Han Nishui's expression was so dark and sunken that water was about to drip out.
Before he came, be it himself or the elders in the sect, they all thought that with the strength of Lingyun Sect and Mysterious Cloud Spirit Sect, they would be able to suppress Zong Shou and force him to take a step back.
However, when he came, it was such a situation. This Zong Shou was actually so stubborn!
What made him even more annoyed was that the 2 of them didn't live up to expectations. At such a crucial moment, such a change occurred.
"It's good that they aren't willing to submit …"
Zong Shou didn't care, sitting on the soft couch. His eyes looked calm but there was a bit of rage gathering at the depths of his eyes.
What he hated the most in his life was being threatened by others.
"Then there is another choice, to break your own arm! No, I changed my mind, half a province isn't enough. How about the 2 of you spit out a province each? For Longze and Fuyao, the time limit will be reduced to 3 years. I will be able to answer to my subordinates … "
Before he finished, Xiong Ba's eyes opened wide in rage, saying solemnly, "F * * * your grandmother! Zong Shou, you are asking for a mile when we give you an inch! Do you really want to force us to fight to the death before you are willing to stop? At most, I, Xiong Ba, will perish together with you … "
When Zong Shou heard that, he wasn't angry, scoffing slightly, "Uncle Qiu, tell this Xiong Ba. My Gantian Mountain will flatten Taoyun City and withdraw from the west. How many soldiers can we move? "
Qiu Wei smiled, his chin slightly raised, "Not counting the support troops, there are 600 thousand war elites! The subordinate cities have troops of our Gantian Mountain cavalry standard, there should be a million of them … "
"Only 600 thousand? That's too little! "
Zong Shou felt that it was too little, continuing to ask, "Where are the Xuan Mountain City reinforcements?"
"Ruler, Xuan Mountain City's 540 thousand troops are rushing over!"
This time the one who replied was Hu Qianqiu, his voice was majestic and filled with energy, "With Xuan Mountain City general Hai Tianyuan personally leading, in 3 days they will cross Ruohai Straits!"
"Then within this Weining Province, how many city and country lords are communicating with our Gantian Mountain?"
Hu Qianqiu and Qiu Wei exchanged glances. They weren't able to grasp the exact numbers. Thirty or forty?
He only knew that even if the surrounding cities didn't change sides on the spot, most of them secretly dispatched envoys to leave a way out for themselves.
However, should he really tell these two about this?
Finally, it was Ruoshui who said softly, "Including Shengde Province, there are 49 cities. Another 50 cities have already sent messengers to Ancient Crane City. "
Only then did Zong Shou smile and look towards Xiong Ba, "Your troops aren't as strong as mine and you won't be able to defend this Huling Hill. Since that's the case, what qualifications do the two of you have to fight me to the death? What right do you have to die together with me? Xiong Ba, whose grandma are you trying to f * ck? How dare you! "
His voice was calm, but it seemed to be mixed with ancient ice. Every sentence was extremely heavy, smashing Xiong Ba's mind and causing him to be stunned.
He wanted to open his mouth to retort several times, but he felt speechless.
He knew what Qiu Wei and the others were talking about. Wasn't that why he thought about coming over and proactively making peace with Zong Shou?
However, at that time, Gushan City was still there and this Huling Hill defense line was still as stable as a rock. He was also filled with confidence to be able to block the attacks of Gantian Mountain for half a year here!
In the next instance, he seemed to have thought about something. Xiong Ba looked towards Han Nishui with a lost and pleading gaze.
The latter's brows furrowed slightly, suppressing the rage in his chest as he opened his mouth once more, "Your highness Zong Shou, where it is possible to let people off, why do you have to go overboard? This peace talk was agreed upon by the various sects of our Cloud Continent. City lord Zong, do you really want to be enemies with us? "
Zong Shou burst out into a laugh. If it was before, the threat was just hidden. However, at this moment, all the veil was ripped off, totally naked.
"Where it is possible to let people off, we should let them off? Haha, then what did my Gantian Mountain spies do? What does it have to do with your sects? You all want to wipe them all out? "
Seeing Han Nishui hold his breath, Zong Shou's words were like knives as they sliced over, "Even if you all use such underhanded methods to make my Gantian Mountain take a step back, are you even worthy?"
Han Nishui only felt that the vital energy in his body was flowing backwards, throbbing with pain. At this moment. He could only forcefully suppress it, raising his hands and bowing, "Your highness misunderstood, my Mysterious Cloud Spirit Sect didn't participate in this matter …"
"Didn't participate? That means you silently agreed. Speaking of which, who cares if you all participated or not, I have already decided. What can you do to me? "
Zong Shou laughed coldly. Actually, he was the most unreasonable person in the world.
"The so-called meeting of the sects probably doesn't include the Demon Sect, Confucian Faction, Buddhist Faction, and also doesn't include the Kenzō Sect Cang Shengdao, right? Oh, I can't be unreasonable, I have to use virtue to win you over! How about this, as long as you call out the person who killed my men, I will take half a province less, that is fair enough … "
Han Nishui's face was as red as blood, but at this moment he couldn't make any sound. The vital energy in his body was flowing backwards, becoming stronger and stronger. A depression was like a hard brick blocking his chest. Chu Xue and Ruoshui looked at their master in a different light. They didn't expect that when Zong Shou got angry, his mouth would be so sharp. He was really vicious and direct at his weakness.
