They were really close to Lianyun Island. Although the Royal Demon God Shuttle's speed was slow, in just 30 minutes, they arrived.
They floated 200 thousand feet in the air and used illusionary techniques to cover, so they weren't afraid that the people below would notice.
However, when Zong Shou looked down, his expression turned serious. In the end, he broke out into a laugh, "That's right …"
Only to see that at the edges of the floating islands, many heads were sliced off by the black-armored soldiers.
Blood splashed onto the ground and was instantly absorbed by the spiritual formation.
When the blood in the neck was dried up, the heads were tossed into the cloud ocean.
There were even more cloud ships in the distance, transporting even more people from afar.
What Zong Shou didn't expect was that they weren't old or weak, but mostly strong men. Their clothes were tattered and their expressions were numb and filled with despair. There were some who wanted to fight back, but they were instantly killed by the surrounding soldiers.
Squinting, Zong Shou didn't need to think to know that the vital energy of these strong men was much stronger.
To think that the City Lords of Huizhou were willing to send out so much manpower.
The few people in the shuttle were all used to bloody scenes. They were slightly startled before they regained their composure.
Jingyin was so furious that her body trembled. Her lips turned white as she gritted her teeth. She looked at Zong Shou with a pleading gaze.
She knew that the only person who could save these people was this person.
Although she didn't like this fellow, he was still different from those beasts below.
Who knew that the moment Zong Shou opened his mouth, he praised, "What was that sentence again? A general should be unscrupulous. This Marshal Wei is truly a master of the Samadhi. "
Zhao Yanran nodded her head, "The Night Demons are strong, so it's understandable that Weihai would do that."
Jingyin's heart turned cold. Just as she was about to get up and leave the shuttle. She heard Zong Shou mocking himself, "But for some reason, I still can't get used to it …"
Ten million laborers, if they were in his hands, who knew how much money he could earn every year.
But Wei Hai had been wasted just like that. It would be fine if he could truly seal off the realm here, but he couldn't. How heartbreaking …
However, the lives of tens of millions of people were pitiful. The soldiers under him and the billions of people in Donglin Cloud Continent were more important.
Kong Yao wasn't surprised. She took a deep look at her 'husband' beside her.
Although this person was sinister and hateful, he was a benevolent ruler.
However, she shook her head and said, "Husband, a lack of forbearance in small matters will spoil great plans. If you really don't like it, you can send a messenger to dissuade them. "
Even she didn't believe her own words. This move was most likely useless. Wei Hai would definitely not listen. They would suspect that Gantian Mountain was up to no good. Who knows, they might even go from bad to worse and chop off the heads of these tens of millions of people as soon as possible to avoid any more trouble.
"Now is the time for us to work together to fight against the enemy. Husband, it's best that you don't make things too tense with him."
There was something that he couldn't say out loud. If he was a wise and intelligent person, he would have pretended not to see it. The bigger picture is more important.
"Send a messenger to dissuade them? Is one time not enough? Do we have to be humiliated by Wei Hai once more? "
Laughing coldly, Zong Shou was in deep thought as he looked into the sky with a stunned expression.
A moment later, he laughed. At the start, his voice was so low that it couldn't be heard. Then, his voice shook the clouds like he was crazy.
Just as the girls around were a little worried. A moment later, Zong Shou suddenly stopped. His expression was solemn as he asked Kong Yao, "If Kong Yao you command, with our 400 thousand elites, how many people do we need? How much time do we need to take down the Lianyun Islands? How many deaths will there be? "
These words were extremely abrupt and baffling to everyone.
Kong Yao's brows furrowed. Although she didn't understand, she still said solemnly, "If we catch them off guard, at most 6 hours. The casualties would be less than half a town … "
Zong Shou nodded slightly. Based on his calculations, it would also be 4 hours. The casualties would be less than 2 thousand.
Following which he asked, "If we have a million troops, you will command them. Will you be able to defend this island? "
Kong Yao was shocked once more. What did Zong Shou mean by that?
She had never experienced a million-man war. It hadn't been long since she was promoted to a Titled Governor.
In the past, there were dozens of battles with 200,000-300,000 people.
Not to mention commanding a million-man army.
Then, she thought back to Qiu Wei. The only person in Gantian Mountain who had such rights was this Left Pillar General.
Zong Shou asked her purely to ask and didn't have any other intentions.
"If it was Commander Qiu, I really don't know. However, if it was Kong Yao, I would definitely abandon this island. "
Zong Shou exclaimed. Then, he heard Kong Yao continue, "This island is alone in the Cloud Ocean and has no place to defend and no place to retreat to. If it was Prince Jia Mingluo, just 100 thousand Night Demons would be able to trap our million-man army on this island. Even the navy had no way to turn the situation around. The only way was to retreat to the land and fight back. Does the ruler want to move troops from Gantian? We can't do that … "
Before he could finish, he was interrupted by Zong Shou's chuckle.
