Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

“Thousand City Alliance, what is that?”

The entire hall was instantly silent. The smile on Yang Shuixue’s face solidified.

A moment later, he regained his senses. He was still smiling brightly, showing off his magnanimity.

“I heard other people say that your highness has a firm personality. Even when you were in desperate states 2 years ago you weren’t willing to take a step back. Now that I met you, I see that it is true! Only, I still have to say these words. Yunxia and Blazing Flame City have joined the Thousand City Alliance half a month ago. With the 1274 cities in our alliance, 27 provinces, 30 million troops as the shield. Your highness, it is better if you return Longze and Fuyao Provinces!”

“30 million troops? Hehe, I am so afraid!”

Zong Shou grinned and smiled coldly, “You are pretty interesting. Someone slapped the right of your face and you show him the left for him to slap again. Didn’t I already say that we will fight if you want to! Since that’s the case then both of us are enemies now. I will give you all 3 days to scram out of my country!”

Yang Shuixue’s pupils constricted in surprise. He knew that Zong Shou would reject. However, he didn’t think that Zong Shou would be so determined and so happy to fight with them.

Even Zong Ling laughed coldly, his dark eyes sweeping over. Not only not persuading his ruler, but he was also filled with a bloodthirsty cold glow.

He suddenly recalled that although this person was young, he was a strong spirit master who had been through hundreds of wars with Zong Weiran.

All of a sudden he started to hesitate. Did this Gantian Mountain have other trump cards that weren’t shown?

Thinking about it, he shook his head, “Ruler must be kidding. War is a matter of life and death. Once it starts, life will be wiped out. How can we treat it like such a game?”

This time he came over just to probe. He didn’t think about starting a war right away.

In his heart, he felt a pent up frustration. It seems like their Thousand City Alliance became the side that was afraid to fight. However, although they were strong to coordinate the troops would need a lot of time. It was indeed not a good time for them to fight.

Then his heart moved. Did Gantian Mountain see through that point and was going to use this time to create problems?

Even after Gantian Mountain disarmed some of their troops they were still stronger than both Blazing Flame Mountain and Yunxia Mountain Cities. However, due to the 5-year agreement, they could only leave troops at the border. This time was indeed the best chance for Gantian Mountain to fight back and win.

Consolidating his thoughts, a bright light appeared in Yang Shuixue’s eyes. This Gantian Mountain monster king was decisive!

Gexin’s expression also changed, he laughed coldly, “Ruler’s words, I will not change a single word and tell it all to my ruler, goodbye!”

Zhangzhe bent down expressionlessly, “Since we can’t agree, then there is no point for me to remain here! Oh right, my city lord Xiong Yu wants me to tell your highness something. He said that ex ruler Xiong Ba’s humiliation from giving up land and her lost arm, she will remember it in her heart, she would...”

He said to that point before he kept silent, only feeling an extremely cold killing intent strike him. It headed right for the depths of his mind like he just needed to say one more word and his head was going to fall to the ground.

His body feeling cold as he started to shiver. After a long while, Gexin was barely able to open his mouth, “One doesn’t kill the envoy even if both sides are at war. Is the ruler prepared to mercilessly kill the envoy?”

Zong Shou was delighted. This fellow was sharp-toothed. If this was another place, he would have killed that person with one sword. Just looking at him felt annoying. However, such a place wasn’t good for him to kill.

He waved his sleeves and just said, “Scram”. He was lazy to argue with such a person.

Gexin instantly felt a weight lifted off his chest. That the bone piercing killing intent had finally faded. He didn’t dare to continue his words, his footsteps were unstable as he walked out of the hall.

Kong Yao on the side found it amusing. Then, she shook her head, feeling more and more complicated about this monster king.

On one side she was respectful and impressed by his stubbornness and toughness. One one side she despised the way he did things.

He was too decisive and didn’t give any way back. If Gantian Mountain was stronger than them then it was okay. However, even before they disarmed their troops when they were at their most prosperous state, they couldn’t compare with the army of Thousand City Alliance.

Much less after these 3 sides joined hands, behind them also had the shadow of the Donglin Sects.

If it was the emperor he wouldn’t be so unintelligent. He would use a more experienced and exquisite method to handle the situation.

Yang Shuixue’s expression wasn’t as cool as before. He coldly looked at the person on the throne and spoke once more.

“Since the 2 of them have left then there is no point of me staying. Goodbye!”

Slightly bowing, he laughed coldly, “However ruler please think about this matter! Our Thousand City Alliance is to go against strong powers, we despise war and want to end this chaotic world. Our goal is for peace between the Donglin Cities which is why we are unwilling to start a war. However, if we have no choice then we won’t mind doing so. If the ruler is willing to return the land you swallowed up a year ago to Yunxia, Blazing Flame, and Taoyun City, our alliance can also accept Gantian Mountain. At that time ruler can become a deputy alliance leader. The grievances between ruler and the many Donglin sects can also end...”

