Chapter 328: Chapter 328 Become my Subject and Break Your Arm

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

In front of 170 thousand elite armored soldiers, a giant bright yellow umbrella was raised. Below it was a large carriage. It wasn’t the one that Zong Shou had people craft for him recently but one he took from people nearby. However, it was still luxuriously decorated.

However, in front of this huge army formation, no matter what, it didn’t fit in.

Roughly 40 thousand feet in front was huge stone bases built up to 300 feet. One couldn’t see how thick it was or how many soldiers there were within. One only knew that there were many crossbows and bows were placed above, making one’s heart turn cold.

Logically speaking this 40 thousand foot was within the range of those eight-arm energy destroying crossbows.

However at this moment with Hu Qianqiu, Qiu Wei and the many other Xuanwu ancestor experts standing beside the golden umbrella, no one thought that these normal weapons could harm the person beneath it. It would just be a waste of arrows.

Zong Shou sat within the carriage, his hand holding onto a silk paper, his expression solemn.

On it wrote many names, this letter naturally came from Ruo Shui.

“As expected!”

Sighing slightly, Zong Shou placed the silk paper preciously into his heaven and earth-bag.

Ruo Shui had arranged many spies within Weining and Shende Provinces. They were either cleaned out or went missing or surrendered to the enemy. The scouts that Hu Zhongyuan sent from the army suffered heavy injuries. With just martial ancestor realm experts alone, the number of deaths reached a high number.

…With just the strength of Yunxia and Blazing Flame Mountain, it would be tough to achieve. It must be those sects who interfered who were able to create such a firm lockdown of information.

It blocked off all information of Huling Hill and interfered in the judgment of Hu Qianqiu and the others.

“After this matter ends, these people will get compensated…”

When Ruo Shui heard that, she immediately got down the soft mattress and kneeled solemnly towards Zong Shou. Her expression was surprisingly silent.

Zong Shou mocked himself, Zong Weiran didn’t have a single simple opponent.

So nearly was Feng Nu and Xiong Ba able to turn the tables.

Qiu Wei who was solemn waiting at the side seemed to know his thoughts, turning around his head and looking into the carriage, “The ruler doesn’t need to care so much. If you see more of this death and injury matters, you wouldn’t be so affected anymore, it is normal. In a chaotic time, it is like that. As for that Xiong Ba and Feng Nu, they are intelligent. As expected from mighty lords. However, as compared to you they aren’t much. In the end, both of them still lost to you.”

Zong Shou couldn’t help but laugh, he wasn’t feeling sad because of such small amounts of losses.

He just felt a little emotional about how difficult it was to conquer the world. With just one small piece of land, he had 2 opponents who were so difficult to handle. One can imagine how strong the other rulers in the 5 continents and 12 islands would be.

Who knows how that future god-emperor was able to unify the cloud world…

He should just focus and pay attention to cultivating and perfecting his sword path.

Hu Qianqiu seemed to get a little impatient as he waited, feeling slightly curious,” Ruler, you said that Feng Nu and Xiong Ba will take the initiative to find you, however, till now there were no signs of them. Are they tricking us? With their personalities, they definitely wouldn’t take the initiative to ask for peace unless they were in a dead-end.”

“Uncle Hu please don’t be impatient and wait a little more…”

Just as Zong Shou said that it stopped in his sentence. He looked afar behind those stone bases, where suddenly a group of people popped out. The leader was Feng Nu.

In just a moment another group of roughly 5 thousand cavalry also galloped over. The one in front whose body looked exceptionally majestic was Xiong Ba.

In a short moment, the 2 of them had merged and traveled over together towards Zong Shou’s carriage. They stopped roughly 20 thousand feet away, looking coldly and curiously over.

However, Zong Shou didn’t speak and just smiled over.

In the end Feng Nu couldn’t take it as he opened up,” Feng Nu is here to meet city lord Zong to seek peace. What is going to take for us to stop this war?”

“This war was started by you, so what do you say I should do?”

Zong Shou stood up, sizing up these 2 people. In the previous time on Psychic Island when they met he only had a hurried glance at them.

At this point, he was slightly interested and took a closer look.

In the future in the game, in the era when the god-emperor era began, these 2 people weren’t around anymore. He also had close to ten thousand years more knowledge than the two of them.

However, without a doubt, these 2 people were indeed strong foes. If he didn’t destroy their cloud ships it would be really difficult to obtain victory in a head-on battle.

Hu Qianqiu was at a loss. Feng Nu really could take the humiliation, really asking for peace. And a moment later a group of cavalry surged over and whispered a few words in his ear.

Hu Qianqiu laughed out loud, his voice shaking the heavens. So Zong Yuan had already arrived, he had just arrived on the battle formation. His attacks were just so sharp and clean.

Feng Nu glanced at him, his face dark and sunken before turning back to Zong Shou, “I will use gold to ask Lingyun Sect and Mysterious cloud spirit Sect to guarantee. We will give up Weining Province in exchange for a 5-year ceasefire. Within those 5 years, if anyone breaks it, the sects will join hands and strike. Is City lord Zong agreeable to that?”

