Xuanyuan Yiren Zong Shou's face was ashen white, fresh blood seeping down from the corner of his lips.
Although she knew that Zong Shou's soul was weak and wasn't injured and that he just needed to slightly recover, her heart still felt pained. She walked to the side of Zong Shou, frowning as she took his pulse.
"I am fine!"
Zong Shou smiled, patting Xuanyuan Yiren's hand to comfort her. Then, he looked at the officials with a fake smile.
"Something unexpected happened, I have made you all worried!"
Looking at the sky outside, it was already deep into the night. Zong Shou's eyes were filled with a smile, "However, there must be another reason why all of you came here today, right? What is the reason for all of you to come here? "
Although he had gone through dozens of days and nights in that illusion. But in the real world, it would only take four or five days.
Xuanyuan Yiren was a woman who knew the severity of the matter. For the ruler being trapped in the Avici Throne, at most she would only tell 3-5 people who could help and definitely not let everyone know.
There should be another reason why all of them came here.
As for the reason, Zong Shou asked even though he already knew the answer.
Renbo raised his eyelids and sized up Zong Shou. The main reason was to observe Xuanyuan Yiren's expression. Seeing that although this Queen was sad, her worry had lessened, only then did he relax.
"Ruler's life concerns the safety of our Gantian Mountain. In the future, when you do things, you must be really careful! If there are any accidents, how will we have the face to meet the late ruler? "
Actually, with the current Gantian Mountain system, it didn't matter whether Zong Shou was here or not.
As long as the two of them could leave one or two heirs for Gantian Mountain to inherit the throne, it would be okay.
There was also the spiritual wave which needed the prestige of this highness to deal with.
Once all these things ended, what would he do with Zong Shou? He could run wherever he wanted.
He, Ren Bo, would not be worried about this guy. Every time there was an unforeseen event, it would make people's hearts jump.
However, Xuanyuan Yiren and Zong Shou were newlyweds and he heard that they were working hard at night, so it wasn't good for him to rush them.
At this moment, everyone in the hall looked towards him in anticipation. Renbo frowned and then took out a list.
"Six hundred Class 7 Energy-Destroying Crossbows and forty-eight Class 9 Energy-Destroying Crossbows. If Kongqi Sect can craft magical artifacts and bows, we can purchase them. Apart from that, the 6 spaceships we got from the Xue family also needs to be repaired. We need to change the spiritual formations and purchase 40 kilograms of's and to strengthen the ship's body. Is this the purchase list that the ruler sent to the cabinet five days ago? "
"That's right!"
Zong Shou replied expressionlessly, not making a sound. He took a close look at those 6 spaceships. The basic spiritual formations and the core of the spaceships were perfectly fine and could travel through space, saving him the effort of rebuilding the spaceships.
However, out of the 6 spaceships, apart from Xue Xuan's ship which was slightly more complete due to the Xue Family people living in it, the other few were in a terrible state.
Who knows how many decades it had been since they were repaired. The ship body was broken and close to breaking into pieces. It was already a miracle that it wasn't destroyed by the vast spiritual energy in the world river.
Apart from that, the Xue Family probably wanted to open up space within the ship to accommodate their people.
The outer shell of the ship was pretty much like thin paper. As long as it was a grade 9 cultivator, one bucket would break it.
The weapons they were equipped with could be considered strong bows and crossbows in the Cloud World. However, if they were used to deal with Spirit Realm and Celestial Realm beasts in the world river, they were far from enough.
If it was him, he wouldn't dare to let this fleet continue to take the risk to stay in the world river.
This was why after succeeding, Zong Shou was thinking about how to strengthen the few spaceships.
Kongqi Sect's energy destroying crossbows were naturally his first choice. Apart from using up a lot of energy, Power wasn't weak at all.
It was most suitable to fight in the world river where spiritual energy was extremely abundant.
Actually, if he didn't consider that the current Gantian Mountain was too poor. It would be ideal to change them all to magical artifact level bows.
As for the black xuan iron, it was a grade 5 Huang Grade spiritual metal. Although its grade was low, it had a huge quantity. A thick layer, thirty to fifty feet thick ship body along with spiritual formation buffs, even magical artifact level weapons wouldn't be able to pierce through it.
As for the ocean pattern cinnabar, it was a special spiritual material produced in the polar regions of the north. It was easy to break with a pinch, but once it was added into other spiritual metals, it could raise the quality of the metal by two to three grades.
However, there was a similarity between these two things. Which was that it was expensive! It was so expensive that it made one's heart hurt. Even if Gantian Mountain used the strength of a country, they would have to go bankrupt to buy it.
It was estimated that after these modifications were completed, one spaceship would be able to fit 30 thousand people.
They didn't need to fear spirit realm beasts. As for celestial realm beasts, if there was a suitable general to lead them, they could escape.
However, this purchase list would probably force someone to spit out blood.
As expected, in the next moment, they heard the sound of Renbo grinding his teeth.
"I don't know why we need to purchase these things!"
His voice was filled with rage. Renbo seemed to be forcefully suppressing it, unwilling to argue with Zong Shou at this moment. He took out another yellow scroll and held it in front of him.
"The ruler has other orders for our Donglin City troops to be disbanded within half a year. All elites above Rank 3 must be carefully selected and changed to be directly under the command of the Emperor. Our Gantian Mountain will expand to 400 army towns. I have no objections, but isn't this number a little too little? "
When Zong Shou heard that, he swept the people in the hall. Following which he smiled, "I think all of you already know about the spiritual wave matter?"
Everyone didn't finish, which was a silent agreement. It was because they knew that the many barriers outside of the world would be broken under the pressure of the spiritual wave. There might be a repeat of the ancient cloud desolate era when alien races invaded the cloud world. This was why they were worried that the military strength was too low.
It was far from enough to suppress Donglin Cloud Continent, there was still some excess. However, if they were to face the alien races of other worlds, it was far from enough.
"Within 3 years, I will use 100 thousand grade 7 mind stones to purchase cultivation increasing pills from Pill Fountain Sect and the various pill refiners of Donglin."
Seeing everyone in front of him startled, filled with shock, Zong Shou gave out a self-mocking laugh, "I hope that within 3 years, under my Gantian Mountain rule, we can have 200 thousand xiantians …"
As for the spirit masters with harsher cultivation requirements, he didn't ask for much, just 30 thousand would be thankful.
Actually, this number was more or less enough for Donglin Cloud Continent.
However, Zong Shou didn't dare to use most of them. If they weren't loyal, even if he recruited them, they wouldn't be able to help Gantian Mountain.
Renbo's breathing stopped, filled with fear and shock.
Only now did he know that Zong Shou was actually so afraid of the spiritual wave a few years later and the alien races of other worlds! (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.)
