"Uncle Chai is righteous. Even if he won't help us, he won't help that piece of trash. He is just unhappy with my marriage with the Xue family. In the future, as long as I give him an explanation, he will naturally understand. "
Zong Shi's tone was still confident and overbearing. He walked down from the steps with his hands behind his back.
Looking at the majestic surroundings as well as the throne behind him, he suddenly felt emotional, "Actually, the person I respect the most is the late ruler. That year he started from scratch and in just 10 years he established such foundations and ruled the west of Donglin Cloud Continent. Unfortunately, he died before his ambitions were realized. I, Zong Shi, took over. I will inherit the ruler's ambition and sweep Donglin! "
Hearing those words, Zong Ming nodded his head slightly, using his hand to stroke his beard, "The late ruler has done a lot for our sky fox Zong family. Which is why although he snatched the race leader position of our Zong family direct bloodline, I have never been annoyed with him. However, be it the monster king position or the Zong family race leader position. In the end, it has to be in the hands of our Zong family direct bloodline! This is the will of the heavens … "
Rage surged in Zong Shiyuan's eyes. However, for some reason, he suppressed it and didn't explode. He looked fearfully at Xue Moyan who was smiling but not smiling.
Ling Fakong frowned once more, suppressing his unhappiness, "I don't care about all this. I only want to ask that Zong Shou prince, how are you going to deal with him?"
Zong Shi's expression didn't change, turning around and exchanging glances with Ling Fakong, "Uncle Ling, if Zong Shou ascends to the monster king position, will he let me live?"
Seeing his expression change, Zong Shi shook his head, "Of course, I still remember the promise I made to you. As long as he is well behaved, I won't kill him. At worst, I will just lock him up. If he is willing to give up his position, I can even let him leave Donglin. However, if he still has any thoughts, I, Zong Shi, will not show mercy. "
Only then did Ling Fakong relax, slightly nodding his head, "It is good that you remember. I only hope that you can keep your promise in the future!"
Zong Shi smiled, a cold intent flashed across his eyes. He was still looking out of the hall with his hands behind his back.
After today, the Gantian Mountain Monster King position would be in his hands! He had millions of soldiers in his hands, and his power was overwhelming!
No one in this world could take it away from him!
Within the hall, Zong Ming looked at Zong Shi's back view with satisfaction.
It was estimated that after today, the cauldron would be settled.
The descendants of the Zong family's direct line of descent were indeed extraordinary. Even Zong Yang wasn't bad.
What was that Zong Weiran? He could only be arrogant for a while.
※ ※ ※
It was still 10,000 feet away from the main peak of Gantian Mountain, on that stone platform.
Hu Qianqiu walked back from afar with a mocking look on his face. When he came to the side of Qiu Wei, his voice was solemn, "Why don't you guess what the messenger that Zong Shi sent over said to me?"
Seeing Qiu Wei's stunned expression, he revealed a look of curiosity. Hu Qianqiu laughed coldly, the disdain on his face getting thicker and thicker, "He said that if the 2 of us aren't willing to go over to see him, he will burn, kill, and rob in Gantian Mountain City. Simply put, if we don't let him be the banker and win money, he will flip the table. He really hit the nail on the head, even more vicious than his dead father … "
Qiu Wei's steel-like teeth instantly started to chatter. The silver-white mace that he held with both hands actually pressed down the stone ground by several feet in that instant.
Following which he looked towards Hu Qianqiu worriedly. Actually, it wasn't that he didn't expect this. What he was most worried about was that Hu Qianqiu would waver because of this.
Gantian Mountain City gathered all the monster race members. The moment Zong Shi acted viciously, they would suffer heavy losses.
With this overlord duke's personality, he would most probably hesitate to attack.
"That wolf cub is indeed vicious, but he is also very smart. I, Hu Qianqiu, have been seen through by that fellow! "
As he said that, he saw that Qiu Wei's eyes were filled with wariness. Hu Qianqiu couldn't help but roll his eyes speechlessly, "Don't worry! If it was half a year ago, I might have fallen into his trap and be threatened by him. But today, even if he wants to start a war and kill all the old and weak in the city, I won't go over. At most, I will go all out with him … "
This time Qiu Wei was really shocked. He looked closely at Hu Qianqiu's face, not missing out on any of his expression and changes in his eyes. Only when he stared at him till he felt his hair stand did he let him go.
"That's weird! Brother Hu, this doesn't seem like your personality. Forgive me for being direct, but I really don't understand why you don't want to see that Zong Shi. "
"It doesn't seem like it!"
Hu Qianqiu gave a self-mocking laugh, following which he looked towards the sky with an expression like he was on a pilgrimage, "As for the reason, it is because I know. If I follow what Zong Shi wants, not only will I let the ruler down. In the future, my Gantian Mountain will also face a calamity. Although that prince doesn't seem to have much ambition. However, looking at his situation, he won't be willing to let the ruler's foundations be stolen by others. The one who will win in the end will definitely be the prince. "
Qiu Wei couldn't help but squint. This was the 4th time Hu Qianqiu mentioned the prince. His tone was filled with anticipation and confidence.
