Just as the few people in the air were discussing about Zong Shou.
At the peak of Gantian Mountain, within the Hanyan Palace, Xuanyuan Yiren was leaning on the railing and looking out. Looking down at the foot of the mountain, his eyes were filled with unresolvable sorrow.
Xuanyuan Tong's body was trembling, unable to even speak properly. He only felt that the scene of Zong Shou sitting on the straw mule carriage and walking on the stone streets was so eye-piercing and shocking.
"… To actually humiliate him like that! This Xue family is really despicable! I am useless, unable to use the three-foot sword to wipe out his entire race! "
He was filled with rage, unable to suppress it, filled with regret.
"I only hate that I didn't kill myself! Without the two of us, why would Zong Shou be like this? "
Li Sina's face was green and she didn't speak. However, the feeling in her heart was really complicated.
On the other hand, Qiu Wei was still really calm.
"Don't worry city lord! The ruler naturally has his reasons for doing that! Since the late ruler died, so many huge waves have passed. There is no reason for him to fall in the hands of the Xue family people. I won't hide it from city lord, I don't understand either. This time we should have had a chance of winning. Once the ruler returned to the city, we would have dealt with the Xue family people! However, who knew that the ruler would do that … "
Xuanyuan Yiren was startled, looking over in shock.
Chance of winning? What chance did they have now?
Only to see Qiu Wei frown as he explained, "Based on what I know, the Zong family bloodline has risen to eight tails not long ago. They are also the king race of the fox race. Even if the Zong family has the illusionary heart mirror, they won't be able to control the entire race! "
When he heard this, Xuanyuan Tong could not help but be stunned. After which, he cursed loudly, "Then what is this fellow trying to do?"
Xuanyuan Yiren listened on at the side, the worry in her heart lessening. At this moment, she suddenly turned around and looked at Kong Yao who was standing there like an invisible person.
"Sister Kong, what do you think?"
Kong Yao was at a loss when she heard that. Renbo, Qiu Wei, and some old officials of Gantian Mountain were all here. They were all really knowledgeable people.
Why did Xuanyuan Yiren not ask anyone else but her?
Following which Xuanyuan Yiren said sincerely, "Husband once told me that sister Kong's ability to lead troops might not be as good as Zong Yuan and Qiu Yu, but you are a great commander and can take charge of an area. Zong Yuan can command soldiers, but younger sister Kong can command generals. Your ability can only be shown when you command an army of thousands. Based on my thoughts, sister Kong must have something to teach me! "
At this time, not only was Kong Yao stunned, even Qiu Wei, Renbo, and the others were slightly surprised.
Zong Shou actually thought so highly of this woman? He even defeated Zong Yuan and Qiu Wei?
They didn't believe it in their hearts, but when they thought about the few people beside Zong Shou, they all kept silent.
A few years ago, who would have known that Zong Yuan was an unparalleled general seed? Who would have thought that Chu Xue that brat could actually step into the Heaven Realm?
They originally thought that their ruler wasn't a normal lustful person, even thinking about the Taishang title governor commander.
Thinking about it now, there was probably a deeper meaning behind it.
Kong Yao was also at a loss. Zong Shou actually said that about her?
She didn't expect to be a general talent? Why didn't she know that she had the ability to lead?
She was stunned for a moment before Kong Yao came back to her senses. She took in a deep breath, her expression expressionless.
"Ruler has victory in his hands, so what is there to worry about? We just need to defend ourselves and wait for changes … "
The brows of the people around all rose up. Who knows if Kong Yao was just saying that or if she really meant it.
However, at this moment, it seemed like that was the only thing they could do.
When everyone's gazes all shifted away, Li Qiye's expression changed. Kong Yao sighed inwardly, a bitter smile on her face.
How could he not win? Even if she didn't use her spiritual eyes to look, she could still feel that blazing king energy …
How strong!
These Xue Family people were really asking to die.
However, this Zong Shou was actually willing to risk his life for the lives of the people in the city. As expected from his Saint King aura!
Maybe she really misjudged him …
No, no, the reason why that fellow did that was because he had a high chance of winning.
How was it possible that he was truly helping the people under his rule …
The moment such a thought rose up, Kong Yao heard a clear and melodious cry ring out in the air.
Phoenix cry? How was that possible?
Kong Yao first thought that she was hallucinating. However, when she shook her head, she heard the cry ring out one after another.
Her expression changed slightly, and then a red line opened up at the center of her brows.
Only to see that at the foot of the mountain, on the straw donkey carriage a hundred thousand feet away, there was a vast pure white energy charging into the clouds.
Apart from a giant dragon coiling around it, there was also a seven-colored phoenix circling around it.
Kong Yao felt pain from the piercing light, and she quickly retracted her ability. However, she was startled, unable to come back to her senses for a long time.
In the divination books of the world, the dragon only represented imperial power, but the phoenix not only represented imperial power. It also had a pure and holy intent, an auspicious sign on the same level as the Qilin.
In the Confucian scriptures, there was also a sentence, "The Phoenix Emperor is a spiritual bird that is benevolent."
