Divine Brilliance

Tantian Mountain Zhengang Peak. When the information inside the message talisman was all sent into his mind, Renbo felt his brain explode. It was totally empty. After feeling lost for a moment, a huge amount of joy surged out from his chest. After feeling elated, his emotions surged again and he nearly fainted on the spot.

Looking around, only to see that within the hall including Xushu, everyone joining in the meeting was totally calm. He suppressed the joy of hearing Qiuwei’s big victory as they looked over with questioning expressions.

Renbo took in a deep breath and knew that these words still needed to be said. He only felt his tone being really unstable, “There has been news from Mysterious Cloud Mountain, Ruler has defeated three million Thousand City Alliance troops! Leading four thousand Iron Cavalry to step all over Mysterious Cloud spirit sect. The entire sect, from top to bottom, has been wiped out. No one survived! Then the third generation ancestor, Shenxiao, died in the hands of the Ruler!”

Within the meeting hall, it was a deathly silence. Everyone was filled with shock and sense of loss, they didn’t know what to do.

Some people came to their senses, looking over at Renbo like they were looking at mad people.

Thinking did this old prime minister go mad from being impacted too heavily by the news of that side? Or was did he treat his illusions as reality?

Defeating the three million troops of Thousand City Alliance, with Zong Yuan’s unparalleled general talents, that could barely be trusted.

But trampling over Mysterious Cloud spirit sect? That was really amusing…

Even if he wanted to calm down the hearts of everyone, there was no need to think of such preposterous news.

Their hearts were feeling more cold and sunken, afraid that the news back from Mysterious Cloud Mountain wasn’t good news.

Renbo had managed to calm himself down, shaking his head to himself, thinking that he knew the outcome would be like that.

After sighing, he stood up and didn’t explain anymore. He was also too lazy to deal with these people. He walked out in an unstable manner out of the hall. He seemed really out of sorts.

At this moment it was early in the morning, a bright sun was rising into the sky, its golden rays shining all over, extremely eye catching and majestic.

Renbo was fixed to the spot once more, looking stunned towards the sun.

Victory! A huge victory!

Donglin Cloud Continent can finally be unified today.

A scholar who had no path to take in the past had become in charge of a country. This destiny was really magical!

It seems like Gantian Mountain wasn’t far away from establishing a country…

Old friend, old friend, the thing you promised me had been achieved today!

Unfortunately, you aren’t here today. Only with such a father, there would be such a son. The talents of the ruler are no weaker than you.

In a short two years to cause Donglin to walk to such a stage, to even destroying Mysterious Cloud spirit sect…

He remembered that the Mysterious Cloud spirit sect third generation ancestor was at the peak of the God Realm. For him to actually die in the Ruler’s hand, that was really unbelievable!

All of a sudden, he was filled with a million thoughts. Xushu’s voice rang out once more, “Prime minister! Were your words previously true or not?”

Renbo came back to his senses once more and then gave a self-mocking laugh, “You all probably aren’t willing to believe and think that I, Renbo, have already gone crazy? Or that I was bluffing to all of you? When did my reputation and prestige fall to such a level? Have you ever seen me speak anything untrue?”

Xushu’s face turned slightly red, scolding out in his heart about him speaking untrue things. He remembered a few times ago that old man bluffed the Ruler to make him take out cash from his pockets without even blinking an eye. His face was as thick skinned as city walls.

Joy appeared in his heart. He knew that since Renbo said it, then this news was most probably 60% true!

As for the other 40%, he really can’t trust the character of this old man. People in politics were never honest men.

For example, he would always use underhanded means.

“I am also lazy to explain to all of you. On the side of Mysterious Cloud Mountain, at most in two to four hours, there will be news that comes back. What’s the point of hiding it from all of you now?”

Turning his head around, glancing at the hall, Renbo’s lips were filled a cold disdain, “To be so knowledgeable and skilled like you, it seems like without such a long time, in just a few minutes you would be able to get news. My Gantian Mountain will unify Donglin…”

After saying those words, Zong Shou immediately stopped, he travelled quickly down the mountain without saying a word.

He was really old and clumsy, at this moment was when Gantian mountain was going to attack, to conquer people everywhere.

They needed to expand the army. They needed grain, machines, and pills. They also needed messengers and envoys to send all around.

…It wasn’t to convince them. In Donglin Cloud Continent, there was already no one who had the right to let Gantian Mountain try to convince them. It was just purely to force those officials to surrender! They will die if they didn’t!

And also to stop the rebellion. More than twenty cities rebelled, there needed to be people to deal with them.

All of this needed him to take charge of the capital city to manage so where did he have time to bullshit with all these people?

At this moment Renbo received yet another message talisman. He thought that it was from Mysterious Cloud Mountain but after looking at it he broke into laughter.

“The Snow Lion race is a little unstable? There are signs of rebellion. This is already the twenty-eighth spot. Those clowns are really asking to die…”

What should have been a piece of extremely terrible news couldn’t shake his heart at all at this moment. Instead, he found it really amusing!

He always didn’t understand why Zong Shou would bring this Snow Lion race out from the Cloud Ocean and give them a city and land.

