Divine Brilliance

Chapter 798: Leaving The Cloud World

“Preposterous!”

When Zong Shou said these words, the green-robed Confucian chided.

“You are just the Ruler of a small barbaric country and you dare to threaten the Ruler like that? How rude! Do you want to start a war between both countries?”

He said coldly, “Jin Buhui is a subject of His Majesty, not to mention how he did everything willingly. Even if His Majesty ordered him to, he has to follow. Whether or not he dies is not up to you. Buhui is fighting for the people and serving the country, that is what our Confucianism says. Even if he dies, he will do so in a righteous way and obtain kindness. As his friend, you shouldn’t stop him!”

Killing intent rose up in Zong Shou’s heart. He took a look at him and then asked Zhongxuan, “Who is this old man?”

“Imperial Hanlin Academy Secretary, Zuoxin!”

Zhongxuan explained with a solemn expression, “He is one of the important Confucians in our Court who manages teachings. He is also the Imperial Examiner of Censor Jin.”

The so-called Imperial Examiner referred to how he was the tester during the Imperial Exams.

Zong Shou didn’t bother as he laughed, “So that’s the case! So I can just kill him here?”

His tone was filled with killing intent, it was extremely dark.

Zhongxuan and Zuoxin were both startled.

Zhongxuan reacted really quickly and shook his head, “Secretary Zuo is one of the candidates for Prime Minister. Saint Venerable Zhu Zi praises him a lot. Secretary is really straightforward and if his words offended you, I hope that you give me face and don’t blame him.”

If he was just a Great Gan Ruler, then naturally he didn’t need to bother and it wasn’t worth him doing that.

However, he had an End Realm behind him.

There were just 7 Saint Venerables in the Cloud World. Great Shang did have some strength to fight back but there was simply no need to have such a strong enemy.

Zong Shou alone wiped out dozens of Taoist Faction Sects which made them terrified.

At this moment, he was even stronger than them!

Zuoxin’s aura shuddered. He had never seen such a bold and arrogant person in his life.

To actually dare to threaten to kill him 2,000 miles away from the Imperial Capital!

If not for him being a Ruler of a Country, if he wasn’t a subject, he would immediately scold him for being a thief and a bandit!

Although Zong Shou’s killing intent locked onto him, Zuoxin didn’t fear anything. He laughed coldly, “It really is true what they say, that Ruler is violent. You can’t outspeak someone and so you want to kill him? Zuoxin is right here, if you want to kill me, then go ahead!”

Zong Shou held his breath. He really was helpless against such a person. He was totally speechless. That person thought he was right and didn’t fear death. If he attacked, then he would really be considered an evil demon.

He shook his head, “What words! In your eyes, a subject must die if the Ruler wants him to. However, to me, even a Ruler cannot decide who will die or live. If all subjects are like you, it really would be a sad thing for the Ruler. It is good for the people, but if one is being used, betrayed and ends up with their reputation destroyed, then it would be inappropriate. To kill people according to the intentions of the Heavens, haha...”

He was unwilling to argue with the old man and also didn’t allow him to retort. He stood up and looked at Zhongxuan, “Please bring back my words to Emperor Yuancheng! I always keep my words and never say things for no reason. Since I said that, I will definitely achieve it!”

After he said this, he flew into the air towards the demon shuttle that was hanging in mid-air.

Zuoxin’s face had turned green. He suddenly asked out in a loud voice, “Ruler, slow down! There is one thing I am curious about. I heard that your country’s rule has subjects taking control of politics and your power is controlled by the people, that you cannot make decisions on your own. Is that true? Why is that? I heard that you never bothered with politics in 3 years and have never attended the court assembly. You actually have time to bother with Great Shang. Aren’t you afraid of your country being wiped out?”

Zong Shou frowned. He originally wasn’t going to answer, but then his heart moved. Education talked about respect. He wanted to cause problems for this secretary as he laughed out, “It is true! I am too young and unwilling to bother with politics. Isn’t this reason enough? I want to do this, so what can you do? Are those nobles stronger and more worthy than others? At this moment, Great Shang is in chaos, there are people losing their homes and livelihoods. My Donglin, on the other hand, is a peaceful land. As a subject, you don’t reflect on yourself and actually dare to come and chide me?”

He couldn’t be bothered talking anymore and controlled the shuttle to charge out of the world.

Zuoxin still wanted to ask, but he couldn’t see Zong Shou’s anymore. His expression turned even uglier and he scoffed coldly, “This person is really as the rumors say, he is an unorthodox evil Ruler! Although he does things differently from Common People’s Path, they are really similar. There has to be a connection between the two. If His Majesty is able to calm down the Aristocratic Families, I will tell him to attack Donglin to wipe out this evil country. If they are left uncontrolled, one day it will affect us. I really don’t understand why those barbaric people would support such an evil demon?”

