"You want me to teach her the art of war, do you want her to lead the army? I think this brat doesn't have such talent! "
Zong Shou's heart jumped. The current Ruolan indeed didn't show any potential to be an unparalleled general.
A person's talent, apart from one's own talent, was also influenced by one's environment and experience.
It was tough to say that Shi Ruolan under his and Hanfang's care would be better than the hell-like environment in the last life, where the strong preyed on the weak.
What a person gained, they would definitely lose …
Following which he broke out into a laugh. If a few years ago when he found Shi Ruolan, he still had some utilitarian thoughts.
Then at this moment, he was already treating this brat as his own sister.
If she didn't succeed, then forget it …
"Why does senior master say that? No matter how useless this brat is, she should still be stronger than normal people! "
An unparalleled general seed's talent wasn't just a little stronger.
Hanfang's brows were tightly furrowed, not knowing what to say. After a short while, he squeezed out a sentence, "She doesn't follow the rules!"
When Zong Shou heard that, he was at a loss. Doesn't follow the rules? What kind of reason was that? How did she not follow the rules? She didn't follow the rules?
"I taught her about the art of war, talking about the phrase 'two hundred miles of an interesting person will become a general, a hundred miles of an interesting person will be half an army'. She asked me, 'swift like the wind, slow like the forest, invading like fire, not moving like a mountain, hard to predict like the dark, moving like thunder', what do you mean? Two hundred miles of an interesting person will become a general, is that a certain thing? "
Like he had opened up a conversation box, Hanfang said angrily, "I taught her how to play chess. It said that an infantry army can travel one hundred and forty miles a day. However, she wanted to travel one hundred and sixty miles. When I asked why, she said that I abandoned the heavy armor which was why I was able to travel one hundred and sixty miles. All in all, all in all … "
As he said that, Hanfang's words were hesitant, like he was thinking about how to phrase it. In the end, he opened his mouth, "All in all, when you are talking reason with her, she will act like a hooligan. When you act like a hooligan, she will talk about rules with you. This lass is treating the art of war as child's play. "
Zong Shou paused for a moment, then turned his gaze to Shi Ruolan. She looked back at him and Hanfang with an innocent expression. It was as if he was trying to say that he really didn't do it on purpose.
In the next moment, Zong Shou burst out laughing. He was extremely happy. He patted Ruo Lan's head. This girl really didn't disappoint!
Hanfang was completely confused by Zong Shou's sudden laughter. Who knew what this fellow was happy about?
※ ※ ※
He said that he wanted Zong Shou to take Shi Ruolan away, but when it came to parting, Hanfang was extremely reluctant.
Helplessly, Zong Shou could only stay in the vast habitat for another 10 days. Let this master and disciple be together for a little while longer. At the same time, he would deal with some random things that belonged to Tan Qiu. Let those senior and junior brothers and sisters have a chance to respect him and get closer to him.
When he truly left, Hanfang's expression was extremely complicated. She stuffed a large pile of things into Shi Ruolan's hands.
… pills, magical artifacts, mind stones, talismans. Some of the things within were things that even Zong Shou was envious of.
At least that heaven and earth bag was 7 times bigger than the one he was using!
After saying goodbye, he also used the teleportation jade letter to return to Gantian Mountain.
At this moment, Zhao Yanran had already sent his ship wood and the Royal Demon God Shuttle back to Gantian Mountain 2 days ago.
Maybe because this demon girl was already famous outside. Although the Royal Demon God Shuttle carried heavy treasures, it was really safe and there weren't any changes along the way.
It was said that after Renbo found out, he was delighted for half a day.
Just these pieces of ancient wood were enough to reduce the cost of modifying the spaceship by 50%.
At this moment, Zong Shou didn't have the time to bother about this matter. He learned that Zong Gang had already led 400 thousand carefully selected infantry and cavalry to leave Rainbow City and head towards Huizhou. Zong Shou hurriedly called Zhang Huai over and asked him a few questions. Then, without stopping, he drove the shuttle and flew towards Lianyun Island.
Without the giant wood holding down the cabin, the speed of the shuttle increased once more. In just a day, Zong Shou had already arrived in the sky above this archipelago.
There weren't many changes compared to 10 days ago. The only difference was that the stench here was a little thicker.
Who knows how many heads Weihai had chopped off during these 10 days?
He pressed down the shuttle and flew towards the few floating islands that Weihai had pointed out that day.
As expected, there were thousands of cloud ships docked here.
Apart from ships transporting various resources, warships carrying soldiers. There were also 500 three-tooth warships and close to a hundred five-tooth warships.
There were also ten seven-tooth and nine-tooth warships above.
They were lined up in an orderly manner, numerous six-armed and even seven-armed giant crossbows pointed outwards. The armor was firm and sharp, giving off a terrifying aura.
At this moment, there were already some soldiers who came ashore and were organizing the barracks on the island.
However, when Zong Shou drove the Royal Demon God Shuttle and landed on the deck of a nine-tooth giant ship, Zong Shou's expression changed.