As expected of the invincible general that would appear decades later. This business deal was really profitable.
Zhao Yanran was confused and frowned, "Zong Shou, are you crazy? It's so weird … "
However, Zong Shou suddenly stretched and said, "Since we can't reason with them, then let's not reason with them! I can't bear to see the people of Huizhou die under my knife, so I can only hang them up and save them … "
It was another inexplicable sentence. Zhao Yanran was surprised again. Was this guy for real?
When he heard the last part, he came to a realization. Wasn't this the best excuse to occupy Huizhou Island?
However, didn't this fellow look at the time? Even if he could occupy Huizhou, how would he be able to block those Night Demons?
"What big picture, what not taking small things and messing up big plans, that's all bullshit! Weihai can't block those Night Demons, so let me take over … "
The moment he said this, Kong Yao's face flushed red and she felt angry. She was thinking about Zong Shou wholeheartedly.
There was a saying in the Central Continent, if you marry a chicken, follow the chicken, if you marry a dog, follow the dog. The moment her father rushed over to Gantian Mountain, she had already accepted her fate.
Following him along the way and giving advice, he was trying his best to think for Zong Shou.
However, this person didn't know what was good for him …
Forget it, she was too lazy to care about him!
Zong Shou didn't notice at all, he was still filled with pride as he scoffed, "This time people will say that I am taking advantage of them and not caring about the big picture. However, it is okay. Why do I, Zong Shou, need to reason with people? I am invincible in the world, so why should I be afraid of people pointing at me? Chaotic times are about to descend and this kind path won't work. Since that is the case, then let's just be overbearing. Hei! I should have thought about this theory earlier. Small waves can be squashed with a wave of my hand. Remember, in the future you can call me Zong Batian … "
In the future, in the Cloud World, there was a rich person known as Nan Batian. When he did things, he was overbearing and never talked reason with others. He bullied men and women and did all sorts of evil. Zong Shou had read the biography of this person and had always been envious of him.
A real man should be like that …
When he said this, the flying shuttle was so silent that one could hear a pin drop.
Zong Shou was overbearing, looking at the stunned expressions of the girls, he was speechless for a long time. He impatiently kicked Zhao Yanran who was in a daze, saying rudely, "Remember to help me send this ship wood back to Gantian. If it is missing, I will hold you responsible! "
After saying this, he walked out of the flying shuttle alone.
Zhao Yanran woke up after a short while. Then, he touched his buttocks and was startled.
She gritted her teeth and was filled with rage. This Zong Shou actually dared to take advantage of her, he really didn't want to live!

After leaving the flying shuttle, Zong Shou took out the teleportation jade letter. He activated the spell and the surrounding environment slowly became illusionary.
Countless spaces and countless different sceneries were constantly intersecting and flashing in the vicinity.
Maybe because his cultivation was much higher, this time he didn't feel like vomiting.
When the scenes in front of him finally settled down, he was already in the Book Hiding Pavilion of the common people's vast habitat.
As usual, it was cold and lonely. Zong Shou's expression was a little dark.
In front of Zhao Yanran and the others, although he was laughing and joking, scolding and joking. In his heart, he was suppressed by the Night Demon army in the outer region such that he couldn't breathe.
Closing his eyes, Zong Shou adjusted his emotions before heading downstairs.
When he stepped down the last few steps, his face had changed into Tan Qiu's appearance.
Surprisingly, Hanfang and Ruolan weren't here.
Zong Shou's brows rose as he walked out of the Book Hiding Pavilion. Looking around, it was currently morning. Cang Shengdao's disciples were mostly walking around the corridors.
Looking at Zong Shou's words, pretty much everyone was shocked and then they all bowed.
At this moment, no one in the common people's vast habitat didn't know about Tanqiu and no one disrespected him.
Not only because of his frighteningly high seniority, but also because of his strong sword techniques.
However, when Zong Shou's spiritual sense spread out, he was still unable to sense where Hanfang and Shi Ruolan were.
Were they outside of the learning palace? Or perhaps, which river was it in?
Zong Shou didn't hesitate, riding a sword and heading out of the palace city.
Just as he was about to walk out of the city gate, a voice rang out. In the sky, a buzzing sound spread out.
Zong Shou raised his head in shock and then saw a light strike over. It circled and landed in front of him, nailing into the stone beneath his feet.
It was a sword, roughly 5 feet long. It looked really normal, really ordinary.
On the sword body, there was a layer of green light.
Zong Shou looked around in shock and then looked up, but he didn't see anything.
Although the sword was inches away from him, it didn't look like a sneak attack.
Reaching out his hand, Zong Shou pulled out the sword in confusion. Then, he was shocked.
… This was actually a grade 4 magical treasure!
Casually waving, he didn't use much strength and a sword energy shot out. Instantly, a thin and deep mark was drawn on the ground.
This sword was really sharp … If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me. Your support is my biggest motivation.)
