Piercing pain?
Feeling the burning sensation in his eyes, Kong Rui was slightly stunned. He only felt that the glow was really eye-catching.
Looking closely, it was a white glow, pure and flawless, without any other colors.
White energy?
How was that possible? A normal Ruler of a country. Countries similar to Gantian Mountain were usually a light yellow color.
If the country was weak or the Ruler was useless, it would be a grey-black color. Why was it pure white here?
His mind instinctively flashed back to those divination classics passed down from the ancient times.
At that moment, Kong Rui only felt that his mind was in a mess.
This Zong Shou wasn't a stupid Ruler like the Confucians said, he wasn't a preposterous Ruler but a Saint King?
He must have remembered wrongly! Or perhaps those algebra classics were wrong in the first place …
Just as he was startled, Kong Rui suddenly felt that the light was getting brighter and brighter.
In the end, the dragon shadow in the distance roared out once more. Kong Rui instantly cried out in pain, his right eye closing. A thread of fresh blood flowed down from his eyelids.
As for the Wen King Divination Money, it broke free from his control again. However, this time it didn't fly in that direction. Like it had used up all its strength, it fell to the ground.
The few Kong Family servants and Gantian Mountain Martial Masters all panicked when they saw that, not knowing what to do. The former was worried about their Master's injuries while the latter was worried that Kong Rui was injured on the way to Gantian Mountain. Would the higher-ups punish him?
As for Kong Rui himself, he was like a statue. His body stood upright, totally lost as he stood on the spot.
He muttered to himself, his voice was so soft that it couldn't be heard. If one listened carefully, there was only one sentence: True King Energy can't be underestimated!
At the same time, Xiaori who was running swiftly in Hanyan Palace suddenly felt his hair stand on end. A fierce glow flashed in his eyes as he looked towards the northwest.
A layer of red flames wrapped around his body. Like he felt threatened, his body crouched low, ready to pounce over at any moment.
Then, he shook his head weirdly. Why was this aura so familiar? Moreover, it was disappearing?
Puzzled, Xiaori sniffed. Just as he was about to chase after his trail, his eyes suddenly caught sight of a golden light in front of him.
He immediately forgot about everything else. With the threat gone, he couldn't be bothered to look for the root of the problem. He chased after Xiao Jin's figure again.

The moment he came down from the small hill, Kong Rui still felt that his mind was in a daze.
When the carriage moved forward once more and headed towards the Gantian Mountain City gate. In the carriage, Kong Rui took out all the algebra books from his Qiankun Bag as if he had gone mad.
He flipped through the books one by one, and when he found the content he was looking for, he threw it away.
Half a quarter of an hour later, Kong Rui sat down weakly beside the soft couch. His uninjured left eye was filled with blood veins.
The cries of dragons and phoenixes came from the Saint King! After three generations, they disappeared from the world!
In almost all of the physiognomy books, the results were the same. If it was just a one-sided statement, then it would be fine.
However, without exception, all of these classics were recorded in such a way. Moreover, the people who wrote these books all had deep attainments in the study of fate, people who left their names in history.
What ability did he have to dare to question the classics of these seniors? However, what he saw today was just too inconceivable.
Could it be that the great Confucians of Great Shang were wrong? However, the Confucians had ruled for ten thousand years and created many prosperous eras, so how could they be wrong?
Kong Rui's fists loosened and tightened, tightened and loosened.
Then, he thought about what did this matter have to do with him? He came to Gantian Mountain to see if Yao 'er was doing well. Whether or not she was able to safely pass the death tribulation in twenty years.
This Gantian Mountain had a vast white energy and didn't show signs of dying. Logically speaking, he could temporarily be at ease.
However, at this moment, he didn't know whether he should be happy or worried …
"Gantian Mountain meeting, Country Advisor Zhang Huai. I am here on orders from the King to welcome Country Father-in-Law! "
A voice spread in from outside, waking Kong Rui up. He raised his eyes and looked out of the window. Unknowingly, the carriage had already arrived at the north city gate of Gantian Mountain.
Slightly trembling, Kong Rui hurriedly tidied his clothes and stepped down from the carriage.
Then, he saw a scholarly teen leading a bunch of people to wait under the carriage.
Seeing him come down, he smiled and bowed, "Country Father-in-Law must be really tired from the carriage. Do you want to go to the guest house to rest or head to the Hanyan Palace? Concubine Yao is already in the palace waiting for you. She can see you anytime. "
Bowing slightly, when Zhang Huai raised his eyes, he was startled. Why was this Emperor's father-in-law called Kong Rui in such a sorry state?
Who knows what he went through, his right eye was tightly shut and a little swollen. His face was also ashen white.
He couldn't help but stare viciously at the few escorts. However, he only received some innocent looks back. It seemed like it really had nothing to do with these few people …
Kong Rui originally didn't care much about this teen. He only thought to himself that the earlier he saw Yao 'er the better. Why was he still resting?
