Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales
When they left Xuan Mountain City, there were many more people following Zong Shou.
Not only the thousand mysterious armor wind dragon cavalry, but there were also 50 more carriages, 45 of which were the grains of the cavalry as well as their arrows and backup equipment, along with some of their personal belongings. They were also pulled by wind winged dragon beasts. its speed was really quick. Naturally, it wasn’t as comfortable and decorated as Zong Shou’s carriage, just the most simple transposition vehicle, its price ten times cheaper.
There were 5 which belonged to Zong Shou himself. There was one wine carriage whilst the other 4 were for books.
Xuan Mountain City also has its book depository, most of them were martial and spiritual cultivation books, some of which were lost in the future. Zong Shou viewed them as treasures, especially inviting a few spirit masters to use spells to copy them. During this free time after cultivation, he would take a look at one of the books.
They were rough and shallow spells and martial techniques, but he couldn’t underestimate them. There would be some spectacular portions which would inspire him.
Apart from which would be Xuanyuan Tong’s men. A full 3 thousand black-armored cavalries and also close to 200 carriages.
Although his Father in law didn’t have any ambition, he was an intelligent and decisive person. Zong Shou just needed some slight instruction and he didn’t hesitate, taking out a large half of beast crystals in the city for Zong Shou to take away.
Roughly 30 miles after they got out of the city, Hu Zhongyuan roared out, shaking several miles. In just a short moment, a group of cavalry swiftly arrived.
They were also riding on wind winged dragon beasts and also bringing a hundred carriages. There were only around 500 people, each of them looking strong as muscular. They were all from the iron tiger race.
Zong Shou’s understanding of the elite troops of Gantian Mountain was like the back of his fingertips. He knew that there were 3000 iron wolf halberd soldiers of the iron tiger race. However, they weren’t cavalry but heavy armored infantry.
Usually, when they rode on warhorses, they could gallop for a thousand miles a day. The moment they formed up into formation and wore 3 layer armor, wielding halberds, they were pretty much like a steel wall with its meatgrinder.
With 3 thousand armored soldiers, even Zong Weiran’s black fox iron cavalry wouldn’t dare to charge at them.
Above those hundred carriages were hundreds of talisman armor and Mo knives. Once the battle started, they could immediately equip themselves.
Seeing this bunch of iron tigers Mo knife soldiers, Tan Tao’s face turned green. These people quietly hid here. It seems like Hu Zhongyuan was defending against Xuan Mountain City. However, at this moment, there was nothing he could say.
Added together, a few thousand men and horses galloped like thunder. They rushed day and night, arriving at that Jiefu City a day later.
The reason why this city had a Fu word was that it was floating in mid-air. It was modified from giant boat wreckage from the cloud Seo late era. It was 200 thousand feed around and hung 3 thousand feet in the air.
Zong Shou didn’t come to this place in the game, but he had seen the ruins of the city in reality. Looking up, he didn’t pay much attention. Chuxue was slightly astonished. She had never seen such a floating city before.
The cloud ocean had magnetism, which was why the boat only needed a few suitable spiritual formations to be carved on it for it to float. But this giant boat that floated above the Cloud Continent tested the ability of those hidden sects.
At this moment, however, Zong Shou and Hu Zhongyuan paid more attention to the troops that were gathered nearby.
“2 thousand flame bear race maniac bear armored warriors. 2 thousand Yunxia Mountain tiger leopard cavalry. Hehe! Are the princes of Yunxia Mountain and Blazing Flame Mountain both here?”
Hu Zhongyuan smiled. A cold glow flashed across his eyes. Especially when he looked at those maniac bear armored soldiers, killing intent boiled in him. Those flame bear people also looked over in anger.
The iron tiger race’s iron tiger halberd warrior and these maniac bear armored warriors are all infantry. During these ten years, they had fought several times so naturally, they had a huge hatred for one another.
These 2 armies weren’t the only troops here. There were tens of thousands of armored soldiers, and one could even see some sky fox race people.
However, the most eye-catching one would be the elites belonging to Yunxia and Blazing Flame Mountain.
This Jiefu City was co-owned by a few major hidden sects of the Donglin Cloud Continent. Although Hu Zhongyuan had the intention of borrowing the strength of Xuan Mountain City to swallow it up, he didn’t dare to behave too arrogantly here. He could only scoff slightly and cover his killing intent.
There were so many people, and not all of them could go into the city. Only Zong Shou and a few of them could sit on boats and enter that floating city.
The moment he stepped in, Hu Zhongyuan was delighted, “Feng Yu and Blazing Flame Mountain’s Xiong Kui, these two came!”
Zong Shou followed his line of sight and looked across, only to see a group of people on both sides of the wooden corridor. The one on the left was thin, Yunxia Mountain’s king race wind leopard race was mostly like that. That should be Yunxia Mountain’s Feng Yu. As for the burly looking man, he was 4 times larger than him. It should be Blazing Flame Mountain’s prince Xiong Kui.