Zhongxuan frowned and didn’t speak. He was deep in thought.

Just now there was a moment when he actually couldn’t see through Zong Shou’s fate.

It was like he was looking at a white piece of paper, he wasn’t even able to notice a single mark.

There was obviously someone who was trying to cover the secrets of the Heavens. There was also a Magical Artifact suppressing. It must’ve been the necklace on his neck...

Although Dragon Shadow was strong and was a Saint Venerable, he didn’t have such ability.

The only possibility was Kong Rui.

That person who used to be the Imperial Astronomer of Great Shang, what did he want to cover?

He subconsciously felt that this matter was extremely important to Great Shang and him.

However, at this moment, he was unable to do anything about Zong Shou.

Could he still attack? Even if he didn’t bother with Dragon Shadow, if he didn’t enter the Imperial Capital, he didn’t have the confidence to keep him here. action

He couldn’t help but sigh. His Majesty chasing away Kong Rui and Kong Yao was the largest loss for Great Shang in these few years.

However, he had a huge part to play in that which made him feel really emotional.

※※※※

After exiting the Cloud World and coming to the World River, Zong Shou first distributed the Pill Recipes back to Gantian Mountain.

As expected, moments later Xuanyuan Yiren replied, her letter filled with joy. The words in the the talisman were pretty much incoherent.

Zong Shou’s lip curled when he read it. With these recipes sent back, she would probably spend months in the pill room.

He couldn’t help but feel a little worried about the baby in her stomach.

It seemed like after this, he had to send a letter to his parent-in-laws.

Only Xuanyuan Tong could control Xuanyuan Yiren when she was pill refining.

In the end, Yiren sent a message talisman which asked him to collect various Pill Recipes for her when he was in the outer region.

If there were even better ones when Zong Shou came back, she would serve him well. At that time, he could do whatever styles he wanted, allowing him to do anything. As long as he liked it, he could do anything he wanted.

Two streaks of blood dripped from his nose.

Any style? Allow me to do whatever I want?

Was this still Yiren? What nonsense is she speaking?

He couldn’t help but think wrongly in his head. Numerous interesting and fragrant scenes popped up in his heart.

He couldn’t help but sigh, when did Yiren become such a bad person?

She knew that he couldn’t return to the Cloud World, but decided to say that at such a time, to send such a heart-stirring and tempting talisman, was she trying to create problems?

Xuanyuan Yiren kept the talisman solemnly to be prepared to use it as proof in the future.

He started grinding his teeth. His girl was going to regret today sooner or later!

He waited in the void and as expected, moments later, he saw Shui Lingbo flying over.

The two of them didn’t have much to say to one another. After she handed those copies over, they separated once more.

As Shui Lingbo was about to speak, she stopped herself, looking at Zong Shou with a weird expression.

It was like she wanted to ask why he was able to obtain such permission to take all these copies away.

Of course, Zong Shou wouldn’t say that, not long ago, he found a full 100 Heaven Essence Life Creation Pills in the Qin Emperor Sub Tomb.

He didn’t doubt her, however, such a secretive matter was best kept among as few people as possible.

Those End Realm and Saint Realm people were all omnipotent and had indiscernible strength. Some of them cultivated special techniques and could deduce the past and look into Cause and Effect to see the future.

No one knew whether or not this place was safe and whether or not there were Saint Realm Spiritual Senses there.

There was too much at stake with this matter and thus, was extremely dangerous.

After sending her away, Zong Shou looked around.

With his cultivation, he couldn’t see through the entire world. He could only see the Spiritual Light in this dark and deep World River.

At this moment, he felt exceptionally lonely, like he was all by himself.

Then, he started laughing. Although he had left, Ruoshui would accompany him. There were also 6 Space Ship and 300,000 Great Gan troops who would follow beside him.

As time was of the essence, they hadn’t prepared everything. They would need a month to leave the Cloud World and would meet up with him later.

As for Ruoshui, she wasn’t at the Spirit Realm and couldn’t spend too long in the void. Even if Zong Shou had the shuttle, he might not be able to protect her.

It was safest for her to follow the Space Ships.

Keeping all the books, Zong Shou drove the God Shuttle and flew into the distance.

When he passed through two worlds, he felt his body relax.

Those few Spiritual Senses that were following him from within the Cloud World all retracted.

Zong Shou scoffed coldly and knew that if those few people didn’t personally see him leave, they wouldn’t be at ease.

Thinking about it, there was probably a huge battle for the tomb.

Just at this moment, a Spiritual Sense spread through the air from Mingyu.

There were just three short words: “I am fine.”

Zong Shou’s lips curled. With that, all the wars within the Cloud World had nothing to do with him.

He swiftly traveled, based on the records of the sect, heading to a cultivator bazaar not far away from here.
