As for Lieque, Zong Shou had other uses for him. That place needed an Unparalleled General more than here.
As for conquering the Nine Capital, it was already falling apart, so there wouldn't be much of an intense battle.
Moreover, with the dozens of God Realm Cultivators taking care of Zong Shou and guiding him, he probably won't make any mistakes.
Apart from Zhuang Yu, Lu Wubing was also here in Yuanlian World.
During these few days, if it wasn't for Lu Wubing helping him handle many governance matters, Zong Shou really wouldn't have been able to manage.
Now that he had to leave, all the more reason he had to leave this person here in charge of taking care of Yuanlian World and to perfect the ruling technique.
At this moment, the matter couldn't be considered totally over. He only had some spare time, unlike those previous 10 days where he had to be busy every day. He even had to use the Book of Eon to speed up time to deal with matters.
There was still a period of time away from everything settling down.
Zong Shou could finally slack, walking out from that building and having some time of his own.
In the wee hours of the morning, the Yuanjing Palace started to become noisy.
People passed all about and there were many people who came in and out of the palace.
Zong Shou was only able to take in some fresh air before he felt slightly affected, shaking his head.
”It seems like this Yuanjing Palace is still a little small.”
It was still okay with the Yuanlian World as the central pillar but for the current Great Gan Celestial Dynasty which was able to rule over 60 small and medium-sized worlds and hundreds of different countries, there were many more matters that the Ruler had to handle.
The members of the Celestial Dynasty increased explosively unavoidably and was already at the shocking number of 20,000.
At most, in a few years, he would have to consider expanding or rebuilding the Celestial Dynasty.
He thought back to governance matters and he frowned.
”Pretty much all my time is used on these matters. When will I be able to try to search for the extreme of the Sword Path?”
This was a conflict. Actually, Zong Shou spent much less time compared to the heads of other powers. It was only after Great Gan suddenly expanded by over 10 times did he become slightly busier.
Even then, it was something that Zong Shou couldn't handle.
To become the ruler of millions of rulers, one had to spend much effort in ruling the people under them.
To be invincible in the region, one needed to spend more time studying the martial path and getting one's sword to the extreme.
It seemed like he had to build a complete cabinet in the Celestial Dynasty to help him deal with matters.