He saw that Zong Gang and the others who were welcoming him had extremely ugly expressions. They were dark and gloomy, their eyes filled with rage.
When Zong Shou saw this, his brow furrowed. He looked around and roughly knew what was going on.
He saw that the giant crossbows placed on the arrow platform were all removed.
If that was the case, it was still okay. However, the spiritual formation here had all its mind stones taken out.
It needed a lot of time to redraw it.
Zong Shou squinted and looked tens of miles away in the direction of the main island.
Only to see that there were dozens of people looking in this direction. A few of the Huizhou city lords looked at the group of warships, their faces turning green and white.
Like they were shocked by Gantian Mountain's military strength, they were filled with regret.
Weihai had the Taishang as his shield, so naturally, he didn't need to worry about Gantian Mountain. However, if Zong Shou wanted to take their lives, it would be just a flick of his finger!
Wei Hai, on the other hand, had a smile on his face as he cupped his fists towards them, as if apologizing.
Kong Xuan's face was cold and disdainful.
Zong Shou was delighted, returning the bow and not bothering. He turned his head and heard Zong Gang say coldly.
"It is okay if they took the crossbows away. After all, they belong to the Taishang. These spiritual crossbows are precious and it is understandable that they aren't willing to give them up. As for grain and resources, we can also not care about giving them 100,000 people. However, what is the meaning of destroying the spiritual formation here? "
Ling Xuan added, "This Weihai is a despicable person. Does he really think that we don't know about his ulterior motives?"
Zong Yuan and Ren Tianxing both kept silent, their expressions were really solemn.
Hu Zhongyuan directly bowed and hollered, "Ruler, please issue a decree to withdraw the troops from here! What does the life and death of Huizhou Island have to do with us? "
The moment he said this, the others were all silent and no one agreed.
Their brows were tightly furrowed and they were a little worried.
Zong Shou's eyes flashed and then he laughed.
If this was a few days ago, it wouldn't be inappropriate.
However, to choose when the Night Demon was about to attack from here at any moment, one couldn't help but think about many things …
The other spiritual crossbows on the arrow platforms could be moved from the warships.
The Nine Arm Spiritual Crossbow with the highest killing strength was really tough to move.
Moreover, with this spiritual formation, it was unknown whether or not it could be repaired before the Night Demons arrived.
Even if it was completed, it would be tough to make it flawless. If he was Prince Jia Mingluo, he would definitely choose this place to break through and not other places that were more tightly guarded …
To say that Weihai had ulterior motives was still too light.
If he knew about this ten days ago, he would definitely be furious. No matter how shrewd he was, he would be annoyed. However, now that he heard it, he didn't care at all and just smiled.
"We can't retreat!"
Ren Tianxing was behind everyone. At this moment, he faced Hu Zhongyuan's murderous gaze and stepped out, "Half a day ago, General Zong Yuan and I worked together to investigate the situation. At this moment, there are a million Night Demons outside and they are all elites comparable to the Xue Family race soldiers. If we can't work together with the Taishang Army, even if we can't do it alone, we will suffer heavy casualties. Even if we want to retreat, we need to have a perfect plan. "
Most of the people around him were experienced and prudent. When they heard this, they all nodded their heads in agreement.
Only Hu Zhongyuan was so furious that his face flushed red.
Zong Shou smiled and understood what Ren Tianxing meant. If they retreated, what if Weihai didn't care and left too? What would happen then?
Not only would Gantian Mountain have to fight the Night Demons, but they would also be blamed by the sects and countries of the Cloud World.
As for the perfect plan, naturally, it would be to think of a way to make these dozens of Taishang elites stay here. Once the battle started, these people wouldn't be able to leave even if they wanted to.
Before he knew about the Great Death Restriction Formation, he would definitely shake his head and not say anything. With Weihai's intelligence, how would he take the blame for others? Knowing about this blood sacrifice formation, Zong Shou had some confidence.
This person was unscrupulous, using tens of millions of people as a sacrifice. His plan was definitely not small and he wouldn't easily retreat.
However, at this moment, he already had a plan in his heart and didn't need to do that.
"Since we can't retreat, then let's just stay!"
Hu Zhongyuan's eyes opened in rage when he heard that, but he suppressed it.
Zong Gang gritted his teeth and wanted to say something, but in the end, he kept his mouth shut.
His personality was actually a little more fiery than Hu Zhongyuan's.
However, since he was promoted to the right pillar general and started to observe the entire situation of Gantian Mountain, he restrained himself a little.
If it was a few years ago, he would have wanted to have an all out battle with these Taishang troops!
Taking in a deep breath, Zong Gang bowed, "Then I will arrange for spirit masters to set up the formation! This time, we have brought sixty Class 9 Energy-Destroying Crossbows with us. We can use them here … "
Zong Shou shook his head, his expression filled with deep meaning, "There is no need to waste so much effort. Since there is already a spiritual formation, let's just use it. Why do we need to set it up again?"
The few people around were startled when they heard that, not understanding what he meant. Following which Zong Shou took out a wooden box and passed it to Kong Yao.