Xiong Ba frowned a little, his face was filled with depression but he still opened up, “With Lingyun Sect guaranteeing then I can give up half of Shengde Province!”

Zong Shou didn’t give a reply, asking Qiu Wei at the side, “After my father disappeared both of them seem to have swallowed up 3 of my provinces? Apart from Weining, Shengde there was also Pingdao Province right? The 3 provinces that my father spent so much effort to take down was given to them for no reason. Wouldn’t I be unfilial?”

Light flashed in Qiu Wei’s eyes, “that’s right! That time you hadn’t returned, it is all our fault for being useless, the ruler doesn’t need to blame yourself…”

When Xiong Ba heard that flames instantly burst out from his eyes, his right hand holding onto an ax as the horse moved several steps ahead,”f*** you, I give you an inch and you want afoot. I give you face but you don’t want it. Do you think I am afraid of you? Do you think you are invincible and unstoppable? If you want to take back the 3 provinces, you can’t unless I am dead! If you want to fight, even if I am bound to lose, I will clear out your Gantian Mountain people!”

Qiu Wei stared out aggressively as he moved his horse forwards, blocking in front of Zong Shou, exchanging cold stares with Xiong Ba.

Coincidentally at that moment, a person in the horizon charged over. It descended between the 2 army formations and when the light slowly dissipated, a green robbed teen appeared in front of everyone.

“I am Mysterious Cloud Sect Han Nishui, I greet everyone!”

His voice was clear and spread across tens of miles around. Han Nishui looked right at Zong Shou, “I came on orders from my teacher to represent the sects of the cloud continent to persuade the few of you to stop and came here for a guarantor contract. War is heartless so can you 3 sides pity the common people and stop this war matter as soon as possible.”

Zong Shou was also sizing up that person. He had heard his name many times but this was the 1st time they had met.

He was, in fact, an exceptional person, his cultivation was at the day wandering realm, his foundations were far above same grade spirit masters and even no weaker than that Long Ruo.

When Han Nishui looked at Zong Shou he had no reaction at all, his gaze was cold before he spoke once more, “I see that although Gantian Mountain has the advantage. However, Yunxia and Blazing Flame mountain can still defend. Let me be the guarantor for both Feng Nu and Xiong Ba to give up Weining and Shengde Province to Gantian, the contract will last for 5 years. Will the ruler give me face and stop this war?”

That Xiong Ba was unwilling, he wanted to speak but he stopped in his words, forcefully suppressing it.

Zong Shou kept silent for a while, just as that Han Nishui smiled, he still opened up, laughing coldly, “Give you face? Who are you even? You dare to interfere in my Gantian Mountain war matters?”

The moment he said that everyone was startled, looking at a loss towards Zong Shou, their faces filled with disbelief.

Even Hu Qianqiu and Qiu Wei were the same. They nearly thought that Zong Shou was going to agree to that.

Even Han Nishui’s eyes constricted, not knowing how to react.

Zong Shou pulled out the lightning winged sword by his waist, casually throwing it. It spun and stuck in front of Feng Nu and Xiong Ba.

“If the 2 of you want a ceasefire, spit out all that you ate from Gantian Mountain! Then each of you will give out half a province. I give you 2 choices, either surrender and be my subordinate or break an arm to apologize, choose for yourself!”

Xiong Ba was startled once more, following which he burst out laughing, “I think you are crazy!”

Even that Feng Nu looked at Zong Shou with a mocking expression. Did this kid lose his mind?

Their Yunxia Mountain has indeed suffered heavy losses this time but it was far from being at a dead end. If they went all out they were still able to protect their empire.

To ask them to break their arms and become subordinates, this Zong Shou lost his mind.

Han Nishui’s eyes were cold as he stared at Zong Shou, “I will remember this humiliation. I just hope you won’t go too overboard…”

Zong Shou didn’t reply to him, looking expressionlessly into the distance. Following which his eyes jumped slightly and then he smiled slightly. This Heli’s speed was much faster than he had expected.

“There is smoke! Feng City lord aren’t you going to go back to take a look?”

Feng Nu didn’t understand at first, turning around and taking a look, a ball of smoke had suddenly risen in the southwest direction.

His expression changed greatly, “It’s Gushan City?”

“Yes! I ordered a person to burn down that place. Does City Lord Feng feel heart pained?”

Zong Shou nodded and then asked Hu Qianqiu, “Uncle Hu how long does admiral Gu’s fleet need to enter He River?”

Hu Zhongyuan’s face lit up as he cupped his fist, “I will rush him, just 2 days approximately…”

There wasn’t any magnetic repulsion force on the cloud continent so cloud ships were unable to travel on land. However, they just needed some slight modifications to the spiritual formations and those cloud ships could travel in the rivers.

Gantian Mountain could easily gather up thousands of cloud ships and lock down the entire He River.

They could even crush all the cities by the river.

Feng Nu’s expression changed once more and there was no blood color left on it. Xiong Ba was at a total loss, his face green as he kept silent.

After a long while, Feng Nu opened his mouth once more, “I can swallow up all the land we ate, but to make me, Feng Nu, be your subordinate, that is impossible!”