"Most importantly, your sects already see me, Zong Shou, as an enemy. Psychic Island even didn't mind breaking their own laws because of this. What right do you have to think that I will give you face? Do you really think you are putting gold on your face? If you don't use your ascended realm, how much strength do you have to interfere in this battle? Aren't you overestimating yourself? "
As he said that, the rage in Zong Shou's chest calmed down slightly, "So people like you scram as far away as you can. Don't be an eyesore here. If you have any methods, just use them. I will receive them. I really want to see what tricks you all can play … "
Han Nishui was startled, looking at Zong Shou in a daze.
… It shouldn't be like this. Didn't they force such a strong person like Zong Weiran to flee into the oblivion cloud ocean?
Why was this Zong Shou not only not forced to submit, but instead caused Gantian Mountain's strength to increase? Causing him, Han Nishui, and Mysterious Cloud Spirit Sect to lose all their face?
Then, he suddenly understood. That Zong Weiran had the weakness of having already advanced to the ascended realm.
However, this Zong Shou was not only as smart as his father, but till date, he still hadn't found his true weakness …
His emotions slowly calmed down, but the stuffy feeling in his chest didn't decrease, instead it increased.
His brows tightly furrowed as he entered deep thought. Numerous calculations, thinking about it, but he was still unable to find a way to break the situation. He couldn't even find a single chip that could force Zong Shou to give in.
Feng Nu looked on silently. After a long while, he reached out with his hand, taking the lightning winged sword. He looked at Zong Shou, "Let's agree on 3 years. My Yunxia Mountain will only give up half a province! "
After he said that, the long sword slashed towards his left arm. Where the long sword landed, blood spurted, and a broken arm fell to the ground.
Then, he directly tossed the sword aside, turning around and not even turning his head to leave.
Xiong Ba's face was alternating between green and white. Then, he grabbed the lightning winged sword that was already dyed in blood.
"Blazing Flame Mountain will also give up half a province of Fuyao!"
The sword light rose up, and that strong left arm instantly broke out from his body. Following which, Xiong Ba tossed the sword, and with a "Duo" sound, it pinned onto Zong Shou's carriage, shaking non-stop.
"This time, I, Xiong Ba, have lost! I admit defeat, and I don't have the face to take up the position of Blazing Flame Mountain city lord. 3 years later, your highness's opponent won't be me. My Yu 'er will definitely make you Zong Shou die without a burial place! "
After he said that, Xiong Ba wasn't willing to stay any longer. He whipped his horse, leading the 5 thousand Blazing Flame Mountain iron cavalry to gallop away, bringing with them a cloud of dust.
Zong Shou's brows furrowed, Yu 'er? That princess Xuan Yu who was made the heir of Blazing Flame Mountain? Interesting!
In the next moment, he turned his eyes towards Han Nishui. At this moment, not only did Feng Nu and Xiong Ba leave. Even the Yunxia Mountain soldiers on the stone rampart in the distance were rapidly retreating.
In front of the 170 thousand troops, only this person stood alone ten thousand feet away.
Han Nishui's face was really ugly. Feng Nu and Xiong Ba didn't wait for him to make a decision before they cut off their arms. It was like 2 slaps viciously landing on his face.
Without a doubt, he had thought it through. Even with the help of the Cloud Continent sects, he wouldn't be able to turn the situation around.
Why not cut off one of his arms before Zong Shou raised even harsher conditions?
Consecutively taking in a few deep breaths, Han Nishui was still unable to calm himself down. In the end, he looked coldly at Zong Shou, "Your highness has good methods. I will remember this humiliation in my heart, and the Mysterious Cloud Spirit Sect won't forget about it. Your highness, please take care of yourself … "
After he finished, he waved his sleeves, "You are really unreasonable!"
He rose up on his sword once more, bringing with him a ball of light as he rose into the sky. However, just as he charged up 100 feet, he heard Zong Shou speak once more, "I will have to trouble you to pass a message to those people. This grievance, I, Zong Shou, will make all of you pay for it! Didn't you all set your eyes on the Yin Dragon Canyon? If all the sects that participated in this matter don't hand over the culprits. I, Zong Shou, will make sure you all don't even dare to think about touching a single Yin Dragon Canyon … "
Han Nishui's speed paused slightly before he sped up once more. In just a moment, he disappeared into the horizon.
Hu Qianqiu laughed out, "Following the ruler feels even better than when the previous ruler was here! These large sects are used to ordering people around. They really think that our Gantian Mountain has to give them face. "
Qiu Wei nodded his head slightly, "That should be the case. Anyways, whether or not they turn on us. Those Donglin sects won't sit still and watch our Gantian Mountain become stronger. With that, we have less to worry about … "
The surrounding Xuanwu ancestors all exchanged glances with one another and smiled. Such scenes of shrines and spiritual houses being humiliated were rare.
Zong Shou himself felt really carefree. The internal qi and soul power in his body seemed to be affected by this and became unusually active.
Suddenly, his heart moved slightly. He sunk his thoughts into his soul ocean to try to form those few true spiritual charms. This time it was really quick, in just a moment he completed it.
Then, that whirlpool soul ocean started to spin intensely. As expected, the hundreds of True Spiritual Talismans started to form on their own. However, this time they were at the center of the whirlpool and not above it.
When the swallow and purify talismans slowly formed, they seemed to have become the center of the whirlpool.
Zong Shou also comprehended something and knew that he had stepped into the 6th stage of the Return to Sun realm! (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.)