He was just too forgiving and magnanimous towards them. They really were a bunch of ambitious wolves that forgot about kindness and help…”

Right behind Renbo, Xushu frowned and didn’t speak. He really couldn’t judge whether or not what the old man said was true or false.

The news was really preposterous and too surprising. Pretty much like a fairytale that one really couldn’t believe.

However in his heart, for some reason, he started to believe him. Which means that their Gantian Mountain was about to unify Donglin Cloud Continent?

The moment such thought rose, tens of golden light descended from the distance. Two of them belonged to him.

Reaching out with his hand and wrapped them up into his sleeves. Before he even managed to read it carefully, he heard several exclamations from behind in the meeting hall which sounded out successively.

“It is real! Prime Minister Ren didn’t lie to us!”

“Ruler crushed the three million Thousand City Alliance troops on Mysterious Cloud Mountain. He had trampled all over the mountain…”

“Blood Cloud Cavalry? Where did such a dao soldier come from? To actually have such skill?”

“By using the pinnacle space formation to lock up hundreds of miles of land! The entire sect got wiped out. None of the Donglin Sect cultivators could escape. It seems like His Highness had been scheming this whole thing…”

“Haha! Funny, how funny! The Donglin Sects all had nefarious intentions, plotting against the Ruler but instead falling into Ruler’s trap! Ten thousand cultivators all dying on the peak of Mysterious Cloud Mountain! What a good death, I feel really delighted!”

“That Shenxiao really died on Mysterious Cloud Mountain peak! That was really inconceivable…”

“What is there to be surprised about? I have heard about the Blood Cloud Cavalry in the past. Ten thousand years ago, Wulie Country was invincible in the world. Thirty thousand iron cavalry wiped out sects and factions, who knows how many God Realm and Celestial Realm experts were killed! You all are really ignorant. When you return, you should flip through your books and you will naturally find out! If there are really four thousand Blood Cloud Cavalry, then not only Donglin Cloud Continent, even we can sweep a world! Even those shrines will have to be respectful towards us!”

The people in the hall instantly sucked in a deep breath, following which they were deep in discussions.

“It really is true?”

“I think it is fake, such words are really too exaggerated…”

“I seemed to have heard the name of Blood Cloud Cavalry in the past.”

“It seems like I really need to flip through the books.”

Xushu who was standing outside, his eyes flashed, following which his lips curled up.

Blood Cloud Cavalry? So that was the case! Ruler really kept it well…

He didn’t bother to look carefully at the two message talismans as he walked down the mountain.

What is fake can’t be made real, and what is real can’t be made fake…

They had really won this battle! It was a huge victory!

His heart had completely calmed down. Looking at the sun, for some reason he was filled with lofty ambitions.

He was also slightly curious. Someone like the Ruler, who knows what levels he would reach in the future?

Walking away for around tens of feet, dozens of people surpassed him.

Looking around to only see that they were the people who were listening in to the meeting. At this moment, they were all eagerly running down the mountain.

Xushu shook his head and roughly guessed what had happened. As expected, moments later when he was about to walk to the foot of the mountain, he heard the entire city was cheering out! A thunderous cheer all around the city!

His ears were filled with the joyous discussions of the on-duty guards.

“Victory! We really won! The Ruler won on Mysterious Cloud Mountain! I heard he wiped out the entire Mysterious Cloud spirit sect…”

Those guards whose cultivation wasn’t at the Xiantain level might not have known how prestigious and famous Mysterious Cloud spirit sect was in Donglin, but their voices were filled with happiness.

“That Xiong Yu seemed to have lost too! That woman is so funny, always wanting to go up against the Ruler. She wants to reclaim her lost land, I think that she is dreaming!”

“She even calls herself Princess Xuan Yu, a master of the art of war. In the west of Donglin, apart from His Highness and Zong Yuan, she is best at using troops. Now didn’t she fall in the hands of General Qiu? Twenty million troops and was crushed by the million from General Qiu, she isn’t fitting of her name!”

“I heard that Ruler had planned this matter in advance and convinced the Cloud Saint City ruler to join him. Rebelling at the front of the formation which was what caused the Thousand City Alliance to be crushed…”

“Did you hear? About how strong the ruler was on Mysterious Cloud Mountain? Each step he took, lightning wings spread thirty thousand feet, he killed a grade-9! I think the Ruler is God descending on earth!”

“The heavens bless us such that Gantian Mountain can be kept! Now we can finally be at ease! Hey, various brothers, do you all want to celebrate over at Piaoxiang City?”

Xushu was delighted since Zong Shou locked up Shili Lingxiang Ding, he moved all the brothels and some merchants over to the Satellite City ten miles away. Thus that place had the name of Piaoxiang City.

Thinking about that, he was also tempted.

“You still have the mood to celebrate now? At this moment, our Gantian will definitely sweep Donglin. It is when we earn merit. What we should worry about is not being chosen to join the army…”

“That’s right! There are still those rebels. It still isn’t a peaceful time yet.”

“Those people are really disgusting! It seems like the Ruler hadn’t killed enough people these few years!”

Xushu laughed and continued forwards, not listening on anymore. He hummed a tune, feeling really comfortable and carefree.

The situation settled, just some small ants making noise so why do they have to worry about that?
