Just as Zong Shou was flying towards the barracks outside of the city, Renbo was sitting in a carriage and coming down from Zhengan Peak.
The glow in his eyes didn't reduce, instead, it was much sharper than a few years ago. However, at this moment, Renbo's eyes were looking at the sky outside the window.
He could see a giant silver-white Long Ying moving its body in the cloud layer, rolling and roaming in the sky.
"It is silver-white in color, however, it doesn't have a physical body. It is so free, sometimes I really envy this beast … "
Two months ago, he could already see this 100,000-foot Long Ying. However, till now, he still wasn't sure what it was.
It looked like a Platinum Dragon, however, its aura wasn't as sharp and it didn't have a physical body.
He said that it was a Xuanyin Dragon. However, its bright scale armor was majestic and noble, without any evil aura at all.
Who knows whether this giant dragon was friend or foe, whether it had any bad intentions towards Gantian Mountain.
Shaking his head, Renbo retracted his gaze and asked his nephew beside him, "Can you see it?"
Ren Tianxing was also looking, however, his eyes were filled with loss.
"Forgive my poor eyesight, I really don't know where that giant dragon is …"
In his heart, he was already thinking, was his uncle really muddle-headed?
Renbo frowned and didn't say anything. He had already asked tens of people this question.
Dozens of people said yes, however, in the end, it proved that these people were just trying to get on his good side and saying things that weren't true. As for the other people, they didn't know what was going on.
At this moment, even his own nephew denied that he really couldn't see it.
Either he, Ren Bo, was really dim-sighted due to old age, or there was another reason.
However, how could it be fake when it was so real? He had already proven numerous times that this wasn't an illusion.
Renbo couldn't help but think back to what Kong Rui said.
This was the Country Protecting Saint Beast …
Squinting his eyes, Renbo shook his head. He flipped through the history books and those divination books, but he had never seen such a term before.
He only heard that the 5 Vast Habitats had their own Protector Saint Beasts.
If he didn't know the truth, he would have thought that this Long Ying was a trick that Kong Rui came up with to fool people.
Although this beast had never caused any trouble, it was not controlled by humans, and was ultimately a hidden danger.
Jun Shang probably thought so too …
Thinking of Zong Shou, Renbo's expression turned gloomy and he smiled bitterly. That child was probably really sick of him this time.
For such a big matter like the cabinet meeting, they actually didn't even show their faces. It could be seen how much they despised him.
His original intention was to protect the foundation of the late king and Zong Shou.
Last year, he submitted the memorial because he did not want Zong Shou to destroy the country that he had built with his own hands.
The kindness of recognizing my worth should be repaid with a ring.
Ren Tianxing knew what his uncle was thinking, but when he saw the situation, he didn't think much of it.
"In my opinion, Uncle is overthinking things this time. If Jun Shang was really annoyed by what happened a year ago, why would he nominate you to form the cabinet? "
The position of Prime Minister needed the recognition of more than half of the people in the meeting. However, one needed Zong Shou's nomination to have the rights.
The few people who were in the election were just there for show. To Renbo, they didn't pose a threat at all.
He was a bystander and had served Gantian Mountain for 2 years, so he roughly knew Zong Shou's personality.
Based on what his junior brother said, Jun Shang probably just didn't want to give up his face. Although he was a benevolent ruler, sometimes he was as stubborn as a kid.
Thinking about that, Ren Tianxing's lips curled up. Such a ruler was really interesting.
"Moreover, Jun Shang is wise and won't affect country matters because of one person's preferences. Even if he hates Uncle, there is no need to worry … "
If it was other people, they would naturally be worried. After all, being with a ruler was like being with a tiger. However, since it was Zong Shou, Ren Tianxing instinctively felt at ease.
Renbo's brows rose up, following which he sighed leisurely. In his heart, he actually treated Zong Shou as his junior, a nephew.
He had been in charge of Gantian Mountain for close to 20 years and personally watched Zong Shou grow up. When he was young, he made one worry, but then he turned into a dragon and stood proudly in the sky!
The cloud crossing carriage suddenly stopped. Just as Renbo was feeling weird, he saw a 70-year-old old man hurriedly walk in.
It was the butler who had followed him for many years. He entered the carriage and bowed.
"Family Head Bing, Temple Head Bailing is asking to meet you. He said that he wants to thank Family Head for your kindness, I don't dare to act on my own … "
As he said that, he respectfully handed over a gift box in his hand.
Renbo didn't take it, expressionlessly looking out of the carriage window once more.
Only to see a few Taoists standing in front of the carriage. The one at the front was dressed in white, giving off an elegant aura. He seemed to have noticed Ren Bo's gaze and bowed slightly with a smile on his face.
"Prime Minister Ren's memorial a year ago saved millions of lives of our Taoist Faction. Baiyun Temple Head Zigui represents our Taoist Faction colleagues to thank you for your kindness. I have something to ask of you, can you meet with us to discuss? Our Bailing Temple will repay you after this and won't disappoint you. "
Renbo's eyes constricted, following which he laughed coldly. He directly took the gift box and tossed it out of the carriage window.