However, most of the time, people only connected the dragon word with the emperor.
That was because during the cloud desolate era, three generations and below. Many divination masters looked at the dragon energy, but no phoenix appeared!
Today, this Zong Shou was following the will of the heavens, connecting with the heavens?

The straw donkey carriage moved forward, maybe because the people on the road were all furious and were on the verge of exploding. The Xue Family seemed to know that their actions were the opposite of what was expected. After the donkey carriage entered the city and circled two streets, as expected, Xue Mofei gave up on cruising the city. His expression was a little ugly as he signaled for the carriage to head directly to the Zong Family Ancestral Temple.
Zong Shou sat on the straw pile, his expression expressionless. He waited helplessly, so he decided to close his eyes and rest.
However, at this moment, Xiaori suddenly ran out from his sleeves. Then, he was incomparably excited as he propped his head up and sniffed continuously.
It seemed to be really satisfied, closing its eyes in enjoyment.
"What is going on with you?"
Zong Shou didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He wasn't a woman and his body didn't have any fragrance.
The body of a cultivator was pure and clean, giving off fragrance, but it wasn't to the point where one would be intoxicated.
Was it worth Xiaori being so excited?
He was too lazy to care about it, allowing this fellow to sniff around. Zong Shou still sat quietly, closing his eyes to rest.
Although millions of gazes looked over, he acted like he didn't see them.
A moment later, he opened his eyes. Only to see that the Zong Family courtyard was in sight.
There were no normal civilians here, apart from the Xue Family race soldiers. Only the Zong Family people and the various races of the Fox Race.
They all stood on the sides of the streets with cold and abnormal expressions. Many of them looked like they had lost their parents, they couldn't suppress their despair.
However, at this moment, when the carriage that Zong Shou sat on passed, their bodies shook, confusion appearing in their eyes.
Then, all their gazes focused on Zong Shou. Their faces were filled with fanaticism, their eyes were filled with uncontrollable respect and surprise.
Without exception, their auras became even calmer. However, at this moment, they didn't have the anxiousness and despair from before.
In the direction of the Ancestral Temple, a group of people came over. The person at the front was only a few years older than Zong Shou, he looked a little familiar.
Zong Shou took a look at this person and was slightly shocked.
"Zong Yang?"
He remembered a few years ago, during the Gantian Mountain changes. This person's father died in his hands, only this Zong Yang escaped alone. However, that day on Dragon Gathering Mountain, he personally smashed his brain. How did he revive? Was it the Xue Family?
"So Cousin actually still remembers me! A few years ago, when Brother Shou killed me, you didn't expect that you would have such a day. "
Zong Yang rode his horse to the side of the carriage, looking deeply at Zong Shou, his eyes filled with venom. Then, he laughed, "However, from today onwards, my surname isn't Zong anymore. You should call me Xueyang. His highness allowed the few of us to become branch bloodlines of the Xue Family! "
Behind Zong Yang stood a few people, their expressions were either cold or mocking.
Zong Shou recognized them all. Without exception, they were all direct bloodline members of the Zong Family.
"Xue Family? Xueyang, what a nice name. Speaking of which, the few of you have already changed the bloodline of the Xue Family? "
Seeing Zong Yang smile, there was a hint of pride in his expression. Zong Shou instantly understood. He knew that his Gantian Mountain shouldn't have been taken advantage of by the Xue Family so easily.
As expected, there was a weakness within his own family.
However, probably because of changing bloodlines, these few people didn't have a bloodline upgrade because of him.
To the Xue Family, he really didn't know if it was a blessing or a curse …
This Xueyang originally wanted to mock a few more words, but then he saw Xue Mofei look over coldly.
Only then did he remember that the Xue Family wanted to try to force Zong Shou to surrender before they had no choice.
He smiled and retracted his hatred, "Actually Cousin doesn't need to worry. His highness is magnanimous and can accept everything. As long as you are willing to surrender and become his slave, not only can you keep your life, that Queen Xuanyuan will also be fine … "
Zong Shou couldn't help but laugh, too lazy to speak.
Xueyang didn't say anything more, starting a set of etiquette with the few people behind him.
This was the etiquette of welcoming the ruler and worshipping the ancestors, and it actually looked like it.
The carriage continued forwards. In just a moment, it was in front of the ancestral hall.
The gates were already opened, and from thousands of feet away, one could see the situation within.
Zong Shou sat on the carriage, looking out towards the hall.
Then, he saw an alluring woman sitting in the main seat in the center.
Beside her was a person tied up in chains, it was Zong Gang. When he saw Zong Shou, he was first startled, then he panicked and then laughed out loud.
Zong Shou smiled, looking carefully at the woman in the hall.
… As expected from the Eight Tail Xue Family, her looks were even better than Zhao Yanran.
In this world, it was the first time he saw someone who could beat that crazy woman in terms of looks.
He finally met the head of the Xue Family. It was time for this farce to end.
The moment such a thought rose up, he heard Xue Mofei say emotionlessly, "Ruler please get off the carriage and pay respects to her highness!"
The moment he said that, Zong Shou gave out a bright smile. (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.)
