990 Looking At Absolute Beginning Again (1/2)
Yuanlian and the surrounding 47 worlds were all occupied. This happened along with Kui Xuan leading the troops to ferociously attack the Nine Capital Celestial Dynasty.
Using the far superior speeds of the Taiyi God Lightning Ships and the Cold Crystal Shadow Blade Ships, in just 20 days, they took down 26 worlds and even two medium-sized worlds.
However, at this moment, the surrounding powers all came to their senses. All of them started to exert pressure onto Great Gan and shift all their troops to their borders.
They wanted to work together to swiftly split up the remaining pieces of the Nine Capital Celestial Dynasty.
Kui Xuan had too few troops and helplessly he had to stop and turn to defense.
Actually, he was also unable to take down anymore. This part of the Nine Capital Celestial Dynasty was actually relatively far away from the Yuanlian World and it wasn't connected.
He also had to cross swords and conflict with the other powers.
How to rule it was a problem and how to defend it was even an even bigger issue.
It was easy to occupy it but being able to keep it was another issue.
Zong Shou was extremely pleased with Kui Xuan's performance, pulling back when the victory was already obtained.
At this moment, adding up all of Great Gan land, it had five medium-sized worlds and 69 small-sized worlds, slowly getting up to scale.
Among which the portion which was closest to Yuanlian was a rare rich area.
That person in the previous life used the astonishing wealth here to rise up.
Using just a few years to digest, he would be able to gather up an abundance of country power.
What made Zong Shou the happiest about was the Spiritual Blacksmiths from Nine Capital Saint Dynasty.
Yi Lingsu's family really had a huge influence. Through this person's persuasion, close to 70% of them were willing to head towards Yuanlian.
The number of Cold Crystal Shadow Blade Ships was also more than expected; there were a total of 16 of them.
However, these ships didn't have the Nine Capital Extreme Blade Warriors on them, so their value greatly decreased.
The ships themselves still possessed Peak Celestial Realm strength and their speed exceeded normal ships by several times, so they were still really valuable.
Normal Celestial Dynasties and cultivation guilds would send one person to be the ruler of a world.
Apart from being in charge of defenses, they would have to hand over a portion of the production.
When one's cultivation reached God Realm, one normally didn't bother with such matters as they didn't want to get themselves involved with Cause and Effect.
Thus, normally these world rulers were chosen from Intermediate Celestial Realm Cultivators.
Based on the system that Lu Wubing and Zong Shou had discussed and decided on, each world would be split into many countries. They would have three to five spots to head over to Yuanlian World to enter the Meeting Hall.
There would be one Guard and two deputies who wouldn't manage governance matters. They would just be in charge of recruiting and training cultivators in the world.
There would be an Inspector-General and an advisor. As for other roles, there wasn't a set amount. Apart from monitoring, they would be in charge of collecting taxes, solving the conflicts of the countries and sects as well as raise various kinds of herbs of Spiritual Beasts. They would also help to develop and improve the Spiritual Veins.
The latter roles were the more important ones. Each country would handle their own governance matters on their own.
Only when the Country Ruler lost his mind or became irresponsible, incurring the rage of his people would Great Gan step in and do its job as a Celestial Dynasty.
Next would be the Trade Official, this was a hugely important job that was in charge of all trading matters.
The country policies seemed really loose, but they were actually still really good at collecting resources. It was just that it seemed much gentler which was why there wasn't much resistance from the new land. The people of the various worlds were all in disbelief and really careful, probing out Great Gan.
At this point the surrounding situation started to calm down. Xuanling Guild, Jijue Celestial Dynasty, and Seven Saint Alliance which were connected by land either suffered heavy losses or were in deep troubles themselves. As such, they weren't able to do anything about the rise of Great Gan.
Logically speaking, there were still many things that needed to be done. Things like expanding the Dao Soldiers, increasing troops, recruiting cultivators, etc.
However, Zong Shou didn't bother anymore and he tossed aside all the matters.
Coincidentally, at this moment, Shi Ruolan had brought the nine Taiyi God Lightning Ships back to the Cloud World.
The troops scattered and sent all around were all slowly called back bit by bit.
He roughly gathered up 10,000 Big Dipper Sword Soldiers, 3,000 Black Fox Iron Cavalry, and a set of Source Ocean Big Dipper Imperial Demon Slaying Sword Formation.
Zong Shou directly set off and left Yuanlian World.
What he got from the previous battle also included Liu Muchen's ship.
Not only was it luxurious and grand, but it was also really practical. It was no slower than any Celestial Grade item and after all it was a warship.
Its combat strength could compare to five to six Earth Grade warships added together.
Naturally, its value couldn't be compared to the Royal Demon God Shuttle, but in terms of comfort, it was several times better.
This time, Zong Shou was going to follow the army and as such he wasn't in a rush. He decided to shift to this ship which he renamed Gantian, using it as a flagship.
Aokun and Aoyi were on the same boat.
”Zong Shou, are you really going to do that dumb thing? 3,000 years of lifespan, this isn't a joke!”
Within the cultivation room, Zong Shou sat alone in the middle. Aokun and Aoyi were both to one side.
Aoyi's face was expressionless. She didn't have much of a relationship with Zong Shou and she was only helping him because of Aokun.
Aokun owed Zong Shou too much and she knew that. As such, no matter what happened to Zong Shou, she would definitely help him and wouldn't say much about it.
Everything was Zong Shou's choice alone and she didn't need to instruct him.
Aokun's face seemed unhappy.