"Scram!"
His tone was firm, not leaving any room for negotiation, filled with disgust.
On the other hand, Ren Tianxing sucked in a cold breath. Only to see the gift box open outside the window. Suddenly, dozens of Grade-9 Mind Stones fell to the ground.
His sincerity was really great. Even he felt that it was a pity.
The old servant knew Renbo's intentions and backed out of the carriage without saying a word. Then, the carriage slowly moved forward once more.
Ren Tianxing's expression turned slightly solemn. He tossed those Grade-9 Mind Stones to the back of his head and asked solemnly, "Uncle, did Ruler call me back to conquer the outer region?"
For no reason at all, he was called back from Huizhou. Thinking about it, Ren Tianxing could only think about this matter. On the way back, he was worried about this matter.
However, the moment these words were said, he frowned.
Zigui? Where did he hear this name before?
※ ※ ※
The Cloud Crossing Carriage traveled in a neither fast nor slow manner. In just a moment, they were thousands of feet away.
Zigui stood on the side of the road. His expression was indifferent and cold as he watched Ren Bo's carriage disappear around the corner of the street.
Only at this moment did he casually reach out. He kept all the Mind Stones on the ground into his sleeves.
Then, his face was filled with a smile, "They all said that Prime Minister Ren is really straightforward. Today, I see that it is true! "
There was even a hint of admiration in his words. It was like he wasn't annoyed by Renbo's words at all.
The other Taoist beside didn't understand, "This doesn't seem like your personality …"
"It doesn't seem like it!"
Zigui was really casual, "If it was someone else, I would kill him with one sword just because of that sentence. However, this person saved millions of lives with just one sentence. No matter what the reason is, I have to give in to him. "
As he said that, Zigui suddenly turned his head and looked at another Taoist in a green shirt.
This person was really ordinary, his aura was really simple. If one didn't pay attention, one would think that he was a normal person.
However, if one looked closely, one would be able to sense the spirituality and elegance hidden under that simplicity.
At this moment, this Taoist was looking into the sky like he was observing something but he didn't gain anything. Thus, his eyes were filled with confusion.
Zigui looked towards where he was looking, only to see a blue sky with nothing at all.
He didn't understand, "Senior Brother Qingming, do you feel that there is something over there?"
Qingming's brows were tightly furrowed and he didn't speak for a moment. In the end, he shook his head, "Speaking of which, it is weird. Just now, I felt that there was the aura of a Saint Beast. Junior Brother, please excuse me … "
"Saint Beast?"
Zigui was stunned. As expected, he looked towards Qingming with a weird expression.
Any Saint Beast needed to be in the form of a soul to be worshipped by the pure thoughts of numerous cultivators. It was similar to a God. The crafting method was really strict. Out of the few factions, only Confucianism, Buddhism and Taoism grasped it.
Even their Taoist Faction had billions of disciples who had the heart to protect the Dao. However, they only raised 3 God Realm Protector Saint Beasts to protect Daoling Vast Habitat.
Under Gantian Mountain, there were enough cultivators. However, in terms of pure thoughts, one could only laugh and not say anything.
Be it Martial Cultivator or Spirit Master, once one's strength reached a certain level, one would naturally hate restrictions. Especially Royalty.
Even in Gantian Mountain, where the people's hearts were so united, there was no way to form Saint Beasts.
"Maybe my Spiritual Sense made a mistake."
Qingming didn't care. Then, he looked at the street in front of him with a shocked expression.
The first feeling that Gantian Mountain gave him was that it was clean and tidy. After that, flowers blossomed like a brocade.
Not only Gantian Mountain City, but a large portion of Donglin Cloud Continent was filled with life.
"A year ago, the Vast Habitat sent a message for me to return quickly. At that time, I didn't think much of it. A junior, a small Monster King, why did he have to do that? He was making a mountain out of a molehill. Only now did I know that this Gantian Mountain Monster King had to be wiped out! We need to be really careful and go all out … "
Zigui kept silent. He was in the same situation as Qingming.
At the start, he was filled with disdain. However, only after he returned did he realize that the current Daoling Vast Habitat had made an enemy that they had to get rid of.
"The people are rich and the country is peaceful. However, the martial arts are flourishing. The Great Path is spread in all directions and merchants are everywhere. This place is even more prosperous than the mid plains. This is a scene that I haven't seen in 500 years. "
Zigui took in a deep breath, pausing for a moment before he opened his mouth.
"However, I also heard that this was due to Renbo's efforts in ruling the country."
The moment he said that, Qingming asked, "Do you really believe those words?"
Zigui instantly kept silent. He didn't believe those words either.
"What a joke, those Confucians in the Central Cloud Continent only heard rumors. If they didn't agree with him, they would be seen as going against the Dao. They actually still see Donglin as a barbaric land … "
Qingming said while laughing coldly, "Although I don't know how to rule the country, that person was able to rule 6 states at 20 years of age. He has millions of troops under him, good governance and peaceful people. How can such a person be a mediocre ruler? " If you like this work, you are welcome to come to qidian.com to vote for me.