Right as he said that he frowned and looked upwards, only to see Zong Shou yawn lazily. Following which Zong Shou looked down curiously.

“Didn’t you already say goodbye? Why haven’t you scrammed yet, I don’t have food for you here!”

Yang Shuixue laughed involuntarily, he didn’t stay any longer, turning around and heading outside of the hall.

Seeing the person step out, Zong Shou’s brows furrowed, deep in thought. Then, he probingly used true qi to copy Zhangzhe’s voice and ask softly.

“City lord?”

That Yang Shuixue didn’t think much, subconsciously acknowledging. Then, he was fixed to the spot.

A few breaths later he helplessly turned his head around, only to see a fox-like smile on Zong Shou’s face, he wanted to punch out at him.

“I am Yangfan! Longxiang City lord.”

Sighing out, Yangfan placed his hands behind his back, “How is ruler going to deal with me!”

Although his identity was revealed, his expression wasn’t really ugly. Instead, it was filled with a probing intent.

“How to deal with you?”

Zong Shou eyes smiled wide, “I haven’t thought about that yet. However, since Longxiang city lord treats my Gantian Mountain so well, personally coming here, then how about stay a few more days and let me be a good host?”

When Yangfan heard that he couldn’t help but burst out into a laugh like he heard an amusing joke. He couldn’t suppress it, his laugh getting louder and louder, shocking the entire side hall, the tiles above were also shaking.

“Haha! Funny! Funny! Since I dared to come here, how wouldn’t I be prepared? I think you don’t need to worry about being a good host.”

The moment that laughter stopped, a dark chill covered the center of his brows.

“Okay then! If I don’t try today, I won’t be satisfied. Hehe, city lord Zong should know that what you shouldn’t have done today was to identify me within this hall! The ancient people have said that in an extremely close space, a person is enough to go up against an entire country. If a person gets angry, within 5 steps I can make you bleed! City lord Zong and I are only separated with only 600 feet. I want to test whether or not I can take your life!”

Just as Zong Shou’s brows rose, Yangfan’s body exploded out. Following which a silver armored shadow suddenly charged out of the thick fog and struck towards the depths of the hall.

Looking closer, it wasn’t someone who was covered in armor. It was layers of silver talisman paper. On it drew blood-colored runes like blood vessels and meridians. Vast spiritual energy surged around the talisman patterns.

Although it was a paper person, the aura was no weaker than the grade 8 flood dragon he saw within the evil spirit moat not long ago.

A fist punching out, just the wind alone caused all the red Xuan wood chairs to burst into pieces.

Zong Ling frowned, raising his hand and a bright light flew out. It was a grade 6 spiritual artifact metal shield that blocked in front of the silver armored paper person.

However, in an instant it was broken into pieces by the fist! Zong Ling spat out a mouth of fresh blood, taking a few steps back.

The strong momentum of the silver armored paper person didn’t reduce by a little. Its flying speed was even faster than before.

Kong Yao frowned, pressing onto the sword by her waist. Just as she was hesitating whether or not to help, she saw that Zong Shou’s face was calm from start to finish, not panicking at all.

She calmed down and remembered that this monster king was the Dragon Shadow old man’s personal disciple one and a half years ago. How could he have no methods to save his life?

Gantian Mountain occupied 13 provinces and there was no way it didn’t have any strong experts.

This matter didn’t need an outsider like her to interfere. To be able to have an outcome here was a good thing for her duty.

Also pressing on his sword, Zong Shou’s gaze was totally cold, clear and chilly with no fluctuation at all.

The one origin sword that he had long not used silently entered the fire yin sword beside his body.

This sword had been growing in his soul. It wasn’t the sword embryo from before, inside it, there were dragon patterns that were flowing about.

Just as the silver armored paper man was a hundred feet in front of him, Zong Shou’s yin sword suddenly came out from its sheath.

His aura suddenly changed, becoming as stable as mountains and rivers, strong as the heaven and earth.

When the yellow-colored sword light sliced down, it brought about a slight wind that caused one’s heart to shake.

In the next instant, there was a sharp ‘clang’ sound. That vast sword energy directly split this silver armored paper man into 2!

However, following the explosion sound, ten over the lightning balls flew out.

“9 yin mother and son lightning? Hmm, so that was the case.”

Scoffing coldly, Zong Shou stabbed his sword back into his sheath. Following which he reached out with his hand and grabbed these ten over lightning balls. It caused these lightning balls which were about to explode to swiftly calm down.

At this moment Kong Yao’s mouth was agape. It wasn’t because Zong Shou’s sword technique and spells were shocking but because of the yellow sword energy.

Sword energy yellow in color, pure white dragon shadow, that was the energy of the saint king!