The latter looked over here with a slight interest whilst the former gazed coldly at the people around Zong Shou. When he saw Tan Tao, he frowned slightly and was about to turn around and leave.
Following which his eyes fixed on Zong Yuan, laughing coldly, “You broke through to martial ancestor, how lucky. I thought you would spend the rest of your life at peak xiantian.”
When Zong Shou heard that, he felt delighted. It was the first time he wasn’t the target of abuse, how rare.
Zong Yuan’s face instantly turned white.
“You were lucky last time to escape. I heard that you were injured for several months. Are you fully healed now? Next time on the battlefield, you won’t be so lucky. I’ll take your head. My room lacks a peeing flask. Even if you kneel like before and beg it would be useless.”
That Feng Yu thought of something when he said that, “I heard that you and your prince made a huge mess in Xuan Mountain City? So it seems like you changed sides? In the past, I thought you might not be skilled but you were smart. Now it seems like you’re just dumb. Sky wolf race, the once youngest talent, hehe…”
After he finished, he coldly looked at Zong Shou. He shot him a vicious look before leaving.
When that person left, Xiong Kui also laughed at Zong Yuan, “I didn’t expect you knelt during that battle? I’m not as sick as Feng Yu. If you kneel and beg me I will let you live!”
Zong Shou was shocked, kneeling for his life? What is happening? Looking at Hu Zhengyuan, the latter immediately understood and explained, “They are old enemies. Their ages are similar and are all seen as the 3 heroes of the west of Donglin. Before xiantian, they couldn’t be separated, after which Zong Yuan was left behind. 2 years ago, Zong Yuan was hit down by Feng Yu’s sword and knelt on the ground, unable to stand up. Although he didn’t beg, if the ruler didn’t send someone to save him, he would be dead now. This is also why his reputation fell and was then invited over by Zong Shi…”
Zong Shou acknowledged, thinking to himself that these 3 people had such animosity. No wonder Zong Yuan’s spear strength would have so many mistakes.
Although Hu Zhongyuan’s voice was soft, Zong Yuan could hear a little. His body was shivering with rage. His face flushed red, eyes filled with blood as his fists were tightly clenched. He only felt like his shame was hard to believe. He would rather pull out the spear and have a battle with the 2 of them once more.
However, he felt that not far away there was another person who looked coldly over. Zong Yuan immediately looked over, only to see the person have a pair of sky fox ears and looked familiar.
However, at this moment, the eyes which should be gentle and warm was filled with coldness and anger.
Zong Yuan could only feel his heart sink to the bottom, immersed in ice water, coldness spreading over his body.
Zong Shou was too lazy to care about him, directly finding the Sanlu Bank branch in the city.
The so-called Sanlu Bank was opened by the hidden sects. Speaking of which, they had some relationship with Lei Dong. Behind this Bank were the few sects under the Sword Sect. Wujue Villa was included within. As their business was only in The Central, south and Donglin continent which was why it was called Sanlu bank.
Only here, where they recognize his bloodline, and thus his finances, won’t end up being eyed and stolen by others.
The bank had high defensive measures, and even if one kidnaped or killed Zong Shou, they wouldn’t be able to get a single mind stone.
This was why no one thought to snatch his riches.
Once Zong Shou finally saw the list of all the items Zong Weiran left, he couldn’t help but suck in a deep breath.
There was indeed not much beast crystals and mind stones, only around ten thousand grade 3 and 4. This was around what Yin Yang told him.
However, this was just the spare cash Zong Weiran left for him.
On the list, the most eye-catching one was the line of words at the top. A full 57 grade 7 beasts crystals, 40 grade 7 soil stones, and 19 grade 6 mind stones!
There were 20 over spiritual weapons which were above grade 5.
There were hundreds of bottles of pills however Zong Weiran didn’t think he could cultivate which was why the pills he left were for spirit masters. From Spirit Cultivation to Day Wandering, all were present.
“F**k! Young master, my eyes must be playing tricks on me! 57 grade 7 beast crystals, 40 grade 7 soul stones. There are so many? How many times is this more than our Gantian Mountain income?”
Hu Zhongyuan looked on at the side, his eyes in a daze, “My head is a little dizzy, I can’t take this, why is the ruler so rich?”
Zong Yuan’s eyes lit up. If he didn’t know that he wouldn’t be able to get these items no matter what and that he couldn’t beat Zong Shou, he would even have the heart to kill Zong Shou and snatch the treasure.
Zong Shou suppressed his emotions, hiding his trembling hands in his sleeves. He then looked at Hu Zhongyuan in disdain, this fellow was disappointing. Shouting so much for such a small amount of money, lacking the temperament of an expert.