What was this fellow trying to do?
"Even if I say it, you won't believe me!"
Hu Qianqiu turned his head, his face solemn and serious, "Half a year ago, I met the prince. His sword path is one with the spirit, and he won a sword against me at the xiantian realm. His spiritual cultivation has reached the night wandering realm. He is a rare talent in the world! Even if he can't inherit Gantian Mountain, with his ability, he might be able to create a foundation better than Gantian Mountain City. "
Qiu Wei's brows were tightly furrowed. Looking closely at Hu Qianqiu's expression, it didn't seem like he was faking it. After a short while, his brows furrowed, "Overlord duke, are you sure you aren't joking? Or did you eat the wrong medicine? Night wandering realm, 14 years old and able to travel at night. Even in shrines and sects, there are only 10 of them. Based on what I know. The prince has only been in Linhai College for 3 years. Even if you are joking, there should be a limit. I know you have high hopes for the prince and are also disappointed. However, he is still young. In the future, if we can invite a skilled pill master, he might have a chance to cultivate. "
Hu Qianqiu was startled, and then he shrugged his shoulders helplessly. He thought to himself, 'See? Even if I tell Qiu Wei, this guy won't believe me.'
Those old fellows in his race were like that, even his old friend Chai Yuan was the same.
If he said it to Zong Shi and the others, they would laugh their heads off.
Only by letting those fellows personally taste the cold glow of the prince's sword could they wake up and remember it deeply.
Who knows how the person beside him would react at that time?
Thinking about that, Hu Qianqiu's lips couldn't help but twitch, suppressing the urge to laugh. It was obvious on his face.
He remembered that the ruler had taught him to not show his emotions and to be a shrewd person. Hu Qianqiu had always remembered that. However, at this time, he felt that it was exceptionally tough.
※ ※ ※
50 miles of distance, even with the speed of the Windrider foals, they only used an hour.
However, this time it wasn't just 2 thousand cavalry. Within the Zhenshan Pass, apart from the infantry, there were 3 thousand elite cavalry. Apart from that, there were also thousands of war horses, personally chosen by Hu Zhongyuan, Zong Gang, and Zong Yuan to follow on horseback.
On the plains below Gantian Mountain, close to 10 thousand people rode on war horses, majestically galloping towards the east of Gantian Mountain.
The black fox iron cavalry and mysterious armor wind dragon cavalry were filled with fighting spirit. The elites selected from the Zhenshan Pass were even more eager to fight. Their eyes were blazing with fire. They wanted to fight right away to wash away the humiliation and the name of betraying their master.
30 minutes later, Zong Shou could see the few lights on the peak of Gantian Mountain.
First, he was shocked at the size of Gantian Mountain. They actually dug out the entire 10 thousand feet mountain to make a city. The area was 60-70 miles wide, the houses within were connected. From the peak of Gantian Mountain, one could look down on the entire Gantian plains.
The city walls were majestic to the extreme. The city walls were six hundred feet high, and there was a four-armed giant crossbow placed every hundred feet.
However, this giant city was deathly silent. There were very few places on the mountain with lights. The foot of the mountain was blocked by the city walls and one was unable to see what was going on.
Looking out from afar, there were numerous essence and vengeful energies charging into the sky. Just one look and one felt terrified.
Compared to the 400 thousand alliance army at the Ruohai straits, it was several times stronger!
"What a majestic city!"
Zong Shou sucked in a cold breath. In his memory 4 years ago, when he left Gantian Mountain, this city wasn't so majestic.
Just this City Protecting Spiritual Array that covered an area of sixty to seventy miles was already hard to imagine.
"To build this city, our Gantian Mountain spent 4 years of our income! This is why it is so majestic. Not only are there 8 million monster race, but there are also 6 million humans. There are also numerous merchants, close to 18 million people. Actually, the ruler didn't want to build the city. He said that when we needed to defend it, it would be too close to destruction. Due to my father and the others persuading us, we had no choice but to spend a lot of money to build the formation to protect the old and weak. Only a year ago was it built. "
Hu Zhongyuan explained proudly beside Zong Shou. Following which he smiled, "Unfortunately, the formation wasn't opened. If not, it would be even more majestic. "
Zong Shou curled his lips. If the formation was opened, then he wouldn't have any chance. The best method would be to immediately turn around and leave.
However, thinking about it, with Hu Qianqiu and Qiu Wei's ability, they should be able to do that.
Since the formation wasn't opened, then he had a 99% chance of winning.
If not for him worrying about his image and knowing that he had to be careful in this battle, Zong Shou would have laughed out loud with his hands on his waist. With a slight thought, Zong Shou imitated the image of the heroes in TV dramas, pointing the horsewhip forward. His expression was really dark and sunken, giving off a domineering aura, "Generals, who can bring me the head of this Dongcheng lieutenant …"
The surroundings were instantly silent. After a long while, some sweat appeared on Zong Shou's head. The first time he acted cool, why was there an awkward silence? (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
