624 Splashing Out Lavishly

Xuanyuan Yiren looked at Zong Shou whose face was ashen white, blood seeping from the corner of his lips.

She knew that it was only his soul that was weak and that he hadn’t suffered many injuries. At this moment he just needed some time to rest, but she still felt really heartache. Walking beside Zong Shou, she frowned as she helped him check his Meridians.

“I am fine!”

Zong Shou smiled and patted her little hands to calm her down. Following this, he looked toward the Ministers in a fake manner.

“Something unexpected happened which made all of you worried!”

Looking at the sky outside the hall, it was already in the dead of the night. Joy appeared in Zong Shou’s eyes for some reason, “However, all of you came here for another reason right? What was it?”

Although he spent dozens of days in the illusion, in actual time it had been just four or five days.

Xuanyuan Yiren was a responsible person, at most she would only let the three to five people who could help know about the Ruler being trapped by the Avici Throne. She definitely wouldn’t make it such that so many people found out.

There should be another reason why the other people came.

As for what it was, at this moment Zong Shou asked even though he knew.

Renbo raised his eyelids and sized up Zong Shou carefully. He mainly paid attention to the looks on Xuanyuan Yiren. Seeing that the Queen was sad but that her worry was lessening, he began to ease.

“Ruler’s health concerns the safety of our Gantian Mountain, you need to be really careful in the future! If any accidents happen to you, what face do all of us have to face the ex ruler?”

Actually, with the current Gantian Mountain system there wasn’t any difference between Zong Shou being there or not.

As long as these two people could help leave an heir or two for Gantian Mountain to inherit the throne, it was fine.

They also needed his Highness’s reputation and prestige to deal with the Spiritual Wave.

When all these matters end why would he even bother with this Zong Shou? He could run wherever he wanted and it wouldn’t matter.

Renbo wouldn’t allow himself to be carried away with these matters, every time things changed he would feel terrified and nervous.

Only Zong Shou and Xuanyuan Yiren were newlyweds and as it was said that they had been really diligent at night which was why it wasn’t apt for him to rush them.

At this moment, the people within the hall were looking toward him with anticipation. Renbo frowned before taking out an inventory.

“600 Grade-7 Energy-Destroying Crossbows, 48 Grade-9 Energy-Destroying Crossbows. If Kongqi Sect craft any Magical Bow Artifacts, we can purchase them too. The six space ships from the Xue Family also needs to be repaired, to change the spiritual formation, purchasing forty million kilograms of mysterious black iron, a million golden ocean pattern cinnabar to strengthen the body of the ship. Was this the inventory the Ruler sent to the cabinet five days ago?”

“That’s right!”

Zong Shou replied with no expression. He had observed those six space ships, the basic formations and core were still okay, able to pass through space freely, saving him much effort to rebuild it.

However, amongst the six space ships, apart from Xue Xuan’s ship which was where the Xue Family Members lived and thus was more complete, the other ships were in an unbearable condition.

Who knows for how many decades they hadn’t been repaired. The ship body was broken, close to falling apart. It was a miracle that it wasn’t totally destroyed by the Vast Spiritual Energy impacting it.

Apart from it, the Xue Family might have been trying to free space to fit more race people.

The outer shell of the ship was the same as thin paper. As long as one was a Grade-9 Cultivator, one would be able to break through with a stab.

The artifacts it was equipped with could be listed into the strong bow and crossbow range. It was far from enough to deal with the Spirit Realm and Celestial Realm Beasts moving about in the World River.

If it was him, he also wouldn’t dare to let this squadron continue to risk staying out in the World River.

This was why right away he was considering how to strengthen the equipment on these few space ships.

The Energy-Destroying Crossbows crafted by the Kong Qi Sect were naturally his first choice. Apart from the high consumption, its strength was not weak.

Fighting in the World River where Spiritual Energy was sufficient and abundant, it was the most suitable.

Actually if it wasn’t for him considering that the current Gantian Mountain was too poor, he would have changed it all to Magical Artifact Level Bow Artifacts which were the most ideal.

As for mysterious black iron, it was a Huang Level Grade-5 Spiritual Gold. Although its Grade was low, it was abundant. A thick layer, thirty to fifty-foot hull, along with Spiritual Formations, even Magical Artifact Grade weapons could not pierce through.

The ocean pattern cinnabar was a special spiritual material produced at the northern extreme lands. By itself, it could be easily crushed but when added to other spiritual metals it could cause the quality to rise by two to three grades.

However, these two things had one thing in common; they were very expensive! So expensive that it made one hurt. Even the current Gantian Mountain had to go all out, nearly going bankrupt before they could afford it.

Probably after these planned modifications were completed, one space ship could fit thirty thousand people.

They wouldn’t fear Spirit Realm Beasts. As for the Celestial Realm, with a suitable commander they could go around and flee.

However, this inventory probably made some people spit out blood.

As expected, in the next moment he heard the tooth grinding sound of that old man Renbo.

“Minister doesn’t know why the Ruler wants to purchase these items!”

His voice was filled with rage like he was forcefully suppressing himself to not argue with Zong Shou now. He took out another yellow scroll and placed it in front of him.

“Ruler has other orders: for our Donglin army to disarm and disband within half a month. All Grade-3 and above elites need to select the best and then change them to direct rule. This will cause our Gantian Mountain to expand to 400 army towns. Renbo doesn’t disapprove this but isn’t this number is too small?”

Zong Shou laughed when he heard this and took a look at everyone within the hall, “I guess all of you know about the Spiritual Wave matter?”

No one spoke, only silently acknowledging. It was because they knew that many space pillars were breaking due to the spiritual wave pressing down, alien races invading the Cloud World which was why they were worried that these numbers were too little.

It was more than enough to suppress Donglin Cloud Continent. However, to deal with other world alien races, it was far from enough.

“Within three years I will use 100,000 Grade-7 mind stones to purchase Cultivation Pills from Pill Fountain Sect and other Donglin Pill refiners.”

Everyone was startled, their eyes full of shock. Zong Shou laughed self-mockingly, “Let’s hope that within three years our Gantian Mountain rule will have 200,000 Xiantian…”

As for Spirit Masters whose cultivation conditions were even tougher, he didn’t ask for a lot, he just needed 30,000 and he would thank the heavens.

Actually Donglin Cloud Continent nearly had enough now.

However, Zong Shou didn’t dare to use most of them. They weren’t loyal to him and even if he did recruit them, they wouldn’t be able to help Gantian Mountain.

Renbo sucked in a deep breath and felt a chill down his spine.

Only now did he realize that Zong Shou was actually so fearful toward the Spiritual Wave as well as the Alien Races.