He also felt slightly weird. This person had the title of Country Advisor. He had never heard of such an official title.
Looking closely, Kong Rui was shocked once more. His head was full, the ground was round. Between his brows, there was a little bit of purple energy.
It was rare to see someone with such a face. He was definitely extremely rich and was destined to hold huge power.
However, at this moment, it wasn't convenient for him to deduce.
Kong Rui's expression also became somewhat cautious. Such a person, even if he didn't need to purposely make friends with him, he couldn't treat him lightly.
The two of them exchanged a few greetings before boarding the carriage together. The moment they entered the city gates, they heard a loud rumbling sound.
A cavalry force galloped past the carriage. They were all tall and strong riding beasts with strong armor and sharp spears. All the cavalry were grade 3 and above. Pretty much every ten of them had one xiantian.
The one at the lead carried a ten feet long knife on his back. His strength had already entered grade 7.
Their aura was sharp, obviously they were elites who had been through wars. Even if they just passed by, the killing intent made one feel a chill down their spine.
Kong Rui frowned slightly. There weren't many of such elite cavalry in Taishang. Their armor was complete, one man and three horses. On the horses, there were many things. Did a war break out in Donglin?
"These are the elite cavalry of our Gantian Mountain! The one leading them is the ruler's favorite general Hu Zhongyuan. "
Zhang Huai seemed to know what the person beside him was thinking about, casually explaining, "I heard that the night demon race is active 3,700 miles south of Huizhou and has already invaded the cloud world several times. Although Great Shang has troops stationed there, the distance is too far and they can't reach. That's why they asked my king for help … "
Not only that, but when he said the words Hu Zhongyuan, the corner of Zhang Huai's lips curled up.
Kong Rui was enlightened. He had heard of this matter when he was in the Imperial Capital, but he didn't know the specifics. The countries and sects of the cloud world all had a responsibility to defend against the invasion of the alien races.
In the past, when the Donglin Cloud Continent was in chaos, they naturally couldn't take out any strength. Now that Donglin was unified, Gantian Mountain couldn't reject such a matter.
The carriage continued forward. When they entered the city, they saw the carriages moving like shuttles, the streets filled with people. The speed of the carriage slowed down, moving at the speed of a turtle.
Even when the people on the streets saw the luxurious carriage, they didn't have any intentions of moving aside.
Zhang Huai felt his head hurt, forcing out a smile, "It will be fine after a few days. My officials are already thinking of a way. They are preparing to set the rules to split left and right. At that time, it won't be so congested … "
Kong Rui didn't think much of it. It was normal in the Imperial Capital. However, when the nobles went out, they would avoid them and not dare to stop them.
This Gantian Mountain didn't seem to have such rules. The people here didn't seem to have much fear of the rich and powerful.
Along the way, in a short one mile, they had already seen 30 grade 6 cultivators. There were also 1 or 2 grade-7 experts.
They all held weapons in their hands, many of them looked fierce, like they were about to pull out their blades and kill people if they didn't like them.
There were many soldiers patrolling on the streets, all of them covered in strong armor. Their hands pressed on their swords, their eyes opened wide, filled with killing intent.
"The martial wind here is really strong!"
When he said this, Kong Rui added another sentence in his heart. The people were really strong, close to barbaric.
However, before this, he was prejudiced and didn't like this Gantian Mountain at all.
At this moment, after experiencing the energy viewing matter, he was more wary and wasn't willing to make a decision.
There were two sides to the matter, the martial wind was really strong and tough to control. However, if they stood up and Gantian Mountain gave an order, they would instantly have a million elite troops.
Zhang Huai smiled and didn't mind. When he first came to Gantian Mountain, he also felt that the people here were a little too strong.
That day when the Xue Family changed, half of the people on the streets had already picked up their weapons and were ready to kill the Xue Family people.
Following which, Kong Rui asked, "I see that Gantian Mountain doesn't restrict weapons, there are hundreds of dojos. Isn't Gantian Mountain afraid of chaos? "
"This … Ruler didn't want to ban weapons in the past. He said that the people rebelled because they couldn't afford to live. So what if weapons were banned? If the country was clean and the people were safe, then even if people had bad intentions, no one would follow. I have a clear conscience, so why would I fear the people? However, half a year ago, Ruler felt that there were no less than a hundred fights every day with many casualties. Thus, he changed his mind and wanted to collect all the weapons. Unfortunately, in the end, nothing happened. "
Kong Rui didn't understand. He knew about Zong Shou's prestige in Gantian Mountain. From the words of the people he came into contact with, he could tell.
What did this person want to do in Donglin, was there anything he couldn't do? Collecting weapons and armor was a benevolent policy.
Wasn't that sentence, "The people rebelled because they couldn't afford to live. So what if weapons were banned? If the country was clean and the people were safe, then even if people had bad intentions, no one would follow. "This shocked him.
To be able to say such words, how could he be so ignorant? (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.)
