Rubbing his temples with a headache, Zong Shou flew up 3 thousand feet above the mountain peak.
He looked down at Gantian Mountain City from above. One could see that the entire city had expanded by half a size as compared to a year ago.
The city walls that were being built before were obviously smaller. They were surrounded by numerous houses.
The 2nd outer wall was already being built. The city protecting spiritual formation was being set up once more.
Luckily, at this moment, the entire Donglin Cloud Continent had calmed down.
Under the suppression of 4 million troops, all the cities in Donglin didn't have any wars for a full year.
With the prestige of the battle of Seven Cloud Mountain, no one dared to provoke Gantian Mountain.
The entire Gantian Mountain could be said to be peaceful.
The only thing that made Zong Shou unhappy was that the green wind stone paths that he invested in started to have profits. In a short year, he earned close to 300 grade 9 mind stones. During this year, there wasn't such a good thing.
The slightly decent large cities in the Cloud Continent were all renovating their roads. They were guarding against him like he was a thief. Even if he took over the road rights, the price was huge.
How preposterous!
Actually, he just charged a little more and the years were a little longer. Those clear wind stone paths were still really well built.
Luckily, what you lose on the swings you gain on the roundabouts. There were many stone paths. The blacksmithing shops and carriage businesses in his hands were slowly becoming popular.
The dozens of horse farms in Donglin Cloud Continent could sell over 100 thousand grade 2 mounts each month. They also earned a lot.
Apart from that, the merchant tax also increased greatly. In the past, a cloud crossing carriage with 8 grade 2 mounts needed at least one and a half months to travel from west to east. However, today, it only needed 25 days to arrive.
This was because there were many green wind stone paths in the east that weren't completed.
If they were all connected, then in just 10 days, one would be able to see the cloud ocean in the east.
At this moment, looking at the few city gates, there were numerous carriages carrying various goods entering and exiting.
At least 10% of all the merchant tax would go into his treasury.
The current Donglin already had the atmosphere of the prosperous era ten thousand years in the future.
"From the looks of it, I still underestimated myself. Who knew that I, Zong Shou, would be able to rule this country so well … "
Zong Shou was a little proud, but he had forgotten that he had not been involved in political affairs for two to three years. He did not hesitate to take the credit of the Cabinet Secretaries.
He remembered that when he took over Gantian Mountain, he was pretty much broke.
But now, just the annual tax revenue was equivalent to the income of ten or twenty high-grade spirit stone veins.
This didn't include Huizhou under Zhang Huai's rule.
Then he frowned and looked down.
A giant dragon could be seen leisurely swimming through the clouds with a large group of Grade Nine Flood Dragons.
This was the Yin Dragon that had forced its way into the Avici Throne uninvited two years ago.
However, at this moment, his appearance had changed.
Although his body was still illusionary, it was white in color. The scales on his body were like the silver-white flames of Hanxi, filled with a pure and holy feeling.
That thick vengeful energy was nowhere to be seen.
Not only this giant dragon, but the other flood dragons were the same.
At this moment, even Zong Shou didn't know whether or not they were considered Yin Dragons.
If they weren't, then what kind of dragon race were they?
He had invited Ao Kun over to take a look, but this Saint Realm expert had a weird expression.
He only said that this Yin Dragon had merged its soul mark with the source of the Avici Throne.
Although he could forcefully take it out, he would definitely heavily damage this country protecting God Artifact, so there was nothing he could do about it.
After which, Zong Shou was helpless and was prepared to ask the Buddhist Faction for help. However, he was stopped by Kong Rui. According to the new Imperial Astrology Junior Supervisor, This beast was the Country Protecting Saint Beast and was connected to the country's fate and luck.
Zong Shou still didn't understand how a thing that took over a nest became the Country Protecting Saint Beast.
He didn't see this fellow do anything. It either stayed in the Avici Throne and didn't come out or it roamed the clouds and sunbathed.
Speaking of which, it was weird. This dragon's body was huge, 100,000 feet long. However, each time it appeared on the Gantian Mountain peak, there was no movement at all.
There were less than 10 people in Gantian Mountain who could sense its presence.
It was formless and traceless. This could be considered one of the natural abilities of the Mysterious Yin Dragon.
However, the problem was that the one in front of him was shining with a bright silver light, its scales were extremely eye-catching.
That giant dragon head passed by his side, not bothering about Zong Shou at all.
Xiaori who was standing on Zong Shou's shoulder raised its claws and cried out, like it was warmly greeting this dragon.
That silver-white giant dragon finally turned its head. It opened its mouth and roared as a reply.
When the dragon opened its mouth, a wind blew and sound waves surged. Xiaori was perfectly fine but Zong Shou was blown backwards, his hair messy.
His lips twitched. Zong Shoxin had the thought of pulling out the tendons and skinning the giant dragon.
However, when he compared its size and the aura that was tens of times stronger than him, Zong Shou was smart enough to suppress such thoughts.
Since Ao Kun wasn't willing to help, then he could only compromise. In the future, when he stepped into the Celestial Realm, he would take revenge.
Scoffing coldly, Zong Shou flew into the air and left Gantian Mountain City. A moment later, he was dozens of miles away.
It was where the army camp was. Not only was it not abandoned, but it had expanded by a lot.
Looking out, one could see that roughly 1,000 feet above the ground. There were a total of 8 giant boats lined up in an orderly manner.
The long ones were a million feet and the short ones were 50,000 feet.
Six of them were floating in the air. The other two were held up in the air by huge wooden brackets.
At this moment, there were hundreds of spirit masters who were busy around the 2 space ships.
They were either rebuilding the ship, repairing the damaged areas or setting up spiritual formations.
"It is rare to see Ruler, you are willing to come over to take a look …"
When this voice landed, a person suddenly appeared beside Zong Shou.
It was Tianqi. At this moment, he was smiling and in a good mood.
"Out of these 8 space ships, 6 have been completed. As for the other 2, at most 2 months, they can be completed. Even these 2 broken Night Demon ships, Tianqi can guarantee with my life that after they are repaired, their combat strength will be much stronger than before! "
"With Sect Leader in charge, what can Zong Shou be worried about?"
Zong Shou nodded slightly, glancing at this person and then smiling, "I heard that 2 months ago your Kongqi Sect opened up and accepted disciples. As for the number of disciples they have accepted, there are a total of 100,000 … " If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me.
